As much as I loved the pro's one, I hope not because they'd all just be too much of the same, there's only so much you can do.
The pro's were awesome though

I thought it was great, was that Hayley singing?
I only got a glimpse of whoever it was. I remarked elsewhere how much Karen and Kevin seem to like to dance with each other. "Ain't love grand?" For those who may not have seen it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eKxo_QHh24 |

Yes, Hayley and Chris
The band want bringing out more, it adds to the atmosphere, though tonight the BBC still tried their best to hide them during the barn dance. |

I loved the pro dance tonight and it reminded me of the football team dance number in the film The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas

A great routine, I can only imagine the fun the pros had learning it! Probably looked even better in the studio than it did on the telly.

It had very little to do with ballroom and Latin really, but surprisingly I loved it. One of the better pro dances for ages!
Then also a great jive from Karen/Kevin/Aliona/Tristan - we were spoilt for good pro dances tonight! |

Jimmy Johnston. It seems that he is an actor who has appeared in Oklahoma and other productions and is rather handy with a lasso, but not haystacks!

Oh the haystack! Oh the haystack! The fact that he seemed to fall over it in slow motion only made it more funny. Poor guy.

That barn dance was brilliant. Lovely to see the male pro dancers in jeans

Jimmy Johnston is a fine performer. Here he is performing Kansas City in Trevor Nunn's National Theatre production of Oklahoma from 1998. I saw this at the Lyceum in London. It was a great production with a powerful company including Hugh Jackman, Josefina Gabrielle, Vicky Simon, Shuler Hensley, Peter Polycarpou and Maureen Lipman. Even HM The Queen went to see it. Of course, the clip below is taken from the video version.

Watching it back on iplayer you can clearly see Claudia laugh as he falls over the hay bale and they seem to have muted the audience laugh but its still there.

I hate country music, I'd rather have something amputated than have to learn to line dance and it wouldn't surprise me to learn that Cotton Eyed Joe is the muzak in Hell's elevator, but I enjoyed that pro dance more than I expected to. Mainly, it's true, because of Aljaž - who I was able to take or leave last year, but who is growing on me big-style this - in that shirt and breeches, and because of The Unfortunate Haybale Incident, but also because the pros seemed to be genuinely enjoying themselves.
However, if they try to introduce it as a dance for the celebs, I'll be at the front of the mob surrounding the BBC building waving my flaming torch and - appropriately - pitchfork [/writing a Stern Letter to Points of View]. |

I saw Jimmy Johnstone in Oklahoma in 1998 at the National Theatre. Hugh Jackman played Curly and Maureen Lipman was Aunt Ella. Great show!

The pro's were awesome though ![]() To make something so fast and exaggerated look swish and cool you have to be good, very good. So its a No from me |

For some reason it didn't touch my dance senses.

I've been a bit disappointed with the pro dances this year. Last week's with Ola and Pasha rubbing themselves up and down a random door was a low point.
Last night's was fun and high energy. I too was in mind of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. Would not want it to be a dance the celebs do though |
