Strictly Week 8 - An Emotional Journey

Strictly Week 8 - An Emotional Journey

By Kevin Clifton

Strictly Come Dancing reached its eighth week, and it certainly was an emotional rollercoaster. From the tension of the dance-off and the thrills of the routines and some controversial scoring, to a show-stopping tribute dance to Remembrance Sunday that many are already earmarking as the highlight of the season, Strictly Week 8 took us on an emotional ride, one that's sure to live on in the memory.

As ever, join Kevin, Joanne and the community as they take a tour through this powerhouse of an episode.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The tribute dance from Rose has proved to many that dance as an art form can be used to communicate directly with the emotions of an audience. It was a masterclass in storytelling. There seems to be some controversy about the scoring, and many are calling for clarification as the scores seem to be based upon differing criteria. Many see this as unfair. When we as professionals pour everything into attaining perfection, it can provide an extra level of stress when things do not live up to expectations.
