I absolutely love the little touches he put into his routines. I thought that their waltz tonight was beautifully choreographed even though I was distracted at times by Anita's horns . He's such a breath of fresh air.

He's a great addition to the show and I hope he comes back next year.

I agree.

In total agreement here.

Yep, he and Giovanni have added fresh blood to this series.

Love 'em.

Me too. Great dancer as well. Really hoping he and Giovanni stick around for more series.

I look forward to him and Anita most every week. I've loved his choreography but wish the judges would give him and Anita more credit. I know they got a couple of 8's tonight but I always feel the judges are a wee bit harsh with their comments to them and Craig's 6 tonight was just utter pants!

I said this in another thread, but with the departure of Artem there was a vacancy that need filling for an inventive, creative maverick who takes risk with his choreography. Gleb is a welcome addition who has freshened things up.

His choreography does stand out as being different and that much more skilled/ better than the other pros this series.

Bit like Trent from last year tbh... however he left and Tristan (who I don't really like is great at choreography remained)

His edgy style reminds me of Artem, whose creativity I really missed last year. His choreography is exciting with a modern slant. I love it.

I concur. You just never know what to expect with them but you know that whatever it's, it will be good. They're an exciting couple to watch.

Totally agree. End of dance tonight got me up on my feet

His choreography is very good but it is worth remembering that since he's the new kid he can bring in some of his old choreography and it will be new to the UK audience. Brendan and Anton haven't been able to do that for years.

Good tonight,almost made me forgive the crab.

I agree with all the comments here. He is very inventive and I always look forward to his "specials". He also knows how to get the very best out of Anita - even though it is clearly not appreciated by the judges.

Agreed

I agree Gleb has a freshness to the show look forward to seeing him and Anita every week and hope they are in the final

I can't even remember when their choreograhy has stood out in a good way tbh... Sophie's Charleston? but that was choreographed for them.

I like looking at Gleb and I like watching him fall down so yes, he can stay.

I can't warm to him at all. His choreography is good. I wish he and Anita would not do silly face bits to camera just before the training clips though.

Yes, yes, yes daaaaarling. He's a breath of fresh air. Love him and his little specials!!!!!!

He and Giovanni have both been great additions.

I really do hope all three new pros stick around next season.

Part of it is his choreo, but it is also helped by the fact that the make-up and wardrobe departments seem to go the extra mile for them (last weekend wasn't theme week, for instance).

He really does show up Anton in that aspect, both have decent dancers (and both celebs are BBC presenters), but only Gleb seems to understand how to draw the attention away from any possible mistakes from the celeb. He is Artem mark II in that aspect.

From now on, he will be known as Gleb the Magician.

If there was a separate ranking of celeb and pro then he would certainly top the pro list (whilst his celeb would probably be ranked about 6th or so).

Yes, I too love his choreography. It's exciting and innovative.

Completely agree. that nickname is brilliant!
They are being either very lucky or very helped, theme, music loooks... All working towards creating visually memorable routines. the perceived underscoring only helps them, though I would argue that they are scored about right,m in comparison to Georgia and Jay, but slightly underscored compared to Pete and Helen.
I love him, and love this week dance but it's down to 75% Gleb 25% Anita.

Gleb's choreography is quirky and I love it, I hope the public keep voting for them because I'm not sure Len will stick by them if they were in the dance off.
