    I agree really high standard this year , really good final

    Caroline a well deserved winner but a close call with Frankie & Kevin 

    Merry Christmas & Happy New Year everybodyimage

  • No doubt Caroline was fabulous....a couple of things that don't sit easy with me, a) she has had professional training and b) the way the judges (including Craig) wave their 10s around at every final, secure in the knowledge the outcome is out of their hands.

    Yes David they do use the paddles a lot as if up a creek full of crocodiles, and yes she as did some of the others who never made it to the final had dance lessons, many people in local colleges have those lessons some train in art and dance schools, it would be very difficult to find all none dancers. Having enjoyed the full session for what it is half show half competition roll on next year.

    Frank.

    I think Frankie has been technically better - and under marked - throughout the competition but that last night Caroline's showdance had the edge once the wind machine bit was over.   I very much liked the Fred and Ginger routine from Kevin and Frankie but a bit to long on the benches.   I also loved all the show dances being about dance and not acrobatics or props.

    Simon and Christine's Argentine tango was amazing but probably not such a crowd pleaser as Caroline's Charleston.  Frankie's Paso was even better than the first time.    Great show, great series.

    We'll be recording the Xmas show to watch later but OH says I'm not allowed to fast forward the Brucie bits.  Shame.

    Loved it all image When I finally got to see it. I was out last night & OH recorded it, but only first part image We have slow broadband and have watched it on Iplayer and it has taken ages.image

    Caroline's show dance was beautiful image Think Pasha had listened to our Frank and showed us her feet image 

    Just wonder what would have happened had Pixie not had an untimely exit.

     

    Obelixx I will fast forward on Bruce image

    Saturday's just won't be the same.
