Tom Fletcher and Amy Dowden Jive to Johnny B Goode from Back To The Future ✨ BBC Strictly 2021 

Out of all the couples tonight, Tom and Amy looked like they were having the most fun :) pure joy!

Considering it’s only his second dance he did really well and got a deserving 32/40

Now this is a jive! The energy, the performance and the chemistry is lovely to watch! ❤️

WOW - WHAT A COMEBACK!!! Slick, precise, tons of energy, terrific musicality... the most delighting performance of the night for me! Straight into the dancing, no fluffing about, technically not really far from flawlessness, such an impressive footwork, incredible partnership with Amy, radiating positivity, lovely knee retraction, it was sharp, it had the slipping of the standing foot, beautiful placement of the arms. I would have given him a 10 if he had pointed his toes and had hip rotation during the chasses - but otherwise it was purely magnificent! It was solely about the dancing, no distracting costumes or unnecessary moves, a big celebration of a high level of proper footwork, joyful emotions. Tom should be soooo proud of himself! Hope to see this dance again in the finals. My score: an 8!

I tell you what they had me in the first half I won’t lie I was frustrated how long he kept the guitar for cos I think it made Tom rigid when he was in hold with Amy. As soon the guitar went! Bang!! He was kicking and flicking WITH Retraction. He just needs to learn to partner Amy as well he can perform in his side to side sections 8.5

Amy Dowden, the Queen of jive, is back!! LOVED this whole routine. Go Team McFlowden 🤘

Well someone suits the Jive! The toes were pointed all the way through! His energy was infectious, he got his kicks down in the ground and it felt very agile and clean. It was sharp and precise, lovely finesse in the arms and he kept up with Amy really well. The acting was on the money and the retraction was gorgeous. This is so much better than the Cha Cha, its so nice to have him back. All the chasses on point too. *9/10* really liked this ❤

This is the only dance so far this year that I keep coming back to watch

YESSSS!! If you ask me this is THE song for a jive. Very good.

So glad Tom got to live his Back to the Future McFly dreams!!

My favourite routine of Tom and Amy, love a bit of Back to the Future even this cool song. If it was me I’d give it a 9 or 10.

Great to have Tom and Amy back and doing a dance as brilliant as this. Loved this Jive.

Kind of wish he played the guitar bit live 😂 cuz u KNOW Tom can kickass on the strings !

The singer did so well with this song!! Also loved seeing Tom and Amy back!

Tom Fletcher welcome back baby!!! And what a return it was! I know this dance was special for Tom because of the link to his band, and he definitely did it justice. The kicks and flicks were great, and I am still loving his and Amy’s partnership (an underrated one I think). Plus I loved the theming how it was just like the film, and Amy was stunning in her dress 💛

i love you tom and amy you two are my favourites

Yay I'm glad they are back Tom is so good he has natural rhythm xx

.Scores Craig- 8 Motsi- 8 Shirley- 8 Anton- 8 = 32

Brilliant Jive by Tom and Amy. Got my vote. Tom and Amy to make through all the way to the final.😀👍👍👍🕺💃

Score:8 Very fun and his kicks are very good. Characterisation is good and energy is perfect. Hips could be a little better but well done Tom plus very good to say he had a week off.

I saw this performance last night and I was amazed. Tom was very very impressive. It's so nice to see him and Amy out of Isolation, I've missed them. Johnny B Goode by Chuck Berry is one of my favourite songs, it's so cool.

Amazing! Happy to see him on the dance floor. ❤️

Rooting for these two hopefully they go all the way...I've been a huge mcfly fan since I was a teenager and what an amazing surprise tom is hes got the moves:) would be brill if he could do as well as harry Judd.. goooooooo tom and amy💖💖💖💖💖

I'm so proud ❤ Tom is amazing!

Poor girl, she really has been through the wars. Wishing her a speedy and complete recovery.

👏🥰👏 bravo on fun , timing and execution of the footwork

This was excellent! Can't believe they only started rehearsing properly on Wednesday and Tom started learning the dance via zoom

Love this as much love "Back to the future"!

They are amazinggg

loooooved this tom was great

That was excellent!

What a superstar!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟

can't be easy when a fellow band member did really well in a previous series, I remember when Max George (Jay McGuiness) and Lee Ryan (Simon Webbe) did their years, hope Tom fairs better than them. This jive was a delight!

So happy Tom and Amy are back on Strictly and their jive to Back To The Future was amazing on movies week

Fabulous!

This was the best dance from this year’s Strictly. Tom simply smashed it all. He’s amazing. CONGRATULATIONS TEAM MC FLOWDEN!

Yes Tom 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

So great! Hope they go far

Go Tom Fletcher

Superstar Tom Fletcher in Back to the Future

8 Had a feeling this dance would suit him. What a comeback! Amazing timing throughout and I loved how the character came through in all his moves. They reallly brought the scene to life in this dance. It's a shame that some of the kicks and flicks weren't quite crisp enough as mostly the footwork was very good. The guitar and the shoes he was wearing can't have helped with that. He also lost his posture a tiny bit on one occasion but I think that was due to the enthusiasm and he quickly corrected it. Thoroughly enjoyed this dance! He's got serious potential

This was fantastic, Tom! So incredibly proud of you and Amy!

