Strictly Come Dancing Training Clips – Wk 3
So Strictly Come Dancing is less than a week away from starting, the spray-tanners are spraying, the dress makers are sewing and the celebrities are shaving; and we’re being treated to our last few training videos. Up first is boyhood favourite Felicity Kendal & Vincent Simone. I read a great blog post about calculating your…

Read MoreThe moment of truth!
So it’s all down to how the studio audience voted, who’s going out first…(I’ve predicted it to be between Austin & Rachel) Chris & Ola – unsurprising to be honest as the Foxtrot didn’t really allow Chris’ personality to come across. Gethin & Flavia – lacking chemistry so again unsurprising. Ricky & Natalie Austin &…
Read MoreRachel Stevens & Vincent Simone – Rumba
Rachel was one of the best female celebrity Rumba dancers I’ve seen on Strictly, and I’m looking forward to seeing their dance tonight. Ah the pivot, ever an audience favourite, and well placed in a varied and sensual routine. However during the lift at the end Rachel needed to put some shaping into her legs…

Read MoreNatalie Cassidy & Vincent Simone – Rock and Roll
So the cartwheel lift, and the rolly-polly are apparently out, let’s see what’s left for their routine Sorry Ricky but already this has much more energy and fun than your performance – and there’s a knicker shot for Len! It actually seems a little too Jive’y in places but I’ll give this an 8 too.
Read MoreNatalie Cassidy & Vincent Simone – Samba
When I saw the training videos mid-week she looked a little flat so i’m hoping Vincent’s addressed that since. Len will definitely appreciate them going straight into the dance. For me i’d have Natalie take slightly more compact steps, this would help with the hip action. The bounce was improved over mid-week but I still…

Read MoreNatalie Cassidy & Vincent Simone – Foxtrot
Not too sure on the hair-bow! But should really concentrate on the dancing I suppose.Not liking the dance to be honest, it’s a little un-imaginative and boring and doesn’t appear to have much contrast of fast and slow. Lots of mistakes creeping in and overall a real let down for me. I’d give them 6’s.
Read MoreNatalie Cassidy & Vincent Simone – Quickstep
Natalie performed a good Jive last week, how is she going to cope with the energy levels required for this week’s Quickstep? Natalie has to control those shoulders, which do raise up at times, and the dance seems to have a very laboured start – though it does pick up after that. A slight mistake…
