It's been such an amazing journey.

It's been a real rollercoaster ride.

This is the best thing I've ever done in my life (especially annoying if the celeb has children, or is married)

What you have to remember, is that he's a SPORTSMAN!

I knew I would get knocked out this week, I just had a feeling about it (as opposed to all the other weeks, when they couldn't believe they had stayed in)

You were like Fred and Ginger in that dance.

Ian's partners and their long legs (I do sympathise, really! But do they have to go on and on and on about it?)

"But..he's a SPORTSMAN.."
"For a RUGBY PLAYER.. you were _________"
"And Ian, you are so TALL. Your partner is TALL"

Arlene's awful attempts at alliteration

Also last year's variant on the SPORTSMAN thing, when Kenny left and there were no SPORTSMEN left: 'He's only TWENTY!'.

'The main thing is I had FUN out there!' (often uttered when a celebrity has put in a diabolical performance).

"This has been the most amazing experience of my life"

(not half as amazing as the length of time he stayed in)

Brendan's extra lifts excuse - "I was giving the public what they want!"

He really is his own worst enemy at times...

Brucie doing the Italian kiss ala Vincent.

"Nice to see you! To see you...!" (I know it's supposed to be a catch-phrase, but I am getting annoyed by it last series and I only watched two series!)

Pros/celebs: We've put in 110% (or anything beyond 100% to show how hard they worked)

Brendan: It's about pae-ssion (yes, his accent included).

Bruno with all the animal description of the dance routine (good or bad).

Craig's one-word comment: A-MA-ZING! Dull, dull, dull!

Arlene with all her alliteration! *gaaaaaahhhh!!!!!!*

and the list goes on...

And 'this week, I'm doing it for my family!'

Also contestants' children- 'I'm very proud of Daddy! Good luck Daddy!'

AND! A token granny character with one of the contestants. Series 3 was Gough's, series 5 was Dixon's. Series 4, I can't remember though...

*waves at Katie again* *I am not stalking you, promise!*

Seeing that Arlene is drooling all over Colin now she can drool over his real-life partner (if rumour is to be believed) Mark F!

More Cliches: Contestants saying: Everybody's a winner (but as Claudia said: And there will be losers!).
