Yes. I'm not fussed if we have a politician, and would probably prefer not to have one. Have we got any newsreaders yet? If there's an announcement on Good Morning Britain, it could be Charlotte Hawkins or Sean Fletcher (he seems to be moving more to the BBC). I would really hope Piers Morgan wouldn't get a look in.

My guess is a couple of sports stars, a One Show/BBC presenter, a musician and someone who hasn't been rumoured at all!

I'd love it if the Johnnie Peacock rumour turned out to be true!

I would really hope Piers Morgan would n't get a look in. 😸 Sorry d'James , couldn't resist. I think Piers Morgan is good value for money and actually quite like him.

A few more names have cropped up overnight - Debbie McGee, Charlotte Hawkins, Chizzy Akudolu (Holby City actress). Only Charlotte has confirmed her participation, live on GMB, but the other two have been revealed by tabloids, presumably ignoring the embargo on releasing names to the public! There's three more to go - apparently to be revealed on The One Show - and the Sun/Mirror etc appear to be allowing the BBC to have this reveal tonight!

Charlotte's a good signing, - I was just relieved it wasn't Jeremy Vile when I turned on this morning! I think there are still 4 more, going by the tweet BBC sent out last night.
Still no sports people.

It's strange. 'Strictly' is at the height of its powers and yet, this year looks to be one of the most uninspiring C-list selections for a long time.

I've never heard of her, but then I never watch TV in the morning. As Sheryl Lee Ralph said, 'In the evening, the real me comes alive' god I love that song!!

I've never heard of her, but then I never watch TV in the morning. She's posh totty I think and should be popular. I don't have feelings either way. Personally I much prefer the Morgan/Reid sparring that goes on on morning telly, and I also enjoy Piers Morgan's rants but, like most people, don't really sit down and watch it.

Looks like there's just one to get if three of the last four are Burke, Chizzy and Debbie McGee.

On that note, I'm really disappointed by this year's lineup after a great lineup for the last three years. Nobody for me really this year.

She looks like she might be a bit naughty! 2 from Holby? Horse. Dead. Flogging. come to mind. If Lee Mead can't make me watch it nothing will...

This may be a bit left-field, but what about Miranda Hart? We know she's a superfan, and she's finished with Annie by mid-September. It could almost have been planned!
If not this year, she will do it one year. I'd put money on it.

They really shouldn't be playing too much on her Holby connection considering they've already got a Holby cast member on the lineup. It just makes it seem a bit lazy.

This may be a bit left-field, but what about Miranda Hart? Brilliant! (But maybe not in the same year as Richard Osman...who I am still hoping will be the un-rumoured reveal of this year...)

The last one has got to be from the sports arena, surely?
