Nessie's list is about right. How about celeb runners that would be good to see in it? Tony Audenshaw would be a pick I'd want to see (Emmerdale, Marathon Talk, "proper runner", musical so no issues with rhythm). Sophie Rayworth? Lots of scope for VTs of them doing a little dance at the end of a parkrun or a race etc.

They'll probably have someone from radio as well - I'd love it to be Ken Bruce...... It seems to me that despite having a CBBC, YouTuber and Radio 1 presenter this year the audience they hope to reach with them is either not watching or not voting given the number of times those individuals ended up in the dance off.
