:00:16. > :00:26.Last weekend Wembley played host to the biggest ever Strictly on record.
:00:26. > :00:27.
:00:27. > :00:37.Over 6,000 people in the arena. It was bolder, louder, faster and
:00:37. > :00:41.
:00:41. > :00:44.higher than ever before! But our cuddly cannonball's explosive
:00:44. > :00:48.entrance blasted him out of the ballroom for good. This week our
:00:48. > :00:57.stars have been on their best behaviour in front of her Royal
:00:57. > :01:05.Highness the Duchess of Cornwall. Tonight, our magnificent 7 are
:01:05. > :01:12.coming out all guns blazing. They're tackling not one, but...
:01:12. > :01:18.Two dances this week. Oh my God, two. I am scared of it. It's back,
:01:18. > :01:24.more brutal than after, the Strictly swingathon. So, sharpen
:01:24. > :01:34.those elbows, and get ready for some ballroom Archie bargy. This is
:01:34. > :02:10.
:02:10. > :02:18.Strictly Come Dancing 2011. Bring Live from Television Centre, please
:02:18. > :02:28.welcome your hosts, Sir Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly.
:02:28. > :02:36.
:02:36. > :02:46.I have got her! Thank you. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. What a
:02:46. > :02:48.
:02:48. > :02:53.lovely crowd. Aren't they just! Thank you so much. Just a minute!
:02:53. > :02:56.And sit down, I didn't tell you to stand up, sit down! In case people
:02:56. > :03:00.get the wrong impression. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and
:03:00. > :03:08.children, welcome to Strictly Come Dancing. It's nice to see you, to
:03:08. > :03:11.see you... AUDIENCE: Mice! It's nice to see you, Bruce. Wasn't
:03:11. > :03:17.Wembley great? I loved it, after the show hundreds of people came
:03:17. > :03:24.down on to the floor and lined up for our autographs, judges, dancers,
:03:24. > :03:27.us. No, it was fantastic. One little lady came up and she said
:03:27. > :03:32.can I have your autograph, Sir Bruce. I said, of course, my dear.
:03:32. > :03:42.Are you a big fan? She said, no, I wanted to get home and the queue
:03:42. > :03:45.
:03:45. > :03:49.for you was the shortest. LAUGHTER. Last week Wembley was a wonderful
:03:49. > :03:53.away day but now our seven wonders of the ballroom world are back here
:03:53. > :03:58.on home soil where it matters most. Yes, the competition is getting
:03:58. > :04:03.serious. All our couples are now contenders for the glitterball
:04:03. > :04:09.trophy. Tonight they're dancing not once, but twice. Not only do invest
:04:09. > :04:13.a face or ballroom or Latin routine, they've have to face the chaos of
:04:13. > :04:19.the swingathon. All the couples are dancing to impress at the same time.
:04:19. > :04:29.It could be carnage. I love a bit of carnage. Now it's time to meet
:04:29. > :04:29.
:04:29. > :05:18.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:05:19. > :05:23.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Look at them! There they are. I
:05:23. > :05:28.just would like to say you have all bonded so well overed weeks and you
:05:28. > :05:33.are all such good friends now. And I just know there will be sadness
:05:33. > :05:37.in your hearts as you trample over each other to get to the final! I
:05:37. > :05:41.just know it's going to happen, you can see it in their eyes. Tonight,
:05:41. > :05:44.as always, our judges will be scoring and the couples will be
:05:44. > :05:49.ranked on the leaderboard. Those scores will then be combined with
:05:49. > :05:54.your votes and, sadly, one couple's ballroom bubble will burst. If you
:05:54. > :06:02.are a digital viewer you can press the red button for live commentary.
:06:02. > :06:10.We have Karen Hardy and this week with her Sara Cox. Hello! Our first
:06:10. > :06:18.couple is Anita Dobson and her partner Brendan. APPLAUSE.
:06:19. > :06:26.There they are. Brendan is back. This week Anita is dancing with
:06:26. > :06:30.Brendan because Robin has an injury. She can do this because Brendan is
:06:30. > :06:34.not on stand-by to dance with Holly any more, because Artem is better.
:06:34. > :06:39.Although the week before Brendan did dance with Holly which he could
:06:40. > :06:47.do because he wasn't dancing with Lulu. Although next week if Anita
:06:47. > :06:53.gets through she will be back dancing with Robin. And Brendan
:06:53. > :06:59.will be dancing with is anyone's guess. I am worn out! Me too.
:06:59. > :07:09.hope that's cleared that up. Any questions? No questions. I know you
:07:09. > :07:14.
:07:14. > :07:21.have! You hope it might be you. Seeing 6,000 people so pleased to
:07:21. > :07:30.see us all there was just joyful. I just thought you will never get
:07:30. > :07:37.this opportunity again. You come out and you give it 100%. Bundles
:07:37. > :07:41.of energy and creative party atmosphere. I have played Wembley,
:07:41. > :07:47.I have danced with this fantastic dancer. That's the jewel in the
:07:47. > :07:52.Crown. The competition's getting really
:07:52. > :07:57.serious now and Robin's hurt his foot. I am here in Charing Cross
:07:57. > :08:05.Hospital for my severe foot infection. I don't know what I am
:08:05. > :08:11.going to do. Hello. What! Yes, of course I will.
:08:12. > :08:15.Whenever duty calls. # I need a hero...
:08:15. > :08:19.It is I, Sir Brendan. Care to dance? It's been a very exciting
:08:19. > :08:25.week. First of all, I have a new partner and we all had a very
:08:25. > :08:29.special visit from her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cornwall.
