0:14:39 > 0:14:43Craig, have you got high hopes for this year's cast?

0:14:43 > 0:14:46Well, yes, except the fact that the standard last year,

0:14:46 > 0:14:50I have to say, was so high, the gauntlet has been laid down.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52So it's going to be a tough act to follow.

0:14:52 > 0:14:53It certainly is.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56Darcey, what would you like to see from our celebrities this year?

0:15:16 > 0:15:19So let's meet our first batch of boys,

0:15:19 > 0:15:21Gregg Wallace, Jake Wood, Steve Backshall, and Thom Evans.

0:15:21 > 0:15:25CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:15:25 > 0:15:28On tonight's menu, MasterChef's Gregg Wallace.

0:15:28 > 0:15:29I am famous, I think,

0:15:29 > 0:15:33for my sweet tooth, tubby belly, bald head, and glasses. Haha!

0:15:33 > 0:15:37Anyone who knows me knows that I'm just constantly telling jokes.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40I once had a job sweeping up in a glitter factory.

0:15:40 > 0:15:43It was pretty rubbish(!)

0:15:43 > 0:15:47I am slightly concerned that I'm actually 40-10 in a little while.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50A lot of contestants will be much younger and fitter than me. But...

0:15:50 > 0:15:52they may not have as much enthusiasm.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54Or be as aerodynamic!

0:15:55 > 0:16:00I am really nervous of Craig because he was a contestant on MasterChef.

0:16:00 > 0:16:01Unusual!

0:16:01 > 0:16:04I wish I had let him win now! Ha!

0:16:04 > 0:16:06I don't mind admitting right now

0:16:06 > 0:16:10the idea of performing in front of a live audience,

0:16:10 > 0:16:11it is scary, very scary.

0:16:11 > 0:16:15Is it all right if John Torrode comes with me? He doesn't have to dance!

0:16:15 > 0:16:18He can just walk around behind me. I feel safe then!

0:16:18 > 0:16:21EASTENDERS THEME PLAYS

0:16:27 > 0:16:29He has been buried alive, run over by his daughter,

0:16:29 > 0:16:32he is also currently the suspect in a murder trial.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34There is not a lot he hasn't done in nine years.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36It is not what it looks like.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38People call me Max, wherever I go.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40It would be lovely if just once somebody called me Jake!

0:16:40 > 0:16:42It is Jake.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47Got a nine-year-old daughter, Emma, six-year-old boy, Buster,

0:16:55 > 0:16:59It is so out of my comfort zone. Bring it on.

0:16:59 > 0:17:04He is no stranger to danger, but will Deadly 60 wildlife presenter,

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Steve Backshall, be able to survive his Strictly adventure?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10I genuinely spend my entire life diving with sharks

0:17:10 > 0:17:15or catching snakes, up to my neck in a swamp, looking for alligators.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18But I have the feeling I'm about to encounter

0:17:18 > 0:17:19something far more terrifying.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21Craig Revel Horwood!

0:17:21 > 0:17:25I think I'm quite a blokey bloke. I have zero experience in dancing.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27The closest I can come is martial arts.

0:17:27 > 0:17:31I am certainly good and flexible, but it is a completely new world for me.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34But that is really exciting. TIGER ROARS

0:17:34 > 0:17:36In my job we have had a lot of close calls.

0:17:36 > 0:17:37Oi!

0:17:37 > 0:17:40But, genuinely, I am not just saying this,

0:17:40 > 0:17:42what I'm about to do scares me far, far more.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Let's hope that on the dance floor I turn out to be more like a puma

0:17:45 > 0:17:47than a hippopotamus.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49GROWLS

0:17:51 > 0:17:53Rugby star and model, Thom Evans,

0:17:56 > 0:17:59I was an international rugby player for Scotland,

0:17:59 > 0:18:00which I am immensely proud about.

0:18:00 > 0:18:04And through for the try, Thom Evans!

0:18:04 > 0:18:06I sadly suffered a career-ending injury.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08He went down and stayed down.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11It was a close shave. I'm so grateful for how lucky I was.

0:18:11 > 0:18:15These days I am probably known more for taking my top off.

0:18:19 > 0:18:24I have done calendars, photo shoots, I'm certainly not shy.

0:18:24 > 0:18:25I have always loved dancing.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28Myself and my brother spent hours on end learning the choreography

0:18:28 > 0:18:30to Bye Bye Bye, by NSync.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Very. Very, very, very ready.

0:19:01 > 0:19:03Have you got your eye on anyone in particular?

0:19:03 > 0:19:05I know who I'd like, but you don't want to say, do you?

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Play your cards close to your chest. Best at this stage.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10All right, we've got eight fabulous female dancers

0:20:31 > 0:20:33- Yes.- I will tell you who your partner is right now,

0:20:33 > 0:20:36if you tell me what happened to Lucy Beale.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38LAUGHTER Think she got murdered.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40Oh! Wanted you to spill the beans!

0:20:40 > 0:20:42There's about four people in the world who know

0:20:42 > 0:20:45who killed Lucy Beale, I'm not one of them, unfortunately.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48- Oh, you're not privy to that information?- I wish I did know.- OK.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51Well, the person you'll be sharing the drama with is...

