Ore's Argentine Tango
Sorry but that Argentine Tango did nothing for me... Felt the intensity was "too much" and the dance lacked any subtlety.
Ore mostly seemed to "walk" the steps when he was picking Joanne up and throwing her around. Wasn't a fan of the dance at all. Think the Dance Off should be Louise and Ore. |

Joanne did all the leg work, he just stood there but he got away with it.

I agree, Joanne was doing the dancing and he was walking. By the VT before it I expected awesome, er no it wasn't

Ore's Argentine Tango: seriously over marked and over praised.

Joanne was doing a lot of the leg stuff, but the leg stuff Ore did do, he executed perfectly and with great subtlety, and his characterisation, posture and timing was faultless. I think he's amazing.

Sometimes less is more if it is well executed. What he did he did well (and Jo was superb).

I thought it was great and considering the music choice, it worked pretty well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ He really did a brilliant job tonight.

Joanne worked her little cotton socks off in that dance...err.....who was the fella?
Running interference as she did, she's assured of a place in an NFL team. |

His worst dance, IMO..lacklustre and messy with no cohesion.

![]() Danny didn't even get the posture right, and the whole thing was frantic and messy.Ore got the spirit brilliantly and was precise and intense. And I thought they got the same mark Could be wrong there.

However in an AT round of a competition I am expecting to see the SCD competitiors perform the basic skill of Argentine Tango walks and Ore didn't, but then nor did Danny or Claudia. ( I have forgotten Lousies's) |

As Craig pointed out a few weeks ago and has now seemingly forgotten all about it, the AT is action and reaction - the lady reacts to the man. He sets up her move. Ore did absolutely no action for Jo to respond to, it was all her doing. Ore just followed like a lost puppy, standing there as a sort of maypole for Jo. How can the judges react like it was this sizzling AT when it was plainly nothing of the sort? Even the audience reaction was a bit flat. It was a 7/8 at best.

Ore was just standing still far too many times . Not his best . That music was just appalling and ruined the whole feel, mood and emotion of what an AT should be .
Imagine if Mark and Karen had that crap music for their AT it wouldn't be remembered as fondly as it is today . |

I thought when they do flicks in the AT they should go between each others legs but they seemed to lean against each other and do them to themselves?

That gets to what so many problems seem to be with Ore - anytime he dares to score higher than Danny or appear as a threat to Danny, the long knives and cries of fix or fake or over-marked get thrown about. Which is a shame as Danny seems genuinely lovely and someone who enjoys supporting Ore and the others.
