:00:12. > :00:19.Last weekend our stars Keith they all run regards to Broadway. It was
:00:19. > :00:26.the feel-good hit of the year. Razzle-dazzle. For some, life was a
:00:26. > :00:33.cabaret. You put the show in showbusiness. The critics raved.
:00:33. > :00:40.Others were panned. Cold sponge. And a leading lady was made to look
:00:40. > :00:46.like an ass. Like applauding you'll. One couple received a wake-up call
:00:46. > :00:53.they didn't want to hear. The curtain fell. This week it is back
:00:53. > :01:00.to ballroom basics for our 12 remaining stars. Know where to run.
:01:00. > :01:06.Nowhere to hide. I am not boasting. It is getting dirty. On the

:03:13. > :03:14.
:03:14. > :03:22.problem. She said, Hallowe'en is You missed it! Anyway, don't worry
:03:22. > :03:26.about it, but at least she spoke to me. Last week breakfast presenter
:03:26. > :03:31.Dan Lobb became toast and now there are 12 couples left dancing for
:03:31. > :03:36.their place on the show and none of them want to get burnt this week.
:03:36. > :03:41.Early days but standards are higher than ever. This famous floor has
:03:41. > :03:45.already seen some memorable moments. And tonight will be no exception.
:03:45. > :03:50.One thing is for certain, they want to get out here and put on a
:03:50. > :04:00.storming performance. I think they are good to go. We don't want them

:06:24. > :06:29.Jason is doing the paso doble and he has been wearing a matador out
:06:29. > :06:37.fit all the time to get into character. This is true, even in
:06:37. > :06:42.the supermarket. Is that right? That's right. There for two hours.
:06:42. > :06:52.One shopper said, where on earth do you find the time? He said, while
:06:52. > :07:05.
:07:05. > :07:10.I should have stuck with you lot. My performance last week, I have to
:07:10. > :07:14.say I was overwhelmed with the judges. Even Len had a big, cheesy
:07:14. > :07:21.smile on his face. I will call you the midwife because you keep
:07:21. > :07:24.delivering. I am blown away that we have become top of the leaderboard
:07:24. > :07:32.three weeks to arrive. Regardless of the scores, which were
:07:32. > :07:36.phenomenal, this week I am digging deeper to maintain that. This week,
:07:36. > :07:43.Christine and I are doing the paso doble. It is proving to be a big
:07:43. > :07:50.challenge. I am confused. It is the first routine I haven't felt 100%
:07:50. > :08:00.like I have nailed it. Help me with the dance, I have decided to
:08:00. > :08:17.
:08:17. > :08:25.Kristina? I have lunch with you and we discussed our routine. And I'm
:08:26. > :08:29.getting some food and some butter. Kristina, come here. What are you
:08:29. > :08:33.wearing? My matador is an interesting role, it has put a
:08:34. > :08:43.smile on my face after a difficult week. But it isn't one of my best
:08:44. > :08:44.
:08:44. > :10:26.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:10:26. > :10:36.Dancing the paso doble, Jason How about that? What about it? What
:10:36. > :10:40.
:10:40. > :10:45.Take another foul. They loved that. Jason, congratulations. What a
:10:45. > :10:51.wonderful weeks' training you have had. It has been tough. It was a
:10:51. > :11:00.difficult birth. Take a breather so it is a good time to welcome our
:11:00. > :11:10.fabulous singers, Dave Arch and his wonderful orchestra. And on the
:11:10. > :11:10.
:11:10. > :11:15.mandolin, well done. Not forgetting the judges, welcome. That's enough.
:11:15. > :11:19.The standard of last week's judging even raised the eyebrows of our
:11:19. > :11:29.judges or at least it would have done if it wasn't for all of that
:11:29. > :11:33.
:11:33. > :11:40.Botox! He can't move. Craig couldn't move... I would like a
:11:40. > :11:46.picture of that. Len, start us off. The first thing I look at in the
:11:46. > :11:50.paso doble is the buttocks. If your buttocks are firm, your posture
:11:50. > :11:55.will be good and I must say, I had a good look around your buttocks
:11:56. > :12:00.and they were firm and beautiful. Let me tell you, you got the
:12:00. > :12:05.performance but you lacked the technique. It looked great... It is
:12:05. > :12:13.the truth. You look great when you were standing still. You really did.
:12:13. > :12:19.But the twists and turns were not good. It wasn't your best dance.
:12:19. > :12:24.But there you are, you did your best. Just think of your buttocks.
:12:24. > :12:29.You would agree with a lot of that? It has been a tough week. It has
:12:29. > :12:35.been a difficult birth. Alesha? thought it was another confident
:12:36. > :12:40.performance. We can't take that away from you. I felt you were a
:12:40. > :12:45.little unsure, I could feel that from you. It wasn't your strongest.
:12:45. > :12:49.Still good, but I felt like most of the character of the dance was
:12:49. > :12:53.projected in your face. I wanted in equal balance between technique and
:12:53. > :12:56.passion. You can't deny that. You lit up the room and you create an
:12:56. > :13:06.atmosphere and it was a great performance, but not your best so
:13:06. > :13:11.far. Too long in the supermarket! Bruno? Jason... You try to make a
:13:11. > :13:14.big meal out of his paso doble and you got indigestion. The face
:13:15. > :13:23.looked like you were tuning -- during the scenery, but the feet
:13:23. > :13:31.were off timing. A lot of it, you were not on top of it. Losing the
:13:31. > :13:38.timing again on a Queen song. It was not your best performance.
:13:38. > :13:41.Craig? You need to keep your shoulders down at all times,
:13:41. > :13:46.particularly in lunges and particularly when you take
:13:46. > :13:50.Kristina's weight. You tend to do that when you take her weight. You
:13:50. > :13:54.need to follow through all the lines you create. You created the
:13:54. > :13:59.line and then it ended rather than following through. You were lifting
:13:59. > :14:04.your knees too high. A real shame, actually, because the intention was
:14:04. > :14:14.there. I agree with all those comments. That is good to know.
:14:14. > :14:26.
:14:26. > :14:30.Taking it all on board. It still Come on, Jase. Jason's passionate
:14:30. > :14:35.paso. You gave it all. Len said it wasn't your best dance. Do you
:14:35. > :14:42.agree? Well, it's been a tough week. I think all of us have felt quite
:14:42. > :14:46.fatigued this week and I think... Nancy is saying yes. It's been a
:14:46. > :14:50.whirlwind for us. All the judges' comments were absolutely fair. It's
:14:50. > :14:54.a very different dance than I have done so far. But next week's
:14:54. > :14:58.another week and we will give it 100%, as we have done in the last
:14:58. > :15:04.four weeks. I don't doubt it, Jason. Of course, you have been in
:15:04. > :15:10.character... If we are here! have been in character all week,
:15:10. > :15:15.has he left the building yet, this character? I don't know actually.
:15:15. > :15:25.The moustache has definitely left the building building, that's
:15:25. > :15:41.
