Yes it would spoil it, and you will probably be banned if you do it

What I was hoping was that anyone who is a mole could post in another thread to explain that "Pro X and Pro Y" were not allocated partners. That way my girlfriend and I can try and predict the pairings before the night of the launch show using the knowledge of which two professionals are sitting out, but not knowing to whom the other fifteen professionals have been allocated. If that information was to be posted in this thread, then in order to read it there is a chance I will see the confirmed pairings, which is not what I want. It is just because it has not yet been confirmed which professionals will not get partners that i was asking; but if it can't be done or would cause issues, then forget it. |

Same. Anton is a cannon ball anchor chained to a celebs feet.
He is not good enough to be a pro anymore and is suited to comedy contestants. Fans could argue different but he does not even compete to the level of Pasha / Brendan. Katie was good last year but undoubtably was pulled back by Anton, even if Katie was never going to win regardless. Quote:

Yep. Anastacia is my favourite from the line up. Don't want her chance blown before it's even begun. No hope with Anton.
I will PM you the two pros sitting out, if you'd like? ![]() |

At idea when the spoiler will be out with the pairings? I know who the 2 pros are who haven't got partners as its common knowledge in the dancing world!

Neil will be happy to do choreography and stand in in case of injury but apparently Chloe is spitting feathers as she gave up her amateur status for Strictly and then doesn't have a partner.

But surely that will have been made clear to her at the time of signing up? If not that she was definitely without a partner but at least that she was one of the pros in the balance? I presume that Neil signed up on that basis and that for AJ and Chloe it was left open, to be confirmed either way once it was confirmed whether the 15th celeb was male or female. So I'd be surprised if she hadn't been able to make an informed decision
Edit: No thanks to the DS search function I bring you this ![]() Quote:
The fact that at this point the pros have known for a good while their status regarding celebrities, it does not translate into having that information at the time of signing. Like I said before, the more established pros have the advantage and they are automatically assumed to get a celebrity, specially those who have been doing well in past series. First they sign a contract, then things start to develop and later on they find out if they will get a celebrity or not. A contract does not guarantee the pro that he/she will be paired with a celebrity, it only confirms their participation on strictly.
The celebrities mold the show and not the other way around. Last edited by aggs : 31-08-2016 at 08:40. Reason: Edited for quote |

He is so past his sale by date he is now a fossil

It's a bit embarrassing for Chloe to be just doing group dances and act as a reserve when AJ will be dancing in the main show. |

Agreed. All of the above. I am bewildered that he is even involved. Why?

If they were really serious about getting Anton or Brendan to take over from Len, then this year would have been a good year to test them out on ITT and small stints on the main Strictly show talking about the performances. (Don't particularly want either of them to do the job, as I think there are far better and more imaginative options, but career planning and all that!)
Re Chloe and Neil: Neil is already professional and so his status is unchanged. I feel a bit sorry for Chloe but she knew it was a risk. Tbh, I am mystified as to why Neil would be happy to do such a low key job, given that as an ex Word Champion he must have lots of other options and he probably had to put other engagements on ice whilst he was waiting for confirmation of his role on Strictly. Unless of course, he specifically signed up to do the choreography because that is what he enjoys (as opposed to that being the best offer he could get) because it is quite an influential role. Also I guess it gives him more time to do other things like lectures, adjudication and continuing his teaching exams. |
