what a lovely surprise!!! Kellie on the dancefloor, I can't wait. I bet she is a very elegant dancer. Hope this doesn't interfere too much with the EE schedule though. I'd hate to miss out on those quality moments with Linda. |

I expect with Kathy and Gavin arriving, Shabnam losing her baby and the Beales losing the plot, this autumn/winter will probably be a bit less busy for the Carters (in fact they seem to be less prominent already this summer), so it should be quite easy to work around Kellie's absence. |

This is going to be so good! So much better to have real celebs like Kellie and Jake Wood than d-list 70s Stars nobody knows:) I can imagine Kellie being good and being very competetive |

I think Kellie will be great on the dance floor. And to be honest, she could just continue doing behind the bar side-line character work whilst filming. |

Wayhey! That's my favourite sorted. (and perhaps this means that there won't be as much Carters over Winter this year!?) |

Interesting news. Seems as though the reigning in of the Carters is set to continue. |

I don't watch Strictly and have always favoured X Factor. However, this year, the line-up looks SO good so far, and I'm seriously tempted to move camps! |
Massive thanks to NickM for this wonderful signature! ![]()

Brilliant news! There is normally an EastEnders actor in strictly each year but I would never have guessed it would have been Kellie, maybe she can get some tips off Letitia! |

Or from Matt di Angelo! He did a lot better than our Tish. |

Remember the "Jelly Wallace" fiasco... |
| "I loved it in the Olden Days because you talked more. There’s more action now. You know, we would do scenes in the Rovers of me, Bet and Doris Speed with a cup of coffee each before we opened the pub, talking about absolute rubbish. But it was something, and it was what people do." - Betty Driver | |

I think Matt should have won that year (2007) I'm sure she will get lots of great advice from him. I always watch strictly but I'm looking forward to it even more now! |

Here are all the cast members that have taken part so far: Christopher Parker (2nd) Jill Halfpenny (1st) Patsy Palmer (5th) Louisa Lytton (4th) Tish Dean (4th) Matt di Angelo (2nd) Phil Daniels (first male to leave) Gillian Taylforth (first female to leave) Jessie Wallace (second female to leave) Zoe Lucker (10th - a shock boot mid-series) Ricky Groves (6th) Natalie Cassidy (5th) Jimi Mistry (10th) Scott Maslen (4th) Kara Tointon (1st) Anita Dobson (7th) Sid Owen (12th) Denise van Outen (Runner up) Jake Wood (5th) I wonder if maybe we will see an Ex-EastEnder in this year's line up? Maybe someone like Shaun Williamson or even Barbara Windsor. |

Thanks for posting that. I'd forgotten about Gillian, she was partnered with my favourite dancer, Anton but of course left really early. I was about to mention of the current cast of course Jake but Natalie too. To this day I still don't understand how Chris Parker was runner up, he was dreadful! |
