Why the hell would you want an old Aston Villa player doing voice-overs, or have I missed the point entirely?!Originally posted by bigdjiver
It might be hilarious if you had Terry Wogan or Paul Merson doing voice-overs

OK, rereading the BBC press release, the series is produced by a lady called Karen Smith. Her previous form on TV consists of a series on Channel 4 called "The Games", which apparently was about turning no-name celebs into athletes (never saw any of it - sounds like "Superstars" without the "Super" or the "stars" bits...).
So that explains the celeb aspect then. More to the point, that and tone of the press release makes me think it'll be the main focus of the show, unfortunately.
If you want an early tip for winner, I'd go for David Dickinson. After all, he's got the perfect skin colouring for ballroom already

My eight-year-old neice watched that "Superstars" thing - I suffered an epesode {I think}... had people trying to do the vault: badly. I didn't recognised anyone except the guy who swindled lots of money and got put away. Maybe I'm getting old.
That would trivilaise the whole thing - too much tv seems to appeal to our baser instincts. TV too often does not even try to be mentally stimulating, you'd think for the reality tv genre theyd try to at least have something to say! Watching Big Brother I always felt was like watching 'Its a Knockout' that fantastic game show from the 80's .Originally posted by bigdjiver
Actually, it would be a very intresting experiment, but probably not good TV - there would only be one person that most of the audience could understand, and they would not be saying much because the others could not understand it. It might be hilarious if you had Terry Wogan or Paul Merson doing voice-overs for what individuals were thinking / trying to communicate.
The audience in this instance should undertand as much as the other people there, a large part of our communication is non-verbal and it would be an interesting intellectual exercise. Maybe im suggesting a tv program only i would like though .

Damn it: it looses some of the subtlety when I didn't intend to miss-spell niece or episode. {I did mean the others tho }Originally posted by DavidB

Dare I say this but Jade Goody has already been to Charlton, before she went on Big Brother, hope she doesn't come back for a telivised version thoughOriginally posted by TheTramp
Oh my. So, we get to watch half-celebrities learning to dance.

I notice from next week's Radio Times that there's a Strictly Come Dancing programme on Wednesday 12 May at 11:30pm on BBC3 (for those people that can get it).
It's described as "Behind the scenes of the celebrity ballroom dancing game show which starts next week, as the celebs get in training and don their costumes."
There's also another programme on Friday 14 May on BBC3 at 10:30.
Love dance, will travel
Did anyone see this on BBC Breakfast this morning?
news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/breakfast/3648625.stm
Probably the first time you'll ever hear Rugby League and dancing mentioned in the same sentance on TV!
I found this on the BBC website this morning, should anyone be interested.

Excellent stuff!!!Originally Posted by Stuart
I fell in love with the show, but missed out on tickets last time. So many thanks for this Stuart!
That's because the tickets weren't available to the public during the last series.Originally Posted by Gojive
I was fortunate enough to get to hear about and go to the filming of the pilot, but when I enquired about tickets for the actual series, I was told that the studio audience would be made up mostly from friends and family of the 20 dancers.
Oh, did I mention that Ceroc Surrey are now teaching Ballrooom Latin classes at their Godalming venue on sundays - the teacher is non other than Kylie Jones (danced with Jason - the camp comedian), one of the stars of the last series of Strictly Come Dancing,
(who has apparently also been asked back for the next series as well )
Apparently Anton Du Beke and Erin Boag will be back in the next series too
And BTW they teach private lessons too (please say Hi from Deb Woodyard , that Aussie girl, if you see them!) Anton is an absolute hoot!
I'll be lucky if I get to see the last series sometime this year, I'm very jealous of those who can get tickets for the new one Please cheer extra loud in the audience for me
