Strictly Training Video analysis

So Strictly starts in a little while and all the training videos have now been released. I’ve decided to analyse them all in one big post rather than 14 individual entries so that you can directly compare all of the pre-show training.

Aliona Vilani Hairline Fracture

If you haven’t heard already Aliona Vilani suffered a hairline fracture in her ankle whilst training with Johnny Ball on Thursday. Full recoverey time hasn’t been confirmed yet but initial prognosis puts her as out for 2-4 weeks, meaning she’ll miss at least the first show, if not maybe even the whole of this series…

Strictly Come Dancing 2012 – Premiere

Yes yes I know I haven’t blogged about Strictly, or anything for that matter, in 9 months but I thought it about time to get back into it. The reveal show took place almost two weeks ago and although I watched it at the time, this is the first chance I’ve had to sit down…

Strictly 2011 Final Result

Votes have been counted, the judges have no say but first of all the returning celebrities. Russell being held up by Rory & Robbie actually made me laugh out loud! Actually they all looked really good (though I didn’t see Nancy with her feet on the floor). Now for the results… …. The Strictly 2011…

Strictly Come Dancing 2011 FINAL

So the last few months have been fairly hectic for us, apologies therefore that I’ve not been blogging about the last few weeks. Right back at the launch show I predicted that Harry & Chelsee could both do really well, but never gave a thought to Jason – two out of three isn’t bad though!

Strictly Come Dancing Week 3

Ok due to our Bournemouth Dance Weekend this weekend I’ve had to save the blogging until today.  Rather than inundating everyone with posts I’m just going to do it in one long one instead. This week is Broadway week, why? I don’t know but I suppose they feel the need to have some form of…

Russell Grant & Flavia Cacace – Salsa

Well Russell’s certainly not shy, but his initial hip rolls are pretty awful, better once they start dancing.  Needs to try and use the floor more and I worry that it’s lacking a little of the impact that he brought last week. Some nice movements in there but yet another proof that you shouldn’t be…

Harry Judd & Aliona Vilani – Foxtrot

Hands are a little splayed (as Craig would put it) which is a shame.  Needs to keep his head up and really stretch out in his frame but there’s a great connection between them both…Emma wonders if they’re both single… A good performance let down by his frame – really work on stretching away from…