:08:29. > :08:36.Nice to see you again. It's been a while. You are a huge example, if I
:08:36. > :08:40.may say so, for our generation. watched some of us rehears and
:08:40. > :08:44.kindly awarded my efforts a nine, but she did give everyone a nine.
:08:44. > :08:52.Tonight I am going to give the cha- cha my very best for Robin. Get
:08:52. > :09:02.well soon, please. Dancing the cha-cha-cha, Anita
:09:02. > :09:02.
:09:02. > :10:47.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:10:47. > :10:52.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Well done you, fantastic! How about
:10:52. > :10:58.it! Look, Anita. Look what you have done to this crowd. And Brendan,
:10:58. > :11:07.what a start. Absolutely marvellous. A great start. OK, sit yourselves
:11:07. > :11:12.down. I wouldn't mind but she only went in for a service. Now then...
:11:12. > :11:19.Cheeky! While you get your breath back, it's a good time to welcome
:11:19. > :11:23.our fabulous singers, Dave Arch and his wonderful, wonderful orchestra.
:11:24. > :11:29.APPLAUSE. Lovely, and not forgetting our judges, come on!
:11:29. > :11:33.APPLAUSE. And after the show last week you
:11:33. > :11:39.might have seen it on the results show, Len was dancing with Craig.
:11:39. > :11:49.Did you see that? Len, it was very funny. And Craig, you need to work
:11:49. > :11:50.
:11:50. > :11:54.on your heel leads and your arm placement, darling. Darling, arm
:11:54. > :11:59.placement all over the shop. What did you think of this? Let me first
:11:59. > :12:03.of all commend you on coming to the aid of a damsel in distress. Not
:12:03. > :12:07.only that, I thought you did a great rue tune, it was full of --
:12:07. > :12:11.routine. It was full of content. The cha-cha is a difficult chance
:12:11. > :12:15.and -- dance and you came ut out and showed your personality. There
:12:16. > :12:20.was a bit you were solo, you are a great actress and it came out in
:12:20. > :12:27.this dance. Straighten your legs a bit more and you will get more hip
:12:27. > :12:30.action. Wish I had tried that years ago as well! Alesha? I have similar
:12:30. > :12:35.issues with this dance to what I had last week. It was a little bit
:12:35. > :12:39.messy in places. I am still not sure if you are entirely in body,
:12:39. > :12:44.and the dance through your body. A lot is in your face and is it did
:12:44. > :12:48.lack a little bit of tension, but it was cute, pleasant. Len is right
:12:48. > :12:51.you coped really well. The partner change hasn't tpaebgtd you --
:12:51. > :13:00.affected you either. I commend you for that. Overall, you have done a
:13:00. > :13:04.very good job. Good point. To dance with someone new. Bruno? Anita, the
:13:04. > :13:08.Uptown Girl doesn't mind a bit of grease! There's still plenty of
:13:08. > :13:13.fuel in the tank. It was bright, lively, great variety of steps.
:13:13. > :13:19.Plenty of content. The chemistry with Brendan, Brendan goes with
:13:19. > :13:24.everything! It's like parmesan, tastes good anywhere. You stretch
:13:24. > :13:32.the back of the leg and then you will get a bit more precision but I
:13:32. > :13:35.really enjoyed it. Well done. Thank you. Now then, Craig? For me it
:13:35. > :13:39.lacked pressure on the balls to the floor, therefore the leg
:13:39. > :13:44.straightening would have helped. Len is absolutely right. There was
:13:44. > :13:51.a lack of sharpness, I am afraid in your finishes, which is unfortunate.
:13:51. > :13:54.Also, there was no true dynamic to it. For me, that was what was
:13:54. > :14:04.missing. You have fantastic turns, though. They are absolutely
:14:04. > :14:13.brilliant. APPLAUSE. You were dynamic to all of us. You were,
:14:13. > :14:23.well done again. You are getting to be irreplacable!
:14:23. > :14:27.APPLAUSE. Come on, my little darling. Are you
:14:27. > :14:32.happy Brendan came to your rescue? I am, it's been an amazing week.
:14:32. > :14:36.Thank you so much. My pleasure, doing it for you and Robin. How is
:14:36. > :14:40.Robin doing? He sounded much better when I spoke to him last and he
:14:40. > :14:42.said it's frustrating being at home and in the being here. I bet it is.
:14:42. > :14:48.Bruno said plenty of fuel in the tank. You are going to need that
:14:48. > :14:51.later, what are the tactics for the swingathon? Anything goes. Least of
:14:51. > :14:56.all stamina, because these guys are going to be having to watch out,
:14:56. > :15:06.isn't that right?! Keep the routine going, boys and girls. The scores
:15:06. > :15:22.
:15:22. > :15:28.30. Now, a message from Robin, he says I am so overwhelmingly proud
:15:28. > :15:32.of Anita, that was fabulous. It's so hard being this side of the TV.
:15:32. > :15:38.Come back soon! We all wish you a speedy recovery, Robin. Thank you
:15:38. > :15:44.very much. If you want to dial the number call: The lines open later
:15:44. > :15:47.if you want Anita to get VIP tickets through to next Saturday.
:15:47. > :15:53.Please don't call until lines are open, if you do your vote won't
:15:53. > :15:56.count and you may be charged. The couple with the lowest scores and
:15:56. > :16:00.votes will leave the competition. We have seven stars left, they're
:16:00. > :16:06.all magnificent, but who will be going ye-ha tomorrow night? Over to
:16:06. > :16:14.you, Bruce. Thank you, Tess! For our next couple, Holly Valance and
:16:14. > :16:18.her partner Artem. APPLAUSE. Now then, last week Holly was in the
:16:18. > :16:22.bottom two. I said, are you going to be able to come back fighting?
