'The series 21 partnerships are as follows:

15: Amanda Abbington & Giovanni Pernice
14: Angela Rippon & Kai Widdrington
13: Layton Williams & Nikita Kuzmin.
12: Krishnan Guru Murphy & Lauren Oakley.
11: Eddie Kadi & Karen Hauer.
10: Angela Scanlon & Carlos Gu.
9: Zara McDermott & Grazio Di Prima
8: Adam Thomas & Luba Mushtuk.
7: Nikita Kanda & Gorka Marquez.
6: Jody Cundy & Jowita Przytal
5: Ellie Leach & Vito Coppola.
4: Bobby Brazier & Dianne Buswell.
3: Nigel Harman & Katya Jones.
2: Annabel Croft & Johannes Radebe.
1: Les Dennis & Nancy Xu.

I’m pretty certain these are all correct, the ones I’m slightly doubting from memory are Adam and Bobby’s partners (especially taking height into account) but even so I think they’re right as listed.

Meaning Neil Jones, Michelle Tsiakkas and, new to the bench, Nadiya Bychkova are without partners this year!'

love some of these...hate some of these!
Really not feeling Bobby and Diane! (I really cant stand Diane) Wouldn't have put Angela R with Kai, but hopefully they'll do okay!

I hope Layton's ringer-ness doesn't put too many people off and him Nikita go far!
I'm so glad they didn't do the NikitaxNikita gaff!

Delighted Luba off the bench (although I'd have given her Bobby) and excited to see how Lauren does with a celeb!!

And...as always...delighted there's no Neil
 
I'm thrilled for Luba getting a partner ☺️ and it's about time Katya had a ringer again, god knows she has done her time with comedy contestants and did it well! Some of the pairings are less comprehensible, but I bet the producers have their reasons which will hopefully be revealed when we see them together. I do understand Kai and Angela too from a temperament perspective tho, for example
 
Hey folks!

Really appreciate everyone posting the pairings discussion in spoiler tags for those of us who wait for the show 😀

But... I've been a bit curious since yesterday, so just wondered if someone would be kind enough to let me know...

Who has Bobby been paired with?
 
I haven’t read all the posts but just seen the spoiler!

Pleased to see Lauren got a partner, disappointed Nadiya didn’t. I hope we can really see Luba’s choreography but that’ll only work if Adam is teachable.

Nikita and Layton - looking forward to this pairing!

Giovani’s stories the other day when he hinted he knew who he has - he either didn’t know, Amanda’s a dark horse or he could be the next James Bond his acting skills are so good because on the face of it, I’m not sure he would have wanted her.

I honestly do not get why year in, year out Diane gets a potentially decent partner. And Bobby looks pretty tall, so is that excuse going to be trotted out again? He seems like a popular guy so who knows but I would have benched her and paired Nadiya with Bobby. She does seem to have a loyal fanbase and Joe has loads of followers but they’re not voiting

I think Kai is a good shout for Angela R - she can dance and yes 79 is old but he is probably the right person to figure out how far to push her without causing a strain to the NHS.

Katya and Nigel I am excited for!!

And I’m starting to feel sorry for Neil at this point - I know he likes being on camera on a Saturday night but at this point, it’s making me feel sad for him. I don’t like this feeling.

Hope you had a great time @Libbub! Looking forward to reading about it

Poor Bobby, couldn't have gone worse for him, she's the worst pro in my opinion, makes the choreography about herself rather than the celeb every year, Luba or Nadiya is who I was expecting for him

This should be in spoiler tags as it’s probably clear who you’re talking about…

I see on DS one of the #moles was saying the best dancers looked like
Bobby, Layton, and Zara

FWIW

Bobby has been paired with
Dianne

if this is all correct I cannot believe they've screwed Bobby over like that. Dianne will ruin his chances. She's all too short for him I'd have thought.

Also, as much as I'm not sure I'm gonna like Layton, I'm now gonna have to support him if he's with Nikita, who will just smash this pairing. There is gonna be some spectacular dances from them two.

And sleazy Gio who has long since checked out couldn't have got a partner more likely to irritate the audience Caroline Quentin style, so they can be annoying together.
 
Im still holding out hope that the original spoilers author was wrong about Bobby/Adam. They did put a bit in saying they were they only two they might not be 100% on. So hopefully they’ve muddled them up 😫😫😫😫
I know it’s probably right tho - I can’t see TPTB giving Luba Bobby after being benched so long…

Sorry, but someone else who was there has confirmed the pairings are correct.
 
the pros and judges do a dance together , it was very good. Motsi had to be sewn back into her dress as she was exposing a bit too much, no surprise, Shirley is tiny but totally still has it. Anton is just a smooth old school star, took time to chat to us all was very funny. Craig was nervous doing thr dance but his usual self.

dianne im afraid is a bit of a show off. In between takes she was giving it large and very very flirty with the crew

no you’re not; just a lot more are vocal on the dislike🤣

@Libbub Sounds like you had a great time!☺

Yeah it was a real spectacle. Long dat but totally worth it. I'm not a superfan and thought if I got bored I'd leave. There was no chance I was going anywhere.
Claudia winkleman is a funny funny woman, she kept the audience entertained and is exactly like she comes across . Very quick witted. Both her and tess are stick thin. Shirley may wanna come across as a lady but she wears a yellow dress and spent the entire time digging her knickers out of her arse!

Of course she is, she's Angela Rippon. Trained ballet dancer and can still do the splits.

Angela has reached that happy point on the Strictly balance scales where age weighs heavier than previous training and we are going to have to be amazed every week that she can get down the stairs without the aid of a Stanna stair lift

I think there are some great pairings this year

I was hoping Bobby wouldn't get Dianne (I like her but the height difference is an issue)

Bobby is the one that saddens me the most. Whatever your feelings on Dianne it seems strange to go for a pairing that has exactly the same problem as was highlighted last year and that she admitted she found difficult to work around. I’m sure he will do well, because he seems like the traditional Nice Young Man that always does well on Strictly (I remember Jay in the launch show group dance looking like a rabbit in the headlights) but I just know that however good he becomes, I’ll always be thinking that with someone else he could have been better., which seems a bit of a shame. And a waste, really.
