Fancy A Jive Like The Strictly Come Dancing Stars
Strictly Come Dancing is finally over for yet another series.
Right from the start the series had a spot of drama when Alesha Dixon replaced Arlene Phillips on the judging panel - hot gossip indeed - if you will pardon the pun. In my opinion, I can’t say that Alesha was any better or any worse then Arlene. Saying that though, if the current news stories are to be believed, it could well be that Arlene is on her way back for the next series.
Poor old Brucie was off sick for just one show when he caught the dreaded flu. The little man that is Ronnie Corbett was Brucie’s replacement for the night. Now being a meagre 5ft 2” myself I’m all in favour of short people, but really can you honestly say that Ronnie looked right next to the very tall and lean Tess Daly.
As per usual some of the celebrities were useless and looked like they had never had a chance to learn to dance. Others looked like they had been dancing for many years.
One of my favourite parts of the show is when all the celebrities perform together for the dancing groups extravaganza – brilliant.
I can’t even recall which celebrity actually won the series, but I can remember just a few of the stars. I really wanted Natalie Cassidy to win the overall competition. She just opitimised everything I think is important for dancing, mainly being the fact that she absolutely loved every second of it and always had a smile on her face.
I’ve heard that some of the dance professionals now host dancing holidays. Brilliant, you get to stay at a hotel surrounded by like minded people all wanting to learn how to dance. This sounds fantastic and it would be great to be able to learn a few new moves so when we go out on our next office do, I can put my new dance skills into practice. All I can say is they had better watch out for me at work, as I might just be the female version of the great John Travolta!!
