Strictly Come Dancing 2022 #5

Kym, I think she will be ok, her character on Corrie was a head melt but I think she is not as irritating irl

 

[Bol85]

I love Will! Yay! Kym Marsh is a famous face too.. I don’t mind her I met her once in Manchester & she was really nice!

 

[LowCalCalzoneZone]

I see Kym is playing down her musical theatre and pop career experience.... This year's unpopular female ringer? In which case, please keep her away from Gorka, he's had his fair share of them

 

[Boring Monday]

Kym deploying the ‘didn’t really dance at all’ card nice and early.

 

[Miss Begotten]

Kym, I think she will be ok, her character on Corrie was a head melt but I think she is not as irritating irl

No, you’re right. She is way, WAY more annoying as herself.
Is it really obvious I cannot stand her?

 

[soccergirl]

Katya for Will maybe if Luba is too tall? Or Lauren, as she partners Gio in his shows and he’s not that tall. Knowing my luck he’ll get Amy or Dianne though

I want Katya to get a contender! Will seems nice and prob good enough to go a few weeks but clearly not finalist material

I’m sensing you are not keen on her but she came across well I will duck now

 

[Fillyjonk]

Have they said who it is yet? Is it Kim?

 

[ButtonDownTheHutches]

I love Wiiiiiiiilllll! Jambo all the way

*really hope I’m not the only old lady who remembers him from his Hollyoaks days

He is forever Jambo to me!

I’m pleased about this: he’s reasonably well-known, seems like a nice bloke who doesn’t take himself too seriously, don’t get ‘complete duffer’ vibes from him - yep, no issues with this signing

(Obviously as I am of an age to remember Jambo, I will have no clue who the next three announcees are … )

 

[MyRightTit]

Nooooo, not Kym "would go to the opening of a fridge" March!!! She'll have her "amazing singer" daughter in the audience every week trying to make her famous!
Can. NOT. Stand. Her.

Yes second reveal is Kym Marsh

 

[Fillyjonk]

Yes second reveal is Kym Marsh

Ah well, nobody's surprised there! So two soap stars revealed first. Does it bode well if they're the biggest names?

 

[ButtonDownTheHutches]

Yes second reveal is Kym Marsh

Urgh.

The first two names are relatively ‘high-profile’ - I mean, we’re not talking Hollywood A-list, but I think most tv viewers would know who they are.

Wonder if it’s generally a decent cast this year, or if they’re going to hide a load of randoms in the middle of the announcements?

 

[Cupid_Stunt]

I wonder with both Will and Kym in the cast that definitively rules out Adam Thomas as Will covers the Northern male former soap star cheeky chappy role and Kym covers the Waterloo Rd star role

 

[MyRightTit]

I've a feeling they'll reel in the audience with these two more well known celebs, then it will generally decline into unknowns.

I have that feeling too!

 

[nicalibres]

Kym Marsh doesn’t massively bother me *ducks*.

I’ve a sneaky suspicion that reverend off Gogglebox might be on it this year but I hope I’m wrong.

 

[UnknownTattler]

So the rumour that Kym was doing it wasn't hearsay then?




I don't mind her, she ticks a lot of the Strictly boxes. Decent start to the reveals

Betting we get a cheesy dance to Cure My Pimple - I mean, Pure And Simple (damn you, Smash Hits)

 

[SwizzleMalarkey]

All I want is for Gorka to get a partner who is popular, likeable, has an established fan base who will vote and has no dance experience but is a naturally gifted beginner. Not too much to ask, surely?!
