Former Strictly Come Dancing pro Brendan Cole has said the choreography for Shayne Ward last weekend was “terrible”.
Shayne, 39, and his professional partner Nancy Xu danced a Samba on Saturday’s first live show. They performed to Do I Do by Stevie Wonder.
However, Brendan – who appeared as a pro on Strictly from 2004 to 2017 – has admitted he wasn’t keen on the choreography.

Brendan Cole on Strictly performances
Speaking on behalf of Sky Vegas, Brendan told ED! about who could go far in the competition: “There were a few couples who proved themselves to be serious contenders.
Terrible choreography for him because he actually danced really nicely.
“Tasha [Ghouri] was very good. I really liked Jamie [Borthwick], I thought his Viennese Waltz was very good. It’s quite a tricky one to do first, because of the speed and the technique of it.”
Sharing his thoughts on former Coronation Street actor Shayne, Brendan added: “Shayne Ward had a bit of a hard time from the judges – it was more about the choreography – [it was] terrible choreography for him because he actually danced really nicely.

“Some of the choreography was questionable and it didn’t help some of the competitors. That’s my overwhelming feeling on that, and I don’t think that was picked up enough.”
Who could leave Strictly this weekend
Meanwhile, Brendan also spoke about who could be at risk of leaving this coming weekend.
He said: “There are definitely a few [couples] that are in trouble. I’d say the most at risk would be Toyah [Willcox] and Neil Jones.
“She just didn’t seem to grasp the concept of the dance at all, whereas Nick Knowles, who I thought was going to struggle, actually did a really good job.”

Brendan added to us: “For the most part, people had a pretty good first night, the standard was quite good.

“Nobody’s standing out at the moment as a weak link, other than probably Toyah. [Getting a score of 12] has to hurt.”
