Jack's back.
Sleepin_Dragon22 May 2024
The Solana is proud to host a dancing competition, former pro Cyril Badcock arrives to coach and judge the competition. Kenneth employs new hairdresser Carmen, who unfortunately doesn't speak English. Janice is shocked when Jack returns.

Loved it, the standard truly never dips, how they kept coming up with new and fresh material, terrific.

Is it me, or does Janice get more and more attractive as the years pass, she looks stunning in that outfit.

There are plenty of enjoyable scenes, the dance off between Mateo and Cyril, Donald and Jacqueline's Lambada and of course Joyce's misinterpretation of the Mateo situation.

Love Matthew Kelly, does a good job, he's funny as, that wig is quite something.

You have to hand it to Sherry Hewson, Joyce has been a great introduction, she's a wonderful character. Liam had a good episode here too, he's growing on me.

8/10.

It makes no sense!!!

Michaels street dance, Liam and Trudy, Janice and Jack/Mick. All these dances in the final were MILES better than Gavin and the Spanish girl, but somehow they won. It's actually laughable that with THAT poor 30 second dance (if I can even call it that), as they had no chemistry and no movement. How did they win the competition? It actually makes my blood boil. It makes no sense. It's sold as amazing but it's awful, the crowd all stand and cheer but it's awful, and worse yet, Cyril says "the pros are in tonight" but it's the worst dance of the lot, had she not gone into the table, Noreen's twist was also miles better. Tbh it's made my blood boil since it first aired, and watching it again today just made me feel the same. Weird episode, not a very good season, and in my opinion the start of the Benidorm decline (seasons 1-4 being amazing and from 5 onwards being AWFUL, GUTTER, UNFUNNY, CRINGE tv). 1/10 stars. Mainly for the god awful dance contest.

Wish you would've done better, Benidorm.
