I used to love them now they're just awful, much too Hot Gossip with a bit of Legs & Co thrown in for good measure.
No idea why they stopped doing the Ballroom/Latin based dances that they used to, they really were the hightlight of the results show, now they are just disappointing

The pros need to do the choreography like they used to. Its a ballroom and Latin competition I would like to see how it should be done. fast flat out ballroom routines. The pro dances were always my favourite part of the show and one of the main reasons I tuned in every week. Watching some of the pro dances on Dancing with the stars ours don't even compare. The DWTS dances are so exciting and show off the pros.

It's one of the worst I can remember. Liked the song, liked the costumes, but hated the choreography and huge props. One of the main reason for watching the results show was the pro dance. These days it's very hit and miss. It just has to be down to the pro doing the choreography.

It's like the BBC suddenly realised that they've accidentally made a popular program about latin and ballroom dancing and then got really embarrassed about it. Baffling.

just a few of the gorgeous pro dances we USED to get
<snip> https://youtu.be/5n_GY3GO_T4?list=PL708936A159832587 < seriously hot! <snip> I could go on - but I wont ![]() I really thought this week's dance was awfully choreographed and arranged. The shifting between the two songs was very clumsy and the stuff on the pool table and with the trays was rubbish. I though we were going to get an 80s medley and we got just two songs. The costumes weren't much cop either. Quote:
from Natalies twitter
https://twitter.com/RealNatalieLowe/...55102822854656 looks more like an exercise class than a pro dance ![]() Quote:
I agree. I thought it was choreographed by that moronic-sounding American guy who did the outdoors one with the Cliftons and Tristan - Christopher something - but Natalie tweeted that the pool table crap number was choreographed by Karen Bruce.
(Natalie didn't use the word "crap" by the way)

I have started doing something I thought was sacrilegistic , I tape it and FF I only watch the dance and the Claudia bits.
![]() I know a lot of people don't like James Jordan, but in my mind, Craig made sure he didn't get his contract renewed, as well as James being a bit gobby, know he is starting on Ola. That is only my opinion please don't don't shoot me lol I thought the singing on the pro dance was horrific as well.

I was trying to remember where I had seen all that faffing about with trays.
It turns out I've seen something similar at the resort I stayed this summer on my holidays, the evening adult entertainment was a "Latin Show", ie, some girls dancing to "Tequila" holding trays. |

It was definitely Christopher Whatshisface doing this one. They showed the pros practicing it on ITT, complaining it was hard not to drop the prop and they talked to the choreographer, too. Actually https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsRzQuARWDE

I was impressed by the running into and out of the film.
My guess is that they had a fine mesh screen in front of a film screen and when they ran behind the mesh screen, it seemed like they had run into the film screen. Then they switched to another camera filming the dancers outside an area of the screen where they superimposed the recorded film. Clever! |

Yikes! He's said he's doing several pro dances for this series so there's more to come! Let's hope most of the blame lies on Christopher. Or do you mean Neil assisted with the one that had the outdoors filming of the Cliftons + Tristan that they interviewed Christopher for -- or did Neil assist with the most recent one - the pool table mess? (or both?)

I didn't see it on Sunday but I've just went on iPlayer. I think the choreographer has been watching the video for Please Stay by Kylie. Watch from 2 minutes in.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-BqLVzbikM I was talking about the Sunday Results show dance. Last edited by RobMiles : 20-10-2015 at 17:01. Reason: Confused |

I really liked Pompeii from 2014.
That seemed to be a good compromise between modern techniques with video screens and actuall ballroom and Latin dancing. It's one of my faves anyway. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=64Ic4IIzOr4 |
