A round-up of 15 things we learned from this year's Strictly Come Dancing celebrities.

Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly will launch the new series of Strictly Come Dancing on Saturday

We take our hats off to whoever came up with this outstanding reference to Wikileaks in the contestants' WhatsApp group, after the TV presenter accidentally revealed a closely-guarded secret."I inadvertently gave away the start date of Strictly Come Dancing on BBC Breakfast, which was a total error," Walker recalls. "The reason I did that was I went to the post office and there are four lovely ladies in there who I always have a good chat to, and they're Strictly obsessed.

The entrepreneur, who joined Dragons' Den in 2019, says she always has to work extra hard if she wants to impress her own children. "She's been filming solidly since January, she's made three films back to back," he explains. "We had planned a really nice Autumn, we were actually going to have our first holiday in seven years together. And over the space of a five-minute conversation, the entire Autumn was kicked into the long grass, and here I am, but she's thrilled."

"I want people to look and go, 'Oh, I didn't know Rhys could do that.' I'll be in the mirror, practising that face. Maybe I'll start doingWhen it comes to that glitterball trophy, Stephenson will look for it. He will find it. And heThis year's contestants have a wide variety of superstitions and pre-performance rituals, but actress Nina Wadia's is easily our favourite.

"It's partly my age, and it's partly that nearly two years ago I had quite a big-deal health thing," he explains. "I had to have "I always try and see the positive side of stuff and try and laugh at stuff instead of getting upset," the actress continues. "So this is my cup of tea all over, I wanna smile, I wanna dance, and hopefully make some lifelong friends along the way."9. Tom Fletcher considers himself the "king of the dad dance".

The 19-year-old is starting university around the same time she's starting Strictly, but she's more nervous about the dancing "because at least with university I've done a bit of psychology before, whereas with this I'm going in at the deep end".Rugby player Ugo Monye and influencer Tilly Ramsay

These people are celebrities!

Beg box; Black box; Bet box; Scam Box; News from Afghanistan. Turned it off can't watch that garbage any more. This is just a panto now.

Another thing to learn: this is where most of the license fee is spent.

Used to be a good show, now its too over the top. Feels more like its produced by X Factor than BBC.

Don’t celebrities know this programme only signs them up so that the public have something to laugh about, like the obligatory unliftables who don’t last to get to Blackpool.

Viewing figures are now falling. It's looking tired. Whats next? Sparkling jackets and dresses no longer cut it. Gender-neutral is likely to get you kicked off quickly, and further reduce the numbers watching. It's an old programme for old people. Revamping won't save it.
