Only if she had no personality to speak of or excelled in simpering ...

I was just gonna post that on here.

The fact that she's been axed makes in doubly-likely!

Looks like someone else has caught up with this thread ...

Ooh, I can see those 'previous experience' storm clouds on the horizon already!

nigel harman!! pleaseee

and since jonas armstrong has left Robin Hood now, maybe him or someone else from RH.

How about Keith Allen- with Ola

If Kara Tointon does SCD- how about her with Brian

How about: - Not Vincent or Kristina!!

JJ (just being contentious)

Names already mentioned in this thread, that I quite like:

Michael French
Richard Armitage
David Tennant
Steve Davis (if only to make Footygirl ecstatically happy )

Amanda Mealing
Kara Tointon
Sharon Osborne


I also like the ideal of Neil Pearson (because I've always had a bit of a crush on him) and David Mitchell. But I think there is not a chance of either of them doing it (especially David who is on record as saying he doesn't understand the point of dancing).

Not bad choices VL

Although I'm not keen on Sharon Osborne, I can see that she would probably be good entertainment. I especially like the idea of Richard Armitage and David tennant, although they are probably impossible dreams

I did also think maybe Michelle Ryan might be good for one of the taller male pros when i saw her on Dr who the other day.

Yes, I have much the same views on Sharon - there for entertainment only.

I think Michelle would have a good figure for ballroom and so she sounds a good choice.

Michael French- with Hayley
Richard Armitage - with Lilia
David Tennant - with Kristina
Steve Davis - has to be Erin

Amanda Mealing - how about Matthew
Kara Tointon - With Brian
Sharon Osborne- with Vincent
Michelle Ryan - with Ian

Thanks VL- I have paired them up with the pros just for fun

Sharon Osbourne would be hilarious Her personality reminds me a little of Cloris Leachman

I could just see her with Vincent... Two huge egos together.... it would be hilarious...

Although I doubt it though as I think she has really bad arthritis (doesnt she) and cant walk very well... (let alone dance)...

I'm not too sure about that?

The training clips would be interesting!!

How about one of the UK's Rappers?

Tinchy Stryder perhaps It would never happen though!

The fellas I know but who's Amanda Mealing??

[quote=TanAngelCat;31955775]
Isnt she the one who plays that lady surgeon out of HOlby City... (Connie something)? She could get a few hints from Tom Chambers presumably!

Yes she is. I know some people have had enough of holby city and eastenders celebs but I have a feeling she would be good.


Although anyone who has reached 40 is considered to be the "short straw", I think this wouldn't be a bad partnership, although Matthew would probably prefer someone younger like Michelle.

Matt has been lucky in the last 2 years with his partners, so if he is in line for a more mature lady this time Amanda would be good. Not quite sure how old she is? Not too old or a "no hoper", surely?

About 40 I think, and she's done some quite sexy trailers for Holby and so hopefully would be quite good at the Latin dances (as well as the ballroom).

Thanks VL

I didn't realise Cherie Lunghi was 56 last year so didn't want to put my foot in it

OK. lets be serious: how about: -

Wayne Rooney
His Holiness the Pope
Osama bin Laden
Pam St. Clements - just for Vincent

They'l do for a start.

JJ

oooh no! That would probably mean no Flavia or Brian either

Got a horrible feeling Richard Madeley could show up this year

I like the idea of Pam and Vincent ("Pincent" or "Vam")

I'd partner the Pope with Lilia since I think she'd bring him out of his shell and maybe get a bit of hip action going there.
