Amy really got the first 10 of 2018 for her jive, then gets the first 40 of 2019 for her jive. What a glow up so deserved

4 years later and I still find myself here for an outstanding jive😁

BREAKING NEWS: CRAIG FOUND HIS TEN PADDLE

If Craig wouldn't have pulled out that dusty 10 he would have heard from my lawyer

If he’s in the dance off again I’m gonna flip 😂

I don’t think I’m ever going to recover from the sheer joy and excellence of this. Haven’t felt this way about a jive since Jay and Aliona

Oh Karim my eyes were filled with tears u danced like no tomorrow

This is why I kinda like that craig only gives 10s to special dances, there's no way you can say that Emma's dance is on the same level as this.

I KNEW this would be the dance when Craig would dust off his 10 paddle and Karim would get a 40. He’s such a precise dancer and I thought that he would really suit the lively dances like the Charleston and Jive. When Blackpool came, I was confident that Karim would astound everyone with his Charleston and he didn’t disappoint! As he didn’t manage to get 40, my attention was on if and when he would be dancing the Jive. I’ve anticipated this dance since I found out when he was doing it, and I just KNEW he would get 40. So proud and happy for Karim. KARIMFORTHEWIN.

haven't felt this way about a jive since the marvellous one performed by jay and aliona, good on you karim!

2 yrs later and this is still my favourite strictly performance

This dance was brilliant. To be honest, I think he outdanced his partner, and I don't know if that's possible. Deserved 40.

I don’t care what people think about his acting of characters etc etc it’s a dancing show. I LIVE FOR THE SCORE OF 40 FOR THIS IM SPEECHLESS. THE FACT THEY ATTACHED THE SCORING TO THIS TOO HELP ME-

Best Jive I've ever seen in my life, I could barely breath watching it! I wish there was something higher than 40!

I am so proud of Karim right now you don’t even know

Omg the screaming during the scores!! 😂 FOURTY ABSOLUTELY COMPLETELY DESERVED! I wasn’t keen at the start of the series, but given his improvement and the elimination of my favourites, Karim has GOT to win!!

The winner should be clear at this point!! The one that deserves it 💘💘

Not only was Karim on fire AGAIN but you can tell that Amy literally lives for a jive!! Absolute perfection and one of the best dances, celeb dancers, and performances in Strictly history. 10!!!!!

You know it's a 10 when Craig takes TIME showing his score.

Wow, Karim is out of this world, he has Energy ,Good looks, a great personality, this is the best dance on stricktly, EVER

This was so fluffing good! Karim has incredible natural talent, what a dancer!🕺🏻💃🏻 I did love how Craig carried on looking at the camera as if trying to pretend that Motsi did not just grab him and plant a great big lipstick- covered kiss on his cheek! 🤣 I love how excited Motsi was! 💕

When Claude said Kevin got emotional that was so cute he’s the sweetest and Karim is just the most amazing dancer and person tbh❤️

Still here in 2021 because this just brings me such joy in hard times.

Karim is one good freakin dancer, setting the dance floor on fire, dance of the night in my opinion.

Goes down in strictly history as one of the best jives ever. Goosebumps every time I watch it! 💕

Definitely one of the best dances on strictly of all time. The timing, the choreo, the energy, the musicality. It had it all

Idc this is the best and most cheerful jive I’ve seen on this show. Karim danced his heart out

Even at the beginning when he's posing for the camera.... AMAZING. If he doesn't win I will be convinced that the British public should not be trusted to vote for anything!!!!!

I still get chills watching this. He's so immensely talented, and Amy's choreography is out of this world.

Karim, from Romania, we love you!!! True to your word, you have danced for all of us! Sheer joy to watch you!

Could not spot him from a professional! Amazing, looks insane leading the backing dancers too!

These two are so likeable, I`ve tipped Karim for the final for weeks, he deserves it, what a talent. 10/10

Love them both! They gotta win! He's so humble don't see why ppl think he's not, he's just emotional after getting good comments x

I'm here again to reiterate how pissed I am he didn't win.

Well deserved 40. Everything he does is outstanding 🙌 One of the Best Jives in strictly history.

You should have won Karim ❤❤❤❤❤

Wishing Amy all the very best.🥰 Karim was brilliant, he looked like a professional.❤

Such an amazing dance- it keeps on building all the way through, and just when you think he must be knackered, he goes and finishes it all off with those spins at the end. I find it more astonishing now than I did then.

