Pros: Stay or Go?
If the BBC does what many want and cut the series down to just 12 couples again next year, which four professionals would you let go?
Just a reminder of the 16 this year: Men Anton Brendan Brian Darren Ian James Matthew Vincent Women Camilla Erin Flavia Hayley Karen Kristina Lilia Ola Karen's already leaving if rumours are to be believed, so that means only one other woman needs to go. Though I'd be tempted to ask both Hayley and Ola (though the shallow part of me wants her to stay ) to go, and for Nicole to return.As for the men - James and...I'd like to see Anton go personally. How about you? Who'd you drop from the professional list? |

I'd drop James and Ola.
I'd have Anton in a different role but still on the programme. Hayley has done nothing for me. She can go. And I'd PAY to get rid of Vinthenth. I can't thtand him! |

Personally, I wouldn't be sorry if the Jordan's didn't come back next year..... Cherie's rumba aside, neither of them have choreographed very good routines for their celebs- IMO. Not really sure otherwise.

I'd ditch Anton and Erin because of their lack of Latin ability. I mean, they're not bad dancers but their routines are really uninspired compared to the rest. I'd also swap Hayley for Nicole, for the same reason.
If Karen's leaving then good riddance *cough* sorry, I meant that's one problem solved. As for kicking out one more boy - I can't! I want to keep them all!

I wouldn't mind any of the pro males going except Ian, Matthew, Brendan & Anton.
For the girls, Ola & Hayley to go. |

Only four? Any of these could go: Anton (I like him but his Latin leaves much to be desired), Brendan, James, Matthew, Erin, Karen and Ola.
Which would leave: Men Brian Darren Ian Vincent Women Camilla Flavia Hayley Kristina Lilia |

Who I'd keep
Men Anton Du Beke Brian Fortuna Darren Bennett Ian Waite Matthew Cutler Vincent Simone Women Camilla Dallerup Erin Boag Flavia Cacace Karen Hardy Kristina Rihanoff Lilia Kopylova Basically I've axed 2 pro partnerships; Hayley and Brendan and James and Ola However next would Kristina want to do the show for another year after the John backlash; would Matthew want to stay after the Nicole stuff and her not being asked back to the show? |

Vincent seriously creeps me out and I wouldn't be sad if he didn't return.

Trouble is that most of them come in pairs and its usually both or neither (Cutlers excepted as they have done the show separately and together)
Keepers Ian & Camilla (more him than her though!) Darren & Lilia (more her than him) Matthew & Nicole (she needs to come back) Brian & Kristina Vincent and Flavia Could say cheerio quite happily to James & Ola Brendan Hayley Karen We should say goodbye to Anton & Erin as dancers - as neither of them are particularly brilliant at Latin - but I do love watching their showdances and their partnership is just fantastic, and I'd actually hate to see them go. |

I wouldn't mind seeing Anton as a judge, but I really don't want him to be a presenter. Think I'd find him too cringey to watch.

I would definitely want the following to stay:
Ian Brian Matthew Darren Vincent Brendan Lilia Erin Kristina I would be sad to see any of the others go, but if it was a choice I’d probably miss Hayley (because I haven’t really seen enough of her to make an impact), Camilla (I just don’t get a connect with her), Anton (because he’s popping up all the place on TV. How can I miss him?) and Ola (because whilst she's competitive, she’s seems a little bit detached from the show – with James at least you can tell he wants it) the least. So by default that leaves James, Flavia and Karen to join the ones I want to keep. |

I'd drop James & Ola because they're vile and Anton & Erin because they're both so bad at Latin, then we could go back to 12 couples and everyone dancing from week one.

I wouldn't miss James and Ola Jordan. I'd perhaps also axe Anton Du Beke and Erin Boag, but Anton is such a big character, I don't Strictly would seem the same without him.
I certainly would like to see Darren, Lilia, Vincent, Flavia, Ian, Camilla, Brian, Hayley, Matthew, Kristina and Karen all return .Brendan - I am not really fussed. |

Pro's I'd like to stay
Darren and Lilia (for me, the show would suffer from their leaving) Anton and Erin (AS ABOVE) Ian and Camilla (Like Ian more than Camilla though) Kristina and Brian (love both of them too) Like Vincent but a bit meh on Flavia ( I personaly think had she not nad Matt DA as a partner last year she may have suffered the same fate as Nicole!) Actually would like Brendan to stay -he's calmed down a fair bit and is doing a great job with Lisa. Hayley didnt make much of an impact and I dont mind Matt Cutler but Im not overcrazy about him. As for Nicole, I must be honest and say I dont miss her at all....for me, she never made as much of an impact as the likes of Darren, Ian, Lilia etc, who all came in series 2 and all made the final four. Some may say that was because of her partners but other pros have had less talented partners and are still somehow -sparkier? Guess its all down to personal choice eh? ![]() The Jordans -dont mind them but again -their choreography isnt always great -in two minds I suppose. ![]() EDIT -Missed Karen! I have heard she is leaving -am neither pro nor anti Karen so not too bothered, although I thinks he was a great addition to the show. |

Of the men I wouldn't miss Anton, James, Darren and Brendan.
Of the women I think Ola is the only one I cannot take to. That leaves the number of men and women unequal but maybe they could bring in some new pros. B. |

Karen should go because she wants to - otherwise, I generally enjoy her being on the show. I wouldn't be fussed if Hayley didn't return.
I also don't particularly like Vincent (but I have warmed to Flavia this year). Not sure if I'd like to lose another male. |
