Last weekend our stars Keith they all run regards to Broadway. It was | :00:12. | :00:19. | |
the feel-good hit of the year. Razzle-dazzle. For some, life was a | :00:19. | :00:26. | |
cabaret. You put the show in showbusiness. The critics raved. | :00:26. | :00:33. | |
Others were panned. Cold sponge. And a leading lady was made to look | :00:33. | :00:40. | |
like an ass. Like applauding you'll. One couple received a wake-up call | :00:40. | :00:46. | |
they didn't want to hear. The curtain fell. This week it is back | :00:46. | :00:53. | |
to ballroom basics for our 12 remaining stars. Know where to run. | :00:53. | :01:00. | |
Nowhere to hide. I am not boasting. It is getting dirty. On the | :01:00. | :01:06. | |
dancefloor I'm roasting. But we will clean up tonight. This is | :01:06. | :01:16. | |

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

Sorry. Tonight power couples will be dancing their socks off. Our | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
judges will score the routines and they will be ranked on the | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
leaderboard. The scores will then be combined with the votes from the | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
viewers. Another couple must leave the competition. If you are a | :05:48. | :05:53. | |

digesting of biscuits. Our first couple is Jason Donovan and | :06:10. | :06:20. | |
:06:20. | :06:24. | ||
Jason is doing the paso doble and he has been wearing a matador out | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
fit all the time to get into character. This is true, even in | :06:29. | :06:37. | |
the supermarket. Is that right? That's right. There for two hours. | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
One shopper said, where on earth do you find the time? He said, while | :06:42. | :06:52. | |
:06:52. | :07:05. | ||
I should have stuck with you lot. My performance last week, I have to | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
say I was overwhelmed with the judges. Even Len had a big, cheesy | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
smile on his face. I will call you the midwife because you keep | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
delivering. I am blown away that we have become top of the leaderboard | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
three weeks to arrive. Regardless of the scores, which were | :07:24. | :07:32. | |
phenomenal, this week I am digging deeper to maintain that. This week, | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
Christine and I are doing the paso doble. It is proving to be a big | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
challenge. I am confused. It is the first routine I haven't felt 100% | :07:43. | :07:50. | |
like I have nailed it. Help me with the dance, I have decided to | :07:50. | :08:00. | |
:08:00. | :08:17. | ||
Kristina? I have lunch with you and we discussed our routine. And I'm | :08:17. | :08:25. | |
getting some food and some butter. Kristina, come here. What are you | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
wearing? My matador is an interesting role, it has put a | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
smile on my face after a difficult week. But it isn't one of my best | :08:34. | :08:43. | |
:08:44. | :08:44. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds | :08:44. | :10:26. | |
Dancing the paso doble, Jason How about that? What about it? What | :10:26. | :10:36. | |
:10:36. | :10:40. | ||
Take another foul. They loved that. Jason, congratulations. What a | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
wonderful weeks' training you have had. It has been tough. It was a | :10:45. | :10:51. | |
difficult birth. Take a breather so it is a good time to welcome our | :10:51. | :11:00. | |
fabulous singers, Dave Arch and his wonderful orchestra. And on the | :11:00. | :11:10. | |
:11:10. | :11:10. | ||
mandolin, well done. Not forgetting the judges, welcome. That's enough. | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
The standard of last week's judging even raised the eyebrows of our | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
judges or at least it would have done if it wasn't for all of that | :11:19. | :11:29. | |
:11:29. | :11:33. | ||
Botox! He can't move. Craig couldn't move... I would like a | :11:33. | :11:40. | |
picture of that. Len, start us off. The first thing I look at in the | :11:40. | :11:46. | |
paso doble is the buttocks. If your buttocks are firm, your posture | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
will be good and I must say, I had a good look around your buttocks | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
and they were firm and beautiful. Let me tell you, you got the | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
performance but you lacked the technique. It looked great... It is | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
the truth. You look great when you were standing still. You really did. | :12:05. | :12:13. | |
But the twists and turns were not good. It wasn't your best dance. | :12:13. | :12:19. | |
But there you are, you did your best. Just think of your buttocks. | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
You would agree with a lot of that? It has been a tough week. It has | :12:24. | :12:29. | |
been a difficult birth. Alesha? thought it was another confident | :12:29. | :12:35. | |
performance. We can't take that away from you. I felt you were a | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
little unsure, I could feel that from you. It wasn't your strongest. | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
Still good, but I felt like most of the character of the dance was | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
projected in your face. I wanted in equal balance between technique and | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
passion. You can't deny that. You lit up the room and you create an | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
atmosphere and it was a great performance, but not your best so | :12:56. | :13:06. | |
far. Too long in the supermarket! Bruno? Jason... You try to make a | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
big meal out of his paso doble and you got indigestion. The face | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
looked like you were tuning -- during the scenery, but the feet | :13:15. | :13:23. | |
were off timing. A lot of it, you were not on top of it. Losing the | :13:23. | :13:31. | |
timing again on a Queen song. It was not your best performance. | :13:31. | :13:38. | |
Craig? You need to keep your shoulders down at all times, | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
particularly in lunges and particularly when you take | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
Kristina's weight. You tend to do that when you take her weight. You | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
need to follow through all the lines you create. You created the | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
line and then it ended rather than following through. You were lifting | :13:54. | :13:59. | |
your knees too high. A real shame, actually, because the intention was | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
there. I agree with all those comments. That is good to know. | :14:04. | :14:14. | |
:14:14. | :14:26. | ||
Taking it all on board. It still Come on, Jase. Jason's passionate | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
paso. You gave it all. Len said it wasn't your best dance. Do you | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
agree? Well, it's been a tough week. I think all of us have felt quite | :14:35. | :14:42. | |
fatigued this week and I think... Nancy is saying yes. It's been a | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
whirlwind for us. All the judges' comments were absolutely fair. It's | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
a very different dance than I have done so far. But next week's | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
another week and we will give it 100%, as we have done in the last | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
four weeks. I don't doubt it, Jason. Of course, you have been in | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
character... If we are here! have been in character all week, | :15:04. | :15:10. | |
has he left the building yet, this character? I don't know actually. | :15:10. | :15:15. | |
The moustache has definitely left the building building, that's | :15:15. | :15:25. | |
:15:25. | :15:41. | ||
27 out of 40. Not your strongest score. But as I say, I think fair | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
comments and next week's another week. Onwards and upwards. Dancing | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
to Queen, a member of Queen in the audience, did that add to pressure? | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
I hope we did Brian's song and Queen's song justice. I think we | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
did. I think so, what do you think? APPLAUSE. I think so. All right, | :15:58. | :16:05. | |
jot down the number. Lines open later in the show, if you want | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
Jason to be dancing again next week. Don't call until we let you know | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
lines are open, your vote won't count and you maybe charged. The | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
couple with the lowest combined scores and votes will be leaving | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
the competition. One down, plenty more rippers to go, right sport! We | :16:20. | :16:27. | |
are going to spoil you tonight. Yes, we are, was that ripers or | :16:27. | :16:36. | |
knickers? Now, for our next couple Alex Jones and her partner, James. | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
From The One Show, lovely Alex. Lovely girl. Tonight they're doing | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
the rumba and it's a dance of love where the man woos the woman. | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
Before the show started Alex said to me I am going to get wooed | :16:51. | :16:56. | |
tonight, I said looking at that costume I think you are going to be | :16:56. | :17:04. | |
very wooed. Who put that Jonathan Ross joke in my autocue?! Well, | :17:04. | :17:13. | |
don't do it! Heads will woll. Training, here they are in | :17:13. | :17:20. | |
training! Last week we were both over the | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
moon with the performance. For me you are the most improved dancer, | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
it was wonderful. We were third on the leaderboard after Saturday's | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
show and I have recorded it. I don't want to be negative, but it | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
may not happen again. I freeze- framed it a couple of times on | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
Sunday to see how it looked. Nice! Who would have thought it? | :17:38. | :17:46. | |
Definitely not pls James -- not James. We made a good cat | :17:46. | :17:55. | |
impression. Alex Jones, let's get ready to rumba! Think sexily. | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
actually dreading this week because everybody says it means being sexy, | :17:59. | :18:07. | |
which I am not that into. He is an amazing dancer and he is very sexy | :18:07. | :18:11. | |
when he dances, but will I feel sexy? No, because I can't dance the | :18:11. | :18:21. | |
:18:21. | :18:30. | ||
rumba. Tomorrow when I see you I # I want you to be true | :18:31. | :18:39. | |
# I just wanna make love to you... I tried, I just hope sexiness is in | :18:39. | :18:47. | |
the eye of the beholder. Dancing the rumba, Alex Jones and | :18:47. | :18:57. | |

