Alexis and George showed us their Human side with their Showdance depicting their Strictly journey. Anton said “this is what dancing is, celebratory, exquisite partnering, summed up your journey and growth, joyous”. Another 39 from the judges.

Alexis and George chose their Paso Doble to very fitting Game of Survival. Powerful, energetic and dynamic, the judges loved it. All three dances were strong and scored 39 each. We were hoping for a perfect score for George but what a fabulous journey for them, from beginner to finalist!

Alexis and George’s 2025 Journey

Alexis and George brought carnival to the semi final with their Salsa. Craig called it a “real crowd pleaser”. And Anton said it was “magnificent to behold.” The couple No Speak Americano in their next number as their cheeky Charleston impressed the judges. Shirley called it their best number yet. The couple earned their place in the Grand Final, first time on Strictly and straight to the final, now that’s impressive!

Alexis and George raised the curtain on Musicals week with The Point of No Return from Phantom of the Opera. Their Argentine Tango embodied the character – Anton was taken aback by George’s intensity and Craig commended the excellent lifts. The performance earned them a place in the semi-final.

We got a Kick Out Of Alexis and George as they Quickstepped into week 10. Anton called it “a bit of me…clean and terrific.” Craig commented George is “joyous to watch.” and Motsi encouraged George that he’s ready for the next step up. They progressed to the quarter-final.

George and Alexis Rock This Party with their Salsa in week 9 – fabulous, fun and fitting for Blackpool. They wowed the judges and notched up 39 and second place on the leaderboard. Shirley said it was their best dance yet and Craig called George a true star!

Alexis and George were certainly Somebody to Love as they glided into week 7 with their Viennese Waltz. Anton felt the emotion and commended the immaculate footwork.

Alexis and George Jived into Icons week to As It Was by Harry Styles. Like Harry, George is a super performer, but this week the judges spotted some mistakes. Motsi said it “dipped towards the end, work on consistency and concentration”. They progressed to Halloween week.
