and Claudia "Kiss Me Quick" Winkleman!

Good evening and welcome to our results show

And what an opening from our Strictly cast

here in the beautiful Tower Ballroom.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Saturday night saw three couples

scoring ten, things are getting crowded at the top of the

leaderboard. But tonight one couple will be

taking their final steps Your votes have been combined

with the judges' scores, and the two couples with

the lowest overall points will face each other

in the dance-off. The decision of who stays

in the competition lies with our ballroom bigwigs -

it's the judges, and Bruno Tonioli

and Craig Revel Horwood. Also on the show tonight, Anastacia

is here, singing I'm Outta Love. I'll be taking a closer look

at Saturday's performances but before we reveal the first

couple to face the dance-off, let's take a look

at all of the action from Saturday night

in the ballroom. Two tickets to the Tower Ballroom,

please. Certainly, ladies, one for you and a half for the little boy.

Next stop, Tower Ballroom, please, driver! You have got it, be sure to

strap up, it is a long journey, darling! Let's get this party

started! Being in Blackpool, it is great, I had Lancashire hot spot for

my dinner! Air and costumes are better than ever. Going to go big or

go home. It is week nine, and nobody is safe. Everybody is bringing out

their A game, it is brilliant. I need more make-up! Two minutes from

going live. Excited! The show is about to start,

Blackpool, show was what you have got!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE U-turn the ballroom into...

fantastic! You made that looked like an easy day at work, darling. Katie,

that was exquisite, it really was. It was a fitting dance for this

wonderful ballroom. Elegans, glamour and sophistication. It is your best

dance, no question. That was all right, wasn't it?! You work

tremendous. Don't you be lazy and waves starting?! Finally, some

facial expression! -- don't you feel a heatwave starting. It was

flat-footed, heavy, the cakes look very odd. -- kicks. It wasn't your

finest hour. I felt it was a little bit too controlled. This dance

should go mad and wild, you can look ugly in it. Did you go on the wrong

foot? You did? Irene Lee wanted them to enjoy the dance in the way that I

was hoping they would. -- I really wanted. There were some problems,

you had it and then you tend to lose it when you get into

you had it and then you tend to lose start to go a little bit like this.

You deserve 100% for being here in Blackpool, you just keep rolling

along like the trans outfront! I have now danced in the Blackpool

Tower Ballroom, little old me from Birmingham!

APPLAUSE It had mood, it had passion. It was

fantastic. You blew me away! You embodied the heart and soul of

Spain, ole! File that and the B for brilliant. I loved it. Outstanding

performance in a night of dancing delight, well done! Ten!

Thank you! The first couple

in the dance-off is... The rest of you will learn

your fate shortly. Peter and Janette, please come and

join me. Oh! Dear me! You have not been here before, how does it feel?

You know what, I was just saying at the back, when you go on a

roller-coaster, you sometimes sit in the front, you sometimes sit in the

back but you enjoy the ride. I have been so lucky to be on top of the

leaderboard, I cannot complain, and I have had such an awesome time.

Janette knows how much fun I have had. I am very lucky, and I deserve

to be here tonight, that is the way it is.

APPLAUSE Bruno, you said Peter had to be

careful not to lose the style of the dance, what would you suggest he

does? First, let me say that your performance level, entertainment

value should not be touched, it is flawless, you are an entertainer.

Now, make sure that the kicks and flicks are nice and sharp with

pointed beak, being on your toes will help you, nice and sharp quick

on your feet, don't do it all on the flat. Kick it, sharp, yeah? There

you go, that is it! You can do it! OK. It is all there, remember that

advice. We are all behind you, best of luck. See you later. Claudia,

over to you. I'm joined

by three delighted couples. Huge congratulations, second week,

top of the leaderboard, was last night the best night ever? Yes, and

to be top of the leaderboard up north, get in! They love that he! We

saw Joel happy face, that is quite specific. It can make you have

aching cheeks. Your Tango face? My goodness! Eat your hair! It was

really good! It was cool! But yet cuddly. Your first ten! Wonderful.

