You know, I've seen the Quickstep done to this song many times, but this is the first time that I've seen proof that it would work equally well for the Charleston, thanks to the wonderful Charleston segments that Kellie pulled off so well. Brava!

AMAZING!!! By far the best dance of the night! That footwork was insane & Kellie looked gorgeous! ❤️

Amazing! Kellie and Kevin were magnificent! Her footwork is remarkable! The best dance of the night! I really hope she makes the final - she is easily the best dancer! Kellie needs to win! :)

Gosh they have some hunks at Blackpool... Kellie is such a joy to watch! Casting knocked it out of the park this season, nearly all the women they got have been so endearing (probably why it took 6 weeks to eliminate the first woman). Kellie, Katie, Jamelia, Anita, Georgia, Helen - all have been very humble and have been wonderful on the floor. For this dance specifically - Kellie really got into it and I for one was happy to watch her! She did great, Kevin is one lucky guy this year!

Wonderful, Kellie! The difference between this and the already quite good routine from Jamelia, is that she kept her body contact with Kevin when they were in ballroom hold and despite them covering the floor with this dance, she never lost her upper body posture. Love those Charleston bits in the middle and that Kevin just kept those backing dancers literally at his back when doing those Charleston bits! LOL. Pasha did the same keeping the backing dancers at bay when he was doing the Charleston with Caroline Flack last year! BUT, was that a cheeky lift in the end? They were not allowed a lift for this dance actually. That aside, if the judges are in a forgiving mood, then a ten. Otherwise, it is a nine (if they pick on the lift)...

This was fantastic. I personally don't have a problem with the illegal lift as it was at the end of the dance and it didn't look out of place. It's not like he lifted her mid dance bc that would have looked odd 😀 well deserved 10

Still totally baffled why Kelly didn't win the popular vote...

Love this dance! How controlled, elegant and paired the two were, just incredible! Minor nitpicks though, for me there was a bit too much messing around at the start and also technically you're not allowed lifts (both of which are Kellies fault though) but apart from that, gorgeous!

I'm sure one of the backing dancers is Neil from the year

Can anyone tell me the names of the backup dancers?
