What does everyone think to their chances? I'm hoping he winds and there is already a group on facebook for him to win!

I'd like to see him dance first before I bet on him - I wouldn'r dare make predictions before watching the first show. Expectations always change. Good luck to him though - I hope he does well. I'd like to see Camilla in the final and win for once.

Have high hopes of this pairing. I would really love to see Camilla get to the final (with Ian as the other finalist, of course!)

I agree with FT (but then I usually do). Camilla deserves to do well, heres hoping Gethin might get her to the final at last.

Wouldn't be able to decide between her and Ian if he were there as well though, he's come so close twice.

Gethin is doing pretty well on betting sites btw

I also don't like making predictions before seeing a couple dance but I think there is potential here. I'd also like to see Camilla reaching the final this time!

Purely for the "shallow" totty value, Gethin looks good! Not sure how he will look on the dance floor, but am looking forward to it!

I like Camilla and its a shame she and Ray were booted off so early last year. It would be good to see her get a lot further this year. Have to confess though that I know next to nothing about Gethin!

I would dearly love to see Camilia win SCD

So would I, Camilla is a lovely dancer, and very gracious with it.

PM for you DF

And I know less than that! Haven't seen Blue Peter since I were a nipper, with Get Down, Shep!

Still, the pic looks good of him and Camilla together!

Me too She sooooo deserves it !!!

That made me laugh! I always found Blue Peter a bit too 'goody two shoes' and had no interest in making things out of loo rolls.

This is going to age me but the only time I can remember watching it was in the days of Janet Ellis and Caron Keating, because they were 'cool'. I remember being very miffed when Janet Ellis was given the boot.

Ooh wandered off topic a bit there. Sort of

It would be lovely for Camilla to do well. Especially since she was knocked out quite early last year when they didn't deserve to be (in my opinion!) Let's hope Gethin does well on the first night, then we can really think about how well they might do.

Camilla is appearing in our local shopping centre, Gethin is mentioned but it doesnt actually say he will be there.

The advert was small and brief, it is in connection with the Macmillan Great Big coffee morning. It says she will be demonstrating some moves.

Camilla is connected a bit to Macmillan in this area as she appeared, with Ian at the Charity Ball dreamed up by EJ which was mega successful and raised 37K for the charity. Camilla got Anton and Erin involved as well, she is brilliant at that sort of thing.

Will not be able to see her myself as am at uni but I am sure EJ will be there. EJ has a broken ankle so was unable to help with the Coffee morning this year, but expect she will go and give me a full report.

I honestly don't know who Gethin is (I lived in Canada for 20+ years) but I do hope he does well. Camilla has managed to get the best out of her previous partners, including the very-tanned Dickinson guy, and I thought last year she might have made it to the final. Let's hope this year she does get there although I must confess, I would like to see her come second as I would really love Ian to win.

It would be great though if both Ian and Camilla have partners that surprise us and do very well -- fingers crossed.

Can't wait to see these two together, considering I said they'd dance together before it was even announced!

I thought they looked great tonight. Camilla was clearly v pleased with her partner when she met him.

I think the Blue Peter vote will be very healthy.

I think they're so well suited, they seem to get on fantastically.

I really have got everything crossed for them, I so want her to do well this year.

I also would love to see Camilla in the final, and possibly win!
She so deserves it, especially after the shock of last year. A Camilla/Ian final, please? Possibly with a bit of Anton, Matt or Darren? That would be AMAZING.

Hi Boagie! I agree wholeheartedly with every sentiment.

A Camilla final with Camilla winning is what I want to see !!! About time !!!

Don't forget to watch / record Blue Peter tomorrow ( Weds) at 5pm to see footage of them training !

Not actually a huge fan of Camilla per se.

But I am Welsh and from Cardiff , watched BP and Gehtin is looking Good , in many ways .

Gethin wasn't so much training, as naked. And getting a spray-tan.

In my day Blue Peter did things with egg boxes. How times have changed!

Hi SB!
It's rare for me to be out of Planet Waite...
But yes, that would be my ideal final, pretty unlikely but let's think positive!

Fern;
What could you possibly make with an egg box?
Oh, BPs looking a bit dodgey these days, if you ask me...
Still their training looked good...I think.

I think they looked really good together.

And I swear Blue Peter gets smuttier by the day...