0:20:53 > 0:20:54Have a little look.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57- Anyone you've got your eye on? - No-one too tall.- No-one too tall!

0:21:32 > 0:21:35CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:21:35 > 0:21:37I didn't really recognise you, Steve!

0:21:37 > 0:21:38I don't even recognise myself!

0:21:38 > 0:21:40I keep catching myself in the mirror, going,

0:21:40 > 0:21:43"Who is that, and what are they wearing?!"

0:21:43 > 0:21:44And then I see it is me!

0:21:44 > 0:21:47I guess there is not a lot of call for sequins in your normal work?

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Not really! I spend a lot of time in the wilderness on expeditions

0:21:49 > 0:21:52trying NOT to be seen, wearing camouflage from head to toe.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55- And all of a sudden I am a walking mirror ball!- Yes!

0:21:55 > 0:21:57- Are you ready to meet your dance partner?- Yes.

0:22:36 > 0:22:40CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:22:40 > 0:22:42Now then, you obviously have a sporting background

0:22:42 > 0:22:45which means you must have a competitive instinct,

0:22:45 > 0:22:47is that going to come out in the ballroom?

0:22:47 > 0:22:49I think having been a professional sportsman it is safe to say

0:22:49 > 0:22:52there is always going to be that competitive side to me,

0:22:52 > 0:22:55but like everyone else here I'm just here to have a lot of fun

0:22:55 > 0:22:57and give it my best shot.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59- Are you ready to meet your lady? - I would love to.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:23:34 > 0:23:38So let's find out what our judges make of our first four couples. Len?

0:23:38 > 0:23:42- Yes?- What do you think?- I think it is a terrific four.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45But the one I'm going to watch out for is Thom.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48He is used to being in a scrum, and with Iveta,

0:23:48 > 0:23:51they are going to be...scrumptious!

0:23:51 > 0:23:55- Oh, yes!- You thought about that one, didn't you?

0:23:55 > 0:23:56Claudia, over to you.

0:23:56 > 0:24:00Thank you, Tess. I'm here with our first four paired couples.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:24:02 > 0:24:04It's a relief, isn't it?

0:24:04 > 0:24:07Jake, describe to us, how terrifying is it, waiting?

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Actually quite nerve-racking, more than I thought it would be.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11But I am delighted with Jeanette.

0:24:11 > 0:24:14She is a fantastic dancer and no-nonsense American,

0:24:14 > 0:24:16- which is what I was hoping for. - Yeah! OK, good!

0:24:16 > 0:24:18Now, Steve, you walking glitter ball.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20Ola has won the Strictly championship before.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23She has lifted the glitter ball. Is that more nerve-racking for you?

0:24:23 > 0:24:25I don't think so, no.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28Actually, I have a friend who is a dancer, and beforehand she said,

0:24:28 > 0:24:30"You want Ola because she can make anyone look good."

0:24:30 > 0:24:32Meaning, "Even you!"

0:24:32 > 0:24:35That is fantastic. You are a wonderful pairing.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Iveta, I am so sorry that we put you with somebody

0:24:37 > 0:24:39so physically repellent.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41LAUGHTER

0:24:41 > 0:24:43Whoa!

0:24:43 > 0:24:45Iveta, you have never been speechless before!

0:24:45 > 0:24:47All we do is, "chat, chat, chat"!

0:28:24 > 0:28:27"Three weeks, yeah, get me on that dance floor"?

0:28:27 > 0:28:30No, Claudia, I think, how do I get out of this contract?

0:28:30 > 0:28:31- I need to go now!- Too late!

0:28:31 > 0:28:35Frankie, how nerve racking is it, waiting?

0:28:35 > 0:28:38And I love the fact that you are all trying to guess who you are with.

0:28:38 > 0:28:40- Is it scary?- It is all we can talk about. We are also nervous about it.

0:28:40 > 0:28:43I think I'm more nervous about that than the actual dancing.

0:28:43 > 0:28:46- Then that is good. That is a good thing.- I don't know!

0:28:46 > 0:28:49Takes your mind off it! Think of it as a gift, Frankie!

0:28:49 > 0:28:53Judy, do you secretly in your head, think, "I know who I want"?

0:28:53 > 0:28:56- Somebody with a lot of patience and a sense of humour, for me.- Yes.

0:33:42 > 0:33:46TV presenter Caroline Flack is hoping to keep her emotions

0:33:46 > 0:33:49in check when she steps onto the dance floor.

0:33:49 > 0:33:50I'm quite giggly. I'm quite upbeat.

0:33:50 > 0:33:53But I think I'm a lot more sensitive

0:33:53 > 0:33:56than some people might assume.

0:33:56 > 0:33:59If I'm dancing to an emotional song there could be tears!

0:33:59 > 0:34:00That's quite sad!

0:34:00 > 0:34:04Before I worked in TV I pretty much did every job you could do.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07I picked daffodils for a living, I worked in a meat factory,

0:34:07 > 0:34:09I've been a magician's assistant

0:34:09 > 0:34:11so to me, a new challenge is always good.

0:34:11 > 0:34:14The thing I'm most scared about is what my face is going to do

0:34:14 > 0:34:16while I'm dancing.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18I don't know if I'm going to have one of those cheesy smiles.

