:08:47. > :08:53.time I go to do a step, it's twinging which is when I get the
:08:53. > :08:58.real pain. I kind of scraped through Saturday night, but obviously
:08:58. > :09:01.has done more harm than good so I'm paying for it this week. Worst case

:21:03. > :21:05.you were. Nobody - nobody could ever separate you. Of course, tango is
:21:06. > :21:10.tricky. Some bits could have been sharper, especially the little
:21:10. > :21:14.flick, when you do in the runs, in the footwork, line could have been
:21:14. > :21:24.better, but as always you can never fault your performance. No. APPLAUSE

:22:29. > :22:34.dizzy that dizzy
:22:34. > :22:39.dizzy, but you did have that clean, sharp change of direction. I was
:22:39. > :22:43.only missing it in the feet so could have been cleaner and sharper
:22:43. > :22:50.on that beat, OK, so punch that next time, but you do, you always

:23:04. > :23:09.sharp and had attack. The tango isn't totally performance-driven. It
:23:09. > :23:16.needed a bit of refine. In the feet and in the hold, but as for
:23:16. > :23:26.attitude, fabulous. A bit of refinement. So fabulous. Now giggle

:26:32. > :26:37.so I thought I would give Erin a taste of my celebrity lifestyle. Are
:26:37. > :26:42.you enjoying the luxury? You can't beat a bit of chickennal fresco.
:26:42. > :26:48.That's not what I had in mind. You will love what I have in mind next.
:26:48. > :26:53.What do you think of my boat? I'm not getting into that. You've got
:26:53. > :26:58.one more chance. How about this? The only way to see London. What a
:26:58. > :27:08.beautiful view. Stop! You have no idea how to treat a lady. Hey? I
:27:08. > :27:18.will see you around. Oh, am I glad to see you, James, what a day.

:27:34. > :29:03.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 88 seconds
:29:03. > :29:08.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. I'm so sorry. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. I'm so sorry.
:29:08. > :29:15.Oh, what happened? I know. It just went. The other side, the other
:29:15. > :29:18.side. Ah. I'm so sorry. You went to pieces. I know, and in the dress
:29:18. > :29:22.rehearsal you were so good. This afternoon, he was wonderful. It
:29:22. > :29:28.just went. That is a great I'm sorry about that. If they ever
:29:28. > :29:31.do a remake of - Shall we now? No, you've got to stay and
:29:31. > :29:41.take your punishment if we start with Craig, it can only get better.
:29:41. > :29:42.
:29:42. > :29:50.LAUGHTER . That wasn't bad, was it? Yes, good. All right Craig, go on. A
:29:50. > :29:54.complete dance disaster. BOOING. It all went horribly wrong. It was
:29:54. > :29:58.going so well. No, it wasn't going well, it was going all right. And
:29:58. > :30:04.then it went all horribly wrong. He was so good this afternoon. We
:30:04. > :30:08.should have filmed it. Anyway, Darcey dear? Richard, when you
:30:08. > :30:11.off balance like that, the best thing is the thighs, they are a bit
:30:11. > :30:18.wooden and I think that's when balance went because you've got to
:30:18. > :30:24.make sure the knees have nice soft bend in them and use the thighs in
:30:24. > :30:31.the floor. I've got so much loose change between my cheeks, from last
:30:31. > :30:35.week, I'm running out of places to put it, Darcey. I can't even follow
:30:35. > :30:39.that. Every week you have that was just a shame, because you
:30:39. > :30:44.just lost your focus. One of those nights. We've all been - we've all
:30:44. > :30:54.done it, everybody here and on the panel, we've all blanked, all right?
:30:54. > :30:54.
:30:54. > :31:01.Len? It was a tad ploy. I'm going to call youd plod-father. A tad
:31:01. > :31:05.plody. Listen, ask Erin, this is of the most difficult ballroom
:31:05. > :31:08.dances for the men. What happens is when the pros go wrong,
:31:08. > :31:16.they are back but celebrities it take as while
:31:16. > :31:20.that page rates it, but - it exaggerates it, but it's a really
:31:20. > :31:25.tough dance and I thought you came out and did a really good job.
:31:25. > :31:29.one of those things. Richard, my darling, you are a bit too
:31:29. > :31:33.a big spender, aren't you? Should sit down for this? You had
:31:34. > :31:38.on you like a frozen haddock. it was a like a puppet and
:31:38. > :31:42.the strings. Oh God, what I'm doing. You know, it all
:31:42. > :31:47.went terribly, terribly wrong. I know. So I am sure if you come
:31:47. > :31:52.back, it's going to be much, much better. I hope so. I am now going
:31:52. > :32:02.to make you - Arnold, listen - Sorry, Bruce. I'm going to make you
:32:02. > :32:08.
