@gem_tops shared: "I know everybody else is puzzled by how anyone can do a rumba to jurassic Park...." @bowz4bows echoed: "How on earth can you do a rumba to Jurassic park theme song." @andrea.grimes2022 posted: "Rumba............to the theme from Jurassic Park........is that a wind up??" @imogenalanah_ added: "Rumba?! To the Jurassic park theme?! Done hamza dirty."
During week one of the show, wildlife cameraman Hamza and pro partner Jowita Przystal dazzled with their beautifully joyful foxtrot to Islands In The Stream by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers to secure their top mark and joint place at top of the leaderboard with Will and Nancy.
