0:03:09 > 0:03:12Tell us, what makes bhangra so special?
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Well, one word for me describes bhangra and that's euphoric.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19- Euphoric?- It's one of those dance forms that makes you feel happy,
0:03:19 > 0:03:22it makes you want to get up and dance. So much energy!
0:03:22 > 0:03:25Every time I hear bhangra, that's going to be the hardest bit,
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- is going to be me not wanting to get up and dance!- Thank you.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45cos we wanted ballet cos we could have mixed B-boy in with it,
0:03:45 > 0:03:47but we've had fun learning bhangra.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51The judges commented on your uniqueness and your individual style,
0:03:51 > 0:03:54do you think you'll maintain this during the bhangra routine?
0:03:54 > 0:03:57We've learnt all the bhangra technique,
0:03:57 > 0:04:00but we've tried to keep the Nu Flo style, so it's different.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18In previous rounds the judges give you a lot of compliments.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21They talked about your popping, locking and also how tight it was.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24You think you can transfer that to your bhangra routine?
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Definitely, we included popping, locking, a bit of house as well
0:06:28 > 0:06:31and we kept some visuals, which make us different.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34How have you prepared? Have you been researching?
0:06:34 > 0:06:36We've been looking at videos on YouTube on bhangra
0:06:36 > 0:06:40and we had a bhangra teacher show us how to improve our technique.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44What would you say has been the most difficult part about this challenge?
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Well, the three things we've had to concentrate on
0:06:46 > 0:06:49is getting the bounce, energy and technique.

0:08:16 > 0:08:17Moves-wise, your Punjab,
0:08:17 > 0:08:20which is the crossover moves that you did, spot-on.

0:08:44 > 0:08:48and I love the fact that you did popping to express this style
0:08:48 > 0:08:50and I thought it was absolutely amazing.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53It gave me, like, goose bumps, so I'm really impressed.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39How have you been preparing for it?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42We've been rehearsing seven hours a day for the past three days

0:11:02 > 0:11:05I love the way you're fusing your popping and locking
0:11:05 > 0:11:08with the bhangra music and there was a part I liked
0:11:08 > 0:11:10where there was a break down in the music
0:11:10 > 0:11:14and you guys were locking and the music was fitting with your dance.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16It just fit perfectly.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Thank you, Turbo. Well done, guys.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Rajeev, was there enough of the bhangra style for you?
0:11:22 > 0:11:26They didn't incorporate as much as the others in terms of bhangra,
0:11:26 > 0:11:29but what you did have was the flips, the acrobatics,
0:11:29 > 0:11:33and people don't know, but you've got stunts in bhangra like that.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36So, you might have done some of that without knowing.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37That was the true bhangra essence
0:11:37 > 0:11:40in those smiles and the facial expressions.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:19:36 > 0:19:41There's certain parts where it was a little bit messy on certain points
0:19:41 > 0:19:43and you guys just need to practise on that a bit more,
0:19:43 > 0:19:46just to get it a little bit tighter. That's that!
0:19:46 > 0:19:50You guys had some moments in there that were ridiculous!
0:19:50 > 0:19:53You guys had some great moments in there, I have to say,
0:19:53 > 0:19:55and as always you guys looked good.

0:20:01 > 0:20:03- Mr Kenrick?- Erm, I agree with Turbo.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07There were some times it felt rushed with some of the combinations.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11Especially with the main routine. That felt quite a bit rushed.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15Because it is the semi-finals I can see the anxiety start to kick in,
0:20:15 > 0:20:17but other than that, guys,
0:20:17 > 0:20:21again, I think you are another group who are very, very innovative

0:20:42 > 0:20:46I wish I could do that. You'll have to teach me one day.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49The main thing for me, like Kenrick said, is the timing.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Like, it's a big thing and I know we've mentioned that to you before,
0:20:52 > 0:20:56when the very first time we saw you, but other than that. Brilliant!

0:21:10 > 0:21:12The judges' comments are really helpful in a way that,
0:21:12 > 0:21:16if we get through to the next round, we keep working on our choreography,

0:21:17 > 0:21:20and hopefully stepping up to their standard.