:15:41. > :15:45.27 out of 40. Not your strongest score. But as I say, I think fair
:15:45. > :15:50.comments and next week's another week. Onwards and upwards. Dancing
:15:50. > :15:53.to Queen, a member of Queen in the audience, did that add to pressure?
:15:54. > :15:58.I hope we did Brian's song and Queen's song justice. I think we
:15:58. > :16:05.did. I think so, what do you think? APPLAUSE. I think so. All right,
:16:05. > :16:08.jot down the number. Lines open later in the show, if you want
:16:08. > :16:13.Jason to be dancing again next week. Don't call until we let you know
:16:13. > :16:17.lines are open, your vote won't count and you maybe charged. The
:16:17. > :16:20.couple with the lowest combined scores and votes will be leaving
:16:20. > :16:27.the competition. One down, plenty more rippers to go, right sport! We
:16:27. > :16:36.are going to spoil you tonight. Yes, we are, was that ripers or
:16:36. > :16:41.knickers? Now, for our next couple Alex Jones and her partner, James.
:16:41. > :16:45.From The One Show, lovely Alex. Lovely girl. Tonight they're doing
:16:46. > :16:51.the rumba and it's a dance of love where the man woos the woman.
:16:51. > :16:56.Before the show started Alex said to me I am going to get wooed
:16:56. > :17:04.tonight, I said looking at that costume I think you are going to be
:17:04. > :17:13.very wooed. Who put that Jonathan Ross joke in my autocue?! Well,
:17:13. > :17:20.don't do it! Heads will woll. Training, here they are in
:17:20. > :17:23.training! Last week we were both over the
:17:23. > :17:27.moon with the performance. For me you are the most improved dancer,
:17:27. > :17:31.it was wonderful. We were third on the leaderboard after Saturday's
:17:31. > :17:35.show and I have recorded it. I don't want to be negative, but it
:17:35. > :17:38.may not happen again. I freeze- framed it a couple of times on
:17:38. > :17:46.Sunday to see how it looked. Nice! Who would have thought it?
:17:46. > :17:55.Definitely not pls James -- not James. We made a good cat
:17:55. > :17:59.impression. Alex Jones, let's get ready to rumba! Think sexily.
:17:59. > :18:07.actually dreading this week because everybody says it means being sexy,
:18:07. > :18:11.which I am not that into. He is an amazing dancer and he is very sexy
:18:11. > :18:21.when he dances, but will I feel sexy? No, because I can't dance the
:18:21. > :18:30.
:18:31. > :18:39.rumba. Tomorrow when I see you I # I want you to be true
:18:39. > :18:47.# I just wanna make love to you... I tried, I just hope sexiness is in
:18:47. > :18:57.the eye of the beholder. Dancing the rumba, Alex Jones and
:18:57. > :18:57.
:18:57. > :20:43.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:20:43. > :20:48.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Hello, look out! Wonderful, James.
:20:48. > :20:56.My darling, that was lovely. That was so lovely. Really affected me.
:20:56. > :20:59.I didn't know lace curtains could be so sexy. Right, Alesha, darling.
:20:59. > :21:03.Firstly, you are sexy, so we will forget about that little thing. The
:21:03. > :21:06.beginning section was beautiful, so romantic. Throughout the dance I
:21:06. > :21:10.thought you had nice arms, nice control. The The only thing with
:21:10. > :21:14.you is you play it a little safe. I think you are so much better than
:21:14. > :21:22.you think. The only way to grow is to take risks, just go for it. Push
:21:22. > :21:30.it next time, OK. But well done. Very encouraging. It really was.
:21:30. > :21:36.Bruno. Alex, you look sinfully sexy. I tell you, we - everybody should
:21:36. > :21:40.be gasping for air after this. But you were so demure and he is tapbt.
:21:40. > :21:46.-- hesitant. You have to get into it, especially on the hips. You
:21:46. > :21:49.never use them to the full extent. You never went for him really with
:21:49. > :21:56.passion and sex appeal. But you have to play it, my darling. You
:21:56. > :22:06.really have to. You have got everything anybody would wish for.
:22:06. > :22:06.
:22:06. > :22:16.Use it! If he does that again I should move
:22:16. > :22:16.
:22:16. > :22:26.back. Craig? Sexless, cold and stiff. Hold on a minute. Is that
:22:26. > :22:31.it? AUDIENCE: Boo! There was no hip action whatsoever. You spent four
:22:31. > :22:41.counts of eight just on your knees. There wasn't a lot. The public seem
:22:41. > :22:45.
:22:45. > :22:53.to like it. APPLAUSE. Let them decide, darling. Oh, let
:22:54. > :22:59.them decide, darling! Len, was he talking to you? The public judge
:22:59. > :23:04.mainly on effectuatity. We spend a lifetime watching and teaching so
:23:04. > :23:08.our criteria are different to the public. For me, as a performance it
:23:08. > :23:12.was good. But there was too much on the floor, for me. Bar after bar
:23:12. > :23:17.before she got up. There was a lack of hip action, I am not saying it
:23:17. > :23:22.was a terrible dance, because it wasn't. It had romance and you
:23:22. > :23:28.looked absolutely stunning. However, I would have liked to have seen a
:23:29. > :23:34.little bit more content for me. Overall, good job. Well done, off
:23:34. > :23:40.you go both of you. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. There they go, Alex and
:23:40. > :23:45.James. Come on, darling. It was a
:23:45. > :23:49.ravishing rumba. We all thought so up here, right? Craig was a bit
:23:49. > :23:57.harsh. Do you have you have overcome your fear of being sexy?
:23:57. > :24:01.Obviously not! I mean, you know, I just... I tried. I think you are
:24:01. > :24:05.fabulously sexy in that jumpsuit. You look fine. The rumba is the
:24:05. > :24:10.dance of love. Who were you imagining you were dancing with?
:24:10. > :24:16.Me! What do you mean? When you are out there, I don't know, you can't
:24:16. > :24:20.think of a lot. I was just looking at James. Can I also quickly say
:24:20. > :24:23.probably on behalf of all the professional dancers here it would
:24:23. > :24:26.be nice if the judges stopped commenting on our choreography,
:24:26. > :24:32.also we have been in the business a long, long time and we know what we
:24:32. > :24:42.are doing. I know what is best for Alex. It might be best - yeah,
:24:42. > :25:00.
:25:00. > :25:05.25, not a bad score. I think the four is ridiculous. Take that up
:25:05. > :25:08.with Craig later on. Please be quiet! Call later if you thought
:25:09. > :25:13.Alex was wonderful tonight and you would like to see her back on the
:25:13. > :25:18.floor next Saturday. One thing's for sure all our stars want to keep
:25:18. > :25:21.dancing and stay in the competition. Thank you, Anton. Your votes will
:25:22. > :25:31.be vital. Back to you, Bruce. For our next couple, Rory Bremner
:25:32. > :25:33.
:25:33. > :25:40.and his partner, Erin. APPLAUSE. Popular man. I noticed Rory staring
:25:40. > :25:45.at me during rehearsals. I said to him, are you studying the
:25:45. > :25:49.mannerisms of the legend that that has become Bruce foresite,
:25:49. > :25:53.improving -- Forsythe, improving your impression of me? He said no,
:25:53. > :26:02.your flies are open. Are they all right now?
