Anita Rani & Gleb Savchenko Paso Doble to 'Malaguena' - Strictly Come Dancing: 2015 

I'm still watching this dance today years later, it gives me goosebumps. It's the best performance I have ever seen on strictly for me. The theatre the production just everything was on point I can't get enough if it. Whether or not it was technically perfect I dont care, it entertained me and it deserved tens all round and the way they looked at each other at the end still in total character mode was jaw dropping.

I couldn't take my eyes off Gleb, that man is utterly mesmerising.

IT SHOULD HAVE SCORED 10 - 10 - 10 - 10 - IT GAVE ME GOOSEBUMPS.....

God I’d forgotten how gorgeous Gleb savchenko is 😍 loved this dance - Anita was brilliant in it !

I watch this every year after there's a paso on the current season, it's amazing. Best Paso ever on strictly

Once again Anita was UNDERMARKED!!!!!!!

The best dance of the night. Love Anita and adore Gleb. ..My gosh! what a handsome man!! I can't stop rewinding lol

My jaw dropped after seeing this performance!!! The music, the stage setting, the choreo and her dancing was just OUTSTANDING!! She deserved more than one 10 as it was her best performance, and the best performance of the night!!! Again she was underscored! If this didn't get 4 10's what will?

STILL THE BEST PASO DOBLE EVER ON STRICTLY! !! can't stop watching years later

Anita is by far the best celebrity dancer who is growing better and better by the week. She is underscored. Tonights performance was definitelt 10 10 10 10.

Love Anita's commitment, you can tell she is so completely in to the whole thing.

This should have been in the BBCs Christmas Day run-down of the 25 best dances.

Right in character even after the music stopped!.So dramatic and thrilling.I know very little about the technique but I know everything about how it mesmerised and captivated me. Great job, perfect music. Splendid!

This dance gave me goosebumps, my favourite so far. I love Anita and Gleb.

One of the best celeb dances ever, one that you will remember, as usual they have been under marked, this not only should have been top of the scores but someone in the Beeb made a bad mistake by not having close the show, it's one of the biggest audience reactions I've ever heard, even during it and was clearly the best recieved dance of the night, brilliant ( and the music was outstanding, best I've heard ever on the show)

This was the best performance of any BBC they deserve an Oscar for this dance .

This Paso had so much passion and intensity, well done, best dance of the night..should have been all 10's!! Anita is really growing as a dancer and did so well.

Although this was a little while ago, Gleb is still the most gorgeous man I have ever seen in my life!

I LOVE the dance!!!! Gleb provided the perfect opportunity for Anita to Shine!! She was magnificent!!! How a non dancer did this dance is profound as she has become so worthy of this title and is now an established dancer. I am so inspired by her. She gives her all. Gleb is an AMAZING dancer, teacher and you see the pride on his face in Anita.s achievements. I see his passion, for her success. Breathless!!! Thank you Both xx

Oh my, this had me in tears, so much passion. Thank you for this BBC, Anita and Gleb.

Stunning pasodoble performance Anita Rani! Gleb is one amazing professional dance teacher. Anita has no formal dance training and she is super amazing consistent in her dance performances.

Astonishingly good and, arguably, should have been four tens. For someone who I understand has had no previous dance training, she would now easily pass for a professional.

I even stopped breathing, so much drama and passion! It's 10 10 10 10 from me!

After watching that again, it is a 10 from me.

I love these guys, Gleb is so 😍

Anita deserves to win the whole series for how consistently she is under marked , nobody expects a 10 from Craig yet ... but realistically this was worth 9-10-10-10. And if Craig had dusted off his 10 for this , nobody could say it was not deserved. Disappointed in Len and Bruno though. Lens enthusiasm during his and Darcys critique seemed to suggest a 10 would be coming..but no. But Congratulations to Anita and Gleb for performing so well , and to Gleb for such delicious choreogrsaphy. Also bravo to the producers for giving them traditional music.... i don't like when they dish out experimental genres. This was such a treat to watch. Bravo Vicky Gill and gang for such lavish costuming too. A Treat all round !

I love you Gleb...

Ooh Gleb, how handsome and marvellous 😮

This was the best Paso I've seen on Strictly. Anita should have been scored 10's!!! I was on the edge of my seat...pure brilliance...Well done Anita! You are fab...go girl

I have loved Anita from week one. It's great to see her getting the scores she deserves! I hope she will be doing this dance on the tour!

Best performance and deserved straight 10s. Anita's always underscored!

OUTSTANDING!!! 10 10 10 10!!

What a dance! Reminds me of Susanna and Kevin's stunning spanish paso back in 2013! And Anita finally got the scores she deserves! Passionate, sharp, amazing! I'd say definitely a ten worthy perfromance

I still watch this every now and then- the sexiest paso on strictly, ever!

