Fantastic lineup very pleased that we have two Olympians as contestants really like both Greg and Claudia
Well, I think this thread's well and truly done. It might be my favourite ever line-up on paper.
I think its a strong line up.

However,

Claudia / Melvin / Daisy will struggle for votes I feel.
Agree, strong line up, two recent Oylimpics sport contestants,

This thread was wrong, very very wrong, not a lame duck here.

There is one poster at this time on " The ratings thread" slagging the celebrities off" I have requested they post here to see the response.

1. a slobby mess ex mp.
2. a faded reality singer.
3. I have no idea who she is without using google
4. I have no idea who he or she is without using google.
5. I have no idea who he is without using google.
6..No problems with her as a participant.
7. Barrel scraping at its best as its from Hollyoaks and i have no idea who he is.
8.I have no idea who she is without using google.
9. No problems with her as a participant.
10. No problems with her as a participant.
11.I have no idea who she is without using google.
12.. Clear case of barrel scraping, flavour on the moment for five minutes now irrelevant.
13. No problems with him as a participant.
14. Barrel scraping to appeal to the Eastenders demographic.
15.Barrel scraping to appeal to no one in particular.

Thats not a ratings winning lineup, thats Saturday night tv hell, one bad lineup and its all downhill from here on in. SCD has peaked so the decline has to happen now.

The line up is being praised online. What a vile post though.

I would be honoured to know people like that are not watching the show <333

Now , finally, we have all the names it's.



Brilliant!
Well, I think this thread's well and truly done. It might be my favourite ever line-up on paper.
I also think it's absolutely brilliant and yes, on paper, best line up ever. I honestly don't remember getting this excited about a line up since the show started.

And if there was ever a thread that is looking beyond silly now, is this one...

Hard to remember surname, don't know him. I like Lesley, Robert Rinder and Tameka.
Not so sure about Greg, I'm in a minority. He bugs me.

Yep! Gonna have to go against the OP. Now that all the names have been revealed I also think SCD 2016 could be one of the best series yet.

Here's my verdict. Don't try and argue with me, it's my OWN opinion.

Tameka: Eastenders, good addition, can't see her being amazing though..
Greg: Athlete, good addition.
Lesley: She won't make it far, but i like her.
Judge Rinder: Nope, can't stand him.
Claudia: Athlete, not very well known but i think she'll be good.
Anastacia: American singer, good addition.
Naga: Don't really know
Daisy Lowe: Going with Big Brother's tactics of getting models. Worked for playboy, surprising for such a 'family friendly' show but she'll be good at dancing.
Danny Mac: Hollyoaks, kinda needed it considering he's done nothing for almost 2 years.
Louise: Don't know her.
Melvin Odoom: Axed Xtra Factor presenter, he's good at dancing but turned into a joke act.
Ore Oduba; No idea who he is.
Laura Whitmore: Don't really like her, comes across fake but can see her doing well.
Will Young: Looking at social media, he'll probably win.
Ed Balls: A lot of people dislike him, he'll be another joke act.

I guess the lineup is good, nothing amazing though. Certainly don't think it's the 'best ever' - most of them are from news/media and ITV. I'll probably tune into the first episode and see how it is.

Sort of agree with the above, but Greg and Naga bug me. Not a fan of them.

No idea who Melvin and Danny are. Don't mind Rinder being in as long as he isn't another Julian McDonald.

Well, I called it right.
This must be the poorest SCD line up in terms of star quality of them all.
The 2 Olympians are B listers...hardly Trott or Kenny or Whitlock or even Louis smith.
Most of them are 'who are theys?' or past their 'prime', whatever that was..
NOW OF COURSE SOME OF THEM will be able to dance, some of them will make us laugh, they always do....but that doesn't mean that the initial line up isn't pants star-quality wise.
One more thing...by the beginning of October, most of you will want HALF of this lot gone already!!
Mark my words...

Greg is hardly b-list. Olympic Gold in 2012, World Champion 2015, Commonwealth Champion 2014 and European Champion in 2014 and 2016.

You do know Louis Smith has won SCD? Why would he be invited to do it again?

You always get a few 'who are they' so what, as long as they try and make the show enjoyable who cares.

Most of the posters on the Strictly forum do not want half the dancers out within 3 weeks, this is the Strictly forum not x-factor or BB.

Greg is hardly B-List. At the very least most will recognise him as 'the ginger one' from Super Saturday if even if they couldn't remember the name.

It's a very strong line-up and a good mix. Of course not everyone will know all the names but that's always the case and there's none where I wonder why they were cast.

Have to say I'm interested in how Ed Balls does - he is very much the wildcard in the competition. I'm not expecting him to be great but I don't think think he'll be a joke contestant either. Certainly can see him giving it more welly than some of the other politicians who've appeared on the show.

Obviously anyone can like or dislike any line-up they like, but claiming that this line-up is more full of has-beens or b-listers than any other is just not factually accurate.
