It's that time of year again....Some love it and others hate it....
However, BBC have announced the first 'celebrity' to join the line up for Strictly Come Dancing 2017.
It's Mollie King from the girl band The Saturdays (Frankie Bridge from the same group appeared in 2014)
Mollie King....

I think BBC exceeded the budget with Celebrity Masterchef....They had 20 'celebs' on that show. They probably thought their flagship show (SCD) would pull in viewers regardless of who they dragged in off the street...

@sheepdog in disillusioned mode ?
Not quite, I'd be in that mode if all I had was the X-factor to contend with on a saturday/sunday evening. Mind you, we now have a HD TV so Strictly may take on a new life or one that is so nauseating seeing everything in HD that I want to turn it off!

Thanks for the reminder @Cleoriff. Looking forward to it, especially the tribute to Sir Bruce. Particularly interested to see who Anton is paired up with this year 😊
I just hope he gets someone with a chance. It's so obvious every year that he gets the joke contestant...which is a shame. Problem is Anton is a damn good dancer and you rarely get to see his full range of dancing skills when he is paired with the comedy celebrity.
Just to add, Anton isn't my favourite professional at all ...but I do think they should mix it up a bit....