:32:08. > :32:12.my favourite. Get off! APPLAUSE
:32:12. > :32:15.Keep going, keep going. Come back Keep going, keep going. Come back
:32:15. > :32:21.here. Do you know what, Tess, can I just say something, we've heard
:32:21. > :32:26.these tales over ten series, the tales where you forget your routine
:32:26. > :32:30.and we rehearsed it within an inch of its life didn't we? Yes. And
:32:30. > :32:36.just went. I thought the cameras are rolling, this is no dress rehearsal.
:32:36. > :32:41.We are going to be on the forever! LAUGHTER. We all loved it
:32:41. > :32:45.up here, didn't we? Oh yes. Darcey said you have improved, you
:32:45. > :32:50.lost focus. It could happen to anybody. It's awful. I mean, it
:32:50. > :32:58.could happen to anyone. It did happen. Another question, has this
:32:58. > :33:04.new macho persona of yours won you legion of female fans?
:33:04. > :33:09.all quarters, in fact the cab driver who dropped me off today said "What
:33:09. > :33:12.are you wearing, what is that scent?" Unbelievable, isn't it?
:33:12. > :33:22.Just attracting people left, right and centre. I part from this one,
:33:22. > :33:34.
:33:34. > :33:42.That's fair enough, Tess. It is That's fair enough, Tess. It is
:33:43. > :33:46.fair. Not your strongest score. All is not yet lost. Please vote. If our
:33:46. > :33:56.Richard set your Bonfire Night on fire with that routine, he is going
:33:56. > :33:59.Call after all of our couples have Call after all of our couples have
:33:59. > :34:04.danced if you want to see him sashaying across that floor one
:34:04. > :34:14.week. Our next couple is
:34:14. > :34:14.
:34:14. > :34:19.and James Jordan. APPLAUSE . Denise Van Outen, what a lovely name.
:34:19. > :34:24.Having three parts to your name can make you seem sophisticated,
:34:24. > :34:31.cultured, you know, one of the elite. Mind you, it can go the other
:34:31. > :34:40.way, like Craig Revel Horwood. LAUGHTER. Or Anton du Beke. Or as I
:34:40. > :34:42.call him du Burk. Anyway, here are in training. I found the
:34:42. > :34:45.cha-cha-cha very difficult to learn and it was something that James
:34:45. > :34:49.tried to work on with me, and unfortunately I kind of let him
:34:50. > :34:53.a little bit on the night. It was a little jolty and wooden, you
:34:53. > :34:56.work on that. Craig was right. could feel it when I was doing the
:34:57. > :35:02.dance. The thing is, I loved being in character and got a little
:35:02. > :35:05.carried away and just the technique. It wasn't quite
:35:05. > :35:10.crisp as I would have liked. It's justified and it has put fire in my
:35:10. > :35:15.belly and given me something to on. This week, we are dancing the
:35:15. > :35:19.Viennese waltz. Basically, it's quite a simple dance. It has three
:35:19. > :35:25.steps one way, three steps the other way, and you add a little fleckerl
:35:25. > :35:29.in. Lovely. Personality-wise I'm more of a Latin girl, definitely.
:35:29. > :35:34.If Denise is going to master dance she has to love ballroom
:35:34. > :35:38.I'm going to show her how much people really love ballroom dancing.
:35:39. > :35:43.This is brilliant. It just makes me feel really good. I love it.
:35:43. > :35:48.about listening to of the music and allowing
:35:48. > :35:53.be led, I think. Are you yet? Starting to. Get on the right
:35:53. > :35:59.foot then. Excuse me, could I this partner from you? Finally,
:35:59. > :36:09.real man. What are you doing on Saturday night? I'm free. James,

:38:06. > :38:11.danced. Thank you. Thank you. That was so emotional. I nearly
:38:11. > :38:16.on there with you. Len? Poise, posture, performance. First class.
:38:16. > :38:22.More turns than a Catherine Wheel. Absolutely spectacular,
:38:22. > :38:32.you. You are right. You are right. That was. You don't know how
:38:32. > :38:32.
:38:32. > :38:37.that was. Bruno? A romantic dream, set to music. Flowing, fluid, the
:38:37. > :38:46.rotation was exquisite. The two spins into hold, seamless. They are
:38:46. > :38:52.so difficult to do. That was so pretty. And the fleckerl. I love
:38:52. > :38:58.doing the fleckerl. And you do it beautifully, my dear. You
:38:58. > :39:08.fleckerl any time. Fabulous. think I've got a fleckerl left in
:39:08. > :39:09.
