Sunday Service: Week 11
Semi-final time. So much pressure. So much on the line. Everything to dance for.
It was such a shame that the last lift didn’t come off for John & Johannes, because their salsa was looking great otherwise. As always, they were perfect side-by-side. The fist lift was fantastic and very challenging with Johannes’ height meaning he has very long levers. John looked relaxed, Johannes was giving us everything. I wouldn’t like to see them in the dance-off, but it would be lovely to see what that lift should have looked like.
What an Argentine tango from Rhys & Nancy! Fantastic intensity, Rhys lead Nancy throughout, and looked poised and in control. His timing was spot-on. The lifts were complex and well executed. Easily Rhys’ best dance, and what a time to bring it out of the bag.
A lovely American smooth from Rose & Giovanni. It was relaxed and confident. Rose has such poise. Lovely footwork, Rose released her toes on the backward steps. The last lift was daring, and it’s so nice to see lifts we’ve never seen before even after all these years. I watched the dance with a smile on my face.
Dan & Nadiya’s tango was fine, but forgettable. His top line was a bit off, too far forward with the left hand perhaps. Even skippy in places. It just wasn’t up to the standard of Rhys and Rose.
I can't believe that AJ & Kai’s salsa went the same way as John & Johannes’. That last lift didn’t come off. It was all looking so good otherwise. So fierce and fun. All the other lifts were great. I really enjoyed the rest of their routine. I'm dying to see AJ finally get a 10 from Craig, but it just wasn't to be.

Based on the dances, you'd have to put John and AJ in the dance-off because they both had such disastrous endings to their routines. But I enjoyed what both of them did throughout the rest of their dances than Dan's routine.
It's so tense, and I am really not looking forward to the results show tonight. It could so easily be the end of the road for one of my favourites.
