Over The Seven Series: Favourite Dances?
I made this thread last year and it was quite fun to see everybody's favourites so I thought I'd bring it back! Even if you don't like any of the dances pick the most bearable one!
Waltz: Alesha Dixon Tango: Rachel Stevens Foxtrot: Rachel Stevens Quickstep: Alesha Dixon Viennese Waltz: Alesha Dixon/Ali Bastian American Smooth: Rachel Stevens/Kelly Brook Jive: Louisa Lytton Salsa: Mark Ramprakash Samba: Alesha Dixon Rumba: Rachel Stevens Paso Doble: Louisa Lytton/Laila Rouass Cha Cha Cha: Alesha Dixon/Lisa Snowdon Rock N Roll: Ricky Whittle Charleston: Laila Rouass Argentine Tango: Rachel Stevens Show Dance: Alesha Dixon |

I only think there is one dance that I would class as my favourite. I think it is the best dance we've ever seen on Strictly. Certainly nothing this year has come close!
I'm talking about Zoe Ball's tango. It was the combination of music, choreography, performance and everything, and it still gives me goosebumps now. If anyone wants to reupload it to Youtube, they would have my eternal thanks. I don't really have any favourites over the other dances, as there have been several I like about the same of them all. The Charleston and Rock 'n' Roll are slightly different as they've only been danced in one episode - therefore, Ali Bastian for the charleston, and Ricky Whittle for the RnR. Other than that, I really couldn't say.

Rachel only just edged Zoe's Tango in my opinion but I can see how alot of people found Zoe's better. Rachel's was more subtle, while Zoe's was "grand opera on the dance floor" I'm gonna have to go and rewatch Zoe's now, it was fabulous

Zoe and Ian's tango - Best ever dance on the whole show.
Matt and Lilia's waltz - Simply beautiful. He is seriously overlooked. Matt and Lilia's quickstep - Can't hear that song without smiling. ![]() Jill and Darren's jive - Nuff said. Mark and Karen's salsa - Brilliant. Tom and Camilla's showdance - Made a wonderful change to the weightlifting. |

Waltz:
Ricky and Natalie Tango: Rachel and Vincent Quickstep: Denise and Ian V Waltz: Ray and Camilla A Smooth: Colin and Erin Jive: Louisa and Vincent Salsa: Mark and Karen Rumba: Colin and Erin Paso Doble: Ricky and Natalie Argentine Tango: Mark and Karen Rock n Roll: Ricky and Natalie (The DO version NOT the version where they were told by the "advisers" at the last minute to act cool, and if they had continued with that approach in the DO it would have seen them go out of the competition to a more "enthusiastic" competitor). ![]() Charleston: Ali and Brian Showdance: Tom and Camilla Foxtrot: I really can't think of any that stand out for me. Samba See above. ![]() CCC See above

I haven't seen all of the series, but off the top of my head:
Waltz- Alesha and Matthew/Gethin and Camilla Tango- Rachel and Vincent (but I haven't seen Zoe and Ian's!) Foxtrot- Tom and Camilla Quickstep- Tom and Camilla Viennese Waltz- Rachel and Vincent AS- Gethin and Camilla Jive- Jill and Darren Salsa: Mark and Karen Samba: I dislike all of the sambas Rumba: Cherie and James Paso Doble: Austin and Erin/Laila and Anton Cha Cha Cha: Not too keen on any CCC, but I guess Alesha's sticks in my head. Rock N Roll: Ricky Whittle Charleston: Chris and Ola Argentine Tango: Mark and Karen Show Dance: Tom and Camilla |

Waltz: Matt and Lilia.
Tango: Zoe and Ian. Foxtrot: Zoe and Ian I think. Quickstep: Matt and Lilia Viennese Waltz: Jade and Ian American Smooth: Matt and Lilia Jive: Jill and Darren Salsa: Can't think.....probably Matt and Flavia Samba: Jill and Darren Rumba: Chris and Ola Paso Doble: Jill and Darren maybe. Cha Cha Cha: Can't think of any that stand out. Rock N Roll: Ricky and Natalie but only because it was less bad than Natalie and Vincent's, not because I actually enjoyed it ![]() Charleston: Chris and Ola. Argentine Tango: Rachel and Vincent Show Dance: Darren and Lilia. I liked Tom and Camilla's too. |

My favourite Foxtrot would be way back in Series one
Natasha and Brendan's to The Girl From Ipinema the first time a dance on Strictly gave me goosebumps, this for me was the dance that made Strictly. and I too loved their samba to Love Is In The Air, that and Zoe's were the only 2 Strictly Sambas that blew my socks off. |
