Our Pros perform an Icarus routine for Halloween ✨ BBC Strictly 2022

[@ronfarkas]

Some of y'all just expect the Halloween pro number to be Monster Mash every year and it shows. If you're too slow, it's not Strictly's fault, this should win awards!

Was very messy

This was incredible

Beautiful Icarus routine. Nikita is perfect in the role.

[@cheyennegentry438]

I loved this! It was visually so stunning. It's a shame people don't know the story of Icarus, and actually how haunting the themes/ story of Icarus actually are. I found it perfect for Halloween.

[@katlynwebb8474]

Icarus's tale is a perfect example of punishment for hubris

[@goldenwitherphoenix1389]

Beautiful. A lovely take on the icarus concept with the sun acting as a siren luring icarus (Nikita) in.

[@ribena607]

Thanks for the explanation! Concept was completely lost on me this time lol

[@goldenwitherphoenix1389]

@@ribena607 no problem!

[@totally247]

Hauntingly beautiful. Probably my favourite pro dance of recent!

[@RobertoRevAng]

Probably one of their best settings! Congrats on the production team!

[@overlappingsounds2468]

Every performance is art. That’s what I love about the SCD pros

[@melanieshirkey5276]

The pros did a amazing dance! Really beautiful !

Really gorgeous

Utterly captivating!

mesmerizing

[@queensofdrag]

Absolutely amazing.

[@abs_kuzmin_2010]

Just stunning

[@kateoconnor9280]

Beautiful performance, may have been better on another week theme wise. The only scary bit was waiting see if Nikita’s wings were going to melt and he’d plummet back to Earth with a bang and land on Dave Arch!

[@annettealex1]

amazing

woaw ...what a rutine ..sooooo good

Did u find the promise of spooky Halloween dancing from previous shows is absent from this season. Lovely dancing by the professionals though. But where's scary?

[@tg4941]

@@sergioroman2920 that's not Halloween surely. It's Greek myth.

[@goldenwitherphoenix1389]

I think it's more metaphorical horror in the mind control, manipulation and decite. One falling for the dark, controlling power of light rather than the obvious monster in the shadows. A different type of scary if you will.

[@heartlocket91]

It doesn’t have to be scary. It’s haunting and beautiful. A siren’s call to death..

[@bluefirewolf1991]

yea

[@bluefirewolf1991]

@@heartlocket91 ok but how is a BEE related to HALLOWEEN?

[@lambomatt2]

What song is this

[@amyemmaniu]

“Come Fly With Me” by Ruelle

[@AnnaAvig-j7c]

who sings this song? anybody know ?

[@hananarnold]

Not my favourite pro Halloween routine, BUT I did like it. It didn’t make sense the storyline to me. Also why is Nikita an angel at the end. STUNNING!!!!! Overall well done pros! HAPPY Halloween 🎃

[@louisemcd2937]

it was based on icarus

[@hananarnold]

@@louisemcd2937 thanks. It was a good dance don’t get me wrong but I didn’t understand it as many people so yea……. I haven’t seen the show.

[@EthanBell-h5x]

I didn’t hate the fact that this didn’t have much to do with Halloween, I hated the dramatic rendition of Come Fly With Me. Otherwise, quite decent group number.

[@disaidra]

Feel like this could have been "saved" with some gothic costuming. It's a perfectly good routine but honestly wouldn't have seemed out of place any other week

[@rowanc88]

Nothing to do with Halloween though. Medusa, yes. Icarus, no.

[@bessieburnet9816]

Oh, lighten up.

[@jamesdean258]

This should be done outside, in the rain and Nikita should lose the coat! ❤ 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
