Just curious.

Definitely
Also Ramps' AT, Rachel's Rumba, Colin' QS, Denise's QS, & Gethin's waltz.
I agree certainly with Karen and Marks AT, and Lisa and Brendans VW!! (Though with the VW it may be a case of refining and it would be a ten dance easy).
Colin and Erin did get 40 for that quick step in a special I think-so they got it in the end!!

Any from other series that you thought should have gotten the full whack?

Hhhm, don't shoot the messenger, but at the very start there's a leg movement that isn't in complete synchronicity, and I've always assumed that's why he gave it a 9.
Just a teeny little split-second thing, but you know how precious Craig can be

I always ignored that.
I did spot a couple of things in Rachbot's Foxtrot so.......
Alesha's Waltz, Colin's QS and (this may be controversial) Jill's paso, which is THE most underrated dance across all 6 series if you ask me

Not controversial at all, at the time and ever since on youtube it's been the outstanding Paso by anybody IMO.

Me too ~ but Craig surely couldn't let the integrity of a DARNCING competition be compromised thus!
Jill's Paso is by far the best the Paso I've ever seen on Strictly, I actually thought it was better than her jive, how could it only get one ten?

How many did it get? Just watched on youtube and it is amazing.
As for 40 dances- Mark and Karen's AT, Alesha's waltz (I really didn't like the waltz before that dance- that is one of the many things I loved about Alesha and Matt- they opened my eyes to what a beautiful dance it can be
)
well those were the days they didn't chuck 9s and 10s around for mediocre dances - her jive only got 4 8s remember and look how good it was compared to some of the crap that gets 9s now
Arlene gave Jill's paso a 10, but she was the only one

god those were the days!
Arguably any of the 39s...and a few others besides...but Mark & Karen's AT is the one that springs to mind.
Gethin and Camilla's waltz in series 5. I am glad to say they did get the Big 40 in the Christmas Special.