I'm SPEECHLESS!!!! that has to be one of the most difficult routine I have ever seen on strictly and Karim managed to score 40, he is such a talented man, wow wow wow!! Hopefully he wins!

Karim so deserves to win!! Absolutely bloody brilliant little dancer,such a genuine guy so appreciative each week of his scores,such a cutie,the best since day 1, We Love You Karim❤❤

Truly the best thing I've seen. He's amazing. I voted 8 times. If he's in the bottom two I'm never watching it again

How can Craig stay so serious with that kind of atmosphere? You can lit feel the vibe without being there 😂

Karim is my favourite contestant. He dances like a pro and he is the reason I watch this series 17 every week on KZfaq .Wanna see him in the final . 👏👏👏

Motsi's emotions are like Darcey's emotions when Craig gives his first 10 in the season.

the most wonderful couple. karim is talented beyond belief. they both deserve the world:)

He deserved to win 💛

I'M GONNA TYPE THIS POST IN ALL CAPS I'M THAT EXCITED ABOUT THIS. WOW THAT WAS EXTRODINARY. LOVE THE SPIN ON ONE LEG WITH THE OTHER LEG IN THE AIR. BRILLIANT TIMING AND FABULOUS SPLIT IN THE AIR. GREAT MUSICALITY AND THE KICKS AND FLICKS WERE JUST SO CRISP, PRECISE AND CLEAN I'M JAW DROPPED. HOW HE STILL HAD THAT ENERGY AND SPEED WAS JUST IMMACULATE. ONE OF THE BEST DANCES IN STRICTLY HISTORY AND DEFINITELY ONE I WILL NEVER FORGET. SPECHELESS JUST DEVINE. JUST FLABBERGASTINGLY TERRIFIC. SO GOOD ARMOGRAPHY AND HE DIDN'T LOOK OUT OF PLACE WITH THE PROS. *10/10* IF ONLY IT COULD BE *11/10*. I WOULD GIVE *100/10* IF I COULD AS GOOD AS ALEXANDRA'S AND JAY'S IF NOT BETTER. 😊😵🤤😘😀

Omg finally they got a ten from Craig I knew they were going to be the first ones to get 40 Love Karim and Amy 💃🕺💙💖

WINNER HERE! always said he's the winner!

He really went for it lol

OMGGG ONE OF THE BEST DANCES EVERRR!!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

Karim and Amy, you're the best of the best! Greetings from Belgium!

Last week he was in the dance off and this week he came back even he got his first 40 of the series thats impressive.

Craig found his 10 paddle ... AT LAST!!!! 🤗 This was so worthy of a 40. So deserved! Well done Karim and Amy 😙😙

Watching Strictly here in 2022, and this is still the best dance I’ve ever seen on Strictly Come Dancing.

Every time I watch it, I tear up. I was literally screaming when he went into those turns at the end. There was no way Craig could get away with not giving that a 10. SO SO GOOD 👏🏼😩

this song means so much to me, me and my grandad used to dance around the living room to it all the time, so so happy Karin got 40 for it! so well deserved

Tear coming out of left eye first when craig score 10. It was splendiferous.

This may be my favourite ever Strictly dance!

Karim my man, your the best thing that has ever happened on Strictly Come Dancing you deserve to be in that final and win 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Karim snapped AND I WAS HERE FOR IT!!!!

Dance of the night. Dance of the season. The first one I’ve seen since Michelle’s (miss you💔) Morticia dance that’s filled me with proper joy. I was grinning for the entire night 💛💛💛💛💛

This was AMAZING totally rooting for him to win the show

Absolute powerhouse of a routine!!! i love Kelvin but im in love with Karim

OMG that is the best dance ever ,I cant belive Craig got over it and did a ten he is my fav GO ON KARIM

I WAS LIGIT SCREAMING THIS DESERVED 40 AND GOT 40!!!!!❤

Karim was absolutely brilliant, his energy level is off the scale

HE SNAPPED!!!😍💆🏻‍♀️

Amy is just bloody gorgeous

The amount of CONTENT in this! THIS is how you (quite literally) bounce back from a dance-off, a high energy routine that suited him completely and the boy didn't miss a single beat! He is definitely the best technical dancer in the competition which is why I enjoy his performances so much every week. The kicks weren't all perfect, towards the end he lost a bit of energy and there were a couple of haphazard ones but tbh to keep going at that rate throughout the entire dance is CRAZY! I wouldn't quite say it was the best jive I've ever seen on the show but it was completely deserving of the first 40 this series!