:26:02. > :26:07.Saturday was one of the best nights of my life, certainly the best
:26:07. > :26:12.dancing night. I was so happy. best dance, well done, Rory. Quick
:26:12. > :26:19.step is your dance. Next to the glitterball Alesha's smile is the
:26:19. > :26:23.brightest thing on the dance floor. This week we will be dancing the
:26:23. > :26:29.cha-cha-cha. It could be a bit of a cha-cha-challenge. It's going to be
:26:29. > :26:35.fun, exciting, sexy, flamboyant. Come on. Are you talking about me?
:26:35. > :26:40.Yes. We have work to do. Star date Tuesday, Erin's mission continues
:26:40. > :26:45.to transform me into a sex God. We all know that I am a middle-aged
:26:45. > :26:50.Scotsman. You are going against the habits of a lifetime. I have to
:26:50. > :26:53.keep telling Erin she is fighting 50 years as self-consciousness. It
:26:53. > :26:59.might surprise to you hear I am quite shy being me. It's not an
:26:59. > :27:07.impression I do very well. I must be a terrible lover. She continues
:27:07. > :27:13.to maintain when she tells me to be butch, I am camp. Did that not do
:27:13. > :27:23.it for you? I am wired wrong, you press the button you get camp.
:27:23. > :27:31.bit more butch. I said I am doing cha-cha, and he went hell! Bruno,
:27:31. > :27:41.this one is for you. Dancing the cha-cha-cha, Rory
:27:41. > :27:41.
:27:41. > :29:33.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:29:33. > :29:39.Well done! Let's hear it. That was great. Bruno? For you are like a
:29:39. > :29:44.cocky Rooster! Very, very funny, but you have to be careful because
:29:44. > :29:50.you have to take the steps on the ball of your feet. That gets the
:29:50. > :29:59.correct hip action and you lost it a couple of times, but very funny.
:29:59. > :30:04.Entertainment. Craig? Gauche, Gorky. Looked uncomfortable doing this
:30:04. > :30:14.dance and it was largely due to your hair replacement and flat-
:30:14. > :30:17.
:30:17. > :30:22.Very different dances and I think you have found it difficult. Yes.
:30:22. > :30:29.Len? You are like the government, there is a lot going on and not all
:30:29. > :30:34.of it is good. I like the New York section and I thought you were
:30:34. > :30:44.crisp. By and large you kept on time, especially when you were
:30:44. > :30:45.
:30:45. > :30:50.flaunting yourself along the right Unfortunately the dire rating
:30:50. > :30:55.wasn't my cup of tea. The rest of it I found OK. -- just a rating.
:30:55. > :30:59.Alesha? Your work ethic is brilliant and you always commit.
:30:59. > :31:05.That is all your professional dancer can ask of you. I thought it
:31:05. > :31:15.was entertaining and I enjoyed it so well done. Well done. You are a
:31:15. > :31:20.
:31:20. > :31:26.Shimmying up the stairs! A cha-cha, no one can say you didn't throw
:31:26. > :31:33.yourself into that. We are the government, but we are a coalition.
:31:33. > :31:38.Those hits. They told the truth out there. I have lost a stone. I have
:31:38. > :31:44.a lot a lot of Stone's! A stone here. You are going for it every
:31:44. > :31:54.week. Thank you, what are you doing after the show? Will the judges
:31:54. > :32:19.
:32:19. > :32:22.It is worth a vote, what do you reckon? If you want Rory to dance
:32:22. > :32:29.to the music again next week. Lines will be open after all of the
:32:29. > :32:39.brilliant couples have performed. Now for our next couple, Audley
:32:39. > :32:41.
:32:41. > :32:45.Now then, Len ask me earlier what chance Audley would be doing
:32:45. > :32:50.tonight. I said he will be doing the foxtrot. Len said is that
:32:50. > :32:55.because it is elegant and for sophisticated? Eyes at no it is
:32:55. > :33:05.because he wants to and who will stop in? Any time you like,
:33:05. > :33:07.
:33:07. > :33:11.Last weekend, dancing, I had a little hiccup. From the waist up
:33:11. > :33:20.your a joyful and full of verve. From the waist down we have to get
:33:20. > :33:23.a little bit better. Today I tripped over my feet. I want to
:33:23. > :33:29.lose two stone in weight. Keep me on for as long as you want to keep
:33:29. > :33:35.me on, I will keep dancing. This week I am doing a foxtrot. This
:33:35. > :33:41.will be more challenging. You're not a boxer now, you are a dancer.
:33:41. > :33:46.My feet, my feet, I have nightmares about rise and fall. I might have
:33:46. > :33:53.to give you a ballet lesson. The footwork in foxtrot has to be foot
:33:53. > :34:03.on -- spot on. I don't like ballet. No way am I doing ballet. I am a
:34:03. > :34:05.
:34:05. > :34:10.boxer, we don't do ballet. Good, OK. I actually had a great time.
:34:10. > :34:15.really did benefit him hugely. Gorgeous! Proper respect. You are
:34:15. > :34:19.making me look bad, get out! I think it helped me be more graceful
:34:19. > :34:25.and more elegant. It definitely added something to my dancing and
:34:25. > :34:33.it will add something to my boxing. The foxtrot, the foxtrot, what
:34:33. > :34:41.should it be? Audley Harrison will do it gracefully. Dancing the
:34:42. > :34:51.foxtrot, Audley Harrison and MUSIC: "I Just Don't Know What To

:34:52. > :36:22.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:36:22. > :36:30.They are pleased with you, Natalie is pleased with you, I am pleased
:36:30. > :36:35.with you, that was wonderful. You went around, it was lovely.
:36:35. > :36:45.Congratulations. I don't care what they say. Craig? I am seeing some
:36:45. > :36:45.
:36:45. > :36:51.improvement. But it doesn't need a swing, Sway, the pivot turns were a
:36:51. > :37:00.little bit mean. A little bit of filling going on. But I really and
:37:00. > :37:04.truly liked it. Well done, Audley. I told you so. Len? I like this
:37:04. > :37:08.week when there are so many different dances. For problem is,
:37:08. > :37:12.some dances are more challenging than others and it is trying to get
:37:12. > :37:16.a balance. You have just done a foxtrot, which is probably the
:37:17. > :37:25.hardest technically to do. I am telling you this, I am sitting here
:37:25. > :37:30.giving you a standing ovation, well done. I can't believe I agree with
:37:30. > :37:35.you all! Alesha, don't spoil it. love that you rise to the challenge.
:37:35. > :37:39.This stance is so difficult. You can see the concentration in your
:37:39. > :37:42.face. The more relaxed you are, the more relaxed we are and it becomes
:37:43. > :37:52.more enjoyable to watch, but you did a good job and you should be
:37:52. > :37:59.proud. Bruno? I am going to get through this. You lost it a couple
:37:59. > :38:04.of times, but covered it very well. It is very hard. You look almost
:38:04. > :38:11.very like, but it is difficult to pass through. It is the most
:38:11. > :38:21.difficult dance and you did as well as you could. Natalie, you did a
:38:21. > :38:29.
