Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I looked on Twitter this morning and saw Brian Conley - their 'fun' contestant. I think they might have got their announcements muddled :-) Isn't it usually one contestant announced per day?

Don't have strong feelings either way about the first two but yes, autumn will well and truly be upon us when the glitterball starts soarkling again!

I hadn't seen Brian Conley announced, only the girl from The Saturdays whose individual members up until now I wasn't familiar with ;-)

I had seen a rumour that Mollie King was being lined up to take part, so not a surprise. Looking forward to the next announcements.

This reminds me that Autumn is not far away! I have no views on Mollie King and I have a vision in my head of Brian Conley doing comedic gurning through the dances - however I'm probably doing him a disservice as he has performed in quite a few stage musicals. I do like having my preconceptions changed though, it's happened quite a few times so far.

The beauty of this show is that it doesn't matter whether you know the peepholes or not, it's all down to talent and hardwork in the end.

I've never heard of Mollie before and I saw Brian Conley on stage in Singing In The Rain so he's not a complete novice to dancing.

He could be an early dark horse! Isn't his brother the warm-up man for the show?
