Best and worse dances of alll time dance by dance
Favs:
ccc - Mark and Iveta waltz - abbey qs - really hard but may well be Danny although I think it's joint with Chelsee's rhumba - racheal stevens and cherie lunghi tango - I think it's still Zoe ball for me jive - Jay paso - hard one but although there are better ones I think it's still Austin for me foxtrot - pixie and trent by a country mile - one of very few I really loved samba - Danny vienesse waltz - Kara - the artistry is just wonderful salsa - Mark R and Matt DA love both to pieces and can't choose between them charleston - very very hard there are several that are very very good but I don't really have a runaway favourite I think Caroline just edges it argentine tango - Ramps and Rachel Stevens Worst: I have not included Fiona Phillips because I didn't witness her at the time although I think most of her dances make the list and a fair few of Diarmud Gavin's - both have low scoring records which still stand ccc - most don't make much impression on me but although Quentin Wilson's was the worse I think Julien McDonald and Ewan Thomas's effort were more horrible and pointless waltz - I was originally going to call it most disliked but I don't really hate Nancy Dell'Olivo's mostly because it was so awful it's funny - she was such a diva even her props mugged for two countries and tripped up her dance partner qs - several disasters in series seven here - but Rav Wilding, Craig Kelly and Chris Hollins stand out for really messing it up - I think Kate Garroway gets a slight pass for dancing on busted legs rhumba - fiona fullerton - so bad that when I missed the into due to being distracted by my daughter I had trouble recognising what it was supposed to be, Carol Kirkwood's halloweon monstroisty was also bad because nothing fitted together the music didn't fit either the dance or the theming and she was bad enough herself that nothing redeamed it, Widdy's was crashingly awful too but that was most of what she did and just having an entire list of her isn't being creative tango - Kate Garroway again on busted legs so I feel bad, to be honest I find most bad tangos hard to recognise as tangos, oh yes and stats have Joe Calzage was one of the worst I'd forgotten that horror, Andrew Castle's had headbanging it and yes it was as bad as it sounds jive - Jan Ravens - at least Micheal Vaughan's which is now the lowest scoring was funny and kinda of endearing - this was just leaden and awful and Georgina Bouwhatsherface from the same series's was really bad too paso - Tim Winnacott - most bad pasos are funny this wasn't foxtrot - the Sarge's was bad but Matt DA's was irritating for those disliked him and heartbreaking for those who didn't ironically a dance were generally bad contestants tend improve (Georgina Bouwhatherface, Kate Garroway and even Fiona Phillips although I think she still has one of the lowest scores for it) although not Jan Ravens samba/salsa - because the bad ones tend to be indistinguishable - Widdy and Kate Garroway both had really awful ones from my memory american smooth - Ed Balls wasn't the first person to almost drop his partner on her head Andrew Castle beat him to it and Ola had to cross her ankles to stop it happening she looked understandably ruddy terrifed charleston - peter shilton and tony jacklin argentine tango - I kinda of liked Colin Salmon on the whole but his did include basically Kristina dancing around him kinda of Ore's only more so |

I won't do worst as I try my best to block terrible dances from my head as soon as I've had the misfortune to watch them. Best, however, is another thing entirely.
Cha Cha Cha - Alesha & Matthew Rumba - Kara & Artem Paso Doble - Kara & Artem Samba - Danny & Oti Jive - Jay & Aliona Waltz - Alesha & Matthew Foxtrot - Rachel & Vincent Quickstep - Harry & Aliona Tango - Kara & Artem Viennese Waltz - Helen & Aljaz Argentine Tango - Kara & Artem Charleston - Caroline & Pasha Salsa - Mark Ramprakash & Karen |

The first dance that comes to my mind is Brendan and Lisa's showdance... For worst dance...
The best dance is difficult, however the dance that still puts a smile on my face is Tom and Camilla's showdance |

All of Fiona Phillips were a disaster! 😄 She was a good sport though.

This is going to be difficult! I've done mine on routines I enjoyed, rather than technical ability specifically.
American Smooth - Kimberley & Pasha Argentine Tango - Rachel & Vincent (Claudia and Harry are up there but I've always adored this routine and the footwork in it) Cha Cha Cha - Sunetra & Brendan (always quite a weak dance because it's done early; I just went for the one I enjoyed the most, with the music and Sunetra's joy during it) Charleston - Kimberley & Pasha (a very close one, with Sophie 2nd and Claudia 3rd) Foxtrot - Georgia & Giovanni Jive - Chelsee & Pasha / Jay & Aliona (can't decide between these two) Paso Doble - Pixie & Trent Quickstep - Claudia & AJ (this makes me smile so much; Chelsee and Harry get honourable mentions here) Rumba - Rachel & Vincent (no one comes close with this one) Salsa - Claudia & AJ Samba - Pixie & Trent (this really is underrated and I wish we got to see it in the final) Tango - Frankie & Kevin Viennese Waltz - Sophie & Brendan Waltz - Sophie & Brendan (again always weak - went for the one I recall rewatching most) |