:38:30. > :38:35.marvellous job. You really did. Off Come on, Audley. There you go.
:38:35. > :38:43.dress came undone. Wardrobe malfunction! Are you safe? I hope
:38:43. > :38:49.so. Craig liked it. The most difficult ballroom dance. From
:38:49. > :38:53.Boxing de ballet, did it help? Definitely. The comments really
:38:53. > :38:57.helped me, my knee was playing up and I didn't think I would get them
:38:57. > :39:04.back. But it was the right time. The best we have danced. When it
:39:04. > :39:09.counted. What I love about you, you are relishing this whole experience.
:39:09. > :39:19.It is great, it is a tough challenge, but having a lot of fun.
:39:19. > :39:38.
:39:38. > :39:48.25 out of 40. What is next week? Break dancing? I couldn't break
:39:48. > :39:54.
:39:54. > :40:03.dance if I tried. Punch in this Still to come tonight, Harry,
:40:03. > :40:10.Russell and Robbie. And a luscious ladies, Holly, Lulu, Chelsee and
:40:10. > :40:20.Anita. Two words, come on! Our next couple is Nancy Dell'Olio
:40:20. > :40:24.
:40:24. > :40:29.and her part that... Wait for it! Nancy told me she is determined to
:40:29. > :40:34.improve her dancing. She has actually been taking tips from a
:40:34. > :40:40.previous contestants. I said what a good idea, who were you taking tips
:40:40. > :40:48.from? She said Ann Widdecombe. She is here tonight, hello! How are
:40:48. > :40:54.you? Lovely to see you. It is a pity you missed Edwina. And Edwina
:40:54. > :40:58.is here! What has surprised! I told you, Edwina, I said you wouldn't
:40:58. > :41:03.get very far in this competition because you couldn't wiggle your
:41:03. > :41:11.bottom. I remember you saying to me, why is that? I said we all know you
:41:11. > :41:19.lost your seat years ago. A political joke, think about it! A
:41:19. > :41:28.bit of satire. Forget it. Here they are in training. Political satire,
:41:28. > :41:32.Never again. Here they are in Last week I had a very bad
:41:32. > :41:40.performance. I loved the music and the costume and my acting and my
:41:41. > :41:49.dance. It was very well received. Down in the bottom spot, Nancy and
:41:49. > :41:54.Anton du Beke. I am so happy that the viewers kept me in. The paso
:41:54. > :41:59.doble is the dance of the bullfighter. The man being the
:41:59. > :42:03.matador and the Lady being the Cape. I have put together a little
:42:03. > :42:08.surprise. I thought we could go somewhere that will conjure up the
:42:08. > :42:14.feelings of the paso doble and the matador. I think he is probably
:42:14. > :42:24.taking meted Madrid. You will love this. Where else could be the place
:42:24. > :42:24.
:42:24. > :42:32.to get into spirit? Come on. This is not Madrid! I will be right
:42:32. > :42:36.behind you. About 40 paces. Maybe I will shut the gate. I don't know
:42:36. > :42:40.why you're doing this to me. think you will get the spirit of
:42:40. > :42:47.the dance. I don't want to get the spirit of the dance. You must be
:42:47. > :42:57.joking. You are doing well. Listen, there's no way you can make me
:42:57. > :42:57.
:42:57. > :44:56.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:44:56. > :45:02.Dancing the paso doble, Nancy At last you smiled, Anton at the
:45:02. > :45:09.end. That was wonderful. Nice to see you. That was fantastic.
:45:09. > :45:17.Absolutely. Were you the cloak or the bull? What you think? I thought
:45:17. > :45:26.you were the cloak. Why he keep me with my head all the time upside
:45:26. > :45:31.down... There must be a reason, dear. There is a reason. When our
:45:31. > :45:37.head upside down we get more oxygen, more blood. He thinks it's a way to
:45:37. > :45:45.improve. He never thought of that, did he? Oxygen. I am going to start
:45:45. > :45:53.with her upside down next week. It might help the dance.
:45:53. > :45:58.That was marvellous. Sorry to keep you waiting, judges. Perhaps it's
:45:58. > :46:02.because she's not much good on her feet, she's better on her head.
:46:02. > :46:07.dear! It's an observation. Listen, there was more content. There was
:46:07. > :46:11.more content. You are a game girl. You had that that throw and the
:46:11. > :46:17.feet. I enjoyed it really. A lot going on. It was entertaining. Well
:46:17. > :46:23.done. Lovely, thank you, Len. I am I am glad we waited for you.
:46:23. > :46:28.Alesha? There's something about you, dancy. I am in-- Nancy. I am
:46:28. > :46:35.intrigued every time you step on the floor. You were a bit of a rag
:46:35. > :46:39.doll being thrown about by Anton, but I loved it. It was great.
:46:39. > :46:43.now then. Fabulous with your legs in the air, especially when you are
:46:43. > :46:49.wrapped around him like cling film. I wish you stayed there all the way
:46:49. > :46:53.through. You were trying to count and you still went off time. It's
:46:53. > :46:58.almost impossible to do! How can you actually count and go off time?
:46:58. > :47:08.But great effort. Not quite a successful as it could have been,
:47:08. > :47:16.but great to watch. It was a great effort. Finish us off, Craig?
:47:16. > :47:22.like a paso set in Oaklahoma with the amount of skipping going on.
:47:22. > :47:28.Anton, lift-city. Please, one of them might class as a throw but it
:47:28. > :47:32.was full of lifts. They're all a bit of a chuck, if I am honest.
:47:32. > :47:36.Nancy, you messed up after the dip really badly. I understand that was
:47:36. > :47:43.your fault. But I think that secretly there is talent beneath
:47:43. > :47:48.the surface. I think we really need to invest in that.
:47:48. > :47:57.By the way, Anton, I have been dying to ask you this, have you
:47:57. > :48:07.ever danced with a Nancy before? Can I kiss you? Up you go, up the
:48:07. > :48:18.
:48:18. > :48:24.Well done, my darling. You stand there. It was close. Does the paso
:48:24. > :48:30.come naturally to you. What sort of a question is that to ask! How did
:48:30. > :48:40.she make the part of the bull look glamorous? Don't you start, Anton!
:48:40. > :48:40.
:48:40. > :48:47.She's not the bull! I am the cape. Cape! Bottom two last week. Don't
:48:47. > :48:57.want that in your life again, do you? No. No. We hope not. So close,
:48:57. > :49:12.
:49:12. > :49:18.I can't tell you how close that was. Well, 18 out of 40. OK, write this
:49:18. > :49:26.number down, they're going to need you. Call later. I can't tell you
:49:26. > :49:29.how good it was going to be. None of our stars want to have a
:49:29. > :49:31.nightmare tonight - do you know what's happening next week? I have
:49:31. > :49:36.done the number. Who cares about next week, give them the number!
