Kelvin & Karim had some dance background so what? .And Emma B is an actress and has likely gone to stage school so i don't see what the problem is , every year this same tiresome argument get's brought up about who's more "experienced" in dancing than others. At the end of the day they'll always be a few with some advantage due to their career or fitness.

If people want a competition full of dance virgins and zero experience with 2 left feet and stiff as a board , then all we'd have is Judy Murray's and Ed Balls'.

I don't really care about dance experience but more experience dancers are obviously going to be more stronger Emma probably had some experience but not much since she wasn't really that great at the start but got better. I don't know why you assume i was slating people with experience when i loved Alexandra Burke and Ashley Roberts.

Ok then
Biut people always complain or moan about certain celebs having dance experience when strictly asked them to be on the show in the first place .

But it's not like Emma was like Chris , she was a decent dancer but just had some off performances.

I know they do but for some reason Karim never got the slack Ashley,Faye,Debbie,Alexandra and Danny got.

tbf winners since Joe had off performances but got better but they won because experience dancers got slack and they had the progress the fans love which is why i found Kelvin's popularity a bit odd because he hasn't had that journey.

Really enjoyed all of Karim dances, even the contemporary. I usually hate that stuff, but I found it very moving.
That jive, wow. Hope he dances it at the tour

Kelvin challenged himself the most out of the 3 finalists honestly

with Samba (many had gone out on that dance and he just chooses that for the final as his favourite dance while he had higher scoring routines)

and that showdance, omg it had ballroom tango, bit of argentine tango (a dance which he hadn't even done fully), Jive, quickstep, charleston


while Karim chose the safer option with his 40 Jive while if he had balls he could've gone for his viennese waltz to try and improve from last time


Emma's was too safe into musical theatre with showdance



so yeah overall i agreed with my dad that Kelvin was a worthy winner

That's exactly how I feel AJ. I'm sure Karim is a nice bloke but he was too full on for me. I loved all Emma's dances, I adore Anton and I really wanted them to win, but I'm happy for Kelvin, he was amazing really... and Oti is my favourite pro dancer.

I don't think someone having "experience" should exclude them from taking part in the show. As an actress Emma Barton may have had dance lessons at stage school but is not a dancer.

The ones who take part who are professional dancers themselves in their career (ie. Ashley Roberts) are the ones I disagree with taking part since it's pointless and you may as well just have two of the Strictly professionals performing together.

I agree. Neither Emma or Karim are professional dancers. They just have some stage experience.

Karim is a professional dancer, look at his stage credits and the roles he had.

So happy that Karim and Amy are doing the tour together. I don't want to see Karim dance with someone else

that's probably why he didn't win but he didn't get the slack like others did but anyway out of the 3 i think Kelvin and Emma deserved it the most. Karim's showdance was a repeat of his couples choice and i didn't feel any of it.

I'm just glad one of the best pros finally won it! She had a contender with Danny but people couldn't get behind because of his experience and after that she didn't have anyone great until Kelvin. I don't think Jamie would have won it for her.

I liked Karim's showdance but i wish there was more content and more dance styles in it , it was mostly a contemporary piece.

It was the same as his couples choice which to me made it the worst.
