Ellie is such a great signing!! It has to be Gorka surely? Unless Cameron comes off the bench but I feel like even if he does he won’t get such a high profile celeb for his first ever partner. Apologies if this comes across rude, but she’s hardly going to get Kai, Johannes or Graziano as they would be too tall and reserved for other taller contestants. I also think people shouldn’t be writing her off because of her height as it doesn’t determine her ability, seen a lot of people elsewhere saying they don’t want her with gorka as they want him to have a contender.
 
So far its not looking too bad, and most of the names ring some sort of bell 🙂
Has there been a radio DJ or social media related person or kids TV person yet?? Can't wait to see who else gets announced, feel like there will be some younger ones coming up next 🤔
 
I’m sure we just haven’t gotten to see his full potential and all that jazz but Cameron was very hap hazard in the pro numbers and seemed to never be in sync with everyone else. I particularly remember on with him and Jowita and it looked so horrific cause they were doing side by side not in time. He needs another year on the bench imo and shouldn’t be getting a partner over one of the others

No offence to Cameron but he hasn't even taught or choreographed a celeb for a Christmas special let alone had one for a series. If he does come off the bench, I can see him getting someone a bit younger

I imagine they will want Ellie to have a pretty decent run, so will pair her with someone experienced who has gotten to the final before, just like they did with Rose last year. So, Gorka 🙏. Also, I know it's not a priority but she does live in Manchester as well, which might swing it

Although I'm trying not to get my hopes up as I was convinced Gorka would be partnered with Nina last year and we all know how that turned out
 
Agree, you want someone who knows the show pretty well inside out so can just focus on the best way to adapt and train (so Gio and Rose, Aj and Lauren, Oti and Johnny Peacock).

I really like Ellie so please don’t come at me when I ask this: how will the dances work height wise? Like being in hold etc? I probably sound really ignorant but I honestly can’t picture it.

Actually, I think that's a very reasonable question being on the shorter side myself, but they must have some ideas, if it couldnt work they likely wouldn't have asked 🤔
 
Lovely they’ve got Ellie!! She’s already been an inspiration to one of the young para swimmers from Tokyo so this could inspire so many other young people with similar conditions.

Cameron is highly unlikely to get her as a partner for his first time. He’s far too young and inexperienced for such a partnership not to mention he doesn’t appear to be popular with fans. So I definitely think she’ll get Gorka so he can possibly go out on a really positive note.

Still waiting on the 90’s/00’s pop star unless Kym is ticking that box but I feel she’s more ticking the soap actress or bbc presenter box.
