GR8, but it's not better than Polish performence in 2008. They won.

[barbarshater]

LOOOOOL i dont need to say anything any way the british been known out of talent .. not even this is rumba ... where is the rumba rythm ?????

[Alishhh4]

what does she look like?? That's a horrible dress and I don't feel able to comment on the hair - I'm not a tree surgeon.

[TheSambaqueen]

great performance! also check out paloma gomes and her dancing song canta bahia :)

[anneholtz]

I'm still waiting for the rumba music and rithm. I mean, not that the dance wasn't good, she has grace and good hip movement, and he dnaces good too, but this just wasn't rumba. Liked her dress, though.

[panzci]

thumbs up

[MrEmiliaaa]

ohhh sexy

[toshikofan]

What is she wearing!!

[xoxsofixox]

What I loved about this was Ricky's acting talent shining through, he created a character, and you really felt the emotion the entire performance, however his professional dance partner just had an annoying grin on her face the whole time that didn't fit with the song or dance.

[rhysevans100]

I know ricky whittle he used to play fottball for a team called Mortimer and I used to play for them at the same time he did

[dsony762]

superbe....

[muha75]

What's the song name ???

[klingon1984]

Stepping stop by Duffy

[mlw7890]

@muha75 stepping STONE by duffy not stepping stop

[peprilen]

i wonder why this video has over 100,000 views more than some of ricky's other dances on BBC youtube. eg his salsa only has 39,000 views, this video has 136,000 views

[Rickalie1]

i think its because its the dance of love and people think ricky is hot !! :P or it could either be because of all those rumours about him and natalie dating :D

i love ricky and natalie i think they have a great chemisty !! i have videos of them in my account and my account is specially for them :D

[newbirth17]

Ricky is the best celebrity dancer EVER!

[beckyblonde4lyf]

I didn't like this Rumba, which is a shame cos Ricky was a great dancer. I just feel like Natalie was doing all the dancing which Ricky helped occasioanlly! I'm happy the hobbits won tbh =) Natalie was absolutely breath taking if anybody saw her on the SCD tour =)

[andreeabcd]

is she supposed to be a prof dancer or so? she's not right?

[iluvtattyteddy]

bless Ricky in his pink shirt :D

[buetifulqueen]

please subscribe to me i made my first video and im starting to take youtube seriously

[dam9an]

what a frogg's ;/ ..

[cornflake1998]

pm me for a free lockerz invite get a result in seconds

[Nuanceqwest]

I feel like having sex now..................

How do they control their impulses on this show?

[beckyblonde4lyf]

Wonder how Brendan Cole felt after his Rumba with Kelly Brook!

[xxxxxxxxSARAxxxxxxxx]

THEY WERE ROBBED

[Dryfanny]

Ricky was robbed and everyone knows it. I wont watch Strictly again its not a dancing competition.

[susannemcallister]

Ricky & Natalie know they were the best dancers on the programme...so do the professional dancers...so does the Mr. Hollins.

Chris certainly made the most progress of any of the dancers this year. He is very likable and ended up, under Ola's tutelage, as a lovely dancer.

But Ricky could go professional right this minute. And, he too is charming, delightful, generous, and breathtakingly handsome. Bouquets to you and Natalie!! Well done!

[10sugarplum]

i don't know why people are getting upset about a result most of us should have expected. We live in country in love with mediocrity and entertainment which is the reason the UK is never taken seriously.

[iluvtattyteddy]

and exactly what is wrong with being in love with entertainment? At least we're not boring. In Britain we have a good sense of fun and humour, unlike some countries who take everything too seriously.

[CheekiBz]

i cant believe that chris won, ricky should of won by miles!

[fbbluv]

another injustice yet again, ricky should have won by miles all the way, chris is loveable chap but this is dance compitetion, last year rachel should have won.

[stuffhappens222]

chris one to day a couple of minuits ago

[JusticefavoursDaRich]

I'll be so gald when this strictly shit ends. and I don't even watch it! Seems every fuckin bbc programme I watch they mention bloody strictly. cant get away from it. I DONT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT STRICTLY! The bbc made me right this comment.

[jackHNv]

By dumbing down to the level of ITV the BBC nullifies the reason for it's existence.

Who pays their licence so they can watch Z-list celebs prancing about or cooking, or any of the other rubbish the BBC now spends our money on?

[kaycoo]

jackHNv- I do. I happen to like this brainless fucking rubbish.

[jackHNv]

Well, I don't pay my TV licence so that you can watch the sort of bland, mindless, cheap programming that should be left to ITV.

The point is that the BBC should be different! That's why it funded like it is.

