Let's Dance for Comic Relief: Series 3 (2011)

I'll keep this brief, because I am very disappointed in the result. The last two series were presented by Steve Jones and Claudia Winkleman, whereas the magic Winkleman has been replaced by bland One Show sofa jockey Alex Jones, and the last two series were won by genuinely funny, entertaining performances. This series was won by some bloke from Emmerdale and a comedian (in the words of Harry Hill: 'Never 'eard of 'em!') who did a tap dance number that was dull. But that's the voting British public for you - look how they screwed up the last general election...

The real highlights of this series were Lulu as a gangsta rapper; Katie Price (yes, Jordan) dressed as a man dressed as a woman, with a very entertaining intro video - 'I'm vacuous'; robbed-Russell Kane dancing Crazy in Love as Beyoncé; a hilarious Jared Christmas as Madonna in Hung Up; and Ade Edmondson's lovely Dying Swan, with pan-wielding cameo by Rik Mayall. These were all hilarious and worthy winners. Let's hope Let's Dance returns to the heights of last years next time.
