Ooh, yay! I didn't realise it was due already!

Predictions based on names alone? I can't imagine Edwina being too good...

I think Holly Valance has the potential to be like the girl from Destiny's Child last year - everyone will think she should be good, but she's not.

I bet Edwina can dance! All those balls and functions she must have been to?

I hope Alex Jones can dance, I like her. And Jason, of course lol.....

another load of non-entities!

Ooooh, I was just thinking the other night that it must be due to start soon.

I can see Lulu being this year's Pamela Stevenson, with Jason D maybe in the Matt Baker role.

Unfortunately, Russel Grant has the potential to be a Joyhn Seargant, with Rory Bremner as Paul Daniels.................

Can't wait.

I'll admit now that I can't stand Lulu

At least I have heard of some of these!

Oh I also loathe Lulu! She was in a restaurant in Sheffield (about 15 years ago ha ha) and was utterly vile to a friend of mine who worked there.

*hope she falls over* heh heh......

Muah huh haaaah!!!

Any guesses on how Audley Harrison might do?

M..o.use

I'm not a Lulu fan either.

Steve Wright said on the radio that Russell Grant has lost a huge amount of weight already, 10 stone according to the meeja.

Edwina Currie, would she have had time for dancing in between all her (alleged) indiscretions?

Isn't Audley about 7 foot tall?! He'll get paired with Natalie Lowe then! You never know, boxers are quite nimble aren't they?

Russell Grant is as camp as a jamboree! The latin numbers should be fun lol!

I'm guessing slightly better than Quentin Wilson.

Do you think there are any obvious pairings then? As well as Audley being put with Natalie because of height, I reckon poor Vincent will get Lulu for the same reason (lack of...).

And thanks for bringing back the memories of Joe Calzaghe, Fraggle *shudder*. Maybe boxers aren't naturals after all then lol!
