There's no doubting that 2008 was the year that belonged to Britain's Got Talent winner George Sampson - capped off with his triumphant performance at the Royal Variety Performance. But he won't be resting on his laurels.
His resolution is: "To put as much effort into singing as I have into my dancing. And just to stay strong - that's my resolution every year."
Boxing champ Ricky Hatton (pictured) reckons his is: "To eat more bacon and less lettuce."
Coronation Street's Ryan Thomas, who became a dad this year with his former Corrie girlfriend Tina O'Brien: "I want to have more holidays! I've been to some amazing places but I would love to go and do a bit of a tour round America. I'd love to go on safari but not right now with a little baby."
Their Corrie pal Jennie McAlpine says: "I don't believe in New Year resolutions . I'll try to have more fun - although I don't know how I could possibly have more fun than I am having at the moment!"
A raft of celebs are looking for a healthier 2009. New Order's Peter Hook says he wants "to get fit and squeeze into my favourite clothes again."
Dancing on Ice and Hollyoaks' star Chris Fountain: "Healthy eating - I'm feeling inspired by Jamie Oliver and I'm going to be cooking more for myself next year, instead of eating out. Nothing complicated - just meat and two veg."
John Thomson: "To have some actual body definition. To own for once in my life a pair of rock hard pecs. In fact, I'm going to do it before April."
TV presenter Richard Madeley: "Drink less. I drink far too much wine and I've got to cut down."
Meanwhile Waterloo Road star Denise Welch's is: "To start saying no to more things. I say yes to everything and then find I've got no time to do anything of my own."
Emmerdale stalwart Tony Audenshaw: "I have failed to keep up my last two years' resolutions, so 2009 is going to be the year I dance at every opportunity and help my friends grow vegetables."
The Take That lads have ruled the world in 2008 - now they want to score brownie points on the home front. Gary Barlow says: "I've been coming and going a bit at home and I need to make more effort. I've been leaving my breakfast material all over the sink, I need to buck up. There's points to be got, there's prizes, and I need a Brucie bonus." While Mark Owen adds: "Maybe just to listen a bit more."
But showbiz icon Lorna Luft, star of The Wizard of Oz at The Lowry, has got it sussed we reckon.
She says: "My resolution is to never go to the gym, not to go on a diet and always to be less tolerant. Those are the ones I will keep."
