Brilliant song choices! OMFG I love Bryan Adams!
And Dr Jazz has a tap dancing bit in it. I really hope Jay will be tap dancing, since he knows how to do it.

I'm not familiar with the Dr Jazz but went on YouTube and had a look and as you say there is a tap routine ....could be a show stopper for Jay.

I think Anton has marvellous music this week.....right up his street.

I can see Jay smashing the charleston. The modern take on it is very jive like, so Jay can do it and he doesn't have to gurn like a fool.

At this point i think the fans will have their favourite and will vote for them anyway. I'm just glad that Jay is in the semifinals. All we can do is vote and hope for the best.

Very happy with Jay dances and songs really hope he adds tap to the charleston. I know one thing this week is that it will be a travesty if Jay isnt in the final.

I think the modern charleston is better for him, because it has elements that he can do already. I can see this getting top marks. Expept maybe Craig, he won't give a 10.

Yes, i think they changed it. Shame, because i think the AT is more of a crowd pleaser. But maybe they didn't have enough time to learn it? AT is very hard.

In your opinion but I disagree
Jay is a boring mediocre person and he fails to express himself
And he's as interesting as paint drying

It must be the reason why they changed the dance. AT is such a crowd pleaser. It would have got the votes even if it wasn't perfect. Cha cha is very forgettable. I think they will struggle this week.
