Whilst most attention is on the celebrities who'll be lining up for this year's Strictly Come Dancing, there's been a little fumble on the professional side. In June, the BBC announced that one of the new female dancers would be Emma Slater, born in Tamworth, but currently based in Los Angeles.
She would have been the first British-born female pro in the history of the series. But on Thursday, she was missing from the names of the distaff side. We already knew about the arrival of Iveta Lukosiute (Lithunia) and Janette Manrara (USA). But now, instead of Emma, we get Anya Garnis (Russian-born, but currently based in LA), former dance partner of Pasha Kovalev.
Perhaps there's some smaller males in the 2013 celeb line-up - Emma claims 5'5", Anya is 5'4".