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Hello, look out! Wonderful, James. | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
My darling, that was lovely. That was so lovely. Really affected me. | :20:48. | :20:56. | |
I didn't know lace curtains could be so sexy. Right, Alesha, darling. | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
Firstly, you are sexy, so we will forget about that little thing. The | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
beginning section was beautiful, so romantic. Throughout the dance I | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
thought you had nice arms, nice control. The The only thing with | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
you is you play it a little safe. I think you are so much better than | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
you think. The only way to grow is to take risks, just go for it. Push | :21:14. | :21:22. | |
it next time, OK. But well done. Very encouraging. It really was. | :21:22. | :21:30. | |
Bruno. Alex, you look sinfully sexy. I tell you, we - everybody should | :21:30. | :21:36. | |
be gasping for air after this. But you were so demure and he is tapbt. | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
-- hesitant. You have to get into it, especially on the hips. You | :21:40. | :21:46. | |
never use them to the full extent. You never went for him really with | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
passion and sex appeal. But you have to play it, my darling. You | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
really have to. You have got everything anybody would wish for. | :21:56. | :22:06. | |
:22:06. | :22:06. | ||
Use it! If he does that again I should move | :22:06. | :22:16. | |
:22:16. | :22:16. | ||
back. Craig? Sexless, cold and stiff. Hold on a minute. Is that | :22:16. | :22:26. | |
it? AUDIENCE: Boo! There was no hip action whatsoever. You spent four | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
counts of eight just on your knees. There wasn't a lot. The public seem | :22:31. | :22:41. | |
:22:41. | :22:45. | ||
to like it. APPLAUSE. Let them decide, darling. Oh, let | :22:45. | :22:53. | |
them decide, darling! Len, was he talking to you? The public judge | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
mainly on effectuatity. We spend a lifetime watching and teaching so | :22:59. | :23:04. | |
our criteria are different to the public. For me, as a performance it | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
was good. But there was too much on the floor, for me. Bar after bar | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
before she got up. There was a lack of hip action, I am not saying it | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
was a terrible dance, because it wasn't. It had romance and you | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
looked absolutely stunning. However, I would have liked to have seen a | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
little bit more content for me. Overall, good job. Well done, off | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
you go both of you. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. There they go, Alex and | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
James. Come on, darling. It was a | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
ravishing rumba. We all thought so up here, right? Craig was a bit | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
harsh. Do you have you have overcome your fear of being sexy? | :23:49. | :23:57. | |
Obviously not! I mean, you know, I just... I tried. I think you are | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
fabulously sexy in that jumpsuit. You look fine. The rumba is the | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
dance of love. Who were you imagining you were dancing with? | :24:05. | :24:10. | |
Me! What do you mean? When you are out there, I don't know, you can't | :24:10. | :24:16. | |
think of a lot. I was just looking at James. Can I also quickly say | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
probably on behalf of all the professional dancers here it would | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
be nice if the judges stopped commenting on our choreography, | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
also we have been in the business a long, long time and we know what we | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
are doing. I know what is best for Alex. It might be best - yeah, | :24:32. | :24:42. | |
:24:42. | :25:00. | ||
25, not a bad score. I think the four is ridiculous. Take that up | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
with Craig later on. Please be quiet! Call later if you thought | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
Alex was wonderful tonight and you would like to see her back on the | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
floor next Saturday. One thing's for sure all our stars want to keep | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
dancing and stay in the competition. Thank you, Anton. Your votes will | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
be vital. Back to you, Bruce. For our next couple, Rory Bremner | :25:22. | :25:31. | |
:25:32. | :25:33. | ||
and his partner, Erin. APPLAUSE. Popular man. I noticed Rory staring | :25:33. | :25:40. | |
at me during rehearsals. I said to him, are you studying the | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
mannerisms of the legend that that has become Bruce foresite, | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
improving -- Forsythe, improving your impression of me? He said no, | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
your flies are open. Are they all right now? | :25:53. | :26:02. | |
Saturday was one of the best nights of my life, certainly the best | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
dancing night. I was so happy. best dance, well done, Rory. Quick | :26:07. | :26:12. | |
step is your dance. Next to the glitterball Alesha's smile is the | :26:12. | :26:19. | |
brightest thing on the dance floor. This week we will be dancing the | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
cha-cha-cha. It could be a bit of a cha-cha-challenge. It's going to be | :26:23. | :26:29. | |
fun, exciting, sexy, flamboyant. Come on. Are you talking about me? | :26:29. | :26:35. | |
Yes. We have work to do. Star date Tuesday, Erin's mission continues | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
to transform me into a sex God. We all know that I am a middle-aged | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
Scotsman. You are going against the habits of a lifetime. I have to | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
keep telling Erin she is fighting 50 years as self-consciousness. It | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
might surprise to you hear I am quite shy being me. It's not an | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
impression I do very well. I must be a terrible lover. She continues | :26:59. | :27:07. | |
to maintain when she tells me to be butch, I am camp. Did that not do | :27:07. | :27:13. | |
it for you? I am wired wrong, you press the button you get camp. | :27:13. | :27:23. | |
bit more butch. I said I am doing cha-cha, and he went hell! Bruno, | :27:23. | :27:31. | |
this one is for you. Dancing the cha-cha-cha, Rory | :27:31. | :27:41. | |

