Meet our class of 2017!

“I’m having to pinch myself because it’s been a dream of mine for the longest time.”

“You never know I could be a secret ballroom, waltz assassin.”

“This show... I know it’ll be something I’ll never forget...where am I?”

“The glitter, the glamour, the fake tan, bring it on. It’s going to be amazing.”

“It’s just one of those shows... you feel like you’ve won the lottery”

“I’m really up for trying all the sequin clothes... It’s quite liberating actually.”

“I think I sometimes do some shocking things on the dance floor but we won’t go there”

“I don’t think you’d say I was a dance of any sorts, my mum thinks I’m like Bambi on ice”

“I’m slightly nervous about the spray tans, I don’t want to go the full oompa-loompa.”

“My friends would describe my current level of dancing as...non-existent?

“My signature dance move is probably the finger point...”

“To dress up a lot and be spray tanned... it’s a burden I’ll reluctantly shoulder.”

“You can’t get this wrong and you can’t let down your professional partner.”

“Once you’ve had kids... a part of your back no longer coordinates with your hips."

“I am willing to be spray tanned... and sequinned because that’s what Strictly is about.”
