Richard Madley

Johnny Vegas (Can you IMAGINE his Tango!)

Peter Mandleson

Alex Kingston

Vernon Kaye (Mr Tess Daly)

 

Can't wait either :D

 

There is something very comforting about knowing where all the Omleteers will be on a Saturday at 7.30, isn't there? :lol:

Last year was the first time I've ever really watched it (SCD) and I was hooked! My choir is doing a version of 'If my friends could see me now' in our next concert, and every time we sing it I think of Tom Chambers and that wonderful, wonderful final dance he did.

 

It's entertaining, it's exciting, the outfits are lovely and IT'S CLEAN! I'm not a prude but it is a refreshing change to watch something that you could happily sit in front of with every member of the family from 8 to 80.

 

I can't wait! :D Thanks for the heads-up, Egluntine.

Sorry Em :oops:

 

All my friends love it, and I mean LOVE it, are obsessive, watch the BBC3 extra shows and everything. They made me watch an episode last year, and I have to admit I couldn't see the attraction. It bored me. They all talk about it in front of me and I don't mind because I occasionally talk football, and always talk chooks :lol:

I kind of get where you are coming from Debs. I have to confess that, although I do watch the show, I always Sky + it and fast forward what I consider to be the boring bits.

 

This may not go down well but this includes Bruce's cringeable jokes! Also, Len really gets on my nerves so he tends to go x30 as well!

 

Having tried a bit of ballroom dancing, it just amazes me how well these beginners do and I do really enjoy the dancing part of the show.

A few names that are reported as being in the next series:

 

Linda Bellingham

Zoe Lucker

Laila Rouass

Jo Wood

Kara Tointon

Rav Wilding

Joe Calzaghe

 

 

Can't wait. Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da.

 

Mmmmmmmm

The only one I recognise is Linda Bellingham. Wasn't she Mrs Herriot and didn't she sell Oxo cubes?

I need to stay in more.

 

As for Peter Mandelson, yuk, fancy having to dance cheek to cheek with that creep :vom::vom::vom: but I suppose Nulabour have been dancing rings round us for 12 years .

We have always watched the show as a family, but DH has announced that he is boycotting the next series not because Arlene isn't there, but because her replacement is not a professional ballroom judge.

 

I share his sentiments but I am not totally convinced that I will be able to boycott it.

But neither was Arlene.....she is a choreographer. I agree that her departure is a shame, even though she could be a bit irritating at times.

Ok, but she is one of the top professionals. I heard Karen is not dancing anymore - also that she has been told she's too old. She would have made an excellent judge and I'm sure there are more than 3 ballroom dancers in the country who could have taken Arlene's place.

 

Alesha Dixon is just a stupid choice, in my view, and it lowers the standard of the programme.
