Strictly 2026

There's still plenty of time for an injury requiring him to be replaced by Fatboy of Eastenders
 
BBC must be hoping Kim K will make a trip up to Elstree to watch him and have Lacey Turner give her a tour of the Eastenders set.
 
The one who was dropped from Hollyoaks five years ago due to doing Onlyfans. Not sure that she's done any TV work since, or if she's still doing Onlyfans.
 
Poor brave Mandy of the Mandy Richardson Memorial College :( Lost every member of her extended family in various tragedies without ever finding out why they all had different accents despite growing up together. Then goes back to the village after a few years away to find out her old house is inhabited by bisexual serial killers called Cagnee, Laycee and Diamantique who are all married to Mercedes McQueen. And now THIS on top of everything else.
 
Bless her heart because she seems sweet and it's a cruel industry. But Strictly hasn't had a Hollyoaks person in a decade, so it would a BIG STRETCH even before you get to the fact she left Hollyoaks five years ago to do OnlyFans
 
It has been a while... I do wonder whether the roll out this year is a one-off due to the new presenting team or if the seemingly random drip feed is here to stay.

Melanie Walters from Gavin & Stacey and Jeff Brazier (ugh) were being rumoured.
 
I have no interest in this for some reason.

What if TESS DALY really was the glue that held it all together?
 
I haven’t really watched for a couple of seasons, and have to say that Claudia and Tess left because they knew the ship was sinking….FAST.
 
I don't think it was sinking fast under Claudia and Tess, but it was certainly in decline. And with her other more successful commitments and opportunities that has given her, I can understand why Claudia opted out. At the very least I think the show stayed successful enough with them that if the rot really sets in now, they won't be associated with it.
 
Big Moopy favourite and Love Island LEGEND (:eyes:) Cach Mercer latest announcement. :o
 
That's two Love Island contestants so far out of five that have been announced! Are they trying to get a younger audience?
 
Nice to know they are on the pulse and bagging former Love Islanders 5 years past the ITV2 shows peak. :(
 
On the subject of Love Island I am so behind my loves. I think the next episode for me to watch is the return from Casa Amor though which is always FUN.

One is a roll over to be fair.

Love Islander does seem to be standard casting now, though they do always look to play up another angle/string to their bow. This time it is Afrobeats dancer! Big on TikTok!

You would think they are due to dip into their own Traitors talent pool this year for a reality type.
 
Have celebs realised they can get the same exposure for much less effort doing 2 weeks on The Traitors instead.
 
Oh good. I think he'll be fun.

Big Brother will be airing during the Strictly run though... assuming he has not been quietly axed he'll be busy.
