Your fantasy Strictly line-up
The Strictly Come Dancing launch show is just around the corner and with that in mind, we at SCD-HQ have been wondering who would be in YOUR fantasy Strictly line-up?
Would you like to see Obama hit the SCD dancefloor, Tutankhamen Tango or have a music mania line-up with bopping Beethoven, Madonna attempting the mash potato or Elvis shake those snaking hips?
The fantasy world of Strictly is your oyster so get involved and share you thoughts with the nation below!

I thought that would have been just me ;) While they are at it, perhaps they could also asset-strip the Merlin show? Be interesting to find out if Tony Steward Head(Buffy's Giles, now Merlin's Uther) can shift or not. Speaking of Merlin-type shows, might also be worth people like Ray Fiennes and Eva Green keeping a nervous eye out for strictly press-gangs armed with giant butterfly nets? Harry Potter crowd by all means, especially as their filiming should be done now.Fewer politicians and more musicians might help the dancers stick to the rules. Has Jools Holland had a go?

ianswifey@36... Disagree with your "no oldies" comment. Not only is it ageist, it also suggests that programmes which consist of people all below a certain age are more entertaining, which is blatently incorrect except for perhaps 14 year olds who are naturally opposed to anything outside of their world.
