Hi. Just thought it might be fun to discuss what each pro dancer might choose to do next week. Style, music?

No idea on style, but I am really looking forward to what Oti comes up with!

Good question! I think Oti will do something very theatrical and contemporary/jazzy with a few showstopping lifts and probably more latin than ballroom in terms of ten dance content. I think it will be very attention grabbing and crowd pleasing.

I think Jo will do a "best bits" style showdance with more ballroom than latin. Going down the american smooth route I think would be the best option for those two. Think it will be very classy and smooth. Although if they actually choose his AS to perform on the night they may choose to go in a different direction.

No idea what Kevin will do... his one last series with Kellie was a bit random, but his previous two showdances before that were very ballroom focused. Though Louise I think is more of a latin girl. No clue! Her AT and paso I remember being very strong, maybe it will be a paso doble, AT, tango fusion?

I think Louise's depends on whether Kevin chooses to keep her in her comfort zone with a beautiful ballroom based showdance or challenge her a little with something more dramatic. I have a feeling he'll go with the former.

I agree on the other two. I definitely expect something like an AS for Ore and something more Latin based for Danny, possibly with elements of Samba.

We've missed out on a spectacular showdance by Claudia and AJ, I'm looking forward to Danny and Oti's, for me all of Kevin's show dances have been mediocre at best but if Ore and Joanne go down the classical Gene Kelly/Fred Astaire route then that will be one to watch.

Oh yes I forgot she actually had some really lovely ballroom routines, particularly earlier on in the show. Her waltz was really lovely wasn't it? And her VW.

I think if he could convince her to once and for all put some fire and guts into her performances I think a tango/paso/AT could be show stopping and get them a lot of votes.

If not a routine similar to what he did with Frankie could be quite lovely but won't be as unexpected.

As already hinted at, that would be interesting, in the light of the likely repeat of their AS (their best routine by far).

If they do, then could it be another case of Tom Chambers?
