Strictly Iconic - The Hall of Fame
Miah
20-01-2007
This is the place for the good, the bad and the, er...heinous! What moments deserve to be in the Strictly hall of fame, for better or worse? Do you have a personal top 10 of those moments that made you cheer with delight, or wince in sympathy? Was it the judges comments, or the dances themselves?

My own personal list is rather series 4-heavy, as although I started watching during the first series I didn't really get swept away until the start of the latest one.

1. You've Been Tango-ed: M & K knock 'em for six with some Gaucho magic!
2. Mark & Karen being crowned strictly champions 2006.
3. Two to Tangle: Salsa Microphone mayhem!
4. Muppetgate: The disaster that should never have been.
5. Arlene: "I just want raw sex."/Bruce's reply.
6. Quentin Wilson: not so much 'Dad dancing' as 'Sad dancing'.
7. Len's little Willy. R.I.P
8. Chris Parker's Paso Batman routine.
9. Rumptastic: Matt Dawson's infamous Bum-wiggle!
10. The Look of Love: Carol Vorderman tries to decide whether to dance the Rumba or eat her partner.

Any other suggestions as to what should be in the Strictly Hall of Fame?

I haven't done my own top ten (mainly because it would just be a list of things Matt and Lilia did ), but here are a few moments I would nominate from this series:

-Jan's dive
-"I hope you're happy"
-The end of Emma's Foxtrot (where Darren accidentally kissed her )
-The transformation of Matt (the acting coach and the American Smooth- my favourite moment from this series)
-Peter's Samba

-are pro dances allowed? because I'd basically nominate most of them, but special mention for the dance with Girls Aloud!

I can't think properly of moments from earlier series, but I'd definitely suggest Fiona Phillips' Waltz and Rumba- my favourite moments from last series!

1. The Gaucho and the Lady of the night....As you said Miah magic!
2. The salsa, and please please can we have another go! One of my fav moments! To which I replied/screamed at the tele: give 'im another go!
3. Len's comment: All Hot and Smelly! Just makes me laugh everytime I hear it.
4. Chris Parker's paso, nuff said.
5. Peter Schmeichel's Samba! Brilliant and bad in equal measure I salute you Pete!
6. Carol V's.....Rumba....*shudders violently* I still can't watch that all the way through....
7. The Muppet dance, disbelief and bemusement.....
8. The tittaruba!
9. Most of Arlene's comments that made me want to retch or blush.....

4. Muppetgate.
5. Chris Parker's inexplicable route to the final

1. Matt and Lilia's waltz - stunning, breathtakingly beautiful. Matt Dawson delivering one of the best Strictly dances. The genuine reaction (and delayed lol) of shock and elation after from Matt when he got the 10 - loved every second.

2. Matt Dawson's transformation in the Smooth week - just WOW!

3. Matthew Cutler.....The Paso......The Cape....nuff said!

4. Colin and Erins rumba and smooth week. Two amazing dances, one memorable week.

5. Spoony's return for the final - I applauded! They were robbed, we knew it, they knew it but they worked that dancefloor for the final

6. Denise and Ian's Quickstep in the final. Used that whole Blackpool ballroom floor and made their mark. Fantastic choregraphy

7. Karen Hardy's dresses - in a bad way!

8. Colin and Erin's showdance - when are the dummies coming off, they're not, TURN IT OFF, TURN IT OFF NOW!

9. Peter's Samba - one of the best laughs I've had watching Strictly


...... have to think of one more
