Strictly Come Dancing 2010 – The Result!

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…

Kara 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…

Kara 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…

Kara 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…

Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – Rumba

Kara struggles to get through her opening VT discussing Artem, so it’s fitting that they have the Rumba to perform tonight, a beautiful dance we got to watch first hand last week. Kara’s looking a bit emotional at the start, most likely as she’s just had to watch that whole first VT on a massive…

Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – Viennese Waltz

A lot to follow this week after Pamela’s 40 last week.  Needs to watch looking down during the spins at the start as she just looked slightly off balance. Some of the transitions from in and out of hold look a little messy.  They obviously tried to put more in than Pamela and James last…

Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – Tango

So they have confirmed Artem will ask Kara out after the series has finished, not that I personally actually care, though it could make for a good Tango. I’m not so sure about the massive stamp action they’re both using, but it’s obviously a style thing.  It’s passionate and intense and I think we’ll see…

Strictly Come Dancing – Saturday 27th November

Almost up-to-date and it’s almost time for tonight’s Strictly, seriously where has my Saturday gone?! Not sure on Bruce’s joke about Alisha having a good tan.. First up tonight is Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev, I’m looking forward to seeing their Jive. Artem’s having a few wardrobe issues with his braces and Kara needs to…

Strictly Come Dancing – Saturday 20th November

Ok so it’s a little bit late, but we’ve been working out in St Lucia so I’m sure you’ll forgive us a small delay! I have a confession though, I already know who went home on both of the two weeks that I missed (pretty difficult to avoid the whole internet and all our students…
