Ricky G's American smooth

I loved this dance. It was my favorite of the night. I don't usually like ballroom dances but this one moved me!

It wasn't technically perfect & Ricky's shoulders were very hunched, but there was a sweetness about it that made me smile.

I loved the ending, Erin did a brilliant job in choreographing a routine that had enough character without being over the top.

i completely agree, i even enjoyed it more than Ali & Brian's controversial i know! I loved the chim chiminee music, Erin's dress was a gorgeous orange juice colour and the little quickstep sequence they put in was lovely, all the other AS last night were too slow for me i prefer the quicker paced showy ones

I loved it. His neck was hidden a lot of the time,but overall he really does have a good balance of entertainment and technicality. Simply love watching him.

I nearly died laughing at the look on Tess's face when he said 'When do we get to meet Ant and Dec?'

It was alright, just wish he'd sort out those blummin shoulders!!

The quickstep change at the end was a very inspired choice.

I loved the dance too; no, not as perfectly executed as Ali and Brian's (my favourite couple) but much more memorable. It was a great routine, and Ricky did Erin proud; he has stamina, speed and strength, a good memory for the steps, and a lot of charm and character - he's so much better than I ever thought he would be, I really like him.

I was dreading it. The music! NO!

But it really worked. It worked a treat.

I must admit, when I heard the music I was dreading this dance, but all credit to the singer and the tempo of the song - they managed to add that 'Hollywood' sparkle to the music and that helped the performance.

It could have been cheesey but ended up being classy. Loved Erin's dress too.

Cross posted - brilliant minds and all that.

I really liked it - I think it shows what a good routine Erin did that even though there was a lot that was technically wrong - his shoulders and Erin looked as if she was flinging herself into the lifts rather than he was sweeping her up - it was still so entertaining. It had the feeling for me of watching dancers in a musical. Lovely.

Ali and Brian's was very good and she looked gorgeous. However I saw it after I knew it had got a 10 and I had too high expectations - I kept seeing the hesitations, etc instead of just enjoying it. I'm sure it would have been different if I'd be watching the show live.
