    Not difficult.  Some of the "celebs" are definitely C or D list before they get on Strictly and, thankfully, many fade away again as they are voted off.

  • Some slebs do very well off the back of strictly, Stacy Dooley, Joe Sugg, Kelvin Fletcher, Alex Scott.

    I think you are being very kind to some of the celebs by putting them as high as C or D list.

    @barry island Joe Sugg has done insanely well. From what I can see, the number of views on his videos is declining, growing out of pranking your mates hasn't proven popular with some people, but he's had a lot of opportunities offered to him to pursue all kinds of things. Turns out he's a pretty talented bloke.
  • Strictly gives lesser known folk an opportunity to become household names … then,  if they have talent, application and luck they can capitalise on that, improve their career and move  much nearer to the beginning of the alphabet.

  • The professionals have moved on and new ones arrived, I don't particularly miss Kristina Rihanoff, James Jordan, Brendan Cole or even Kevin Clifton, a regular change is good for a long running series as long as the conveyor belt keeps bringing interesting performers to the show.

    Aljaz has announced that he won't be returning for the next series. A shame.
    Also it would appear Craig has done a U turn with regard to Bruno.

    I'm not clicking on that link for obvious reasons! But I expect he was 'encouraged' to put a positive spin on it, given that he seems to have been in a minority of one in wanting Bruno back instead of Anton 🤣

    Shall I start a new thread for this year?

    Good idea @LG_:)
    The link was sent to me by a friend, she was somewhat cynical about the apparent change of heart.

    Me too - but it doesn't really matter whether he means it:
    Anton replaces Bruno ✔️
    Craig continues to do his job well ✔️