0:34:18 > 0:34:19I have no idea!

0:34:19 > 0:34:21I'm excited about taking part in Strictly

0:34:21 > 0:34:24but I'm equally as nervous about getting up there and performing.

0:34:24 > 0:34:28I'm ready to be thrown into the world of glitter, glam and sequins.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30I'm ready to be Strictified.

0:34:31 > 0:34:35Actress Jennifer Gibney is better known to millions

0:34:35 > 0:34:38as Cathy Brown in award-winning comedy Mrs Brown's Boys.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59You do know Cathy Brown is a huge Strictly fan.

0:34:59 > 0:35:00Ta-da!

0:35:00 > 0:35:03She would be very jealous of all the men

0:35:03 > 0:35:06that she might have had the chance to dance with.

0:35:06 > 0:35:07I am really excited. I am looking forward to

0:35:07 > 0:35:10the hair, the make-up, the clothes,

0:35:10 > 0:35:11the shoes, the dancing,

0:35:11 > 0:35:15the tears, the laughter, the whole thing that is Strictly.

0:35:27 > 0:35:30writing songs since I was 13.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33I love it. I couldn't imagine doing anything else.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35I got nicknamed Pixie when I was born.

0:35:35 > 0:35:39It was pretty much down to the fact I was born seven weeks early

0:35:39 > 0:35:40so I was just really tiny.

0:35:42 > 0:35:44I did go to a performing arts school

0:35:44 > 0:35:46but we never did ballroom and Latin

0:35:46 > 0:35:48so it's a different discipline.

0:35:48 > 0:35:52A big challenge for me is not only am I doing my radio shows

0:35:52 > 0:35:55and live festivals,

0:35:55 > 0:35:57I'm also going to be doing Strictly.

0:35:57 > 0:35:59Whoever my dance partner is,

0:40:38 > 0:40:41who do you think is going to dance beautifully?

0:40:41 > 0:40:44Probably Jennifer because she has great poise,

0:40:44 > 0:40:46a lovely long back so she can really show it off.

0:47:28 > 0:47:32All my feet were moving around, but not always in the right direction.

0:47:32 > 0:47:35How do I make myself look less like a dumpling

0:47:35 > 0:47:36and more like a Dover sole?

0:47:36 > 0:47:38You're making me hungry.

0:47:41 > 0:47:43It's brilliant.

0:47:43 > 0:47:45- We'll wait. - You're putting me off!- We'll wait.

0:47:45 > 0:47:47- That's a winning dance. - How are you getting on?

0:47:47 > 0:47:50I'm sweating. I'm really sweating.

0:47:50 > 0:47:53I look as fresh as when I walked in the door.

0:47:53 > 0:47:55I've never been so tired in my life.

0:47:55 > 0:47:58Have you noticed how popular Tom is with the girls?

0:48:00 > 0:48:02Whoever gets him is a lucky girl.

0:48:04 > 0:48:07- Who do you want? - We won't tell anyone, Ola.

0:48:07 > 0:48:09- Who?- Tom, she wants Tom.

0:48:10 > 0:48:12'Loving it!'

0:48:12 > 0:48:14- Loving it?- And I'm loving this.

0:48:14 > 0:48:16Yes!

0:48:16 > 0:48:18The next time we do this dance is going to be

0:48:18 > 0:48:20in front of millions of people.

0:48:20 > 0:48:23If we can do it, it's going to be nuts!

0:48:23 > 0:48:27I don't feel ready, I don't feel prepared.

0:48:27 > 0:48:28So nervous.

0:48:29 > 0:48:31All I've got to say is...

0:48:31 > 0:48:33Bring it o-o-o-o-on!

0:48:33 > 0:48:35CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:48:35 > 0:48:39And we'll be seeing that routine a little bit later on.

0:48:39 > 0:48:41I'm so glad it's them and not us.

0:48:41 > 0:48:43Me too! And on that note,

0:48:43 > 0:48:45we're about to meet the next group of male celebrities,

0:48:45 > 0:48:48so let me introduce Simon Webbe, Tim Wonnacott,

0:48:48 > 0:48:50Scott Mills and Mark Wright.

0:48:50 > 0:48:52CHEERING

0:48:54 > 0:48:56As one quarter of boy band Blue,

0:48:56 > 0:48:59Simon Webbe sold over ten million records worldwide,

0:48:59 > 0:49:02so he should be right at home with a routine.

0:49:02 > 0:49:03Shouldn't he?

0:49:03 > 0:49:05We're not really renowned for dancing.

0:49:05 > 0:49:07There's one thing that I had to master,

0:49:07 > 0:49:08which was a shoulder movement.

0:49:08 > 0:49:11Shoulder, move, "a-ha". That one.

0:49:12 > 0:49:14I am competitive. I'm here to win it.

0:49:14 > 0:49:16I'm not here to mess around.

0:49:16 > 0:49:18One of the things that I have won recently

0:49:18 > 0:49:21is the 62nd sexiest man alive,

0:49:21 > 0:49:23which isn't too bad if you think about it.

0:49:24 > 0:49:27As soon as I found out that I was actually chosen to do the show,

0:49:27 > 0:49:28straight down the gym.

