I suggested this in another thread and it seems like people thought it was a good idea, so here goes.
If Jill really cannot do the Christmas special for whatever reason, then Darren ought to be paired with a US contestant or other, as he is champion of champions and really deserves the right to defend his title. They have paired Brenday with a US contestant he has not danced with before, and will be pairing one of the female professionals with a male US contestant, so why not Darren?
I do hope someone at the BBC thinks of this, and it is really only fair to have Darren in the programme. What do you all think?