What is amazing is that he amongst all professional dancers, yet you can't take your eyes off him.

Karim was excellent tonight. I don't care what the haters say about this performance (as if they were dance professionals lol). This was undoubtedly 4 10s. He deserved each and every one of those 10s.

I must have watched this OVER 100 times now - yet it STILL gives me *goosebumps* - because absolutely EVERYTHING about it was PERFECT!! Re-watching ALWAYS makes me grin from ear-to-ear!! Karim really should have WON that year!! 😁😁😁😁

So excited to see Amy back on the dance floor soon💓 this dance was incredible

Well done Karim. Finally a 10 from Craig. You are very light on your feet. And you come across as free spirited and in touch with your feminine side. You are fabulous to watch. Be yourself cos your fabulous. You are a really nice guy. Well done.

That sooooo deserved a 40!!!! It was absolutely BRILLIANT!!! commitment - 100%. Technique - 100%. I literally had goosebumps. Finally, Craig got his dusty TEN paddle out! 10!!!!!

Favorite movie and favorite song ever so this is even better on strictly my favorite TV show ever

I love that dance performance ever, what a showstopper.

Wow just wow. Came her after reading about Amy’s struggles in life. Bless her she is an amazing person. OMG what a dance by both of these very talented people. Had to watch it 3 x times 😂

I've never seen this performance, and i cant bloody tell whos even the dancer. They are amazing!!!!

It can't be possible to out-dance a pro can it?!

Me and my dad saw this whole series together. Every episode. He's gone now. We both rooted for this couple to win.

It was SENSATIONAL! I have shivers down my spine!! His acting of the dance was PERFECT, his sense of rhythm was TO DIE FOR, his technique was of a very , very high level - the sharpness of his kicks, the was he retracted his feet, the fact that he has created an outstanding hip action during the jive chasses (which almost no celebrity even tries to do).... it was probably the BEST JIVE I HAVE EVER, EVER SEEN on strictly\ dancing with the stars (in different countries). His level of technique was MESMERISIG - his leg acting, his hip actions, his body movement, the was he has interpreted the music into movement, the cleanness of all of his lines, his sense of rhythm, the fact that he has incorporated some ballet steps - it was simply STUNNING and BREATHTAKING!! BEST DANCE OF THE SERIES AND BEST JIVE EVER (probably). A 10!!! (my first 10 of the series....)

Karim is incredible

Stricktly are so lucky to have someone like Karim in there, he deserves to win the trophy, that's obvious, he has nothing to prove anymore

The goosebumps were real when watching this! Amazing, amazing and again I say AMAZING!

Well deserved score. That is the best male Jive I've seen in years on any version of Strictly. I mean, I don't often use the phrase "he's as good as the pros," but here, it definitely fits!

So proud of you karim what a talented young man you are ❤

This was too good for me to not watch it again 🤷‍♀️ Amazing 💃💃

I have watched Strictly since it began and this is honestly the best dance ever. Rose to win 2021!!!

I can’t believe that no one has commented on how great the singers and orchestra were!! they were completely spot on, oh and Karim and Amy were great !!!!!!!

In my opinion, this is the best jive I've ever seen on Strictly Come Dancing. It had so much energy and was filled with so much content. It made me want to dance with them. And when they danced it again in the final it was even better. He lost a bit of energy near the end of this one but when he danced this in the final, his fouettes where phenomenal. Even though I believe that Karim didn't have the best technique, (that one has to go to Jay McGuiness in my opinion) I actually preferred this jive over any other because it was so entertaining to watch and brought me so much joy. Motsi even gave Karim her 10 paddle so he must've been doing something right. But that's just my opinion.

My favourite ever strictly moment... never get bored watching this! Karim absolutely aced it!

Its 2020 the finals, and this still remains [and always will] the best dance EVER!

I love that they put their reactions to the scores in the video

I’ve noticed that all the hate he gets usually comes from extremely JEALOUS Kelvin fans, who can’t stand the fact that Karim’s this good!! As much as I love kelvin, Karim deserves a 40!!!!! KARIM AND AMY FOR THE WIN 💕

KARIM AND AMY ARE MY WINNERS

One of my favourites!

In all my years watching this show I don’t think I’ve EVER heard noise like that after a dance. This was ELECTRIC. Karim was a special contestant and Amy did such a fantastic job with him. One of my favourite Strictly partnerships.

They were absolutely the best couple. They deserved to win! Greetings from Belgium!
