That sounds very far fetched. Yes, I think you're right in that the above former boy band member captured a lot of hearts and minds that night but I think you can leave it at that. Those hearts and minds then watched him endeavour to match that iconic moment with varying degrees of success and carried on loving what he did even though it might not have been as perfect as "That Jive". However, I'd say very few of them were that bothered (let alone remained bothered) that said jive did not receive a total perfect score and certainly didn't let it affect the way they regarded the rest of the series.”

I definitely agree there, I for one loved Jay and aliona from the start them not doing that jive at the final really didn't bother me one single bit, I was so happy that they did the paso for their final dance which was a perfect end for their perfect partnership on strictly, I wouldn't really envision anything else to be quite frank. I really don't care that the jive didn't get the 40 it really did deserve because it's the actual dance that matters and how it effected people at that moment that's all, judges paddles I really couldn't give a toss about.