:39:09. > :39:19.me. All right, Craig? One word: a-maz-ing. You wait until you see
:39:19. > :39:20.
:39:20. > :39:24.that. Go on, off you go. It was wonderful. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE .
:39:24. > :39:28.Well done, there's a fleckerl in the Well done, there's a fleckerl in the
:39:28. > :39:34.house. You have said that is not your friend but the
:39:34. > :39:37.loved it. Was it tough? I was getting really dizzy when I started
:39:37. > :39:43.practising at the beginning of week. And you are dizzy anyway. I
:39:43. > :39:46.am a dizzy blonde, but I love it now. Much better than dress
:39:46. > :39:51.rehearsal. It was a disaster. So I'm very proud of you,
:39:51. > :39:54.Thank you, thank you. Last week you lost your lead on the leaderboard to
:39:54. > :40:04.Louis. Do you think tonight might get back on top? We will
:40:04. > :40:15.
:40:15. > :40:19.Who knows? BOOING
:40:19. > :40:25.yes! Yes, look at that then. 35. yes! Yes, look at that then. 35.
:40:25. > :40:31.Top score. Really well deserved. Thank you. See, ballroom girl. She
:40:31. > :40:39.is a ballroom girl. Did Denise and James' ballroom melt your heart? Who
:40:39. > :40:42.would have thought they could be so sweet?
:40:42. > :40:43.Good phone action, Denise. What an explosive night it has been already.
:40:43. > :40:45.explosive night it has been already. explosive night it has been already.
:40:45. > :40:47.Good phone action, Are you ready for some more? You
:40:47. > :40:54.want some more, ladies and gentlemen? CHEERING. That was a
:40:54. > :40:59.Who is next, Bruce? Our fifth couple is
:40:59. > :41:03.Pendleton and her partner Brendan Cole. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE . Very
:41:03. > :41:07.popular couple. Now then, last week they pretended to get married but
:41:07. > :41:13.this week has been anything but a honeymoon. Here they are in
:41:13. > :41:15.I was really pleased with my I was really pleased with my
:41:15. > :41:16.I was really pleased with my performance on Saturday. But I've
:41:16. > :41:18.performance on Saturday. But I've performance on Saturday. But I've
:41:18. > :41:21.I was really pleased never been to a Hallowe'en party
:41:21. > :41:25.before, so it was by far the most Hallowe'eny thing I've ever done in
:41:26. > :41:33.my life. I have faith in you, you've got to have faith in
:41:33. > :41:39.yourself. This was a proper tango. Well done. Oh my God, you! This
:41:39. > :41:44.week, Brendan and I will be dancing the samba. How am I supposed to
:41:44. > :41:49.keep up with that? Samba is ridiculous. So many different
:41:49. > :41:53.rhythms to learn. Timings and it takes commitment. That's so
:41:53. > :41:58.complicated. It's less complicated, just one step. I don't feel I know
:41:58. > :42:03.what we are doing at all. I thought you wanted to change it so I changed
:42:03. > :42:09.it and - But that's a change. I think one of the biggest
:42:09. > :42:13.things that Victoria struggles with is that she is good at it. It will
:42:13. > :42:17.never be perfect but we make it as good for us as we possibly can. I
:42:17. > :42:20.decided to leave. Things that is part of Strictly Come
:42:20. > :42:23.Dancing. I'm very used to it. you have a difference of opinion
:42:23. > :42:26.just makes you realise that you really need to work together as a
:42:26. > :42:31.team. Brendan and I came in together today, got straight down to work,
:42:31. > :42:34.which is exactly what we needed do. I gave him a bit of a cuddle.
:42:34. > :42:39.You need to get back on your after you have fallen off. We can
:42:39. > :42:45.that because we have a strong bond. It might take a bit of a miracle
:42:45. > :42:54.it would be really great to bring a samba party to Saturday night.

:44:38. > :44:38.Good job, babe. You saucy, saucy Good job, babe. You saucy, saucy
:44:39. > :44:40.Good job, babe. You saucy, saucy Victoria. I didn't think you would
:44:40. > :44:42.Victoria. I didn't think you would Victoria. I didn't think you would
:44:42. > :44:44.Good job, babe. You ever do that. Len, start us off. I
:44:45. > :44:49.read this week we've come out of the recession and I think you've come
:44:49. > :44:55.out of your shell because to come up on this stage thing and dance
:44:55. > :44:58.front of millions of people I think is very brave and courageous. It was
:44:58. > :45:06.very neat and nice. Occasionally you were a little bit unstable in
:45:06. > :45:13.places, but I thought your bravery was terrific. Well done. APPLAUSE.
