    Layton was no more used to the quickstep than Ellie was to the American Smooth - both were inexperienced, yet Layton is criticised and Ellie is praised to the hilt. Just sums up how this season has been, but luckily Layton has a will of iron and gave Nikita the ultimate partnering challenge.

    Just watched their performance of this from earlier in the season and then the final version again, and must say that Layton's partnering skills have improved massively. Yes, of course he had some of his prodigious dance skills from the get go of this season, but he has also worked his ass off and learned a bunch of ballroom partnering that he didn't have back then too, and that stuff isn't easy. Nikita and Layton both did amazing work.

    Well if that's not a message to anyone who said he couldn't do Ballroom then what is! That was incredible, flawless and perfection. Electrifying travel across the floor, so many more details and great expression, it was more controlled and Layton's topline is unrecognisable now particularly the frame, it was even more synchronised and stronger than the first time and yet it was still amazing back then, this shows his progress across the whole series and once again I was looking forward to seeing it and I was certainly not disappointed, once again probably one of the best Quickstep's in strictly history 😍

    • @dajtoad1
      @dajtoad1 Před 5 měsíci +4

      Yes, definitely a 10. It looks like Layton has learned how to let Nikita lead him (or at least, to some degree - it's something he would continue to work on if he did any more ballroom dancing). But he's not trying to charge ahead of Nikita.

      Why the panel? Don’t they usually have expertise all styles of dance to be able to judge? I mean everyone knows he came in a very skilled professional dancer, I’ve seen him in various shows in the west end myself, but if the particular style you say he’s only been introduced to/improved on in 13 weeks, I would have thought he’d need a bit more experience, before judging what toe, body placement, posture etc. he’s looking for. Saying that, with practice purely in all fields he’s not 100% familiar with over the next year, he could easily come back as one of the pro’s.

He made people know that its okay to be yourself because there are people that will love you and celebrate you for being different. He won in my eyes - he had the highest score at the end of the day. The pathetic British public werent ready for someone like him but he excited me every week with his routines. What a star!!

    BBC seem to have to break their own rules?
    The judges flip flop no consistency, Layton should have been eliminated when he was in the dance off only Shirley went with her conviction ~ the dance off alone! Not the series or best dancer! Craig is all over the place, says 1 thing ~ brilliant,
    Perfect, then gives a 8 or reluctantly a 9 keeping all about him. 🙁. Time for a change! Bobby was brilliant in the final! Amazing, brilliant emotional he is so genuine

      Let's change the record, shall we? He didn't win, so you can rejoice. Clearly the producers, the pros and the other celebs were happy to have Layton competing, because they knew what he could do, but they also saw what he could not do when he started, and what he can do now. I remember Torvill and Dean getting just as much carping when they revolutionised ice dance, and it took judges and audiences some years to catch up and progress. This is much the same situation. The irony will be that when the sweet and talented Ellie is forgotten, the two 'losers,' Layton and Bobby, will be striding forward with their careers. Karma.

      did you even TRY think of any logic while typing this? i hope you realise there are more than just 1 style of dance. being a pro in one style doesn’t mean you know immediately how to do another. its like a brain surgeon trying to do heart surgery. the professional dancers on the show have been trained in ballroom and latin as young as 2 years old, and have been doing it every dance for the rest of their lives since then. Layton did jazz, tap and ballet which aren’t styles done on Strictly. he’s not qualified enough to be a pro. before Billy Eliot, he had no ballet experience- he made it up in the audition.
