I finally watched the finale but I wasn't that excited about it. But lets finish this thing up!
The reason is that out of the all the amazing girls they had in the top 10, we ended up with my two least favourite in the finale. Last time on
So You Think You Can Dance UK, Bethany Rose and Lee B were eliminated. I felt bad for Lee B as well because he really stepped up his game.
Onto the finale!
Group Jazz
I thought it was OK. Nothing very exciting.

Katie & Matt
Style: Jazz?

The judges liked them. I think they gave Katie a lot of praise. I don't have an opinion on this routine because the lights blinded me from seeing what they were doing.
Kirsty & Luke
Style: Contemporary
Watch on YouTube
All of the judges liked them except for Nigel. He said compared to Katie & Matt's routine last week, which was brilliant, this wasn't. I thought it was... OK. I guess I agree with Nigel.
Kirsty & Matt
Style: Foxtrot

All the judges really liked it. I thought it was pretty.
Katie & Luke
Style: Tango
Watch on YouTube
All the judges liked it except for Nigel. He said they didn't seduce him and the technique was weak. Once again, I have to agree with Nigel. I felt zero passion on the stage.
Luke & Matt
Style: Broadway Tap
Choreographer: Bill Deamer
Watch on YouTube
The judges gave them a standing ovation. So, yes, the liked it. A tap routine for the finale? Matt vs Luke? Seems kind of unfair to me. They did a good job. I liked Matt better than Luke. I thought he had more style but then again, it is his genre.
Kirsty & Katie
Style: Broadway
Choreographer: Karen Bruce
Watch on YouTube
The judges liked it. Arlene said that Katie has the better technique but that Kirsty is the better performer. The routine reminded me of something that might be in an Olympics ceremony. It was good if you like that sort of thing.
Solos

The solos were all pretty average. Katie's was probably my favourite.
Final Thoughts
The whole show was very underwhelming to me but the judges minus Nigel praised it like it was the best thing ever. Anyway, up next, the results! I'm just going to continue it in this blog because I don't really want to create a new blog for it.

Then, it was time for the eliminations...
Coming in 4th place was... Kirsty.
3rd place finisher was... Katie. I just realized how tall Katie is. She's as tall as Cat!
2nd place finisher was... Luke.

Final Finale Thoughts
The season was disappointing for me because so many of my favourites got eliminated early. I'm happy that Matt won. He was my favourite guy and my favourite of the final 4.