:16:22. > :16:32.She said, of course I am. I am an Australian, Bruce. I said no, Holly,
:16:32. > :16:34.
:16:34. > :16:37.you are an Australian Sheila. LAUGHTER. It even made Craig laugh!
:16:38. > :16:46.An Australian Bruce is a man. I would have thought she would have
:16:46. > :16:50.known that. Here they are in The energy that comes with dancing
:16:50. > :16:55.in a place like Wembley, you can't really describe it. I wish we could
:16:55. > :16:59.perform to this lot every week. times you are thrilling and at
:16:59. > :17:02.times you are maddening! It's getting frustrating hearing the
:17:02. > :17:07.same comments each week. I think I am too relaxed about things.
:17:07. > :17:17.Getting into the bottom two it made for an exciting night. I thought I
:17:17. > :17:21.was going out, but I got saved! Every week I get fairly similar
:17:21. > :17:31.critique. You got to go for it. Holly needs to get over trying to
:17:31. > :17:32.
:17:32. > :17:38.be safe. OK try full out this time. That was. I don't know why I can't
:17:38. > :17:48.let go. Until this one time in high school.
:17:48. > :17:58.Hi. Hey. Do you want to dance? way. Your dancing is too crazy. Not
:17:58. > :18:05.cool. That's why I struggle a bit sometimes. It's OK. Just let it go
:18:05. > :18:08.for the foxtrot. Holly is working really hard this week. Better, you
:18:08. > :18:15.did well. Think of that. I am hoping this is going to be the
:18:15. > :18:25.dance where the judges see me finally giving it all I got.
:18:25. > :18:25.
:18:25. > :19:58.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:19:59. > :20:08.Dancing the foxtrot, Holly Valance APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:20:08. > :20:13.Holly, Holly, come on, look at this! Enjoy it! Artem, how are you
:20:13. > :20:21.feeling, all right? Great. I tell you, great. Alesha, what did you
:20:21. > :20:25.think? Seductive foxtrot. I loved the beginning, I have to be honest
:20:25. > :20:31.when I heard this song I wasn't sure it would work work with this
:20:31. > :20:39.style, but it did, you totally owned it. Well done. Right, now
:20:39. > :20:48.then, Bruno? Holly! You sassy teaser. The beginning was like
:20:48. > :20:53.Gypsy Rose Lee. You did it. Then you pulled back, a bit distant and
:20:53. > :20:59.cold and you give the heat back on. Breathtaking, sexy, hot. Everything
:20:59. > :21:02.I wanted from you. That's the way to go. APPLAUSE. Absolutely. You
:21:02. > :21:10.didn't know you could be sophisticated, did you? She didn't
:21:10. > :21:14.know. Craig? I was extremely concerned when the music cracked on,
:21:14. > :21:20.I thought there's no way this is going to be a foxtrot. I thought it
:21:20. > :21:30.was an extremely detrimental track to pick or choose for it. But you
:21:30. > :21:30.
:21:30. > :21:36.know what, I thought it was fantastic! Well done. Yeah, you
:21:37. > :21:44.surprised us all then. Len, what did you think? Well, you know,
:21:44. > :21:48.there was a time I would go out and give it all, for me this is what -
:21:48. > :21:53.listen, the foxtrot you did was good, I liked it. It was nice and
:21:53. > :21:58.basic. But you see when you watch dancing, and I am not saying that I
:21:58. > :22:02.didn't like the dance, because I did, but your eyes are looking at
:22:02. > :22:07.one thing and your ears are taking in something else, because of the
:22:07. > :22:14.music. For me, it just disturbed me a little bit. I would have... Well,
:22:14. > :22:17.it did. I am a timewatch in a digital age, I guess. I would have
:22:17. > :22:24.preferred it if it had been a traditional foxtrot. However, what
:22:24. > :22:34.I saw of the foxtrot I liked. Well done. I don't know what that meant.
:22:34. > :22:39.
:22:39. > :22:44.It was wonderful. We loved it. Come on! APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:22:44. > :22:47.Scorching hot in red! Amazing. You owned it said Alesha. Did you feel
:22:47. > :22:50.you had a point to prove after last week? I just wanted to have more
:22:50. > :22:53.fun and let go and do all the things the judges have been telling
:22:53. > :23:00.me to do. I think we did. You took that advice and you ran with it.
:23:00. > :23:10.Yeah. Fantastic. That's what Craig said. Very impressed. The scores
:23:10. > :23:35.
:23:35. > :23:40.APPLAUSE. Hot score. Make a note of this number. They're saying go on
:23:40. > :23:46.Holly! We started with 14, we are down to seven, but who feels lucky
:23:46. > :23:55.tonight? Who is going to get your vote? Back to you, Bruce. Thank you.
:23:55. > :24:00.For our next couple, Alex Jones and her partner James. APPLAUSE.
:24:00. > :24:04.Lovely, lovely. Alex is desperate to get through to next week. I said
:24:04. > :24:08.is that because you want to be one step nearer the final? She said no,
:24:08. > :24:18.it will be my turn to dance with Brendan.
:24:18. > :24:21.
:24:21. > :24:25.Is that what you said? Here they Intense is probably the word to
:24:25. > :24:30.describe Wembley. Nerve-racking and the best experience all rolled into
:24:30. > :24:34.one. I remember being amazed at these comments that were sort of
:24:34. > :24:40.coming out of Craig's phoult. mouth. It was sharp, theatrical,
:24:40. > :24:43.all those wonderful things. When the nines started coming I
:24:43. > :24:46.literally thought I was going to pass out. To have a score like that,
:24:46. > :24:56.I mean, that's just something I never thought that we would achieve
:24:56. > :24:56.
