Chelsee Healey and Pasha Kovalev - Paso Doble - Strictly Come Dancing 2011

[MrBrendan47]

As much as as I liked Chelsee, Holly's paso doble was better...end of...

[cuando1979]

as a spanish born her characterisation was brilliant well done!

[ElectrikkPaperClipxx]

pasha is fine as fuck

[Loopypink]

@ElectrikkPaperClipxx Couldn't have put it better myself!

[peprilen]

I can't explain my joy at "Ten" from Craig

[peprilen]

just AMAZING

[BRaffertyable]

Why did she keep hold of the fan all the way through?

[ernestelilley]

Why all the screaming from the audience. I used to be fan. Not anymore. Seven! Give it a rest Len. Have a day off.

[MahsaKh22]

Chelsee believe me you are winneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer <3

[zestu82]

This dance alone should've got her the glitterball. Really sad she didn't win.

[MrWatchorn]

I love the way pasha always gives Chelsee a little solo at the beginning

[timjregan19]

Great routine. I love this paso, and I was really backing Chelsee all the way. If you want to see any of my videos, please check out my channel

[MissFunkyShannon]

Best Paso ever on strictly.

[pmus1]

who gives a flying fuck who wins it......as long as they make shit loads of money out of it,,,,,,wot a load of bollocks it is.

[eclectica1]

I just loved the audience anticipation just before Craig raised his 10 paddle. I could just imagine the scale of the booing had he scored a 9.

[clarealanatno3]

Wow, this dance just blows me away and I cannot stop watching it! Pasha has done a fantastic job with Chelsee and she is really blossoming into a tremendous dancer. The final is going to be the best ever and I'm really so excited to be seeing it soon.

Good luck Chelsee and Pasha - I'll be voting for you!

[chrizbogz]

Wow! Harry is so admirable. He's so genuinely happy for Chelsea. You won't everyday see a person like that cheering for another contender.

[lisaanne821]

Hope it's a Chelsee and Harry final two, and whoever wins between them is a worthy winner.

[12345678910111213955]

wow what a dance

[timjregan19]

Chelsee to win. It is so hard to work a regular day job and train to dance at the same time, and she has done a tremendous job. And hats off to Pasha, fantastic choreographer

[salsaphil21360]

Beautiful really really beautiful. Got to be the best dance of the series. Compares easily with Jill Halfpenney doing the jive. She should win this if her nerves hold out at the Tower. Good luck Pasha and Chelsee.

[RichardCypher2100]

Hands down the best dance of the series!

[jewlzandstephen]

Pasha Doble - amazing dance. Most improved dancer ever. I agree with Craig's perception of her dance.

[tmlsundin13]

I literally cannot stop watching this, it's beautiful <3



[scottp2210]

Because Craig is a proper judge unlike Alesha, look hoe much more valued a 10 from him is!

[bitterpop101]

@scottp2210 Alesha is a proper judge she just knows that nothing is completly perfect

She scores on how perfect it could be in this competition and in the short time they have!

[leonoraellis]

chelsee you are fantasric keep working very hard and you will have a good result.

good luck

thank you

[stickyfixer1]

Chelsee is great - I would be happy with her or Harry winning. But this dance had some obvious mistakes in it and should not have recieved a perfect score. Harry's Vienese Waltz was, as far as I could see, perfect, and only got 39. Easier dance I guess. But whadda I know!?

[bitterpop101]

@stickyfixer1 Dont be daft!

[MikeyAceH]

@stickyfixer1 Not much

[SaintKiddJess]

there was something really awkward and messy about that dance to me. i really didn't enjoy it as much as the others and i think she was over marked for sure.

[ilikeyorkshirepuddin]

This was outstanding but should she really have got 40 when it wasn't perfect? I love her but i don't really agree with the marking.

[whu58]

Len`s perfect and amusing animated description is what the paso is all about, pasha`s choreography is supurb, and chelsee is just fantastic to watch.

[MikeNashArt]

Not sure if anyone else has commented on this yet, but did anyone else notice that the fan didn't open properly at the beginning and Chelsee had to quickly adjust it with her other hand? Her dress also got caught in her heel later on too. I thought she dealt with both situations really well, didn't lose concentration and remained as professional as possible. She danced brilliantly despite of all this. I'm surprised the judges didn't mention it, as they have with other mishaps. Well deserved 40.

