Kara and Artem's rumba and American smooth, and their relationship (does that sound really creepy?)
Harry Judd.
Jill's jive.
Flavia Cacace full stop.

And last but definitely not least, Brendan's strops, I miss the old Brendan so much!

Kara and Artem's Tango
Ali and Brian's Viennese Waltz
Chris and Ola's Charleston
Jill and Darren's Jive
Scott and Natalie's Jive
Michael and Natalie's American Smooth

I'm sure there are plenty more but those are the first ones which spring to mind as being favorites of mine.

I prefer the pink! Not sure why...maybe cos her hair is more sort of sensual? Haha

I'm with you, pink. The whole look is just softer and more romantic for me.

me too pink and it had an extra edge of sensuality and that they were experiencing it rather than just dancing it..

I prefer the pink dress one with her hair down and it was relaxed and pure poetry . Loved the white but there was a tension in it due to the final maybe .

I never felt the chemistry between Kara & Artem. He treated her like crap in rehearsals from what I saw. But whatever.

My highlights have been

Jill & Darren's jive.
Ricky & Natalie's quickstep
Tom & Camilla's show dance

Before I add my faves, i would agree with the Kara and Artem rumba, but for slightly different reasons.
It stood out for me because of her dress. Instead of the usual "swimsuit with a tablecloth on top" outfit, her dress nearly totally covered her up, until she started dancing. Then it draped and teased but never revealed.
The white version was not as good.

Other stand out moments are usually because of the unexpected...

Michael and Natalie's Wembley AS- WHERE did that come from?
Chelsee and Pasha's airline quickstep. Her uniform was so cute and the routine was amazing
Austin and Erin's paso. Ole!

I'll never forget Camilla's total desperation to win.

Matt and Alesha's foxtrot.
Even although Matt Cutler forgot some of the routine no one noticed as Alesha managed to follow him. It was only when they confessed on ITT that people realised. At the time it gave me goose bumps. It was beautiful.

Matt and Alesha's rumba.

I think they performed this in week 1 so it has probably been forgotten by most people but Alesha danced it amazingly well and showed that even at the beginning of the competition the chemistry they had and this was going to be a special partnership.

I think I probably fall in line with most of the big favourites, so will just add the one that I always add on these threads...the pro waltz by Vincent and Flavia from 2007. It was against the backdrop of them splitting up and it made it really poignant. Only waltz I've ever really enjoyed.

Prior to this year, I'd have to go for the American Smooth performed by Holly and Artem to Swan Lake, as it was so original...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze_uqFlT4I8

This year I'd vote for Sophie and Brendan's original Charleston - I agree with Claudia, it was Brendan's best ever dance.

The funniest thing ever though was Dave and Karen's Cha Cha. I've started giggling again!

Austin and Erin Paso Doble
Ali and Brian American Smooth
Kimberley and Pasha American Smooth
And I loved Deborah and Robins quickstep this year... The love of dance just shone through

If we're going for actual "wow" moments rather than favourite dances/performances then it has to be Mark and Karen's AT imo. It was an incredible transformation from a somewhat shy and reserved former cricketer into a polished performance dancer.

ALL Aleshas ballroom, Mark and Karens AT, Rachel and Vincents AT Denise and James Charleston, this series Sophie and Brendans Charleston ( I really am not into the Charleston but enjoyed these)

Everything about Mark Ramprakash - salsa, AT, but just generally. The difference between the rather quiet person he was the rest of the time and him dancing - that summed up the magic of Strictly for me. I think he's the best celeb ever.

Also
Aled and Lilia doing the cha cha - first time I watched the show and I had no intention of liking it till this dance.
Austen and Erin - their first ever dance - I couldn't believe it.
Chelsee and Pasha - generally but particularly the QS and the rumba. Absolutely loved her.
Louis and Flavia - Halloween tango and fusion.

Also Flavia and Vincent's first AT showcase dance, and Anton and Erin dancing to the opera singer.

It still gives me goosebumps...

Oh yes I've just rewatched

So beautiful and sad bearing in mind what had happened in their personal life

Totally agree. I also loved their Jive and Charleston. This was one of my favourite ever pairings, I loved their friendship.

And both of these too I also loved Kelly Brook and Brendan's American Smooth, although I think they lost points for having too many lifts...

For all the wrong reasons: Peter Shilton's charleston with Erin. Can't find any clips anywhere but Bruno accurately described him as looking like "a penguin stuck in mud".

Everything Kara and Artem danced truly wonderful.

Been on You Tube for the past 1 hour watching all their dances again. The Pink Rhumba was just beautiful.
