Strictly Come Dancing live: Blackpool week sees Sarah Hadland wow with powerful Couple’s Choice
Only eight couples remain in the BBC dance competition
Strictly Come Dancing‘s eight remaining couples headed to the legendary Blackpool Tower ballroom for week nine of the series.
The show is usually held in the Elstree Studios in Hertfordshire. But for one week each year, the show moves up north to the Tower Ballroom in Blackpool – an iconic and historical dancing venue.
The episode featured a number of impressive routines with Sarah Hadland performing a powerful Couple’s Choice and Tasha Ghouri taking on the Paso Doble. Both dances received totals of 39 from the judges and the two stars are sharing the top spot on the leaderboard.
While he didn’t score too well, Pete Wicks certainly delivered a dose of entertainment with his “I’m Too Sexy” Cha Cha. Another star who struggled was Wynne Evans, who performed a Charleston with his partner Katya Jones.
Blackpool Week followed last Sunday’s elimination of X Factor star Shayne Ward and his partner Nancy Xu, who faced singer Wynne Evans and pro partner Katya Jones in the dance-off.
Jamie’s scores are in...
He’s received three 8s and a 9, for a total of 33.
“I thought this was just a really fantastic way to end the show,” Motsi had told him.
“Another exciting and entertaining performance,” Shirley said.
Craig added: “I loved, loved, loved watching you, and how jubilant you were throughout the dance.”
