There’s a lot of people vastly over estimating just how many fans tom/mcfly have. Harry won ten years ago but he was actually really good (went on to tour rip it up with other ex strictly celebs). Toms success all depends on who else is announced. After the furlough thing I think a lot of people will be put off.I can actually see Tom leaving quite early (I hope) I don’t think he’s as well liked as the public think
when is the next announcement? Who will be the obligatory EE cast member this year?
yep 100% even the majority of the people in the McFly thread seem to dislike him.There’s a lot of people vastly over estimating just how many fans tom/mcfly have.

But he’s also just smug and insufferable and I think his quirky dad persona will wear thin quickly.
Everyone I’ve spoken to has been a bit about Tom Fletcher. There will be some die-hard McFly/McBusted fans and the Mumsnetters might vote for their High Priestess’s husband but I don’t think he’ll be a shoe-in because of popularity.There’s a lot of people vastly over estimating just how many fans tom/mcfly have.

Exactly! I want to watch John's dancing, I really don't care about any of the commentary surrounding the gender of his partner."first all male couple" honestly is there anybody that really gives a tit about this "first"?
just get on and dance, and dance well, and entertain us. No special or different treatment or highlighting is necessary these days. To me it just shows how backwards the BBC still are, if they really think they've broken boundaries with this. Pats on backs all round in their board rooms no doubt, meanwhile the real world just shrugs and wonders what took them so long.
‘Sesnsous’ was probably the wrong word - I suppose I was meaning more of a sense of connectivity and two people dancing as one ‘entity’ (whether in hold or not, and whether doing the exact same thing or not), rather than the Tweedledum/Tweedledee-ness of Katya & Nicola.I suppose it depends on the dances they do as well.
Nicola only did quickstep, jive and street I think? I don't think any of them are very sensual normally anyway. Also, I'm not sure she'd really settled into it, or suited Katya's slightly frantic style that well.
If John does things like AT, contemporary, salsa and works well with his partner, as well as some more traditional ballroom and Latin, it could be a completely different story! If he's a good dancer it will make a difference too.
(I wasn't meaning to contradict you by the way, I do think Nicola and Katya could have looked better together than they did. I just don't think it's very fair when people say Katya made it all side-by-side as an agenda thing, when it's stylistically normal for same-sex couples.)
Nicky Byrne did it a few years ago, Karen was his partner! Would love to see ShaneDo they have to have a McFly member every year? Arn't any of Westlife interested in joining up?
He was good! I’m surprised Shane didn’t do it after losing all that money (I know there’s more to it than the money but it might’ve raised his profile again)Nicky Byrne did it a few years ago, Karen was his partner! Would love to see Shane
Oh yes forgot about him.Nicky Byrne did it a few years ago, Karen was his partner! Would love to see Shane
Oh yes!!! What a shitter that was. Just think he focused on his solo career. Strictly might have helped with that!!He was good! I’m surprised Shane didn’t do it after losing all that money (I know there’s more to it than the money but it might’ve raised his profile again)
I hope they don’t go down the ‘obvious’ route of Johannes.I don’t know how tall John is, but I feel like Gio would be great in this partnership - his choreo is challenging and sizzling!
6'2 he said on the radio today, so one for the taller prosI don’t know how tall John is, but I feel like Gio would be great in this partnership - his choreo is challenging and sizzling!
