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 really wanted Gemma to do well...but she didn't. Hope to see some improvement next week.
In fact until Joe and Katya came on and did the jive I thought the ballroom dancers would be high scoring and those doing Latin would 'fail'. ..
Then Debbie rocks up with her Paso....
Aston did very well but wasnt my personal favourite as I don't like the foxtrot much....
Ruth surprised me. I thought she would be better than that.
As for Craigs scoring? Ridiculous. Ranged between 2-8.
I thought Shirley Ballas was great. Didn't actually miss Len at all...

Not easy this Strictly game. Apparently, according to this report, Aston dropped Janette whilst trying to do a 'complicated lift' during practice on Wednesday.....http://metro.co.uk/2017/09/28/strictly-come-dancings-janette-manrara-given-medical-attention-after-l...
