You can remind the viewers but the judges will not be engaging in any positive discrimination, and scores will be purely on the performance on the night :nono:.

There's going to be a few twists along the way. But it's not starting until the 8th
My song choice is chosen. :fc:

I have narrowed it down to between two choices. Am torn which way to go.
Strictly Jake
28-03-2022, 04:27 PM
Ok here's some of the format changes for this series
All couples should automatically be given a score of 5 if there song fits with the theme. Of course then extra points are given according to the judges tastes. If a song doesn't match the theme then a score under 5 will be given
Also and this is the biggest change
Whoever tops the leaderboard with the judges score is safe from the forum vote. Everyone else will be taken to a forum vote where each voter will have to pick their 3 favourite performances. I will be able to check if any contestants are voting for themselves and deserved penalities will be enforced!
The two couples that come bottom of the vote will be put into the dance off where the judges will decide who to save. As to who is head judge this will be rotated each show. Week 1 will be Adam!

Welcome to Show One of Strictly Tibb Dancing Series 8. The theme this week is number one hits between the year 2000 to 2010. It's time to dance!
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:01 PM
Niamh and Giovanni with a Waltz to Christina Aguilera- Beautiful
eAfyFTzZDMM
Timothée: A lovely and competent performance. 8
Vanessa: This was very uplifting. I usually find the waltz really boring, but not this one. A powerful message and a great dance. 9
Score: 17
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:06 PM
Liam and Katya with a Quickstep to Busted-Crashed the wedding
QclbaDc_Kdc
Timothée: Certainly an interesting choice and classic 2000's! Lots of fun was had. 9
Vanessa: Woah, I loved this. I was up and dancing away. I've met Busted, as I'm a big fan. Lovely lads. Lots of energy and great fun. Well done! 9
Score: 18
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:09 PM
Alf and Luba with a Viennese Waltz to James Blunt- You're Beautiful
oofSnsGkops
Timothée: A lovely dance. A bit of an obvious song choice for me, but still enjoyable. 8
Vanessa: This had me in floods of tears, it was so beautiful! Really graceful and emotional. Outstanding. 10!
Score: 18
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:11 PM
Kate and Kai with a Salsa to Geri Halliwell- Mi Chico Latino
XgoKfHg1JsU
Timothée: What wonderful latin spirit and not a hint of cultural appropriation in sight! Fire. 9
Vanessa: I liked the cheekiness of this. A very sensual salsa. Me gusta mucho! 9
Score: 18
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:12 PM
Parmnion and Nadiya with a Cha Cha to JXL & Elvis- A little less conversation
Zx1_6F-nCaw
Timothée: Blew the roof off. The crowd was out of their seats and swinging from the rafters -
exciting stuff! 10!
Vanessa: I cannot listen to this song and not want to dance. It's impossible. What a performance, everyone is on their feet! 10!
Score: 20!
Kate!
08-04-2022, 07:13 PM
Well done guys so far and thanks for my scores Ness and Timothee
Alf and Luba with a Viennese Waltz to James Blunt- You're Beautiful
oofSnsGkops
Timothée: A lovely dance. A bit of an obvious song choice for me, but still enjoyable. 8
Vanessa: This had me in floods of tears, it was so beautiful! Really graceful and emotional. Outstanding. 10!
Score: 18Thanks Nessa.
Toy Soldier. I was limited to UK number 1 singles of the 2000s and a Waltz. So it's not an obvious song choice, there just wasn't much choice to choose from.
I originally chose "It's all about you" by Mcfly but I changed to this because I thought this was a better fit. Mcfly probably wouldn't have brought Nessa to tears.
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:15 PM
Jake and Jowita with a Jive to Alexandra Burke- Bad Boys
qFhvFzCRfiw
Timothée: A decent Jive but I didn't quite Jive my socks off. Not a terrible choice though. 8
Vanessa: You put everything into this and it shows. A very energetic performance and a great jive. Well done! 9
Score: 17
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:16 PM
Cherie and Gorka with a Rumba to Gareth Gates- Unchained melody
1ZkBdoROXr0
Timothée: I can see it and the dance was nice to watch... I'm afraid I just struggle not to be a touch bored by Gareth though. 7
Vanessa: Awww, bless. This was so cute! You guys stole my heart. Absolutely gorgeous! 9
Score: 16
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:17 PM
Barry and Amy with a Paso Doble to Nelly Furtado- Maneater
PLolag3YSYU
Timothée: I enjoyed the song, a 00's classic, I don't think it quite has the pace for the dance though and I'd have preferred something a little snappier. 7
Vanessa: I love a great Paso and this was perfect. Loads of attitude and some fantastic shaping. Excellent! 9
Score: 16

8ShlE-xobyw
Timothée: What is there to say? Romance, silky smooth, and it's Westlife. Oh Mandy. 10!
Vanessa: Very romantic and beautifully danced. Not an easy dance, but you made it look effortless. I enjoyed this a lot. 9
Score: 19

08-04-2022, 07:18 PM
Annie and Alijaz with a Samba to Shaggy- It wasn't me
T_x6QmuJdms
Timothée: I found it a little down-tempo for a lively Samba, but a fun interpretation. Bonus points for an unusual choice. 8
Vanessa: This was fun and very entertaining. Fabulous! 9
Score: 17
Strictly Jake
08-04-2022, 07:19 PM
Lewis and Dianne with a Tango to Will Young- Light my fire
BNwIqFGna2E
Timothée: A Tango that lit my fire. Wonderful stuff. 9
Vanessa: A bit of an usual choice for a tango, but I think it works.
I actually found myself enjoying this. Well done for thinking outside the box. 9
Score: 18

Looking at those scores this is going to be a very tight vote!!!Not keen on this rule. It more or less just makes it a popularity contest.

It still mainly depends on the song choice though as the judges score it first. If you get a high score with it your pretty safe. The extra votes are added to that score

I think we need a new judge if so, the scoring was a little too clustered with only two sets of scores IMO.

The theme is names of places or days of the week. Just to extend it just a tad

We could afford to lose one each week if we had an extra one though..perhaps let lewis be another one as well, then you come back in the game to fill his place, then we are guaranteed scores each time..:shrug:
Just a suggestion...and may I add another one while I'm here, my choice for the week, got changed..perhaps ask first.

So can we use days of the week or not?
Strictly Jake
11-04-2022, 04:29 PM
There's been quite a bit of confusion with the theme. Let's stick to place names or days of the week. I think place names can be a bit niche for the different dances people have it just extends the spectrum a bit. Hope that's ok Parm.

Most people have gone for place names anyway. Most have sent in songs now if you haven't already I need them by tomorrow please
Have all the songs been sent to the judges yet?
It takes Less than half hour to choose a song. So far it's 4 or 5 days since we were given our dances. What's the delay?
Once the song's have been sent to the judges then it will likely be another 2-3 days before they give their scores.
It's too slow for my liking. I had my song chosen within a couple of hours of receiving my dance.
Maybe next round I'll keep you waiting.
Strictly Jake
13-04-2022, 04:28 PM
Just a couple still to send in Alf
