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.
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?! 😆


 
Will is a great celeb...Kym is mehhh. I feel like she may get Graz though not sure why
No matter who she gets she's going to be old enough to be their mum. If Anton was dancing she'd probably get him.
She might be ok at ballroom, latin not so much imo.
Even though I sympathise about her dad I think it'll be a pity party & sob story every week, with her dedicating every dance to him. Another Alexandra Burke (I'm not heartless but this is a light entertainment dancing show).
 
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 🙄
Can't see him being put with dianne to be honest, he's quite tall whilst she's the second smallest pro, not sure about Amy either. I would however guess him being paired with nadiya 🤔

Karen and Dianne are both 5ft3 so the smaller side of average and Will Mellor is 5ft9 so this isn't that much of a difference. People get really hung up on height and it doesn't usually mean much in the end.

She’s the same age as Will Mellor, 46, so with that theory whoever he is paired with he’d be old enough to be their dad

Yeah but in the 2019 series Dianne has been paired with Dev who was very tall so that kind of pairing can happen.

True, but I've heard the pros mention in various series that they need to be paired with someone of suitable height other wise some of the dances just can't work properly more so in ballroom dances than Latin.

They paired Jowita who is just 5ft with Adrian Chiles who is 6ft at Christmas and they did ballroom - it worked okay.

No it’s not, but I was just repeating what the other poster said as I thought their comment that Kym would be old enough to be their mum was strange when she’s the same age as Will and that comment wasn’t aimed at him

Oh I know! Sorry, I was agreeing with you.

I think Karen is 5ft 5 the same as Amy and Katya.
 
Betting we get a cheesy dance to Cure My Pimple - I mean, Pure And Simple (damn you, Smash Hits)


Has anyone danced to their own song on Strictly? I remember thinking they’d do loads of Spice Girl’s stuff for Emma Bunton but they never did.

Thankfully we might be spared the dredging up of all those Hearsay “classics” (all one of them!)

I’m pleased with Will, Kim is a bit meh. She opened our town carnival a few years ago, she looked horrified to be here til they gave her a bottle of Prosecco and a glass and she was driven around town drinking and waving to all us plebs haha.

On another note, I saw Amy’s wedding pics and she looked lovely but I thought Diane’s ridiculous hair really spoilt the look of the pics with the bridesmaids in.

Kristina & Colin Salmon were such an odd height pairing I’m sure he must have been a last-minute emergency signing


(Snap, @Boring Monday! Great minds, eh? 😁)
