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…
Read MoreHolly Valence & Artem Chigvintsev – Salsa
Not sure on the head movements and her steps are still a bit too big for my liking but I do feel a lot more energy this week…though I still feel there’s something missing from the performance. Her arms can be a bit lazy at times but it wasn’t bad still don’t think I can…
Read MoreHolly Valence & Artem Chigvintsev – Cha Cha Cha
As Holly says in her intro, she’s dancing with last year’s winner so there’s definitely a lot of pressure there. Holly’s not looking too bad in training so let’s see how the performance goes. I’d like to see a bit more hip action and a little less posing, Holly also needs to keep her eyes…

So Strictly 2011 started last night, Bruce’s jokes return, some questionable outfits on show (not quite sure what they’ve put Robbie Savage in for example) and hopefully a whole new audience will be looking to learn to dance…you know where to find us! From watching the launch show I made the following predictions of couples…
Read MoreHolly Valence & Artem Chigvintsev – Strictly Training Video
Thought I better get the last few training videos up asap before the show starts at 9pm tonight. First up tonight is Holly Valence & Artem Chigvintsev with their Cha Cha Cha. Holly has a nice hip and arm action developing but I haven’t seen enough of the dancing in this video to make a…

I’ll have to go back to having a social life after tonight (well on my one day off anyway!). It’s been one of the best series of Strictly ever and any three of these finalists would have been deserved winners. The phone lines are closed…the hearts are beating…either way Artem’s going to cry! It’s the…
Read MoreKara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – American Smooth
Kara has a dodgy arm, and Artem probably still a dodgy neck, it’s going to be an interesting American Smooth! I can see now what Emma saw in her arms earlier, she’s doing extremely well to keep smiling. It’s going really well but then it’s head down just before the standing slide and a very…
Read MoreKara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – Waltz
I still wish Kara would keep her head up during spins, she always looks off balance, and this is a very shaky start, there doesn’t appear to be any confidence there. She keeps dropping her head. As Emma puts it, there’s just something not quite right there, she injured her arm in the Show Dance…
Read MoreKara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – Show Dance
I actually think these guys could produce the best Show Dance tonight, but let’s see what happens. I LOVE QUEEN! A bit of a strange section after Kara’s backflip with Artem randomly sliding across the floor, but they soon get back on track. A missed hand during one of the final lifts and another couple…
