Yep I'm sold on this line up now. Really wasn't too impressed at the start, but as usual once the line up comes full circle and we see the full mix, I'm really excited for the show now!

They always deliver in the end <3 (apart from 2013)

Pleased about Greg... hopefully partnered with Natalie? (we can hope) Height wise looks like they would be a good match. Not sure how long Lesley Joseph will do tho.

I'm happy with the line up, a good mix. Expected a couple of Olympians but not Greg, really pleased he's in there - hope he gets Natalie as his pro dancer

I think he'll be another Thom Evans - and no dance experience which might hold him back.

Pleased with most of the line up actually. I'd lose Judge Rinder, Laura Whitmore and Ed Balls for me to call it a very good line-up.

Hopefully he'll be with Natalie who's an awesome teacher

Very happy to see the adorable Greg Rutherford has signed up.

Not surprised about Tameka Empson, who was mooted to feature before, and it's Strictly law that an Enders actor must feature in any line up (bar the 2013 series)

No Tomasz Schafernacker, once again

Greg to win!

(The Strictly glitter ball is almost as good as an Olympic gold).

Isn't he tall! You don't notice it when he's long jumping as he's on his own. He made Kielty look tiny.

I remember that episode because it was so hilarious - everything went wrong for her and the other contestants were in fits of laughter. The ' slow cooked lamb ' coming out of the oven raw after 4 hours was priceless.

TAMEKA!!!!!!! Yes, yes, yes, yes yes!!!!!!!!!! More than makes up for today's earlier announcement.!!!!!!

Am made up that Lesley is in too. Don't know anything about Greg so will watch his journey sans bias.

TAMEKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She'll be 71 in October! I'd never have guessed.

I am so stunned that Greg and Tameka were the last two, such a great line up the years with even numbers always seem to have the best line ups!

Gonna be a great series how exciting.

Oh yes, perhaps she is pregnant again or something.

Hopefully Lesley will get Anton so none of the others are stuck with him. Unless Kevin gets her, she did say she wants him and he has always had potential winners so far.

Looking forward to Greg, poor bloke he had to jump in Rio while worrying about Strictly. Only joking I'm sure he didn't let that distract him.

Neither would I, to me she looks around or if not, a little bit younger than 50.

However, I can't see her doing too well technically but I am CERTAIN she will do better than a CERTAIN EX-POLITICIAN who danced with A DuBeke.

I was really underwhelmed for a while after a strong start, but I think today's names have massively improved the final lineup - there's quite a bit more variety than I was expecting now. The cast is still very young overall, but it could make for an interesting contest!

I still think that presenters are over-represented, and am a bit concerned the olympians will get loads of votes regardless of ability and potentially stop better dancers from making the final - but overall I'm pretty happy.

And no disgusting trollops from Geordie Shore either.

Maybe we could crowdfund an award at the "PR of the Year" awards for:
"laziest PR campaign of the year, relying on heavily promoting completely unsuitable minor celebrities as potential Strictly contestants, in order to shill some other tat."