:24:56. > :25:00.as a couple. Every week I am like can we do the
:25:00. > :25:04.Charleston. No, we can't. But this week we are doing the Charleston.
:25:04. > :25:13.We came in with with lots of confidence and then we started to
:25:13. > :25:16.teach Alex the dance. And it's... Yeah... Almost, almost. It looked
:25:16. > :25:20.awful, but you were almost right with the steps. The dream dance is
:25:20. > :25:29.turning into a bit of a nightmare. I know what I have done wrong there.
:25:29. > :25:31.It's like somebody's put a rocket up my bum. The hands are moving,
:25:31. > :25:37.the legs are moving at the same time, but in different directions.
:25:37. > :25:45.My body went this way and my hands that way. It's kind of like doing
:25:45. > :25:52.this. No, that. You know what I mean! That arm scares me. Last week
:25:52. > :26:02.we were top of the leaderboard, but this week, well, who knows?
:26:02. > :26:02.
:26:02. > :27:52.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:27:52. > :28:02.Dancing the Charleston, Alex Jones APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:28:02. > :28:09.Three standing ovations tonight! Look at it! How about you two, what
:28:09. > :28:19.a night. Three standing ovations we have had. Thank you. Well done,
:28:19. > :28:23.Alex and James. Bruno? It's Alex the funny girl! It had a good old
:28:23. > :28:27.sraudville feel. I love the goofiness you put in, the swing, up
:28:27. > :28:33.and down, legs in the air. A couple of things, you lost timing a couple
:28:33. > :28:38.of times. It has to be like scissors on the swivel. But so
:28:38. > :28:44.funny, it's great to see the funny side of you. It is lovely to see
:28:45. > :28:52.the funny side. Craig? Are we going to see the funny side of you?
:28:52. > :28:59.Never! No, darling. I felt you took a major step backwards tonight.
:28:59. > :29:02.no! I will tell you why, precision and finishes, lack of swivel when
:29:02. > :29:05.you needed it enormously. Not understanding the dance and the
:29:05. > :29:10.extreme nature that one has to go to in this dance, if, for instance,
:29:10. > :29:19.you are raising your shoulders it needs to be extreme. You know, the
:29:19. > :29:24.whole dance is about extreme. I just felt it was mediocre. Oh, no!
:29:24. > :29:27.Len, what what about you? I found it fun and entertaining. It was
:29:27. > :29:32.enjoyable to watch. There was a lot going on. They're right to a degree,
:29:32. > :29:36.it was lacking in the detail. Little things just needed to be
:29:36. > :29:44.crisper. But we all enjoyed watching it. It was good fun. Well
:29:44. > :29:47.done. It certainly was. Alesha is smiling. I thought it was quirky,
:29:47. > :29:50.sweet, really funny. I knew this dance would suit you. It was almost
:29:50. > :29:54.made for your personality. You two have developed such a great
:29:54. > :30:00.partnership and it shows. And I really look forward to seeing you
:30:00. > :30:10.dance every week. Good job, Alex. James, you are a team. Well done.
:30:10. > :30:12.
:30:12. > :30:16.Off you go. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. The Charleston is a dance you have
:30:16. > :30:22.wanted to do since day one, did you enjoy it? I did and I would love to
:30:22. > :30:27.do it again. We have had a fun week. Bruno loved the goofiness. Craig
:30:27. > :30:31.said major step backwards. That is harsh. Mediocre? Standing ovation
:30:31. > :30:34.in the studio. Exactly. At the end of the day, of course the judges
:30:34. > :30:39.are there, everyone else seems to be nice, it's just Craig to be
:30:39. > :30:49.honest with you. He needs to get a sense of humour. The scores are in
:30:49. > :31:05.
:31:05. > :31:09.now, so you might want to take that 29. And lots of sshh from Alex to
:31:09. > :31:12.James. I think it was better than that. This girl's never danced
:31:12. > :31:17.before, where she is today - that was a difficult routine. She told
:31:17. > :31:22.it and it was better than that score. What do you think? Jot down
:31:22. > :31:26.this number. Phone later if you enjoyed Alex's
:31:26. > :31:30.cheeky Charleston and you want her to be one of our our quart-
:31:30. > :31:34.finalists next week. Who will survive that infamous swingathon?
:31:34. > :31:42.It comes with a health warning, everybody on the floor at the same
:31:42. > :31:48.time. Beware of flying limbs. Robbie Savage's nose. Oh! Back to
:31:48. > :31:57.you, Bruce. What's going on up there tonight? Now our next couple,
:31:57. > :32:03.Robbie Savage, talking of him, and his partner, Ola. APPLAUSE.
:32:03. > :32:06.Robbie told me he's thinking of doing the BBC show Who Do You Think
:32:06. > :32:16.You Are. I said good idea, but why that show? He said I like the idea
:32:16. > :32:23.of a whole programme devoted to checking out my roots. LAUGHTER.
:32:23. > :32:32.That's funny, isn't it! I thought that was a good one. Here they are
:32:32. > :32:37.in training. # I am the one and only... I felt
:32:37. > :32:40.like Robbie Will ams -- Williams on Saturday night. You opened the show
:32:40. > :32:48.like it was your own rock concert. It was great entertainment and a
:32:48. > :32:58.great start to the show. I gave it absolutely everything. Shirt ripped
:32:58. > :32:59.
