Apart from Luke Goss looks like they announced the best ones first. Last 3 I have never heard of.
Must say I got a bit excited this morning when they were giving clues and said there was a Ted Lasso link and I thought they were going to announce Hannah Waddingham so I was very disappointed when someone else came out through the curtain.

I know Ellie Taylor as she's been on Mock the Week and The Mash Report.
Strictly also has two Ellies which is unique, they don't usually have two celebrities that have the same name.

Ellie Taylor can come over as a bit smug at times but she did a good job on Pottery Throwdown
She has very long legs which might help her...

Fluer East just announced.
Smart career move given she has that new film coming out next month with Samantha Barks.
Despite all that hair, I'm expecting dynamic things from her.

New celebrity announcement on Facebook- Countryfile and CBeebies presenter Hamza Yassin. Never heard of him.
However I have a hunch that he might do well.

I'm guessing the final two will be announced tomorrow. No, they have to go through the rounds with one person getting eliminated each week providing three months of entertainment before we get to the last two pairings |

I'm guessing the final two will be announced tomorrow. Don't forget they'll have one or two unannounced in stand-by, in the event of any injury, like they did with Kelvin Fletcher who only went on to with the bloody thing! And good he was too! |

One final name for the list. Helen Skelton.
I have actively avoided her since her woeful efforts during the 2012 Olympic coverage.
Certainly not one I will be hoping will make it very far in the competition

Helen had been rumoured for some time. Out of the final 15 I ahve heard of 9 of them. Not sure how that compares to previous years but soem are hardly celebrities.Although the current definition of celebrity seems to have altered substantially from my youth!

Will it be Kaye Adams or Helen Skelton who annoys me most this year? Only including Nadine Dorries could make it worse.....Still Tess will be there to outdo them when it comes to constant irritation and charmless, talented vacuity.

Very competitive, but her height may put her at a disadvantage.
On the most recent run of that Channel 5 farm programme, she basically showed her husband what an idiot he is. She'll be able to do that x10 on Strictly. "Could we maybe go a couple of inches higher Vicky?" Good for her.
There is also a theatre link. She takes over from Laura Whitmore, the famous actress, tomorrow morning on Five Live.
