Merry Xmas in advance everyone!!!

Now that we Fmers have had our say on what was a truly phenomenal series of Strictly, let's round our thoughts up by choosing the very best Dance of Series 14.

Simply head over to the attached poll which collates the winners of each dance category (as chosen by us) and select the ONE dance which stood head and shoulders above the rest for you.

I shall keep the poll open for five days, after which the Winner's Winning Dance of Series 14 shall be formally announced!!!

Poll up - happy voting!!!

I was torn between several of Danny/Oti's routines but finally plumped for their Samba, mainly due to my reaction the night they initially performed it.
I'll remember most of their routines for a long time to come.
(AS came a close second with a special mention for their Paso)

2 of Claudia/AJ's routines are up there too - Lion King Salsa which so suited them and their QS.

Daisy's Waltz is the one I've rewatched the most, so I'll give it its single solitary vote.

Claudia & AJ - Quickstep

I thought Danny & Oti's Quickstep was destined to be dance of the series, but then Claudia and AJ done theirs and just blew me away with how utterly fantastic it was.

Danny and Oti's Samba. Great Sambas on Strictly are very thin on the ground ... especially when danced by a male celeb. This wasn't just great though it was outstanding and Danny enjoyed every minute of it. Fab choreography from Oti.

Well for me the very best dance was Claudia & Aj's QS, but i voted for Ed's salsa as that is the one I shall watch again & again. It was the most entertaining.

It was a tough choice but in the end I voted for Danny & Oti's VW. I loved that dance when I first saw it and I still love it.

Virtually too close to call for me between Claudia's Quickstep and Danny's Samba, I went for Danny's Samba in the end.

Me too, and it seems that Danny is still the most popular dancer, in this Forum anyway.

Went on the impact factor but torn between Samba for Danny, QS for Claudia and Jive for Ore. So these would be my top three, in order of preference.

I dithered between Ed's salsa and Claudia's QS as my two most memorable dances for entirely different reasons. Went with the QS in the end, but I'll watch both of these in the future.

Torn between Claudia and AJ's Quickstep, Danny and Oti's American Smooth and Laura and Gio's Tango. But I voted for the Tango in the end.

I was torn between Doti's Samba and American Smoth. So different from each other, and both so brilliant in they own way.

In the end I opted for the Samba, because I was completely mesmerized when I first saw it (and still am after about a million repeats ) and I think it was also a kind of catalyst for Danny, the first thime he just went out there, gave his all and had fun (after a gazillion hours of training hours/lessons to nail the techniques and movements, of course).

Voted for Daisy & Aljaz's Waltz.

Would have voted for Ore & Jo's American Smooth as my number one if it was listed.

Ore & Joanne's showdance followed by Ore & Joanne's 'Singing in the Rain' - and No, I wasn't a particular fan of Ore, but loved those 2 dances.

Many congratulations to Danny & Oti for snagging two of the Top 3 spots and to Claudia & AJ for making a very late bid for, and securing the 'silver medal' position.

See you all for Series 15!!!
