I love Craig's look of horror when he called Anton's teeth fake and then found out they were real! I laughed at that for ages!

[@bodabodapasta1500]

“It was at this moment that he knew: He f*cked up.”

[@vickyupton93]

I absolutely love Anton a true gentleman, always treated his celebrities as if they were the best dancer on the show and he will be missed as a pro. However really happy to see him as a judge because you know he'll be fair but seeing the positives of everything as well.

[@bessieburnet9816]

This is such a great way to honor the last of the original pros who were there since the beginning. Anton has certainly had such eventful years. 😅

[@roddo1955]

I miss the days of Arlene. The best judges and the kindest pro's. Karen and Mark, Denise and Ian, Jill and Darren....and ofcourse, the incomparable Anton.

[@cameronclarkhull]

the fake teeth comment still gets me everytime :D

[@practicallyperfect2941]

It just made me cry laughing! Craig is so completely mortified - that’s what gets me

[@Armeandmackie2018]

Same

[@ribena607]

How did I miss this??! "Youthful and handsome and upright". "Craig's on the wrong end!" Ahahaha. Gotta love Anton!

[@irrumnaaz]

Aww, I'm really going to miss Anton as a dancer. His dance would honestly be the highlight of my night, it would either go really bad or really good 😂. In both cases, it was really entertaining to watch. If only he won 🥺. Good luck with judging Anton ❤️

[@sparkyomahoney4455]

Covid Strictly is not as good as traditional Strictly, it definitely needs a full audience for atmosphere plus all the dancers and contestants mingling upstairs was great, really miss that

[@strictlyfan0130]

i think there’s more atmosphere this year, its very strong already!

[@SheilaTitchener]

I'm afraid I've totally lost interest. hardly know anyone in it anymore.

[@oliviadaly4795]

@@SheilaTitchener I don’t really know anyone in it anymore (they try bring in CBBC presenters/KZbin’rs. to appeal to young people, but I know the older people more lol) but they grow on you

[@bellac6311]

i do really miss when all the dancers would stand upstairs, and when theyd all join in on every couples last dance. But covid strictly has definitely got better production value, and i mean theyre the first strictly seasons to include same sex couples dancing which means so much to me (a young lesbian who dances) i cant even put it into words. I love some of the new pros as well, like Dianne. But i do miss the full audience, as well as Len and ofc Bruce. basically theres good and bad in both "eras" of strictly, but each have their respective charm

[@cthewolf]

I LOVED Strictly last year. The couples were brilliant and we had some funny moments all round. AJ and Kai were particularly brilliant…I think it was TREMENDOUS!

[@lynncw9202]

Ah I wish Anton was still dancing. He was wonderful to watch.

[@kateoconnor9280]

I love Anton and will miss him dancing. Suave, debonair, a wonderful dancer/choreographer and brilliant comedy timing. Speaking of which - where was Ann Widdecombe in this montage? Maybe needs a whole episode! He didn’t get a fair crack of the whip with partners but got the best out of them where others might not have done. Wish he’d got the glitterball at least once. 🕺🏻❤️

[@jamesbutler6253]

Only just discovered Anton today, what a lovely man.

[@darrenstarling2063]

From my fave professional to fave judge. Have a fun day on your first night as judge

O Anton, what a joy, thank you for sharing with us and getting to become a judge, it was about time, you honestly deserve it!

[@katydickson5547]

Looking forward to watch Anton as a Judge.

[@UTubeSL]

Anton, I'm so pleased for you that you became a judge - and what a great thing for all of us too!

Make this a series please 😊

“There not fake” Craigs face: *uh um*

He’s such a legend !!

This just gave me so much nostaliga! Also congrats on 500k!

I honestly could watch an hour of this! Love Anton :-)

[@leightonharris5829]

Strictly is my favourite show of all time, hello everyone from Ealing, London 😁

+Leighton Harris it's my favourite show as well.

I will miss him on the floor but his natter is as good as his patter.❤️❤️🥰❤️❤️

[@helenheeney2284]

Gosh Antonyou are a treasure

[@ashleighpyke]

I remember Ruth and Emma they were brilliant. When Ruth covered up your embarrassment it was so funny

[@peterwilliamskelhorn6675]

@ashleighpyke the waltz he did with Lesley Garrett was great. he nearly won series 1 because Natasha's Samba was terrible(that's the only dance she did was terrible

[@siobhankatyhall4107]

“Craig’s on the wrong end!” 😂

[@geomilligano9408]

You are giving yourself such good scores lol 😆

[@leeyon_j]

I think he’s going to be great as a judge. Wasn’t a fan of him as a contestant but he is fun on panel shows and stuff and is very knowledgeable.

[@jacquelineedwards4140]

Loved teeth gate :)

[@SheilaTitchener]

love you Anton. always my favourite. if I had my way you would win every time!.😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😇😇😇

[@daviddillon172]

Anton has never ever said anything bad about any of the celebs he has danced with in all the years..An all round nice guy...

[@Nymbusangel]

Apart from that time he clashed with Laila Rouas

[@anonymouspeacefulperson6199]

No, just got his staff to belt them instead

[@madperson876]

​@@anonymouspeacefulperson6199 Are you the person who asked who I was and whether I was the daughter of Trudy from dancing class or something? I think this is just a very coincidental moment where you have come across someone who has the same name as someone that you know!!! xD

Anton is the King of Ballroom.😘🙃

[@elizabethbrown8833]

Love Anton. So cool. Funny n resistant to toxic. 🙏🥀

[@mikeykm1993]

It seems like the judges have got a bit more relaxed with giving higher scores a the years went on

[@oliviadaly4795]

Definitely. I don’t remember them giving 8s and 9s first/second week last year. Although I think in the case of AJ, she totally deserved those in week 1. Brilliant. Was getting vibes of Alex Burke’s jive to Tina Turner in the 2017 final

[@sachinmysorekar5593]

@@oliviadaly4795 I think it isn’t judges being more generous but instead the professionals are trying harder to prepare before the contest even official begins etc. Before celebrities took it less seriously and tried their best on the show without worrying about spending ages pre strictly to prepare.

[@melissacantrill13]

I love the banter of the celebrities and dance partners when they used to stand on the balcony with Claudia before Covid silly Covid

Anton was never given a partner with a chance... nearly all of them were odl ladies........

[@zxaddictxz]

Yeah, right... SCD had winners who were as old or even older than Anton's partners. The thing is, while a terrific ballroom dancer, Anton is a terrible teacher, and this video is another proof. He keeps his partners happy and entertained but does not teach them well.

[@outlookesp]

@@zxaddictxz What do you know about hos teachign methods?

[@zxaddictxz]

@@outlookesp I see the results, and that's what matters.

[@bessieburnet9816]

[@oliviadaly4795]

@@zxaddictxz so you’re glossing over the time he got in the final and came in 2nd with Emma Barton? Or when he came in 3rd with Lesley Garrett & 4th with Laila Rouass?
