That ending was truly hard to watch, seeing Bobby stare at himself alone was really moving. I think this is everything contemporary should be moving and fluid. Proud he was able to tell such a beautiful story that so many can relate to. ❤️❤️❤️

[@scarl0tt1]

This dance moved me to the point i started balling my eyes out, such a wonderful tribute to Bobby’s mum. Deserved all 10s. Congrats Bobby and Dianne, beautiful dance and brilliant song choice & choreography. Hope to see you guys next week ❤

He doesn’t have a ounce of formal training + having longer limbs can make it harder to make elegant clean lines, yet he has pulled off another beautiful routine. You two should be so proud of yourselves, well done ( from a fan over in Canada)

As someone who trained in contemporary dance at a conservatoire in the Uk for university. Bobby is just as good as some of the foundation/first yr boys, and if he wanted to, he could totally train and make a career out of it. He is so good for the amount of training he has had and so much potential!

[@mabel8179]

Now, I am a rubbish dancer, despite doing dance O level at school, but I aways liked watching the vintage dancers in films like Fred Astaire and seen Wayne Sleep live in the 1980s, but I have no expertise yet..Bobby really impressed me as having natural talent. So good to know that a professional dancer agrees with my intuition about his ability.

[@charliefarlie2884]

He's a natural at contemporary dance. Beautiful

[@Happydayzzz_]

The fact that he’s one of the only celebs with no dance experience left in the competition holding is own against all the other contestants with dance backgrounds. Bravo Bobby 👏

Beautifully said

I hope this moment leads to more people reading into what happened to Jade Goody and how important attending your cervical screening is. If it raises awareness again of Cervical screening it could be life saving for some. Well done Bobby 👏🏼

[@charliejury6166]

This is up there with Rose's couples' choice for hitting all the right notes for the right things. Absolutely fantastic, Bobby and Diane. Geoff, you've raised a beautiful young man there. Jade, you'd be proud.

OK. Crying even before they danced. Beautiful. Well done Bobby and Dianne.

[@susanhighfield3370]

This was so beautiful and emotional it made me cry and felt so sorry for Bobby who lost his mum so young, she would be so proud of what a beautiful young man he has become.

[@courtneygroves9212]

most beautiful, emotive, moving dance i've personally ever seen on strictly! the storytelling was incredible, beautifully choreographed and beautifully performanced! dance of the night for me

[@ryansmith4647]

When you can move an audience not just in the studio. But at home 2 you've got something special this was simply stunning.

[@xSpiderZB]

This was just beautiful. Definitely dance of the night. I feel for bobby as my mum died when i was only 5. Can't believe that motsi didn't give this a 10

[@gerardsloan1593]

OMG pure emotion and from the heart. This was beautiful and the high marks were well deserved. It was also nice considering they were in the dance off last week (hopefully their last until the final). Diane is always so costive and upbeat and it reflects on her student(s). Have a good day reader :)

[@emilysgottalent4806]

I remember the moment Jade’s story came to blows, it was such a massive shock and such heartbreak, I always wondered and worried about how the boys would cope later in life but seeing this just makes me so proud on how far they’ve come, Jeff Braizer is an absolute amazing Dad

[@Happydayzzz_]

Best of the night for me! Absolutely beautiful! They told a story from beginning to end! A lovely tribute to his mum and she’d be so proud of the man he’s become! If these aren’t sailing through tonight it’s pure robbery

[@megsunset]

Beautiful. I've never felt the way I did watching a dance on Strictly before. I was completely lost in the storytelling, as if time literally just stopped. Absolutely incredible dance! ❤

[@suzanneandrews2942]

I cried in the intro and blubbed throughout, so emotional and a beautifully portrayed moment of reflection and respect for his mum twinned with effortless dance moves and a wonderful version of this amazing song...perfect Bobby, your mum would be so so proud ❤

[@babyjane1363]

Everything about this routine had me choked up, emotional, captivating, beautiful, also the song, the lyrics made my heart swell. ❤

[@izzyc127]

I’m an American fan of the series and let me just say, I’m trying not to cry from this dance because this was beautiful! 🥹😭 Bobby’s Mom will forever be his guardian angel and also proud of the person he has become today!

