I used to walk through the NS room to get to the jazz funk all day’r and still remember the energy of the dancers and the music. From what I’ve seen the final woman and the female with short red hair are the only ones ( in my opinion) who danced WITH the music and appeared to have their moves inspired by the music - not just doing backflips cause they are athletic.
I couldn't even dance properly in those boots i had to wear as i had blisters on my feet from night b4 ... im over 60 and never did i expect to get a lanyard top 24 at over 60 in boots i couldn't dance in so haha how did tbat happen anyway .. i dont care i just love to get lost in the music dance if no 1 is watching ❀◕ ‿ ◕❀ DANCE WITH YOUR HEART AND YOUR FEET WILL FOLLOW ❀◕ ‿ ◕❀
Just totally embarrassing Derby and Joan club. Everything we ran away from when we first went to all-nighters. Parody and very sad to see. Kev is a total bootlegger when it comes to dancing. Doesn't even dance himself.
For those looking for 'as it was in the day', well it's simply different now ... opinion as to if it's as good now, or even is close is open to personal views, for me no it's most certainly not, but that doesn't mean that these later generation dancers should not be allowed to put their own flavour to the sounds .. not brill though is it ?
It's supposed to be northern soul but unfortunately it's nothing like it was in its day, the girl should be on strictly not in a final of a Northern Soul dancing comp, better female N/S dancers out at your local events. Unfortunately it's now a farce and should done away with.
They should have asked some of Wigans past winners to judge like Winston Omeally... Only person to win it twice, and his brother Simeon (RIP) also won, so did Vernon Price, Sandy Holt.
It''s the Blackpool Northern Soul Dance Competition. Nothing to do with the World 🤣😂 Its a ridiculous figment of Kev's ego and narcissism to call it that.

PMSL, a professional photographer cannot even get the video quality of Ralph Malph's Huawei P50 camera phone, the best man won great dancing, but still a piss poor show, Real shame Connor from Congleton didn't enter.
Who was the MC? His constant incessant drivel, talking nearly ruined this for me. He needs a crash course in organizing a competitoon and just getting on with things
It's was all embarrassing frankly but if they enjoyed it I guess that's all that counts....some were clearly taking it all way too seriously ( The Winner ) and wasn't even all that. Hey ho....is what it is.
There’s an old man in the front dressed in a black jacket and blue jeans. He’s not dancing Northern Soul he’s just dancing from one leg to the other as they do normally these days. Perhaps he’s just lonely and wants to dance to this type of music. I’ve said this before I think northern soul dancers look lonely, they dance in their own little world not interacting with others. They could be alone in a room doing this on their own. I do like to watch them though.
The Lad in the white t shirt and Black Bags rite at the front of the clip has my full vote from the start, Wish him all the very best, 💯👌✊
Absolutely love it all fantastic ❤

Super dance solo many people with poland dance solo in Niederland many year's
Jack from Edinburgh was brilliant. Loved watching his moves and liked his look.
Bird in black belongs on strictly
Shocking, it reminds me of David Brent's The Office dance.
THE GIRL FROM OXFORD IN MY OPPINION !!

To say how long Kev has been in the game he does talk some boll@@s
Ballroom Breakdancing
Whens bingo start ??

This is a load of bullshit.
Northern soul was never about dance competitions .
This is a insult to what Northern Soul stood for.

Nowhere near as good but ya gotta love the passion
I spent my life at all nighters and all dayers in the 70's and I NEVER saw such bad dancing EVER in any club. I'm keeping the true faith
What kind of dancing is this? Not being rude just genuinely interested,everyone seems to be dancing the same.
Where everyone is dancing the same nobody is dancing at all !
NORTHERN SOUL. UNDERGROUND SCENE .UK

@@deanodog3667 that's the dance tutorials for you. Everyone dancing the same🤣
The judges are "dance experts" says Kev....come on...farsical
They should have asked some of Wigans past winners to judge like Winston Omeally... Only person to win it twice, and his brother Simeon (RIP) also won, so did Vernon Price, Sandy Holt.
and not forgetting the Outstanding KEB DARGE that i am sure would of got the place ramming with soul,. 💯👌✊@@kimsutherland977
I picked Jack as winner from the outset

Oxford won for me !!!!!

Luther Ingram If it's all the same to you. There's an instrumental version as well which I prefer!
Exus Trek is the instrumental by the Luther Ingram Orchestra 👌
@@mariaud999 thank u so much
Blackpool has a lot of fancy steppers......
Strictly for the birds😂
I prefer a dancer than a gymnast

Cashin in.... aka Kev Roberts
Coudnt agree more, he was hopeless
It's was all embarrassing frankly but if they enjoyed it I guess that's all that counts....some were clearly taking it all way too seriously ( The Winner ) and wasn't even all that. Hey ho....is what it is.
Bunch of Grandads believing they can still dance.
Why are they in fancy dress, is it a party ?
They all dance the same or similar. Same old, same old.
If it is good it is good!

It’s many years since I danced Northern Soul…but the whole point was YOUR response to the music…so you didn’t need a partner …& it …was…great!
The little guy dress in all black properly the best one the others rubbish
Never have i seen such annoying dancing 😮
All trying to dance the same but still stand out,load of crap.
Awful MC spoilt it
My God thats terrible rubbish lol.
Haha so cringe 😂
