Group Dance: Musicals Bonanza - Strictly Come Dancing 2016: Week 11

[@Elnont]

This is why Strictly has held onto Anton for so long, the man’s an all round performer.

[@mrspock172]

Anton is the best strictly has, not only is he one of the best pro dancers but he is pure SHOW BIZ and a fabulous all rounder. Strictly come dancing are lucky that he hasn’t moved into bigger things with his talent.

[@lillyrose1787]

Anton is my favourite, an all rounder and just loves everything he does.

[@nutmeg4549]

Tess and Claude' are looking gorgeous, Bruno's falling on the floor, and Darcy's flirting with the chorus, Craig is brandishing a four, and Len is pickling his walnuts xD

[@belindakgriffin8193]

wow i cant remember that bit

[@ntscho_tschi1009]

@@belindakgriffin8193 it's the first fast bit after the long shot following Anton

[@facetwit99]

hold the phone since when could Anton sing so well? he's really good :)

[@legaleagle46]

Anton is a man of many talents. I think that's why the show has held onto him for so long, even though he's well past the age when pros like him would have been put out to pasture.

[@m.savage678]

Michaella Braid I know I was surprised as well when he first sang with Craig Revel Horwood on it takes two

[@m.savage678]

Michaella Braid also...nice profile pic

[@charmainpearce515]

He performed with Bruce a few years back. Look it up. They sang me and my shadow

[@legaleagle46]

Charmain Pearce I thought Len did that with someone else.

[@samni9068]

I always cheer Anton on, every performance. He is always smiling.

[@legaleagle46]

And people wonder why I still love Anton. He can do it all: sing, dance, present, and even headline his own musical number. He really should have taken over for Bruce when Bruce retired; Claudia and Tess really just don't fill the void anywhere nearly as well. I really hope Anton replaces Len as head judge next year. As it is, I envy you people in the UK who get to see him and Erin on their own tour after Christmas (I understand it's already sold out in numerous venues!).

[@madperson876]

I've seen him and Erin four times now and I've bought tickets for a fifth time. He and Erin sing and dance on all the tours! I am slightly concerned that they'll start thinking that me and my sister are stalking them - especially as we stand by the stage door for autographs and photos every year. But oh well! xD

[@justmyself3980]

He is The King of the Ballroom!

[@Stuggy001]

I know I've come back to this 4 years later, but its still a brilliant bit of showmanship as it was the night I saw it on TV. I even got a bit of a vibe of the late great Bruce Forsyth in there... This is what Strictly is about. :)

[@sophielamm]

i just love anton so much

[@annagravess]

WELL DONE ANTON GREAT SINGING

[@mrspock172]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Anton’s vibrato!

[@esraayousef5643]

Superb. Way better than Blackpool Opener this year. Anton what a fantastic show man. LOVED IT

[@gigi19981]

Favourite strictly performance ever!!!

[@meaddison8]

Pure joy! Anton you are a star!

[@katea127]

Well done to Anton

[@rachelrees9809]

Absolutely LOVED this!!! Musicals week is my favourite!! Reminded me of James Corden's opening at the Tony Awards!!! xx

[@joannegallagher2792]

Omg I've missed this show I know they did what they could last year but watching all the best of strictly and the way it should be makes me miss it more and the escapism and the happiness I feel when I watch the fab dancer's they take my troubles away

[@emilypinching1731]

omg it made me so happy to see them doing the Lambeth Walk!!!

[@GarnetSeren]

Can Anton introduce every week like this?

[@m.savage678]

Garnet Seren yes that would be amazing 💞

[@madperson876]

Yes yes yes yes!!!!! Please let him introduce every week like this!!!!

[@smusaful]

Logistical brilliance.

[@graceevans6239]

Love anton this eoin time was so special breathtaking 💖

[@louiseodonoghue7816]

omg i loved this dance

[@EmmaGriffiths]

loved this, don't know how Craig can criticise dancing after his bit though!

[@babblegabblegamer5842]

ANTON 😊😊😊

[@m.savage678]

As much as I love and adore Anton, I just don't want him to replace len as head judge because I would miss him dancing and I love watching Anton dance 💕

[@jenniferlouise5600]

Still one of my favourite strictly performances

[@baconlass123]

2:21, chills

[@madperson876]

I bet he was absolutely exhausted when he finished that performance!

[@m.savage678]

Well done Anton, amazing 🎤🏆👯‍♂️💃🏻

[@ianhorsburgh9867]

they got the dance floor cleaned in less than 10 seconds!

[@ph1l1patc]

Dee Horsburgh They pre record the opening dance number before the show goes live, the actual live part is when Tess and Claudia come down the stairs.

[@timsamanthony]

Anton needs to do this every year

[@tairevonkrolock3511]

Love all the references in this and it as amazing dance! Special mention for the intro of les mis before we saw the flag😹😺

[@nikkimurphy5265]

Brilliant you should’ve put this one on your DVD Anton

[@abigailwaters1818]

Anton RULES

[@MickJaggerLoveChild]

Ok he is not the best singer but he is so MR SHOWBIZ that he pulled it off!!!!!! ANTON BETTER BE THE ONE REPLACING LEN!!!!!

[@madperson876]

But who'll take part in the pro dancing? :O

[@faiththompsson]

Gotta love anton

[@queenc8034]

does anyone else agree that when Len leaves Anton should take over

[@izzyhart6450]

More more more more more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Seaottters]

I’m shook at Kevin’s costume change... Woah

[@izzyhart6450]

Awesome 💖💖

[@RM-rc1tf]

Len's replacement seems to have been confirmed.

[@babblegabblegamer5842]

R M here here

[@esmayfairbairn8063]

R M who is it?

[@laurennemeiksas1163]

R M not

[@itsmylife9421]

GO ANTON

[@giuseppea.6225]

👏👌

[@spottydog7143]

And to think there was such controvosy about Strictly never doing same sex couples. Aton and Craig were beautiful XD

[@babs5968]

Craig & Anton dancing together - was that the first same sex dance?

[@lynseymalone9615]

Really really want anton to be back on strictly come dancing this year and to win it this time, those rumours are not true that he's leaving🤨🤨🤨🤨

[@GaryWalshDublin]

I'm guessing we are seeing Lens replacement then. A bit obvious.

[@lauravision2791]

How on earth did Joanne change from a pink lady to Belle in under a minute?! Was it not filmed live?...

[@Embarazzing]

Laura Dixon alot of the group dances are prerecorded :)

[@strictlycomedancing_fans1796]

The ones for movie week halloween Musicals and blackpool on the saturday are live

[@skavenschemer15]

who are the children?

[@scarletteloise2737]

Melody Song children who star in different musicals I think (e.g. Billy Eliot Matilda Annie) :))

[@skavenschemer15]

Scarlett Eloise ah I see... thanks 😀

[@milliedavis4031]

They were Billy Elliott, annie, young Michael Jackson matilda, and cosett and eponine from les miss

[@AnneMcCrossan]

It was great entertainment. Anton is good at that but I don't think he should be a judge.

[@yeahiagree1070]

Terrible. Especially compared to the fantastic West Side Story routine.

[@chipdruids1754]

I thought it was great...

[@stephenhearne4467]

U cant criticise it

[@brianeduardo1234]

It is a pity to use Anton to sing... because he can't do it....

[@madperson876]

Yeah he can! xD He's releasing an album soon and I'm buying it!!! :D

[@mrspock172]

He’s a very good singer, a certain type perhaps and very professional. None of that over the top voice crap we get on the radio nowday.
