    Cheryl rumoured to be taking over from Darcy, all I can say is WTF does she know about ballroom dancing or any dancing?

    I think she did a bit of ballet and other dancing growing up!

    THAT woman is being rumoured for Darcey's job? THAT woman?

    Seriously, what is the world coming to?!?!? :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    That woman makes Ashley Roberts look like Shakira - and that says a lot.

    If Ashley got the job, I probably wouldn't be inclined to watch the show - but I'd still follow it on here and on other *reliable* sites. But in the (surely) highly unlikely event that that ridiculous rumour turned out to be true, and THAT woman got the job... well, I'd stop following the show altogether. Plain and simple. :mad: :o

    I'd probably consider it one of the worst moves the BBC ever made, too. And that would say a lot as well. :o

    I've danced my entire life but it still wouldn't qualify me to judge a professional competition.

    There's a rumour on the Strictly Facebook page that Darcey's ex ballet partner might have been approached.

    I think it should be Natalie Lowe or Aliona Vilani.

    No , didn't watch it tbh .
    I think it should be one of the ex professional dancers that should be a judge , or at least considered way before Cheryl Cole , or whatever name she uses now is .

    I'd say Anton is eager to do it, begging the door down to get on the judging panel

    He'll not get it. He's still needed for the pro dance.

    The judges will be dancing with the contestants this year. That should be interesting.

    I don't see the appeal of this at all and it's not needed, it'll be too much like the voice now, the judges should be that and judge... from a far...

    Eh it’s all right when the join in on a group performance and Craig is just about ok in that ( he does the exact same Charleston move in every group performance). At least Shirley can dance.

    I love seeing the judges dance on the RTE version so maybe it'll be fun here too.

    Do they dance with contestants as suggested on Strictly or do you mean group dances like Strictly ?

    Catherine Tyldesley who played Eva Price in Coronation Sreet is meant to be in talks with producers!

    Yeah I actually thought she’d have been in last years Strictly. Would be great for Anton to get someone who can bend ( in his own words)!!

    Still think we could dye Katie Derhams hair, spray tan her, and give her a new name.

    Daily mail is reporting Harry Judd as top contender to take judging role. I don’t know about that, it should be someone from the professional dancing world. I was thinking Natalie Lowe, Aliona Vilani or someone we don’t know. Harry is my favorite past contestant and I was even watching his Vienesse waltz yesterday on YouTube and commenting on his actual dance skill as opposed to Joe Sugg who danced to the same song this year. But Harry as a judge, I really don’t know.

    Yeah it really should be a professional. I thought Alesha was just ok, certainly wasn’t terrible as judging but why take her on and get rid of Arlene Philips I don’t know.
