Not Liam getting exactly the same scores

[Strictly Jake]

3. Next up is Kate and Louis with a* Foxtrot to Let it Snow- Dean Martin

Youtube video

Mitchell:
this really would’ve worked better for a quickstep, but still a good effort.



Amy Jade:
I'm giving them out like nobodys business but you deserve top marks, this was lovely, gave me instant visuals of you and your lover in a cottage dancing to the light from the fire. Outstanding.



Barry:
A classic from Die Hard 2 which is set during Christmas too. You gave me a powerful foxtrot.



Mitchell:7
Amy Jade:10!

4. Next is Niamh and Joe with a Quickstep to Man with the bag- Jessie J

Youtube video

Mitchell:
hope he’s got me a pressie xx


Amy Jade:
This is by far my favourite week ever as a viewer and a judge. You've all done so well, I am a happy Christmas elf watching you slay the dance floor. You were fabulous!


Barry:
I thought this went well with a quickstep and I’d even say the last song could of also been a quickstep. Good job.

Amy Jade:10!

5. Next up is Denver and Alison with a Jive to All I want for Christmas- Mariah

Youtube video

Mitchell:
would’ve been higher, but it has been used on strictly before as a jive, but still cute.


Amy Jade:
I was on a run of 10's and I'm sad to see somebody use a performance I have already seen on Strictly as I do dock points for that but you were just as good as Helen Skelton and she was perfect so Merry Christmas.



Barry:
The biggest song for Christmas you could of sent. Felt safe but I loved it. Your jive was woah!!



Mitchell:6
Amy Jade:10!
Barry:9

6. Closing the show is Nicky and Frankie with a Charleston to Sleigh Ride- The Ronettes

Youtube video

Mitchell:
this worked well, but unfortunately it’s been used on strictly quite a few times, so I can’t give it any higher.


Amy Jade:
This was charming, kitch and just a joy. Well done this week you excelled yourself and made me a very happy judge this week. Thank you.



Barry:
Like I said with the Jesse I song, I thought this suited a quickstep but I can see it being a Charleston too so good job.

The fact there’s only 5 points between the top and bottom 2 is a credit to how brilliant you’ve all been this week, absolutely phenomenal

I’m surprised Adam sent a song used before as he would dock points for that reason when he was a judge. Chile....

[Beso]

Well said..

It is always something I have checked every week before entering my song..

Poor judging imo.