0:49:28 > 0:49:31Now, the dancers, Brendan -

0:49:31 > 0:49:33coming for you.

0:49:35 > 0:49:38I'm actually nervous, but I'm trying to hold it back.

0:49:38 > 0:49:41Let's just go! Let's go, let's go, let's go!

0:49:41 > 0:49:44Tim Wonnacott's used to finding treasures in Bargain Hunt,

0:49:44 > 0:49:47but will he bring any priceless moves to Strictly?

0:49:47 > 0:49:51For the last 1,137 Bargain Hunts that I've presented,

0:49:51 > 0:49:54every programme finishes with the teams and me

0:49:54 > 0:49:56throwing up their right leg

0:49:56 > 0:50:01and you could say I have been in training for Strictly for ten years.

0:50:01 > 0:50:04Coming on Strictly has every potential

0:50:04 > 0:50:06of being an unmitigated disaster.

0:50:06 > 0:50:08How am I going to go about it?

0:50:08 > 0:50:11I've never done spray-tan stuff,

0:50:11 > 0:50:13so am I going to take to it or not?

0:50:13 > 0:50:14I rather hope I am.

0:50:16 > 0:50:19My formal dancing experience is zero.

0:50:19 > 0:50:23I mean, I do disco dancing, I like flinging myself around.

0:50:23 > 0:50:27Wow. I may be one of the oldest contestants,

0:50:27 > 0:50:29but by gad, I've got some energy.

0:50:31 > 0:50:35Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills isn't the only one who's excited

0:50:35 > 0:50:37about him taking part this year.

0:50:37 > 0:50:38I really want to do Strictly.

0:50:38 > 0:50:41It's my mum's favourite show and when I told her,

0:50:41 > 0:50:44she didn't believe me at first and then she went, "Oh, Scott..."

0:50:44 > 0:50:46HE IMITATES EMOTIONAL GASPING

0:50:46 > 0:50:50My friends call me Scott Spills because I am very clumsy.

0:50:50 > 0:50:52I can get out of bed and literally fall over.

0:50:52 > 0:50:55If anyone falls, it will be me.

0:50:55 > 0:51:00I would be silly to say I'm not scared a little bit of Craig,

0:51:00 > 0:51:03but then I have interviewed some of the world's biggest divas.

0:51:03 > 0:51:05I can cope with Craig.

0:51:08 > 0:51:11I'm hoping the Radio 1 family will come out in force.

0:51:11 > 0:51:13Grimmy will be like, "Do you get a spray tan every week?

0:51:13 > 0:51:15"Obsessed with that."

0:51:15 > 0:51:19I like to do things that are completely out of my league,

0:51:19 > 0:51:21this the biggest one so far. I can't wait!

0:51:26 > 0:51:27As the star of The Only Way Is Essex,

0:51:27 > 0:51:32TV presenter Mark Wright was used to being the centre of attention.

0:51:32 > 0:51:34I'm kind of used to being on camera

0:51:34 > 0:51:37and having cameras following me around and following my life.

0:51:37 > 0:51:39However, this is a little bit different -

0:51:39 > 0:51:41sequins, spandex, dancing.

0:51:41 > 0:51:42Not done that before.

0:51:42 > 0:51:44I genuinely cannot dance.

0:51:44 > 0:51:47I get called Marky No Moves by my friends and family.

0:51:47 > 0:51:49At a party, I'll be the first on the dance floor

0:51:49 > 0:51:51and that's where I'm going to take this show.

0:51:51 > 0:51:54I'm going to have a laugh, but I want to do well.

0:51:54 > 0:51:57There is so many things to be excited about when it comes to Strictly.

0:51:57 > 0:52:00I keep moaning about the tight clothes and sequins,

0:52:00 > 0:52:03but secretly I can't wait to get 'em on.

0:52:03 > 0:52:06Everyone thinks I do, but I've never worn fake tan.

0:52:07 > 0:52:09I haven't!

0:52:09 > 0:52:11This is the toughest challenge I've ever had.

0:52:11 > 0:52:13There's only one thing I can do

0:52:13 > 0:52:14and that's go for it.

0:52:16 > 0:52:18CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:52:19 > 0:52:23And now, all rise - it's Simon Webbe from Blue!

0:52:23 > 0:52:25CHEERING Thank you.

0:52:27 > 0:52:29You performed in the Christmas special a few years ago.

0:52:29 > 0:52:32- You've got a musical background, of course.- Mm-hmm.

0:52:32 > 0:52:34And you have said you're in it to win it.

0:52:34 > 0:52:36That's right, but all that experience has gone out the window now.

0:52:36 > 0:52:37- Has it?- Yeah, I'm here.

0:52:37 > 0:52:40I'm looking to someone to whip me into shape.

0:52:40 > 0:52:42Well, I'm sensing some serious potential here.

0:52:42 > 0:52:45Mm-hmm! Are you sure you're quite ready for this?

0:52:45 > 0:52:48- Just don't play that music that you play.- OK.

0:52:48 > 0:52:53Cue the grams. The dancer you'll be making sweet music with

0:52:53 > 0:52:55is...

0:52:59 > 0:53:01- It's Kristina! - WHOOPING

0:53:06 > 0:53:08Yes!

0:53:20 > 0:53:22- Now, next up... - Now...

0:53:22 > 0:53:27..I'm here with Bargain Hunt's Tim Wonnacott, you dapper chap, you!

0:53:27 > 0:53:29WHOOPING AND APPLAUSE

0:53:29 > 0:53:32Is it right that you wanted to do this show

0:53:32 > 0:53:34because your wife wants you to learn to dance?

0:53:34 > 0:53:36We've been married 30 years this year

0:53:36 > 0:53:40and I don't dance ballroom with her cos I don't dance ballroom

0:53:40 > 0:53:42and she does, so it seemed rather a sweet thing

0:53:42 > 0:53:44to try and learn how to dance ballroom.

0:53:44 > 0:53:46- AUDIENCE: Aww! - Very romantic gesture!

0:53:46 > 0:53:48- Isn't that lovely?- Well...

0:53:49 > 0:53:51Let's find out the lady who's going to teach you.

0:53:51 > 0:53:54I can tell you, Tim, your winning lot is...

0:54:02 > 0:54:04It's Natalie!

0:54:08 > 0:54:11Wow! Look at that!

0:54:11 > 0:54:12Yes!

0:54:12 > 0:54:14Gorgeous! Happy?

0:54:14 > 0:54:16- Yes!- Very, very, very happy.

0:54:16 > 0:54:17Thoroughly tickled pink.

0:54:19 > 0:54:22- Who wouldn't be?- And I think your wife will be very happy too.

0:54:22 > 0:54:23Natalie, going to kick him into shape?

0:54:23 > 0:54:26- We're going to have the time of our lives.- We certainly are.

0:54:26 > 0:54:28- Yes. - LAUGHTER

0:54:28 > 0:54:29I think they will too.

0:54:29 > 0:54:32Natalie, you've got yourself a bargain. Off you go.

0:54:32 > 0:54:33Tim and Natalie.

0:54:33 > 0:54:35Thank you very much.

0:54:37 > 0:54:39WHOOPING AND APPLAUSE

0:54:40 > 0:54:42We now have our final two male celebrities

0:54:42 > 0:54:45and two remaining female pros.

0:54:45 > 0:54:49So please come on over, Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills.

0:54:49 > 0:54:51CHEERING

0:54:51 > 0:54:53Come on, Scott.

0:54:54 > 0:54:57From spinning tunes to spinning round the dance floor.

0:54:57 > 0:54:58It's a big change.

0:54:58 > 0:55:01It is. Whoever I get from these two lovely girls,

0:55:01 > 0:55:04it's going to be a challenge, but, you know, I hope they're up for it.

0:55:04 > 0:55:07Shall we find out who your partner is?

0:55:07 > 0:55:09It's either going to be Karen or it's going to be Joanne.

0:55:09 > 0:55:14Scott, you will be dancing cheek to cheek with...

0:55:22 > 0:55:23It's Joanne!

0:55:30 > 0:55:31Oh, I say!

0:55:31 > 0:55:33Lovely moves, Scott!

0:55:35 > 0:55:38- Now that's what I call a great start.- I'm so happy.

0:55:38 > 0:55:41- Are you ready to face the music with Joanne?- Yes.

0:55:41 > 0:55:44I didn't want to say this before, but I was secretly hoping for Joanne.

0:55:44 > 0:55:46Aww, isn't that lovely?

0:55:46 > 0:55:50Love a happy ending - off you go, Scott and Joanne.

0:55:50 > 0:55:52Go on, upstairs.

0:55:58 > 0:56:00- CHEERING - Come on over, Mark.

0:56:00 > 0:56:02Now then, just take a wild guess.

0:56:02 > 0:56:04Who do you reckon your partner might be?

0:56:04 > 0:56:07Hmm, even being from Essex, I think I can guess.

0:56:07 > 0:56:09It's the wonderful Karen.

0:56:09 > 0:56:11It's Karen! Come on over, Karen.

0:56:17 > 0:56:20His mates call him Marky No Moves.

0:56:20 > 0:56:22- Are you going to change that? - Are you going to change it?

0:56:22 > 0:56:24I think so. I hope so.

0:56:24 > 0:56:25Yes, she'll change that.

0:56:25 > 0:56:27Your mates won't be calling you that any more, Mark,

0:56:27 > 0:56:28not when we've finished with you.

0:56:28 > 0:56:30Off you go upstairs. Thank you very much.

0:56:30 > 0:56:34- Mark and Karen. - WHOOPING AND APPLAUSE

0:56:34 > 0:56:37So now let's chat to the judges.

0:56:37 > 0:56:40Craig, all of our male celebrities have now been paired up.

0:56:40 > 0:56:42Who are you most looking forward to judging?

0:56:42 > 0:56:46I'm dying to see Gregg Wallace dance, darling.

0:56:46 > 0:56:49He said some very nasty things to me...

0:56:49 > 0:56:51- Oh, no!- ..on Celebrity MasterChef

0:56:51 > 0:56:53and I don't know whether I should forgive him.

0:56:54 > 0:56:56All right, well, thank you, judges.

