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!

Jason Donovan & Kristina Rihanoff – Foxtrot

Jason was top of the leader board last week, and the training midweek suggested he’ll still be there this week, let’s hope he lives up to it. Not sure on the solo spin and a few picked up feet in his first feather step.  Needs to watch his shoulder line and the pivots are a…

Jason Donovan & Kristina Rihanoff – Cha Cha Cha

I’ve often considered acquiring a neck brace to torture my students with, Jason’s performance tonight may make my mind up for me. Russell may have performed ‘the campest Cha Cha Strictly’s ever seen’ but Jason wouldn’t be far behind after that start.  Some nice hip action though, but he does get out of step on…

Goldie & Kristina Rihanoff – Cha Cha Cha

Goldie spent a lot of time in training playing around, now’s the time to see whether he’s taken things a bit more seriously for the live show. Not a bad use of hips at the start, and though it’s not really a Cha Cha I kinda like it.  A bit too Disco all round though…

The result

Don’t think anyone really needs me to predict on this one do they?If it’s not 4-0 i’ll eat my laptop! Didn’t realise Ian was moonlighting with Zoe! …and there’s the confirmation from Len. I think Joe needed to go, but he definitely went out on his best dance – what do you think?

Joe Calzaghe & Kristina Rihanoff – Jive

I’ve predicted this could actually be Joe’s best dance, and might actually pull him off the bottom of the leaderboard.Shame Joe was so out of time on the flick ball-changes at the start as it wasn’t looking too bad at that point. No real bounce in the dance however but could achieve some 6’s.

Joe Calzaghe & Kristina Rihanoff – Foxtrot

Joe has been consistently stuck to the bottom of the leaderboard, and I don’t expect things to change tonight I’m afraid and I still think he’ll struggle to achieve 5’s. Looks good in a tux though, and this is one of my favourite songs (albeit the Muse version!) Wooden start with the clicking, and needs…
