Corby Does Strictly

With only 8 weeks to go until the glitterball sparkles at our "Strictly Come Dancing" charity event, our ten local "Celebrity Dancers" are well into their training for the big nights competition.

The following celebrity dancers are all partnered with professional dancers from MASH Dance Studios of Kettering who will also be putting on show dances throughout the evening. All of our contestants and MASH have donated their time for free, and we certainly couldn't put this wonderful event on without them.

Who will you be supporting?

  • Chris Mallender for Corby Borough Council
  • Steve Tysoe for Land Securities
  • Jay Arnold for iForce
  • Ian Gallagher for Corby Evening Telegraph
  • Neil Jarman for Oxford University Press
  • Barbara Algeo for RS Components
  • Carrie Murphy for Wilson Browne Solicitors
  • Tracey Willey for Corby Police
  • Gillian Green for Rockingham Forest Hotel (Best Western)
  • Irene Porter for Lakelands Hospice

All our couples will face the public vote for their Waltz and Cha Cha, but only six couples will get through to the final round where they will get to show off their quick step to the audience. It's going to be a very interesting and fun night, definitely one that Corby has never experienced before!

We're Going Interactive!

We are also working on making this event interactive for those that can't attend, as we will be twittering throughout so everyone will be able to play their part in this FAB-U-LOUS fundraising event. ;-) We will be tweeting photos, video clips, live commentary, voting results, judges scores and comments as they happen.
