[@yourbuddyash]

Totally agree! Certain judges and sections of the public seem to be demanding absolute perfection from her in order to justify a 40 which is never going to happen for any of the contestants because they are not ballroom/latin dancers! There has to be some leeway which everyone else apart from AJ seems to get!

The music was absolutely perfect for a dance like this, the leg action in those lines and lifts is absolutely extraordinary. Every single move had power, detail and meaning, it was so sultry and sassy, the musicality of this was off the charts, all the shoulder rolls and head turns, hair flicks etc were just so clean. This was an absolutely classy way to rock a Jazz performance and in my opinion extremely undermarked and ive lost all respect for Cynthia after that, giving her an 8 and Dan a 9, smh 😒.

In my opinion they have been exceptional throughout, (bar one or two average weeks) their waltz, this CC, the AT, Charleston to name just a few dances, yet they’ve been consistently under marked week in week out. I find their dances and routines the most exciting to watch. Rose is good too, but she has been a little flat these past few weeks. Think she peaked with her CC.

[@ef1876]

Technique-wise this isn’t AJ’s best dance; watching I can see several slips and mistakes in the routine (no shade tho, for the length of time she’d been dancing this is incredible) but performance wise this is absolutely masterful! She has the attitude, the chemistry and the poise required for this dance to an absolute T which, combined with the amazing choreography, is why this is probably my favourite dance of the season, even if it wasn’t necessarily technically perfect. I would have loved to see her perform this dance at the end of the season with a bit more experience. I think she would have been incredible

I loved this and although I'm not normally bothered about the scores, surely someone at the BBC must have noticed that AJ has been consistently under-marked this series? I don't want to labour a point, or to pick on one other dancer to criticise - I think they have all done some great routines so far - but, just as an example, can any of those judges seriously stand up and say, hand on heart, that Tilly's Couple's Choice was better than this?!?! I'm not saying this was perfect, it wasn't, but the dancing, choreography, execution, chemistry and the mood was something else and I for one would be on my feet applauding if I'd just seen this number in a Broadway show. If I then found out that AJ wasn't even a professional dancer, I probably wouldn't believe it.
