to say, then digital viewers press red now, and you're all set.

first couple this evening is Fern They it are dancing to a song from

Mary Poppins. They are doing the remake of that and with Riyadh. At

the beginning, she will fly in on her umbrella, ella, ella. Last

weekend was fantastic. I felt a bit of the Strictly magic got into my

being and soul. The best thing is that when she performs, she really

performs. She lives in a moment. Wow! That is all I can say about

that. To have four sixes is thrilling. I am really happy with

that. Up this week we are doing the Charleston to a Mary Poppins song.

New week, new shoes. This week's training got off to raise low-start.

My shoes are in here somewhere. -- a slow start. There was a slight

difficulty in Fern Britton getting the Mary Poppins fell. Here they

are, my shoes. I have a surprise for her. This is my surprise. We

are here because I want you to connect with Mary Poppins. We are

on a rooftop with lots of Chinese around and we are about to dance.

just hope I can get my Mary magic out on the night and our routine is

Dancing the Charleston, Fern MUSIC: #

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 185 seconds

Practically perfect in every way! What a lovely start to the show.

Thank you for starting the show like that. That was wonderful. That

was absolutely super. I can't be bothered with the other bit. The

joke has gone now. Of course we have our judges. Please welcome

them. Last week, the dance off was back. There will be another one

this week. It can be very emotional. You are bound to be moved to tears

so I have got used some tissues. Craig, I have got you and onion, so

you can join in! You have changed. I wish! I thought you had been sold

for scrap metal. Anyway, Len, start us off. You made Hollywood into a

jolly good. You embrace the feeling of Mary Poppins. It was a fan. A

lively start to the show. It made Bruno? Prim, proper and extremely

nice, darling. But, you've got to puch it a bit more. - pump it a bit

more. If you look at the film, especially in the ci chen doe at

the end, the charleston needs to be punched more to give it more of an

impression, characterisation good. A bit more punch in the steps.

Craig? Need add lot more swivel in the charleston proper, you need to

bring your feet together. Very late with that. Cleaner footwork. Know

floor is splip pri so that was difficult for you. -- slippery. The

whole thing I thought was laboured. The back jazz split, darling, was

excellent. It wasn't laboured, was it? Really? Why bring politics into

this?! The energy from your last performance was so much better, so

much better. I don't think Darcey's mic is on. Can you hear me? She's

saying I'm fabulous! You can be my kids' Mary Poppins

any day! A wonderful start. Off you He's got me some popcorn. Thank you.

Fern, that was Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

Louis better look out. He taught me everything. How was it for you?

That's the cleanest I've ever done it, isn't it? It was so much fun.

Darcey said you could be her Mary Poppins. Actually, you are a bit of

our Strictly Mary Poppins, aren't you, because every time someone

comes off the dance floor, Fern is waiting with a hug for everyone

else. It's so true. APPLAUSE

One down from last week. What do you think? There is two ways to

call and vote for your finalists. If Fern is your ideal leading lady,

you can call. Don't calm until the end of the show when all couples

have danced, otherwise your vote won't count and you may be charged.

We have gone all glamorous and fabulous and sparkly up here.

you say flab but uluous!? Victoria Pendleton and her partner Brendan

Cole are next. Victoria has only been here for a couple of weeks and

she's already causing trouble. Apparently, she's making a fuss

over which shade of fake tan they put on her. That's the trouble with

his British Olympic champions, they just want settle for bronze!

Land of hope and... We haven't got time. Here they are in training!

Saturday night was really good fun. I was so proud of Victoria,

couldn't believe what she did. Clean, classy and confident. A

fantastic improvement. I would never have thought he'd say

anything like that to me. Victoria is back in the race!

Woogl.... I'm back in the race. Not quite sure about that yet but we'll

see. Here, Then... Brendan and I are

dancing the rumba to Up Where We Belong from Officer and a Gentleman.

It's supposed to be a sensual dance, a lot of emotion in it, quite

passionate I guess, but... I need to work on that. Oh, my good, it's

so romantic. It's so unnatural to me. At the beginning of a race, I'm

usually so focused. In a dance, I'll be focused on my leading man.

I'm immensely excited about this dance. I've always thought of

myself as an officer. I want to audience to really engage with what

we are doing and when they watch it, I want them to be holding their

breath. We are almost going to melt together. I have to melt a bit with

Brendan. I'm not melting so well... I will get the emotion out of her.

It will be fine. I keep telling myself that.

Dancing the rumba, from An Officer and Gentleman, Victoria Pendleton

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 185 seconds

Lovely. Oh, that was beautiful, the pair of

you. While you two chillax - it's our chance to welcome our fabulous

singers, and the wonderful, wonderful orchestra. All of you!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Yes.

Would you have rather done that with Richard Gere? No, not at all.

That was lovely. Did you see her face?!

Now then, Bruno, start us off? Victoria, Victoria, just when you

were starting to sizzle, you nearly boiled over. I tell you, the first

impression, no officer or gentleman or general would turn you down, you

were really going for it. Then you got yourself I think to a mangle

and lost concentration and you kind of fizzled out. The beginning was

very, very good, you know that. The beginning was very, very, very good,

so keep working on that direction and try to keep the composure.

Don't lose it. If something happens, go back on it. Go into it. You know

what I mean. You are a toucher! Craig? I'm beginning to see an

actress emerging which is fantastic. Some really fantastic straight legs

with the wonderful hip action which was beautiful to see. Back drag I

didn't like very much because of your leg shaping but I know you had

a bit of a costume drama. You need to get air underneath that chiffon

and get your arm out the way sooner, that was my point last week. You

have to get that happening. But, you are improving and it's

wonderful to see. Exactly. APPLAUSE

Marvellous. Not too much soft pedalling! Darcey? You do look like

you've just come off that set. You do look beautiful. There were no

nerves and there were some sensual moves happening there. I like that

and the rumba has to have that. When I mentioned about your splayed

fingers last time. A tip maybe in rehearsals to help this, because

they are very visual - can I have your hand please - think of a small

piece of paper, smaller than that, work with that and you will create

a better line eventually. Thank you, You are improving every show, you

are. Len's face while all that was going on. All good. I'm in a good

mood so I'm not going to be moaning. This is like ride ago bike, got on

week one, git going so it was a bit wob by -- get going. Last week, you

get yourself pedalling along and this week you have carry on the

pumping the tyres and getting yourself going down there. Keep

your eyes on the road ahead and keep working like this. You are a

bit unstable here and there, you know that, but you had the frock

issue and this and that, I thought you did it really well. Well done.

Keep working hard! Away you go! Fabulous. You beautiful lady.

Wardrobe malfunction. I nearly strangled myself and Brendan like

this. I know. That aside, it was fabulous. Whilst we are talking

about frocks, a big shout out to the costume department. Today's

show... Couldn't have said it better myself. Craig said that you

are beginning to look like an actress. You have never acted, you

are not an entertainer, how did you get into character? It's quite easy

isn't it when you are working with such a handsome young man here. Pay

you later, pay you later... A great teacher. And Brendan, do you think

she's got more to give, our Victoria? I know she has. Without

the frock malfunctions, that could have been a very, very strong

contender, but week-by-week we'll grow. She has what it takes, I'm

loving working with her, it's all good.

The scores are in. Practising the 22 for Victoria and Brendan.

Brendan's got a very tight face. Yes. If that's what they think,

I'll take that, thank you very much. OK. Can we do it again, please?

you want to see Victoria's name in lights, call from your mobile or

landline. The lines open after everybody's danced. That was

fabulous that, back to Bruce. Next up is Michael Vaughan and his

partner, Natalie Lowe. Right, Michael told me people keep taking

the Mickey out of him for being a cricketer. I said, how's that, and

he said don't you start. Even Len is laughing, you are in a good mood

Len! He's laughing at anything, especially everything I say. Here

they are in training. Oh, my God, you are like a wild

goose. I thought I did all right. That's the basic fact. I didn't

think it was that bad. Eventually, I wouldn't mind a few good comments.

At the minute, I'm getting battered. This week, it's Strictly does

Hollywood and I've gone for a Sheffield classic, the Full Monty.

Welcome to Sheffield, a City on the move. Thanks to modern industry,

efficient trams and this twinkle toes. It's not all hard work for

the people of Steel City. Michael here is learning a new hobby. By

jof, look at that plucky little fellow. -- by jove. A dad trying to

learn how to dance. Because we were bottom of the leaderboard, we've

decided that we are going to Dancing the cha-cha-cha, Michael

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 185 seconds

You nearly went over. What about that! The overt was over. What did

you order for breakfast? The full works. Hot it was not,

unfortunately. Timing issues of throughout. It was awkward all the

way through. You when landing like a felled tree. I suspect Latin is

not going to be your dance. Better than last week. I think he is.

APPLAUSE Michael, I was so much happier with your performance

because you were happier on the dancefloor. Even though the timing

was apt, if your top and lower body were now at least connected. -- was

out, Europe top and lower body were now at least connected. What about

men? There was an odd moment where you lost a bit of timing. Virtually

all our celebrities do. On the forward and backward steps, you are

straightening your leg. I thought you had good hip action. Last week

was Boreham wet and this week was quali Wedd. Well done! -- Hollywood.

I was disappointed. What we your hips doing? You have got to listen

to the music. -- what weren't your hips doing? You'd go completely off.

Nissan to the music. -- listen to the music. We're all loved it.

Very nearly bowled over at the end. I nearly went flying on that chair.

It could have been the best bet. D'Arcy said you always give it your

all. Are you enjoying it? -- Darcey Bussell said. I am trying to learn

and putting the hours in. I just have to go for it. They are better

hips and last week. Can we see them? The scores are in. Craig

Revel Horwood... Darcey Bussell... Better than last week. What is next

week? The Quickstep. Will you be here to do that? I would love to be.

If you want to see more, call from a mobile phone or from the land

line when the phone lines open later on in the show. This is

Saturday night's main feature and it is only just getting started.

Bring me some sweets! Thank you. Our next couple is Jerry Hall and

Anton du Beke. When she starred in the stage version of The Graduate'

Jerry played an older woman who seduced a younger man. This might

surprise you, but I'd love to be seduced by an older woman. But I

don't think there's any left. That is not funny her! Here they are in

training. I was elated about Saturday night. The dance went

really well but the judges were harsh. You are to vertical. Lift

and separate. I did agree with them. I have taken that criticism on

board for the next dance. I do not think that is fair. We did not make

any mistakes. None at all. We are going to give them off next week.

Welcome. Action! We will be doing that Quickstep to Mrs Robinson from

the Graduate. Jerry Hall played her. She is -- corrupted into decadent

ways by an older, experienced woman. I want to concentrate on my posture.

I have to give an Oscar winning performance ought it is curtains

for me, baby! -- or it is curtains. Dancing the quickstep, Jerry Hall

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 185 seconds

Come back out here. Would you mind? I have never seen anything like it.

For goodness sake! That was your best dance to date. Thank you.

What are you doing in knows cricket trousers? The Quickstep suits you.

Maybe because you like telling the story of Mrs Robinson. You must not

tell us you are coming to the end of the dance. Do not fade. You

started so well and by the end you faded. In any performance, you must

not fade. I liked it. I liked it a lot. So much better. I have got to

say, we have a problem. It was a bit Upstairs Downstairs. Oh, no!

There are still a few problems Upstairs. Downstairs, you are quite

I am talking about her of that work. -- footwork. I will move on now.

The whole thing would have been better behind the screen. Oh, no!

Pastor, posture, posture. There was an improvement from last week, you

have got to say that. I am glad you think so. We all thought it was

better than last week. That is all Come on, jerry! You are Hollywood.

You must feel at home with all this blitz and glamour. It is one for

eight a T, so vote for me. -- HRT. Next week we will be dancing to

Paint It Black. These schools are Craig Revel Horwood... Darcey

Bussell... Len Goodman... Bruno I do not think that is right. I

think that should have been more. There was a definite improvement.

If Jerry's the starlet you want in a starring role - call from your

mobile, or landline. But don't you pick up the phone until we let you

know that the lines are open. Still loads more to come, including Nicky

Byrne looking smoking hot, and Lisa getting a little Hanky Panky.

Naughty, the lot of you! I've read at the wrong number of bomb Michael

and Natalie. -- I read out the wrong number for Michael and

Sid, since you started on Strictly, we have seen the fun side of him.

Is he going to get on with the mean and moody tango? Here they are in

training. Saturday was great. Loved it.

Enjoyed every minute of it. went wrong a little bit, but he

really went for it. Didn't drop me on my face, which is good. It's

supposed to be from Kingston in Jamaica, but it was more like

Kingston upon Thames. Lods of hips, baby. All the comments were very

fair. We need to work harder. I would love to do it again. Front...

This week is Strictly does Hollywood and I'll be dancing to

rock of ages, Here I Go Again. I've got to be a rock star this week, so

I'm going to have as much fun as I can with it. No. All right, one of

those. Get ready to rock! Show me. I think he's embarrassed at doing

the steps. I think I'm a good teacher but... What I need him to

do is perform in a rehearsal studio so he's used to the performance all

the time. Saturday, I can't improve him, it's too late. Dance to a rock

star, you can do it. As long as Sid can become a rock star like Freddie

Mercury, Gene Simmons, we should be fine. What do you think? Yeah. No

problem. Dancing the tango from the movie Rock of Ages, Sid Owen and

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 185 seconds

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE What about those two?!

The rocker. What have you done to him?-On. Len, start off with you?

don't know about Rock of Ages, you took blooming ages to get started.

Once you did, it wasn't too bad, but there was no sharpness, no

aggression in the dance, too smooth, Sid, too smooth.

BOO. Bruno? I don't know if I was watching Les Dawson trying to be

van Halen in AC/DC. Len is right, it was a lot of head banging but

once you got into the tango it wasn't good. Craig? Stompy, clompy,

clumpy. Don't take it to heart. Thank you, Bruce. Just get up the

stairs as quick as you can. Off you APPLAUSE

Rock'n'roll, Sid. The judges' comments aside, how did

it feel to act like a rock God? Well I enjoyed it. We did, it was

brilliant. You always have the Strictly smile in place, it's good.

I'm sorry. Emotional again? No. tears here today. Time now to

17. Your lowest score to date. I actually thought that was the most

original tango we have ever seen on Strictly Come Dancing. Rock'n'roll.

I don't know what the judges were looking at. Ten out of ten for

entertainment. These two want to be back next week, right? Yes. Yes,

please. We want them back. Tomorrow night, another couple will be

leaving the show whether we like it or not. To vote for your favourites

when the lines open, pick up the phone. Back to Bruce.

It was me! Right... I thought Bruce, who's that?!

Next, it's Kimberley Walsh and her partner... APPLAUSE

Very popular lady, yes. And her partner Pasha Kovalev. They are

dancing to a song from Summer Stock, a marvellous musical starring the

one and only Gene Kelly. What a dancer he was that man. I actually

watched the film this afternoon with the judges. Bruno side Gene

Kelly was brilliant. Len said he was a dancing dazzling star, Darcey

said he was a superb move and Craig gave him a six. Gene Kelly a six, I

ask you. Here they are in training. Our dance on Saturday night was

probably the worst that we've ever done it. Len's comments were

actually fair. I didn't expect him to be quite so angry though.

thought it was limp. I didn't feel there was enough conviction. Our

expectations are huge for you. You've got to to better than that,

girl. We did it so much better earlier on. I was so disappointed

in myself really because I knew that I hadn't done the best that I

could have. Kimberley got a bit emotional after the dance and I

think it's only because she's a perfectionist. It was really good.

It wasn't. It was really good. The song we've got this week is very

fitting. It's a classic Hollywood Judy Garland song and I absolutely

love her. It's forget your troubles, come on get happy and I think

that's what I should do, to be honest. The steps are not that

difficult actually. I'm still here, I can see what you are saying.

hard not to be happy. As soon as the music starts, it's such an

uplifting song that you immediately feel like bum bum... Will you make

me happy, it will make me happy if she does well with the quickstep. A

surprise to make her happy. I know you are feeling low this week but

here is something to cheer you up. I'm happy so I hope the judges will

be too on Saturday night. Dancing the quickstep from the

movie Summer Stock, Kimberley Walsh and Pasha Kovalev.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 185 seconds

What about this?! Oh, lovely. Kimberley and Pasha.

Look at this. Look at them. It's all for you. That was lovely,

really lovely. What a great tempo and the way you did that. Bruno?

Now we're in business, Kimberley. Beauty, glamour, light, lovely. You

really captured the spirit of the song, your frame much better, the

body contact much better. You've shown that you can be wonderful.

Now, we are going straight to Darcey because we are pushed for

time if I go to three. Beautiful light steps. Also in the top hold,

you have really work on the that, your core, I can see you've work on

the that. Always such a pleasure to watch. You really are.

Now then, Len is smiling but... Good news from Goodman. I liked it.

Pasha, tell me what's happening, she's getting too far over on the

right side and then her arm's too straight. You understand what I'm

saying but you've done it well. understand. Tell her again though.

Liked it a lot, such an improvement. Kimberley. When she smiles that

beautiful smile, everybody gets happy. Thank you. Happier than last

week? Yeah, yeah. It was fun. you breathe? I really did enjoy it.

Not sure what happened out there but I enjoyed it. Out-of-body. Is

Pasha like the other girls from Girls Aloud? He should be. He's got

Wow. Come on! You've got to be happy with that. Your highest score

so far. Well deserved. Has Kimberley's quickstep made you

happy? If so, show your appreciation by calling from your

mobile or landline. In tomorrow's show, two of our Hollywood stars

will go head-to-head in the dance- off. Who is it going to be? Back to

Bruce. Thank you, Tess. The next couple is

Denise Van Outen and her partner James jor doon -- James Jordan. Now

then, Denise has been performing since she was 12 years old. She

said, Bruce, showbiz is in my blood. I said I know what you mean,

showbiz used to be in my blood, nowadays it's Coe and cod liver oil.

Awww... Here they are in training. -- Coe coacoa and cod liver oil.

see Len singing along to tuty fruity and it made me laugh.

were shaking it. That was my cup of tea! Fab-u-lous. I've been doing

this show seven years and I've never had a fabulous from Craig!

Woo-hoo, come on! This week, we are going to be doing

the foxtrot to a Toy Story song, you've got a friend in me. I love

Toy Story, so I'm really excited to be dancing to that. We work really,

really hard, but we play hard too. I thought, we've got to get in the

spirit of the dance and play lots of games. Posture! Compression. I

don't understand. Definitely I found a friend in Denise. I think

on Saturday night, Denise is going to be amazing... Put a sock in it,

James. Dancing the foxtrot from the movie Toy Story, Denise Van Outen

and James Jordan. Lovely. Absolutely lovely! Great

posture. Great control. Beautifully Craig is right. You can dance.

Beautiful, clean turns. Watched that you do not get too comfortable.

You look relaxed when you perform. I am really nervous. It does not

show. A very elegant couple you were. This is a complete contrast

to last week but never the less good. I am giving you a burble pat

on the back. -- verbal. Nice You are made for each other. You

set off the story so well. Then you got into that Fox trot. It was

smooth and gliding. -- foxtrot. I thought it was great. You should be

very happy. Away you go. Up the Did you ever think that Darcey

Bussell would call you elegant? in a million years. Nor did I.

Outstanding praise from all the judges. Is it adding to the

pressure and expectation? Definitely. I was really nervous.

So was I. James, your most wooden performance to date. Get it? It

looked good on paper. The judges' scores are in, let's have a look.

Brilliant scores put up same as last week. Really well done. --

brilliant scores. I am glad they commented on your foot work. So, if

Denise and James are your screen idols, then call from your mobile

or your landline. The lines won't open until everyone has danced,

though, so move away from those phones. Who will be a Hollywood hit

and he will be a box office flop? Our next couple is Colin Salmon and

Kristina Rihanoff. They're doing the Tango to a James Bond theme.

But Colin has told me he's only doing a couple of lifts. I said,

only a couple of lifts? Why?' He said, it's obvious. If you're

dancing to a James Bond theme You Only Lift Twice. Here they are in

training. I thought last Saturday went well. We got to the end of the

Bols and I did not fall over. I think regenerated the right amount

of romance. I was pleased. -- we generated. I felt like A Little

Princess next to Colin. Yorke double hand flicking is quite

vexatious. -- your double hand. that is the only thing they can

point out, I am proud of him. He is doing an outstanding job. This week,

we have been dancing to a James Bond theme but I have been shooting

for a film in Vancouver. Colin is away filming but that is no excuse.

He should be dancing at all times. I am on a mission to find him and

make him dance. I think I have found him. This is a good place to

do something. I think my mission is accomplished. It was so worthwhile

to travel from London to bank uber. I am so glad she tracked me down. -

- Bank uber. Dancing the Argentine Tango, Colin Salmon and Kristina

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 185 seconds

Well done. Lovely atmosphere to that. I was so hoping you were

going to give us the spy treatment in your dancing. The only thing I

would have liked to have seen a much dirtier spy. The Argentine

tango is a dirty street dance. have never been there! Your

partnering was very impressive. She was throwing herself at you - legs

going everywhere. Take more risks next time. I was more shaken than

stirred. You acted it out but you are an actor. Take away the stuff

on the table and the lifts, for me, there was not enough Argentine

tango going on. You did OK. You can do character. You do that very well.

You can take anything they'd throw at you. She threw everything she

had. That distracts. It would be nice to see you do a bit more

dancing. As an actor, you can sell it. Something to think about.

was full of authority and dominance, which I absolutely love. I thought

the lifts were spectacular. You really went for it. They were not

easy. Fantastic work will start what about that! -- fantastic work.

That was smoking hot. Was it mission accomplished? Yes. Given

the time we had to direct, I am thrilled with that. 10 hours for

the whole dance. That is not a lot. Darcey Bussell said you can bring

more. What more have you got to That was your strongest score to

date. If you think Colin and Kristina's Argentine Tango was

oscar-worthy, then call from a Please don't pick up the phone

Dancing the Quickstep, Richard APPLAUSE Well done, you.

Well done Richard and Erin. You are very generous, thank you.

Quite an experience. I do apologise for interrupting you. It won't get

a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame but it was bright and lively.

A little mincey occasionally in the footwork. I don't know whether to

rinse it or mince it! Flow, my old sausage, flow. I liked it!

I thought you were very good. I real - really meant that. Bruno?

was expecting the full Dolly Parton wig and everything but it was good.

You listened to the boss, you worked very, very hard, a lot of

improvement, your frame and footwork was better. Without

histrionic and just enough comedy at the beginning to set it up so I

thought it was very good. Craig? didn't mind it actually. Was that

you?! Nimble footwork, well done. You've only got Darcey to go and I

think she's in a kind mood. Darcey? Richard, your best dance so far.

Thank you. You were fast. When you get tired, make sure your weight

doesn't go back on the heels, but I really like the style that you gave

to that quickstep. Very nice. you go. Well done, Erin as well.

Erin and Richard. What?!

Tricky Dicky's worked hard this week! She kept saying, the

quickstep's all about being out in front. And I said Dolly's got a

higher centre of gravity there so she has an advantage. That must

have boosted your confidence after last week? You always fall on the

night and this crowd is phenomenal, you go out there and we have a

phrase in Scotland where I grew up "Give it loudy". And then some?

and I'm going to have to give Anton his spanks back. I'm wearing

Brendan's shoes. They worked. Must be lucky shoes. Twinkle toes.

25. Highest score so far. It is your highest to date. If you want

to stop Richard from ending up on the cutting room floor, call from

your mobile or landline. We have been there before!

Well done... When the phone lines open, call, and not a moment before.

Danny will channel Dorothy and Louis will be Dirty Dancing.

Getting hats thrown at me. Thank you so much. Back to you, Bruce.

Our next couple is Dani Harmer and her partner Vincent Simone.

Now, Dani is such a big fan of mine, she really is. Do you know, she

even has a mug at home with my face on it. I said, do you use it much

and she said oh, yes, the dog won't drink out of anything else. Sorry,

I laughed at that before the end. I thought it was so funny. To

myself... Anyway, here they are in training.

Saturday night was absolutely awesome. I had so much fun. Finally

Dani came out of her shell. little munch kin, you were full on

and flat out and I liked it. Well done. I wasn't completely fond of

the dismount. You went splat, darling. Yes, yes, yes, yes! I got

a seven! That's all I wanted throughout the whole series and I

managed to get it on the second week. This week I'm so excited. One

of my favourite films of all-time is Wizard of Oz and I get to dance

to Somewhere Over The Rainbow. way you walk... I'm in pain. Dani's

been struggling with dance shoes. Sorry. I hate my ballroom shoes,

they absolutely kill my feet. need a man to do it for you. I'll

call him for you. You need dance shoes otherwise you won't be able

to move all the musnls the little feet. I'm -- muscles in the little

feet. I'm sure Dorothy wore trainers. The only thing that can

save me now is if someone turned up with some magic Ruby slippers.

Magic slippers for you. I could click my heels together, there's

no-one like Vincent. And I would be a brilliant dancer. This is the

best you've ever danced. Must be the Ruby slippers. Dancing the fox

MUSIC: # Somewhere Over The CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Aw look at that. That was so beautiful!

Betty been a good girl? Very good. A little treat from uncle Bruce.

Yes, just a little treat. Don't have my fingers off, OK. She's

beautiful. Gore Gorgeous. The dog stopped the applause from really

going up. Never work with dogs. Bruno, start us off. Friends of

Dorothy are going to be so pleased. You know that takes me back. It was

so pretty. It was. You remember we were saying about linking the lines

when you did the moves, you did it so beautifully, flawlessly moving

romantic, sweet. I really, really loved it. Thank you. Yay. Craig,

start us off? I absolutely loved the routine, thought you did a

wonderful job, Vincent, choreographing that. Your turns are

clean, you have a habit still looking down to the throor when you

are spotting, you need to put the eyes up -- floor. When you do a

certain move rbgs you need to extend. The unfolding, yes, keep

stretching it. I agree. Darcey? do always surprise me, Dani. There

was control in your gliding, it was smooth and you didn't forget that

beautiful necklace in your hold. So yes, keep working hard because you

are doing wonders every week coming out. Well, my little munch kin.

Take the red shoes, walk down that yellow brick road, straight into

next week, because that was great! Look at the little red shoes. I'll

tell you, the dog did spoil the applause. Take her off now. Betty.

Away you go. Thank you so much. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

What a dog! A little Toto or Betty. Can we keep

him? Not a friend of yours, Vincent. Just jealous that I'm better

looking. He wants the spotlight. Darcey said that you are doing

wonders every week. How is that for you? Just the best thing to have

that come from Darcey, honestly, but this man is a genius. I think

Vincent would be the first to agree with you. How are the Ruby slippers

to dance in? They're amazing. I'm hoping to keep them because they to

actually feel like slippers compared to my old ones. Beautiful.

29. That is your highest score so far. Flawless foxtrot. Betty, you

are a good luck charm. No place like home, but Dani doesn't want to

two there yet, do you? Definitely not. To keep her out of the dance-

off, call from your mobile or Back to Bruce.

Dani, don't worry about cleaning up after the dog. I've already done it.

Urgh... Pass it along. Not in the audience! Right, our next couple is

Lisa Riley and her partner, Robin Windsor.

LAUGHTER Lisa's had a great start to the

series, but can she keep it up? I think she will. Anyway, here they

are in training. It really was fairytale when that

clock struck 2011 and it went boing, I really felt like Cinderella at

the ball. I love the focus in your eyes, creates a wonderful mood.

got to lead. At the end of the day, I'm an actress, I want to be a

leading lady. Sometimes I need a bit of a forceful hand. I thought

you danced with great dexterity, I thought it was light. Never been

called light in my life, ever. I thought what they said was

absolutely right, I'll take everything on board and we'll work

on it won't we? We will. Action. Our movie is Dick Tracy and we are

doing the jive to Hanky Panky. and fabulous, just like she is.

I've never danced this fast in my life. I love being cheeky, it's my

personality, it's what I'm about. Being an actress, she can pull off

any character that I give her. Madonna in the movie was the gang

str's moll. As Bruno said last week about me leading, I am a bit of a

boss. I'll dance with you, but only if you let me lead. -- gangster's

moll. This Saturday night I know what I've got to do. I've got to

get on that dance floor and bring out my cheeky and my sexy side.

watching you. I cannot tell you. You really sell a number. That was

brilliant. Well done! You never fail to entertain. That was

whole room to its feet. Absolutely marvellous! Who would have thought

Dingle was a dancer? Off you go, Cheeky, cheated -- cheeky girl! How

much fun did you have? It was brilliant. Craig it is being so

kind. It is search a workout. You are more out of breath. Is this the

fittest you have ever be done? never thought my thighs would ever

be on British television. These That was a nice score. What do you

think? Do you think that Our next couple is Nicky Byrne and

Over them last two weeks, he has received for some harsh comments

from the judges. Tonight he is doing the Quickstep. Could it be

third time lucky? Here they're up in training. It has gone from bad

to worse. Others waiting for the applause to stop. -- I was waiting.

I should be jumping off the stage. It is like an out-of-body

experience. There was a point where I had to grab his face. I sought a

wild man. His eyes were going all over the place. It was too much boy

band dancing and not enough to cha- cha. I do not blame the judges will

be giving us low scores. -- Chad cha-cha. I thought, it was horrible.

I wanted to do it again. It is my fault. It is Hollywood week and we

are doing a scene from The Mask. Just as well Karen is a good dancer

because she is a terrible make-up artist. Going out is not an option.

I feel like I have not given properly yet. It feels like a fight.

improvement. I am so glad. Well, last week there was no life and

this week it is full of life. You never straighten your legs. Unique

nice job! -- nice job! You need that mask every day. Maybe it it

means you can perform and deliver. You did a very good Quickstep. You

went for it and that is good to see. Thank you. We will see what Craig

MUSIC: # (I've Had) the Time of My APPLAUSE

What about it!? What a performance. That was lovely. That was lovely.

Stunning. Absolutely stunning. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Hold on, hold on just a minute. Do you know, when I said it was going

to be something from Dirty Dancing, a lady over there said, is she

going to do the jump. The jump, I ask you. Len? You did the lifts

excellently well, very, very good. But it lacked a bit of attack. I'm

only telling him the truth about what I feel. Listen, it's only my

opinion, you know. It was a little bit timid, I thought it lacked a

bit of attack. I would have liked you to come out and given them a

really oily dance. What is the matter with these people?! What's

the matter with them?! I thought you were smooth. I thought it was

very smooth, very well placed, very much the way it was done in the

film. You had the iconic lift done wonderfully. And you can stretch

those legs. I mean, you were like Concorde taking off! I think you're

great. I thought you were going to do the jump from there. Nearly.

Craig? Constained, -- contained, simmering, rotating, I loved the

hip action. Fantastic. Brilliant. What a partnership you are.

Darcey, darling? Yes, thank you, Louis, I saw a spark of emotion lit

between you and Flavia. I would like you to get out to a nightclub

and free up. The salsa has to be freer. I'll take you tonight!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE I can see why it's so controlled

because to do a lift like that right at the end is so hard, I know

that. It was beautifully done. Amazing. Shut up! Stop it, stop it!

We'll put you back in your basket. They loved it, I thought it was

tremendous. Be so proud. Go on, off APPLAUSE

Sum evering. Darcey or Bruno? There we are go. Nobody puts baby

in the corner. Louis, is your inner performer coming out now? I think

so. Definitely. I felt a bit more calmer and in theme, so yes, we had

fun. I can't believe you'd never seen Dirty Dancing. Still hasn't.

Come on! Come on! He promised he would. You are on Strictly Come

Dancing, you've got to get with the programme. I'm going to buy him a

copy. How hard was it getting that lift right? Tricky. We practised

everywhere possible. We even had some special design worked on on

her skirt so she didn't slip. pulled that iconic lift off to

perfection. That was fabulous. In I don't know where Len's looking!
