    In my humble opinion, Jay is the best male contestant ever. His dancing ability is not up for question. However, it’s his partnering skills that make him stand out above all others. And he was just so sweet! 🥰

    Much like when I saw his Jive, it's a case of knowing you're watching something special. This was truly brilliant.
    The romance, the story and the beauty of it actually take you away from what was a technically demanding dance, that was made to look absolutely effortless by Jay. Aliona is a marvelous teacher as well.

      +IUPLOADALLSORTS Next weekend he has the Viennese Waltz and the Charleston. I Personally think he's going to nail the VW, as I recall that beautifully choreographed and elegantly danced Waltz he did back in week 2. Not normally a big fan of slow dances, but that Waltz was something else, have re-watched many times. Unforgettable. Not too sure about the Charleston, he might surprise me. But even when Jay isn't at his very best, it's still always an absolute pleasure to watch him dance. He was my winner from the very start.

      I am still pondering about that...not sure if she wants to make a declaration of her love to Jay public or just kill us with curiosity...all the songs she chose can somewhat be interpreted that way...no doubt she has some sort of feelings for Jay...you can love 2 persons in your life...it is the only couple where there is tangible chemistry...she never looked this way with previous dance partners and was not even married...the chemistry is even more powerful than between Georgia and Giovanni...Aliona could barely talk after the dance...

      @atalantasawdon4983 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I am shocked that there are rumours about the two of them, Ive consistently (until this week) thought that the two really lacked any chemistry, whether it be love or sex. I thought this was either because Jay had never been in love so just disnt know how to convey those emotions, or because the two had too proffesional a relationship that lacked the warmth that, for example, Georgia and Giovanni or Kellie and Kevin excel at.

    • @scattygirl1
      @scattygirl1 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +Atalanta Sawdon Being unable to convey romantic chemistry has nothing to do with "never having been in love"; the vast majority of celebrities on the show have been in some kind of relationship and most of them have been unable to convey chemistry. Same as singing. It's got nothing to do with someone's personal history- you've either got the knack or you haven't- otherwise my parents would be fabulously charismatic dancers. And they're not.

  • @NicholalouiseR
    @NicholalouiseR 8 ปีที่แล้ว +58

    Agreed with Darcey's comment that it brought a tear to the eye, because it was just so romantic and you can see how hard Jay is trying, and he's succeeding every week! Jay and Aliona were just so graceful and intense together in this performance, and their previous ones, and Craig is just nitpicking at things now because he knows full well Jay's at a professional level with very little mistakes! There's no way he "might" be there next week, he WILL be there next week

    @Dancerama6 8 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Jay in a flannel shirt + blue jeans = instant 10!
    really, I think Jay should win it all. I'm going to be so mad if he doesn't. Because remember, no pro has ever won Strictly a 2nd time. In keeping with that streak, I feel Jay may be doomed to 2nd place, just because he's with Aliona. I am REALLY hoping he can break the curse. And Aliona, honestly, is a person very deserving of the 2-time champion title. Jay has shown he is leaps and bounds above the rest of the competition. Especially with how quickly he became the last man standing. He's just been something remarkable to watch and I'm happy for that.

  • @scdobserver835
    @scdobserver835 8 ปีที่แล้ว +123

    Yup, really romantic. One of the best rumbas done this series and one of the best male celeb rumbas done in the entire 13 series of SCD too. Very fluid, musical, and with loads of basic rumba steps, with that figure-eight hip rotation done really well, not just at the hip section, but right up to his arms and tips of his fingers. A solid nine or 9.5, and possibly a ten or two from the judges I am sure...

    • @liesiezie

      @scdobserver835 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      +liesiezie Well done them! This is possibly the highest scored male celeb rumba (barring Xmas Special by Matt Di Angelo) in the whole of SCD history! So Jay finally peaked, and what a time to peak too! The reason I score him up to a 9.5 and just short of a 10 is only because I don't like that move when he balanced on one leg, that bit at 1:11 he should create more tension with Aliona, thus creating a more dynamic line for that sort of move, but it looked almost like he was doing a dog wee. But otherwise the rest of it I am mightily impressed...

    • @dajtoad1
      @dajtoad1 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      +Scd Observer That's what I liked about it - it was so natural. That hip movement did not look forced because he was using his whole body to create the shape, not just trying to stick his hips out and hoping that would count as rotation. He really understands movement. And it was very masculine too. Clever Aliona - no 'sexiness' to put him out of his comfort zone, but lots of 'love'. Well deserved top of the leaderboard last night.

    I also thought this was the best dance of the night and felt so emotional watching this. he has to be in the final. I don't know if anybody agrees but I think it's harder in some ways for a man to win because he leads the lady and also is a major part in pulling off the lifts. I think it's going to be a tough final this year as everyone is so good.

      +Lauren Blakemore Isn't it just so frustrating? Is it just pure ignorance on the part of the producers? It's not as though they don't have time to plan this out in advance - the camera angles are rehearsed. So why put the most gorgeous move in the routine on a high angle lens so it can barely be seen?

      I KNOW! it annoys me so much and this should've been 40 aswell!

      +Lauren Blakemore I thought it was a perfect view! I want to see the sliding doors (with an embellished spin Jay did) in forwards and backwards that's so typical of a rumba, and I for one am GLAD the producers chose a high vantage point to showcase Jay's ability to dance like that.

    it's such a strange coincidence for me personally that they danced to this song. the whole week before they did, without any knowledge that they were going to dance to this, I had fallen back in love with 'falling slowly' again and had been listening to it repeatedly because I love the song and the film so much. to then see my favourite couple dance to the song I had had in my head all week was really bizarre but also kind of magical. their dance definitely incapsulated the song and it's meaning and I'm so glad that it was jay who performed to it. first he dances a pulp fiction inspired dance and then dances to 'falling slowly' from once, the man has amazing taste.

    I don't think some people understand the weight of human emotions when they critique performance value for some people are much more reserved in showing their emotions so when they show even a little of their feelings it means more than it would coming from someone more expressive and energetic Jay to me seems like a reserved and held back kind of guy and I think the judges have also noticed this

    (This is Mike's wife commenting he would not want you to think he was interested in Strictly). I don't mind Tess as a presenter but I wish she would not talk during the judge's session. The atmosphere after this rumba was electric, the audience went into an almost stunned silence but it was killed by Tess's inconsequential chat and giggling. She treated Jay like a 5 year old, talking about how cute he was and when she asked if we could see "that cheeky smile again" I cringed with embarrassment, he's a 25 year old man for goodness sake. His band mates were in the audience, can you imagine the stick he would get about his "cheeky smile". let's hope that in future Tess announces the judges by name and leaves the talking to them.

      @katht7430 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Mike Benn - Mike's wife, I absolutely agree, I was cringing for him too. As you say, he's 25 not 5 and she completely ruined the atmosphere after that beautiful emotional dance by her silly prattling. She is talking too much after the dances and should just shut up and let the judges speak.

  • @jona1575

    I really loved the storytelling of this dance. I thought he had really nice musicality and fluidity in his arms, his footwork was pretty neat and precise although a heel lead in rumba is a big no-no. However, I think it needed more hip action and I think he lost balance slightly or made a mistake at 1:12. Usually for that move to work the male has to really support the female and the female should be able to lean away from the male but in this move it just looked like Aliona went into the position and spun back on her own without much help from Jay. I personally would give this a solid 9. Certainly one of the best male rumbas on Strictly that I've seen.
