Semi-Final Dances
Claudia & AJ - Quickstep or Tango / Rumba
Danny & Oti - American Smooth or Waltz / Salsa Judge Rinder & Oksana - Argentine Tango, Tango, Waltz (see below) Louise & Kevin - Tango / Salsa or Samba Ore & Joanne - Argentine Tango or Quickstep / Samba I think Rinder having no latins left is simply because when they decided the dance order they didn't imagine he'd still be in at this stage. In the unlikely event that he makes the semi (I don't know the result for this week yet), I guess he'll do AT and Waltz. |

I think Kevin will pick samba over salsa
also think as AT does not belong to either we may find ore will do qs and at |

yes but if danny/louise/ore make the semis then we would have 3 dances basically similar as samba or salsa on strictly virtually the same

Salsa is a good dance for the semi's. I remember Caroline's ... that livened up proceedings
![]() I cannot see the Judge doing an AT ... I'm guessing Ore will have it. Rumba can go either way. Didn't Kara do her rumba in the semi finals? Really hoping Danny ... if he gets through .. will dance an American Smooth. |

Judge Rinder will have to do AT next week if he stays in, I don't see him being allowed to do two traditional ballrooms. My guesses: Claudia & AJ - Tango and Rumba Danny & Oti - American Smooth and Salsa Judge Rinder & Oksana - Waltz and Argentine Tango Louise & Kevin - Tango and Salsa Ore & Joanne - Quickstep and Samba |

Errr, stupid question I'm sure - but how come the couples are not skipping a dance this year?

Claudia & AJ: Quickstep and Rumba
Damny & Oti: American Smooth and Salsa Judge Rinder & Oksana: Argentine Tango and Waltz Louise & Kevin: Tango and Samba Ore & Joanne: Quickstep and Samba Though, as suggested on another thread, I wouldn't be surprised to see Ore & Joanne dance the Argentine Tango instead of the Samba. |

They are. There are three undone dances (not counting the showdance), and they'll all do two of them next week. The final is judges' choice, couples' choice and showdance.

Claudia and AJ could skip the Rumba, and have just the QS or Tango. Would mean no Latin for them in the semis, but Jay did VW and Charleston in the semis last year so it can be done. Aliona wisely ditched the Samba.

I might revise my guesses above and say Danny & Oti will do Waltz if they get through - not sure they'd want to do two dances with lifts in the same week. |

Rumba was always going to be a difficult dance for Claudia. I feel like she may have had more of a chance if she'd done it this week, following on from her more 'grown-up' AT.
After the Salsa, she's been put back into cutesy/kiddies corner, I'm not sure how they are going to make a rumba work. I would say Louise is more likely to do Samba than Salsa. |

No, they couldn't, because that would be two ballroom and Charleston ostensibly counts as Latin on Strictly. If Claudia had AT left it might be different, but she has ballroom Tango left.

I thought it classed as a ballroom - an American ballroom it used to be anyway. If it's not classed as either then she could still get away with ditching the Rumba.

The Charleston is definitely considered Latin on Strictly. And it doesn't really matter since Claudia did it weeks ago - she HAS to do the Rumba in the semis.

I think she may get away with it. She seems to have a lot of dedicated fans who don't really care if she produces content and she is good at posing.

From the results show - Danny and Oti have a dance "with lifts". American Smooth, and/or Salsa?