:49:36. > :49:41.Next week is the Strictly Hallowe'en special and who would
:49:41. > :49:46.want to get the chop before that? Not you, Anton. No. Did you give
:49:46. > :49:51.the number. Back to you, Bruce. Our next couple is Lulu and her
:49:51. > :49:56.partner, Brendan. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:49:56. > :50:06.Right, this week they've been getting into the sexy samba. Here
:50:06. > :50:08.
:50:08. > :50:17.Last week Lulu and Brendan attempted to raise their game on
:50:17. > :50:21.the dancefloor, quite literally. Illegal lifts will not be tolerated.
:50:21. > :50:25.The look in Craig's eye told me he would have done the same thing.
:50:25. > :50:30.Sometimes you have to break rules to make a routine complete. I am
:50:30. > :50:37.glad we did it. You and me both, baby. Fourth from the bottom, that
:50:37. > :50:42.is progress. This week it's it's samba. I am
:50:42. > :50:47.loving the samba! I think we are going to have more fun. I want to
:50:47. > :50:53.feel that this dance is going only in a positive direction. Wembley,
:50:53. > :50:57.here we come. Exactly. I think Lulu is messing with my mind. How are
:50:57. > :51:01.you doing the most difficult dance in the Latin section, just like
:51:01. > :51:06.that? You know how much you love this dance. Yeah, I love it. Guess
:51:06. > :51:10.what, it's the one dance I always get kicked out of Strictly on.
:51:10. > :51:13.cannot believe that he didn't tell me that there's a curse around the
:51:13. > :51:18.samba, for him. I can't begin to tell you how scared I was about
:51:18. > :51:21.this week. Four times, because of the samba. I am having none of that,
:51:22. > :51:29.we are going forward. I am not going to let him down. We are not
:51:29. > :51:39.going to be out. This curse is over. Let's do, Lulu! Bring it on!
:51:39. > :51:40.
:51:40. > :53:23.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:53:23. > :53:28.Dancing the samba, Lulu and Brendan APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Thank you,
:53:28. > :53:34.Lulu and Brendan. What a lovely number. Great fun, it really was.
:53:34. > :53:38.The wonderful number to - oh, thrilled for you, sweetheart.
:53:38. > :53:45.Alesha? As soon as you started dancing I thought yes, samba suits
:53:45. > :53:55.you, full of beans and energy. Good job. That's it. That sums it up.
:53:55. > :54:04.Bruno? Bubbly. A couple of mistakes, though. While you always do it?!
:54:04. > :54:08.Stop doing it. You got caught. it, Lulu. Len? Craig next. I would
:54:08. > :54:12.like to have seen more content. You didn't need that great big run up
:54:12. > :54:15.the stairs, that wasted more time, because this dance did suit you and
:54:15. > :54:25.you did have a bit of bounce action going on. Finally something that
:54:25. > :54:28.
:54:28. > :54:35.you appear actually rather better at. A bit of praise. We had one
:54:35. > :54:41.minute and 15 seconds of content, I think that's enough for you, Lulu.
:54:41. > :54:46.Len? Well, I liked the gusto and enthusiasm of the whole affair, and
:54:47. > :54:52.it got in the carnival spirit which is the samba. For me it was a
:54:52. > :55:01.little bit of repetition, that's what I am saying. All you have to
:55:01. > :55:11.do is turn up, keep up and shut up! Like the old days of variety, that
:55:11. > :55:17.
:55:17. > :55:22.was. All done. You have all finished. Up you go.
:55:22. > :55:29.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Come on. Lulu got the party started
:55:29. > :55:33.up here. Order, James. OK, Craig said it suited you. Did you find
:55:33. > :55:37.your swing with the samba? I did, I found my rhythm. You enjoyed that.
:55:37. > :55:41.You picked it up a lot quicker in training this week. Yeah, I did.
:55:41. > :55:45.Quite something really. She's messing with my mind. One week it's
:55:45. > :55:55.three weeks and the next week it's a day. She's very good. Good girl,
:55:55. > :56:10.
:56:10. > :56:16.25 out of 40. Call this number when phone lines open later if you want
:56:16. > :56:22.the legend that's Lulu to break Brendan's curse and be back on the
:56:22. > :56:31.dancefloor next week. Don't mention the curse of the samba! OK, we
:56:31. > :56:35.still have lots of scrumptious ballroom to come. Anyone hungry for
:56:35. > :56:43.more? Over to you, Bruce. We are hungry for more. I am
:56:43. > :56:47.starving anyway. Next is Holly and her partner, Artem.
:56:47. > :56:52.Last week when Holly danced there was a massive cage on the
:56:52. > :56:59.dancefloor. Do you remember, just here. I said, fancy spending all
:56:59. > :57:09.week rehearsing in a cage. How did you feel? She said sick as a
:57:09. > :57:10.
:57:10. > :57:14.Parrott. Pretty Holly! Never mind. Right, here they are in training.
:57:14. > :57:19.Last week Holly proved herself a smooth criminal on the dance floor.
:57:19. > :57:24.Everybody will queue up to join you in jail. This week I am a little
:57:24. > :57:31.low on the ladder and it's going to make me hungrier to impress the
:57:31. > :57:35.judges and get back up the top. waltz is very classical. My idea of
:57:35. > :57:39.dancing is generally around a handbag and now I have to earn
:57:39. > :57:45.elegance and grace. You should not do this, especially holding the
:57:45. > :57:53.pole. Holly hasn't not the natural ladylike ability. We have to work
:57:53. > :58:00.on that. And who better than Queen ofet quit to help Holly work on
:58:00. > :58:06.that. Holly needs to feel she is a Princess. Fluid arms. Gently,
:58:06. > :58:14.gently. Amazing. Artem, why are you giggling? We will have you doing
:58:14. > :58:24.this in a minute. I am going to race you. Now give me a bit of how
:58:24. > :58:27.
:58:27. > :58:36.now, brown cow. How now, brown cow. That's very league. That was a --
:58:36. > :58:43.regal. Holly, you are actually beginning to look like a Princess.
:58:43. > :58:53.Wonderful. Artem, I think you need a bit more practice.
:58:53. > :58:54.
:58:54. > :00:42.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:00:42. > :00:48.Dancing the sreu the Viennese waltz, Holly and Artem, that was great.
:00:49. > :00:57.Lovely atmosphere, well done both of you. Bruno? Great story telling,
:00:57. > :01:02.a 1,000 ways to strike a lamp-post. Very fluid and romantic, but a
:01:02. > :01:08.bit... I can't say that word. You could be amazing, you really have
:01:08. > :01:14.to focus and give it even more. You could be great. You're right, it is
:01:14. > :01:19.there. Craig? A little bit bumpy in places. It could have been a little
:01:19. > :01:28.more extreme. I loved the story telling, you Mr Hand pass just over
:01:28. > :01:38.here, but I thought the whole thing was gorgeous. OK. It was pretty, it
:01:38. > :01:53.
