Ainsley and Natalie looked so happy to be paired up! So many people said that she looked like she was sucking lemons but honestly she looked delighted! They look great already and Ainsley seemed to be so chuffed! He thanked Natalie and whoever picked her to be his partner he was over the moon. How anyone could say that she looked like she didn't want to have him as a partner I don't know they look wonderful. These are my favourites maybe only because I grew up watching Ainsley EVERY SINGLE DAY and love him to piece and after a rocky start with Natalie (hated her in her first season) she's become my favourite female pro! I think they'll have some magical dances but I also think they'll just be magic together. Same bubbly personalities and I really do think Natalie is just like Erin in that she'll get the best out of her partner no matter what.

Again people said Ola looked really disappointed but I didn't see it that way I mean THAT SCREETCH when she got him! How could anyone say she didn't want him as a partner? Even if its going off of photos later in the night that could purely be down to the fact that apparently Iwan ripped her dress, broke her nail and made her boobs pop out of her dress! Aliona looked terrified in the background. I think this will be a great team though I'm also half expecting them to get on too well. Apparently Iwan is a friend of hers but with his hyperness he needs someone to come down hard on him if he gets too excitable and even though Ola CAN do that if she's friends with him already she might not. Plus we'll all be keeping a eye on her and her leg!!!!

Him grasping onto Tess and then Aliona, I felt so sorry for him he looked like he was about to die from panic. Aliona looked so pleased that she hadn't got Jeremy or Daniel or Ainsley but to be honest I'm not sure she'll be fist pumping for much longer as he's got some big nerves to get past and Aliona is NOT the professional that will help him with that! She's in it to win it and she'll get fed up of him freezing up. I feel bad for Jay, in a way I think the perfect partner would have been someone like Natalie who knows when to be tough and when to be lovely. Jay needs that extra help because he could hardly walk to Tess from the stairs he was so nervous. The worst is that isn't even live! That was just in front of a audience which he's used to. Wait till he has to go live. Aliona is horrible.

He's got that news presenter vibe about him. I hate using the word fake but it comes across as fake. The way they speak and the fact that they have that cheery way of speaking. Its like they are presenting AT us all the time. I go between liking and disliking the whole Clifton family so I'll wait and see with these two. If anything she's the only one so far that didn't look chuffed at who she picked and if I'm honest, baring in mind how much more shit the female celebs go through, the girls always look way more competitive then the boys (pro wise) when being paired up. I'm not hoping for the moon but some of the "lets faff about in a romantic/funny/sexy way and not dance" routines that we get nowadays will hide his weaknesses for a while. At least not to be first out. I also think that cheery way of speaking and acting will help him as I'm about the only person it annoys!

If people are talking about up with Claudia afterwards I think its cruel to hold them to those faces. Like me I think Nattie and Ola just have natural frowns, we can be very cheerful people and when we relax our faces we look miserable. Thing is in a thing like Strictly where you are smiling all the time its hard because its so much more difficult then someone like Karen who looks like she has a natural smiley face to keep up a smile. It starts to hurt as silly as that sounds because naturally your mouth doesn't want to be smiling. You can tell a lot by the INITIAL reactions and not by what they are like when standing around being asked inane questions.

Galeb I don't think is that good looking, don't get the hoohaa over him. No where near as attractive as Tristan or Brendan or even Giovanni! Even Kevin is slightly better looking. I am not sure I'm going to like his dancing, I don't know he gives off a Artem vibe. Oti I love lets keep her forever and ever please? She seemed to have a good sense of humour and looked amazing! Though it surprised me that when she said that she liked to be lifted etc the lifts they had her do were hardly sensational in the pro dance. Giovanni makes me giggle. The same kind of Italian Stallion attitude as Vincent had and he seems quite sweet. Again not sure about him either but I think I might like his personality more then his dancing!

I'll be up all night I think! Helen is lovely I think she's so sweet! Aljaz just always looks chuffed to be on the show so he was always going to be happy whoever he got but I think they'll work well together. Aljaz is quite quiet but kinda in a cute way and with the talk of her dogs and just the look of her Helen will suit that well. Dance wise I can see some heart achingly sweet dances from them. Aljaz always does something different to suit his partners. Seeing Helen loves Darcy maybe we'll see more traditional or more balletic performances? I'm looking forward to them two!

A lot of people think she's over the top or will be a pain in the ass celeb but I thought she just had a good sense of humour and I don't see what is wrong with knowing who you do and don't want to be partnered with. Hell if I was doing Strictly I'd sulk if I got Kevin! Thankfully she got Tristan! He looked happy she screached. I really loved everything Tristan did with Jennifer last year and I really am happy he's back so I can't wait to see what he has in store for Jamelia who, even though I loved Jennifer, is going to probably stick around a little longer!

Something tells me that he really wanted to get Georgia! I know later on in the VT showing them at the group thing people said they already had a team name and all sorts but he just looked completely on cloud 9 when his name was called to dance with her. She seems happy too! Maybe that is where the "romance" angle will come to play this year? I think if he dances like Vincent as much as they've scripted him to sound like Vincent it could be a retelling of Vincent and Louisa which would be right up my alley! I like their personalities (so far) and can see them being a lot of fun and maybe bringing that best mates vibe to the dances, as long as the editing team don't try to douse us in romance that is!

They both looked pleased to get each other, I feel like they might know each other outside of the show the way they both reacted. It kind of was like "yes I know what I'm in for here." I have always loved the way that Brendan has danced and how he choreographs his dances so I can't wait to see what he has in store for Kirsty the only thing I guess with it is that I'm not sure whether or not Kirsty is going to click with me on that level you kind of need to click with the celebs to make you want to vote. We'll see though its early days!