:32:59. > :33:06.apart, leapfrogs, Ola over my head. It was all wild and savage. It was
:33:06. > :33:15.entertaining, that's what people want. I delivered it. Next target:
:33:15. > :33:20.Blackpool. I love being on Strictly, but as my parents can't make it to
:33:20. > :33:26.the show, because my father is ill, we have decided to bring Strictly
:33:26. > :33:30.to my parents. Something's missing. Never in a million years did I
:33:30. > :33:40.think I would see him on Strictly Come Dancing, so I am totally over
:33:40. > :33:50.
:33:50. > :33:54.the moon. Ten. I was a bit of a Now you know where I get my bad
:33:54. > :34:04.dancing from! He doesn't get any movement at all from me. I get it
:34:04. > :34:04.
:34:04. > :34:14.from the postman. Dancing the samba, Robbie Savage
:34:14. > :34:14.
:34:14. > :35:53.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:35:53. > :36:03.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. A standing ovation! What a finish!
:36:03. > :36:04.
:36:04. > :36:10.There is the old team colours. Look at that. What did he say! Nothing,
:36:10. > :36:15.I didn't think so. Craig, oh, what is he going to think of that? A
:36:15. > :36:21.male stripper, I mean, I ask you. Craig, I can read it in your face.
:36:21. > :36:25.Let's just start with the bounce, shall we, darling. It was way too
:36:25. > :36:29.exaggerated, I am afraid. At least it was there. It made it look a
:36:29. > :36:36.little bit unnatural because it was overdone. Your fingers, I am afraid,
:36:36. > :36:41.are still looking like they belong in a ten pin bowling ball. Mostly
:36:41. > :36:48.they've been rectified but especially in the running
:36:48. > :36:55.promenades. And that last bit, darling the reveal to no avail, was
:36:55. > :37:02.I think inessential. Got a wonderful reaction, though. Len?
:37:02. > :37:07.Well, it was what you call a shamba. There was samba and a lot of good
:37:07. > :37:14.content. You did well. The fall aways, the running with the peuf
:37:14. > :37:19.peuf -- pivots. See then you somehow get possessed and you have
:37:19. > :37:27.to reveal - it turns into Match of the Day all of a sudden. Just do it,
:37:27. > :37:34.you do it good. Then you stick all that stuff in. LAUGHTER. Go on,
:37:34. > :37:39.Len! Show us. I might pull something important. No, I can't.
:37:39. > :37:44.think it's the first time we have seen a male dancer's legs on the
:37:44. > :37:48.show, actually. Not that I am looking for it. Alesha, what did
:37:48. > :37:51.you think, darling? I love that you are relaxed and having fun with
:37:51. > :37:55.this competition. It's clearly having a positive effect on you,
:37:55. > :37:58.which is wonderful. As far as the dance goes, some really nice
:37:58. > :38:05.movements - there was nice movements in there and last week
:38:05. > :38:13.was entertaining and this week was entertaining. Well done, Robbie.
:38:13. > :38:19.Bruno? Robbie, that's an interesting look! I go for briefs
:38:19. > :38:24.myself. It wasn't the lightest of samba. It was a bit heavy. It was
:38:25. > :38:34.like a kangaroo with lead feet. I mean, you tried. It wasn't
:38:35. > :38:36.
:38:36. > :38:44.completely successful, but you can always go home stripping. Well done.
:38:44. > :38:51.Such fun, off you go. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:38:51. > :38:56.Yes, the Savage samba! Dancing to You Sexy Thing, was that your idea?
:38:56. > :39:05.Yes, it was his idea. Ignore Craig, I think the audience loved those
:39:05. > :39:09.knees. Ola has been dancing for ten years now, I thought it was better
:39:09. > :39:12.than that the judges scores, you have been dancing 20 years, I
:39:12. > :39:22.thought it was a much better score than that. You deserve much better.
:39:22. > :39:36.
:39:36. > :39:40.Oh, thank you. He is a sent. -- 25 out of 40. Oh, dear. We all
:39:40. > :39:48.thought it was entertaining and someone back there said great hand
:39:48. > :39:51.placement. Don't know what they were talking about. Call this
:39:51. > :39:58.number, if you enjoyed the samba and would like Robbie to dance
:39:58. > :40:02.again next week. Talking of next week, you all have front row seats
:40:02. > :40:06.for the movie special but all our stars are going to need an
:40:06. > :40:13.admission ticket first and that's where your votes come in. Over to
:40:13. > :40:19.you, Bruce. Thank you, Tess. Next up Chelsee and her partner Pasha.
:40:19. > :40:25.APPLAUSE. Another great couple. Now they're doing the Argentine tango,
:40:25. > :40:30.and for this dance Chelsee needs to be passionate. She asked me for
:40:30. > :40:34.some advice and said what do you need to be passionate? I said a
:40:34. > :40:40.week's notice. Don't laugh, it's not funny! It used to be five
:40:40. > :40:44.minutes and I am dreading when it's a fortnight. Anyway, here they are
:40:44. > :40:54.- I made myself laugh then! Haven't done that for years. Here they are
:40:54. > :40:57.Walking on to the Wembley dancefloor was such a surreal sort
:40:57. > :41:07.of feeling. When I seen the audience, I just thought what am I
:41:07. > :41:12.doing here? Chelsee! To be joint top of the leaderboard, I don't
:41:12. > :41:17.think I deserved to be there but if they want to put me there I am so
:41:17. > :41:22.grateful. Tango requires a lot of passion. To be honest it's quite
:41:22. > :41:27.cheesy and it's just not me. Passion. At the moment Chelsee
:41:27. > :41:34.struggles a little bit. She sees me more as a brother and not that hot
:41:34. > :41:38.guy she is lusting after. I am not saying it's just Pasha, I think in
:41:38. > :41:43.general I am not really a passionate girl. Probably the only
:41:43. > :41:47.girl that doesn't want you, if that makes you better. If I had the man
:41:47. > :41:57.of my dreams I would found it easier. Who is your dream man?