:01:53. > :02:00.was light and fluffy. I got fed up Anyway... Once you got in the hold,
:02:00. > :02:06.you must step forward on your heels. Did you not get told that? Yes.
:02:06. > :02:12.was all right, it was light and fluffy and lovely. Alesha?
:02:12. > :02:22.thought you were elegant, beautiful come -- beautiful and composed, you
:02:22. > :02:29.
:02:29. > :02:34.Here she comes. The Lady of the ballroom. How much of a lady did
:02:34. > :02:42.you feel out there? A bit of annoyed myself for missing that
:02:42. > :02:52.hand it. It is OK. Live television. Not that we are hard on ourselves.
:02:52. > :03:07.
:03:07. > :03:16.Very graceful. This calls are in. - 30 out of 40. It has equalled your
:03:16. > :03:24.top score. Lucky 30. Call if you want our Aussie corker back on the
:03:24. > :03:29.dance floor next week. Sound good? That will do. Go to the website for
:03:29. > :03:39.exclusive training footage and plenty of backstage gossip.
:03:39. > :03:42.
:03:43. > :03:47.Time for our next couple, Chelsee Apparently Chelsee is called
:03:47. > :03:53.Chelsee because her parents are big fans of Chelsee Football Club. I
:03:53. > :03:59.said to her, think yourself lucky they weren't fan birds -- fans of
:03:59. > :04:06.Accrington Stanley! Accrington Stanley, come and have your tea.
:04:06. > :04:14.Here they are in training. Last week I was so scared because I
:04:14. > :04:21.didn't feel I was 100% in the head. What I laugh, you come out and give
:04:21. > :04:29.it some welly. A bit too disco. just get too excited. When it is
:04:29. > :04:32.music I like, I can't help myself. I need to calm down. Chelsee's work
:04:32. > :04:37.at Waterloo Road takes a lot of time out of our practice and this
:04:37. > :04:45.week I need to see her. If Chelsee can't come to me, I had better go
:04:45. > :04:55.to Chelsee. Chelsee, he knew what! Difficult to find. Will you have
:04:55. > :04:56.
:04:56. > :05:06.some time to practise today? I have It was so good that he could come
:05:06. > :05:07.
:05:07. > :05:12.It was even better that I got a bit of time to practise the quickstep.
:05:12. > :05:21.I don't know how Chelsee does it. The Church -- the schedule is
:05:21. > :05:25.pretty tough and we are all rooting Now I have seen how hard she works

:08:08. > :08:13.have great chemistry, which is one of the key ingredients. Chelsee,
:08:13. > :08:18.you delivered it, you did a fantastic routine. The only
:08:18. > :08:24.criticism was that it tended to soon, I wanted to see more. Well

:09:00. > :09:04.loving it. It is making me... are loving it. Are you impressed
:09:04. > :09:11.with what she can achieve in such a short space of time? It is amazing
:09:11. > :09:21.because she doesn't have time at all. I don't know how that came out.
:09:21. > :09:38.
:09:38. > :09:48.You are really good. You are not Well deserved, Chelsee. Well done.
:09:48. > :09:55.

:10:09. > :10:18.Captain Bruce. Next tonight it is Harry Judd and
:10:18. > :10:22.his Palmer, Aliona. - partner. After they impressed the judges
:10:22. > :10:28.last week with a built-in jive, that really was good, how would
:10:28. > :10:38.Harry cope with the change of tempo for the warts? Let's find out. --
:10:38. > :10:39.
:10:39. > :10:44.Last week was a breakthrough week. Leather-clad, rippling muscles,
:10:45. > :10:48.action-packed. Harry, you have finally arrived. It means a lot to
:10:48. > :10:56.get praise from Craig. But at the same time it means I have to keep
:10:56. > :11:00.working hard and keep the standard high. It is a very old fashioned
:11:01. > :11:05.dance and it is miles away from anything I have done before. In the
:11:05. > :11:09.routine there is a romantic moment. There is a little hand touch and a
:11:09. > :11:15.whisper and a kiss. I have to get my romantic hat on. You have to
:11:15. > :11:21.feel more romantic. I am romantic. But in this danced it is hard.
:11:21. > :11:27.There should be some kind of self- help guide. Why the long face? Not
:11:27. > :11:35.having much luck with the ladies? Never fear, it is time to root with
:11:35. > :11:40.the walnuts. First, find yourself a fine filly. She looks game. Maybe
:11:40. > :11:46.pay the lady a compliment. Your hair looks nice and address his
:11:46. > :11:53.purple. Excellent. Strike while the iron is hot. Would you like to
:11:53. > :12:02.dance? Good. Taking her hand, gently pull the female towards you.
:12:02. > :12:07.And dance. And remember, the man should always lead. That's it, you
:12:07. > :12:17.have cracked it. You have certainly won this lady's heart. Bravo, old
:12:17. > :12:17.
:12:17. > :13:58.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:13:58. > :14:03.boy. He Harry Judd and Aliona APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Beautiful.
:14:03. > :14:08.Lovely. That had everything about it, the posture was good. Another
:14:08. > :14:12.good week. Now you are a quick learner, I tell you that. Len?
:14:12. > :14:19.distraught. I tell you what the first half was fantastic. I am
:14:19. > :14:25.telling you, Harry, hold, posture, beautiful footwork. More rise and
:14:25. > :14:29.fall than Jordan jogging. It had everything. Then what do you do?
:14:29. > :14:33.Let's mess it all up, walk up the stairs and whisper in each other's
:14:33. > :14:40.ears. I didn't get it. I didn't get that bit. Why didn't you keep in
:14:40. > :14:46.hold? Listen, I loved it, I thought this is a ten, this is a ten! Oh,
:14:46. > :14:49.Harry, do me a favour. Can I speak. As a celebrity on this show you
:14:49. > :14:54.simply have to get on with the choreography you are given and I am
:14:54. > :14:57.not going to penalise you for the whisper in the ear. You make
:14:57. > :15:03.ballroom dancing look cool. You have your own style and that was
:15:03. > :15:07.exquisite. I worried about the going up the
:15:07. > :15:17.stairs as well. You are a smooth operator. You can whisper in my ear
:15:17. > :15:25.any time. Elegant, poised. The musical phrasing was superb. You
:15:25. > :15:29.got the sway, you were on rising on every bar. The stairs is a question
:15:29. > :15:33.of interpretation. When you take the turn and doing in shadow, that
:15:33. > :15:40.you have to check your lines and your hands. It's a tiny little
:15:40. > :15:46.thing, but superb. Every little beat, almost like the drums. I
:15:46. > :15:54.noticed that myself. Craig? really loved the whispering and the
:15:54. > :16:03.whole story-telling. I think Len, actually, you are wrong. Don't be
:16:03. > :16:07.so stupid! How can you possibly say that? It's getting personal now.
