I know we like to complain, but the Strictly Dancer-Picking Elf has done absolutely sterling work 2021/22, and should be recognised for their achievements. They've pulled in:
  • Kai, a charming, down-to-earth bloke who hit the ground running and played the will-they-won't they showmance to perfection
  • Nikita, who is what the producers always wanted AJ to be: a cheeky, quick-witted younger pro who can most certainly speak more than two sentences without giving you the impression that someone is feeding him all his lines through an earpiece (sorry AJ, but you were a robot)
  • Jowita, again, incredibly well-versed on how to play the game and is adorable whilst also giving one the impression she would bite the nose off a judge if they dared harm her precious partner, be that Hamza or Adrian. (It's a good look for her, I do like a bitey professional dancer. )
  • Carlos, who has had a slightly difficult run with poor Molly, but clearly is an excellent dancer and whom I would very much like to see more of, I think there are depths as-yet untapped in him, perhaps a same-sex partnership would bring it out. (That rumba with Nikita was fire.)
  • Vito: warmly, sweetly eccentric, not afraid to play the fool at all, and has just been an absolute joy to watch on social media with Fleur and the other pros, who all clearly love him
I can't make a judgement on Lauren or Michelle yet, hopefully next year they will be partnered (maybe give Cameron a shot too?)

What I would say is that the male professional lineup is incredibly strong at present, but the female side really needs looked at. Karen is surely thinking about other things after 10 years, they need to either give Luba a partner or move her over to choreographing officially, and Amy looked done in this year. Not sure if she was a wee bit unwell or other things going on, but that pairing with James just didn't work on any level. And Dianne might need to pull up her socks too, Tyler should have been a nailed-on semi-finalist based on how well he danced the first few weeks.