:41:57. > :42:01.
:42:01. > :42:10.has to be quite funny. OK. Pasha, the man I want needs to be strong.
:42:10. > :42:20.No, Pasha, that's not what I meant. I meant passion! OK, got it. Go on
:42:20. > :42:25.
:42:25. > :42:35.then, that will do! All right then, Dancing the Argentine tango,
:42:35. > :42:35.
:42:35. > :44:29.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:44:29. > :44:36.Another one, every routine! Look at that, Chelsee. All for you. They
:44:36. > :44:45.loved it. And I loved it. You are such a little gem, you really are.
:44:45. > :44:49.And you didn't close the door. It wasn't all over. Len? Of course it
:44:49. > :44:55.was good, but I don't get this. You are an actress, you just got to act
:44:55. > :45:02.the dance. You don't have to blooming ehroep with the guy. --
:45:02. > :45:09.elope. Gordon Bennett! There's no intensity about it. I liked it!
:45:09. > :45:15.It's the best dance I have seen tonight. So don't get on my wick.
:45:15. > :45:20.Get into it! All right. I will get you one of your pills in a minute.
:45:20. > :45:23.Alesha? Technically it was strong, it was sharp. You executed it well.
:45:23. > :45:26.I just want you to lose your inhibitions because when you do you
:45:26. > :45:33.are going to go through the roof to the next level. Excellent job.
:45:33. > :45:42.Wonderful. Bruno? Oh, you are a goody-goody little girl, aren't
:45:43. > :45:48.you? Yes, you are. The footwork, intricacy, great shapes, precise. I
:45:48. > :45:52.loved it, but I want you to be badder. Len is right. You really
:45:52. > :45:55.have to go in there. You have to get that tango. You have to feel it
:45:55. > :46:01.in your body because you are such a good dancer and he is right, it
:46:01. > :46:06.will get you to the next level. Sorry, Alesha. I am used to it!
:46:06. > :46:09.Craig? What Bruno was trying to demonstrate was the A-frame which
:46:09. > :46:13.was sadly mising from the dance but there was a high level of
:46:13. > :46:23.difficulty in that routine that you coped with brilliantly, I have to
:46:23. > :46:24.
:46:24. > :46:29.say. You do lack that solar plexus connection. Work on that if you get
:46:30. > :46:38.to do it again, darling, because it is fabulous. You should be very
:46:38. > :46:45.proud of yourself. Well done the pair of you. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:46:45. > :46:49.Come on our Chelsee! They loved it. Standing ovation. Len's best dance
:46:49. > :46:55.of the night but Bruno wants you to be badder. Have you got it in you?
:46:55. > :47:05.Of course I can be badder. I don't know if I could do it on telly.
:47:05. > :47:21.
:47:21. > :47:26.Come on then, that deserves a big hug. 35. Made up, thank you so much.
:47:26. > :47:29.Well done. She's made up. The number to call at the end of the
:47:29. > :47:37.show, if you want to show support for Chelsee and you would love to
:47:38. > :47:42.see her dance next weekend. Sound good? It sounds amazing. All right.
:47:42. > :47:48.You can look at all the latest goings on, on the website. Over to
:47:48. > :47:52.you, Bruce. Thank you, Tess. Our next couple is Jason Donovan and
:47:52. > :47:58.his partner Kristina. APPLAUSE.
:47:58. > :48:02.Another very popular couple. Jason was very upset at making a mistake
:48:02. > :48:08.last week. I said don't worry about it, I made a mistake as well. He
:48:09. > :48:12.said what mistake did you make? I said well I gave Ola a kiss on the
:48:12. > :48:20.cheek and it turned out to be Robbie Savage. I wouldn't have
:48:20. > :48:24.known if it wasn't for the stubble. No, that's not true, because I felt
:48:24. > :48:34.Ola's cheek, it's as soft as a baby's arm. Here they are - don't
:48:34. > :48:37.know what's the matter with me I want to nail this routine,
:48:37. > :48:41.because it's a good one. Performing the jive at Wembley would have to
:48:41. > :48:47.go down as one of the most incredible experiences of my life.
:48:47. > :48:52.Great atmosphere. Great show. Then, unfortunately, life happens.
:48:52. > :48:58.Something goes wrong. I suppose that would have been phenomenonal,
:48:58. > :49:05.if it wasn't for that last moment. I did let the side down a little
:49:05. > :49:13.bit, which I am so gutted about. Really sad. One little move. It was
:49:13. > :49:18.an incredible show tonight. Special. Not without drama. Yes.
:49:18. > :49:22.Charleston is all about smiling, getting the facial expressions just
:49:22. > :49:29.right and making sure the moves are sort of cheeky in some sort of way.
:49:29. > :49:34.It's going to be fun. Jason really needs to sell this dance. Smile all
:49:34. > :49:40.the way. Sell it! That's better. Really got to sell this dance.
:49:40. > :49:49.I reckon I can do that. Are you thinking the tango can go-
:49:49. > :49:56.go? That the paso is passe? Well, you need the Charleston. Be the
:49:56. > :50:01.envoy of your -- envy of your friends. You can drive it away
:50:01. > :50:06.today. This incredible offer ends Saturday, so hurry. Please allow 30
:50:06. > :50:15.days for delivery, no refunds. Batteries not included. The
:50:15. > :50:25.Charleston, coming to a ballroom near you. Dancing the Charleston,
:50:25. > :50:25.