This should have got 40, it was perfect, and I was drooling throughout the whole dance

Just watched it 5 times in a row👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Wow...Anita...Gleb...literally speechless last night....that was...intense....*faints

Anita nailed it. Fantastic!.

Wow! Super!

What happened to the other 10s?! This was pure brilliance!

Anita and Gleb's Paso Doble was definitely the dance of the night. They should have closed the show with that routine. Even with 37 points they were still undermarked!

Wow! Loved this!!! Should have had 4 10s!

gosh the drama during this entire dance! loved it

Gleb is so bloody beautiful. It hurts to look at him.

Fantastic Routine and it must be said the Staging , music and lighting were fantastic for the whole show and series as a whole..

Really don't want to tempt fate but we need to get Anita to the Fin*l!!!!!!!! Love her!

BRAVA JUST SO DRAMATIC WOW !!!!!!!

Wow what a performance it just took my breath away lol

When she helps him put on his Bolero it was so sensual. One of the best Pasos. Passion and intensity in abundance.

This is what I want to see at the blackpool ! great use of the backup dancers as well !!

This women has absolutely showed what she's capable of in this dance! Her arms and face are absolutely brilliant her face is a great paso face!

Wow!!

WOW!!! MAHA-RANI!!! AWESOME!!! 😍

Amazing paso great style Anita is great but Gleb ooo my god .

She was brilliant and she deserved to win .

I thought this was PHENOMENAL and I was convinced it would get 10s across the board.For me the consolation was that Darcy gave a 10 and then that Karen Hardy (who I respect greatly) on 'Strictly - It Takes Two', went nuts for it, exactly as it deserved. Check out her comments on BBC i-Player (series 13, episode 42).

Oh God, how have I missed this beautiful man?

This gave me goosebumps. Amazing.

goose bumps ....

SO UNDERMARKED ITS UNREAL. I FEEL SORRY FOR HER AND JAY

So perfect

what a dance!

Best routine ever on Strictly

fierce!

Woah!

Very dramatic! I think Anita's improving so much every week. This was her best dance so far!

Best dance of the series so far

Anita Rani paso doble Malaguena uma maravilha parabéns.

Still the best ever dance done on Strictly

I don't really understand why she's undermarked every week...

I love the music and dance, Well done!!!

Best Paso on strictly ever, I just watched Faye and Giovanni's and just came to check this one out again, yep, still the best.

j'adore

Simply brilliant, they dance so well , poorly marked yet again though.

HERMOSO BAILARIN

Ahhh absolutely fantastic!!!

unreal, spine chingling

anita is fabulous but it's so hard to focus on her when gleb is there

ESPECTACULARRRRRRRRRR

Loved this

Remember when he quit Strictly after one series because he wanted to spend more time with his family but now he's on DWTS. Come back to Strictly !

Lovely, BRAVO

Anita shines again but strictly remains a popularity contest rather than a technical ability contest...,

The most dramatic and theatrical performance of the entire series, if not ever on Strictly! Like Scd Observer said, Anita had fantastic arms in this Paso, almost like Indian dancing and she played the part so, so well. The extra dancers weren't necessary (but hey it's Blackpool!) and the dance would have flowed much better if Anita wasn't on the floor so much, especially at 1:20 (illegal lift?) and 1:33. But for pure drama and entertainment, it was amazing. I would have given a 9, maybe 10 if I were emotional. I would love to see this in the final without the extra dancers, but just Anita and Gleb, to see if Gleb would put more content in and Anita less on the floor.

He’s just flinging her around. Love this dance

Amazing

I thought it was a comic about the formal dance. Anyway I had a great fun!

Gleb gives me those chills lol

I know the judges or production will never let this happen.. but I want them to win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really hope Gleb gets to do a paso doble with Jana on DWTS this year!

So powerful and sexy took my breath away wow,..should have been 40 score! Well done Anita And Gleb

STAY!

Hope they do this in the final!

My first impression when I saw Gleb knee sliding into view, I thought "What on earth did the costume department do to strap the male dancers in those ninny straps?!" When mercifully Anita brought the jacket to Gleb to cover that monstrosity, then the actual BEEF begins, and what a prime cut that is! Beautiful hands and fingers articulation (reminds me of those animated finger gestures in those classic Indian dancing?!), beautiful arches (Spanish lines), it has all. Marred by those silly and unnecessary backing dancers in those silly straps, but that aside, I would easily award this a nine! Who knows, without those time-wasting bits from those backing dancers, it could even be a ten...

Anita and the gorgeous 😍 Gleb it was a shame for UK audience 😭 that Gleb only did one series of Strictly Come Dancing back in 2015.

Fabulouso!

She is damn good

I wanna have muscles like these guys and be as gorgeous as these guys

brilliant
