Those were the days when men were men and the women wore proper dresses. There were no props and the dances were recognisable.

No I agree with you - I don't usually like the rhumba but with Rachel's it had an annus mirablis in series six.

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 really liked their Vienesse waltz to "Thtat's amore" as well - my husband says most VW's bore him and that one didn't

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. ”

Jill's Jive.....Sophie's Charleston last year. Have to say jake's salsa was almost shockingly good......

Jill & Darren's showdance
Mark R & Karen's AT

Tom & Camilla's quickstep
Kara & Artem's Charleston - one of the most criminally underscored & overlooked dances in Strictly history
Patsy & Anton's tango

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.