0:56:56 > 0:56:58Claudia, what's happening where you are?

0:56:58 > 0:57:01It's like the end of a school disco up here, Tess -

0:57:01 > 0:57:04everybody is coupled up, I am playing gooseberry,

0:57:04 > 0:57:07everybody's reaction is totally fabulous.

0:57:07 > 0:57:10Simon, everybody thinks you're in a boy band, you've danced a lot,

0:57:10 > 0:57:13but basically you've said you can only really do a shoulder shuffle.

0:57:13 > 0:57:14Could we just have a look at that?

0:57:14 > 0:57:18Show Kristina, blow her mind right here and now.

0:57:18 > 0:57:19Uh-huh, uh-huh.

0:57:20 > 0:57:22- Is that enough? - LAUGHTER

0:57:22 > 0:57:24Erm, not really.

0:57:24 > 0:57:25Good luck, Kristina.

0:57:25 > 0:57:29Tim and Natalie, that was the reaction of the night.

0:57:29 > 0:57:34- You fell to the floor, Natalie. - I know! I've wanted you all along.

0:57:34 > 0:57:38Me too. It's just been a match made in heaven, I would say.

0:57:38 > 0:57:40We've had a great time in rehearsals.

0:57:40 > 0:57:43- We just... - Yeah, it was a good click

0:57:43 > 0:57:46- and anything could happen from now on in, couldn't it?- Yeah.

0:57:46 > 0:57:50Yes. Scott, Joanne is the current world champion,

0:57:50 > 0:57:55so what are you bringing to the table? She's the queen right now.

0:57:55 > 0:57:59- Of everything, of the world. - I can bring a lot of fun.- OK, good.

0:57:59 > 0:58:00And laughs, probably,

0:58:00 > 0:58:03but we genuinely get on and we danced a little bit in the group dance,

0:58:03 > 0:58:06which you'll see, so I'm really looking forward to it.

0:58:06 > 0:58:09All right, fantastic. Mark, you were the last boy to be paired up.

0:58:09 > 0:58:10I assume just total heaven for you.

0:58:10 > 0:58:12I am absolutely buzzing.

0:58:12 > 0:58:15Every single morning we go in, Karen is just smiling, she's so kind,

0:58:15 > 0:58:18and I need someone to not be too harsh to me.

0:58:18 > 0:58:20She needs to be quite friendly. AUDIENCE GROANS

0:58:20 > 0:58:22OK...

0:58:22 > 0:58:24Quite patient with me.

0:58:24 > 0:58:26THEY TALK OVER EACH OTHER

0:58:26 > 0:58:30I'm going to be the most patient and,

0:58:30 > 0:58:31you know...

0:58:33 > 0:58:35Good luck, all.

0:58:35 > 0:58:37Now, all our celebrities are taking to the floor

0:58:37 > 0:58:40a little later on for their first ever group dance.

0:58:40 > 0:58:42My advice - don't move.

0:58:42 > 0:58:45Up next, a musical treat - singing Get Ready...

0:58:45 > 0:58:48- And we are ready, aren't we, Tim? - Roughly.

1:02:18 > 1:02:20Oh, yes!

1:02:20 > 1:02:21That was brilliant.

1:02:21 > 1:02:24A huge thank you to Imelda May, Smokey Robinson

1:02:24 > 1:02:27and our amazing professional dancers.

1:02:27 > 1:02:30Now, let's get ready to meet our final four leading ladies.

1:02:30 > 1:02:32It's Alison Hammond, Judy Murray,

1:02:32 > 1:02:34Sunetra Sarker and Frankie Bridge.

1:02:34 > 1:02:36CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

1:02:39 > 1:02:42Showbiz reporter Alison Hammond surrounds herself with stars

1:02:42 > 1:02:45and glitter on a daily basis.

1:02:45 > 1:02:48So, my job on This Morning is to interview loads of celebrities.

1:02:48 > 1:02:51And I just love it.

1:02:51 > 1:02:53We haven't even started

1:02:53 > 1:02:55and I'm already loving being in the Strictly bubble.

1:02:55 > 1:02:58I think Lisa Riley was an absolute inspiration to bigger women.

1:02:58 > 1:03:01She went out there, she was good, she could move.

1:03:01 > 1:03:03I just thought, you know what? I COULD do that.

1:03:03 > 1:03:05I am going to bust some shapes on that dance floor!

1:03:07 > 1:03:11You can feel it already, can't you? You know it!

1:03:11 > 1:03:15I'm really looking forward to the glitter. I just love glitter!

1:03:15 > 1:03:16As much glitter as possible.

1:03:16 > 1:03:19I want glitter all over my clothes, I want glitter all over my face!

1:03:19 > 1:03:21Ha-ha-ha! I do!

1:03:21 > 1:03:23I just want to be glitteratied!

1:03:26 > 1:03:30As proud Mum to Wimbledon champions Andy and Jamie,

1:03:30 > 1:03:33tennis coach Judy Murray is swapping the tennis ball

1:03:33 > 1:03:34for the glitter ball.

1:03:34 > 1:03:36I've been coaching tennis for 25 years.

1:03:36 > 1:03:39Watching the boys competing, it's a mixture of feeling sick

1:03:39 > 1:03:42and having a heart attack all at the same time.