:45:13. > :45:16.Now then, Bruno? Yes, Victoria does Vegas, and it was all very, very
:45:16. > :45:22.promising at the beginning. problem started when you went to
:45:22. > :45:29.dance floor. It was Las Vegas hangover. What? No, samba has
:45:29. > :45:36.much stronger, much more and you were shaky. I was shaking.
:45:36. > :45:40.That was choreographed. Yes, choreograph the hangover. No, I'm
:45:40. > :45:44.sorry, on week five the move be clean, it has to be precise, you
:45:44. > :45:49.have to do much, much more. We total you before, work on your strength,
:45:49. > :45:54.especially on these dances. You have to be on it. You
:45:54. > :45:59.cannot be behind it. But it was a shake samba. It started
:45:59. > :46:02.Craig? I thought it was a little lumpish and awkward in places. Your
:46:02. > :46:11.free arm also needs a lot of attention, you can't forget
:46:11. > :46:18.that is there. Those steps, - that was just walking backwards,
:46:18. > :46:22.funny. Then why were you doing darling? A bit of a non-event, but
:46:22. > :46:28.actually I thought you coped quite well with the whole routine,
:46:28. > :46:31.really did. APPLAUSE. And finish up with, Darcey? No,
:46:31. > :46:36.Victoria, you started so well, is right, if you get on this stage
:46:36. > :46:41.and you can do that, you are show girl. You really are. But the
:46:41. > :46:45.heels did help, but you just lose your focus at the very end, that's
:46:45. > :46:49.the only thing. You kept from the beginning and then you lose
:46:49. > :46:52.your focus. Don't tell coming to the end, yes? But I did
:46:53. > :46:57.enjoy it. You did improve, you did improve. Definitely another
:46:57. > :47:07.improvement. Off you go. Thank you, Brendan and Victoria. CHEERING
:47:07. > :47:10.She is a showgirl, just for one She is a showgirl, just for one
:47:11. > :47:14.night. A shaky showgirl. Still shaking. Still shaking a little
:47:14. > :47:17.bit. It's over now. Outside of Strictly you are the best in
:47:18. > :47:22.world at what you do. How it sort of starting a new discipline
:47:22. > :47:26.and every week having to come up with a different dance? Erm, it's
:47:26. > :47:29.tough. I didn't expect to be a great dancer, I've never done it before. I
:47:29. > :47:34.haven't even had a hangover before so that's something I've just learnt
:47:34. > :47:37.all about out there, that's what I do. So yes, it is really
:47:37. > :47:41.challenging. Does it help having Brendan by your side?
:47:41. > :47:46.yes. Thank you. He has after me so much this week, he is a
:47:46. > :47:53.rock, thank you. Brendan, the samba, and we won't mention the
:47:53. > :47:57.curse of the samba - Don't say it, it's a tough dance. Too much to do
:47:57. > :47:59.in a short space of time but done now, we never have to do it
:47:59. > :48:09.again. We are spoiling you, Brendan, three ladies on
:48:09. > :48:21.
:48:21. > :48:21.AUDIENCE: Ooh! Fair enough. AUDIENCE: Ooh! Fair enough.
:48:21. > :48:22.AUDIENCE: Ooh! Fair enough. Brendan saying fair enough. What did
:48:22. > :48:24.Brendan saying fair enough. What did Brendan saying fair enough. What did
:48:24. > :48:34.AUDIENCE: Ooh! you think? If you thought Victoria's
:48:34. > :48:39.Come on, go. Come on. What are we Come on, go. Come on. What are we
:48:39. > :48:45.doing? Oh, we are dancing, we are partying. Samba, right. Don't call
:48:45. > :48:50.until all our couples have danced. Shake it, go on, shake it. Can
:48:50. > :48:58.Michael repeat last week's miracle on the floor? It's all going on up
:48:58. > :49:01.here, Bruce. Too much? Bruce?
:49:01. > :49:06.You know, we have a lazy stage crew You know, we have a lazy stage crew
:49:06. > :49:10.this week. They've left these two bits of scenery. LAUGHTER. Just
:49:10. > :49:15.hanging round the place. What can I possibly do with them? Don't tell
:49:15. > :49:19.me, Bruno. LAUGHTER. Anyway, I'm doing a joke here and it's good in a
:49:19. > :49:22.way because I never get the audience so near, so it's good, so don't
:49:22. > :49:29.forget to laugh at the joke at the end of it, all right? Here we go.
:49:29. > :49:38.Don't keep doing that, dear. Right. LAUGHTER . No, don't keep doing it.
