I go to watch a lot of 'real' flamenco and I like all sorts of interpretations of the paso, although a well-performed 'traditional' one is always a joy.
I say it every week, what incredible choreography from Michelle. What a dance I absolutely adored it, I could happily watch this over and over and would never get bored. My first 10/10
I have been waiting for Jamie and Michelle to do a dance like this and they more than delivered! This was one of my favourite paso doble's and Jamie danced it incredibly! ❤❤
This guy should go all the way to The Final! I couldn't tell the difference between him & the Professional dancer - we (at home) applauded at the end of this dance! Fabulous, well done Jamie!
This is one of the iconic Strictly dances people will look back on in future years. Absolutely perfect music for the dance which makes a huge difference to the normal over the top theatrics and overly loud music that usually accompanies the Paso's on Strictly. No need for pyro's or flashy lighting. Two people dancing brilliantly to great music is all that's required
@@MatthewBurke-hn9ch OMG yes completely forgot about Carlos and Nancy love them too! Same I Am going to the Newport show in south wales! Can’t wait! They are so amazing and light up so many people lives and Saturday nights! Love them! ♥️
Score - *10* THIS WAS IT! I love the Paso so much and very rarely are there any good ones anymore but this was a statement, as soon as Jamie started with that shape I knew he was gonna eat this, there was so many impressive parts to this, the command and presence it takes to deliver that sequence from 1:35 to 1:44 as a non pro is so difficult and he made it look so easy, same at 1:16 so hard to do and it looked so easy. This is Jamie's BREAKTHROUGH no question 🙌🏻
This dance needs strength, and I got GOOSEBUMPS at how strong Jamie looks throughout this whole number! And the shaping; this is a GOOD DANCE! **edit to add Michelle’s choreo is *chef’s kids*
I´ve watched this 3 times and I still can´t get over how brilliant it was. The shaping was off the charts! Loved the couples choice having caribbean heritage myself but this dance was the dance of the night for me!
That dance brought tears to my eyes and made me very emotional. I played it to my partner this morning and said of course I won't cry! I cried again... Absolutely beautiful 🫶
Jamie is such a nice person and real and he is amazing Dancer I Loved it hope everyone will vote for Jamie every Saturday night wish Jamie all the best in strictly 🤞 greetings from Holland ❤
This might be my favorite paso i have ever seen on strictly...i loved his intensity and his shaping and the drama and passion of the dance...he looks like he has put absolutely everything he has into this and it shows, he really wants to do well and i always love that enthusiasm and willingness to do well....LOVE LOVE LOVE JAMIE!!!!!!
Incredible choreography!! I absolutely freaking loved it! I saw the lines the aggression. Oh just mwah for me! Fabulous! The music is really perfect as well! If I ever did this show (I wouldn’t😂) I would love to dance that! Very happy this got 10s. Well deserved!
Authentic costuming, music and attitude and you're halfway there. I was so relieved with how he kept in character and maintained correct shaping and use of arms throughout the routine. The routine was clever in its simplicity to allow Jamie to dial in on the technique. In a second performance of this routine, I would love to see a stronger lead and more fluidity.
Amazing! They said on it takes two that he barely had any rehearsal time because he was busy at eastenders, so I wasn’t expecting it to be this good! 👏🏻
They were also predicted to get a score of 37 if they stay on the course, and seemed a bit doubtful when Michelle realised it would mean three nines and a ten. I'm sure they were never expecting three tens and a nine instead! Well deserved too.
Caught them on ITT during the week, they were worried they’d had less time for practice due to filming schedules. Not sure it could have been any better if they’d had another week to practice to be honest. Loved it
Yes!!! Love it! Love the absolute proper, traditional Spanish Matador Paso! Very Strictly Ballroom! Love it! Reminds me of Tom Fletcher's Paso with Amy, which did get a 10! So Jamie desevrves it! So glad Jamie is finally getting the recognition he deserves! I get they were holding him to a higher standard given the Christmas Special. Shame about no 40, but I guess if Tasha didn't get 40 last week, makes sense.
Loved it when he slid his hands under her armpits making the arms look like horns. Think maybe a lot of people missed that. Never seen that done before.
I absolutely loved this dance! I love when they do proper traditional pasos, and this choreo was gorgeous. Michelle is such a great pro! I was annoyed that they didnt pick them up on the illegal lift at the end though. They used to be so much stricter about the lift rule, and in the last couple years, theyve started ignoring them and tbh it feels unfair, especially when they penalised Pete for his illegal lift. Either penalise all illegal lifts, or none of them!
Paso is usually my least favourite dance to watch but this was amazing. Made me realise I was just watching the wrong pasos before. Stunning choreography, music was perfect and the dancing was phenomenal.
Love it when they dance to the traditional music!
Me too 👍🏽🤩
same here
and wear traditional clothing
Agree 100% just fantastic 👌

Incredible body shaping. He has tension in the body in absolutely the best sense of the word.
I say it every week, what incredible choreography from Michelle. What a dance I absolutely adored it, I could happily watch this over and over and would never get bored. My first 10/10
What appropriate music and costumes can do - loved it, very exciting !
💯! Some of the paso musical choices are ridiculous. This was fantastic and gave Jamie and Michelle the chance to shine ❤️
Yeah traditional Paso music 🎶 so fair play 👏.
Showing versatility, great synchronicity and a flamboyant performance. Hopefully Jamie and Michelle can dance some more weeks.
I have been waiting for Jamie and Michelle to do a dance like this and they more than delivered! This was one of my favourite paso doble's and Jamie danced it incredibly! ❤❤
Right music is everything.
This guy should go all the way to The Final! I couldn't tell the difference between him & the Professional dancer - we (at home) applauded at the end of this dance! Fabulous, well done Jamie!
Yeah, dance of the season so far. The music is exhilarating!
A Strictly star is born. Jamie Bothwick is a legend

The best male celeb passo I've ever seen in the history of the show if not the best celeb paso of all time. Really nailed it.

Michelle is a Queen! her choreography skills are really off the charts, more or less on same level as Oti

Fantastic, this going down in strictly history
Amazing
In a week where a lot of the music choices were awful, this showed how much traditional music can energise a performance!
WOW!!
Can’t believe that they got 3 10s and 1 9 from the judges
Fantastic
Loved it when he slid his hands under her armpits making the arms look like horns. Think maybe a lot of people missed that. Never seen that done before.
Wow, I love it❤