:16:07. > :16:14.was dancing - Harry, it was a ten. I am not saying he didn't. Harry
:16:14. > :16:21.didn't do the choreography. I can only judge what I see and that's
:16:21. > :16:26.what I have to judge. I am not saying it's your fault. Let's
:16:26. > :16:33.practise the shadow together. the whole, I think everybody loved
:16:33. > :16:42.it. Will you behave yourself. It was wonderful, Harry. Aliona, it
:16:42. > :16:48.was great. Off you. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING.
:16:48. > :16:54.Come on, Harry. You smooth operator you. If I had a pound for every
:16:54. > :16:59.time Russell said "I loved it", he did love it. Cheers. Did you love
:16:59. > :17:04.it? I did. I enjoyed myself. I found it the hardest week. How did
:17:04. > :17:07.you find the pace of the waltz? took a while to get into, not until
:17:07. > :17:12.last night, Thursday night, that I started to get the timing and the
:17:12. > :17:16.count and everything. Not an easy dance. Do you reckon on the next
:17:16. > :17:20.McFly tour you are going to step out from behind the drum kit?
:17:20. > :17:30.skipper is here tonight, Tom. I will have to have a word with him.
:17:30. > :17:46.
:17:46. > :17:54.He will be doing the dancing from Yes, Harry, that is the first ten
:17:54. > :18:03.of the series. Wow. How does that feel? I am a bit shocked. I can
:18:03. > :18:08.tell you are shocked. Speechless. Wow. Well deserved. Thank you.
:18:08. > :18:13.call this number later if you want Harry to waltz into next week's
:18:13. > :18:17.show. That sound good to you, Harry? Sounds perfect. All right.
:18:17. > :18:22.Russell, Anita and Robbie are going to let their feet do the talking
:18:22. > :18:26.very soon. Will they be fluent in the
:18:26. > :18:30.ballroom? We have tens up here. Back to you, Bruce. Stop arguing
:18:30. > :18:40.over there, the pair of you. Or I will split you up. The next couple
:18:40. > :18:44.is Anita Dobson and her partner, Robin. Last week Anita did an
:18:44. > :18:49.amazing jive that was full of energy and we were struggling to
:18:49. > :18:55.believe that she really is 62. She told - really, it was fantastic.
:18:55. > :18:59.She told me today Bruce, I have the body of a 30-year-old. I said we
:18:59. > :19:07.all know you have the body of a 30- year-old, but when the series
:19:07. > :19:12.finishes you have got to give Robin back.
:19:12. > :19:22.APPLAUSE. Oh, thank you! And in the same condition as we gave him to
:19:22. > :19:23.
:19:23. > :19:30.you. Here they are in training. Last week I really enjoyed
:19:30. > :19:32.performing, it was just bliss. energetic, entertaining. When we
:19:32. > :19:37.finished and the audience were standing up, that was lovely. It
:19:37. > :19:40.was really thrilling for me. would love to see somebody else at
:19:40. > :19:44.62 dance with that much energy. It was fantastic. I don't think
:19:44. > :19:50.there's anybody else that could do that job. This week we are doing
:19:50. > :19:53.the American smooth. I find this dance romantic and very classy.
:19:53. > :19:58.need to feel like a Hollywood movie star. It's going to be great to
:19:58. > :20:03.take it back to the Hollywood era and the epitome of sophistication
:20:03. > :20:09.and elegance. When women dressed up and looked beautiful and men had
:20:09. > :20:14.top hat and tails. Fred and Ginger floating around the silver screen.
:20:14. > :20:19.When I was a little girl I used to watch the movies on a Sunday and
:20:19. > :20:27.think how would it feel to be a move skwreu star? -- movie star?
:20:27. > :20:31.This is a little bit of that magic. The dress was wonderful. The make-
:20:31. > :20:37.up was to die for. Hair, you know, done to a dream. That's how I am
:20:37. > :20:47.imagining myself. From the gentleman at the bar. I am hoping
:20:47. > :20:50.

:21:00. > :21:00.
:21:00. > :22:41.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:22:41. > :22:47.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Lovely. Anita and Robin, well done.
:22:47. > :22:51.We all loved that. You are a revelation, I tell you. Well done.
:22:51. > :22:56.Alesha? This dance fits you so well. You captured the American smooth,
:22:56. > :22:59.the spirit of that really well. Just need to straighten your legs,
:22:59. > :23:02.on occasion they were really bent. Apart from that, you did a
:23:02. > :23:10.brilliant job. The lifts were so daring and you should be proud of
:23:10. > :23:20.yourself. It was a great job. agree. Don't look so scared. Bruno?
:23:20. > :23:25.
:23:25. > :23:29.Is it aRita or -- Anita or Rita Haywood? It had the lovely 40s feel.
:23:29. > :23:33.One part was a bit dodgy, but all the rest I liked. Two down, two to
:23:33. > :23:39.go. Craig? There were a couple of little mishaps throughout. But
:23:39. > :23:47.nothing major. You lost body contact quite a lot throughout. But
:23:47. > :23:57.I loved it. It was sophisticated. It was classy. You are a pro.
:23:57. > :24:03.really are. Len? It's the little things I like and you did two heel
:24:03. > :24:07.turns which is which is a technical step and beautiful, up on to the

:24:11. > :24:20.and sophistication and I thought it was fabulous. Well done. There you
:24:20. > :24:26.are. Well done. How are you feeling? Well done, Robin and Anita.
:24:26. > :24:31.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Yes, Anita brings the glamour. Are
:24:31. > :24:36.you still shaking? I am. Look at you. She's been so nervous about
:24:36. > :24:41.this dance all day long. How are you feeling now? The same! You can
:24:41. > :24:48.breathe now. You pulled it off, you looked like a movie star, did you
:24:48. > :24:54.feel like one? At moments, yes. Oscar-worthy. You have a great
:24:54. > :24:59.partnership, can you imagine a time when you are not dancing with your
:24:59. > :25:03.Bobby? No. Doesn't want that to happen. I love that you have a
:25:03. > :25:08.little nickname for him. Don't worry, it's not going to happen
:25:08. > :25:18.this week hopefully. Are you going to take that billboard home with
:25:18. > :25:36.
:25:36. > :25:43.Brilliant score! Your little face through all of that. Couldn't
:25:43. > :25:48.believe you were getting eights. Thank you! Well done. Call this
:25:48. > :25:51.number later in the show if Anita's American smooth got under your skin
:25:51. > :25:57.and you would love to see her dance again next Saturday. Are you
:25:57. > :26:01.crying? No, no! Just a bit. Remember if you don't want our
:26:01. > :26:04.celebrities to face the terror of missing next weekend's Hallowe'en
:26:04. > :26:08.special, it's going to be good, then you know what to do. Your
:26:08. > :26:17.votes will make all the difference. Your favourites need your votes.
:26:17. > :26:24.Back to you, Bruce. Thank you. Next tonight it's Robbie
:26:24. > :26:29.Savage and his partner, Ola. Very, very popular couple indeed.
:26:29. > :26:32.Robbie is really enjoying the dancing but he told me some of the
:26:33. > :26:38.old football habits are causing him problems. I said what do you mean?
:26:38. > :26:44.He said at the end of the dance I keep trying to swap shirts with Ola.