:49:38. > :49:48.Right, our next couple - LAUGHTER - is Louis Smith and Flavia Cacace. Oh
:49:48. > :49:50.
:49:50. > :49:57.yes. Now, they are doing the samba. He will have his shirt open to the
:49:57. > :50:00.waist. And it will be passionate, hot and a steamy routine. I will be
:50:00. > :50:09.standing around at the end of it with a glass of cold water for Louis
:50:09. > :50:15.and a bucket of cold water Darcey. No! Forget it! Oh yes, all
:50:15. > :50:23.right, it's always funny to - OK, with the right foot. Kick,
:50:23. > :50:26.kick, kick, here they are in training.
:50:26. > :50:29.Last week was unbelievable. We went Last week was unbelievable. We went
:50:30. > :50:36.out there, we did the tango, and it was Flavia's favourite dance so it
:50:36. > :50:38.# Ain't no stopping us now # Ain't no stopping us now
:50:38. > :50:39.# Ain't no stopping us now # We are on the move #
:50:39. > :50:41.# We are on the move # # We are on the move #
:50:41. > :50:51.# Ain't no I loved it. The first killer tango
:50:51. > :50:58.It was an amazing experience, to It was an amazing experience, to
:50:58. > :51:01.receive the first 9s of the series. You know, I have only been dancing
:51:01. > :51:09.five weeks and to start getting nines on the show was
:51:09. > :51:12.feeling. SCREAMING. This week we are dancing the samba. Judges in the
:51:12. > :51:20.samba are looking for lots of energy. It's party time. You've
:51:20. > :51:25.to go for it. Ah! The hardest thing about this routine is being very
:51:25. > :51:28.flamboyant with it. I can't do it. Unless it's on his terms, Louis
:51:28. > :51:33.find it quite hard to let little bit. I feel like an idiot
:51:33. > :51:38.though when you don't do it right. Today Flavia brought in all
:51:38. > :51:41.crazy things, palm trees, hula skirts, to help me get into the
:51:41. > :51:45.spirit of the thing. I feel ridiculous. I think it will take
:51:45. > :51:49.some time for him to have courage to let people see it.
:51:49. > :51:52.Louis can bring his flamboyant side out on Saturday then we are in with

:54:12. > :54:21.condition. A wonderful samba. Bruno? Louis, you have to be the King of
:54:21. > :54:24.hypnotic pelvic gyrations and rotation. There's a girl over here,

:54:43. > :54:49.was fantastic to watch but stylistically you went into a bit
:54:49. > :54:55.a salsa, but we still loved it. APPLAUSE. Yes, it was very special,
:54:55. > :55:00.very special. Craig? The samba can sometimes look a little bit minutesy
:55:00. > :55:06.but you actually made it look very masculine, which was an absolute joy
:55:06. > :55:12.- can sometimes be mincey. You did lose that double bounce action which
:55:12. > :55:21.is so difficult to get and you missed a couple of a two, a three, a
:55:21. > :55:30.fours, but well done. Darcey, did you think, my dear? Sorry, I
:55:30. > :55:34.disagree. I was a bit disappointed. It was a bit safe. AUDIENCE: Ooh!
:55:34. > :55:39.The moves were too calculated for me, I wanted it to be much freer.
:55:39. > :55:47.BOOING . I mean, we've seen so brilliant performances and
:55:47. > :55:52.So Darcey wants you to be free, So Darcey wants you to be free,
:55:52. > :55:57.well, I don't know. Len? Every studio in Britain will be
:55:57. > :56:04.congratulating you because there were so many recognisable samba
:56:04. > :56:07.steps. Yes. Back rocks, the plait, the May pole, rolling off the arm,
:56:07. > :56:10.so many recognisable steps from the samba. You messed up the start of
:56:10. > :56:19.the running promenades, unfortunately - I won't say
:56:19. > :56:25.all great, well done! Yes. CHEERING. It was wonderful. They are

:56:38. > :56:42.the first boos of the series for poor Darcey. No one else found it
:56:42. > :56:45.little bit flat. We all loved it here actually. Finally got your
:56:45. > :56:49.shirt undone. Did that take much convincing? A little bit. It did
:56:49. > :56:53.but I've lost a bit of the last couple of days so I thought
:56:53. > :56:58.today's the day, let's get it down. If you are going to get it out, get
:56:58. > :57:01.it out today. Beautifully done. of the leaderboard last week, first
:57:01. > :57:04.nines of the series, dancing five weeks, an absolute
:57:04. > :57:08.you starting to feel all? A little bit if I'm honest. A
:57:08. > :57:13.few people have gone and competition is definitely heating
:57:13. > :57:18.so it's important to get it right on the day. Amazing. Did you
:57:18. > :57:23.that? I did. One of the hardest for you, a challenging dance. It
:57:23. > :57:33.was, yes, but liked the vibe. We enjoyed the hypnotic hips, and
:57:33. > :57:34.