[loopyla123]

@mslynn oh true i'd never thought about it that way before :) Pasha is easily the best choreographor and always gives her a routine that really works for her for example this paso which was outstanding in my opinion :) But on the other hand aliona is also an amazing choreographor and has always made harry work unlike some of the other pro's who prefer to play it safe. I reckon its going to come down to who dances better on saturday :)

[BigPhilQPR93]

Lets face it Craigs ten is the one that counts.

[sens8ionalsarah]

Chelsee dances incredibly well and so elegantly for someone of her height, that performance was really good!!!!!

[sellenb]

Totally been bowled over by Pasha this year, think he is just an amazing choreographer and I am so glad the first 40 went to him... Well deserved. What he's done with Chelsee has been amazing, thought there American Smooth was so under-marked... Chelsee to win. Can't wait for the tour now. Hope Pasha is back next year too :)

[Singsonggirl]

In my humble opinion, after watching it a third time, the American Smooth was better than the Paso. But maybe Bruno and Craig were distracted like I was. Pasha's seriously WORKING these shiny black trousers. yumm!

And yes: Chelsee for the glitter ball! i'm so annoyed that i can't vote!

[Bowlymania]

Love how Len's looking at Craig like "you better give her a 10 or I'll shank you." Then he's all smiley after he gives her the 10.

[tuttapancia]

I love how Harry reacts to her 10 from Craig, he seems so pleased for her. Looking forward to a great final!

[leonoraellis]

chelsee and pasha i do hope you will win in blackpool next week.

thank you. i think both of you are cute.

[frfrfrfr8]

woow , the best dance in the whole series, she deserve to win, pasha is very cute

[loopyla123]

No ones going to like me for saying this but I personally feel that the girl celebs have an easier time than the males just because of the steps they are able to do are more obvious, however I feel that Chelsee has done an outstanding job this year. Chelsee or Harry for the win :) both are outstanding.

[mslynn30]

@loopyla123 I disagree. The male celebrities often get away with being able to just stand around while the female pro dances in a frenzied storm around them to distract. Doing more obvious steps means more to look at for error. Chelsee has far more difficult choreography than the others and practically is given a solo each dance which is unheard of. Pasha gives her 3x the amount of content to dance than the others. Even saying that, I would be happy with a Chelsee or Harry win.

[SavageAsCabbage]

you know a celebrity's good when you want to look at them and not the professional

[xXDavidTennantXx4eva]

It's all thanks to Pasha!! ^^ He's amazing, so lovely and the best!! :'D <3

[pommedepassionx]

Yes there were a few mistakes to do with timing, but the whole atmosphere they evoked together was enough to make those mistakes seem trivial and insignificant. What an incredible dance. Team Chasha to win.

[999jimboy999]

Chelsee has GOT to win!!!

[torhatid]

Wonderful Paso Doble and love the Flamenco elements Pasha put into it. This pair has been simply amazing. For the person who said this wasn't a paso because there was no cloak, a cloak does not a paso doble make. This dance was chock full of content.

[mslynn30]

@torhatid It amazes how little people actually know about these dances. That was probably the most authentic Paso choreography I've seen on one of these shows in a long time. The Flamenco elements with the classic Paso were on point. A Paso is not all about throwing a cape around. That was difficult choreography that Pasha gave her. For those doubting it; try putting a fan in your hand and simultaneously stomp your feet and Flamenco at the same time in unison. Mmhmmm...I'll wait...

[blacksuit42]

I'm so glad Chelsee got the first 40. Much better than the Aliona show. Well deserved 40 that!

[LindaxMitten]

Come On Harry Judd you must win, you are better than Chelsee.

[torhatid]

@LindaxMitten You may want him to be better, but he really isn't.

[blacksuit42]

@torhatid I agree! It's all about Aliona with that pairing. He stands whilst she dances around him

[LindaxMitten]

I think this was not a paso doble, it look like a tango. I was waiting for the cloat to come out, but it didn't and she was wearing a wrong type dress for the dance. i think holly valance paso doble was better than this. I don't know why she a 40 for this dance it was "Shit!!!!"

