Ann Widdecombe & Anton Du Beke – Charleston
Charleston could be a car crash, they’re definitely going to go down the comedy angle on this one. Ok it seems I spoke too soon. They’ve put lots of dancing into it and although it lacks any foot swivelling I do think it’s got as much energy as Ann could manage. Some jokes surrounding the…
Read MoreKara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – Charleston
Another of the front-runners, I felt some of the others haven’t performed quite as well this week so a chance for Kara to jump up the table. Kara really isn’t wearing a lot is she?! Needs just a little more swivel at times but a good performance, not sure whether the lifting of Artem from…
Read MoreMatt Baker & Aliona Vilani – Charleston
Matt and Aliona were great at the International Championships at the Royal Albert Hall on Thursday night, even going onto the main dance floor and hanging around to sign autographs. I think this could be the best dance of tonight given Matt’s gymnastic abilities. So Matt’s going to start on a unicycle. Slight slip and…
Read MorePeter Shilton & Erin Boag – Charleston
Peter’s not his best when he’s dancing on his own, so Charleston could be a disaster… Oh dear, Peter does look like he’s a bit of a puppet on a string at times, better in hold but unfortunately not much of that in this routine and he obviously isn’t confident in the routine as he…
Read MorePatsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – Charleston
Liking the Chicago look. Nice swivel action at the start but I feel there’s a slight lack of energy in the routine. Patsy’s smiling but doesn’t appear to be exuding enjoyment. I don’t know whether it’s just heavy or not, another finish with a kiss though. Overall I’m a little underwhelmed, only a 6 I’m…
Read MoreTina O'Brien & Jared Murillo – Charleston
Tina missed last week due to a case of chicken pox, let’s hope it hasn’t affected their training too much. Tina needs to be careful about flinging her hands out a little too much, and not to “cowboy” walk too much. Needs to also try and get more swivel from her feet. Again not a…
Read MoreJimi Mistry & Flavia Cacace – Charleston
I’m liking the energy, though I’m not sure about Jimi’s cartwheel and some of the moves I think Jimi is cutting short due to the speed of the routine. An entertaining routine but I do feel the whole thing just felt a little clipped at times. I’m going to give it a 7. Judges comments…
Read MoreStrictly Come Dancing – Saturday 23rd October
So this week will see the couples dancing either a Tango or a Charleston. Tina O’Brien will return from her chicken pox whilst Ann Widdecombe will be flying through the air. It promises to be an entertaining week and yet again I’ve not had a chance to watch the training videos so I have no…
Read MoreStrictly Come Dancing – Sunday 17th October Results
Ok I know it’s a bit late, and most of you already know the results of the show, but I’ll blog about it anyway. From watching the show on Saturday night I predicted Michelle would have the lowest audience votes and would be going home, but I also suggested on our Facebook page that Paul…
