Faye & Giovanni Charleston to 'The Lonely Goatherd' from The Sound of Music - BBC Strictly 2018

[@upendasana7857]

This has got to be one of the best most technically accomlished dances ever on strictly...that year in general was just full of th most spectacular dances and Faye was amazing !!!!

[@lesleycooper7544]

Why isn’t FAYE. MAKING A THING ABOUT GIO. GREAT PAIR. 👍👏

[@marycheevers1966]

Bring back Giovanni and we will watch Strictly again.

[@geoffprocter5051]

Will go down as one of the all time strictly best dances!

[@TheQ-Continuum]

I watched this live. For me this was the dance of the series ! They should have won Strictly by a mile:

[@tinamcintyre6797]

The Q-Continuum totally agree it’s become who’s most liked Not who’s best dancers

[@jpbdude4223]

Tina Mcintyre weren’t joe and dianne more liked that Stacy and Kev.. mostly.

[@jn2263]

Tina Mcintyre I think the final decision should be from the judges

[@naimaboukhouf7357]

Tessa one of the best Charleston They are so funny,theirs faces especially Gio Didn't expect from Faye to be funny as that despite She is good

[@paigemabel7373]

Love how no one is complimenting the singers on this! But as soon as they find something difficult everyone is complaining! I love the live singers! They are incredible and their job is extremely hard as they often have to make songs suitable for the dances they are assigned and more often than not it’s not a simple fit to the dance

[@chrisardern4594]

Paige Mabel you may find that it was not the singers behind the screens that sang this. It may have been a recording as it would have been very difficult to get the timing correct for the dancers. But the goats still get the 10 from me.

[@eclectica1]

Chris Ardern And how exactly do you know this? Unless you have solid proof, please stop posting speculative rubbish.

[@chrisardern4594]

@@eclectica1 it was only a comment and my opinion normally when the singers do a difficult piece Tess normally gives them some praise but on that song she didn't. Oh and don't tell people what they can or cannot post we are not in Russia

[@courtneyraven3652]

Ok but not good enough ok Stacey and Kevin to win

[@jamesdraper884]

Somewhat late here, but that is definitely Hayley, one of the live singers, singing lead vocal

[@hortondlfn1994]

I have lost count of the number of times I have come back to watch this. Both dancers are absolutely delightful, and the vocalist is amazing!

[@shrekinthebackrooms96]

omg yes! i watch this so many times!

Me too funny,great teamwork,great technical,you can see how they enjoying ❤❤❤😂😂😂

[@jakeboybongocongo]

Me too , i keep coming back again and again to watch this superb performance. Just superb.

[@suesmith1085]

One of the best routines ever

[@orlandy101]

Side note: whoever sang this absolutely smashed it 😂. Such a hard song to sing.

[@andrewcrisp9391]

Totally agree. There are times that you sit and wonder 'who picked this song?', but there are times when everything comes together, this is one, Kevin clifton and susanna reid dancing to 'you light up my life' and others.

[@tassawariqbal3694]

I think it's the Walmart kid

[@zleoc9349]

Its actually a combination of the lonely goatheard, from the sound of music and gwen stefani wind it up... No one sung it, its just both songs put together

[@orlandy101]

zLeoC yes the composition is both songs, but strictly have a live band and this is sung live.

[@zleoc9349]

orlandy101 well bit weird since it sounds exactly like the original, and they dont use the live band every single time sometimes (rarely) but sometimes they do use the original song

[@scifigeezer5271]

Is it weird that I watch this once a month as an antidepressant?

[@0111-d6y]

Nope, I'm here too!

[@missChristina2209]

NOPE!

[@WeeGrahamsaccount]

A brilliant dance and the singer was marvellous. Faye and Giovanni got 40 and the singer should have got a Gold medal. Excellent.

[@dotcreations-sandravanzyl2115]

This is most definitely my "go to" video when I have a bad day. The music, the brilliant routine and the JOY with which they perform, puts a smile on your face. Best antidepressant ever! Love, LOVE, lovvvveeeeeeee it.

[@naimaboukhouf]

😂gio face always crack me

[@henryriley4958]

How they didn’t win their series I will never get over it..but then again it is Strictly, the best dancer never wins sadly but still one of the best routines ever 🌟

[@naimaboukhouf]

Yeap they should win 😮

Gobsmacked by how clever this routine was. I actually thought Faye danced it better than Giovanni. Deserved an 11!

I thought it would just be me who thought that. The whole thing was full of joy.

Best Charleston ever on Strictly! Well done Faye in executing such an amazing dance!

[@iNeedaDoctor21]

Wouldn't go that far...

[@keanusolan2844]

This was an excellent Charleston, probably one of the bests. But, I will still place the one by Oti Mabuse and Danny Mac above this one.

[@naimaboukhouf7357]

%10000000 the best funny Charleston

[@maritta2504]

Oh my gosh! I absolutely loved it! Though the costumes are quite hideous, it oddly fitted perfectly. Gonna watch this over and over again. Especially the beginning when they were literal puppets on strings. And omg. Those two Goats in the background. Dying! 🤣

Absolutely fantastic!!! So in sync with each other, so cleanly danced whilst still retaining that spontaneous-looking Charleston spirit. And Gio looks adorable 😊

[@shrekinthebackrooms96]

can we talk about how she’s dancing in heels?! they ROCKED it, the singing was PERFECT and their facial expressions were too good!

The whole choreography was unbelievably fantastic!! Seamless lifts, great synchronization, mesmerizing footwork. A 10 !!!

[@kevinrestall4467]

Faye Tozer is incredible. I think its difficult to tell who is the pro and who is the celeb. I think Faye was better than Giovanni to be honest with the greatest of respect to him. Amazing choreography and danced to perfection. Very clever to use puppets and how they both stayed in character throughout was amazing. Why she didn't win i will never know. She is a legend. And total respect to the band and the singers. Smashed it. One of my favourite strictly performances of all time xxx

[@melodyvalentine8779]

I don't even watch Strictly but I can't stop coming back every day to watch this since finding it a few days ago. I only found it coz it came up in the search results for the original scene from The Sound of Music. This is brilliant and out of all the (albeit few) dances I've seen on this show this is easily the best. I'm not even biased coz they used a song from my favourite film (and Gwen Stefani who I love is thrown in too) but the song was a perfect fit for the dance. I wanna know who's idea it was to be puppets dancing the Charleston to The Lonely Goatherd and Gwen Stefani's "wind it uurrp" bit coz they're a genius for that random mix of madness that works so well.

[@Emma-rx5qf]

I honestly don't think any dance will top this, everything about it is brilliant.
