It’s nice to see Nancy getting to be centre stage a bit more this year!

We ask for more Johannes in heels and they give it to us year on year 👠

No routine is complete without Johannes in heels and we love it thank you strictly never change

The INCREDIBLE Johannes strutting his stuff like only he can, and Nancy on fire. Excellent job.

Ok but this routine is GIVINGGGGG!!!!! Love seeing Nancy getting more centre stage too, always thought she was an insane dancer!

Omfg I swear watching the UK is even moreeeeeee insane than the US dancing with the stars stage design and skits. I’m Falling in love . Y’all are fabulous ❤️

Also the Gorka X Karen duet was so fun!!!

I didn't know where to leave this comment because it's about the whole show rather than the individuals so I thought here might be best. I live in the wilds of Ireland with no TV, my dog and a herd of goats, plus various other furry/feathered friends and I love it - but still can't do without my sparkly Strictly fix! Personally, I think the show has taken on a new lease of life since Bill won in Series 18, which I think is because he just embraced the whole thing with a love of what he was learning and gave a lot of people the confidence to dance just for the sheer joy of it. I think this has been enhanced by the diversity reflected in the last series, as well as this new one, and feel that this is better because the same-sex couples are not necessarily people who are LGBTQ+ relationships off the dance floor. I know it's ultimately a competition (although I would be quite happy if everyone just danced and nobody won or got eliminated) but I think the message that you can dance for the love of it, with whoever you want to, comes through loud and clear. Of course, that's not to take away from the hard work that everyone is putting in. Another thing I am enjoying about the more recent series is the effort to showcase different styles of choreography and dance in the pros 'big number', like this one, which I think was an area in which the UK show actually did lag behind Dancing with the Stars a bit. I also love the Couples Choice and was delighted to see contemporary, jazz and street styles brought into the mix. I know some people don't like it and I've seen comments elsewhere saying that it's a 'free pass' to the next round for the less accomplished dancers. I disagree - these are demanding and complex dance genres - but, even if this has been the case on a few occasions, I would give three examples as to why the Couples Choice has enriched the show - Faye & Giovanni's Halloween jazz routine, Bill & Oti's street/commercial routine and, of course, Rose & Giovanni's amazing contemporary routine last year. Anyway, I'm waffling, but just have to say that I'm still utterly smitten with Diane, Giovanni and Karen in choreography terms but I'm loving Nancy's style as well. And as for Carlos - phew, what a way to start your Strictly tenure! I'm also delighted that Graziano has a got a main role this series again. My favourite? Just now I've got a real soft spot for Hamza but I loved Jayde & Karen's tango and Tyler and Diane's jive this week (ditto Will and Nancy last week). And as for Molly and Carlos in that quickstep! I love it all and Johannes is, as always, the fabulous cherry on top of the wonderful cake.

carlos is so captivating

Johannes is absolutely incredible ❤

Another great job from all the professionals 💜 I honestly can't remember Strictly without Johannes...He is a force of nature and a gift to us all! I love, love, love him 🌈💕💕💕💓

Nancy, Nadiya, Johannes and Luba were killing it! (Loving that eye make-up too!)

I'm obsessed, I can barely deal with this, my little bisexual brain is short-circuiting right now

Love the pros so much! They are all so talented and unique in their own ways but make magic when they all come together!

That opening with Nancy and the dancers giving me Madonna's 'Human Nature' vibes

Oh Johannes you are spectacular ❤️

Johannes is a star that deserves to shine always

Anyone else get nail hair hips heels MV in the opening

Well damn!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏

Does anyone see Amy in this group dance? I can't find her.

Karen totally rocking a suit as ever

We need more gio aand luba

BBC runs on state subsidiaries and STILL executes a better dance show every week than dwts which now runs on Disney budget! Money really can't buy skill. Stateside should watch this version and actually learn choreography, camerawork, lights, costume etc and emulate it cuz this looks like an elegant show and that looks like an overblown theme park ride.

Where is the audience

I miss Oti!!

:)

Wait who's the blonde girl

WHERE WAS AMY!?

About time inxs was used

Can we just watch the pros

What's the song 2.15

The elbow length vet gloves are torally distracting lol

It was very strange with those red gloves !

This is frightening the horses..

This has got to be the GAYEST routine I have ever seen... and I am here for it! 🌈💛

Interesting.

Why do the guys look like they’re about to wash up? 😆

A little too risque for my tastes. But the production level is top shelf.

I mean, of course it's great. But that was a pretty strange/weird choreography, esspecially for the Pros first result show dance.

Why is there screaming & applause when there’s obviously nobody in the audience?
