Week 9 Results Strictly Come Dancing

This is Strictly Come Dancing: The Wow! A fabulous foxtrot, what a way

to start our Sunday results show. Saturday night saw our seven

couples surpass themselves as they danced twice for the first time

this series. They proved their stamina in the swingathon, but who

has outstayed their welcome? We will find out soon. First, it's

time to welcome four people who enjoy the finer things in dance,

our connoisseurs of choreography, Craig, Len, Alesha and Bruno.

APPLAUSE. You are looking chirpy tonight! Before we hear from our

judges let's find out what's in store on tonight's show with our

Claudia. Thank you, Tess. We will be looking

through Len's lens. Cee Lo Green joins us and our srepb Anton and

Erin will be whirling us around the dancefloor with the Viennese waltz.

First, let's look at all the action from Saturday night. What a show.

feel really nervous. Have a good one. We are ready to

Rock 'n' Roll. Anita, the Uptown Girl doesn't mind a bit of grease!

Brendan, let me first of all commend you on coming to the aid of

a damsel in distress. He really is my knight in shining armour.

should be really proud. Thank you tpo saying that. Isn't he adorable!

Yes! I thought it was fantastic! Well done. Very demure and alluring,

you totally owned it, Holly. Everything I wanted from you,

that's the way to go. A little bit modern in the music for my taste. I

gave it an eight and I was determine the not to like it, but I

couldn't help myself. I felt it was mediocre. You took a major step

backwards tonight. She hasn't taken a step backwards. I am the one

teaching her every day. We didn't make mistakes, the dance was all

there. Six! Come on! Robbie, why he had to take his trousers off in

front of everyone I do not know. done it! It wasn't completely

successful but you can always go on stripping.

Chelsee could have easily been a ten. I just want you to to lose

your inhibitions because when you do you are going to go through the

roof to the next level. There's no intensity about it. You

don't have to blooming elope with the guy, just act the dance more.

We were advised on more passion. Shall we go and practise now?

Pasha. That, I have to say, was a Charleston. Yeah! I am the one and

only! Facial expressions, nobody can accuse you of using botox.

was truly fabulous, well done. Harry Judd, brilliant. That was

outstanding. You can sway away with anyone! Superb! It's a ten from me.

The first three tens of the series now. A little bit speechless

tonight. So fast and there's so much going

on. You have seven couples and you have four judges' opinions and

between us we have to try and make a decision. I loved it. It was

great fun. We have Harry right up there and we have poor old Robbie

right down there. So what's going to happen? I don't know. This has

been a fabulous full-on night. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. A

spectacular night. But whose performance hit the spot and who

missed the mark? The results are in. In no particular order, the first

couple safe and dancing again next week are...

Also through are... The next couple safe is...

In the bottom two tonight, and in danger of leaving the competition

are... Holly and Artem. Again! The rest of

you have to wait to learn your fate. APPLAUSE. Bruno, Holly looked like

she had a big breakthrough on Saturday. Are you disappointed to

see her in the bottom two? Bitterly disappointed! To be honest, it may

not have been a traditional foxtrot all the way through but her

performance was one of the best she's ever given. The music was

very, very difficult to interpret as a traditional foxtrot. So she

put sequences in that were extremely right for the feel of the

music. She was sexy, sassy so I don't understand it. Can she

survive again? I hope so because really she delivered what we asked

of her. What more can you do? you so much, Bruno. Over to you,

Claudia. Thank you, Tess.

Congratulations to our first three safe couples. APPLAUSE. Really,

really well done. Harry, your dance was brilliant. We can discuss this

in a minute but can I talk about the swingathon. I was watching that

and you danced out there competitively for about 18 minutes.

You were doing handstands. Was it difficult? It was exhausting but a

lot of fun, I think the guys will agree, that was one of the

highlights for us. Really good fun. Amazing. Three tens. Your little

face and your face, you must be incredibly proud? Overwhelmed.

Speechless last night and it was an amazing night. Hopefully we can

continue that. Good, very well done. I am clapping. Chelsee, movie week

next week. What are you doing? are doing Shrek. I am being Shrek's

wife, I think. I have never seen it. Chelsee, you are coming around to

mine. She has a green face, you know? And funny ears. Should I not

scare you? No, it's going to be brilliant. She is a Princess,

though? She is a Princess. It's all right, we will rent the DVD. You

are going to be amazing. Jason, congratulations. Thank you so much.

You are all getting on brilliantly, but is it now getting competitive?

As you feel those lights do you think I hope I dance better than

anybody else? Well, it's always been sort of an element of

competition, I suppose. But it's really sort of about the journey

and not the destination so much, I think for a lot of us. Journey not

the destination, I am having a t- shirt made! Say no more. You have

outdone yourself. That was brilliant. Now he became a

worldwide phenomenon as one half of Gnarls Barkley and is described as

the greatest male voice in American music today. Singing Anyway, please

put your hands together for the sensational Cee Lo Green!

