The Strictly bunch

Have I missed this?
Do you know who is on strictly this year?

I have just googled strictly 2012.
I haven't heard of some of them.
Johnny Ball and Jerry Hall are representing the more mature group.

I'm in the mood for dancing.....

doesn't matter who else is on strictly 2012.
its going to be worth watching for the delectable Nicky Byrne late of Westlife .

Jerry Hall is a bit frightening (not seen the show, only seen her in interviews). All dead hair and red lipstick.

Louis Smith for me, please

I imagine Denise van Outen will be good but Jerry Hall might surprise us as did Pamela Whatsit last year!

Apparently, Louis Smith has dumped his girlfriend - do you think he reads GN

If Victoria Pendleton cries every week I shall stop watching

Oh merlot, glad its not just me who finds that annoying....I know we are all supposed to adore her but she does seem to trot the weepies out a lot. P.S. shall be watching Ian Hislops 'Stiff upper lip' programme!

I thought the judges were a bit hard on Jerry Hall on Saturday night. I would have liked to see her another week while Michael Vaughan seems out of place. He looked as though he would have settled for just cricket from now on. Victoria Pendleton seems to be getting an Olympic hand from the judges but, overall, the score board is getting it about right. Glad that Darcy has changed her mode of speech. She's very good now.

Jerry Hall was ramrod stiff. She had no 'sway'. Michael Vaughan might surprise us - maybe! Remember Darren Gough improved hugely from the beginning to win his series, though a silly choice of show dance by Erin robbed her partner Colin Jackson of the title, in my opinion. What a Strictly geek I am!

Anno I was only thinking about those awful puppet things on Saturday night. You're not the only geek

Agree with all your comments anno. The judges were quite tough on Darren in the early weeks, then he just seemed to 'get' it and went from strength to strength. Erin & Colin's show dance was a bit embarassing wasn't it?
I still think that Austin Healey should have won!

Will never forget Austin Healey's Paso Doublé! Certain dances live in the memory, don't they - Jill Halfpenny's jive, Mark Ramprakash's Argentine tango (smokin!).

The link to Austin's Paso is in the 4th post on this thread anno, I watch it all the time fairly often

Ah, that takes you back, doesn't it, Notso?

Off to find Ramps Tango now.

Whatever is the gorgeous Darcey Bussel doing slumming it on that farrago of a programme?

You can keep Jerry Hall...

Darcy's earning a great deal of money and not getting blisters with it feetle. Agree about Jerry Hall. Far too languid.

What sticks in my memory is Chris Hollins and Ola Jordan`s Charleston, it was brilliant. I agree about Erin losing the title for Colin Jackson, we still talk about that, even now.

Hmm. Everyone seems to agree with my DW about Jerry Hall. I also get to hear about Mark Ramprakash at home quite often as well. I didn't know ladies were so interested in cricket.

Feetlebaum: Maybe Darcey Bussel thought it would be fun, as well as lucrative, to appear on a programme with umteen million viewers who love the programme despite it's variety roots and low-brow nature. By the way, I don't think I could keep Jerry Hall, not without an enormous mortgage.

I hope Louis Smith wins as he narrowly missed out on a gold at the Olympics and aside from that his dancing is shaping up well for the first couple of weeks, I like Denise but I do feel she has a slightly unfair advantage in that she has danced on the stage, I think she was in Chicago for a while.

I`m loving Lisa Reilly`s efforts. For a big girl she`s surprisingly light on her feet.

I'll let Louis win if he lets his hair grow..............I'm afraid I really dont like his 'Brazilian!