[youngfreeable]

@LindaxMitten I'd like to see you dance this Paso Doble and we'll see how shit it is then.

[pommedepassionx]

@LindaxMitten Well, you obviously feel threatened that he's not going to win if you feel the need to write utter trash and slander his main competition on one of her videos.

[unilad84]

Absolutely fantastic. Pasha deserves far more praise and credit for the choreography he produces - it is truely 'Strictly' and traditional in keeping with the dances. They have been a complete revelation and there is something endearing about a young person being able to embrace ballroom dancing. I would love for Chelsee to win too.

[kp8895]

and she did the whole dance holding on to a fan. LOVE this girl! LOVE pasha! please get together and make very cute little dancing babies....

[TheGlitzieGirl1]

absolutely wopnderful!  i want them TO WIN!

[wiyyiyum]

They were out of time in the corner but that was it. Jill and darren made a mistake in the jive they got 40 for aswell. Shit happens. it was still the best paso seen on the show. Incredible

[happinesscanbefound]

I want Chelsee to win, but I'm afraid Harry will, because of the McFly fans! I adore Harry, but Chelsee is hands-down THE BEST DANCER EVER !!!!!!!!

[eclectica1]

@happinesscanbefound No disrespect intended, but can you actually contemplate the prospect that NOT ALL of the Harry fans are into McFly?

[PigeonPieProductions]

@eclectica1 That was not what that comment meant. The fact that Harry has such a strong, devoted fanbase originating from his part in McFly that vote for him regardless of how good his dancing was is a distinct advantage. Chelsee and the other contestants do not have this advantage. Nobody is suggesting that only McFly fans vote for Harry. Merely that, on top of those who vote for him purely based on his performance, he has the added boost of hundreds of die-hard McFly fans.

Clear enough?

[eclectica1]

@PigeonPieProductions Fair enough, but I don't think that Chelsee and Jason are at that much of a disadvantage. And maybe there might be some McFly fans out there who are open-minded and objective enough to see talent in the others.

I just hope that whoever wins will deserve it, and that nobody has any reason to cry 'fix'.

[PigeonPieProductions]

@eclectica1 Well, I can't speak for everyone obviously, but I know of a group of girls who are voting 10 or 15 times for Harry every show. I'd call that a pretty good advantage.

I agree. Any one of the finalists deserve to win, and any cries of 'fix' will have no basis -- contestants win on their popularity with viewers, not simply on dancing ability. Harry just happens to be very popular with some people!

[ninigreen7]

@happinesscanbefound I could not agree more with your comments and in fact Harry did win. It was very difficult this time, becuase both became very good dancers...this dance is amazing! Chelsee is beautiful and unassuming. Pasha is GORGEOUS!!

[GOSMGR1]

Dance of the night,dance of the series. That is all.

[AJDavid90]

Chelsee was amazing, but no one dances the paso better then Pasha!!!

[toxicbrit98]

Im still speechless by this Paso.Pasha is a wonderful choreographer, he always let Chelsee shine and that also show how much he trusts her:) Just wonderful Im so pleased for them.I would also like to add that I really really want them to win but with the Mc Fly huge fanbase it will be very difficult.Even if they dont win I wont be bitter and will still be happy for Harry.I love his reaction to Chelsee's score:).

[zaftra]

I found it odd there was a few mistakes in this and yet Craig gave a ten.

[drewexpert]

@zaftra couldnt agree more, have watched it a couple of times and they're definately out of time in the corner and I think she also almost forgot something near the end. Still such a natural dancer though and would make a worthy champion.

[zestu82]

I had a tear in my eye by the time Bruno raised his 10, she deserved it.

[kayezak]

Wow that was fantastic! I love that they all called it the PashaDoble afterwards. Chelsee is so modest she doesn't realise how good a dancer she is, & as for Pasha he is a great dancer, choreographer & seems such a nice guy!

[CescRVP]

Craig's is the really meaningful 10, lol. The reaction when he gives one out is always bigger, haha. The others give them out like candy! Go Team Chasha!

[mirthile]

OMG, I adore them. Chasha to win!!!

[Robinitno]

AMAZING.