:26:44. > :26:48.I said, well you be careful, son. If James catches you, he will swap
:26:48. > :26:58.something with you. Punches. He is a strong boy. Anyway, here they are
:26:58. > :27:02.
:27:02. > :27:06.Last week was absolutely brilliant. Robbie did a fabulous job again.
:27:06. > :27:11.get 30, I am improving each week and that's all you can ask for.
:27:11. > :27:17.are becoming one of the contenders in this competition. I never
:27:17. > :27:23.thought I would be a contender. All I can do is improve. It shows hard
:27:23. > :27:30.work pays off. To be the best in this competition Robbie's got to
:27:30. > :27:36.sort out his nerves and I have a plan. Match day programmes, half-
:27:36. > :27:40.time dancing with Robbie Savage! Ola thinks it will help my nerves
:27:40. > :27:44.but I think she's the one that will be scared. I am so nervous. Now you
:27:44. > :27:51.show how it feels like for me on Saturday. People think Craig is
:27:51. > :28:01.hard to please but he is a pussy cat compared to 20,000 football
:28:01. > :28:02.
:28:02. > :28:12.fans. I am scared they're going to boo us. Me being on the football
:28:12. > :28:16.
:28:16. > :28:21.pitch of Reading is the equivalent of Ola being on the dance floor.
:28:21. > :28:26.I have to say I really enjoyed it. First, they didn't boo us. I didn't
:28:26. > :28:36.expect them to cheer. Dancing in front of 20,000 football fans, not
:28:36. > :28:37.
:28:37. > :28:47.a problem. Dancing on a Saturday night, terrifying.
:28:47. > :28:47.
:28:47. > :30:30.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:30:30. > :30:38.Dancing the jive, Robbie Savage and Look at this. I love the bit on the
:30:38. > :30:42.football field, that was marvellous. Well done, well done. You are good
:30:42. > :30:51.at the kicks and flicks. That was his stock in trade. Get out of it.
:30:51. > :30:55.Bruno. Robbie, because you are worth it. I have never seen anybody
:30:55. > :31:05.working the Goldilocks like that. Not since Jerry Hall. -- golden
:31:05. > :31:06.
:31:06. > :31:16.locks. Give it to me, Ola! Technically, it wasn't perfect.
:31:16. > :31:19.
:31:19. > :31:29.That is an understatement, but I All right. Craig? Sorry to spoil
:31:29. > :31:29.
:31:29. > :31:34.the mood. Plodding, kicks and flicks was sloppy. He wasn't
:31:34. > :31:40.pointing his feet. But I absolutely adored the characterisation, I
:31:40. > :31:50.thought you did that brilliantly and you went for it. You certainly
:31:50. > :31:55.
:31:55. > :32:01.went for it. Len? Listen, you loved it, the people loved it, I loved it.
:32:01. > :32:06.No problem! Everybody loves it. Alesha? Everything the guys said,
:32:06. > :32:10.the hair fluffing, the thrusting. Your energy was under different
:32:10. > :32:20.level tonight, it was great to see you having such a good time,
:32:20. > :32:30.
:32:30. > :32:35.brilliant entertainment, well done. Yes! He shoots, he scores. We loved
:32:35. > :32:41.it, they were on their feet in the ballroom. Did you love that?
:32:41. > :32:46.Craig said, technically not the best, but I just loved it.
:32:46. > :32:53.Brilliant. Your energy was amazing. Have you been surprised by the
:32:53. > :32:57.amount of support you have got from football fans? Incredible. I have
:32:57. > :33:07.to say Ola is a fantastic teacher. Gary Speed is here tonight. Wales
:33:07. > :33:28.
:33:28. > :33:34.27 out of 40. Pick up the phones later. If you want to be Robbie to
:33:34. > :33:40.be in the squad for next Saturday's big bull run match. Do you want
:33:40. > :33:44.extra time? In tomorrow night's results show, it is crunch time as
:33:45. > :33:51.a third couple will be leaving. But now, there's a dream performance
:33:51. > :34:01.that you will not want to miss. Time now for our next couple,
:34:01. > :34:04.
:34:04. > :34:10.Russell Grant and his partner, By now, Russell was telling me that
:34:10. > :34:14.because he did so well last week, Flavia got him a present. She got
:34:14. > :34:20.him a special tracksuit made with the letter are all over it. When he
:34:20. > :34:30.saw it, he said I can't wear it. He said I don't want to walk past
:34:30. > :34:33.
:34:33. > :34:43.people and hear then say look at I thought that was funny. Here they
:34:43. > :34:52.Last week Latino loving Russell attempted his first ballroom dance,
:34:52. > :34:56.Broadway style. I would advise a more masculine approach. I can't
:34:56. > :35:06.stop laughing when I think about Craig's comments. A little more
:35:06. > :35:07.
:35:07. > :35:15.Rambo. A lot of celebrities were Rambo. Harry, Jason was in pink.
:35:15. > :35:23.Can you imagine me as Rambo? I don't think so. This week I am
:35:23. > :35:28.dancing the tango to the song Sweet Dreams. If I could just get a
:35:28. > :35:38.little bit more sleep, maybe I could get some of my own. Perchance
:35:38. > :35:41.
:35:41. > :35:47.Waking Watty, it is time to dance. Really? How wonderful. This is like
:35:47. > :35:56.a dream come true. # I am on top of the world looking
:35:56. > :36:06.down on creation. I feel I'm on top of the world. You are, look. It is
:36:06. > :36:06.
:36:06. > :38:01.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:38:01. > :38:11.Dancing the tango, Russell Grant Is he all right? Flavia, go and get
:38:11. > :38:11.
:38:11. > :38:17.him. How about that? Look at these people. Russell, you really
:38:17. > :38:21.captured the nation. This is marvellous. I have never seen you
:38:21. > :38:29.having such a good time either. Craig? I think it is very good that
:38:29. > :38:35.you are giving Mickey's know a bit of a go, darling. However, those
:38:35. > :38:41.shoulders, those ones, don't really belong. And your head didn't really
:38:41. > :38:49.look as though it belonged to you sometimes. It belonged to us.
:38:49. > :38:58.it was entertaining. Len? Your head was like that nodding dog think
:38:58. > :39:03.sometimes. It was all too whimsical and airy fairy. Having said that,
:39:03. > :39:11.there is a charm about you and you are very endearing. People like you
:39:11. > :39:14.and I like you. That sums it up. Alesha? Russell, it wasn't the best
:39:14. > :39:22.tango I have ever seen, but I appreciated your interpretation of
:39:22. > :39:27.it. For me, you are too nice to do a menacing tango. I look forward to
:39:27. > :39:37.seeing you in the jive. It is hard. You have already become a Strictly
:39:37. > :39:37.
:39:37. > :39:43.legend. Bruno? Russell, I think I've got it. From Sleeping Beauty
:39:43. > :39:52.tonight terrors. It all went on in your mind. Twists and turns, the
:39:52. > :40:02.horror of it. I thought it was brilliant! Insane but brilliant!
:40:02. > :40:06.
