Come on JB and Lauren. You've got this!

[Nicky91]

well prove it then Pete, show us your 'improvement' then in this weeks waltz, no gimmicks, pure waltz content hopefully



JB good viennese waltz choice, finally that song being done justice rather than it was misued for Judy Murray at blackpool


Sarah dancing to a Ariana Grande banger


traditional quickstep for Chris, a cole porter tune

[Nicky91]

shame Tasha doesn't have traditional argentine tango music



MoJo with a cynthia erivo inspirational tune, nice a first time a song of hers being used on the show

might work nicely for a rumba i think



but a Tasha vs MoJo dance off, will mean judges of course saving their dance queen Tasha no matter how many mistakes she'd make

[Kate!]

Yass JB. Go on lad, nail it! I know you can.

[Nicky91]

Somewhere is a proper tune for a waltz, i listened it again just now


thankfully it is not the clichéd up Maria (which done Charles Venn in)


and One Hand, One Heart also recently been used for Helen Skelton if i remember correctly

glad it is a different WSS song this time



Popular is from this years version of Wicked, it'll be sped up for sure to match the dance but it is very lighthearted feel good, should suit Sarah's personality just fine



Six combined with an argentine tango doesn't feel right with me, i rather have Phantom of the Opera being used again then, but then a more dramatic version of music of the night

[Strictly Jake]

Sarah couldn't have got a more amazing musical for her performance. It's massive at the moment! So it will work in her favour so good for her

Also looking forward to Tashas Argentine Tango.

[Vanessa]

Montell is definitely gone this week. Rumba

Should be good, some good songs, good luck to them all.

There's a lot of slow dances in the line-up.

so?

slow dances can look oh so beautiful to be honest


a waltz is a nice follow up dance for Pete, after his tango, also a waltz is not as easy as one might think, quite complicated footwork and posture to work on, as well as in this week also getting the storytelling right with your given musical, as well as a choreo with backing dancers


nice one to compare Pete to, would be Mark Wright? from the reality tv bubble, and in all fairness he is better than Jamie Laing for sure (whom more leaned too much on gimmicky uptempo dances in that covid reduced 2020 series)

[Nicky91]

I'm Here is from The Color Purple, yes the oscar nominated film by Spielberg then turned Musical, then into another film


Cynthia Erivo plays the lead in the musical version, you know her i think, she was a guest judge on strictly few years ago, standing in for Motsi
