    The full trailer for Strictly Come Dancing series 10 and the show's premiere date have been released.

    Judges Len Goodman, Craig Revel Horwood and Bruno Tonioli are shown flashing their best dance moves with new panellist - ballet star Darcey Bussell - in the promo clip.



    After the dance-off to David Bowie's classic 'Let's Dance', it is revealed that the BBC entertainment series will kick off its latest run on Saturday, September 15.

    The show is expected to resume its ratings battle with The X Factor across the autumn after securing higher audiences on various weekends last year.

    Children's TV icon Johnny Ball, cricket legend Michael Vaughan, Fern Britton, Girls Aloud star Kimberley Walsh, Jerry Hall and Westlife's Nicky Byrne are among the rumoured celebrities taking part this year.

    It's been nearly two months since this was announced, but Zoe Ball's got the It Takes Two job permanently.

    If her father is confirmed for this series, then no doubt many will rub their hands at the prospect of her interviewing him... ;)

    Claudia, meanwhile, has obviously decided to concentrate on the results shows and on being a mother of three. Being the lady that she is, she says that Zoe is better at ITT than she could ever be...

    Love ya Claudia. :o;)

    I am not a fan of Darcy Bussell as a judge - she wasn't great the few times she stood in. I wonder will she be sitting Bruno ;)

    Looking forward to the new series starting on Saturday. Richard Arnold should be good, and will be expecting good things from Denise Van Outen.

    Very underwhelmed by the list of competitors this year.
    Victoria Pendleton is extremely unlikable.
    I'll just have to cheer for Kimberley!

    Agree. It won't matter how good a dancer she will be.
    I have a feeling I'm going to like Jerry Hall.

    If Lisa Reilly can be lifted, there's hope for me!


  • Registered Users Posts: 489 ✭✭WaltKowalski


    Maybe not! Anton isn't the sexiest.


  • Registered Users Posts: 86,266 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Denise and James must be the favs already now

    I think Pasha and Kimberly or Lewis and Flavia could give them a run for their money.

    I like Tess' dress (for a change)!


  • Registered Users Posts: 32 armitage1971


    I think I am going to enjoy Strictly this year:) here's hoping anyway:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 86,266 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I dont like Lewis seems quite arrogant and full of himself


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,185 ✭✭✭Snoopy1


    Hey everyone welcome back.
    Bit delayed so only watching it now.
    Wish they'd get rid of Anton and Erin


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,185 ✭✭✭Snoopy1


    There's no one I have a weird crush on this year.
    We all know last years weird crush :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,300 ✭✭✭✭casio4


    enjoyed the show tonight, I thought the pairing of the couples would be obvious but they weren't. Thought Ola was disappointed to get Sid Owen from Eastenders as he can't dance and his odds of winning the show are 50/1 :D
    I'm really looking forward to it this year and I think it's the best line-up yet :)

    How is voting going to work this year. Do they get booted off the same night?
    Also first show is on a friday ???
    Can't believe its the 10 series, I feel old .


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,478 ✭✭✭Heroditas


    Denise Van Outen will also be a pain in the hole.
    The description of "one of the original ladettes" is not a good description. It also sums up why I don't like her - too gobby!
    She'll still do well though (unfortunately)


    Anyway, Kimberley for me! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭RosyLily


    Kimberly for me too I reckon! She has a great chance with Pasha! Aww, Pash...*sigh*

    I kind of like Louis; he's cocky but why not? If I had 3 Olympic medals at his age I'd be all "fcuk yaaaa":p I'd be interested to see how Victoria & Brendan and James & Denise get on. Thought Nicky didn't look too impressed being paired with Karen.

    Snoopy1, you may start watching Match of the Day or Football Focus to get your Savage fix!;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 489 ✭✭WaltKowalski


    Will Denise be able pull off ladylike dancing?

    And, it's sexist, but Louis can get away with his cockiness because he's a man!
    Plus, he's with Flavia, and everyone likes her.

    If its going to be a weird crush, then i'll have to go for Matthew Vaughan, but at a push.

    I love Pasha

    I think Lisa is really going to annoy me

    Lois is favourite apparantly.

    Does anyone else think the new professional, has a weird face?

    Wait a minute - just watched this on YouTube and Brucie said they'd be back in 3 weeks time for the first live show? We have to wait another 3 weeks?! Has it always been this way? I've never watched it from the start before


  • Registered Users Posts: 232 ✭✭tinyk68


    I thought Lewis looked really unhappy when he was paired with Flavia. He didn't even hold her hand when they were heading for the stairs. Wonder who he was hoping to get?

    They did it that way last year too. Bit stupid really.


  • Registered Users Posts: 41 janeyt


    At last Flavia has a decent partner. I expect she'll exploit lewis's gymnastic abilities. Being a massive cricket fan I am hoping
    Vaughney does well and goes far.
