Strictly Come Dancing 2008

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7585656.stm

The line-up has been confirmed, and it's a rather poor line up in my opinion this year.

Another reason for me not to watch. Although John Sergeant may be fun.

Jodie Kidd and Lisa Snowden there I see, top TV talent as usual.

Lisa Snowden is fab.

Jodie Kidd is not as fab, but at least isn't Jodie Marsh.

On the day she was announced as Denise Van Outen's replacement on Jonny Vaughan's Capital Breakfast Show.

For ****'s sake, they've managed to spell the names of not one but TWO celebrities wrongly in the opening titles. It's "Cherie Lunghi" not "Cherie Lunghie", and "Christine Bleakley" not "Christine Bleakeley". Someone's too keen on their "e"s.

Nice vote of confidence from the Beeb there...

That is just terrible. I wonder if it can be corrected before series starts.

Well thats my Saturday nights sorted out.

I like SCD simply as it reminds me of Monday nights and the old Come Dancing. Dark horse for this year? I think Andrew Castle will do very well- but forget John Sargent!

And Sundays - 8pm - dragged out for an hour, taped 23 hours earlier.

So Brucie has implied this will be his final series - is he to be believed, or is he just saying it in the hope it'll finally get him a knighthood!

I thought it was pretty much in the bag that Bruce was getting a Knighthood in the Queen's Birthday honours. Seems that didn't happen.
