I am not surprised - it's a nice routine that they have and other than the obvious big hitters - J & T, Kyle & Sarah, Michael & Jen - I don't see why they shouldn't be competitive. The biggest problem with a lot of the classic routines I have seen (albeit that's quite a limited number on DVD) is the leader seeming very self conscious and appearing to step through the routine rather than dance it if that makes sense. It makes the partnership look unbalanced. Clearly Paul & Cat don't have this problem.

Well done to everyone that placed.

No we haven`t zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

anyway my take on things,

BbB was another awesome event, reminded me in lots of ways to Swing Diego, without boring people to tears with a full review i`ll just do highlights and low lights etc

Highs

Paul and Cat coming 5th from 11 couples in Classic, bearing in mind that the first 4 couples are pretty much untouchable at the moment, so to win the fight for 5th place against established american couples with your 1st effort on american soil especially after their Weston blip was an outstanding performance, to see them get a standing ovation but amazing.

Seeing Jordan and Tatiana perform to the very highest standard again is truly breathtaking, seeing it on youtube really does no justice to their performances.

Paul and Cat`s 2nd and 3rd places respectively in advanced! All stars beckons for them both....

Lee Easton (Advanced) and Syd (Intermediate) getting to the finals of JnJ at their first attempt in their respective divisions

Special mention for Amy Muncaster who won Novice JnJ and now cannot ever dance novice again due to gaining more than 20 points and a win, Amy is always buzzing, always positive and always encouraging to everyone, she truly deserves her success.

Steve Hall for coming 2nd in Novice JnJ, Great performance.

The consistently high performances from the UK in general (Susan B,MikeyR,PeterF,Manal, but to name a few) Everyone played their part.

4 nights of dancing makes for a special event also!

Lows

Not many lows really, quite a few people commented that the music wasn`t the best we`ve heard but can`t think of anyting that was out of place,

Would highly recommend it to anyone thinking of going next year....anyway where is my bed!

FF

apologies if i have forgotten anyone
