Shame about Robin Jasmine but it'll be good to have some new faces this year.

I've heard that Artem has gotten a job in America with Dancing With The Stars. I'm guessing he'll not be able to do the UK one as well.

It has been confirmed that Andy Murray's Mother is coming into Strictly this year.!!!!! She's fiercely competitive, it'll be interesting to see how she does.
It's so good that Tess and Claudia are doing the hosting this year, I won't have ff every 5 mins or so because of bf.
BF said he left strictly because it was'nt fun for him any more.
James Jordan went into Celebrity Big Brother last night!

It wasn't fun for anyone watching him either! James Jordan in CBB - interesting! Andy Murray's mum is causing some comment...along the lines of now they're booking up the mothers of famous people!

Have to say, that was the reaction Jenny and I had as well.

She is a respected tennis coach and was hersel the 8th best woman tennis player in the uk in her time, so I guess she's on par with some of the non entities we've had in the past, who are really only famous by their associations ( Nancy del'Ollio , Jo Wood for example )

Good point - she writes a sports column too for something or other. I might put myself forward, I spoke to Edward Kennedy once....actually he came round for dinner when I was nannying years ago...do you think that counts

Definitely I met, and spoke to, Harold and Mary Wilson on the Isles of Scilly and shook the hand of Princess Di so I'd better brush up my Foxtrot

Missy don't let Auricula hear you mention that word! I'm very impressed with all the famous folk we've met. When I lived in London Jenny and I got Shane Richie's autograph and at an Ideal Home exibition here in Belfast, we stood and chatted to Justin and Colin who were "famous" in their day. We got our pics taken with them too. Oh and I once had a back stage pass for Cris De Burg and sat beside him chatting to him for ages. I've had a drink with Michael Flatley too, and he really could dance. I nursed lots of famous people when I worked in London and their OH's too. Another confirmation for Strictly Thom Evans who was a rugby player. He'll be light on his feet then.

We've all had our 15 minutes of fame then! Loved River Dance Ladygardener - saw Michael Flatley in it ages ago! He would have a head start on SCD!

Thanks Auricula, I'll look forward to it. Simon Webb from Blue has also been confirmed. I'd say he'll be good.

He has a 17yr old daughter apparently. I'd no idea Blue were so old