Brilliant 🤩

Loved seeing Danny and Dougie in the crowd 😍 Tom is on a roll

Very good really enjoyed

I’d love to see them in the final

Loved this - well done Tom! Knew you were going to be great 🕺

I didn't know that Back to the Future inspired the name for McFly. Then again, it's no stranger than the Simpsons being the name inspiration for Fall Out Boy.

I was amazed by how good this was! A shame he missed a week, he's definitely got a lot of potential!

A male celebrity who actually nails the retraction in the kicks and flicks 👌 (at least in the beginning)

Love how retro this is! Makes me want to rewatch the film ASAP - soooo good!

JUST AMAZING!!

I love how they picked Back to the Future 😁 Tom McFly is Marty McFly!

so proud of tom and Amy for this incredible jive! and I may have got over excited by Danny and dougie

PHENOMENAL!🤩🤩🤩

So fun 😍 the energy was great

I have to say this brought back great memories of 1985 with Michael Jackson and Jennifer. Jennifer putting Mike on a pedestal and wondering what the weather is like? The fading away of his brother on the photo unless he can get Lorraine and his dad to be good and fall in love again. It reminded me of happy years dancing with Madonna. Great storytelling. Well done 👍🏻

Score: *7.5* WELCOME BACK TOM AND AMY!!! Definitely an improvement from week one!!! The kicks and flicks were good (actually was on his toes and not on his heels, however I feel some flcks could have been sharper when in hold with Amy). However, the energy was there by bucketloads. I honestly Amy and Tom came back with fire and I loved it!!!! Well done!!!

9 I think this is a great Dance for week 3 and the choreography is exceptional, he has sharp kicks and flicks and impeccable timing. The Guitar just made it awkward

He sat out due to covid and comes back with a bang

Voting for him to get into the finals!

It's good to have this pair back. Not so good to have awkward guitar dancing back. Someone does it every year and it rarely goes well. Once guitar was gone, this was actually pretty good. Great energy and not bad technique wise either. 7

Absolutely incredible jive

I like Amy's dress. Well, her whole look actually.

Oh, I just now got it. They had the fella from a band called McFly dance to a song played by a guy called McFly.

So so good! 💫

I do like Back To The Future and it's one of my favourite films so this is a brilliant routine on Strictly

Here bet you doing back to the future for movie week was in Tom’s contract 😂

Amy's great moments: 0:28 (look and foot motion) and 1:25 (scream)

I think we'll be seeing this dance again in the final

Loved it.

GO TOM THAT WAS AMAZING

🤗

I regressed to a teenager so fast when I saw Dougie

Im in Fletcher class

I thought this was really good! He should be so proud of himself

i wish we could see the judges scores on these videos!!

Welcome back, Tom!

Is the guitar His that plays with McFly? If so, I guess that's why he was a bit rigid with the guitar, he doesn't want to break it.

i want tom win

Who is the strictly singer who is singing this please? Been looking everywhere for his name but can’t seem to find it anywhere ☺️

Fast, light, energetic. I would of liked something in hold though . He is going to make it far. 8/10

Team McFlowden!!!!

Are you okay you might have been drinking champagne

Which is better? Strictly Come Dancing or Dancing with the Stars?

This is the one I voted for tonight, but I had two major problems with it: 1) get rid of that guitar!; 2) Amy made a mistake at 1:30. It was worth 8 for me.

Where are the scores?? They put them on but I guess they changed it... but go Tom and Amy!! 👌😍

THEY'RE BAAAAAACK!! So it wasn't spectacular, but they missed a week of practice. They had to do Zoom practices. I can forgive that standard of their dance. They have done well considering their circumstances. Man, his kicks! Full of energy! Did the flicks very properly. Very fast and and precise. He isn't the best, but he is a lot less stiff than before. He totally captured the era of the movie with the dance. Good atmosphere. He's having a lot of fun! Coming back with a bang! All 8s? Think that's a tad overmarked. But happy for them.

Best on the night only criticism stop using the guitar as a prop. Fabulous jive l think these two can win the show it is early days though

😂😂😂😂😂🍗

So sad they got eliminated in week 9

I think they were under marked could have been all 9s was as good as AJs and was a proper old style Jive which I love

It's not an ES-345 :(

I didn't notice Tom. Was he there? No offence but I only saw Amy 🥰

Final aqui comigo amor tvsebiha

He was criminally underscored! 8’s across the board but Dan Walker got 7’s and made mistakes.

I am a lead guitarist in a band and we do this song. Dancing with a guitar whilst playing is hard

Someone really messed the guitar intro up.

Daniel knows as well

Scores Me 9 Abby 8 Kevin 8 Gianna 8 33/40
