It's a pretty tall male cast so far isn't it - no obvious candidates for Oti or Dianne yet

Looking back at some pairings I’m not sure if height does bring up many issues especially when the ladies are in their heals. Caroline was around 5’3 and danced with Johannes who’s around 6’00 (according to information online which may or may not be 100% accurate).Dianne and Dev had a similar height difference five or take an inch.

Only time height plays a part is in extreme circumstances when a male contestant is shorter than average so would automatically go with Janette (now that tiny lady role is filled by Jowita) or the super tall men (Dan Walker is very tall) would automatically be with Luba or nadiya. Everyone else
just fits around one another.

I don’t watch LW so I’m out the loop of the panellists. I know Ruth and Jamelia have both done it already. Nina is 52, are the regular LW panellists of that age-ish? Just wondering if they would have two light entertainment contestants of the same gender and similar ages.

And still no sports stars! They’re maybe leaving Kammy as the final (and best) reveal…
 
Maybe Loose Women’s Kéllé Bryan - 44 - Female Pop Star- Eternal/ Hollyoaks actress + hidden disability as she has Lupus. ( She is in the hidden disability awareness campaign Ads atm)

Surprised all the contestants this year are from England ( mainly London) - no Scottish, Welsh or Irish so far, v poor UK diversity by the BBC.

Not just height match I mean, but other factors too, like I thought by now there would be a very obvious old duffer for Oti but no one fits that so far

Possibly Rhys and Dianne? But for some reason I'm picturing him with Nancy more

She could be a good shout.

That’s true, and with only 4 more to reveal there’s not a huge scope for the other three countries to be fairly represented!

Just a wee recap of who we have so far:

Is Kammy the guy who is a sports commentator because if it is he was not too well when he was on Stephs Packed Lunch before they went off air for the Summer.
Colleen Nolan has said she would give anything to be on Strictly.
