dani and vincent showdance

I thought they both looked the part and had high expectations. The choreography was incredibly similar if not completely like the freestyle dance that Vincent danced with Louisa for the Eurovision dance contest. He incorporated all the lifts and they were so good but Louisa did dance it much better and coped with the transitions. Funny to see her in the audience!
The show dances weren't all that but with the little time they've had to rehearse and cram it all I thought they were decent.

It was my favourite of the night (so far), to be honest.

It wasn't the cleanest routine, but I personally loved it I'll be sad if they come if 4th but they have done terrific to get this far.

I enjoyed the routine and think Dani has been very good throughout, but she didn't get into and out of the lifts very smoothly which let them down. They'd never done any lifts so I think she needed more practice.

She has always been a competent dancer but she never learnt to stretch those legs, lift that overlarge head or be graceful.

She did well but she's was never my front runner. At least she got to the final and not the ghastly Lisa. That in itself is a blessing.

Louis or Kimberley to win.

Sorry to see her go.

I really wanted her to do well, but that showdance was a mess. The lifts were ungainly, the music was far too fast for the Paso section and they ended up out of time for much of the middle part of the dance. She just looked terrified and on edge all the time, which makes me think if there'd been a bit less content, there could have been much better performance. I think the showdance was the reason she finished 4th.

I liked the concept of it but it was sloppy around the lifts which is a shame.

I wanted to love it, but I didn't.

I don't think Dani is a Paso/Rhumba kinda girl. Both dances demand a certain maturity and lots of beautifully extended lines - areas Dani has improved in - but which have never been her strong point.

The performance wasn't graceful enough and I think the song was ultimately too big for Dani.

It was a valiant effort, and I voted for them regardless, but in retrospect, a Showdance that incorporated a mixture of Quickstep, Charleston and Jive might have been better because it would have played to her strengths.

It could have been good but for the first time, I thought she looked awkward and dumpy - sorry to her fans and the outfit didn't help either.

Ah never mind. Maybe it just isn't meant to be for Vincent!

Thanks though CC, you're very sweet x

It was a very challenging showdance. I think all their showdances are good, or at least decent. I actually can't remember last year's showdances. This year's has been good all round!

If they had pulled it off it would have been amazing.

Sadly, they(well, Danni)) didn't quite pull it off.

Good effort though and better than anyone outside the final could have done.