Well done! Let's hear it. That was great. Bruno? For you are like a | :29:33. | :29:39. | |
cocky Rooster! Very, very funny, but you have to be careful because | :29:39. | :29:44. | |
you have to take the steps on the ball of your feet. That gets the | :29:44. | :29:50. | |
correct hip action and you lost it a couple of times, but very funny. | :29:50. | :29:59. | |
Entertainment. Craig? Gauche, Gorky. Looked uncomfortable doing this | :29:59. | :30:04. | |
dance and it was largely due to your hair replacement and flat- | :30:04. | :30:14. | |
:30:14. | :30:17. | ||
Very different dances and I think you have found it difficult. Yes. | :30:17. | :30:22. | |
Len? You are like the government, there is a lot going on and not all | :30:22. | :30:29. | |
of it is good. I like the New York section and I thought you were | :30:29. | :30:34. | |
crisp. By and large you kept on time, especially when you were | :30:34. | :30:44. | |
:30:44. | :30:45. | ||
flaunting yourself along the right Unfortunately the dire rating | :30:45. | :30:50. | |
wasn't my cup of tea. The rest of it I found OK. -- just a rating. | :30:50. | :30:55. | |
Alesha? Your work ethic is brilliant and you always commit. | :30:55. | :30:59. | |
That is all your professional dancer can ask of you. I thought it | :30:59. | :31:05. | |
was entertaining and I enjoyed it so well done. Well done. You are a | :31:05. | :31:15. | |
:31:15. | :31:20. | ||
Shimmying up the stairs! A cha-cha, no one can say you didn't throw | :31:20. | :31:26. | |
yourself into that. We are the government, but we are a coalition. | :31:26. | :31:33. | |
Those hits. They told the truth out there. I have lost a stone. I have | :31:33. | :31:38. | |
a lot a lot of Stone's! A stone here. You are going for it every | :31:38. | :31:44. | |
week. Thank you, what are you doing after the show? Will the judges | :31:44. | :31:54. | |
:31:54. | :32:19. | ||
It is worth a vote, what do you reckon? If you want Rory to dance | :32:19. | :32:22. | |
to the music again next week. Lines will be open after all of the | :32:22. | :32:29. | |
brilliant couples have performed. Now for our next couple, Audley | :32:29. | :32:39. | |
:32:39. | :32:41. | ||
Now then, Len ask me earlier what chance Audley would be doing | :32:41. | :32:45. | |
tonight. I said he will be doing the foxtrot. Len said is that | :32:45. | :32:50. | |
because it is elegant and for sophisticated? Eyes at no it is | :32:50. | :32:55. | |
because he wants to and who will stop in? Any time you like, | :32:55. | :33:05. | |
:33:05. | :33:07. | ||
Last weekend, dancing, I had a little hiccup. From the waist up | :33:07. | :33:11. | |
your a joyful and full of verve. From the waist down we have to get | :33:11. | :33:20. | |
a little bit better. Today I tripped over my feet. I want to | :33:20. | :33:23. | |
lose two stone in weight. Keep me on for as long as you want to keep | :33:23. | :33:29. | |
me on, I will keep dancing. This week I am doing a foxtrot. This | :33:29. | :33:35. | |
will be more challenging. You're not a boxer now, you are a dancer. | :33:35. | :33:41. | |
My feet, my feet, I have nightmares about rise and fall. I might have | :33:41. | :33:46. | |
to give you a ballet lesson. The footwork in foxtrot has to be foot | :33:46. | :33:53. | |
on -- spot on. I don't like ballet. No way am I doing ballet. I am a | :33:53. | :34:03. | |
:34:03. | :34:05. | ||
boxer, we don't do ballet. Good, OK. I actually had a great time. | :34:05. | :34:10. | |
really did benefit him hugely. Gorgeous! Proper respect. You are | :34:10. | :34:15. | |
making me look bad, get out! I think it helped me be more graceful | :34:15. | :34:19. | |
and more elegant. It definitely added something to my dancing and | :34:19. | :34:25. | |
it will add something to my boxing. The foxtrot, the foxtrot, what | :34:25. | :34:33. | |
should it be? Audley Harrison will do it gracefully. Dancing the | :34:33. | :34:41. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds | :34:52. | :36:22. | |
They are pleased with you, Natalie is pleased with you, I am pleased | :36:22. | :36:30. | |
with you, that was wonderful. You went around, it was lovely. | :36:30. | :36:35. | |
Congratulations. I don't care what they say. Craig? I am seeing some | :36:35. | :36:45. | |
:36:45. | :36:45. | ||
improvement. But it doesn't need a swing, Sway, the pivot turns were a | :36:45. | :36:51. | |
little bit mean. A little bit of filling going on. But I really and | :36:51. | :37:00. | |
truly liked it. Well done, Audley. I told you so. Len? I like this | :37:00. | :37:04. | |
week when there are so many different dances. For problem is, | :37:04. | :37:08. | |
some dances are more challenging than others and it is trying to get | :37:08. | :37:12. | |
a balance. You have just done a foxtrot, which is probably the | :37:12. | :37:16. | |
hardest technically to do. I am telling you this, I am sitting here | :37:17. | :37:25. | |
giving you a standing ovation, well done. I can't believe I agree with | :37:25. | :37:30. | |
you all! Alesha, don't spoil it. love that you rise to the challenge. | :37:30. | :37:35. | |
This stance is so difficult. You can see the concentration in your | :37:35. | :37:39. | |
face. The more relaxed you are, the more relaxed we are and it becomes | :37:39. | :37:42. | |
more enjoyable to watch, but you did a good job and you should be | :37:43. | :37:52. | |
proud. Bruno? I am going to get through this. You lost it a couple | :37:52. | :37:59. | |
of times, but covered it very well. It is very hard. You look almost | :37:59. | :38:04. | |
very like, but it is difficult to pass through. It is the most | :38:04. | :38:11. | |
difficult dance and you did as well as you could. Natalie, you did a | :38:11. | :38:21. | |
:38:21. | :38:29. | ||
marvellous job. You really did. Off Come on, Audley. There you go. | :38:30. | :38:35. | |
dress came undone. Wardrobe malfunction! Are you safe? I hope | :38:35. | :38:43. | |
so. Craig liked it. The most difficult ballroom dance. From | :38:43. | :38:49. | |
Boxing de ballet, did it help? Definitely. The comments really | :38:49. | :38:53. | |
helped me, my knee was playing up and I didn't think I would get them | :38:53. | :38:57. | |
back. But it was the right time. The best we have danced. When it | :38:57. | :39:04. | |
counted. What I love about you, you are relishing this whole experience. | :39:04. | :39:09. | |
It is great, it is a tough challenge, but having a lot of fun. | :39:09. | :39:19. | |

