Recap


I don't Lizzie did very well this week. I thought the judges were very nice with their comments regarding her performance. I thought Drew was good in the Disco; It suited him.

I agree with what Nigel said about Mandy & Mark in their routine. I don't think Mark was very good at all. If you don't judge the dancing, then it's not really a dance, it's a theatre piece.

I thought the wall for the Hip-Hop routine with Hayley & Alastair made the routine feel a bit weird at the beginning. I felt a bit disconnected from what the dancers were doing and they also lost synchronization in a few parts. The one part where the did the arm ripple thing was kind of cool, though. They both danced it well enough except for the synchronization parts I mentioned.

The girls' and guys' group routines were kind of meh.

I give Tommy full marks for effort in the Salsa but Yanet had the better Salsa vibe, not surprisingly. I really liked Tommy's solo as well.

Now, for what will no doubt be the controversial routine of the night, the cancer routine with Charlie & Robbie. The reason that it's controversial (for some SYTYCD fans), for those who don't know, is because it's the exact same routine from season 5 of the US version, performed by Melissa & Ade. I'm not going to compare the two versions because they are different dancers. I thought Charlie & Robbie performed the routine very well. And despite the fact that it's a rehash routine, I do think it's worthy of being called the routine of the night.

For the solos, my favourites were Tommy and Lizzie's. Despite again disliking Charlie's solo, she's becoming a favourite of mine based on her partner routines.

* Just as a side note. I want to mention that the YouTube channel SYTYCDfanUK is not us nor is the person affiliated with us but we thank the person for their uploads.

The UK version of the cancer piece by that young couple though they did a great job is nothing more than a copyat of last summer's legendary cancer piece that was performed by Melissa and Ade and nothing can top the original. Sorrybut the original is the better one cause it was real.