[@thedruekefamilyadventures8890]

I have never ever cried watching a dance before, and this one has me hyperventilating. Im in the US, so I couldnt vote, but I have faith that every SCD fan in the UK will do the right thing for Bobby and Dianne❤️

[@patdoe5242]

I loved the fact when Bobby said this is a tribute for his mum it was so touchy and wonderful to watch

[@bessieburnet9816]

...Wow, ok... That got me... I have never actually cried at any emotional stuff before, but that image at the end there... That broke me.... And such a darn beautiful dance. Such a skilled young man. His mother would be so proud!! 🥲😭❤️ Their first tens so well damn deserved

[@ss-ez4jb]

words cant describe how beautifully this young man danced full of heart and expression, with another free spirit Dianne❤

[@ribena607]

Think this is his best dance so far, partly due to their synchronicity, but mostly because he put so much of himself into it.

[@Laura329]

A beautiful song, a beautiful performance and a beautiful young man with so much potential. The VT had me tearful. Bobby is exactly what strictly is all about

[@alisonmccannoffline]

That sure was the most beautiful wonderful Couple's Choice by Bobby & Dianne, I truly had tears streaming down my face, on hearing the song and he truly did this especially as a tribute to his mum Jade, and his dad Jeff, and his brother Freddie will be so very extremely proud of Bobby now that he come this far, definitely got my votes. Bobby & Dianne will definitely will make it to the SCD final.😀👍👍🕺💃⭐⭐

[@merciagysman1869]

I was patiently waiting for this ever since SCD started. Most celebrities already paid tributes to their loved ones and I was like come on Bobby when Are you going to do it ? Lo and behold tonight was the night I couldn’t handle it , was weeping endlessly. 😳guess what I couldn’t pay more attention to Ellie and Vito.😂. I really salute this young lad his bravery and strength it’s out of this world . Good luck Bobby ❤️🙏

[@pennyandfishy7241]

Score - *10/10* Wow! My favourite of the night for sure, what a dance, this time I really felt Bobby's heart and the magic of dance. The lifts matched the lyrics, everything came together as a performance, the leaps, the turns, the floorwork. I'm so glad we got a Contemporary instead of Street and that it was from them, it was personal and heartfelt. Very emotional and it's rare that the music interprets what the dancer is going through on strictly, I felt for Bobby that happened tonight. I would love to see Dianne win too, she is so genuine 🥰

[@Whoevenknows2000]

So beautiful. Definitely made me cry.

[@becca21101]

[@user-cl8xh6bc9y]

One of the most beautiful dances from this series so far - love Bobby and Diane ❤ Bobby is an absolute sweetheart 💕

[@Kayleigh169]

I won’t lie during the VT of Bobby talking about Jade & then what Jeff said I started to get teary. But then during the dance it bawled like a baby. The man standing by the bloke who danced with Janette a few years ago was crying. Bobbys dad & brother, a lot of the audience and even the pros Kai, Lauren & Nadiya we’re crying and Jowita couldn’t even look up she kept her head down through Bobby & Dianne talking to Claudia because she was so upset. I couldn’t imagine losing my mam at 4. But I bet Jade is looking down in Bobby and she is so proud of the incredible young man he has turned into. And Jeff has done a fantastic job raising Bobby & his brother. I would be gutted if Bobby left this week. But Ellie & Vitto are my winners this year

[@wendytoledano8871]

Absolutely heart wrenching and beautiful at the same time. Dance of the night. It’s a 10 from me ❤❤ my winners

[@PreppiesX0X0]

Wow!! Dianne I said to you you’d smash it! And did you? YES !!!! Loved loved loved this Couples Choice! So moving, emotive, beautiful! They are so good together! It’s such a beautiful pairing. Honestly, whoever pairs some of these people up with the correct type of partners need a raise! The lift! 😮. Stunning. ❤❤

You can clearly see that you are loved so so much ❤ Dianne, your dances are absolutely stunning. You are a very special and beautiful lady and dancer ❤ Helen ✨

[@peterrush5567]

You have got to say how lovely this was and the fact the lads had no prior dance experience is the essence of what the show is about a novice being improved by a pro dancer through the stages of the competition good luck to this couple hope they get to the final

I know this is completely unrelated to their beautiful dance but crediting this masterpiece as Maxwell when we all recognise the genius of Kate Bush is absolutely criminal 😂

[@joelizabeth12]

I remember how much jade loved her sons, right to the very end she showed her whole journey for the purpose of leaving the boys money, it must have been so scary for her knowing she was leaving her babies, i watched that whole journey not realising i was sitting with the exact same cancer, i miss jades beautiful smile, but she will never be dead while bobbys living hes her image, they are two beautiful boys, i think bobby is a fabulous dancer sometimes its not about perfection, its about watching someone dance and it touching your soul ❤
