How everything has changed since then, even the facial expressions! I find the "old-school" choreography really pleasing to the eye, I like its fluidity and the clear lines.

The song from the Group Dance Cha-Cha was an old familiar tune taken from the US tv show "M-A-S-H" during the 1970's and 1980's.

This was a really great competition. Espen is so great.

Such an artist, am always in awe at his work as choreographer too

Did Alan Fletcher injure himself in the Jive? He seemed to have trouble getting Hazel up from the floor and finished the dance early.