:57:34. > :57:44.I still like your performance, I still like your performance,
:57:44. > :57:50.

:57:55. > :57:59.What do you think? You might life is a beach for these two but
:57:59. > :58:09.they still need your votes. If you want Louis' beach party to continue,
:58:09. > :58:11.
:58:11. > :58:16.Louis might zip his shirt back up. Louis might zip his shirt back up.
:58:16. > :58:20.We don't want that, do we? No, to you, Bruce.
:58:20. > :58:27.Please. Our next Salmon and his partner Kristina
:58:27. > :58:35.Rhianoff. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE . Colin, he is a nice fella but such
:58:35. > :58:41.name dropper. He told me he starred in Prime Suspect with Dame Helen
:58:41. > :58:46.Mirren and in Bond films with Dame Judi Dench. I said all right, you've
:58:46. > :58:56.starred with two Dames. with three Dames,
:58:56. > :58:57.
:58:57. > :58:59.and a Widow Twanky. I mean, a name dropper. Here they are in training.
:58:59. > :59:03.This is one Hallowe'en, I promise This is one Hallowe'en, I promise
:59:03. > :59:06.you, I will never forget. It was terrifying. Very flat footed all
:59:07. > :59:10.the way through. I thought I had the way through. I thought I had
:59:10. > :59:15.danced well so it was really disappointing. The couple who will
:59:15. > :59:19.compete in the dance-off is - There was a lamp in the throat. Yes, hard
:59:19. > :59:22.actually. Colin and Kristina. In all honesty it's like the bottom of
:59:22. > :59:28.your world has dropped out you give it everything and then it
:59:28. > :59:32.dawns on you that it clearly wasn't good enough. I'm going to have to
:59:32. > :59:34.save Colin and Kristina. I want to go, I really didn't want
:59:34. > :59:39.go. Colin and Kristina. It was incredible sense of relief
:59:40. > :59:43.had got through to this week and we live to fight another day.
:59:43. > :59:51.This week we've got the foxtrot we are dancing to Accentuate The
:59:51. > :59:56.Positive. That's exactly what we are going to do: accentuate the
:59:56. > :00:00.positive. Foxtrot really suits Colin's personality. He is a suave
:00:00. > :00:06.gentleman. In the past, we have struggled with my height but now I'm
:00:06. > :00:12.going to use it to my advantage. I will do the kicks, if you want
:00:12. > :00:16.actually - I can do it. I said want to do it but she said OK but
:00:16. > :00:19.you must point your feet. Impressive that it's so high, not
:00:19. > :00:25.impressive that toes are backwards. I suspect it may be one of the
:00:25. > :00:33.biggest kicks on Strictly because I'm one of the tallest guys
:00:33. > :00:43.been on. Dancing the foxtrot,
:00:43. > :00:43.
:00:43. > :02:13.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 88 seconds
:02:13. > :02:17.and Kristina Rihanoff. MUSIC: Accentuate The Positive
:02:17. > :02:23.Kristina, that was lovely. Those Kristina, that was lovely. Those
:02:23. > :02:26.kicks, those kicks were marvellous. You should have been a tiller girl.
:02:26. > :02:32.But only two of them, you could done four of those at least. It
:02:32. > :02:36.fantastic. Right, Darcey? thank you. You lifted your chin, not
:02:36. > :02:44.just your eyes, and you glided beautifully, even with those really
:02:44. > :02:50.long legs. That's not easy. I just would say those kicks were competing
:02:50. > :02:55.with John Cleese though in the Funny Walks but your feet were pointed,
:02:55. > :02:59.they were. Well done. OK, Len? Well, funnily enough, I didn't think
:02:59. > :03:04.you glided quite enough. It was you were dancing on a shag pile
:03:04. > :03:08.carpet on occasions. BOOING. I liked it, so don't start all that.
:03:08. > :03:12.Give us a chance. However, very, very difficult dance. There
:03:12. > :03:16.are so many changes of rhythm, slows and quicks and then a whole load of
:03:16. > :03:22.quick. I thought you coped really well with a difficult dance, just
:03:22. > :03:28.try and glide more. And move more. You got to move more, go on! All
:03:28. > :03:30.right, OK. You can do smart, elegant, with an aura of
:03:30. > :03:34.sophistication. You are a great actor, you can do that. And the
:03:34. > :03:39.legs, I'm telling you, you got more extension than Darcey Bussell. You
:03:39. > :03:43.know? And it's all lovely, but is right, it needed a little more
:03:43. > :03:49.movement, but a great performance. It was, absolutely. Loved it,
:03:49. > :03:57.it. Well done with him, Kristina. Off you go there. Colin, be proud.