25 out of 40. What is next week? Break dancing? I couldn't break | :39:38. | :39:48. | |
:39:48. | :39:54. | ||
dance if I tried. Punch in this Still to come tonight, Harry, | :39:54. | :40:03. | |
Russell and Robbie. And a luscious ladies, Holly, Lulu, Chelsee and | :40:03. | :40:10. | |
Anita. Two words, come on! Our next couple is Nancy Dell'Olio | :40:10. | :40:20. | |
:40:20. | :40:24. | ||
and her part that... Wait for it! Nancy told me she is determined to | :40:24. | :40:29. | |
improve her dancing. She has actually been taking tips from a | :40:29. | :40:34. | |
previous contestants. I said what a good idea, who were you taking tips | :40:34. | :40:40. | |
from? She said Ann Widdecombe. She is here tonight, hello! How are | :40:40. | :40:48. | |
you? Lovely to see you. It is a pity you missed Edwina. And Edwina | :40:48. | :40:54. | |
is here! What has surprised! I told you, Edwina, I said you wouldn't | :40:54. | :40:58. | |
get very far in this competition because you couldn't wiggle your | :40:58. | :41:03. | |
bottom. I remember you saying to me, why is that? I said we all know you | :41:03. | :41:11. | |
lost your seat years ago. A political joke, think about it! A | :41:11. | :41:19. | |
bit of satire. Forget it. Here they are in training. Political satire, | :41:19. | :41:28. | |
Never again. Here they are in Last week I had a very bad | :41:28. | :41:32. | |
performance. I loved the music and the costume and my acting and my | :41:32. | :41:40. | |
dance. It was very well received. Down in the bottom spot, Nancy and | :41:41. | :41:49. | |
Anton du Beke. I am so happy that the viewers kept me in. The paso | :41:49. | :41:54. | |
doble is the dance of the bullfighter. The man being the | :41:54. | :41:59. | |
matador and the Lady being the Cape. I have put together a little | :41:59. | :42:03. | |
surprise. I thought we could go somewhere that will conjure up the | :42:03. | :42:08. | |
feelings of the paso doble and the matador. I think he is probably | :42:08. | :42:14. | |
taking meted Madrid. You will love this. Where else could be the place | :42:14. | :42:24. | |
:42:24. | :42:24. | ||
to get into spirit? Come on. This is not Madrid! I will be right | :42:24. | :42:32. | |
behind you. About 40 paces. Maybe I will shut the gate. I don't know | :42:32. | :42:36. | |
why you're doing this to me. think you will get the spirit of | :42:36. | :42:40. | |
the dance. I don't want to get the spirit of the dance. You must be | :42:40. | :42:47. | |
joking. You are doing well. Listen, there's no way you can make me | :42:47. | :42:57. | |

Dancing the paso doble, Nancy At last you smiled, Anton at the | :44:56. | :45:02. | |
end. That was wonderful. Nice to see you. That was fantastic. | :45:02. | :45:09. | |
Absolutely. Were you the cloak or the bull? What you think? I thought | :45:09. | :45:17. | |
you were the cloak. Why he keep me with my head all the time upside | :45:17. | :45:26. | |
down... There must be a reason, dear. There is a reason. When our | :45:26. | :45:31. | |
head upside down we get more oxygen, more blood. He thinks it's a way to | :45:31. | :45:37. | |
improve. He never thought of that, did he? Oxygen. I am going to start | :45:37. | :45:45. | |
with her upside down next week. It might help the dance. | :45:45. | :45:53. | |
That was marvellous. Sorry to keep you waiting, judges. Perhaps it's | :45:53. | :45:58. | |
because she's not much good on her feet, she's better on her head. | :45:58. | :46:02. | |
dear! It's an observation. Listen, there was more content. There was | :46:02. | :46:07. | |
more content. You are a game girl. You had that that throw and the | :46:07. | :46:11. | |
feet. I enjoyed it really. A lot going on. It was entertaining. Well | :46:11. | :46:17. | |
done. Lovely, thank you, Len. I am I am glad we waited for you. | :46:17. | :46:23. | |
Alesha? There's something about you, dancy. I am in-- Nancy. I am | :46:23. | :46:28. | |
intrigued every time you step on the floor. You were a bit of a rag | :46:28. | :46:35. | |
doll being thrown about by Anton, but I loved it. It was great. | :46:35. | :46:39. | |
now then. Fabulous with your legs in the air, especially when you are | :46:39. | :46:43. | |
wrapped around him like cling film. I wish you stayed there all the way | :46:43. | :46:49. | |
through. You were trying to count and you still went off time. It's | :46:49. | :46:53. | |
almost impossible to do! How can you actually count and go off time? | :46:53. | :46:58. | |
But great effort. Not quite a successful as it could have been, | :46:58. | :47:08. | |
but great to watch. It was a great effort. Finish us off, Craig? | :47:08. | :47:16. | |
like a paso set in Oaklahoma with the amount of skipping going on. | :47:16. | :47:22. | |
Anton, lift-city. Please, one of them might class as a throw but it | :47:22. | :47:28. | |
was full of lifts. They're all a bit of a chuck, if I am honest. | :47:28. | :47:32. | |
Nancy, you messed up after the dip really badly. I understand that was | :47:32. | :47:36. | |
your fault. But I think that secretly there is talent beneath | :47:36. | :47:43. | |
the surface. I think we really need to invest in that. | :47:43. | :47:48. | |
By the way, Anton, I have been dying to ask you this, have you | :47:48. | :47:57. | |
ever danced with a Nancy before? Can I kiss you? Up you go, up the | :47:57. | :48:07. | |
:48:07. | :48:18. | ||
Well done, my darling. You stand there. It was close. Does the paso | :48:18. | :48:24. | |
come naturally to you. What sort of a question is that to ask! How did | :48:24. | :48:30. | |
she make the part of the bull look glamorous? Don't you start, Anton! | :48:30. | :48:40. | |
:48:40. | :48:40. | ||
She's not the bull! I am the cape. Cape! Bottom two last week. Don't | :48:40. | :48:47. | |
want that in your life again, do you? No. No. We hope not. So close, | :48:47. | :48:57. | |
:48:57. | :49:12. | ||
I can't tell you how close that was. Well, 18 out of 40. OK, write this | :49:12. | :49:18. | |
number down, they're going to need you. Call later. I can't tell you | :49:18. | :49:26. | |
how good it was going to be. None of our stars want to have a | :49:26. | :49:29. | |
nightmare tonight - do you know what's happening next week? I have | :49:29. | :49:31. | |
done the number. Who cares about next week, give them the number! | :49:31. | :49:36. | |
Next week is the Strictly Hallowe'en special and who would | :49:36. | :49:41. | |
want to get the chop before that? Not you, Anton. No. Did you give | :49:41. | :49:46. | |
the number. Back to you, Bruce. Our next couple is Lulu and her | :49:46. | :49:51. | |
partner, Brendan. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. | :49:51. | :49:56. | |
Right, this week they've been getting into the sexy samba. Here | :49:56. | :50:06. | |
:50:06. | :50:08. | ||
Last week Lulu and Brendan attempted to raise their game on | :50:08. | :50:17. | |
the dancefloor, quite literally. Illegal lifts will not be tolerated. | :50:17. | :50:21. | |
The look in Craig's eye told me he would have done the same thing. | :50:21. | :50:25. | |
Sometimes you have to break rules to make a routine complete. I am | :50:25. | :50:30. | |
glad we did it. You and me both, baby. Fourth from the bottom, that | :50:30. | :50:37. | |
is progress. This week it's it's samba. I am | :50:37. | :50:42. | |
loving the samba! I think we are going to have more fun. I want to | :50:42. | :50:47. | |
feel that this dance is going only in a positive direction. Wembley, | :50:47. | :50:53. | |
here we come. Exactly. I think Lulu is messing with my mind. How are | :50:53. | :50:57. | |
you doing the most difficult dance in the Latin section, just like | :50:57. | :51:01. | |
that? You know how much you love this dance. Yeah, I love it. Guess | :51:01. | :51:06. | |
what, it's the one dance I always get kicked out of Strictly on. | :51:06. | :51:10. | |
cannot believe that he didn't tell me that there's a curse around the | :51:10. | :51:13. | |
samba, for him. I can't begin to tell you how scared I was about | :51:13. | :51:18. | |
this week. Four times, because of the samba. I am having none of that, | :51:18. | :51:21. | |
we are going forward. I am not going to let him down. We are not | :51:22. | :51:29. | |
going to be out. This curse is over. Let's do, Lulu! Bring it on! | :51:29. | :51:39. | |