1:03:42 > 1:03:45When I told them that I was going to do a Strictly, Jamie said,

1:03:45 > 1:03:48"Mum you can't dance. I've never seen you dance."

1:03:48 > 1:03:50Andy said, "You're going to be terrible."

1:03:50 > 1:03:51That's boys for you.

1:03:51 > 1:03:55I actually think they're going to be mortified!

1:03:56 > 1:03:59There are still a lot of people out there who just see me as that

1:03:59 > 1:04:04over-competitive, bossy mother pumping my fist or bearing my teeth.

1:04:04 > 1:04:07Strictly is a huge opportunity to show people the softer,

1:04:07 > 1:04:10maybe more feminine, fun side of me.

1:04:10 > 1:04:13That's going to be a great big challenge.

1:04:13 > 1:04:15And I like a challenge.

1:04:19 > 1:04:21Sunetra Sarker has played a doctor on Casualty

1:04:21 > 1:04:23for the last seven years,

1:04:23 > 1:04:27so has she picked up any tips to help in a Strictly emergency?

1:04:27 > 1:04:29I'd be happy to help if I can.

1:04:29 > 1:04:32I can check your pulse, I can get you into the recovery position,

1:04:32 > 1:04:35but if you break your ankle, you're on your own.

1:04:35 > 1:04:37I always felt that I got my lucky break

1:04:37 > 1:04:39when I was spotted by a casting director from Brookside.

1:04:39 > 1:04:41I would never have believed that

1:04:41 > 1:04:43I'd have ended up here, not on the Strictly dance floor.

1:04:43 > 1:04:46I can feel my heart beating every time I think about it.

1:04:46 > 1:04:48So, my mum's an Indian dancer.

1:04:48 > 1:04:51Between the ages of about six to 12,

1:04:51 > 1:04:55Mum would rope me into every dance production she ever did.

1:04:55 > 1:04:58As soon as I had the opportunity to say no, I did.

1:04:58 > 1:05:01I suppose I regret it a little bit now because I'd love to dance.

1:05:01 > 1:05:03When I told Noah, my nine-year-old, about Strictly,

1:05:03 > 1:05:06he was immediately, "Yes, you have to do it, you have to do it."

1:05:06 > 1:05:09So I ended up going, "Well, if you're sure!"

1:05:09 > 1:05:11So, Noah, this is for you.

1:05:12 > 1:05:16Chart-topper Frankie Bridge isn't just busy on Saturdays,

1:05:16 > 1:05:17she's busy every day.

1:05:17 > 1:05:22So, this year I've had a baby, I got married, I'm doing Strictly

1:05:22 > 1:05:24and then I'm going on tour with The Saturdays.

1:05:24 > 1:05:27I don't like to do things by halves.

1:05:27 > 1:05:28When I was about 12,

1:05:28 > 1:05:31I actually was in a pop group called S Club Juniors.

1:05:31 > 1:05:34For other people, you can hide all your bad pictures of yourself

1:05:34 > 1:05:37when you're a kid, whereas mine's all on the internet for everyone to see!

1:05:38 > 1:05:41Strictly dancing is completely different to anything

1:05:41 > 1:05:42I do in The Saturdays.

1:05:42 > 1:05:44It's going to be really difficult

1:05:44 > 1:05:46having to think about being upright and are my fingers out right.

1:05:46 > 1:05:49So, Len, I want you on my side.

1:05:49 > 1:05:50I'm semi-competitive.

1:05:50 > 1:05:52I'd like to do well.

1:05:52 > 1:05:55I'm not about to get the elbows out or start tripping people up.

1:05:55 > 1:05:57I'm so excited to be here.

1:05:57 > 1:06:00It's something I've always wanted to do, so bring on the glitter.

1:06:00 > 1:06:03CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

1:06:04 > 1:06:09So, we're left with four girls and four boys, but who will get who?

1:06:09 > 1:06:13- Please welcome This Morning reporter Alison Hammond!- Hello!

1:06:13 > 1:06:15CHEERING

1:06:15 > 1:06:17- Hello, love!- I'm so excited!

1:06:17 > 1:06:18I was going to say,

1:06:18 > 1:06:23- you are probably the most excited person in this entire studio!- I am.

1:06:23 > 1:06:26- I'm just...I can't wait. I just want to know who it is now.- Let's do it.

1:06:26 > 1:06:31- Do it!- We're ready. OK, Alison... - Yes?- You will be waltzing off with...

1:06:38 > 1:06:41- Can you bear it any more?- No. - Shall I tell you?- Who is it?

1:06:41 > 1:06:44- It's Aljaz! - ALISON SCREAMS

1:06:47 > 1:06:49Ali!

1:06:49 > 1:06:53- It's Ali and Ali! - It had to be.- Oh!

1:06:53 > 1:06:56- Are you a happy lady? - I'm so excited!- And a happy chap?

1:06:56 > 1:06:59- Let us get started... - I'm going to lift you up!

1:06:59 > 1:07:03She's got him! It's a beautiful pairing. Off you two go.

1:07:03 > 1:07:06Go and get to know each other. Alison and Aljaz.

