He could still come back...hopefully if he's asked. But it seems most of the professionals from last year are returning.

It certainly does seem that way. It would be nice to have new blood though.

I want Matthew back!! Or I'll cry.

Yes, I would also definitely like Matthew to return. He was my favourite professional to take part in the last series so it was such a shame to see him go out so early on.

HOw do you know? lol!!

He sang "Home" by Michael Buble' to me!

lol very cool answer!

Thanks!

Nothing like a meeting someone in person to corroborate your story eh, DancingPixie?

I want to see Hazel Newberry come back, although I think it highly unlikely that she will. Like Matthew, she wasn't given a chance to shine in her specialist field ie. Ballroom. Matthew only got to dance the Waltz with Siobhan and Hazel only danced the Cha Cha with Quentin Willson. Having Hazel return would redress the lack of balance between Ballroom professionals and Latin professionals.

I am very pleased to hear though that Matthew Cutler may well be returning. He is fantastic in both disciplines, but as Latin is his speciality I would love to see him put a celebrity through her paces in Latin dances - especially the Jive and Paso Doble as seen from his performances in the series three professional demonstrations. Having talked to Robin Sewell, Nicole Cutler's professional dance partner, at the start of April I understand that Nicole is definitely interested in making a return to the programme. I'd love to see her.

I don't think that Karen Hardy or Hanna Kartunnen are likely to come back, sadly. They're the ones I most identified with due to their brilliant contribution to the Strictly series, charismatic personalities and memorable choreography.

Regardless of who does return and who doesn't, I just can't wait to see some more surprises from a new series of Strictly.

Wish karen would, she made a great addition last year! and i loved her partnership with brendan!!

So did I they were the best pro couple last year

they were, all this talk about Karen not doing SCD anymore is making me

Matthew must come back next series

Is brendan deffently doing series4 ?

well Karen did say we should all vote for him. I think the chance is very big that he will be back, same goes for several of the others who are always there

I will centraly vote for him are karren and brenan good mates ?

I should think that they are, Karen having said that... and Welshbabe, you're not alone!

I'll be adding to the phone bill myself, just like I did last year and the year before! Luckily I pay it myself... nobody to have a go at me for it!

They seem to be, there are photos of him holding Karen's newly born son

I also hope Matthew returns along with, Hanna Karttunan, Erin,Anton,Ian,Darren,Lilia and Camilla, I don't think the show would be the same without Brendan. I'm glad he's coming back

In a few days we'll be nearer the start of the new series than the end of the last one!(does this make sense!)

I have seen the photo it is so cute

They are the ones I want back as well

I just use my moble to vote

Karen really said that??

For some reason my network has barred calls to premium rate numbers... well, I think that's what they are - the main thing is I can't get through!
