And get behind your favourites with Fan Messaging. Top 12 Sunday Night Summary Talia & Loredo were the standouts, finally having the “moment” Matt had been waiting for. Gianne & BJ delivered on both routines but everyone else was up and down. Penny & Charlie were “mesmerising” in Contemporary but “came unstuck” in Hip Hop.
