Strictly Come Dancing 2016 – Week 3 Songs/Dances

Sorry this is a little late. I’ve been hard at work moving the site to yet another new host and making a few additional behind the scenes changes which should hopefully let the site cope with all you lovely people refreshing it at 10pm on a Saturday Night. We’re a couple of days away from week 3 which will be movie week and the BBC a couple of days ago announced who will be dancing and to what music. So here are the routines:

Anastacia and Brendan will be dancing the Viennese Waltz to ‘A Thousand Years’ by Christina Perri (from the Twilight Saga)
Claudia and AJ will be dancing the Charleston to ‘You Give a Little Love’ by Paul Williams (from Bugsy Malone)
Daisy and Aljaz will be dancing the Quickstep to ‘Spoonful of Sugar’ (from Mary Poppins)
Danny and Oti will be dancing the Paso Doble to ‘The Train’ by James Horner / ‘El Sombero Blanco’ (from The Mask of Zorro)
Ed and Katya will be dancing the Samba to ‘Cuban Pete’ (from The Mask)
Greg and Natalie will be dancing the American Smooth to ‘Everything I Do (I Do It For You)’ by Bryan Adams (from Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves)
Laura and Giovanni will be dancing the Salsa to ‘Rhythm of the Night’ by Valeria (from Moulin Rouge)
Lesley and Anton will be dancing the Quickstep to ‘A Couple of Swells’ by Judy Garland and Fred Astaire (from Easter Parade)
Louise and Kevin will be dancing the Cha Cha to ‘Flashdance… What A Feeling’ by Irene Cara (from Flashdance)
Naga and Pasha will be dancing the Tango to ‘Theme from Mission Impossible’ by Lalo Schifrin (from Mission Impossible)
Ore and Joanne will be dancing the American Smooth to ‘Singin’ In the Rain’ by Gene Kelly (from Singin’ In The Rain)
Robert and Oksana will be dancing the Charleston to ‘Meet The Flintstones’ (from The Flintstones)
Tameka and Gorka will be dancing the Tango to ‘The Heat Is On’ by Glen Frey (from Beverly Hills Cop)
Will and Karen will be dancing the Salsa to ‘Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny)’ by A.R. Rahman and the Pussycat Dolls (from Slumdog Millionaire)

Melvin Odoom Eliminated From Strictly Come Dancing 2016

In what has been one of the most controversial not live results shows in the entire history of Strictly, Melvin and Janette have been eliminated after Anastacia and Brendan were unable participate in the Dance Off due to injury. The production team made the decision to revert to the public vote rather than have Anastacia withdraw from the competition due to injury and as a result Melvin and Janette were eliminated.

Were the BBC right to revert to the public vote? Let me know your thoughts in the comments section or over on Facebook and Twitter or by voting in the poll below. You can also vote and tell me who your week 2 favourites were at the bottom of this post.

Strictly Come Dancing 2016 – Week 2 Spoilers

Apologies (again) to those of you who had site issues. I will once again be looking at a new hosting solution hopefully one that can cope with you lot constantly refreshing the site at 10pm

Here we are then with the first results spoiler of 2016. It’s been a busy 10 months here at the home of The Strictly Spoiler. The biggest competition this site has ever run launched last week (more on that later in this post) and the site has moved to a new web host which seems to have done nothing even at max settings so yay I’m looking for another new host! But you haven’t come here to hear about all that. You want to know who will be leaving in tomorrow night’s not live results show. Never fear because the The Strictly Spoiler is here to tell you. So here are the results:

Melvin and Anastacia had to dance off. Anastacia was unable to dance off due to injury and so they reverted to the public vote. Melvin had the lowest public vote and was eliminated. Bizarre sequence of events I know. Were the BBC right to do this? Let me know in the poll below:

This week’s spoiler has come via an audience mole through my usual sources and should be accurate.