[BurgundyBag]

You pay your TV license for yourself, and I pay mine for myself. If most of the license fee payers didn't want to watch this show it would've been taken off air. Check the program ratings and see if that's the case.

[EverybodysNumber2]

Yeah I bet they've got huge ratings! Everybody in the country's probably put it on to check it out and thought what the bloody hell's this?!

[jackHNv]

That's not the point!

All the top-rated programmes pander to the lowest common denominator - X Factor, Strictly etc are cheap, easy programmes for people who are unable to watch anything that takes a bit of intelligence.

If the BBC's aim is to make brainless, bland, lightweight dross like ITV, then why should it be funded any differently?

The whole point of the licence fee is that the BBC doesn't have to just chase ratings, and should be able to concentrate on making quality programmes.

[BurgundyBag]

Well, maybe majority of the people in this country are unable to watch anything that takes a bit of intelligence. In any case you can't determine what other people should watch. They pay their TV license and also entitled to an opinion.

[BurgundyBag]

And the point of TV license is to make sure BBC is an independent agency. It has nothing to do with the level of intelligence that the channel is supposed to provide.

[jackHNv]

The BBC is the only TV company that can concentrate on making programmes where quality is the main consideration, they don't have to worry about attracting advertising revenue, so don't have to worry about getting millions of mindless couch potatoes to watch their programmes.

It's a crying shame that even with that advantage, these days they only really care about making the same meaningless, pointless dross that ITV does.

They could do so much more, as they have in the past.

[jackHNv]

We both pay our TV licence because we have to!

[jackHNv]

The BBC is uniquely funded by taxpayers' money through a TV licence.

I always thought the idea was/is that by funding it this way it doesn't have to be a slave to market forces, and can concentrate on 'educating, informing and entertaining', by making quality drama, documentaries, and current affairs etc. and not pandering to the 'lowest common denominator' TV made by commercial companies.

If that's the case why is it that the BBC is clogged up with brainless fucking rubbish like this?

[wiggymole01]

hopefully he'll go tonight. typical soap actor, fighting after drinking all night. the bbc should have sacked him when the thuggy incident happened

[beardedmeteor]

Natalie is amazing - cool sexy and intelligent

[sweetypie4everin]

Can someone pls tell "What is the name of this dance" ?

[dewwy20]

Rumba

[sweetypie4everin]

Thanks ya..!

[dewwy20]

No probs My Pleasure :)

[morganhinha]

nice *_______________*

[Bomboviper1]

how tall is he?

[skorpio235]

Ricky Whittle? More like Ricky Winner!

Gorgeous! :-)

[sharbar59]

By far the best dance of this series!

[comodequeno]

Natalie Lowe looks disturbingly sexy in this one... Think this is the best couple I've seen this year. Cheers to them

[georgsow]

u r right, this one and paso dance is damn, dam good. i like to watch all the time am here. ricky n natalie, go go

[CeleBears]

Search CeleBears for a laugh-out-loud Build-a-bear based movie! Films contain real life celebrity situations happening to bears, funny for all, no innapropriate language. First film see's Rosanna Bighard, former movie star.- featuring Claudia, and Arlene from Britain's Strictly Come Dancing phenomena

[xKimBerLeix]

It's unbelievable how amazing he is, and only week 2. Absolutely fantastic! Nobody has ever been as good as him, right from the beginning. He has a natural gift. He's brilliant. My favourite, I love him! He's gotta win, and he deserves it. =D

[snaed27]

brilliant ....but the judges were not even watching half the time ?????

[thatgirlwhotalksalot]

Ricky has the stuff to win this whole thing! He is the top contender in my eyes! He looks like a pro and every dance he does, he takes ownership of it and dances it with authority, like he's been doing it forever!

[dubbeltje1971]

Really good couple and I've got to confess to having a serious crush on Ricky Whittle. I can't tell the last time I've seen a man that beautiful!

[mrsthornton1]

these two are my favourite couple, both so talented and gorgeous and romantic. i think ricky is fantastic for a non professional!! this reminds me of the year that alesha won, i would watch every week just to see her dance, but i think ricky could be even better!

[mtav30]

Loved it! I hope the judges didn't notice he mistepped at the end of his spins...

[Mancunited1]

These two are so pleasant to watch!! It helps that he is hot!!

Some of the couples like Craig and Flavia are awful!! Wish they would leave.

This is a beautiful cover of the original song.

[valnaduljina]

@Mancunited1 who's version is this song? it's better than duffy's

[iluvzac66]

SO HOT!

[Nuron666]

The live singers are brilliant.