Dancing the samba, Lulu and Brendan APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Thank you, | :53:23. | :53:28. | |
Lulu and Brendan. What a lovely number. Great fun, it really was. | :53:28. | :53:34. | |
The wonderful number to - oh, thrilled for you, sweetheart. | :53:34. | :53:38. | |
Alesha? As soon as you started dancing I thought yes, samba suits | :53:38. | :53:45. | |
you, full of beans and energy. Good job. That's it. That sums it up. | :53:45. | :53:55. | |
Bruno? Bubbly. A couple of mistakes, though. While you always do it?! | :53:55. | :54:04. | |
Stop doing it. You got caught. it, Lulu. Len? Craig next. I would | :54:04. | :54:08. | |
like to have seen more content. You didn't need that great big run up | :54:08. | :54:12. | |
the stairs, that wasted more time, because this dance did suit you and | :54:12. | :54:15. | |
you did have a bit of bounce action going on. Finally something that | :54:15. | :54:25. | |
:54:25. | :54:28. | ||
you appear actually rather better at. A bit of praise. We had one | :54:28. | :54:35. | |
minute and 15 seconds of content, I think that's enough for you, Lulu. | :54:35. | :54:41. | |
Len? Well, I liked the gusto and enthusiasm of the whole affair, and | :54:41. | :54:46. | |
it got in the carnival spirit which is the samba. For me it was a | :54:47. | :54:52. | |
little bit of repetition, that's what I am saying. All you have to | :54:52. | :55:01. | |
do is turn up, keep up and shut up! Like the old days of variety, that | :55:01. | :55:11. | |
:55:11. | :55:17. | ||
was. All done. You have all finished. Up you go. | :55:17. | :55:22. | |
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Come on. Lulu got the party started | :55:22. | :55:29. | |
up here. Order, James. OK, Craig said it suited you. Did you find | :55:29. | :55:33. | |
your swing with the samba? I did, I found my rhythm. You enjoyed that. | :55:33. | :55:37. | |
You picked it up a lot quicker in training this week. Yeah, I did. | :55:37. | :55:41. | |
Quite something really. She's messing with my mind. One week it's | :55:41. | :55:45. | |
three weeks and the next week it's a day. She's very good. Good girl, | :55:45. | :55:55. | |
:55:55. | :56:10. | ||
25 out of 40. Call this number when phone lines open later if you want | :56:10. | :56:16. | |
the legend that's Lulu to break Brendan's curse and be back on the | :56:16. | :56:22. | |
dancefloor next week. Don't mention the curse of the samba! OK, we | :56:22. | :56:31. | |
still have lots of scrumptious ballroom to come. Anyone hungry for | :56:31. | :56:35. | |
more? Over to you, Bruce. We are hungry for more. I am | :56:35. | :56:43. | |
starving anyway. Next is Holly and her partner, Artem. | :56:43. | :56:47. | |
Last week when Holly danced there was a massive cage on the | :56:47. | :56:52. | |
dancefloor. Do you remember, just here. I said, fancy spending all | :56:52. | :56:59. | |
week rehearsing in a cage. How did you feel? She said sick as a | :56:59. | :57:09. | |
:57:09. | :57:10. | ||
Parrott. Pretty Holly! Never mind. Right, here they are in training. | :57:10. | :57:14. | |
Last week Holly proved herself a smooth criminal on the dance floor. | :57:14. | :57:19. | |
Everybody will queue up to join you in jail. This week I am a little | :57:19. | :57:24. | |
low on the ladder and it's going to make me hungrier to impress the | :57:24. | :57:31. | |
judges and get back up the top. waltz is very classical. My idea of | :57:31. | :57:35. | |
dancing is generally around a handbag and now I have to earn | :57:35. | :57:39. | |
elegance and grace. You should not do this, especially holding the | :57:39. | :57:45. | |
pole. Holly hasn't not the natural ladylike ability. We have to work | :57:45. | :57:53. | |
on that. And who better than Queen ofet quit to help Holly work on | :57:53. | :58:00. | |
that. Holly needs to feel she is a Princess. Fluid arms. Gently, | :58:00. | :58:06. | |
gently. Amazing. Artem, why are you giggling? We will have you doing | :58:06. | :58:14. | |
this in a minute. I am going to race you. Now give me a bit of how | :58:14. | :58:24. | |
:58:24. | :58:27. | ||
now, brown cow. How now, brown cow. That's very league. That was a -- | :58:27. | :58:36. | |
regal. Holly, you are actually beginning to look like a Princess. | :58:36. | :58:43. | |
Wonderful. Artem, I think you need a bit more practice. | :58:43. | :58:53. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds | :58:54. | :00:42. | |
Dancing the sreu the Viennese waltz, Holly and Artem, that was great. | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
Lovely atmosphere, well done both of you. Bruno? Great story telling, | :00:49. | :00:57. | |
a 1,000 ways to strike a lamp-post. Very fluid and romantic, but a | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
bit... I can't say that word. You could be amazing, you really have | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
to focus and give it even more. You could be great. You're right, it is | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
there. Craig? A little bit bumpy in places. It could have been a little | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
more extreme. I loved the story telling, you Mr Hand pass just over | :01:19. | :01:28. | |
here, but I thought the whole thing was gorgeous. OK. It was pretty, it | :01:28. | :01:38. | |
:01:38. | :01:53. | ||
was light and fluffy. I got fed up Anyway... Once you got in the hold, | :01:53. | :02:00. | |
you must step forward on your heels. Did you not get told that? Yes. | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
was all right, it was light and fluffy and lovely. Alesha? | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
thought you were elegant, beautiful come -- beautiful and composed, you | :02:12. | :02:22. | |

Here she comes. The Lady of the ballroom. How much of a lady did | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
you feel out there? A bit of annoyed myself for missing that | :02:34. | :02:42. | |
hand it. It is OK. Live television. Not that we are hard on ourselves. | :02:42. | :02:52. | |
:02:52. | :03:07. | ||
Very graceful. This calls are in. - 30 out of 40. It has equalled your | :03:07. | :03:16. | |

dance floor next week. Sound good? That will do. Go to the website for | :03:24. | :03:29. | |

Time for our next couple, Chelsee Apparently Chelsee is called | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
Chelsee because her parents are big fans of Chelsee Football Club. I | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
said to her, think yourself lucky they weren't fan birds -- fans of | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
Accrington Stanley! Accrington Stanley, come and have your tea. | :03:59. | :04:06. | |
Here they are in training. Last week I was so scared because I | :04:06. | :04:14. | |
didn't feel I was 100% in the head. What I laugh, you come out and give | :04:14. | :04:21. | |
it some welly. A bit too disco. just get too excited. When it is | :04:21. | :04:29. | |
music I like, I can't help myself. I need to calm down. Chelsee's work | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
at Waterloo Road takes a lot of time out of our practice and this | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
week I need to see her. If Chelsee can't come to me, I had better go | :04:37. | :04:45. | |
to Chelsee. Chelsee, he knew what! Difficult to find. Will you have | :04:45. | :04:55. | |
:04:55. | :04:56. | ||
some time to practise today? I have It was so good that he could come | :04:56. | :05:06. | |
:05:06. | :05:07. | ||
It was even better that I got a bit of time to practise the quickstep. | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
I don't know how Chelsee does it. The Church -- the schedule is | :05:12. | :05:21. | |
pretty tough and we are all rooting Now I have seen how hard she works | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
and I am surprised she has any time and energy at all after she has | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
done the work here to go and dance. I have been crazy bezique this week, | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
but I am hoping the extra rehearsals will pay off. -- crazy | :05:35. | :05:44. | |

