STRICTLY COME DANCING 2008

Strictly Come Dancing 2008 Competitors

IT’S BACK!!!!

A new gaggle of celebs take to the floor for the sixth series of SCD Here are my thoughts about them.

Christine Bleakley – One Show host. Will have a considerable fan base – and of the type of people who vote! Should be a good bet, very keen on running apparently? Partner – Matthew Cutler

Andrew Castle – GMTV presenter, and former tennis player – will this “couch potato” fare any better than his illustrious colleagues Fiona and Kate? Partner Ola Jordan

Tom Chambers – from Holby City. Good looking boy – Bruno will no doubt take a shine to him! – Partner Camilla Dallerup

Phil Daniels – Eastenders. Hard to tell – maybe his acting skills will carry him through. Wonder if he got extra lessons from his “daughter” in Albert Square? – Partner Flavia Cacace

Mark Foster – Swimmer. Eye candy for Arlene. Will deffo. have the fitness levels required, not sure about grace or natural rythmn though.- Partner Hayley Holt

Austin Healey – rugby player. Named after a car. Remember the other “car” bloke, Quentin?
Partner Erin Boag

Jodie Kidd – model. Models never do very well. In the US show, they are always voted out first, regardless of skill, purely because the voters don’t know who they are! – Partner Ian Waite

Cherie Lunghi – actress: The Manageress, coffee adverts, Victorian matron. Attractive lady of a certain age, will probably stay in until about week 6. – Partner James Jordan

Gary Rhodes – chef, mainly became famous for his hair. One of the first “celebrity TV chefs”. Can “use” a whisk, but can he “do” one? – Partner Karen Hardy

John Sergeant – former BBC political correspondent. Ah, bless him. BBC Equal Opps. Casting at its best. Good luck John. – Partner Kristina Rihanoff

Heather Small – M People singer. I can only think of two of her songs, and that she had a Marge Simpson hairdo…. Will keep an open mind on this one. – Partner Brian Fortuna

Lisa Snowdon –another model – hmmm, Britain’s Next Top Dancer? Famous as the ex-squeeze of George Clooney. – Partner Brendan Cole

Rachel Stevens – formerly of S Club 7, FHM favourite. Has said she won’t wear skimpy dresses though… that might cost her some votes. Mind you, young teenage girls will remember her as their favourite “SCLUBBER” and will no doubt vote in high numbers! – Partner Vincent Simone

Gillian Taylforth – Eastenders. Infamous for a Motorway Incident! An actor, who will no doubt give it all she has. – Partner Anton Du Beke

Jessie Wallace – Eastenders. Already the papers are full of her moaning about the other girls having better dresses, and is making eyes at Vincent! – Partner Darren Bennett

Don Warrington – Rising Damp, New Street Law. Another actor. Have to wait and see about this one. However, he does have – Partner Lilia Kopylova!
