What a shame I missed it. I would love to see it, wonder if there's any chance I can watch it somewhere?

Unfortunatly the answer to that question is yes. However I have blocked the memories of Quentin. I felt sorry for Hazel Newberry to be paired with him.

Hair department (made her look like Amy Winehouse's auntie)

Costume department (yuk)

Whoever partnered her with Paul Killick. (He's tiny! She looks enormous next to him, and that makes her look clumsy for a start, and visually they look such an odd couple). Plus he made her do that painful move at the end that nearly broke her back. No wonder they never asked him back for the next series.

Trust me, some of the fascial expressions are not as clear on youtube as they, very sadly, were on my TV - it burned my brain

I put in a vote for the Vorderumba. Makes me cringe.

Chris Parker's Batman paso was so bad it was actually quite good. Good entertainment.

Yes it was the face (expressions) that did it, and Carol taking it soooo serious.

You could feel she thought being God's lusting gift to men.

( maybe she was , I'm not a man)

I think Chis Parkers escapeade (see what I did there! ) was the worst ever. When I saw repeat footage of it on ITT a while ago, I remembered just how cringeworthy it was. It reminded me of children in playgrounds running around with their coats stuck to their heads like Batman or something. If four 1's were ever deserved!

Oh Chris Parker's 'paso' and I use that loosely was brilliant and awful in equal measure, it was the look on his face that killed me. That and the running around with the cape on his shoulders, and running/dragging around the floor with Hannah on his back...

I agree. Chris Parker's paso is engraved on my brain as the most cringe-worthy dance I have ever seen

Chris Parkers Paso still gives me nightmares as does CV's rumba and for comedy value is has to be Evander Holyfields christmas jive with Karen pointing to where he had to step next!!

I also agree with Chris Parkers Paso. He looked like Batman on heat. LOL

These are my sentiments exactly. I watch the paso with a mix of and - kind of like watching your dad dancing at a wedding...

The Vordarumba is just plain scary! I don't think I could watch it again, much the same as Countdown now - if I see that, all I can imagine is the facial expressions from that dance!

I agree on Carol Vorderman's Rumba - Not Good!!
Fiona Philips, she just had no rythmn/balance etc - No wonder Brendan got cross!!
Jan Raven's Jive, - embarrising!!
Will we EVER forget Chris Parker & the Paso Doble?!! - He left Batman in the shade - but it WAS funny!! - By comparison, to see the Paso Doble danced properly by Brendan & Natasha was just awesome.
Overall, I suppose you could add Dennis Taylor,Chris Quentin to that as well, but I have to say Fiona Phillips in the Rumba!! Just NOT good!
I know the Pros are the Pros and have been dancing for years, but to watch them in the results show is just brilliant, especially IMHO Karen & Brendan.

I'm surpirsed hardly anyone's mentioned Quinten Wilson's first (and last) dance. It was like a robot dancing. That was soooooooooo funny. It still makes me laugh jsut thinking about it.
