But the thing is, I wouldn't want to be the host, I'd want to take part. It was mainly a brainstorming idea that I believe has legs.

And I don't see why we wouldn't be able to choose our own artists, if that's what we all wanted.

I'd offer to host but I want to be a player

Understandable. Maybe we could persuade the lovely Kate to host?

I’d happily host tbf if you lot want to play that role (as much as I’d want to play I need a break from the stress of finding songs haha).

I'd play...

Right then...commiserations Benjamin. I'm sure I scored Ducktales highly lol. Also I was pretty sure you were Kylie for a while. And when it was down. to only one male celeb left with two male forum members still in the running I was then convinced. You've been utterly amazing to reach the semi finals when you're new to the game A massive well done.

So congratulations Jones, Livia, Cherie and Annie. Good luck to you all on the final.

I'll post my own rankings for this round later on.

[Benjamin]

Kylie will be back performing her worst (DuckTales Jive) and best (Hanuman Paso Doble) dances soon. You’ve not seen the last of her!

[Benjamin]

Also to whoever took ribbon dance so I ended up with Tinikilin. That was such a hard dance to match up.

[Alf]

I have an idea.

I will look back at all the past weeks and find your two highest scoring songs that you will be performing again. Along with this I need you all to send me your showdance song, I still don't really know how to describe a showdance, it like a journey sorted of song, or just a big song. If your unsure have a look at all the past showdances on strictly. I won't send you a dance for this. It's basically Showdance. It will be a combination of different dances you have learnt. Hope that makes sense. So send me your showdances and I'll let you know the 2 other routines you will be taking on again.

I'm hoping all the past players from this series will come back to do the final rankings that will determine the winner

So the finalists are gonna be having two of their previous songs.

How about you, Jake, choose one of their previous songs and the last four people to be eliminated (Maru, myself, Kate and Ben) are all assigned to one of the finalists each, and we choose their other song from their previous entries?

Well they have already been sent two dances. However if you four wish to do this. You can choose from their remaining dances, so the finalists will be performing four routines. They will be knackered lol.

I need confirmation from Ben Kate and Maru that they want to do this

[AnnieK]

I've had no idea who anyone is tbh
There's been a couple of times I've wanted to choose a song but thought it would give me away

[Benjamin]

I’ll happily pick my fave dance of theirs (you’ll just need to let us know what the 2 songs were not to pick). I imagine Kate and Maru would be up for this too.

Yeah I had to avoid all Alanis and Ludovico, plus many others.

[jones89]

Yeah i’d be up for you guys doing that, not a fan of my 2 highest ranking songs tbh, be good to have another in the mix

[Benjamin]

Maybe we should give you one of our past dances to perform.

Yes I'm up for it if its not too much trouble for Jake to let us know what songs we can choose from to save having to search the thread.....would that be OK??

No Parm. It can only be the last 4 eliminated. There's only 4 finalists. Nobody is ignoring you.

How I’d rate my own songs. From 9 down I didn’t really want those songs but struggled pairing with the theme.

I preferred when it was random themes like jungle and new beginnings over divas/girlbands, but glad we got a mix of these themes.

Also I struggled with the more Latin style dances.

1. Hanuman (Paso Doble)
2. Voila (Waltz)
3. Let it Snow (Foxtrot)
4. Witchcraft (American Smooth)
5. Shake it Off (Tinikilin)
6. Too Lost in You (Viennese Waltz)
7. Madonna Megamix (megamix)
8. Kiss The Rain (Rumba)
9. A Friend in Me (cha cha)
10. Maneater (Tango)
11. Mi Chico Latino (Salsa)
12. Duck Tales (Jive)

Nah, justice for Duck Tales! And your viennese waltz was Too Lost In You lol

I’d say my faves of yours were the Waltz and the Rumba

Oh so it was too lost in you haha!

You knowing my songs better than me

I’ve been wanting use Voila for ages and finally got my chance and it paired with the theme, so was happy to go out on that.

I think Duck Tales wins most memorable

It was a good choice for the waltz for sure!

And the jive is a hard dance to find a song for. Duck Tales fit perfectly and was 80s. What more do people want??

[Benjamin]

My favourite song paired with the dance was

Alan & Dianne - Secret -- Denmark + Winter (was brilliant. Also never heard this before and this got slapped straight into one of my playlists).

There were others too but it’s late and I can’t recall them now.

I thought using Paloma Faith for the jive was creative too, whoever it was that used that last round.

Literally it fits so well which made me laugh watching jives while having duck tales playing. The humour was lost on everyone though.
