      In Remembrance to...
      Len Goodman the English professional ballroom dancer, dance teacher, and dance competition adjudicator. He appeared as head judge on the UK television programme Strictly Come Dancing, where various celebrities compete for the glitter ball trophy, from its beginning in 2004 until 2016 and on the U.S. television programme Dancing with the Stars from 2005 until 2022.

    The amount of times that I have watched this dance over and over and over again, just goes to show how much I love and respect the show, but have much more respect for the pros and for Len. You could really feel his presence during this performance, and just all the look on the pros faces, you could tell how much they all respected him, and how much love they had for them. But seeing Bruno‘s reaction really broke me. This is without a doubt one of the best performances I have ever seen on the show. Jenna and Val did an amazing, amazing job. Len would be so proud and he is watching from above and waving his 10 paddle. It was like I was lost in time for a minute. Beautiful beautiful.

    I will never not cry when I see this dance. There aren't many words that need to be said. This was the level of perfection, grace, and artistry that Len strived to see in his students. He was a tough yet reasonable man who had a heart of gold. I grew up watching him, Carrie Ann, and Bruno and would always enjoy his blunt sense of humor. He was looking down at this performance with a proud smile on his face.

    This was a wonderful tribute, i just realized that at the end of the dance where the light shining on the empty chair was len's spot, because it was just him, Carrie-ann and bruno before derek came. you can tell that it made Bruno heartbroken, seeing him crying over his friend was devastating, 💔😭they must have been good friends. Same with carrie-ann and Derek, they'd all lost a good judge and a good friend, and it must be hard for them to judge without Len, i must admit, DWTS just isn't the same with him.
    I can tell that he wanted to keep him being sick a secret from the rest so they wouldn't be sad, so saying that he wanted to retire was a good choice, Although Len keeps getting booed at whenever he starts judging, he also brings laughter in the ballroom, no one could ever take his place,
    I thank him for bringing laughter and tough love to the show for 17 years. Carrie-ann, Bruno, and derek was so blessed to had became forever friends with him. Len will always get a 10, he deserves it and much more. Rest easy Len Goodman🕊️💔😭🥀🙏

    I’m going to miss seeing Len on the show:
    He’s the one that inspired me to pick up ballroom dancing as a hobby, which if you look around on UA-cam you’ll find that one of Len’s wishes while being a judge on “Dancing with the Stars” was to encourage people to pick up ballroom dancing.
    I’m so thankful that I was able to be one of the few/many who watched the legendary judge for the majority of the seasons he was on the show, and I’m even more thankful, for Len’s ballroom dancing advice through the tv over the years up until he retired, which helped me become a better ballroom dancer back at home.
    I can’t wait to see what my ballroom dancing hobby has in store in the future and it’s all because of him that I even started the hobby in the first place.
    I’ll be continuing to dance ballroom not only for those who supported me in my life, as well as for myself, but I’ll also be doing it to continue his legacy and dream of, as he put it, “to inspire others to take it up (as well).”

    I was in tears before the dance even started. As the Late Great Len Goodman would say "That's A Ten from me" R.I.P Len Goodman and thank you.

      "No messing about" Is what I think of when celebrities & pros use too much trick/fun elements instead of just getting to dancing.

    I grew up watching DWTS with my mother. Whenever Len would raise that 10 paddle, it was something special.
    That dance was beautiful. Everything was gorgeously done. The light on Len's seat at the end was the perfect way to end the tribute dance.
    Ballroom dancing truly won't be the same without Len.
    Rest in Peace.

    This is gorgeous, this dance alone has brought back so much of the heart that was missing from the show for so long. I loved seeing people who were literally children when Len was judging them to now paying tribute to him. I can say this is single handily the most impressive thing both Val and Jenna put together. It was gorgeous from top to finish and was made all the more special due to all the OG’s being there. This moment will live on forever. ❤️❤️❤️ #Itsatenfromlen

    This broke my heart to watch, it was so beautiful and seeing how upset everyone was, was really moving to see because it showed that he was loved just as much in the States as we loved him here in the UK, my heart hurt so much when I saw Derek, Bruno and Carrie Ann crying, Bruno and Len had such amazing banter on Strictly Come Dancing and Lens words often had him falling out of his seat😂😂😂, this was a beautiful tribute to our Len thank you DWTS❤❤❤

This was the most beautiful tribute to a man who loved ballroom dancing. ♥️🕊️ Miss you Len

    This was absolute tv history made tonight. No show has ever given such a beautiful dedication to our favorites that have left us and always too soon.
    I’ve watched every season and it’s the one show that was a true family show. The love that the judges had for each other, the respect they had for the dancers and the kindness showed to the celebrities can’t be matched by any other show.
    Len was the best, and that twinkle in his eyes when he smiled, or gave that..”From Len A 10!”
    Thank you to all of the dancers that performed this absolutely stunning performance.
    I’ve watched it at least 20 times and not once have I done it without tears. God Bless you all & God Bless Len’s Family.
    A true gem that will be forever missed! 🎩

    Clean, classic, pure, unadulterated ballroom dancing. There is no other way to tribute the late Len Goodman. Growing up as a kid watching DWTS I always saw him as the mean judge. Soon enough I realized his toughness came from his wanting to see people improve, and his love for ballroom dancing. One of the true legends. May he rest easy.
    And hats off to Jenna and Val for the beautiful choreography for this tribute.
