Let's Dance: Junk Sükrü Pehlivan has to go

The new episode of "Let's Dance" was all about the bright 90s, impressively exemplified by someone outside the dance floor. Jury member Jorge González (52) had such an elaborate head of hair draped on his head that he almost automatically maintained a safety distance of 1.5 meters from his colleagues in times of the corona crisis. However, a studio audience was once again not there to experience this sight live. In the end, the band was only cheered up by the moderator Sükrü Pehlivan (47) and Alona Uehlin (30). But one after the other.

(K) a perfection and the second chance used

Because John Kelly (53) can no longer take part in the show due to family reasons, model Loiza Lamers (25) and Andrzej Cibis (32) were allowed back on stage. Seldom has a second chance been better used in the dance show – 24 points for her Charleston spoke a clear language, Joachim Llambi (55) anyway: "So I imagine a return and so please continue now," he spurred on the Dutch woman . Even though they had to perform for Rednex's "Cotton Eye Joe"!

Mister and Misses had opened the evening 30 points from the previous show, i.e. singer Luca Hänni (25) and his dance partner Christina Luft (30). They did not manage this feat with their Slowfox this time, but they achieved a rock-solid 22 points. Others were responsible for perfection in this issue …

Joy and sorrow

Yes, episode five of "Let's Dance" also got the highest rating. This was ensured by artist Lili Paul-Roncalli (21), who was praised by the jurors for the clover. The defeated her "standard curse" in a slow waltz with dance partner Massimo Sinató (39) and was "pure elegance", González said. And Motsi Mabuse (38) also crowned her "Queen of Attitude, Expression and Flexibility". The reward: the full 30 points.

Moderator Ulrike von der Groeben (62) and partner Valentin Lusin (33) could only dream of such a rain of points. Their cha cha cha was more like la la la, the jury decided – with 14 points, it was the hottest score of the evening. However, this did not mean the end for the oldest participant of this season – instead, as mentioned at the beginning, it caught Sükrü Pehlivan and Alona Uehlin.

And otherwise? Laura Müller needs a replacement!

"Changing partners is not easy" – with this sentence from Mabuse in the direction of Laura Müller (19), the smart "Let's Dance" director would have shown the Wendler in a close-up if he had been allowed to sit in the studio. Background of this statement: In the short term her dance partner Christian Polanc (41) had to pass due to illness, for him professional Robert Beitsch (28) jumped in, the former dance partner of the retired Steffi Jones (47). After only two hours of training together, they made it to 20 points and into the next round.
