Mark Ramprekash's Argentine tango was something else..absolutely amazing

[@lisashakesby]

Sorry but as a Strictly fan I have to point out that the "All serious judge" is not Bruno the all serious judge is and always has been Craig.

[@matthewthomas9235]

3:51 Erm, have you guys every heard ‘Crazy In Love’? because the clip you are using is clearly to ‘Holding Out For A Hero’ and the dance you are showing is her showdance. Also, more subjectively Darren’s foxtrot was crap.

[@ErmacFellwalker]

I'm glad it wasn't just me that wondered what the hell was happening with that dance/music. I was starting to wonder if it was a song mash up initially

[@edwardharriss1463]

I think they couldn't find the footage which is a bit ridiculous because it's still on there.

Absolutely they were brilliant…

I'd just have showed EVERY one of Danny Macs performances...they were completely perfect...still can't believe he didn't win...though we all know why.

[@idesireit31]

Why??

[@CocoBlushXX]

They wanted a black contestant to win as lots of racist allegations came out the previous year all the black contestants were getting voted out first.

[@TheKWEbb23]

He messed up in the final, sadly

[@teacherkate1]

Ore’s American Smooth and Jive should have made the list. He and Joanne were a fantastic partnership and had such individual style that people responded to. Danny was my favourite for sure but sometimes the Hollywood glamour of something like Ore’s American Smooth wins on Final night

[@BookwormBelle1191]

His quickstep let him down sadly

Incredible to see how strictly has changed since 2004, we can only imagine which it might be like in 2042

[@Kelly2k1]

Rose and Giovanni will always be my favourite couple on strictly they had chemistry still watch their dancers on YT now.

[@niiaz9347]

Me too,they will always be my favourites!

[@naimaboukhouf7357]

Yeap impossible to beat them

[@BeakersAreCool]

Their Couples Choice certainly had an impact but their best dance for me was their Argentine Tango

[@CandleLight1974]

A win for show. Q: How was it any different to any other dance with a disabled contestant? A: The other disabled contestants didn't make a feature of their disability for attention and a cheap win.

2014 jake wood and janette manrara salsa was great too

[@keithgriffiths9864]

Totally agree about Natalie and Artems showdance. Everyone seems to have forgotten them.

[@shell150675]

Tom & Camilla's showdance will always be my favourite dance. It was sublime.

[@denizehalfpenny1263]

Loads of great dances but you’ve missed one of THE unexpected greats - Kelvin Fletcher. As Gaston he was sublime, his samba with ziti was exceptional and o stall a very worthy winner. Also missing - a few Argentine tangos and Anita Rani’s Paso Doble. Just so many ….

[@faegibb4043]

The jive from karim is that standout from that year

[@orlyb1310]

Nobody ever mentions Anita's Paso. I've rewatched it so many times lol. It's definitely my second favourite performance of that series after Jay's jive. And I'd place Kelvin's showdance or samba above Karim's jive but it was still very good.

[@Char-sf4cg]

2019 should be Kelvin and Oti’s Showdance and 2021 should be AJ and Kai’s Charleston

[@tomoz5052]

2012 should have been Denise van Outen’s Charleston 2013 should have been Sophie Ellis Bexter’s Charleston (which remains one of the all time iconic Strictly dances)

[@orlyb1310]

Sophie's charleston was excellent

[@carolinefrench7820]

Gorka and Helens cabaret performance, absolutely brilliant.

Completely random but I am obsessed with the way the narrator says Gorka and Giovanni’s names.

Strictly Come Dancing is the best tv format in the world!

[@tommyc23101986]

Aleshia Dixon was not crazy in love it was ‘I need a hero’

[@jo-annbarrett6042]

The standard of dancing has increased year on year. I don't think some of the winners in the early years, like Gough would win now.

[@mcannon1974]

Maybe, but the show is not remotely as good now. Too many z listers, props and themes are killing the show. Interesting watching these old clips to see the amount of dances with appropriate music and dress styles, rather than daft costumes and, as Len used to say, a lot of faffing about.

[@frankieb43]

His ballroom looked very good I wouldn't be so sure. Mark Ramprakash would definitely still win. I've not seen such a great salsa from a male celeb right up until the lovely Hamza this series all these years later. Mark's Argentine was amazing as well.

[@paulinedickinson6475]

Because a good few of them have had dance experience before, liked kelvin Fletcher Because he had none

[@yolandasamuels3213]

And the song was Holding Out For A Hero by Bonnie Tyler, not Crazy In Love.

I was just gonna say this. Surely a paso show dance?? Defo not their cha cha and not the right song either???

No Kelvin Fletcher, he danced like a pro from day one.

Veo q no tuvieron en cuenta el baile de OJ and Kai. Sing, sing. Sing. Eso fue deslumbrante! El vestuario, la belleza de la pareja y la precisión de ellos dos!! Fueron dos profesionales!! Cómo se divirtieron. Y traspasaron la pantalla. Desde Bs As, Argentina 🇦🇷

[@marksaunders7976]

The judge's take's the judging system seriously (or so it has been known), come off it. Apparently, judge Craig Revel Horwood cost Faye Tozer a point because she adjusted her sunglasses during the routine of "Fever" (check 15:23) but check out Bill Bailey's placing his sunglasses on upside down at the end the performance of "Rappers Delight" (19:43) Revel Horwood didn't cost him a point for that. Is this because of favouritism? Even the timing was out.

[@peterwilliamskelhorn6675]

@marksaunders7976. Craig has always been picky about things like that or thumbs sticking out

[@sandyward5344]

What about Kelvin Fletcher? Two 10's in wk 2 then went on to win! He should def have been in there

[@adamstanley7614]

Two 10s were in Week 3. But I agree his samba should have been here.

[@paulinedickinson6475]

Must admit my all time favourite was Karen Hardy and Mark Rampracash..

[@robinsmith5442]

I'm afraid since I'm American I haven't heard of a lot of these people. I like Tom Chambers since he was on Father Brown and I really like Bill Bailey so I was glad to see him included.

[@keithgriffiths9864]

Take a look at Natalie Gumede and Artem

Mark and Karen 2007....... that was not their best dance. Their best dance was definately The Argentine Tango which they danced to "Golden Eye "

[@GhMccall]

Ty for making me smile 😃

[@Bruce-yv9tm]

Debbie and giovanni’s Argentine tango belongs as the best dance of that year (2017 I think it was). Otherwise the list is really good.

[@hayleydouglas]

2008 should have been either Austin Healey & Erin Boag's Jive or Paso Doble, and I would have chosen Joe McFadden & Katya Jones' Samba as another option for 2017, and I would have chosen Matt Baker's Samba for 2010

[@dianegarciaprieto2118]

As an ex dancer, it was incredibly impressive to see her improve week after week, irregardless of what was going on in her personal life, which as I previously stated, I wasn’t remotely interested in.