You have two dances next week, quick step... We are lucky enough to have

the floor to ourselves, we will all be on the floor at the same time.

Seven couples on the floor at the same time doing the fastest hands of

them all, the expect thing carnage. Have we thought this through?

Congratulations to all of you. singing one of her greatest hits,

please welcome Anastacia! # Don't claim that love

you never let me feel # Just show me the way

to get my life again # Have I tried to turn

this love around? # True that you can work it out

all right # Just show me the way

to get my life again # The way you've gotten over me

too, yeah # Show me the way to get my life

again Now time to welcome the stars

of the seaside, the judges! Very nice! Thank you for joining

me. Can you expand on something you said on Saturday night?

First of all, you would like to celebrate Jamelia, you said, you

deserve to be here, the best ballroom dance. What do you want to

say? A lot of steps going on. This is when they do the lovely jump.

Period comes. You get is when they do the lovely jump.

really good job. Thank you. I would like to talk to you

really good job. Thank you. I would hands, you were talking about

really good job. Thank you. I would her accent. I was taken by the

detail that she added to in the rehearsal time and the shaping of

her arms. It was so expressive, really special. Craig, you wanted

Helen to rough up her Charleston. I thought it was gorgeous. It was too

gorgeous, I wanted it to be quirky. It originated in 1920, they were

called flappers. They were going mad on the dance floor, as it was

prohibition, there was no alcohol available, which would be a

disaster. You can be human, you do not have to have all of the

technique. She is capable of it, because she is a beautiful dancer,

but I was expecting more. Bruno, let's talk about Georgia, you gave

her ten. You loved this sequence. Poetry in motion. This girl moves so

beautifully. The fluidity in the arms is almost like she has got no

joints, very balletic, it just was gorgeous. He totally agree. The

extension and feeling, she is perfectly in thing.

The performance over really touched everybody. Talking about a touching

performance, a memorable moment, Craig, here we go. This was my

favourite entrance ever, you on the guitar. Totally into it!

Look at you! Look at you! Talk about giving it your all! Thank you, the

judges! So far three couples have secured

their place in next week's show. but only three are guaranteed

to dance next week. One will have to face the dance-off,

but who will it be? Andy Turner and Gleb. -- Anita and

Gleb. Back to dance again next Saturday

are... Jamelia and Tristan, Helen and

Aljaz, one of you is safe, one of you will have to dance again.

I can reveal that the second couple in the bottom two is...

So congratulations, you are through to next Saturday.

Here we are again. Your fifth time, what is going through your head? I

feel like I will get a fantastic opportunity to dance again here, I

am really looking forward to it. You said on Saturday that Jamelia

deserved to be here in Blackpool, how can she get through to week

ten? You did your best ballroom dance that you have done. Just come

out with that attitude, you will have another dance in the fantastic

Tower Ballroom, just enjoy yourself and do what you do. If possible,

enjoy it. I'm here with the rest

of our saved couples. They are all incredibly relieved.

You are like, yes, we made it! It was your dancing dream, to dance

here, in front of your parents. Was it as good as you thought? It was so

much better, nothing can prepare you for dancing in this space, and to do

one of the dances that was on my list, I really wanted to nail it, it

was brilliant. Katie, if I had told you at the beginning that you would

go through to week ten... I would have laughed in your face. And here

you are. It is good! Tremendous! Well done! Very well done! The

Argentine tango as well next week. Now it's time

for our second musical treat. They have sold

over 45 million albums, # If you want some love

and the It Takes Two team If you want more Strictly, It Takes

Two is the show for you. Next week, we have got more of this... What did

Craig want? Who knows what Craig once?! Not a problem! And plenty of

this. It has been fantastic. It Takes Two, weekdays and BBC Two, say

no more. Thank you, there was nothing in it

on Saturday, this could be the closest dance-off of the series,

only one of you will be back to dance next week, it rests on this.

