Josie Gibson left Strictly Come Dancing fans hoping she was on the line-up for the new series, after an announcement was made at the start of Monday's This Morning.
After lots of speculation, a whole host of celebrities have now been unveiled for Strictly 2022. First up were Will Mellor and Kym Marsh, who were both confirmed on BBC Breakfast on Thursday morning and have since being joined on the Strictly line-up by The One Show's RIchie Anderson, Loose Women host Kaye Adams, comic Jayde Adams, Paralympic champion swimmer Ellie Simmonds and KISS FM DJ Tyler West.
AS a spoof Strictly account causes a stir with its own reveals on Twitter, Josie and This Morning co-host Craig Doyle announced at the very start of Monday's show that there'd be some big Strictly contestant news coming up, with another contestant revealing their identity live on the programme.

And the second that announcement was made, viewers were rushing to Twitter saying they hoped the star in question would be Josie.
One posted: "The next #Strictly celeb will be announced on #ThisMorning just after noon so let’s take this hour to manifest Josie Gibson," with a second reacting: "I hope the @bbcstrictly reveal is going to be @Josiestweet. Please say it is going to be Josie. I would love to see Josie on Strictly Come Dancing."
Also wanting the mystery Strictly celeb to be Josie, a third commented: "going to be a strictly reveal on #ThisMorning at 12.15 today hoping its Josie Gibson." While many hoped for A Josie reveal, another This Morning viewer predicted that it would be ex Loose Women anchor Andrea McLean.
It didn't end up being Andrea or Josie as Matt Goss was the star to be confirmed for Strictly.
Whoever the remaining contestants on the Strictly line-up for this year end up being, they will also be hoping to follow in the footsteps of EastEnders actress Rose Ayling-Ellis, who won the covered Glitterball trophy, alongside professional dance partner Giovanni Pernice.
