Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev - Waltz


I still wish Kara would keep her head up during spins, she always looks off balance, and this is a very shaky start, there doesn't appear to be any confidence there.  She keeps dropping her head.

As Emma puts it, there's just something not quite right there, she injured her arm in the Show Dance and Emma can see she's just throwing the arm out rather than placing it.  The look on Artem's face at the end suggests things were not quite to plan and Kara was obviously dancing through the pain.

I didn't enjoy the performance like I thought I would, and actually think I can only give it an 8.

Craig: 9 "An occasional wobble...missing most, if not all of your heel leads...spot the floor [during turns] which is a no-no"
Len: 9 "Such musicality when you dance...truly lovely to watch...few foot things"
Alisha: 10 "Constantly pushing yourself...so relaxed and at ease watching you dance"
Bruno: 10 "It's quality, quality of movement...a pleasure to watch."

Total Score: 38

A bit too high if you ask me.
