Maybe the topic title should be "The worst Sat on Strictly, maybe evah"

Pretty underwhelmed by the whole affair tonight tbh

There's a hell of a lot of them round these parts

To add : The worst AT was last year's bouzouki dance from Jake. Susannah and Sophie had appalling ATs in one series with MJ moves and Brendan shuffling Sophie around like a mannequin.

Not the worst AT I have seen a lot worse.

I don't think it was the worst ever but it was at the bottom end of the pack as far as Argentine Tango's go though. Credit to them, it's Movie week and they had a difficult song to dance to but Anita didn't pull it off unfortunately and Gleb's choreography didn't help.

All of the points above are my views.

Didn't Gleb say that he is not bothering with the basics? That was a few weeks ago.

Chinese whispers. He said the basics were hardest to teach.

Anita is my favourite but I agree it was not a good dance.

Was it the worse ever? Not even close

I thought it was Kevin who said it

I'm torn between was it the worst in dance terms, the worst in choreography terms or the worst concept.

Although it was poorly danced, & horribly choreographed Jay & Aliona or Aljaz & Helen couldn't have done much with that music or theme.

AT should be intimate and subtly sexy and not like a burlesque show with grinding a-plenty. None of that is Anita's fault.

She sure can sell a dance though, but not sure she can actually dance it.

I like Anita...I really do but she is not the only NON-dancer who made it this far at this stage of the competition. It is really ANNOYING that this fact is repeated over and over and over and over again and over again ...ad nauseum

With that being said, I was really looking forward to it but I was disappointed . It wasnt the worst AT tango...cmon that's taking it a bit too far but it was average at best.

Worst one has to be Jake, Zorba the greek Argentine tango, I mean when I read and heard about it I thought it would be bad, I had no idea how bad until I saw it, wow.

But Anita's for me is down there. Her feet are very flawed and this dance showed them up.
Also it just didn't go, the music and tempo was wrong. I thought had they used the talking parts it would have been better to do an Argentine tango to that part of the music, but it wasn't used.

No. That would be the answer Kevin Clifton would never give. Gosh, he is so hated.

2nd best to Jay , and she will get the backlash thanks to the inept judges who attacked her

To be fair to the other celebs - and most of the pros as well - the AT is an hors category dance than none of them have any knowledge of, so previous experience or not is a moot point. None of them have it.

Anita was like watching a Rabid spider.

Yes for a country bumpkin she certainly has got attitude. I bet she was a swot at school. She always tries her best despite her pigeon toes.

Erm, I don't hate Kevin, or any of them for that matter

Didn't he say something along the lines of the steps being secondary to the overall performance? I'm sure someone will rush to correct me if I'm wrong.

He said technique was secondary to performance as he was dancing for people at home, or words to that effect. I think it was Robin interviewing him from memory
