Who is in Strictly 2022?

It was also recently reported that Liverpool goalie legend Bruce Grobbelaar is in talks for the show.

A source told The Sun: “Bosses are determined to get Grobbelaar to sign on the dotted line. Even getting him to agree to a meeting was a mission but so far he’s dragging his heels.

“He’s made it clear the only way he will sign up is if they agree a big-money package. Producers are willing to splash out to get him but have a limit as to how much they can spend.”

Meanwhile Adam Thomas appeared to confirm he had signed up for the show.

“I’m not the best dancer in the world, I wish.

“Though once I’ve had a drink, I do believe I’m the best dancer in the world. Sober it is a completely different story.”

Adam continued: “I’ve have never won anything in my life so it would be nice but I’m not necessarily competitive. I try to do my best in anything I sign up to, but it’s about the journey and experience you go through.”
