Can I put in a mention of Louisa and Vincent's jive and paso - fantastic dances that seem to have been overlooked - wasn't a a great fan of Emma Bunton but she did do a great tango to Maneater - the Nelly Furtado version.

I have so so many favourite dances and kevin and susanna's paso doble actually made me want to start doing latin and ballroom dancing so will always have a special place in my heart... but I keep coming back to dani and vincent's charleston/quickstep fusion routine to happy feet. darling little routine - i get so much joy watching it. there's a couple of really nice transitions into hold that tickle me as well and the whole thing looks so slick and polished.

I have two:
Jill Halfpenny and Darren Bennett's jive in series two. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fd3OBFMiBHc And Mark Ramprakash and Karen Hardy's salsa, which got off to a false start when his mic got caught up in her dress in series four. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdMMuH6wmPQ With both these dances, the total joy and enthusiasm of the celebrities and the happy (purely platonic) relationship they shared with their professional dance partner came through so much. There was plenty of dance content and no props. Nothing I have even seen in subsequent series, however talented the celebrities, has surpassed these performances, which remain my absolute favourites and a wonderful memory. ![]() |

Loads for me...some old favourites which always get a mention on these threads, and a couple which tend to get overlooked:
Jill & Darren's jive Jill & Darren's showdance Mark R & Karen's AT Tom & Camilla's showdance Alesha & Matt's cha cha Alesha & Matt's quickstep Tom & Camilla's quickstep Kara & Artem's Charleston - one of the most criminally underscored & overlooked dances in Strictly history Patsy & Anton's tango Louisa & Vincent's jive Kelly & Brendan's American Smooth - illegal lift (which wouldn't be illegal these days) notwithstanding, it's the best AS I've ever seen on the show IMO Kelly & Brendan's jive Kelly & Brendan's VW Lisa & Brendan's VW Chris & Ola's Charleston Ali & Brian's Charleston Sophie & Brendan's Charleston Kimberley & Pasha's VW Kimberley & Pasha's American Smooth Kimberley & Pasha's fusion (I'm possibly the only person who enjoyed Fusion Week) Kimberley's showdance (I was a big Team Kasha fan, can you tell? )Matt & Aliona's tango-ey foxtrot And some Pro numbers: The Rebel Yell jive The black/white Rolling in the Deep tango Katya & Pasha's jive/quickstep to Caro Emerald Here endeth the DeltaBlues YouTube playlist - although annoyingly I can't do links as I'm posting from a steam powered iPad.

For me Scott Maslen & Natalie's Jive has to be up there. It's certainly the best Jive a male celebrity has done:

The one that always sticks out in my mind is jill's jive. The final with Abby and Alijaz, Mark Rampakash and Karen Hardy.. Also Camilla and Tom's showdance. So many to choose from impossible to choose just one. Easier to choose the funniest dance and that will always be John Sargeants. I love watching that now.
Watching some of the links on here and how I miss Arlene as a judge. She was my favourite female judge we've had. |
