I'd say in terms of entertainment, Alison & Aljaz's Samba and American Smooth and Judy & Anton's Tango and Charleston
![]() But technique included, it's a toss up between: Frankie & Kevin's Tango Jake & Janette's Salsa Pixie & Trent's Samba |

I disagree, I think it has been a great series, but nowhere near as good as 2008,2012 or 2013.
![]() Probably for me, this year has been of a similar standard to 2007,2010 and 2011. ![]() Anyway, I've a handful - Pixie's Samba and Foxtrot, Jake's Salsa, Caroline's Charleston and Salsa, Mark's Jive and Sunetra's American Smooth (now, if she'd managed to dance like that for the rest of the series...) |

Jake's Salsa is the single standout, memorable dance of the series. There have been other good ones, but his Salsa was unforgettable.
As far as a list of my top dances goes: 1. Simon & Kristina's Argentine Tango 2. Jake & Janette's Salsa 3. Caroline & Pasha's Charleston 4. Mark & Karen's Jive 5. Frankie & Kevin's Tango 6. Mark & Karen's Samba 7. Frankie & Kevin's Paso Doble 8. Simon & Kristina's Waltz 9. Jake & Janette's Charleston 10. Mark & Karen's Charleston |

Thats a tough one but theres one that I keep going back to watch on youtube and thats Pixie & Trent's Samba so that is most definitely my favourite, the fact that Jake's samba scored higher is ridiculous.

The dance that is like indelible ink in my memory is Simon & Kristina's Argentine Tango - Simply Stunning. Other favourites for me are:
Simon's - Waltz, Quickstep (loved it loved it), Foxtrot was adorable Caroline's - Charleston was super awesome Frankie's - Argentine Tango Mark's - The dance he did two week's ago where he was saved... that was delightful. |

Jake's samba. Mainly because it made me laugh so much. I will compete with anyone on the floor where the samba is concerned but no matter how hard I try I cannot do what Jake did with his backside. If I could I'd never have to walk home again!

Any number of Pixies dances could qualify. That lass was a dance machine.
But if I have to pick one (this won't please the Argentine Tango experts and purists)........... I will say Frankie and Kevin's AT. I was left utterly awestruck. |

There have been many great performances, but for me its Pixie & Trent's Paso Doble - I thought it was breathtaking and really deserved to score a 40!

If you're talking about technique, all the dances above. To me they're good but all rather bland, they miss the punch of a Jill's jive, Ramps AT, Scott Maslen jive or Alesha's VW to mention a few.
Every series has at least one dance (or more if it's a good series and we are lucky enough) that stands out and will be remembered for a long time and this series is Jake's salsa whether the people here like it or not, whether it was technically perfect or not. I can't imagine the majority of people watching any of these dances in a few years time on YT (like some folk do from time to time - me, at least ) with the exception of very few of them. |

I have loved many many dances this season so I'll narrow down a few and they came solely from Caroline and Pixie (the two best dancers imo)
Carolines Rumba, Charleston, Jive and AS Pixies Paso, Samba and quickstep What a brilliant season |

No-one else has suggested my personal favourite so maybe I am the only one who loved it, but for me...
Frankie and Kevin's Blackpool quickstep to A Town Called Malice ....is my favourite dance. I am usually biased towards quicksteps (and jives) as I am often blown away by the speed of these and in this one they absolutely flew across that dance floor. Len described it as Frankie's best dance and had a right go at Craig for awarding it a mere eight. Another lighning quickstep was by Apollo Anton Ohno and Julianne Hough in series four of DWTS; for speed and entertainment I felt Frankie and Kevin were almost rivalling that one. |

Jake's salsa and samba were tops. Thom's salsa was ace as it was the first time he relaxed and enjoyed himself. He put loads of personality into his Charlestown as well. Simon's AT was probably overall best for me, though. He took on the toughest challenge and mastered the dance.
