Denise Van Outen & James Jordan – Waltz

A nice elegant start, but they need to start Waltzing soon as this intro is going on quite a while.

A nice head line from Denise, the fog makes it difficult to see her footwork at times. A wonderful Waltz with some great musicality, the start went on a bit too long and they could have done with more actual Waltz but I think I’m going to give it a 7 I was that impressed!

Craig: 6 “Saved the best till last”
Darcy: 6
Len: 6 “You’ve got style with a smile…footwork overall is poor…didn’t see one heel lead…whole package is great”
Bruno: 7 “So expressive…extended the lines beautifully…frame could be better..really loved it”

Total =25, leaders after day one!

I’ll have to take Len’s word on the footwork as the camera angles make it really difficult to analyse footwork, though looking back through the dance she does appear to be stepping on a flat foot rather than the heel.
