Ellie's was the best even with the mistake

EvilRingahBitch · 16/12/2023 20:04

Very cute but the bit where he went up the stairs and then just slid down the bannisters was a bit random and pointless. Best of the showdances I think but not the best Showdance Evah I was hoping for.

Lampzade · 16/12/2023 20:04

I may need to start muting Anton

LizzieSiddal · 16/12/2023 20:04

They were dancing as if they were on their own. Strange as the song was about Friendship.

I think that was his standard theatre dance and you would expect him to know how to deliver that. He is talented but he's not had any journey and is here to get publicity.

Aren't they all??

SoupDragon · 16/12/2023 20:04

Pretty much what you'd expect from a professional who dances in shows really.

How is it at all comparable to Bobby who came into this with no training whatsoever?

Agree. You can't compare against a non-dancer.

MeinKraft · 16/12/2023 20:05

What I didn't like about Johannes and John was that there was too much sort of mirroring and I thought it was a bit boring of them just to do the exact same moves side by side. Nikita and Layton have done the opposite and it's fun to watch.

Is amanda Abbington there tonight?

jojom10 · 16/12/2023 20:05

It was good but not wow for me. Craig is the only really honest judge

CaveMum · 16/12/2023 20:05

It was very good, Craig is right though it was out of sync at times. Still think Robin Williams sang that the best!

I thought the same, thought he was going to do something extraordinary.

MissIndecisive2023 · 16/12/2023 20:05

I haven't watched any of this series - I had the wrong person down as the professional dancer. I though the guy who dropped the hat was the celeb!

AnneShirleysNewDress · 16/12/2023 20:05

I didn't like that. I'm not bowled over by any of the showdances.

Riverlee · 16/12/2023 20:05

Was ok but didn’t wow me. I hated the black gloves as I felt their hands/arms movements disappeared into the background scenery. Ie you couldn’t see them.

Felt Ellie’s was the best show dance (despite the lift).

I'm glad he's learnt to use his peripheral. Just the one Shirl? Grin

@AintNothinButARoundFrog I completely agree 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have loved lots of his routines but have not and won't be voting for him.

Crinkle77 · 16/12/2023 20:05

I was expecting more and was slightly disappointed with the routine.

KimberleyClark · 16/12/2023 20:05

AintNothinButARoundFrog · 16/12/2023 20:04

Loved the dance but Layton is a professional dancer and should never have been allowed to be on the show.

They asked him. He didn’t ask them.

I liked Bobby's the most

I agree!

MeinKraft · 16/12/2023 20:06

Gio and Kai seem to be great mates don't they? I'd like to be the filling in that sandwich Blush

Show quote history

Then someone needs to have a word with the talent bookers.

I am a bit disappointed with all the show dances tbh

ApolloandDaphne · 16/12/2023 20:06
