We've had which pro dancers we would like to go but which of the previous dancers would you like to see back?
I would like to see Darren and Lilia Bennett back (if they can find a babysitter) as well as Erin.

Aliona, Lilia and Iveta (unlikely for all three though)

Matthew Cutler, Ian Waite and Flavia - all three were brilliant pros, and I think they are missed (Matthew and Ian with their latin dances especially - there's so few pro men with strong latins now). In addition, either of Matt and Ian would mean older female celebs actually had a choice of pro, rather than getting stuck eternally with Anton!

I think a lot of the earlier pros wouldn't fit well into the show anymore, so unless the show would go back to it's earlier style, I don't think it would be a good idea.

I would like to see Aliona and Iveta back, wouldn't mind Artem or Gleb either. We need Vincent back for the short women, too!

I think that's a little unfair - after all, it's not like Anton and Brendan are uniquely able to move with the times and adapt their earlier routines to what is expected now. Sure, the expectation of what pros do these days - which is far more dictated by the production team than it once was - may not be a draw for some dancers to come back, but I think others would happily work within the newer parameters, and still produce some really strong dances. In fact, due to the fact that far fewer celebs are trying to do Strictly at the same time as really unforgiving day jobs, I think the pros these days have a far easier time in getting enough rehearsal time with their celebs.

Ian
Iveta
Aliona
Tristan
Gleb

Some of the others I don't mind either way like Kristina, Robin, Darren and Lillia.

I was never a fan of Erin, Vincent or Flavia,

I think the female pro lineup is very strong at the moment - I'n looking forward to see more of them next year and don't really feel the need to have some of my old favourites back.

The males have been weak this year for me. Kevin and Anton stood out, all the others were disappointing. I'd like Trent back, and either Artem or Gleb (not both of them - that would be too much avantgarde and rule breaking, I think).

Tristan definitely! Loved his tell-it-like-it-is attitude about the show. Him and Jamelia were hilarious putting the show to rights on ITT after the whole Peter Jive situation.

Iveta and Aliona are the first to come to mind, I always enjoyed watching them

I don't remember the guys as much but I liked Artem's AS for Holly Valance