# I know I'm stingy with my money # And it's hard to get some from me

# But you still love me anyway # Your mother seems to like me

# But your father wants to fight me # But you still love me anyway

# I take you out on dates # And I always show up late

# But you still love me anyway # There's no one else like this

# That would put up with my... # And still love me anyway

# Because no matter what I do # I know I can count on you

# Because baby you still love me anyway

# For worse or for better # You make me better

# I know you still love me anyway #. Because no matter what I do

# I know I can count on you # You still love me anyway

# I know you still love me anyway # I only see you every now and then

# And I am on the road again # But you still love me anyway

# And when this relationship's not working

# That's when all your friends start flirting

# And my eyes may wander but that is not OK

# So I make it up to you # With a brand new spare of shoes

# You still love me anyway # And I will surely miss the way

you put up with my... # I will make it up to you some day

# You still love me anyway # For worse or for better

# You make me better # No one loves me quite like you do

girl # You still love me anyway

# For worse or for better # I know you still love me anyway

# Still love me anyway # Thank you darling for loving me

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Absolutely brilliant. It's now time to welcome

the judges! APPLAUSE. This is when you come up

here and we look at the details of the dances. We cannot do this alone.

Oh no, we need the help of... lens! This is where we just look at

the tiny bits we might have missed. First, we have a clip that you are

going to like. Let's be honest, Brendan brilliant at dancing. He

stepped in many times this series. He's not just excellent at dancing,

he is also excellent at singing. Have a listen.

Note up her mind... # I am in love with an uptown girl. Isn't that

brilliant! A great performance, though. Len, I am going to ask you

about Harry. I am just wild about Harry! Because so far you haven't

even given him that high a mark. tell you what he did, he came out

and kept that hold throughout the dance. Beautiful posture. You are

not going to believe it, like a gazelle. Another one. He is off.

And another. Still got body contact. Faster than wind from a duck's bum.

Look at the line. I don't get overexcited. This quickstep was

fast and full-on and yet great control. Honestly, it absolutely

deserved a ten, Craig. APPLAUSE. totally agree. Good. Let's not have

an argument yet. Alesha, let's talk about Holly and Artem, a shock

they're in the bottom two. Such a shame. Have a look at these

extraordinary kicks. She looks amazing. She looks incredible.

Every week we say to Holly she has so much potential and there's more

to give. I felt she really did give more in this routine. She's

stunning. Look how beautiful! did a modern twist on the foxtrot.

They did a superb job. It's a shame, she raised her game this week.

APPLAUSE. Craig, can we talk about Chelsee, because I know you were

impressed. It looked amazing on the telly on Saturday with those kicks.

It was, gorgeous, beautifully placed, all of that. It's just her

frame I had a problem with. She should be almost leaning into him

more. Look at that! Gorgeous. But she could have had a little bit

more freedom within her legs, actually. What? In English. Freedom

within your legs, that's having a nap. They don't have to be as

controlled. It makes it look faster. It still was brilliant, come on.

It's one of the best we have seen. Absolutely wonderful. Bruno, I want

to talk... APPLAUSE. Yes, good, people are clapping and I like it.

Let's talk about Alex and James. I loved it. She's adorable. She had a

good time. Charleston is about a good time. She saw the funny side.

Look at her there, Finding Nemo! Swimming in the sea. Where am I?

She just let herself go and it's good to see. Obviously, there were

some tiny little details. She was undermarked. I thought she was

highly undermarked! There were timing issues and it's that elusive

scissors action in the feet when you do the Charleston. It has to go

incredibly - you know, like sharper scissors. That was good! APPLAUSE.

You got to go for it. It's very hard. It's not easy. I think she

did very, very well. What I love most about you, while you were

doing that - do that face, Len. Utter disgust! Disgust and dismay.

And bitter jealousy. Other than that, let me just talk to you

briefly about Ola Jordan. We have all known and loved, smily,

adorable. Gorgeous, amazing. Mid- riff. Brilliant dancer. She turned

on Saturday. This is what happened when you guys said would you mind

leaving the floor in the swingathon. Here is little gentle Ola Jordan.

APPLAUSE. I have never seen anything like it. Let's hear it for

the judges! APPLAUSE. Next Saturday Strictly Come Dancing

heads to the movies. Take your front row seat for an exclusive

In 2011 14 celebrities stood like giants.

But now only seven remain. A new breed of dancer is arising.

first rule of Dance Club is we don't talk about Dance Club. Gosh,

Harry, sorry, I have already texted everybody about it. Oops!

Arggh! Some will rise. What's the matter? Holly, I think I might be

the one. You are not the one, Mr Donovan. And some will fall. Join

me and I will complete your training. I will never join you!