:50:25. > :52:12.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:52:13. > :52:20.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Another one! Routine after routine,
:52:20. > :52:30.what a night. And that was stunning. Well done the pair of you. Kristina
:52:30. > :52:32.
:52:32. > :52:37.and Jason, well done. Absolutely. Now, then. Oh dear. Bruno? High
:52:37. > :52:47.energy, slap-stick. You kept it good and the facial expressions,
:52:47. > :52:48.
:52:48. > :52:54.nobody can use you of -- can accuse you of using botox. Absolutely
:52:54. > :53:01.flying. Craig? A smile on your face? I was willing it to be
:53:01. > :53:10.perfect. And then that disastrous kick section. But that, I have to
:53:11. > :53:14.say, was a Charleston. Yeah, it certainly was. Len? I have nothing
:53:14. > :53:22.else to say that these two haven't said. It was truly fabulous. Well
:53:22. > :53:26.done. Well, there you are. Alesha? I loved the energy, the routine. It
:53:26. > :53:36.was fun. You are a hard worker, Jason. It's really paying off. Good
:53:36. > :53:40.
:53:40. > :53:47.job. We can't say any more, we love you. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:53:47. > :53:50.Yes, it was all white on the night! Lots of energy, lots of fun. I
:53:50. > :53:54.really enjoyed that routine. That was fun. All that character acting,
:53:54. > :53:59.you must have relished that? I find that's the greatest place to start.
:53:59. > :54:03.When there's a character there you can really sort of explore the
:54:03. > :54:06.moment. The Charleston is a dance that suits you. Thank you. Is he
:54:06. > :54:09.through -- if you are through to next week what can we look forward
:54:09. > :54:13.to for movie week? We can look forward to lots more
:54:13. > :54:23.characterisations. A lot of that. Yeah, it's going to be big on
:54:23. > :54:40.
:54:40. > :54:44.Yes, the nines are out. Write down this number and call later if
:54:44. > :54:50.Jason's Charleston was right up your Ramsey Street and you want to
:54:50. > :54:54.see him dance again next Saturday. All right! The swingathon is
:54:54. > :54:59.looming large, it's going to be organised ballroom chaos. You don't
:54:59. > :55:05.want to be going anywhere. Back to you, Bruce.
:55:05. > :55:11.Time for our next couple, Harry Judd and his partner Aliona.
:55:11. > :55:18.Another popular couple. When Harry danced with his shirt open last
:55:18. > :55:24.week - all right! 6,000 people at Wembley screamed and screamed with
:55:24. > :55:34.excitement. I said, all that noise must have made you deaf as a post.
:55:34. > :55:38.
:55:38. > :55:42.He said 6.30. Think about it. Here I am not letting go of this curtain,
:55:42. > :55:50.I am scared. In Wembley in front of 6,000 people was a very scary
:55:50. > :55:53.experience, but at the same time very exhilarating. Being in a band
:55:53. > :55:59.I never had aspirations of dancing at Wembley, but now it's happened
:55:59. > :56:03.it was a special experience. So I have danced at Wembley, not bad.
:56:03. > :56:09.There's only seven couples left, we are going to have to work hard and
:56:09. > :56:13.pull out all the stops now. It's a quickstep for a reason! There's so
:56:13. > :56:17.many different rhythms in it and so many different steps. I feel like
:56:17. > :56:23.an idiot. It's so quick that if you mess up once it's very hard to get
:56:23. > :56:27.back into it. And quick and quick... I think Aliona has something to
:56:27. > :56:36.help me out. I am not entirely sure what it is. OK, Harry, it's time to
:56:36. > :56:42.get to work. What is this? A piano. She pt want -- she wanted to test
:56:42. > :56:45.my speed and footwork so first up Chop Sticks and then the notes to
:56:45. > :56:52.the song we are dancing on Saturday. Let's see if you can move your feet
:56:52. > :56:55.quick enough to our song. To be honest I couldn't really see what
:56:55. > :57:05.the fuss was about. I found it quite easy. When it comes to my
:57:05. > :57:15.feet I reckon I can pretty much do anything. Thank you very much!
:57:15. > :57:15.
:57:15. > :58:53.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:58:53. > :59:03.Dancing the quickstep, Harry Judd APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:59:03. > :59:06.
:59:06. > :59:14.Look at this! They're loving it! Oh, Harry and Aliona, that was so good.
:59:14. > :59:24.Seven dances, seven standing ovations. Absolutely. Craig, start
:59:24. > :59:25.
:59:25. > :59:35.us off. Uh... You have a lazy left foot. You will let my lazy right
:59:35. > :59:37.
:59:37. > :59:42.foot in a minute. It's oddly and strangely sickled and slightly
:59:42. > :59:49.pigeon-toeed. That's all I could find wrong with it, though. So you
:59:49. > :59:53.are being pernickety. Len, anything to add? Wide elbows, great movement,
:59:53. > :59:59.lovely sway. Sway is hard to get, you have the sway. Harry, I think
:59:59. > :00:03.the highest mark I have given you so far this series is an eight. You
:00:03. > :00:07.could get a nine tonight, I am telling you. Oh, Len's being
:00:07. > :00:10.generous. Alesha? My favourite moment as a judge is to be able to
:00:10. > :00:20.sit back, relax and enjoy the show and just take it for what it is.
:00:20. > :00:23.
:00:23. > :00:27.That was outstanding. Lovely. Bruno? Harry, tremendous assurance,
:00:27. > :00:37.polish of detail. Elegance, sophisticated. You were moving
:00:37. > :00:37.
:00:37. > :00:41.beautifully and that sway, you can sway away with anyone! Superb!
