Good evening all! Tonight the top 10 So You Think You Can Dance finalists performed two routines per couple.
We’ve taken each couple’s routine and rated it according to the ones we liked the best. And since we’ve got two lots of dances, there are two lists! Have a look at what we thought and leave your own lists in the comments!
