If the rumours are true that he's going to do Strictly then I'm thrilled!! He is definatly a potential winner, watch this...

(Hope its ok to post this here)

Oh, and he's gorgeous and seems like a really nice guy too which helps!

Goodness me, he's going to have to do a lot to convince people he should win when he already dances like that! Although in the past men having dance experience has gone more or less unnoticed...

If he does standout performances it won't matter, but I think sometimes people with a bit of experience seem to get slightly complacent, they don't get as good as they could and that loses them support even though they are better than their competition.

He's a very strong contender, but I can see him falling at the last hurdle to the inevitable sportsman on a journey (i.e. Austin Healy or Mark Foster)

That's the great thing about Strictly - these things can't be that easily predicted. And if his personality and chemistry with his partner isn't right, he could find himself in the bottom 2 and out the week he does his "weakest" dance..

I hope he's with Ola - she need someone likeable who can dance after Kenny and her early exit in her first season. Or Kristina - she needs someone with potential so we can see what she's capable of.

I could see him being with either Hayley or Kristina- hopefully Kristina as she's a stronger dancer and I think he needs one! After all the trouble the BBC has gone to get in the new pros, I think they'll all get celebs with a lot of potential.

I read somewhere he's 6ft so probably a bit tall for Ola... Kristina is a tiny bit taller than Ola so maybe it won't be her either. But that only leaves Hayley, Camilla or Erin, if Karen is with Gary.

If Camilla gets him I can only assume she is paying whoever decides these things- Ray, then Gethin, then Tom!

Gosh, Camilla has had all the fit ones! Lucky!

I've heard that Camilla has Mark and Erin has Austin so that would rule those two out at this point.

Hayley maybe?
katie_p
25-08-2008
I don't think it will be Hayley, she and Camilla are the two tallest pros and needed to partner Andrew Castle and Mark Foster- both over 6ft.

So that leaves Kristina I guess.

I don't think it'll be Hayley as it leaves 6'3" Andrew Castle with one of the shorter pros.

The BBC seem quite random when it comes to allocating celebs to their new pros - it seem to go by height more than anything, as they're unknown quantities personality-wise so giving all of them "good"celebs could be risky. I agree, Camilla seems to do better than everyone. Maybe the whole Natasha/Brendan thing was orchestrated by the BBC for ratings but sadly went too far, so they may feel that they "owe" her. Brendan gets good partners as he's the resident bad boy, even though that role is now more about putting in extra lifts

I want Tom with Kristina actually, or Camilla at 2nd choice.

I'd rather it was Luke Roberts from Holby, but Tom will do just as well

Indeed!! I vote we make this thread the home of *Tom's Girls*

I'm so excited that I've put a countdown timer to Strictly on my f/book profile very sad...

(How gutted I'll be if he doesnt end up doing it, lol!)

ooh, Luke Roberts would have been good too! Or Duncan Pow! In fact, they should just do a Holby themed series!!

Oh god, me too... and I'm normally unbothered by any of the contestants before it starts...

I second the vote of this being *Tom's Girls* thread!

I'm kind of the same - before the series starts I'll have a particular professional (Brendan) that I know I'll support but not usually a celebrity. Until this year! But I guess that might change as the show goes on...or maybe not!

Well which ever pro gets him is gonna be the winner - I bet its one of the new ones.

I'm normally predisposed towards a celeb for various reasons - usually sportsmen - but that video does it for me with Tom! Hope it's true, I love seeing someone really go for it.

And not forgetting the lovely James in series 3


Think Tom has got Kristina as Camilla has got Mark. Austin has got Erin, Andrew has got Hayley and Gary has got Karen

Is Mark Foster really 6 ft 6 in? If so, Camilla's in for a tough time!
pasodabble
27-08-2008
I just had a look at the video on the BBC site and I'm now convinced it's Tom with Erin! Or maybe that's wishful thinking on my part

All will be revealed tomorrow...

Has this been confirmed? I'm hoping Camilla gets Andrew, Hayley gets Mark and Tom gets Erin. Austin can go to either Ola or Kristina.

Anyway I reckon whoever gets Tom has a one way ticket to the final so I hope it's Erin as she's my joint 2nd favourite pro. It's about time we saw Ms Whiplash in action again, although she may not need to crack her whip with Tom with all that dance experience he's bringing with him

There's speculation that Camilla has Mark because she knew her celeb a lot earlier than anyone else seemed to, and he was in Beijing for the Olympics so it kind of fits.

Ooh, I'd quite like to see Tom with Erin!

I'd be chuffed to bits if he got Erin!

Sorry to be a bit thick here - but who on earth are Hayley and Kristina?
katie_p
28-08-2008
New pros- Hayley Holt and Kristina Rihanoff.