:00:41. > :00:51.about this lady? The work you have done with him is marvellous. Off
:00:51. > :00:53.
:00:53. > :00:57.you go, wonderful. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:00:57. > :01:00.Wow. Outstanding said Alesha. You have been at the top of the
:01:00. > :01:04.leaderboard, you have reached Wembley. You must be thinking
:01:04. > :01:11.glitterball trophy around about now? Not at all. We are taking it
:01:11. > :01:15.week by week, honestly. I am happy to just still be here, having fun.
:01:15. > :01:20.We are just doing our best. swingathon is next, have you got
:01:20. > :01:30.anything left in the tank? Hopefully, it's in a few minutes,
:01:30. > :01:37.
:01:37. > :01:47.isn't it! He can barely breathe the Sorry, Harry. No nine, it's a ten
:01:47. > :01:55.
:01:55. > :02:04.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. 39 out of 40, the highest score of the series.
:02:04. > :02:11.How does it feel? Amazing. Aliona is amazing. Thank you. The number
:02:11. > :02:18.to jot down and call later, if you want McFly's Harry to dance to the
:02:18. > :02:22.beat of the ballroom drum next weekend. Everybody needs your votes.
:02:22. > :02:25.Elbow and knee pads at the ready, you two need to get changed
:02:25. > :02:29.sharpish. Go, go, go! These guys are already changed, as you can see.
:02:29. > :02:33.We are minutes away from the Strictly swingathon. We have seen
:02:33. > :02:39.seven stunning performances, and the night is far from over. Now our
:02:39. > :02:49.intrepid stars will boldly go where very few have gone before. Come
:02:49. > :02:50.
:02:50. > :02:57.back James Jordan! This is what awaits them. The swingathon, come
:02:57. > :03:07.on! Swing is a fast, energetic jive. Lots of kicks, lots of throws.
:03:07. > :03:11.Lifts, and it's a mixture of jive, with a bit of lindy hop, all
:03:11. > :03:14.different genres put together. Swingathon! We get a chance to
:03:15. > :03:19.compare all the couples together. We will be looking for couples that
:03:19. > :03:23.can dance with a real high energy performance and they've got to
:03:23. > :03:30.maintain it from the first, to the last bar of music. I think I am
:03:30. > :03:36.going to need oxygen. The rules? There are no rules. Just get out
:03:36. > :03:39.there and wow the judges. Bring on the swingathon! This will be the
:03:39. > :03:46.battle of the ballroom. We are going to have seven couples out on
:03:46. > :03:50.that floor. If you haven't got rhythm what else have you got? A
:03:50. > :03:55.push. One by one we decide who goes and who stays. The first couple to
:03:55. > :04:00.leave the floor will get one added to their score. The next couple two
:04:00. > :04:05.and so it will go on and the last couple standing will get seven
:04:05. > :04:10.added to their score for their individual dance. Either me and you
:04:10. > :04:15.are going to be fighting or we can double team. Let's double team.
:04:15. > :04:23.are going to go out on that dancefloor and own it. I am going
:04:23. > :04:30.to be King tonight! We are going to do our best. It's truly the war on
:04:30. > :04:35.the floor. It's going to be war on the floor!
:04:35. > :04:40.So to recap, whoever stays swinging the longest will be given the
:04:40. > :04:43.maximum score of send and the first couple eliminated will score one,
:04:43. > :04:47.then two and so on. These scores will be added to tonight's
:04:47. > :04:52.leaderboard which which which means this week everybody will be marked
:04:52. > :04:56.out of 47. As always on Strictly, head judge Len will have the
:04:56. > :05:01.deciding say. Len, what advice do you have for our stars? Well, the
:05:01. > :05:05.thing is they've got to get into their own little areas, basically
:05:05. > :05:10.stay there, because I think you have got to really focus and you
:05:10. > :05:14.have got to come out from start to finish and give it your all. Do as
:05:14. > :05:20.many steps as possible. Keep that thing going. Keep the energy high
:05:20. > :05:24.and keep going from the beginning, right through. Harry and Aliona are
:05:24. > :05:29.almost ready. Bruno, how how difficult is it to dance full-on
:05:29. > :05:34.with that intensity with 14 people on the floor. It's very hard. It's
:05:34. > :05:37.like a cat fight. You have to really maintain the momentum. You
:05:37. > :05:41.can never deflate. You have to keep the adrenalin going and then you
:05:41. > :05:46.have to keep the timing. What happens if you get distracted and
:05:46. > :05:49.lose timing, the judges will get you out immediately. You make a
:05:49. > :05:52.mistake, you have to do that. You have to create your space, stand
:05:52. > :05:59.out from the competition and make an impression for the right reasons.
:05:59. > :06:04.It's ruthless. So no pressure base skhreu -- basically! I believe
:06:04. > :06:09.everybody is ready. The time for talk is over. It's time for action.
:06:09. > :06:13.Let's bring our send stars back for -- seven stars back for the
:06:13. > :06:23.Strictly swingathon. Will our celebrities and and their

:09:45. > :09:50.everything was on time. I loved the body ripple as well. It was
:09:50. > :09:55.absolutely great. They just finished the other dance, the
:09:55. > :10:03.quickstep. The last dance and then to do that, that's incredible.
:10:03. > :10:06.done. Alesha, Robbie and Ola out first. What went wrong?
:10:06. > :10:10.anything in particular, it's so difficult to focus on all the
:10:10. > :10:16.couples. Some couples stand out more than others. They all did
:10:16. > :10:20.brilliant. It's a test of endurance. Thank you so much the judges.
:10:20. > :10:25.difficult. Right, while they get their breath back, and please get
