Celebrity No. 6: Graeme Swann

Yep, I had to Google Graeme Swann as well. Cricketer. I don't watch cricket.

Graeme said: “It’s true - I’ve signed up for Strictly! I’m hoping to follow in the footsteps of the cricketers who’ve come before me who’ve either won the whole thing or had an absolute ball on the show. Keeping it under wraps from my kids has been nearly impossible; they are huge fans of the show and I can’t wait to see their faces when I tell them. I don’t have any background in dancing but can do the floss so let’s hope this comes in useful!”

Four cricketers precede him. Two won their series. Two came deed centre of theirs. Darren Gough wouldn't win now anyway (and shouldn't have won then either - dratted Muppetgate). I think Graeme will probably go the way of Tuffers and Vaughny. Mid-table.