Anyone know the name of the girl thats doing the singing. Shes a hotty

[MsTiny72]

They are both Gorgeous,

Talented and vey Hot :):):)

I hope they get into the finals

[WOAHiitsAMY55]

MY LORD HE'S HOT.

I get goosebumps every time he performs + he is the only reason I watch the show.

RICKY to win!

[daxgomez3176]

Absolutely fabulous go Ricky go!!! He really lucked out with Nathalie as a partner she is gorrrrrrrrrrrgeousssssss and sooooo talented

[czarinabess24]

fave partners of my mom! my mom wants him to win!!!!!

[ecodelsol]

i want one of him

[rchlllllllll]

haha, as do i ;)

[TheTubeMouse]

You can always see how pleased the professionals are when they get to dance with a naturally gifted celeb. Ricky has natural grace and doesn't look awkward or give the impression of struggling to get the movements right.

[rahele21]

Ricky is just SUPERHOT and extremely talented in dance!!I cant wait to see his dance on saturday nights!!!!

[Ohioma]

I would say that he is the best dancer straight out two dances in. I know people are comparing him and alesha and matthews partnerships but its harder for the male celebrity to have presence in a dance like the rumba which tends to have you looking at the woman. Strong frame. Lots of natural ability and very strong choreography means they are the ones to beat.

[genevadaddy]

Good, but not as good as Alesha and Matthew's rhumba. They don't have the

same connections that Alesha and Matthew had. I still think they were the BEST couple ever on SCD.

[W00TThisisFUUUUN]

Yes But this is only a few dances in, Alesha and Matthew had had so much longer.

[bluerabbit1629]

actually alesha and matthew's first dance was the rhumba so they can be perfectly compared at this stage

[BurgundyBag]

Then you probably didn't watch SCD series 2. No one has managed to beat Jill Halfpenny when it comes to dancing ability.

[Bevoin1970]

She is very good...!!!!

[RifledBarrel]

strictly AXE that gorm-o show

[mlw7890]

sex on legs

[catface17]

Anyone else notice the women in the left hand corner at 1:18 xD LOL

[JessicaRoseCreations]

i heard he had dance training before this! Not really fair on the other contestants.

[XxHeNxX]

well a lot of actors have some dance training if they go to a performing school or college

[seori]

He's publicly denied it - just one of those rumours that springs up when somebody's really good to start off with.

[BabybeeAlmarieT]

really gudd x

[aroundtheworlda]

Its when you squeeze a sheeps tit to check if its pregnant. If its pregnant some greenish waxy goo comes out of it.

[TheSeptilin]

Nice dance

[miss4lady7pink]

ONE WORD = FIT

[buleyes]

oh i'm soo lucky that i met him...sooo handsom.

[tubeno7]

dance music show nice

[tellavision01]

Wow! He's so talented. They say that how good a man is at dancing is an indication of how good he is in bed. He must be amazing, then! So flexible, love the way he moves his hips. If he has a girlfriend/wife, then they are damned lucky!

[ABDCFREAKFLY]

he goes out with Carley Stevenson aka Steph in  (Hollyoaks)

[vlroberts]

Carly Stenson.

[Midgit291]

haha

[3KATE33]

i think HES GOING TO WIN IT ..

GET YOUR BETS ON NOW...

[strawberrysubmarine]

A few days ago, I put a £20 bet on Ali Bastian to win. But after seeing this weekend's contestants as well, I think I may have put my money on the second-best one. Ricky is pretty good :-(

[bluerabbit1629]

im sorry to hear that, maybe next year it would be wise to wait a see all the contestants to avoid hidden suprises! then again i think itll be pretty close this year so you might not be out of pocket

[sanako1]

whats the name of this song?!! Love it!

[Girlgerm]

stepping stone by duffy :P says it in vid description hehe.

[JimBillieOPickles]

forget ricky get a load of natalie

*drules*

[jennaVALERIEx]

She is such a sweetie =]

Doing Australia proud!

[LouiseMLowe]

Oh. My. God. gorgeous and an amazing dancer!! Ricky is soo lush!

[XMultiSexGoddess]

Ricky = Sex On Legs x..

[mjlover565]

its well cool

[Dance070]

riicky ,ali and chris to the final :)

[bautifulfreak]

I just LOVE her hair!!!

[elliexx242]

[BigGunsEre08]

Argh! I just love him he's amazing

[MsJuicylu]

Wow! Too hot for words. Hope he wins.

[supn10101]

I love it! What did he get for this?

[lilmisssunshine94xxx]

[543cbb]

He got four 8`s and topped the leader board :D

[xBabiiVanessa4evax]

He's Got To Win :)