1:07:06 > 1:07:07Ali and Ali!

1:07:07 > 1:07:11- Ya-ay!- Love it!- Waa!- Woo-hoo!

1:07:11 > 1:07:15Please welcome tennis coach Judy Murray!

1:07:15 > 1:07:18CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

1:07:18 > 1:07:23Judy, just set the scene for me. At home, you've got a mantelpiece.

1:07:23 > 1:07:27You've got all your boys' trophies, the big Wimbledon ones there.

1:07:27 > 1:07:31If you won the Strictly Glitterball, would you get home and just

1:07:31 > 1:07:35chuck 'em? Literally just put them in a skip, give them away...

1:07:35 > 1:07:37Is that what would happen?

1:07:37 > 1:07:40Yeah, well, I mean, I'm not saying it's easy to win Wimbledon

1:07:40 > 1:07:43but the competition here is going to be absolutely fierce,

1:07:43 > 1:07:45so I would wipe everything for that Glitterball.

1:07:45 > 1:07:47Is the right answer!

1:07:47 > 1:07:49CHEERING

1:07:49 > 1:07:51It's time to put you out of your misery. Here we go.

1:07:51 > 1:07:55Judy, you will be playing doubles with...

1:07:55 > 1:07:57AUDIENCE GROANS

1:07:57 > 1:08:01CLAUDIA LAUGHS, AUDIENCE LAUGHS

1:08:03 > 1:08:05It is the magnificent...

1:08:05 > 1:08:07Anton!

1:08:07 > 1:08:09ANTON CHEERS LOUDLY

1:08:20 > 1:08:23- Are you...?- That's quite a forehand you've got there!

1:08:23 > 1:08:25- Stop it! - I like it! I like it!

1:08:25 > 1:08:29- Er, Judy, are you so happy?- Yeah, I'm absolutely delighted.

1:08:29 > 1:08:31She's been giving me the eye all day!

1:08:31 > 1:08:35I thought she had a twitch at first but it was just keen! I like keen!

1:08:35 > 1:08:39You two are going to be absolutely fantastic!

1:08:39 > 1:08:43Let's hear it for the very wonderful Judy and Anton! Off you go.

1:08:43 > 1:08:47CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

1:08:52 > 1:08:55Right, next up, it's Casualty actress Sunetra Sarker.

1:08:55 > 1:08:57- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Come on, you lovely lady.

1:08:57 > 1:08:59Come on over, gorgeous.

1:08:59 > 1:09:02Now, you play a doctor on Casualty.

1:09:02 > 1:09:04- You want to feel my pulse right now! - Is it racing?

1:09:04 > 1:09:07- It's all over the place. I'm tachycardic!- Oh, are you?- Definitely!

1:09:07 > 1:09:09And would you know if you had two left feet?

1:09:09 > 1:09:13Oh, no, I definitely know I have got two left feet at the moment. Sorry.

1:09:13 > 1:09:14- Uh-oh. (We can change that.)- Yes.

1:09:14 > 1:09:17So, will it be Kevin or will it be Brendan?

1:09:17 > 1:09:19Let's find out, shall we?

1:09:19 > 1:09:22Sunetra, your doctor of dance is...

1:09:26 > 1:09:30- It's pretty much win-win either way, isn't it, really?- Yeah, it is.

1:09:30 > 1:09:31And it's Brendan!

1:09:31 > 1:09:33Come on!

1:09:34 > 1:09:36There we go!

1:09:42 > 1:09:44"Thank you!" They're both happy, very happy couple.

1:09:44 > 1:09:47We've done a bit of dancing together. The chemistry's there.

1:09:47 > 1:09:51- Is it? I can see the chemistry's there.- My favourite patient already!

1:09:51 > 1:09:53Oh, rea...? Just what the doctor ordered!

1:09:53 > 1:09:55- Off you go, then, you two. - Thank you.

1:09:55 > 1:09:58A happy couple. Sunetra and Brendan!

1:09:58 > 1:10:01CHEERING

1:10:04 > 1:10:08CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

1:10:08 > 1:10:12- Frankie!- I wonder who I've got(?) - I wonder who you've got(?)

1:11:03 > 1:11:07Len, who do you reckon will have you pickling your walnuts this year?

1:11:07 > 1:11:11Let me say this. I'm always a champion of the older gentleman,

1:11:11 > 1:11:13and Tim and Natalie.

1:11:13 > 1:11:18I just hope he's not going, going, gone for a long time!

1:11:18 > 1:11:20- APPLAUSE - Me too.- Very nice.

1:11:20 > 1:11:22Er, Bruno,

1:11:22 > 1:11:25our favourite bit, obviously, is when you fall off the chair.

1:11:25 > 1:11:26Which couple is going to have you

1:11:26 > 1:11:28just literally falling off your chair?

1:11:28 > 1:11:31Well, one couple has already floored me,

1:11:59 > 1:12:02Craig, they are about to perform for the first time.

1:12:26 > 1:12:30Yeah, this is it. Their very first dance on this floor.

1:12:30 > 1:12:33Now, remember, when this dance was rehearsed, our couples had no idea

1:12:33 > 1:12:36whatsoever who they were going to be partnered up with.