:07:49. | :07:49. | ||
you had. Craig. Two words, first class. I like that, that is clever. | :07:49. | :07:56. | |
Len? Pasha, you check in and I tell you this, Chelsee, tomorrow night | :07:56. | :08:04. | |
you will not be checking out. Chelsee, lovely. Alesha? You guys | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
have great chemistry, which is one of the key ingredients. Chelsee, | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
you delivered it, you did a fantastic routine. The only | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
criticism was that it tended to soon, I wanted to see more. Well | :08:18. | :08:24. | |
done. Bruno? Chelsee, the pocket Rocket, is awesome. Higher than you | :08:24. | :08:34. | |
:08:34. | :08:45. | ||
can possibly reach. Great. Be proud. Chelsee on Strictly Airlines. First | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
class. You have been so busy with Waterloo Road this week, so few | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
training hours, but you wouldn't know, what is your secret? I am | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
loving it. It is making me... are loving it. Are you impressed | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
with what she can achieve in such a short space of time? It is amazing | :09:04. | :09:11. | |
because she doesn't have time at all. I don't know how that came out. | :09:11. | :09:21. | |
:09:21. | :09:38. | ||
You are really good. You are not Well deserved, Chelsee. Well done. | :09:38. | :09:48. | |
:09:48. | :09:55. | ||
They are on their feet up here. Call if you don't want Chelsee to | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
disembark here or here. We still have a lot more to come from a | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
wobble run stars. Strictly is flying tonight. Back to you, | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
Captain Bruce. Next tonight it is Harry Judd and | :10:09. | :10:18. | |
his Palmer, Aliona. - partner. After they impressed the judges | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
last week with a built-in jive, that really was good, how would | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
Harry cope with the change of tempo for the warts? Let's find out. -- | :10:28. | :10:38. | |
:10:38. | :10:39. | ||
Last week was a breakthrough week. Leather-clad, rippling muscles, | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
action-packed. Harry, you have finally arrived. It means a lot to | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
get praise from Craig. But at the same time it means I have to keep | :10:48. | :10:56. | |
working hard and keep the standard high. It is a very old fashioned | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
dance and it is miles away from anything I have done before. In the | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
routine there is a romantic moment. There is a little hand touch and a | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
whisper and a kiss. I have to get my romantic hat on. You have to | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
feel more romantic. I am romantic. But in this danced it is hard. | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
There should be some kind of self- help guide. Why the long face? Not | :11:21. | :11:27. | |
having much luck with the ladies? Never fear, it is time to root with | :11:27. | :11:35. | |
the walnuts. First, find yourself a fine filly. She looks game. Maybe | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
pay the lady a compliment. Your hair looks nice and address his | :11:40. | :11:46. | |
purple. Excellent. Strike while the iron is hot. Would you like to | :11:46. | :11:53. | |
dance? Good. Taking her hand, gently pull the female towards you. | :11:53. | :12:02. | |
And dance. And remember, the man should always lead. That's it, you | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
have cracked it. You have certainly won this lady's heart. Bravo, old | :12:07. | :12:17. | |
:12:17. | :12:17. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds | :12:17. | :13:58. | |
boy. He Harry Judd and Aliona APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Beautiful. | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
Lovely. That had everything about it, the posture was good. Another | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
good week. Now you are a quick learner, I tell you that. Len? | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
distraught. I tell you what the first half was fantastic. I am | :14:12. | :14:19. | |
telling you, Harry, hold, posture, beautiful footwork. More rise and | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
fall than Jordan jogging. It had everything. Then what do you do? | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
Let's mess it all up, walk up the stairs and whisper in each other's | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
ears. I didn't get it. I didn't get that bit. Why didn't you keep in | :14:33. | :14:40. | |
hold? Listen, I loved it, I thought this is a ten, this is a ten! Oh, | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
Harry, do me a favour. Can I speak. As a celebrity on this show you | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
simply have to get on with the choreography you are given and I am | :14:49. | :14:54. | |
not going to penalise you for the whisper in the ear. You make | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
ballroom dancing look cool. You have your own style and that was | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
exquisite. I worried about the going up the | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
stairs as well. You are a smooth operator. You can whisper in my ear | :15:07. | :15:17. | |
any time. Elegant, poised. The musical phrasing was superb. You | :15:17. | :15:25. | |
got the sway, you were on rising on every bar. The stairs is a question | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
of interpretation. When you take the turn and doing in shadow, that | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
you have to check your lines and your hands. It's a tiny little | :15:33. | :15:40. | |
thing, but superb. Every little beat, almost like the drums. I | :15:40. | :15:46. | |
noticed that myself. Craig? really loved the whispering and the | :15:46. | :15:54. | |
whole story-telling. I think Len, actually, you are wrong. Don't be | :15:54. | :16:03. | |
so stupid! How can you possibly say that? It's getting personal now. | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
was dancing - Harry, it was a ten. I am not saying he didn't. Harry | :16:07. | :16:14. | |
didn't do the choreography. I can only judge what I see and that's | :16:14. | :16:21. | |
what I have to judge. I am not saying it's your fault. Let's | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
practise the shadow together. the whole, I think everybody loved | :16:26. | :16:33. | |
it. Will you behave yourself. It was wonderful, Harry. Aliona, it | :16:33. | :16:42. | |
was great. Off you. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. | :16:42. | :16:48. | |
Come on, Harry. You smooth operator you. If I had a pound for every | :16:48. | :16:54. | |
time Russell said "I loved it", he did love it. Cheers. Did you love | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
it? I did. I enjoyed myself. I found it the hardest week. How did | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
you find the pace of the waltz? took a while to get into, not until | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
last night, Thursday night, that I started to get the timing and the | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
count and everything. Not an easy dance. Do you reckon on the next | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
McFly tour you are going to step out from behind the drum kit? | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
skipper is here tonight, Tom. I will have to have a word with him. | :17:20. | :17:30. | |
:17:30. | :17:46. | ||
He will be doing the dancing from Yes, Harry, that is the first ten | :17:46. | :17:54. | |
of the series. Wow. How does that feel? I am a bit shocked. I can | :17:54. | :18:03. | |
tell you are shocked. Speechless. Wow. Well deserved. Thank you. | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
call this number later if you want Harry to waltz into next week's | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
show. That sound good to you, Harry? Sounds perfect. All right. | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
Russell, Anita and Robbie are going to let their feet do the talking | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
