The ones I watch on YouTube the most are:


Rachel's & Vincent's rumba

Austin's & Erin's jive

Cherie's & James's rumba

Alesha's & Matthew's cha cha cha

Austin's & Erin's tango

Tom's & Camilla's show dance

Darren's & Katya's show dance

Anything Latin by Mark & Karen (OMG - has flashbacks to Ramps's hip action!)

Chris's & Ola's charleston (quite fond of their rumba too, even though it was their first dance and a bit rough)

Harry's & Aliona's cha cha cha (ditto above)


Which old favourites do you turn to when the quality of the show is a bit disappointing (like tonight's?)

Vincent's dances with Louisa and Rachel - longing for the time when he gets someone like those two again to produce some of that great choreography once more.

Alesha´s and Matthew´s Jive

Rachel´s and Vincent´s Argentine Tango

Kara and Artem's American Smooth

Matt and Aliona's Charleston loved it!

So far today I have watched:

Scott and Natalie: Jive
Matt and Aliona: Samba
Kara and Artem: Argentine tango
Alesha and Matthew: Jive
Chris and Ola: Charleston

For me the best dance of all time on Strictly was Matt Baker & Aliona's Samba.

In fact tonights Samba and Salsa contestants should have studied Matt's dances, they could possibly have learned something from the way he moves. Instead, they were all very weak apart from Chelsee & Pasha who danced the Samba the way it should be danced.

Karen & Ramps - Argentine Tango
Matt di Angelo and Flavia - Salsa
Chris and Ola - Charleston
Aliona and Matt B - Samba
Tom and Camilla - finale showdance
Jill and Darren - Jive
Zoe and Ian - Tango
Scott and Natalie - Jive

Scott and Natalie: Jive, Quickstep and Tango

Ricky and Natalie: Quickstep, Cha Cha Cha, SF Waltz, AT
(Yes, I'm a big fan of Natalie!)

Jill and Darren: Jive, Cha Cha Cha

Tom and Camilla: Foxtrot, Salsa, Showdance

Cherie and James: Rumba

(There are more, but those are the most re-watched.)

was awesome! another fav of mine. i think matt and aliona were great together. they seemd to be a real connection between them, and they always appeared to genuinely get on. all seems a bit forced this year

Last sunday I sat down and watched all of Kara and Artem's dances in order...

I don't go back and watch very often but I have watched

Austin and Erin's paso

Austin and Erin's jive

Artem and Kara's charleston which I think is the most undervalued charleston ever. That dance should have had 10s, it was perfect and was made even better by the total lack of gurning.

anything by Chris and Ola <3

Vincent and rachels Rumba and Argentine Tango, both were brilliant, also all of Aleshas ballroom, absolutely mesmerizing!!!! she looked like a Disney princess, actually brought tears to my sad eyes!!

Kara and Artem's VW and AS

Alesha Vienese Watlz & quickstep
Tom Chambers foxtrot - sad I know
Ricky Whittle - AT, semi final waltz & quickstep
Kara - American Smooth & Rumba

Haven't checked many earlier series dances - need to do that now

All of Tom C's and all of Team Kartem's dances.

Loved them all.

Funny how no one is saying any of Widdy's dances...........or Russell's for that!

Rachel and Vncent's dances, plus quite a few of the pro dances from previous years.

Don't think I'll be watching back any of this year's efforts, except for one or two of the pro dances

Rachel and Vincent's rumba
Karen and Ramp's salsa and AT
Kara and Artem's VW and AS
James and Artem's rumba
Chelsee and Pasha's quickstep

(but the one I watch most is Julianne and Apolo's cha cha - blue dress one - from DWTS)

My favourite routine of all time was Ali Bastian and Brian Fortuna's American Smooth in the semi-final. Proof they were robbed of a place in the final that year.

I also love Tom and Camilla's Quickstep and their Showdance, and Jill Halfpenny's Jive. Oh, and Chris Hollins' Charleston.

Anything by Jill and Darren, Vincent and Rachel along with Vincent and Louisa and Scott/Natalie Jive

Anything at all with Matt Cutler in it and if I want to get myself out of the depths of depression - Lisa and Brendan (Bacofoil). Oh yeah!!!

Kara & Artem's AS from Blackpool
Kara & Artem's Rumba
Karen & Mark's AT
Alesha & Matthew's Quickstep
Jill & Darren's Jive

Apart from Alesha and Matthew's individual and group dances, I struggle to remember a single dance from previous series I've rewatched (not counting links to dances posted on threads to illustrate a point, or clips of dances shown on ITT)

From this series, I think Chelsee and Pasha's QS will be one I'll watch again. But I rarely rewatch dances, in all honesty.

Lots of Alesha and Matthew's routines, but normally after following a link for someone else. I wouldn't actively seek them out.
