start of series 19 likely in september, and No blackpool this year either

so we are very very likely back at the normal 15 celebrities, and 13 weeks (which means also return of halloween week)





feel sad for blackpool, but that was probably too risky and too soon for its return



as for ''full audience'' i don't know, they should decide based on safety, and i wouldn't mind reduced audience either for another year

Another factor why there may be no Blackpool this year. Is it's getting an refurbishment in the ballroom they are having to fix the roof and stuff and I'm unaware if this is finished yet I'm thinking not as it'll be a big job to undertake so I have a feeling it may be more to do with that

+ also confirmation of the christmas special being back too



i think first celeb reveal next week, maybe they will use the one show for the first reveals again, given Breakfast is only a lot about olympics and a bit of brief news highlights, think they could do a reveal or two after olympics