:03:57. > :03:59.Up the stairs. CHEERING Up the stairs. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
:03:59. > :04:02.You suave gentleman, Colin. And You suave gentleman, Colin. And
:04:02. > :04:11.those high kicks, I believe, your idea, were they not? They were
:04:11. > :04:17.indeed, yes. Oh my gosh! One more, just because we can. Definitely
:04:17. > :04:19.record-breaking high kicks, the highest in Strictly history. Even
:04:19. > :04:23.Brendan pulled something just watching. You were in the dance-off
:04:23. > :04:26.last week, has that changed focus? Yes, we came in Monday,
:04:26. > :04:30.there was not a lot of humour around, but very focused, but I
:04:30. > :04:34.you what, I was still alive on Monday morning which was the thing
:04:34. > :04:38.that we dreaded. It was scary. Happy to still be here, yes.
:04:38. > :04:43.Absolutely. I think your family are in tonight? Do they for
:04:43. > :04:53.step? They do, yes. Look, she is, she is a beautiful girl.
:04:53. > :05:05.
:05:05. > :05:08.Yes, they are amazing. proud of my family. Scores are in.
:05:08. > :05:11.27 out of 40, I think that's your 27 out of 40, I think that's your
:05:11. > :05:15.personal best to date, Colin? it is our best, very happy.
:05:15. > :05:25.well done in the foxtrot. want Colin to avoid the foxtrot this
:05:25. > :05:28.
:05:28. > :05:33.Vote when lines open later. If you Vote when lines open later. If you
:05:33. > :05:36.fancy socialising with fellow Strictly fans, then check us out. So
:05:36. > :05:46.many options. That was fabulous. Back to you, Bruce.
:05:46. > :05:47.
:05:48. > :05:53.OK, our next couple is and Karen Hauer. Now then, Nicky has
:05:53. > :05:57.two sons, twin boys they are, and I said to him "That must be an awful
:05:58. > :06:05.worry?", he said "You mean because twins are always getting into
:06:05. > :06:10.trouble? He said no, worse than that, they could turn out like
:06:10. > :06:12.Jedward". Ooh, all right, are in training.
:06:12. > :06:13.I actually really enjoyed the I actually really enjoyed the
:06:13. > :06:14.I actually really enjoyed the performance on Saturday night. It
:06:14. > :06:15.performance on Saturday night. It performance on Saturday night. It
:06:15. > :06:20.I actually really was like being a part after live
:06:20. > :06:25.movie set. The whacky Professor has found his secret formula. You
:06:25. > :06:28.at it like a rooster with a booster. You kept in character, I like
:06:28. > :06:31.fact you kept your glasses on. I was supposed to take the glasses
:06:31. > :06:36.off. I didn't even notice, I thought he did take them off. It
:06:36. > :06:41.was only when the music stopped and the crowd started clapping, I seen
:06:41. > :06:45.these rims around my face, I was like "I was supposed to take these
:06:45. > :06:51.off". Do weeks now where it has gone really, really well so honestly
:06:51. > :06:58.we can't complain - two weeks now. Get in, come on! I will pretend
:06:58. > :07:04.that I'm Brendan Cole. This week we are dancing the rumba
:07:04. > :07:09.to Don't Wanna Miss a Thing by Aerosmith. The judges are mainly
:07:09. > :07:13.picking out posture. You look you are drowning. I have been since
:07:13. > :07:16.the start of this competition. I am being very tough on keeping the
:07:16. > :07:20.posture. We really want to show the judges that he is improving. Where
:07:20. > :07:24.is your posture? Everything is: knees straight, posture. Pop that
:07:24. > :07:28.leg in. Don't pick up your feet. I swear, I will glue them to
:07:28. > :07:32.floor. What better way to get stuck in than to say: right, you are
:07:32. > :07:36.to do it, let's do it. You are doing ballet but then Kung Fu on
:07:36. > :07:39.that one. I do work him really hard but in the end he gives me the
:07:39. > :07:43.results I'm looking for. We don't want them to see your weak points.
:07:43. > :07:53.What weak points? You have no weak points. I don't know what you are
:07:53. > :08:01.
:08:01. > :08:11.talking about. Dancing the rumba, Nicky Byrne and Karen Hauer.
:08:11. > :08:11.
:08:11. > :09:37.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 88 seconds
:09:37. > :09:40.Well done, Nicky. Were you pleased Well done, Nicky. Were you pleased
:09:40. > :09:47.with him, Karen? You pleased your boy? I should think so too.
