Beautifully elegant.

the80sweregreat · 09/12/2023 20:44

The Smiths had such wonderful lyrics at times
Not everyone's cup of tea, but I liked them

Riverlee · 09/12/2023 20:44

That was a pretty dance. Joanne’s is so elegant.

i was just thinking, at the beginning, people predicted Nigel, Krish and Angela R would be in the final, but none of them are , although admittedly Nigel is injured.

Best Charleston = Soph and Brendan (gavel) Grin

I have vague recollections of Georgia and Joe Varney Charleston being pretty good too

My favourite I think, followed by Caroline and Pasha

There is a gorgeous version of this song in Ferris Bueller.

Oooh I haven't watched that for years, think I might find it and rewatch.

Inkanta · 09/12/2023 20:45

Yes Annabel in the zone here - elegant.

Yes, and it was only week 2 iirc

SwedishEdith · 09/12/2023 20:45

I want Layton in the final because of Nikita. Just mesmerising to watch. I know she's had a sad year but I don't care for Annabelle. I don't enjoy watching wooden dancers.

AboutYouTalk · 09/12/2023 20:46

That was a better dance for her but she is not finalist material

januaryjan · 09/12/2023 20:46

TheShellBeach · 09/12/2023 20:36

Annabel and Layton will be in the dance-off.

Show quote history

You may be right - nothing would surprise at this stage.

If Annabel and JoJo go out tonight then they are going out on a high after that dance.

Just lovely .

Minimammoth · 09/12/2023 20:46

What!!

Are the singers doing something different? It’s like they are deliberately doing it very different to the original.

That particular singer I don’t like- it’s nasal Disney Princess singing.

I think they were copying the John Lewis Christmas advert version of that song, rather than the original.

Elderflower14 · 09/12/2023 20:46

Very undermarked!!

Inkanta · 09/12/2023 20:47

What's all the cheering for Annabel

ThePoshUns · 09/12/2023 20:47

The professionals all shouting ' undermarked' quite rightly so!

Jellykat · 09/12/2023 20:47

Aw Jojo, what a sweetheart!

I like Jojo's hair tonight.

DVO and James

Show quote history

AJ and Kai's Lulu Charleston was out of this world. I also loved Clara Amfo's and Alias's Baby Face and Louis Smith and Flavia's breakthrough Charleston.

Sunbird24 · 09/12/2023 20:47

Aw, JoJo making Carlos tear up there!

WelshFionaThePlasticSurgeryGorgon · 09/12/2023 20:47

Is this more gushy than previous years?

MouseMinge · 09/12/2023 20:47

Lovely version of the song. I loved that and cried a bit but to be fair I've cried a lot today over the most ridiculous of things so my tears are not particularly meaningful today. She danced absolutely beautifully.

Giving that 8s is totally out of fucking order.

the80sweregreat · 09/12/2023 20:47

That Smiths number is short and sweet, but the lyrics are just sublime.
They really were unique

Appalonia · 09/12/2023 20:47

Crying!

FitYeDaeinYeMadRadge · 09/12/2023 20:47

Bloody hell I am weeping
