Daylight Robbery..

Ok so not quite.
Buut ... Things are slow on the blogging front, so Ive been trawling through my youtube favourites and found what has to be my ultimate FAVOURITE ever SCD moment.


Im talking about the genius that was ... Richard Dunwoody and Lilia Kopylova's cha cha cha.
I absolutely 100% can say that it is my ultimate highlight.

The fact that he went so convincingly wrong, yet maintianed a superb showmans smile and the attitude of a true perfomer. You can tell from the routine that both celeb and professional are totally aware of his 'talent' so the dance has been crafted to suit that. I totally admire Lilia for the fact that she still dances like she would with Darren, when with a complete amature ( and lets be honest, shes had enough practice). I personally feel that the routine encapsulates what SCD is about, the fun, the dancing and the sheer hard work that was put into it.


Lilia's routine was simple, but effective. It featured basic steps and showy elements that played to her partners strengths. Well it would have if he had done the proper one!!
As for the dance off .... I spent £7 trying to keep Richard and Lilia in the show so was GUTTED when they got knocked out by Craig Kelly.Not only because I had used nearly a weeks phone credit.... but more importantly my favourite Proffesional had been voted out in week 2! ( to make it worse, Darren closely followed suit!)
Richard I felt gave more to it, you could see that by watching him, and Craigs 'dancing' in the following weeks ... well, in hindsight, was it the right choice!


Regardless ... I still loved it, and them!
