    Watch the BBC first on iPlayer 👉 bbc.in/iPlayer-Home 9-year-old Fionn performs contemporary choreography to Take That’s Rule The World.
    It’s week 2 of the dance talent show where dancers of any age and dance style compete to win £50,000 and a chance to perform on Strictly Come Dancing.
    Leading the charge to discover the greatest dancer are three superstar dance captains - platinum-selling singer Cheryl, Broadway and Glee star Matthew Morrison and Strictly Come Dancing professional Oti Mabuse.
    The series is hosted by singer and presenter Alesha Dixon and Jordan Banjo, member of multi-award-winning dance troupe Diversity.
    The audience hold the power - if they are impressed by the audition, they can vote to open the mirror, and if 75 per cent of the audience vote yes then the mirror will open and the dancer will make it through to the next stage of the competition, the callbacks. Get ready to see talent from across the world of dance, from ballet to jazz, street to ballroom, contemporary to disco as the dancers give the performances of their lives in the hope of opening the mirror.

  • @agustaaggas9281

    I can see some people in the comments critiquing his dancing, and then lots of people telling them to “give him a break” or “he’s only 9”
    Frankly, as a dancer, critiquing is a really good thing at any age, because it will allow you to push yourself to be the best you can be, rather than taking the patronising “you’re doing great sweetie” and settling for ok

    • @Atinychoice
      @Atinychoice 5 років тому +5

      I agree I posted a comment saying he was great and pointed out both good and bad critiques and have got nothing but hate, people need to learn every dancer knows getting critiques is good as people want them to do better and to constantly improve. Xx

    • @PlatypusRising55
      @PlatypusRising55 5 років тому +2

      I'm sure he gets plenty of constructive critiques from his actual dance teachers. No one asked folks in the comments to give performers instructions. It has nothing to do with helping him it's just random strangers in the comment taking the opportunity to be critical of someone doing something they can't.

    • @Atinychoice
      @Atinychoice 5 років тому +4

      Platypus Rising no we’re honest and say what we see. He’s not gonna read these comments bu5 maybe someone who can’t afford dance might and don’t you think it’s nice to help our fellow dancers out. I’m not gonna comment saying how great he was cos what’s the point, we can clearly see that! I would rather not lie and comment something useful

    This young talented dancer, entered Ireland Got Talent (Louis Walsh was one of the Judges) and the young man mentioned being bullied because he loved to dance. In that show he danced to the song Never Enough from The Greatest Showman. It brought a few tears to my eyes. So did this dance.
    It is a shame that he is picked on by his peers, but you can tell he has a determination that will allow him to achieve his goal. He is the Billy Elliot of Ireland!!!