very soon. Will they be fluent in the | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
ballroom? We have tens up here. Back to you, Bruce. Stop arguing | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
over there, the pair of you. Or I will split you up. The next couple | :18:30. | :18:40. | |
is Anita Dobson and her partner, Robin. Last week Anita did an | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
amazing jive that was full of energy and we were struggling to | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
believe that she really is 62. She told - really, it was fantastic. | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
She told me today Bruce, I have the body of a 30-year-old. I said we | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
all know you have the body of a 30- year-old, but when the series | :18:59. | :19:07. | |
finishes you have got to give Robin back. | :19:07. | :19:12. | |
APPLAUSE. Oh, thank you! And in the same condition as we gave him to | :19:12. | :19:22. | |
:19:22. | :19:23. | ||
you. Here they are in training. Last week I really enjoyed | :19:23. | :19:30. | |
performing, it was just bliss. energetic, entertaining. When we | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
finished and the audience were standing up, that was lovely. It | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
was really thrilling for me. would love to see somebody else at | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
62 dance with that much energy. It was fantastic. I don't think | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
there's anybody else that could do that job. This week we are doing | :19:44. | :19:50. | |
the American smooth. I find this dance romantic and very classy. | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
need to feel like a Hollywood movie star. It's going to be great to | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
take it back to the Hollywood era and the epitome of sophistication | :19:58. | :20:03. | |
and elegance. When women dressed up and looked beautiful and men had | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
top hat and tails. Fred and Ginger floating around the silver screen. | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
When I was a little girl I used to watch the movies on a Sunday and | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
think how would it feel to be a move skwreu star? -- movie star? | :20:19. | :20:27. | |
This is a little bit of that magic. The dress was wonderful. The make- | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
up was to die for. Hair, you know, done to a dream. That's how I am | :20:31. | :20:37. | |
imagining myself. From the gentleman at the bar. I am hoping | :20:37. | :20:47. | |
:20:47. | :20:50. | ||
this Saturday our Hollywood moment Dancing the American smooth, Anita | :20:50. | :21:00. | |
:21:00. | :21:00. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds | :21:00. | :22:41. | |
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Lovely. Anita and Robin, well done. | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
We all loved that. You are a revelation, I tell you. Well done. | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
Alesha? This dance fits you so well. You captured the American smooth, | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
the spirit of that really well. Just need to straighten your legs, | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
on occasion they were really bent. Apart from that, you did a | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
brilliant job. The lifts were so daring and you should be proud of | :23:02. | :23:10. | |
yourself. It was a great job. agree. Don't look so scared. Bruno? | :23:10. | :23:20. | |
:23:20. | :23:25. | ||
Is it aRita or -- Anita or Rita Haywood? It had the lovely 40s feel. | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
One part was a bit dodgy, but all the rest I liked. Two down, two to | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
go. Craig? There were a couple of little mishaps throughout. But | :23:33. | :23:39. | |
nothing major. You lost body contact quite a lot throughout. But | :23:39. | :23:47. | |
I loved it. It was sophisticated. It was classy. You are a pro. | :23:47. | :23:57. | |
really are. Len? It's the little things I like and you did two heel | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
turns which is which is a technical step and beautiful, up on to the | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
balls of your feet. I like those little touches T had ease, elegance | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
and sophistication and I thought it was fabulous. Well done. There you | :24:11. | :24:20. | |
are. Well done. How are you feeling? Well done, Robin and Anita. | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING. Yes, Anita brings the glamour. Are | :24:26. | :24:31. | |
you still shaking? I am. Look at you. She's been so nervous about | :24:31. | :24:36. | |
this dance all day long. How are you feeling now? The same! You can | :24:36. | :24:41. | |
breathe now. You pulled it off, you looked like a movie star, did you | :24:41. | :24:48. | |
feel like one? At moments, yes. Oscar-worthy. You have a great | :24:48. | :24:54. | |
partnership, can you imagine a time when you are not dancing with your | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
Bobby? No. Doesn't want that to happen. I love that you have a | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
little nickname for him. Don't worry, it's not going to happen | :25:03. | :25:08. | |
this week hopefully. Are you going to take that billboard home with | :25:08. | :25:18. | |
:25:18. | :25:36. | ||
Brilliant score! Your little face through all of that. Couldn't | :25:36. | :25:43. | |
believe you were getting eights. Thank you! Well done. Call this | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
number later in the show if Anita's American smooth got under your skin | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
and you would love to see her dance again next Saturday. Are you | :25:51. | :25:57. | |
crying? No, no! Just a bit. Remember if you don't want our | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
celebrities to face the terror of missing next weekend's Hallowe'en | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
special, it's going to be good, then you know what to do. Your | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
votes will make all the difference. Your favourites need your votes. | :26:08. | :26:17. | |
Back to you, Bruce. Thank you. Next tonight it's Robbie | :26:17. | :26:24. | |
Savage and his partner, Ola. Very, very popular couple indeed. | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
Robbie is really enjoying the dancing but he told me some of the | :26:29. | :26:32. | |
old football habits are causing him problems. I said what do you mean? | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
He said at the end of the dance I keep trying to swap shirts with Ola. | :26:38. | :26:44. | |
I said, well you be careful, son. If James catches you, he will swap | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
something with you. Punches. He is a strong boy. Anyway, here they are | :26:48. | :26:58. | |
:26:58. | :27:02. | ||
Last week was absolutely brilliant. Robbie did a fabulous job again. | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
get 30, I am improving each week and that's all you can ask for. | :27:06. | :27:11. | |
are becoming one of the contenders in this competition. I never | :27:11. | :27:17. | |
thought I would be a contender. All I can do is improve. It shows hard | :27:17. | :27:23. | |
work pays off. To be the best in this competition Robbie's got to | :27:23. | :27:30. | |
sort out his nerves and I have a plan. Match day programmes, half- | :27:30. | :27:36. | |
time dancing with Robbie Savage! Ola thinks it will help my nerves | :27:36. | :27:40. | |
but I think she's the one that will be scared. I am so nervous. Now you | :27:40. | :27:44. | |
show how it feels like for me on Saturday. People think Craig is | :27:44. | :27:51. | |
hard to please but he is a pussy cat compared to 20,000 football | :27:51. | :28:01. | |
:28:01. | :28:02. | ||
fans. I am scared they're going to boo us. Me being on the football | :28:02. | :28:12. | |
:28:12. | :28:16. | ||
pitch of Reading is the equivalent of Ola being on the dance floor. | :28:16. | :28:21. | |
I have to say I really enjoyed it. First, they didn't boo us. I didn't | :28:21. | :28:26. | |
expect them to cheer. Dancing in front of 20,000 football fans, not | :28:26. | :28:36. | |
:28:36. | :28:37. | ||
a problem. Dancing on a Saturday night, terrifying. | :28:37. | :28:47. | |

