    Re: Strictly Come Dancing 2010

    I am thrilled to see there should be no trouble in finding a class for ballroom dancing throughout the country with David Lloyd including lessons in their clubs:

    Hopefully it will really encourage the younger generation to enrol.

    I saw her in an episode of "The Professionals" last night, I'm pretty sure it was her anyway. Blimey, that was 30 years ago.

    Re: Strictly Come Dancing 2010

    I just noticed that Patsy Kensit wasn't on my list yesterday, but is on the official list.

    I told my husband who was dancing, and he said he'd pay good money to see Ann Widdecombe dance with Peter Shilton...

    Paul Daniels? They're taking the p1ss now.

    Is it me, or does this look like an older crowd than normal?

    Anne Widdecombe - 62
    Felicity Kendal - 63
    Gavin Henson - 28
    DJ Goldie - 44
    Jimi Mistry - 37
    Kara Tointon - 27
    Matt Baker - 32
    Michelle Williams - 30
    Pamela Stephenson - 60
    Patsy Kensit - 42
    Paul Daniels - 72
    Peter Shilton - 60
    Scott Maslen - 39
    Tina O'Brien - 27

    So that's nearly half the contestants - and half the female contestants - in their 60s.

    That seems like a real demographic shift to me. And frankly, I'm not sure I want to see many of these people dance.

    A behind the scenes look

    Does Anton reveal he's been partnered with Anne W?

    Perhaps, but I'm dying to see Paul Daniels make Alesha Dixon disappear (for three months ), or saw her in half or some such.

    I prefer to see the older celebs having a go. It's great seeing them being all pleased about their progress, fitness levels improving and losing loads of weight, etc. I agree it's more pleasing to the eye to watch the fit young things giving it large on the dancefloor but they're all a bit boring to me....it's not much of a physical challenge to the athletic types.

    Besides, Falicity Kendall?? she might be getting on a bit, but I bet you wouldn't kick her out of bed David. I know I wouldn't.

    DJ Goldie's certainly getting lots of publicity. His participation on Strictly announced on the same day that his son is in the papers. Apparently he just got a life sentence for murder.
    You'd never think that, looking at his father would you?

    I'd quite like to see Gavin Henson make a complete 4rse of it, but I've got a feeling that he'll disappoint me.

    I can honestly say I never, ever, got the whole Felicity Kendall lust thing.

    Pamela Stephenson, absolutely. But Kendall? Christ, no.

    But then, you go to Cheshunt, I expect your worldview is somewhat warped by that.

    She did win 'Rear of the Year' once didn't she?

    (Felicity Kendall that is.......not Pamela Stephenson (or Double Trouble)).

    And she does get a bit dirty sometimes:

    Ha!
    I just sent an enquiry to a local David Lloyd centre.
    Apparently, they have no details about the lessons, but they're nearly fully booked?
    and, if you're not already a member, the cheapest option is to pay £81 a month to be a casual member, then the cost of the lessons on top of that!
    Considering a reputable dance school would give you two lessons a week, for the just cost of membership at David Lloyd, I think I'll give that a miss.

    I can't really see Paul Daniels and Ann Widdecombe encouraging the younger generation to enrol in dance classes.

    Having not seen any of them dance I'm going to stick my neck out and predict the winner will be Matt Baker - he seems to be very good at most of the daft things they get him to do on Countryfile.