You said you loved performing in this iconic

You said you loved performing in ballroom, do you feel like, I am

going to do it again? I had so much fun on Saturday night, I loved

performing here, and I am happy I have got the opportunity to do it

again, it is brilliant. The judges said it was your best ballroom

dance, are you proud of her? She is improving all the time, I think it

is our best stance overall, not just ballroom, and I have seen it at its

best and at its worst, and I cannot wait to do it again. Love it!

Enormous luck. Go and get into position, thank you so much, good

luck. Peter, we know you give every dance

everything you have got, full commitment, dedication, how are you

going commitment, dedication, how are you

have no idea! But I will definitely about being light on my toes, and

yeah, I'm just going to give it my best. One thing is for sure,

yeah, I'm just going to give it my going to have a good time doing it.

yeah, I'm just going to give it my We always do. How are you going to

yeah, I'm just going to give it my give him a boost? I always tell in

the same thing, go out and give it his all, enjoy

the same thing, go out and give it can be taken from us any day,

the same thing, go out and give it hopefully not tonight, but if it is,

we will go out with a bang. She also says, don't mess it up! I did not

want to be here with Jamelia, she has been through with so many times,

I really wanted to do well. We will see. We wish you all the luck in the

world. With the standard so high, it is difficult to lose any of our

couples, first to dance is Jamelia and Tristan.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE I don't envy the decision

our judges have to make, Dancing Tuesday in the competition,

it is Peter and Janette. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-- dancing to stay. We'll now find out which couple will

be back to dance again next week. the name of the couple

you think deserves to be saved. The couple with the most votes

will stay in the competition, meaning the other couple is sadly

out of Strictly Come Dancing. In the event of a tie, Len,

you will have the casting vote. Blaze and Peter and Janette, this is

it, Craig, who are you going to save? I would like to say Peter and

Janette. Congratulations, one vote for you, Darcy, who do you think

deserves to stay in the competition? The couple I would like

to save, on their improvement tonight, is Peter and Janette. Two

votes for you, if Bruno chooses to save you, you are through to next

week. Bruno, who do you want to stay in Strictly Come Dancing? I would

like all Peter and Janette to stay on Strictly. Peter and Janette, we

will see you next week. We are going to have to say goodbye to Jamelia

and Tristan. I know it makes no difference to the result, but would

you agree? Fondly enough, no, I didn't, I thought blaze did a very

fine quickstep. -- Jamelia and Tristan. We are so sorry to see you

go. I am sorry to be going, but I have had the most fantastic time,

met the most amazing set of friends, I thought I would get two weeks

three and be gone, but I am here at the Tower Ballroom! You have been

absolutely brilliant and a joy to watch. You have been great mates, we

will not forget the moment you were paired up together, you screamed the

roof down. I have said it over and over again, I could not have had a

better partner than Tristan, he is so positive, he has really believed

in me, and it is down to him why I have made it all the way to

Blackpool. Thank you. Are you proud of her? Of course I am, Jamelia has

done great, tonight was completely different, unfortunately someone

else did an unbelievable dance, but first and foremost we want to pass

on some sort of information, and the improvement every week has been an

believable, I couldn't be more proud.

APPLAUSE We have thoroughly enjoyed watching

you, darling. Thank you and Claudia for being so encouraging, and the

judges, because of you I am leaving with a bit of a down but... We love

you to bits, after you go and prepare for your last dance, let's

hear it for Jamelia and Tristan! They will join Zoe on It Takes Two

at six on BBC Two. For exclusive content

throughout the week, Tess and I will be back next

Saturday at 6:50, when our magnificent seven take

to the floor not once but twice. Blackpool, thank you for having us,

we have had a ball. And now, for one final dance, the

brilliant Jamelia and Tristan! I am really sad that Jamelia has

gone home, because we have become really good friends, such a strong,

brilliant, courageous, determined woman. I am really grateful that I

got through, it could definitely have gone the other way. Absolutely

amazing! Incredible night, cannot believe I have been part of it, I

will never forget it. And next week we're doing a tango, I am going to

be in tenth place again, hopefully that works! I am looking forward to

it, we are going to take them out. Finally, I am going to get to do a
