I feel so sorry for Judge Rinder & Oksana. They will be teated as the other camp/joke act with that song

Sorry I didn't know you made one

Thanks hannah for the thread
ECSTATIC with Danny, the judge and Ed song choices.

I really think that everyone has pretty much good songs. It should be a great show.

I remember Chelsee and pasha dancing a samba to spice up your life at wembley. This show loves to recycle songs. Now the judge is dancing a SALSA to it. NO wonder some viewers STILL don't know the difference between a salsa and samba on this show .

I like most songs, Louise's I am not sure about.

There's some great songs there (Ore has an absolute corker!).

At least Rinder doesn't have a disco song for the salsa but I still think he's got the worst of it there. And I'm not a massive fan of Greg's choice tbh.

Why does Rinder get all these iconic gay anthems? He has said he doesn't even listen to modern music. Leave him alone, BBC...

All is forgiven.

Judge Rinder's Salsa song!

wonder if Ore's dance is wrong?? and it should be foxtrot but that is no v.waltz

Ore's is a great foxtrot but it just is no V.Waltz whatsoever

I can see Danny's music as a Quickstep, unsure how it'll work as a Charleston.

Also why do Aj and Claudia always get the cutesy, teeny-bop songs. .....we know they're young. ..we get ittttttttttttt 😒

we have this version at school is great charleston

I need to register to the Bond track to determine if it works. But it at least has no words so won't distract.

Really not feeling some of the songs this week.

Rinder in trouble this week

Hideous

Two threads is confusing. Anyway anyone listen to the Bond track and determine it's suitability for a paso? I will give it a listen when I get home.

Looks like Danny & Oti are doing a proper 20/30s themed Charleston which am happy about!

More suited to a Riverdance interlude

Make that three threads. There is already a week 9 dances thread which has been running for a few days

Probably. Hard to say for sure. It could be a crowd pleaser.

One thing that might help is that he should be the last act on this week...as he's the only contestant who has never closed a show. Depends if they play fair or not.

Emma Bunton did a Paso to the same track many years ago and scored 37

BIB have got the best. Louise & Kevin nabbing the most appropriate music AGAIN!!!
Like Danny's tune but for a Charleston? Will be interesting to see what the lovely Oti conjures up. Similar with Ore's...


If they are good enough for these past participants...

That's a really odd choice. But then, in this series in which good song choices are rare it's not strange.
