So Joe Sugg’s thread isn’t totally turned into a Strictly thread.
I really hope the saffron rumours aren’t true, not just because she is an awful person but I don’t think I can deal with another year of crazy stansWill we get another YouTuber in the line up this year?
Sadly, for as long as Strictly continues with its crazed voting system, I think you have to accept that another Youtuber is almost inevitable. Craig Russell Horwood is on record as saying that he likes the fact they bring a younger audience with them.Apparently saffron barker is doing it this year

Yeah you are right about the fact that everyone brings a following, it just seems that social media stars bring an unbearable armySadly, for as long as Strictly continues with its crazed voting system, I think you have to accept that another Youtuber is almost inevitable. Craig Russell Horwood is on record as saying that he likes the fact they bring a younger audience with them.
It seems almost de rigueur that a Celeb brings an audience with them, otherwise they are unlikely to survive, unless their Pro Dancer has a healthy online following. Post-Sugg, it cannot be an accident that some of the Pros have upped their online presence - cynically, you might almost say that it has to be part of their dancing armoury. Plus, it brings them influencer benefits
And who will be the fourth Judge? Male or female? Is Anton destined to be always the bridemaid, cursed by the God of Crap Dancers?
The only possibilities I have read about recently were James Cracknell; Scarlett Moffatt (who is leaving IACGMOOH) Huw Edrwards; Louis Theroux; Tim Lovejoy; Radzi Chinyanganya and maybe Andy Murray, though I don't see that if he intends to compete in the US Open.Anyone heard any other rumours on who’s doing it this year ?
I forgot to mention Dawn French. SorryAnyone heard any other rumours on who’s doing it this year ?
She is brilliant honestly I think people will love her! Watched her judge on other shows and she is great, she was also a judge on the German strictly when oti was a pro and was completely professional and unbiased.Not sure about Oti’s sister being a judge. Going to be too easy if Oti is in bottom two, if she saves Oti call bias, or if it’s the other way, say she didn’t save Oti to stop the bias accusations.
But overall I don’t completely care. I don’t know anything about her, but if she is as full on as Oti, I think she might annoy me. I will miss the understated class of Darcey.
I’m sure she will be an impartial judge it’s those knobs who are going to be saying shite like that. I haven’t seen her on anything else, haven’t seen German Strictly or anything so it will be a new experience for me.She is brilliant honestly I think people will love her!

Yeah that’s true! At the end of the day most people watching will realise very quickly that she is a brilliant judge and personality, but almost every judge and pro that’s been on strictly has been criticised at some point so if people still want to moan about her then that’s their problemI’m sure she will be an impartial judge it’s those knobs who are going to be saying shite like that. I haven’t seen her on anything else, haven’t seen German Strictly or anything so it will be a new experience for me.
Now the judges are accounced, I imagine it will be in the next week or two that celebs start getting announced for Strictly. Can’t wait.
That’s really sad! I do agree to an extent, a lot of it nowadays is about putting on a show etc but I think they do still focus on technique.its less about the dancing these days which saddens me. my dad (still a dance teacher with his own dance school) is 76 and still teaching, he was involved with the original making of the show. he won't watch it anymore as its more about the showmanship and lesser and lesser about the technique
as for the token youtuber going on the show......sarah ingham?
