Audley Harrison & Natalie Lowe – Waltz
Audley has only apparently had 3 days, rather than 3 weeks of rehearsals, so I think this could be a poor performance if he hasn’t worked hard enough. Training videos looked ok, but a problem with his top line not staying still could haunt him throughout the routine if Natalie hasn’t got it under control.
I’d prefer him to do something more with his arms in the opening spot turns but in the lines he’s got some nice arm shaping and the frame does look vastly improved. Needs to ensure he doesn’t go ‘pigeon-toed’ though.
Another elegant Waltz, which is very difficult for someone of Audley’s height. Natalie still needs to work on his frame but a good start. I’m going to give him a 6.
Scores:
Craig: 3 “Hands, hands, hands, spatulistic…not for me I’m afraid”
Len: 5 “I think there’s a charm about it…do me a favour, as you walk by punch Craig!”
Alesha: 6
Bruno: 6 “surprisingly so light and graceful for someone the size of Everest”
Total: 20
