Not what I expected at all!

Christ, that’s close

1. Niamh and Graziano with Quickstep to The Flintstones


Cherie: Not the biggest fan of this music but I could see it working great with a quickstep

Toy Soldier: I wasn't 100% sure of the choice at first, but I yabba-dabba-do believe this was actually quite good fun

Kate: I'm very impressed

Cherie:10!
Toy Soldier:8
Kate:10!

Score: 28

2. Liam and Dianne with a Samba to I dream of Jeannie


Cherie: Loved this, thank you for the reminder

Toy Soldier: Certainly a very competent dance and a good choice of song, I would maybe have liked to see something a little more adventurous at this stage

Kate: Happy enough with this. Well chosen

Cherie:10!
Toy Soldier:8
Kate:8

Score:28

3. Alf and Karen with a Paso Doble to Tour of Duty


Cherie: Superb!

Toy Soldier: I actually really liked this - an unusual choice that worked very well. Stunning and brave!

Kate: Outstanding

Cherie:10!
Toy Soldier:10!
Kate:9

Score:29

4. Closing the semi final is Vanessa and Giovanni with a Salsa to Narcos


Cherie: Always a sucker for some Spanish lyrics

Toy Soldier: Again another decent choice of song but quite a safe one, I'd maybe have liked to see something a bit more exciting and surprising, I feel there was a lot of scope for a less by-the-numbers Salsa on this one. I found it a little bit lacking in passion

Kate: Very appropriate

Cherie:10!
Toy Soldier:8
Kate:9

Score:27

Leaderboard Semi final

1. Vanessa and Giovanni 57
1. Alf and Karen 57
1. Niamh and Graziano 57
2. Liam and Dianne 56

Look how close that is. I can't even put anyone into the dance off with Liam. You know what I'm feeling really kind and it's nearly Christmas!!

Congratulations all 4 of you are going through to the final. Well done every one of you!!

The whole of Narcos soundtrack is amazing!

I originally chose the Strictly theme tune but then changed it.

I'm glad the gamble paid off.

Oh yay! Regarding the Jukebox song there was literally 1 actual Tango style song which I couldn't use even though it was a different version because someone had already used it for a tango I the earlier rounds, my choice was a bit out there but it was the only one I could find that suited the tango [emoji28]

Just for interest I have added the overall scores for each couple over the series so far and this is how it stands

Niamh and Graziano 276
Liam and Dianne 275
Vanessa and Giovanni 259
Alf and Karen 249

Oh sick, how’s the final gonna work then?

I'm happy with that.

Oh wow, surprised by that

This is what I wanted to choose for my Postmodern Jukebox song but I was unsure if it worked or not for a Jive.

Don't stop me now, Tina Turner style.

I'm about to send you all the 3 dances you will be performing again in the final. I need you all to choose your showdance song and remember this is the most important song choice you will make as the winner will be decided by an anonymous poll on what showdance song people like the best!

Showdance sent. Good luck everyone!

I haven't got a pm off you?

Ok. I'll send it again.

Good luck all four finalists. X

Did you get it now?

Thank you. I'm so happy just to be in the final!:cheer2:
