:00:40. > :00:44.stepped into the Tower! Oh, my goodness. Welcome to Blackpool.
:00:45. > :00:48.Isn't it amazing? It's actually really beautiful. A little bit of
:00:49. > :00:55.heaven. This is what it's all about. Wow. My goodness, it's amazing. I
:00:56. > :01:01.feel like we have to live up to it. I think we can now. Have you seen
:01:02. > :01:04.George and Giovanni? Are you sure this is the quickest way to Tower
:01:05. > :01:10.Ballroom? Yes. Really? CHEERING AND
:01:11. > :02:20.APPLAUSE Anton! This is far too cold, you
:02:21. > :02:36.need to take it back immediately. This is madness, man.
:02:37. > :02:44.# I've got bills # I gotta pay
:02:45. > :02:47.# So I will work, work, work every day

:05:17. > :05:26.Live from Blackpool, the home of ballroom, this is Strictly Come
:05:27. > :05:47.Dancing! Please welcome your hosts; Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman!
:05:48. > :05:56.Welcome live from the beautiful Tower Ballroom!
:05:57. > :05:59.Huge thank you to our entire Strictly cast for that amazing
:06:00. > :06:03.opening number. This week we have a double weekend of dance!
:06:04. > :06:08.Are you ready, Blackpool? CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
:06:09. > :06:11.Excellent answer. Last week Jeremy Vine became the seventh star to
:06:12. > :06:15.leave the competition after losing out in the Tansoff to Jamelia. We
:06:16. > :06:19.are left with eight celebrities who've all earned the honour of
:06:20. > :06:23.performing in one of the most prestigious dance venues in the
:06:24. > :06:30.world. It's truly majestic so these four should feel right at home.
:06:31. > :06:33.Please welcome the judges. Len Goodman, Darcey Bussell and
:06:34. > :06:50.Bruno Tonioli! CHEERING AND
:06:51. > :06:55.APPLAUSE The judges, everyone. Hold on a
:06:56. > :06:57.second, we seem to be missing someone. Has anyone seen Craig? Oh,
:06:58. > :07:44.yes. You didn't want Jeremy's brilliant
:07:45. > :07:48.drop to go to waste? No, I kid not. I made full and efficient use of it,
:07:49. > :07:58.darling. Let's ask Jeremy what he thought of that, shall we? Jeremy?
:07:59. > :08:11.Sweet. Craig, everybody! CHEERING AND
:08:12. > :08:14.APPLAUSE Our celebrities are backstage all desperate to dance
:08:15. > :08:24.here so let's not make them wait any longer. Please welcome our Strictly
:08:25. > :08:44.stars! Kellie Bright with Kevin Clifton.
:08:45. > :09:01.Anita Rani. Katie Derham. Georgia May Foote. Jamelia. Peter Andre.
:09:02. > :09:18.Finally, from the Wanted, Jay McGinness.
:09:19. > :09:23.Welcome couples. Just look at our Blackpool eight all dressed up to
:09:24. > :09:27.the nines and hoping for tens. It's a huge achievement to get this far,
:09:28. > :09:31.but sadly for one couple, this weekend will be the end of their
:09:32. > :09:36.journey. So tonight, your votes are more
:09:37. > :09:39.important than ever. They'll be added to the judges' scores to
:09:40. > :09:42.decide which two couples will face each other in the dance-off
:09:43. > :09:45.tomorrow. Opening the Blackpool special tonight is Jay McGinness and
:09:46. > :09:58.his partner Aliona Vilani. They are starting off with a salsa,
:09:59. > :10:01.it's a real party dance, we have got the music, the costumes and all we
:10:02. > :10:08.need now are the guests, hundreds of them. Blackpool, ready to party?
:10:09. > :10:23.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE It's a yes! Last Saturday
:10:24. > :10:28.was going smoothly, I thought, I had a hiccup, then the rest of the dance
:10:29. > :10:32.I blanked. So sorry. It wasn't a good evening for you. As soon as you
:10:33. > :10:37.start to dance, your face goes dead, you've got to do something about
:10:38. > :10:40.that. Being third from the bottom of the leaderboard and being left until
:10:41. > :10:43.the last before you are called through is definitely a horrible
:10:44. > :10:49.feeling. I don't want to be there again. This week Jay and I are
:10:50. > :10:52.dancing a salsa. Now, that has to be focussing on Jay getting into the
:10:53. > :10:56.character of the dance and so hopefully his body will be feeling
:10:57. > :11:01.the vibe and that will help the face. Facial expression-wise, the
:11:02. > :11:06.judges will be looking to make sure I'm happy. That's it, good. Keeping
:11:07. > :11:11.in with the theme of the salsa and the South American vibe, we are
:11:12. > :11:15.going to be in sunny Blackpool. Because the Tower Ballroom is such a
:11:16. > :11:20.massive room, our energy has to be that much bigger when we perform.
:11:21. > :11:24.Smiles for everyone. Yes. No-one's going home without a smile. That's
:11:25. > :11:29.right. Very excited to see the ballroom. Can't wait to see what it
:11:30. > :11:33.looks like on the inside. Wow, this is incredible. I think the
:11:34. > :11:36.pressure's definitely on to match the level of the venue that you're
:11:37. > :11:41.at. I just hope I can bring all the energy that I need to fill the space
:11:42. > :11:49.and hopefully the judges, Craig in particular, are happy with my face.
:11:50. > :12:39.Dancing the salsa, Jay McGuinness and Aliona Vilani.
:12:40. > :13:46.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
:13:47. > :13:58.Thank you. How about that for an audience'
:13:59. > :14:04.reaction. I saw that smile light up your face, how did it feel? Really
:14:05. > :14:11.nice. You look beautiful. Bless you, you're so sweet. I want you to take
:14:12. > :14:19.it all in, soak up the atmosphere. A warm northern welcome to our band!
:14:20. > :14:24.There they go. Brilliant job. Len, did they bring
:14:25. > :14:28.Cuba to Blackpool? I brought everything. There's no end to your
:14:29. > :14:34.talent, I didn't know you could make Blackpool rock! Just in the
:14:35. > :14:38.atmosphere, yes! You really got the party started and I'll tell you,
:14:39. > :14:42.I've been waiting since week three's jive to see anything as good and
:14:43. > :14:50.you've just shown it to me. Well done!
:14:51. > :15:00.Did they make you want to get up and get down? Oh, yes, get up and get
:15:01. > :15:06.down, stick it in Top Gear and loins on fire! Don't you feel a heatwave
:15:07. > :15:11.starting? Tonight is going to be hot and you started it very well. One
:15:12. > :15:18.thing that I think is remarkable, you blended with the professionals
:15:19. > :15:23.so well, it was indistinguishable. That last lift though, there was a
:15:24. > :15:37.slight moment I felt fearful. Maybe it was my angle. Did you do your
:15:38. > :15:41.back in? No. It was great. Craig, did that make you smile? I
:15:42. > :15:46.thought the choreography was very good. I loved your hip action
:15:47. > :15:51.throughout. It had a wonderful fluidity. I loved the way you were
:15:52. > :15:54.spotting through the Gypsy terms. That was brilliant. I adored the
:15:55. > :16:00.list. That was dangerous and brilliant. Finally, we are seeing
:16:01. > :16:07.some facial expressions. CHEERING
:16:08. > :16:17.Finally! Darcey? For me you warmed up the ballroom but you also warmed
:16:18. > :16:20.me up, thank you very much. What was brilliant you were flirting with
:16:21. > :16:29.Aliona from the beginning and you kept it to the end. The boys have
:16:30. > :16:36.said it, your natural hip action. It was fantastic.
:16:37. > :16:52.The judges loved it, we loved it. Go and join Claudia.
:16:53. > :16:59.They said just as good as the jive, they had not seen anything as good
:17:00. > :17:07.as that on week three, dangerous lifts, you must be over the moon?
:17:08. > :17:15.Yes. Sorry, I feel very good. You always apologise to me afterwards.
:17:16. > :17:18.The comments were amazing. For those watching at home, we talk about
:17:19. > :17:23.Blackpool and say how much we love it. Aliona, can you put it into
:17:24. > :17:30.words, the atmosphere in the ballroom? To ten times more because
:17:31. > :17:52.of the audience. Good luck, the scores are in!
:17:53. > :18:00.You must be really happy with that. Yes, I had so much fun, that was
:18:01. > :18:03.brilliant. If you liked that routine and I can
:18:04. > :18:19.confirm that Blackpool has been twinned with Havana then call...
:18:20. > :18:23.It is time for the terms and conditions. I'm thinking Cuba,
:18:24. > :18:50.Carnival and Congo. -- conga. I am getting in. Our next couple is
:18:51. > :18:53.Jamelia and her partner Tristan MacManus.
:18:54. > :18:57.CHEERING Tonight, they are doing the
:18:58. > :19:02.quickstep and they will be playing the part of a pair of dolls dancing
:19:03. > :19:08.in front of a joint dolls house. It is a great routine and I am sure
:19:09. > :19:12.they are going to raise the roof. On Saturday night, I was really
:19:13. > :19:21.happy with how it went. The dry was excellent. Tristan and I were in the
:19:22. > :19:27.dance-off. After the fourth one, it does take its toll. It is horrible.
:19:28. > :19:33.Blackpool for me is huge milestone. It is a great achievement.
:19:34. > :19:39.This week we are dancing the quickstep. It is a great dance. I
:19:40. > :19:42.have a little surprise for you. It will be a fun day out.
:19:43. > :19:46.For the start of our dance we are going to be dolls in boxes. I
:19:47. > :19:51.thought it would be a great idea to bring you here and get some
:19:52. > :19:55.inspiration from the wax figures. That looks exactly like Britney
:19:56. > :20:01.Spears. How ballooned would it be to have a waxwork made a view? Funnily
:20:02. > :20:05.enough, I have organised it to see if people will believe you are an
:20:06. > :20:19.actual wax figure. We will put it to the test to see if she can be
:20:20. > :20:24.convincing dole. She looked so real! She can 100% be convincing as a
:20:25. > :20:31.doll. Now it is time to get back into the
:20:32. > :20:36.rehearsal. For the first part of the routine we are per dolls inboxes.
:20:37. > :20:41.Going to the waxworks helped. I am definitely looking forward to
:20:42. > :20:42.getting into character. Dancing the quickstep, Jamelia and
:20:43. > :22:46.Tristan MacManus. Jamelia and chest in! -- Tristan.
:22:47. > :22:55.Our beautiful dancing dolls. You need double the stamina to quickstep
:22:56. > :23:02.across the floor. Bruno? I believe the new totally! I tell you, that
:23:03. > :23:08.was a quickstep of great content and beautiful packaging. Look at you all
:23:09. > :23:15.told up. So nice. I can really see you worked a lot on your footwork
:23:16. > :23:19.and it really showed. But now, now that you get the lower regions
:23:20. > :23:23.sorted, still there are some problems with the frame. You have it
:23:24. > :23:31.but then you tend to lose it when you get into the runs. Nothing here
:23:32. > :23:35.moves, my darling. Nothing moves. You should be absolutely still. But
:23:36. > :23:45.much, much better on the footwork. Well done. Thank you. Craig, can
:23:46. > :23:51.they avoid a fifth dance-off? No, they can't really. I agree that you
:23:52. > :23:56.need to have more stillness in your top lines. The underarm turns are
:23:57. > :24:07.still problematic. You lost body contact throughout the whole thing.
:24:08. > :24:12.Booing. Oh, be quiet, honestly! Your ballroom has come a long way.
:24:13. > :24:20.That is what we like to hear. Darcey? Jamelia, well done. You came
:24:21. > :24:25.out with the intent and energy and you travelled. There was not one
:24:26. > :24:30.mistake. Very important. There is a combination of steps which Tristan
:24:31. > :24:35.gave you was very difficult and you kept it going from the beginning to
:24:36. > :24:37.the end. You should be very proud. It is your best ballroom, very
:24:38. > :24:45.impressive. CHEERING
:24:46. > :24:49.Then, would you agree? I am totally a believer. For all the
:24:50. > :24:54.non-believers, you have got to look at the quickstep. You deserve 100%
:24:55. > :24:59.to be here in Blackpool. You are like one of the clowns out the
:25:00. > :25:06.front, you just keep rolling along. As for the quickstep, fantastic, a
:25:07. > :25:11.great job. It was fabulous! Your best ballroom, well done, my
:25:12. > :25:17.darling, off you go. Jamelia and Tristan!
:25:18. > :25:31.I know, your little face! At first, you were a bit like that and then
:25:32. > :25:39.they said your best ballroom, your brilliant, you deserve to be here.
:25:40. > :25:43.You wanted to get to Blackpool, did you enjoy it? I'm really glad that
:25:44. > :25:52.I'm here and I got to share it with everyone. You loved the quickstep? I
:25:53. > :25:57.absolutely loved it. I think I read myself off when it came to ballroom
:25:58. > :26:20.but then I loved it. And performing in Blackpool! OK, the scores are in.
:26:21. > :26:28.That is good! Are you going to cry? You can have a cry. If you thought
:26:29. > :26:39.that was a dolly good routine, please call...
:26:40. > :26:42.Still to come, Katy dances in feathers. It was something which
:26:43. > :27:00.tickled her fancy. Tests. Tess.
:27:01. > :27:09.Our next dances are Anita Rani and Gleb Savchenko. Everything we train
:27:10. > :27:15.for, it all came together on Saturday night. Blackpool is calling
:27:16. > :27:24.your name! Blackpool is a milestone. I have never performed in
:27:25. > :27:32.the Tower ballroom. I'm so excited and so ecstatic. I'm taking Gleb to
:27:33. > :27:41.Blackpool. It is week nine and we are doing the paso doble. Did you go
:27:42. > :27:45.there a lot? It has a special place in my heart. Welcome to sunny
:27:46. > :27:51.Blackpool. First things first, fish and chips. Tell me what you think.
:27:52. > :27:55.Good? I underestimated just how good it would feel to be in Blackpool. We
:27:56. > :28:05.are at the pleasure Beach. I have been coming here since I was tiny.
:28:06. > :28:10.Happy memories! I have this photo. This is exactly the same. When he
:28:11. > :28:15.brought out that photograph of me as a tiny tot in Blackpool, I cannot
:28:16. > :28:20.believe this is where I have got to. There it is, the Tower ballroom. It
:28:21. > :28:25.is incredible. I have so many childhood memories of this place and
:28:26. > :28:26.it feels really special. I'm going to have another amazing memory in
:28:27. > :30:35.there. APPLAUSE
:30:36. > :30:44.They're on their feet in Blackpool. Incredible. What a reaction from the
:30:45. > :31:17.audience. Anita, you brought the ballroom to
:31:18. > :31:23.Blackpool, no doubt about that. Drama, character-driven. Total
:31:24. > :31:33.theatre, right up my street. Magnificent!
:31:34. > :31:40.APPLAUSE Darcey, they have consistently dominated throughout
:31:41. > :31:45.this competition. You know, it was forceful and you had the intent and
:31:46. > :31:53.it was actually beautifully classy, you know. The detail of your
:31:54. > :31:57.arm-ography. Even how you used your fingers to accentuate the style,
:31:58. > :32:01.that is so unusual with all that power you have. Very difficult to
:32:02. > :32:12.shine with the four large torsos around you, yes, but you did! You
:32:13. > :32:17.shone like oh, beautiful. You can't get more dramatic than that can you,
:32:18. > :32:24.Len, what did you think? Full of drama, you turned the ballroom into
:32:25. > :32:27.a Bullring, absolutely. Your arms were fantastic, it had mood, it had
:32:28. > :32:31.passion, it was fantastic. Well done.
:32:32. > :32:39.Bruno? One thing is for sure, this was not a Paso Doble for
:32:40. > :32:45.vegetarians! I never seen so much prime beef in such splendid display!
:32:46. > :32:49.And you handled it, darling, like really the mistress of the arena,
:32:50. > :32:53.you were commanding the proceeding, you were in the centre of the
:32:54. > :33:03.action, you really embodied the heart and soul of Spain! Ole!
:33:04. > :33:07.They loved it and so did we. That was phenomenal. Off you go. Adios,
:33:08. > :33:22.Anita and Gleb! How magical must that be for you,
:33:23. > :33:26.because we saw before your parents spent their honeymoon here and here
:33:27. > :33:30.they are tonight enjoying a second one. Yes, they are, hello mum and
:33:31. > :33:34.dad! Watching their little girl dance like that and get those
:33:35. > :33:37.comments, does it feel quite emotional? It really does,
:33:38. > :33:42.especially seeing them. This is my mum's dream and she said, it's just
:33:43. > :33:50.so much better seeing her daughter fulfilling it than if she was doing
:33:51. > :33:54.it herself. Amazing. I'm having the time of my life. I can't believe
:33:55. > :33:57.what we are doing together, Gleb, it's incredible, thank you, thank
:33:58. > :34:17.you. It was really wonderful to watch. The scores are in.
:34:18. > :34:27.37! Gleb, you must be unbelievably proud? I'm so proud, so proud, this
:34:28. > :34:34.is my favourite dance and to get a first 10. Huge congratulations.
:34:35. > :34:46.If you enjoyed Anita dancing with men in black sticky tape, call: You
:34:47. > :34:51.can vote online free of charge when the vote opens later. It was
:34:52. > :34:55.fantastic. I loved it, thank you. Coming up later, Georgia sits on a
:34:56. > :35:03.croissant, my mistake, it was a Crescent moon. You know what I mean.
:35:04. > :35:09.Easily done. Tess? Up next it's Katie Derham and her
:35:10. > :35:14.partner Anton Du Beke. Since the series began, Katie's had more ups
:35:15. > :35:18.and downs with the judges than the Big One, but this week she's hoping
:35:19. > :35:23.it won't be a bumpy ride for her American Smooth.
:35:24. > :35:27.Last Saturday was great. I decided I wasn't going to let nerves spoil my
:35:28. > :35:39.enjoyment of dancing on Strictly Come Dancing. Some say rumba, some
:35:40. > :35:45.say "roomba", I say fantastic! Thrilled you were able to pull it
:35:46. > :35:49.off in such a dramatic way. I was delighted for Katie. So we are doing
:35:50. > :35:54.the American Smooth to, ain't that a kick in the head. Top hat and cane
:35:55. > :35:58.naturally. It's Blackpool! Because our routine is Fred and Ginger, it
:35:59. > :36:04.would be lovely for Erin to come down because we have been doing that
:36:05. > :36:08.number for years. Hello... Today I met Erin who's been dancing with
:36:09. > :36:13.Anton for 20 years. It was a thrill to be able to get some really good
:36:14. > :36:17.tips for the American Smooth. You have to drape from here all the way
:36:18. > :36:22.around there. There you go. Personal advice from her about this dance.
:36:23. > :36:25.The American Smooth is a classy, sophisticated, elegant dance, which
:36:26. > :36:30.you are. I know that Anton really wants you to enjoy this experience
:36:31. > :36:35.and he cares about you guys as a partnership and he thinks you're
:36:36. > :36:41.great. It was lovely to see Erin, she's got a baby at home and she
:36:42. > :36:49.spared the time. I feel really inspired.
:36:50. > :37:02.Dancing the American Smooth, cater Derham. -- Katie Derham and Anton Du
:37:03. > :37:09.Beke. MUSIC:
:37:10. > :38:38.Ain't that a Kick in the Head... CHEERING AND
:38:39. > :39:01.APPLAUSE That went down a storm.
:39:02. > :39:05.Come on over. The perfect routine for the home of ballroom. Beautiful
:39:06. > :39:12.and elegant, just like you, Katie. Thank you. Did you get a kick out of
:39:13. > :39:19.that, Darcey? Katie, that was exquisite, it really was. You had
:39:20. > :39:25.such lure, film star-style from beginning to end again.
:39:26. > :39:29.APPLAUSE I think you have really found and understood, I would only
:39:30. > :39:32.say there's slight things in the transitions, if you could find a
:39:33. > :39:36.still moment, just to smooth those out because that's just where you
:39:37. > :39:39.get a little jittery and trying to find your spot again just as you
:39:40. > :39:47.change, but plenty of wow factor, thank you.
:39:48. > :39:51.APPLAUSE Thank you. Something tells me our head ballroom boy loved every
:39:52. > :39:56.minute of that. I saw his face, am I right, Len? Well, it was better than
:39:57. > :40:00.a kick in the head and you didn't need a kick up theer... Backside.
:40:01. > :40:05.You merely came out and performed it. It was a fitting dance for this
:40:06. > :40:10.wonderful ballroom. Elegant, glamour and sophistication. Well done!
:40:11. > :40:15.It's your best dance, no question. Oh, thank you.
:40:16. > :40:19.Your best dance. Bruno, was it smooth enough for you? What an
:40:20. > :40:21.amazing welcome to the Temple of Ballroom.
:40:22. > :40:26.APPLAUSE I tell you, Blackpool brings the
:40:27. > :40:30.best out of people because stylistically, it was impeccable, it
:40:31. > :40:35.was like a tribute to the great dancing Queens of the Hollywood
:40:36. > :40:42.golden days, a bit of Ginger Rogers, Rita hey worth, just amazing, and in
:40:43. > :40:52.hold, you are absolutely fantastic. You drove her around beautifully and
:40:53. > :40:56.you look like a dream. Thank you. Craig, finish us off, my darling? It
:40:57. > :41:01.had the elegance we expect and we know that is your forte actually,
:41:02. > :41:05.but sometimes out of the lifts you looked a little lost. You must know
:41:06. > :41:10.exactly what direction that you are going to go for. There was a wobble
:41:11. > :41:14.over here before that turning lift and when you came out of that lift
:41:15. > :41:17.and went into the section with the boys, there was a big old mix-up of
:41:18. > :41:23.what direction you were meant to go in when you got back to centre. If
:41:24. > :41:28.you can sort those out darling, absolutely gorgeous!
:41:29. > :41:30.APPLAUSE Gorgeous, the pair of you. Off you
:41:31. > :41:50.go, you smoothies. Katie and Anton! They loved it. Your face while Craig
:41:51. > :41:54.was speaking was like... I was waiting to hear what he said. Did
:41:55. > :41:58.you like that? Loved it. The most wonderful dance. To perform this
:41:59. > :42:03.dance here with Anton who does know Blackpool pretty well... And the
:42:04. > :42:09.ballroom. Indeed. And I imagine sneaks in the hat? I comes with me
:42:10. > :42:13.wherever I go. Makes me look sort of younger don't you think. Already
:42:14. > :42:34.reduced my age by months. At least! Scores are in.
:42:35. > :42:48.APPLAUSE Your highest score. My goodness.
:42:49. > :42:52.Even Fuad up all your other scores... From other years.
:42:53. > :43:01.Congratulations. Delighted, thank you.
:43:02. > :43:04.That six is up side down! APPLAUSE
:43:05. > :43:20.If you want to see Katie and Anton through to next week, call: You can
:43:21. > :43:24.vote online when the votes open. Your vote can mean the difference
:43:25. > :43:29.between who stays or goes. Would you prefer to stay or go? Stay in
:43:30. > :43:35.Blackpool, can we come again? We have all of this still to come.
:43:36. > :43:38.A bigger ballroom. That's going to be quite a shock to the system that
:43:39. > :43:42.we are going to fly down this ballroom floor. The jive's
:43:43. > :43:48.fast-paced which I love, but there's a lot of footwork. It's going to
:43:49. > :43:51.take me some time. To be able to do a Viennese waltz around the
:43:52. > :43:57.Blackpool Tower ballroom sin credible.
:43:58. > :44:01.There's loads of lifts, up side down, up and around. So much fun.
:44:02. > :44:09.I cannot wait to see all of that! Why have we got all these male
:44:10. > :44:17.dancers lined up? Good question. I want to try out my Kiss Me Quick
:44:18. > :44:25.hat. I think it might be broken! That'll
:44:26. > :44:34.be it Claud. Gleb, I'm going to fix it. Our next couple is Peter Andre
:44:35. > :44:40.and Janet Manrara. They are doing a jive set in a 1960ses TV studio and
:44:41. > :44:43.it will be just like TVs studio instead of black-and-white, we'll
:44:44. > :44:47.have colour, instead of standard we'll have HD and instead of Skippy,
:44:48. > :44:57.the kangaroo, we'll have Peter Andre!
:44:58. > :45:03.I would never have expected my second highest score of the season
:45:04. > :45:08.on a Viennese waltz. It was wonderful. We made Blackpool. The
:45:09. > :45:13.joy on Janette's face made me even more happy. We macro I cannot wait
:45:14. > :45:18.to dance on that floor. This week we're doing a drive and it is 60s
:45:19. > :45:23.theme inspired. Wouldn't it be amazing if we could travel back in
:45:24. > :45:32.time and visit the 60s? Funny you should say that, I built us a time
:45:33. > :45:37.machine. It is impossible... Today we have special guests from 2015, it
:45:38. > :45:51.is only Peter and Janette! I love the hair. This is a great
:45:52. > :46:05.competition. What are you dancing to? River deep, Mountain high. It is
:46:06. > :46:09.a classic. It is almost brand-new. I am loving it, loving it.
:46:10. > :46:15.We would love to see some of the routine.
:46:16. > :46:38.Dancing the jive, Peter Andre and Janette Manrara!
:46:39. > :48:29.Come on over if you have any energy left!
:48:30. > :48:36.No wonder the 60s were swinging! Len, would you tune in for that?
:48:37. > :48:41.Yes, of course I would. It is always lovely to see you dance, Peter.
:48:42. > :48:46.Lights, camera and plenty of action! I must say, I am out of breath
:48:47. > :48:51.watching it. To be honest, it was not your finest. Your hands kept
:48:52. > :49:00.going very wide and especially on the pivot. I'm starting to sound
:49:01. > :49:07.like it is terrible and it wasn't. All in all, action packed and full
:49:08. > :49:13.on, well done! Bruno, what did you think? It easy as, energy,
:49:14. > :49:19.performance level, top of the Pops! But I say, you have to be careful, I
:49:20. > :49:24.tell you before, because of all that energy ended his ears, you tend to
:49:25. > :49:30.lose the style of the dance. Kicks and flicks in the jive. That's what
:49:31. > :49:34.we are looking at. Then you tend to get your weight backwards because
:49:35. > :49:39.you are doing the top thing which we love, but then you lose in the jive,
:49:40. > :49:43.my darling. I told you before, you have to combine the two. Don't lose
:49:44. > :49:51.all that wonderful energy that it has to be recognisable as the jive
:49:52. > :49:58.as well. Yes! Gray, we have had some strong jive is the series. How did
:49:59. > :50:03.it compare? -- Craig. I'm afraid it fell to the bottom. It was
:50:04. > :50:08.flat-footed, heavy and the kicks looked very, very odd. There was a
:50:09. > :50:16.lack of attraction in all of them. Your weight was in the wrong place
:50:17. > :50:18.sometimes in the ball changes. It was quite strange. But I have to say
:50:19. > :50:27.your commitment and your energy to dance is the nominal.
:50:28. > :50:32.The commitment, Darcey? It is fast and furious. I have to say, that may
:50:33. > :50:36.the bounce of this dance floor and ballroom might have ricocheted. Your
:50:37. > :50:40.weight did get really far back but you were in your element when you on
:50:41. > :50:46.the stairs. There were images of Bruneau dancing up there. The truth
:50:47. > :50:53.is, I got some of it wrong, but I did have a great time. We had a
:50:54. > :50:57.ball, didn't we? In the ballroom. You got this ballroom bouncing. The
:50:58. > :51:04.flaw was bouncing, so were they and so were we, ladies and gentlemen?
:51:05. > :51:16.Thank you, judges. Off you go to see Claudia, Peter and Janette!
:51:17. > :51:23.You found the jive quite difficult? Yes, but it is great because we are
:51:24. > :51:28.learning new techniques. I will get my breath back in a minute! You had
:51:29. > :51:34.enormous fun. We loved it here. Last week you were joint second, the week
:51:35. > :51:39.before you were top, then is it hard getting comments like that from the
:51:40. > :51:44.judges? No. We had a blast. We had the time of our lives in this
:51:45. > :51:50.beautiful ballroom. It is amazing, so it is fine. And I have had weeks
:51:51. > :51:58.when I have been so good and you cannot expect always have a great
:51:59. > :52:16.week, so this is good for me. A great dance. The scores are in.
:52:17. > :52:25.Such different scores. Do you know what I love about you? Anyone else
:52:26. > :52:30.who had just got a 6, bet you were like, that is fine, the man has an
:52:31. > :52:38.opinion. If you like Peter and Janette, called...
:52:39. > :52:46.Still to come later, five Helen Georges. If you find the real one,
:52:47. > :52:57.you win a coconut. That is a fact. Tess. Performing
:52:58. > :53:01.next is Georgia May Foote and her partner Giovanni Pernice. Lastly,
:53:02. > :53:08.Georgia got the highest score of the series. 39 for that unforgettable
:53:09. > :53:15.routine. Can she do it again tonight? Let's ask the audience.
:53:16. > :53:21.Ladies and gentlemen, what you? Yes! She is dancing and American smooth.
:53:22. > :53:27.Let's hope our Northern Star shines brighter than ever. Come on,
:53:28. > :53:33.Georgia! Last Saturday night was amazing. I
:53:34. > :53:38.could not believe it! Darcey was so excited. That is how it makes me
:53:39. > :53:56.feel! This week we're doing a Viennese
:53:57. > :53:57.waltz American smooth to I Kay-macro have paracrine nothing by Whitney
:53:58. > :54:16.Houston. Now we are dancing he will not stop.
:54:17. > :54:23.To be honest, I have no idea why Georgia does not like my singing. It
:54:24. > :54:30.is a bit too much so I am going to take into some karaoke to get it out
:54:31. > :54:39.of his system once and for all. I was born to be a singer. Not a
:54:40. > :54:47.dance, come on! I think personally, coming here today is a belt in idea.
:54:48. > :54:50.Now it is time to get back to rehearsals and hope we may let on
:54:51. > :54:54.Saturday. Dancing the American smooth, Georgia
:54:55. > :55:26.May Foote and Giovanni Pernice. MUSIC: I Have Nothing
:55:27. > :56:55.by Whitney Houston How about that, ladies and
:56:56. > :57:03.gentlemen? Twinkle, twinkle, Little Star! That was beautiful. Bruneau,
:57:04. > :57:12.where you are over the moon with that? You, heavenly creature! I
:57:13. > :57:27.think I am experiencing, as we all do, pure ballroom Blitz! -- bliss.
:57:28. > :57:32.Your arms were like water. It was fantastic, my dear. There was a
:57:33. > :57:40.small miss timing in the lift but I am going to wash over that. It was
:57:41. > :57:48.my dress. The same thing happened to me the other night, my darling. It
:57:49. > :57:57.was fantastic! Fantastic. Parsley, last week you gave Georgia ten. How
:57:58. > :58:00.does this we compare? You are so graceful, I will have to call you
:58:01. > :58:08.graceful Georgia. You are gliding through this competition, well done!
:58:09. > :58:14.Len, last week she topped the Leader Board, can she do the same this
:58:15. > :58:17.week? With this storm last night and you're dancing tonight, that is
:58:18. > :58:29.twice I have been blown away in Blackpool. That was a brilliant,
:58:30. > :58:35.brilliant dance! Thank you, judges. They wowed us all again. You have
:58:36. > :58:39.done it again. New go! Go and see Claudia. Well done, Georgia and
:58:40. > :58:58.Giovanni. # Love me, love me, if I don't
:58:59. > :59:06.have... We have all loved your singing. To
:59:07. > :59:13.be here is a dream country. And your grandma is here? Yes, Granma! And my
:59:14. > :59:18.dad! And I believe those are your great-grandmother's earrings? Yes,
:59:19. > :59:20.she used to do some ballroom dancing and her brooch. I am honoured to
:59:21. > :59:56.wear it today. The scores are in. time in Blackpool. Last week you
:59:57. > :00:01.told me it would be a bit like Sicily. It's even better than that.
:00:02. > :00:03.Yes. You don't get tens there. If that routine made your night, please
:00:04. > :00:15.call: You can vote for free online when
:00:16. > :00:22.the vote opens later. I think I'm going to cry... People do that,
:00:23. > :00:27.people do that. Still to come, Kellie dances with a
:00:28. > :00:34.stationery man who works in an office, he doesn't just stand there,
:00:35. > :00:37.you see what I did there. Tess. Our next couple is Helen George and her
:00:38. > :00:48.partner Aljaz Skorjanec. Over the seen e series, it's become
:00:49. > :00:53.clear these two have great chemistry. Aljaz has been saying,
:00:54. > :00:59.what can be better than having Helen George as a partner, well, Aljaz,
:01:00. > :01:03.how about a few Helens? I loved last Saturday, it was
:01:04. > :01:08.brilliant getting to do a dance that was aggressive and fierce. I'm
:01:09. > :01:11.enormously proud of Helen. She delivered an incredible performance.
:01:12. > :01:19.Such a great tango, well done both of you. Loved it. Really pleased to
:01:20. > :01:23.be second, it's a really tough competition. We are going to
:01:24. > :01:28.Blackpool. Brilliant. It's amazing. This week we are doing the
:01:29. > :01:31.charleston, definitely the most difficult choreography we have done.
:01:32. > :01:35.It's difficult this week. I know we are going to have some backing
:01:36. > :01:39.dancers this week and the idea is, they are meant to look exactly like
:01:40. > :01:45.me so I thought I would invite some people along. It's a great idea.
:01:46. > :01:54.Brilliant. Aljaz, meet Helen, Helen and Helen. I have my work cut out
:01:55. > :02:03.with one Helen so I have no idea what I'm goes ... Going to do with
:02:04. > :02:08.four. You need to be precise... Helen three, please focus. That's
:02:09. > :02:19.three. I'm one. This isn't going well at all. Can I please get a car
:02:20. > :02:29.to Blackpool. Argh... Go, go, drive, drive, Blackpool. Poor Aljaz, I
:02:30. > :02:30.think we might have broken him. Dancing the charleston, Helen George
:02:31. > :02:54.and Aljaz Skorjanec. MUSIC:
:02:55. > :04:20.Anything Goes... CHEERING AND
:04:21. > :04:42.APPLAUSE I'm surprised you have any energy
:04:43. > :04:48.left after that. You are the real Helen, yes. I'm the real Helen.
:04:49. > :04:52.Thank you so much to our wonderful dancers because they worked so hard
:04:53. > :04:56.to get that routine. Brilliant routine. There might have been loads
:04:57. > :05:02.of Helens, but only one set of scores. Let's talk to Craig, you
:05:03. > :05:07.know about charleston which is fun. That lacks a bit of quirk for me.
:05:08. > :05:10.Needs to be messed up a bit. A little too controlled. This dance
:05:11. > :05:14.should go mad and wild and you can look ugly in it, you know, it's one
:05:15. > :05:20.of the dances that you can actually get away with that. Darcey doesn't
:05:21. > :05:24.agree. For production values, you are an absolutely brilliant dancer.
:05:25. > :05:29.Are you saluting that army of Helens? For me, I disagree with what
:05:30. > :05:35.he said. It was one classy charleston. You created the coin
:05:36. > :05:38.addition with your lines with precision, mirroring each other, the
:05:39. > :05:47.sequence during the wings and everything. Loved it. Thank you,
:05:48. > :05:51.Darcey. Did you, Len? Yes, I did. Full of vim and vigour. A tad too
:05:52. > :05:57.much side by side. I would have liked a little more content in hold
:05:58. > :05:59.or together, but other than that, as always, a wonderful polished
:06:00. > :06:05.performance. Thanks, Len.
:06:06. > :06:09.Bruno? Sassy, glam, glitzy, it was like watching one of those
:06:10. > :06:16.show-stopping numbers on Broadway and you really perform it perfectly
:06:17. > :06:21.I think. You've got the style, you were so clean and precise. From my
:06:22. > :06:28.angle did you go on the wrong foot? No, I tripped... No, no, no, no...
:06:29. > :06:33....En Don't apologise. That move all of a sudden. Listen, don't worry
:06:34. > :06:39.because I tell you you will go a long way, you are a brilliant,
:06:40. > :06:44.brilliant dancer. Thank you. Precise and polished. He loved it. Go and
:06:45. > :06:46.sea the one and only Claudia. Helen and Aljaz.
:06:47. > :06:58.APPLAUSE Well done. You enjoyed it didn't
:06:59. > :07:01.you? I loved it. It was so nice to go out there and do a completely
:07:02. > :07:03.different style and try and forget about the steps for a second and
:07:04. > :07:36.just perform it. The scores are in. Are you relieved? Yes, I didn't want
:07:37. > :07:46.any sixes. If you enjoyed this dance, please call:
:07:47. > :07:51.Remember, you can find us on Facebook, on Twitter, on the
:07:52. > :07:59.website. Tess.
:08:00. > :08:00.Time for our final couple, Kellie Bright and her partner Kevin
:08:01. > :08:11.Clifton. They are doing a quickstep set in an
:08:12. > :08:16.office to a Dolly Parton classic, never mind Nine To Five, it's a
:08:17. > :08:19.routine they have been working night and day on and they are hoping it
:08:20. > :08:22.will get them promotion to the top of the leaderboard.
:08:23. > :08:34.Last Saturday, it was a bit overwhelming. When Craig gave us
:08:35. > :08:43.that nine... Nine! I felt very emotional. It was a great feeling.
:08:44. > :08:48.This week we have got quickstep. Yes, we do. So I thought maybe you
:08:49. > :08:54.would like to see people doing it in Blackpool. Love it! This is what
:08:55. > :09:00.I've done all my life. The Championships last weekend. I would
:09:01. > :09:04.love to go and see that. So Kevin takes Kellie to the Winter Gardens
:09:05. > :09:09.to give her a taste of where he started out. I could tell Kevin was
:09:10. > :09:12.moved by it. One of the most important and special places and it
:09:13. > :09:17.brings back loads of memories for me. I won four British Championships
:09:18. > :09:22.here but haven't been here since the day I finished competing. Wow.
:09:23. > :09:26.Watching all those couples move around the dance floor at the same
:09:27. > :09:31.time going so fast, looking so effortless, it was amazing, it was
:09:32. > :09:35.incredible to watch. We are going off training now to use what we have
:09:36. > :09:40.seen today and hopefully we can make our quickstep the best it can be.
:09:41. > :09:50.Dancing the quickstep, Kellie Bright and Kevin Clifton.
:09:51. > :11:22.MUSIC Sfmplt Nine To Five...
:11:23. > :11:38.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
:11:39. > :11:50.That's what I call an office routine! Look at that! Soak it all
:11:51. > :11:55.up. Let us see what the bosses thought. Darcey? You made that look
:11:56. > :12:02.like one easy day at work, darling, that was fabulous. Seamlessly danced
:12:03. > :12:07.that. For me, it was a wonderful dance to finish a wonderful night.
:12:08. > :12:15.Oh, thank you. Thank you. If you can file that under B for brilliant...
:12:16. > :12:20.That's all. Another outstanding performance in a night of dancing
:12:21. > :12:25.the light, well done! Thank you, Bruno. Do you agree, was that a
:12:26. > :12:34.fitting finale for Blackpool, Craig? Tight, clean, I loved it.
:12:35. > :12:36.Thank you judges. You go and join the office party with Claudia. Great
:12:37. > :12:51.job, Kellie and Kevin. What a way to close it. What a way
:12:52. > :12:54.to close it. Honestly, mesmerizing. Ready to see your scores? Yes.