:09:47. > :09:51.Great. Darcey, we will start with you. Yes, Nicky, this is the dance
:09:51. > :09:55.of love and I know you've worked very hard, I can see that, but I
:09:55. > :09:59.would have liked you to all the way through. There
:09:59. > :10:05.beautiful poses and everything. The only thing I would like, it's hard I
:10:05. > :10:11.know, because it's hard to sustain and it's slow, and you did achieve
:10:11. > :10:15.an amazing turn. That ice skating lift, where you just held her and
:10:15. > :10:18.that went on and on, so great control, but more
:10:18. > :10:23.content next time, please. That's what I was missing. OK,
:10:23. > :10:27.straight to Bruno? I thought, Nicky, you really had plenty of
:10:27. > :10:30.intensity and purpose. I actually felt he had a lot, a lot of
:10:30. > :10:34.chemistry. He was playing the girl. If anything, he was playing her too
:10:34. > :10:40.much. He was like Usain much. He was like
:10:41. > :10:44.much. He was like Usain Bolt, you know? I disagree with you in that
:10:44. > :10:49.respect. The only thing he have done, a little more propulsion
:10:49. > :10:52.in the hip action but you were intent into playing her that that
:10:52. > :10:58.was a little weak but I'm sorry to disagree, the performance was
:10:58. > :11:02.actually very strong. every minute of it. APPLAUSE. Yes,
:11:02. > :11:05.and we will finish with you, Craig? For me it was just a series of
:11:05. > :11:09.presentations and, if it was a dance about just presenting your girl,
:11:09. > :11:13.then that would be fine, but for me not enough basic rumba in there. I
:11:13. > :11:19.would have liked to have seen more hip action and just basics. You
:11:19. > :11:23.didn't get the story. He finished it well. It was really lovely.
:11:23. > :11:33.Thank you. Be very proud about it. Cheers. Improvement all the time.
:11:33. > :11:34.
:11:34. > :11:38.Go on, off you go there. Karen Nicky. APPLAUSE
:11:38. > :11:41.Thank you. Lots of chemistry, said Thank you. Lots of chemistry, said
:11:41. > :11:45.Bruno. You two have got a really sweet brother-sister type of
:11:45. > :11:49.relationship. Was it a stretch getting sexy in the rumba? Yes,
:11:49. > :11:52.it's a hard dance, very slow. talk to the pros and they all say
:11:52. > :11:54.it's one of the hardest. The is slow and obviously the intensity
:11:54. > :11:58.has got to be there but that was I did my best. Probably the
:11:58. > :12:01.toughest dance for the male celebrity because it's very slow,
:12:01. > :12:06.very emotive, you've got to wear your heart on the
:12:06. > :12:10.you? Yes, and I spoke to James and Brendan before we went on and they
:12:10. > :12:20.were giving me tips and obviously they gave me the wrong ones!
:12:20. > :12:21.
:12:21. > :12:31.LAUGHTER. Don't listen! Scores are in.
:12:31. > :12:37.
:12:37. > :12:37.You are still improving, Nicky. That would be a great score.
:12:37. > :12:38.That would be a great score. That would be a great score.
:12:38. > :12:47.You are still improving, Improving, right? Yes. If you
:12:47. > :12:49.don't want Nicky to miss a thing in the Strictly ballroom, call.
:12:49. > :12:54.Lines are open until later so just Lines are open until later so just
:12:54. > :12:59.hold your horses for now. Nice one, Nicky. We loved it. Thank you. Back
:12:59. > :13:06.to you, Bruce. OK, our next couple
:13:06. > :13:13.and her partner Artem Chigvinstev. Yes, she is Fern, she is lovely. You
:13:13. > :13:18.know, Fern asked me if I like Fireworks Night. I said "No, not
:13:18. > :13:22.after what happened last year. For safety's sake I put all my fireworks
:13:22. > :13:26.in a biscuit tin. I got so fiddling around for a Catherine
:13:26. > :13:30.Wheel, I finally got one, then spent 20 minutes trying to light a Jammy
:13:30. > :13:33.Dodger". I thought it was funny myself. Never mind. LAUGHTER.

:14:09. > :14:13.Artem and I looked at each other and couldn't take it in. Are
:14:13. > :14:18.shock? Absolute shock. To that people bothered to pick up the
:14:18. > :14:24.telephone and vote for us and keep us in, actually makes me quite
:14:24. > :14:27.emotional, thinking people will pick up the phone, so thank you. This
:14:27. > :14:35.week we are doing a paso. It's very aggressive, a lot of passion,
