I’m that they have dumped Hamish Gaman, IMO he was one of the best pros they had.

I’ll probably still watch to see Mark Hanretty.

ETA: I liked Karina and Joe last year too

Last year was the first year that i didn't make it through the series and sadly I think i am finally done with the show.

I have heard of only two of those people (the celebrities, I mean).

May have to find some YouTube clips as I'm curious to see how Brendan Cole does, but it's a very long time since I was able to sit through a whole show.

Thanks! I’m dizzy but lovin’ every second of that.

That's a bit nauseating! (ETA: The drone footage, not T&D's skating, of course)

I remember T&D skating to that track as part of a Beatles group number in their 1995 'Farewell' Tour - my first live skating experience.

I watched a few of the pro/celebrity numbers on youtube and Karina Manta's partner is surprisingly good. No idea who he is though...