Robbie Savage, I am your father! No! But all will dance. Strictly

Movie Night, coming to your screens Saturday. Cheer up, Robbie. I was

only joking. I am, in fact, your brother.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. I cannot wait. Now three couples are already

set to premiere next week in Movie Night. Who else will join them?

Over to you, Tess. Thank you, Claudia. Three couples

are left but who is safe and who is in danger? It's time to find out.

In no particular order, safely through to next week are...

So that means Anita and Brendan, and Robbie and Ola, one of you is

safe and one of you is in the bottom two.

I can reveal that the couple in the bottom two tonight is...

Anita and Brendan. Robbie and Ola, congratulations, you are through

again to dance next week. APPLAUSE. Alesha, you commended

Anita on coping with a new partner this week. Do you think this

upheaval might have contributed to her being in the bottom two?

don't think it's contributed, but it must be unsettling to have to

change partners because you are getting to a comfort zone and I I

always said about Anita I think she is a wonderful dancer, but as we

say some dances don't suit you. But she is an inspiration. I think she

is adorable and I wish her luck. all do. Len, next week it's Movie

Night, are you excited? Come on! Last year when we had movie night

it was fantastic. I think it was one of the highlight weeks of the

series and I just can't wait to see it because you get an extra

dimension coming in, not only do you get the dancing, you get the

theme and they try and choreograph to that. It's an extra challenge to

the couples. Last year it was great, and I am sure this year it's going

to be just as blood. It promises -- just as good. Thank you, judges.

Over to you, Claudia. Now for a treat, they're the indisputed King

and Queen of the ballroom. It's the one and only Anton and Erin!

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 98 seconds

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Tonight's bottom two couples are

here. Holly, I am - sorry that you are both sitting here, but Holly

this is your second time. How disappointed are you? It's not my

favourite feeling in the world, but if we went out then I think our

last dance was pretty decent and I had a lot of fun doing it. It's

been the most incredible opportunity and made so many great

mates. Craig thought it was a fantastic dance. That's got to be

some consolation? That always feels nice if Craig says something nice,

because it happens so rarely. it when it happens. Anita, again

your second time in the bottom two. We could form a club. We don't have

time. How sad are you to be here and is it horrible to be here? I

know you two are getting on brilliantly, but you are without

your Robin? I have had a wonderful opportunity, I got to dance with

Robin and Brendan. How lucky am I? I have had nothing but great fun. I

have no complaints. How sad would you be if this Strictly journey

ended now? Of course I would be sad but I am just glad I did it.

Brilliant. Holly or Anita are about to be knocked out of the

competition. Here is why we have enjoyed watching them.

I think the best part of it has to be training with Robin. I did hope

that I would push the goal-posts and challenge myself and go as far

as I could. I am two thirds of the way through, so I think for an old

bird that's not bad. At this point I think if you have to go, accept

it gratefully and graciously. So I will go with regret, but with many,

many happy memories. My Strictly journey has been pretty

epic. I have changed partners. We have had injuries on both sides. I

have learned new things. It's just been pretty full-on. I am not ready

to go home yet. We are not far from the end now. If I can just hang on

that little bit longer, there's many things to be thankful for and

if the competition is over I will be devastated.

APPLAUSE Holly and Artem, and Anita and

Brendan, one of you is about to leave the competition for good.

It's the moment of truth. Holly, Len said your eyes are

looking at one thing and your ears are taking in something else and

for me it disturbed me. Anita, Bruno said there's still plenty of

fuel in the tank. But did the public agree?

I can now reveal that the couple leaving tonight is...

Anita and Brendan. It's all right. That means Holly

and Artem, we will see you next week. Anita and Brendan, please

come and join me. Come on over. You have been exceptional. APPLAUSE AND

CHEERING. She gave it her all, didn't she, Brendan? She did.

Standing ovation. Take that in. Anita, throughout the competition,

of course, you have danced with Robin. Sadly, he couldn't compete

this week. He has been suffering with a foot infection. It must be

tough now not to have him by your side. We have him on the line now.

Robin, are you there? I am sheer. Hey, baby. Anita, my darling, I

just want to say you have been absolutely incredible and I am so

sorry I couldn't be there with you tonight and to everybody who's

voted for you and it's been a pleasure to work with you. You have

been one of the most enthusiastic hard-working people I have ever,

ever met and I am going to miss you Anita, would you like to say

something to Robin? He made this the most humourous, enjoyable, fun,

wonderful learning experience I could ever have imagined. Thank you

so much! APPLAUSE. Thanks, Robin. Brendan, thank you

for standing in. Anita, thank you. You are one wonderful lady. You

have been an inspiration. Can I just say thank you to Brendan, too.

Without him I wouldn't have done this week. Sorry, Robin. Sorry,

Anita. Off you go and prepare for your last dance my little

sweetheart. You will be missed! I can't bear this part of the show!

It's getting tougher as we say a sad goodbye to another couple.

Anita and hopefully Robin will join Zoe on Monday's It Takes Two.
