Whats this i hear about them dancing together? at SCD Sports Relief, are they not partnered up with professional dancers?

Anyways i think they will be good together

I believe Sports Relief will be sportsmen/women from the different series partnered with another celeb for the show.

They must be having training from some of the professionals, but they will not be dancing in the competition.

Here are details from the SCD Sports Relief webpage.

As far as I understand things, the ex-SCD celebs will be taking the "pro" role with some help from their SCD pro partners.

Id love it if they had a show where they paired celebs up who had both appeared on scd for example Darren Gough and Jill, Mark with Alesha, Matt D with Louisa etc..
We could see how much they've really learnt lol.

That would be good, would have to put Jill with Mark though, since they're both more into the latin! Darren could do ballroom with Alesha.

Jill & Mark - my two favourites - magic

I bet they'd do a great Paso- I think they both did good Pasos in their series, but Jill's was overshadowed by her Jive, and Mark's by his Salsa!

Darren and Alesha could do a Waltz. And I bet Colin and Denise would dance well together- they could do an amazing quickstep.

Ditto

Yep good point. Darren and alesha would probably do a good waltz or quickstep.
However i think the height difference between Alesha and Darren might make them look weird together. Is he not quite small?

Maybe Matt Dawson or Gethin with Alesha.
Then Darren with Emma bunton or someone small.

Darren is 5'11 according to Wikipedia (I think he looks shorter because he is, as wiki puts it, "broad in beam" ) so assuming that is right, I think it could be doable, but they might end up quite similar because Alesha is quite tall (5'9?) + heels. Assuming wiki is right of course... Not sure. They would do a wicked QS though I'd imagine - how tall is Colin?

That said I really just want to see Alesha dancing with Matt because I loved their partnership *grin*

5'11
Ive heard the camera puts on 10 pounds but didn't realise it made you shrink as well
It probably is just because hes fairly big built.
But yes Alesha and Matt are a perfect partnership I just thought a one off with some of the celebs would be funny.

It would be funny, I just don't want to think about their partnership having finished

Well, he is a fast bowler so he'd need some height! I think "broad in t'beam" is about right *grin*

For some reason I always wanted to see Matt D and Letitia dance together.

I had a look at the Cricinfoengland site and it says that Darren Gough IS 5'11" and that Ramps is 5'10"! I would have thought Darren would be over 6' I am surprised.

Lennie - would love to see J&M perform the A' Tango together

I'd go with these choices - they've had similar training techniques with Darren and Lillia so should work together nicely.

Yes seen him and he's not that tall - I thought he would be too!

I like the concept of this, cant wait to see

Sounds intersting it will be good to see how it works

I saw a glimpse of them performing yesterday, when the Sports Relief advert came on just before EE

There's a photo of them in the back of What's On TV in their dance outfits too.

Slighty OT from Ramps - but Matt Dawson is doing a tango with Elaine Paige. He was on Something For The Weekend on Sunday.

I thought they were good together - i liked it

I would like to see mark & alesha do a latin dance!
