Ooh, I was thinking about this list last night as I was going to sleep and thought I would start a thread this morning - and here it is, waiting for me - spooky!
Quickstep: Louisa & Vincent Jive: Louisa & Vincent (though - note to Bruno - it wasn't worth a 10) All-time - Jill & Darren (of course!) Paso Doble: Ray & Camilla. Also, Emma & Darren, but only for comedy value - hubbie & me had hysterics every time she gurned!!! All-time : Dazzler & Lilia Foxtrot: none springs to mind. V.Waltz: Ray & Camilla, closely followed by Carol & Matt Waltz: Matt & Lilia (I actually applauded!) American Smooth: Matt & Lilia (I applauded again!) Rhumba: please do away with this dance. It's lovely when the pros do it, but it is too much for the celebs. Even Colin 'Snake Hips' Jackson looked uncomfortable doing it* Samba: Mark & Karen (for party feeling) Plus an honourable mention for Peter & Erin (well, it was memorable!) Salsa: Mark & Karen (what drama! what fun! Probably my fave dance of all time!) Closely followed by Carol & Matt Cha cha cha: Toss up between Carol & Matt and Ray & Camilla. In both cases, great choice of music - it does help (take note Louisa & Vincent) Tango: Mark & Karen (despite the music, which seemed strange at first, but grew on me) All-time - Anton & Patsy (memorable slaps! Thought she was a contender after that dance - oh, dear...). Bonus category - Best Show Dance : Dazzler & Lilia Now that's off my chest, maybe I'll get to sleep at a decent time tonight ... *How about the Argentine Tango instead? |

I haven't seen enough of the past series' to comment, so I will stick to what I've liked this year:
Quickstep: Matt/Lilia, or Emma/Darren (except for the wiggling bit at the end, which looked odd to me) Jive: Louisa/ Vincent Paso Doble: Louisa/Vincent Foxtrot: Carol/Matthew V.Waltz: Ray/Camilla Waltz: Matt/Lilia American Smooth: Matt/Lilia Rumba: Matt/Lilia Samba: Mark/Karen Salsa: Mark/Karen Cha cha cha: Louisa/Vincent Tango: Louisa/Vincent, marginally ahead of Mark/Karen and Emma/Darren - all good! |

Agree with Missy Moo re- rumba - get rid of it. No-one looks comfortable doing it. Except Colin Jackson, who could do no wrong in my eyes. Can't WAIT to see him again on the Christmas spesh.
Just a few that stand out, not just from this year... Quickstep: Matt & Lilia Jive: Jill & Darren Rhumba: Colin & Erin Salsa: Last year's group salsa - I was grinning for days! Tango: Emma & Darren Bonus: Flavia & Vincent's AT on Saturday. Jaw-on-floor brilliant. Last edited by lady-muck : 14-12-2006 at 16:24. |

I am resurrecting this thread...
I would mention the songs they danced to as well - songs count a lot for me ... (Got most of them on my iPod)Quickstep: Colin and Erin ('Nice work if you can get it') Jive: Jill and Darren ('I'm still standing'), and Louisa and Vincent ('Smiling face' ) come close second Paso Doble: Letitia and Darren ('Live and let die'), Darren and Lilia ('Don't let me be misunderstood') are also fantastic Foxtrot: Will and Hanna ('Dream a little deam') and Darren and Lilia ('Big Spender') V.Waltz: Kelly and Brendan ('Delilah') Waltz: Matt and Lilia ('What a wonderful world') American Smooth: Matt and Flavia ('For once in my life'), although I also have a massive soft spot for Patsy and Anton ('It had to be you') Rhumba: Patsy and Anton ('She'). Zoe and Ian were good, too ('One moment in time') Samba: Don't like any of them Salsa: John and Nicole (?? Salsa music) Cha cha cha: Louisa and Vincent ('Rescue me') Tango: Patsy and Anton (Gotan Project's song... don't remember the name) A.Tango: Don't like any of them, though I like Golden Eye (the song done by Mark and Karen) Pro-dance: The Argentine tango that Vincent and Flavia did in SCD3 - that was mesmerizing! |