Dancing the jive, Robbie Savage and Look at this. I love the bit on the | :30:30. | :30:38. | |
football field, that was marvellous. Well done, well done. You are good | :30:38. | :30:42. | |
at the kicks and flicks. That was his stock in trade. Get out of it. | :30:42. | :30:51. | |
Bruno. Robbie, because you are worth it. I have never seen anybody | :30:51. | :30:55. | |
working the Goldilocks like that. Not since Jerry Hall. -- golden | :30:55. | :31:05. | |

locks. Give it to me, Ola! Technically, it wasn't perfect. | :31:06. | :31:16. | |
:31:16. | :31:19. | ||
That is an understatement, but I All right. Craig? Sorry to spoil | :31:19. | :31:29. | |
:31:29. | :31:29. | ||
the mood. Plodding, kicks and flicks was sloppy. He wasn't | :31:29. | :31:34. | |
pointing his feet. But I absolutely adored the characterisation, I | :31:34. | :31:40. | |
thought you did that brilliantly and you went for it. You certainly | :31:40. | :31:50. | |
:31:50. | :31:55. | ||
went for it. Len? Listen, you loved it, the people loved it, I loved it. | :31:55. | :32:01. | |
No problem! Everybody loves it. Alesha? Everything the guys said, | :32:01. | :32:06. | |
the hair fluffing, the thrusting. Your energy was under different | :32:06. | :32:10. | |
level tonight, it was great to see you having such a good time, | :32:10. | :32:20. | |
:32:20. | :32:30. | ||
brilliant entertainment, well done. Yes! He shoots, he scores. We loved | :32:30. | :32:35. | |
it, they were on their feet in the ballroom. Did you love that? | :32:35. | :32:41. | |
Craig said, technically not the best, but I just loved it. | :32:41. | :32:46. | |
Brilliant. Your energy was amazing. Have you been surprised by the | :32:46. | :32:53. | |
amount of support you have got from football fans? Incredible. I have | :32:53. | :32:57. | |
to say Ola is a fantastic teacher. Gary Speed is here tonight. Wales | :32:57. | :33:07. | |

27 out of 40. Pick up the phones later. If you want to be Robbie to | :33:28. | :33:34. | |
be in the squad for next Saturday's big bull run match. Do you want | :33:34. | :33:40. | |
extra time? In tomorrow night's results show, it is crunch time as | :33:40. | :33:44. | |
a third couple will be leaving. But now, there's a dream performance | :33:45. | :33:51. | |
that you will not want to miss. Time now for our next couple, | :33:51. | :34:01. | |
:34:01. | :34:04. | ||
Russell Grant and his partner, By now, Russell was telling me that | :34:04. | :34:10. | |
because he did so well last week, Flavia got him a present. She got | :34:10. | :34:14. | |
him a special tracksuit made with the letter are all over it. When he | :34:14. | :34:20. | |
saw it, he said I can't wear it. He said I don't want to walk past | :34:20. | :34:30. | |
:34:30. | :34:33. | ||
people and hear then say look at I thought that was funny. Here they | :34:33. | :34:43. | |
Last week Latino loving Russell attempted his first ballroom dance, | :34:43. | :34:52. | |
Broadway style. I would advise a more masculine approach. I can't | :34:52. | :34:56. | |
stop laughing when I think about Craig's comments. A little more | :34:56. | :35:06. | |
:35:06. | :35:07. | ||
Rambo. A lot of celebrities were Rambo. Harry, Jason was in pink. | :35:07. | :35:15. | |
Can you imagine me as Rambo? I don't think so. This week I am | :35:15. | :35:23. | |
dancing the tango to the song Sweet Dreams. If I could just get a | :35:23. | :35:28. | |
little bit more sleep, maybe I could get some of my own. Perchance | :35:28. | :35:38. | |
:35:38. | :35:41. | ||
Waking Watty, it is time to dance. Really? How wonderful. This is like | :35:41. | :35:47. | |
a dream come true. # I am on top of the world looking | :35:47. | :35:56. | |
down on creation. I feel I'm on top of the world. You are, look. It is | :35:56. | :36:06. | |
:36:06. | :36:06. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds | :36:06. | :38:01. | |
Dancing the tango, Russell Grant Is he all right? Flavia, go and get | :38:01. | :38:11. | |
:38:11. | :38:11. | ||
him. How about that? Look at these people. Russell, you really | :38:11. | :38:17. | |
captured the nation. This is marvellous. I have never seen you | :38:17. | :38:21. | |
having such a good time either. Craig? I think it is very good that | :38:21. | :38:29. | |
you are giving Mickey's know a bit of a go, darling. However, those | :38:29. | :38:35. | |
shoulders, those ones, don't really belong. And your head didn't really | :38:35. | :38:41. | |
look as though it belonged to you sometimes. It belonged to us. | :38:41. | :38:49. | |
it was entertaining. Len? Your head was like that nodding dog think | :38:49. | :38:58. | |
sometimes. It was all too whimsical and airy fairy. Having said that, | :38:58. | :39:03. | |
there is a charm about you and you are very endearing. People like you | :39:03. | :39:11. | |
and I like you. That sums it up. Alesha? Russell, it wasn't the best | :39:11. | :39:14. | |
tango I have ever seen, but I appreciated your interpretation of | :39:14. | :39:22. | |
it. For me, you are too nice to do a menacing tango. I look forward to | :39:22. | :39:27. | |
seeing you in the jive. It is hard. You have already become a Strictly | :39:27. | :39:37. | |
:39:37. | :39:37. | ||
legend. Bruno? Russell, I think I've got it. From Sleeping Beauty | :39:37. | :39:43. | |
tonight terrors. It all went on in your mind. Twists and turns, the | :39:43. | :39:52. | |
horror of it. I thought it was brilliant! Insane but brilliant! | :39:52. | :40:02. | |
:40:02. | :40:06. | ||
Absolutely marvellous. Don't leave He's there! He's coming on tour. | :40:06. | :40:16. | |
:40:16. | :40:29. | ||
Dreams do come true on Strictly. You don't ever want to wake up from | :40:29. | :40:35. | |
this, do you? No, a bit of a nightmare, really. Sweet dreams! Of | :40:35. | :40:40. | |
the judges didn't think it was a nightmare. Bruno understood it. He | :40:40. | :40:45. | |
understood the whole story line. Happy days. What is the reaction | :40:45. | :40:51. | |
like from people when you're out and about? Unbelievable. People are | :40:51. | :40:56. | |
just so fantastic, they are so kind and generous. They walk in and | :40:56. | :41:02. | |
dance for us. People are just so fantastic. It is worth doing this | :41:02. | :41:05. | |
just to be in touch with the people again. Your loving every single | :41:05. | :41:15. | |
:41:15. | :41:35. | ||
24 out of 40. Halloway next week, what have you got for us? -- | :41:35. | :41:42. | |
Hallowe'en. I am back to Latin and it will be the samba. Your loving | :41:42. | :41:52. | |
:41:52. | :41:54. | ||
the Latin. I am losing the macho next week. Right. The number to | :41:54. | :42:04. | |
:42:04. | :42:11. | ||
If you think it is written in the stars for Russell. I have a feeling | :42:11. | :42:16. | |
he would like that. That is it, all of the couples have given their all | :42:16. | :42:26. | |
:42:26. | :42:38. | ||
to the cause and then some. Let's He remember, you can change that | :42:38. | :42:47. | |

reminder of tonight's cracking routines and the all-important | :43:09. | :43:19. | |
:43:19. | :43:19. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds | :43:19. | :47:02. | |
Wonderful. Great, all of you. I think you'll agree the standard | :47:02. | :47:06. | |
from our stars tonight was out of this world. Sadly the couple with | :47:06. | :47:10. | |
the lowest votes from the view was combined with the judges' scores | :47:10. | :47:16. | |
will be going home to put their feet up. But no one deserves to go, | :47:16. | :47:20. | |
I mean that. Make sure you pick up the phone and have your so because | :47:21. | :47:26. | |
it could all change. Nobody is safe. Your stars need you. In the results | :47:26. | :47:31. | |
