I remember Craig giving their dogs dinner of a showdance an 8 and he was fuming. Kevin clearly got so carried away with the whole concept of that dance and it just didn't work at all
I have a theory that since then, the producers have made sure they have a bit more control over what happens with the showdances to make sure they're all as 'WOW' as possible - all the pros seem to now work with outside choreographers for them rather than being left to their own devices
I agree since the showdances have massively improved. I just went and watched it back and I'm shocked how awful it was in comparison to their CC.
I never watched a lot of that season... Which I'm now regretting as this moment sounds hysterical
The whole series is on Britbox. That whole series had a really negative vibe with Vick Hope being ungracious towards Graziano, Katie Piper being clearly uncomfortable with it all, the tension between Danny JJ and Amy, the publics reaction towards Ashley, Seann and Katya and then Kevin's spring coiling tighter every week. Ever since I have found the pairings to be so much better.
