:00:07. > :00:13.Hello dance lovers. Welcome to Tuesday's It Takes Two. It's Bonn
:00:14. > :00:16.Fire Night and I have got some sparklers for you tonight. There
:00:17. > :00:20.were fireworks on the dance floor when they found themselves in the
:00:21. > :00:38.bottom two, Abbey and Aljaz are here.
:00:39. > :01:21.bottom two, Abbey and Aljaz are Corner. This is It Takes Two!
:01:22. > :01:30.From London, this is strictly: Strictly: It Takes Two. Please
:01:31. > :01:53.welcome your host Strictly: It Takes Two. Please
:01:54. > :02:01.impressive! Abbey, you have got me, and I tell you, you are here to
:02:02. > :02:06.stay. Just watch, smoothen out the transitions between each move, but
:02:07. > :02:09.the chemistry is brilliant. For someone who seven weeks ago had done
:02:10. > :02:22.no dancing, you are amazing. To get comments like that from the
:02:23. > :02:26.judges makes me really happy and I have the best teacher in the world.
:02:27. > :02:32.We will find out which of you will be back to dance again next week. I
:02:33. > :02:40.would like to save Abbey and Aljaz. Abbey and Aljaz. Abbey and Aljaz.
:02:41. > :02:58.Please welcome Abbey and Aljaz! Hello you lovely two. My,
:02:59. > :03:02.Please welcome Abbey and Aljaz! did Aljaz. Two seconds before our
:03:03. > :03:07.name got called I was like, I don't want to go home and I have never
:03:08. > :03:11.said that. We found ourselves in the bottom two. You could feel it in the
:03:12. > :03:16.air. Why do you think it is that you ended up in the bottom two? I think
:03:17. > :03:21.because Abbey is doing so well in terms of scores I think the public
:03:22. > :03:24.automatically think she's safe. It shows that voting is really, really
:03:25. > :03:28.important. We really need every single vote. Exactly. If you have a
:03:29. > :03:33.favourite you have to support them. Abbey, Rachel said when you found
:03:34. > :03:38.out you were both in the dance-off, she was adamant she was leaving. She
:03:39. > :03:44.had been there before. Did you have a feeling the judges would save you,
:03:45. > :03:48.how was that moment? It was... I think the judges genuinely based who
:03:49. > :04:11.they pick on... I can't talk! Sorry. and being up against her was
:04:12. > :04:15.horrible. A horrible situation. Cow tell. -- you could tell. Everyone
:04:16. > :04:22.was crying, it was emotional. Is it hard not to take it personally? I
:04:23. > :04:26.think so. You try your best. You get good scores off the judges and you
:04:27. > :04:29.find yourself in the bottom two and you are like, what have I done
:04:30. > :04:36.wrong? It makes you feel weird. It gives you a terrible fright. I don't
:04:37. > :04:39.want it to end yet. I know. Make t-shirts! You have a great
:04:40. > :04:44.connection on the dance floor. Sometimes in the training room it
:04:45. > :04:47.seems communication isn't always that straightforward. Do you find it
:04:48. > :04:50.difficult to understand me? Yeah. But I think that's more of an
:04:51. > :04:57.advantage because I can't understand. Thanks! How does it feel
:04:58. > :05:21.with shoes? Better. Better? No, better. Like up. Like up! I can't
:05:22. > :05:31.with shoes? Better. Better? No, though, don't they, though? They do.
:05:32. > :05:36.I think. I mean, it's so many don'ts and do in one sentence, it would be
:05:37. > :05:42.never in my grammar really, would it? You are so adorable. It's almost
:05:43. > :05:46.ridiculous. The Charleston you are doing this week. How is it going?
:05:47. > :05:53.It's a great dance. Loads of energy. We have a great song. It's Cabaret.
:05:54. > :05:59.We have little bowler hats and it's a cheeky fun dance. Superquick.
:06:00. > :06:04.Loads of hours in the practice room. You had me at Cabaret! The outfits
:06:05. > :06:10.will be amazing. Are you going to use your near-miss to spur it on and
:06:11. > :06:11.turn it around? I am going up and down. I am like, right I want to do
:06:12. > :06:32.it great and then a bit like... down. I am like, right I want to do
:06:33. > :06:36.how aring -- how are you going to build Abbey's confidence back up? I
:06:37. > :06:41.keep telling her she's doing an incredible job for someone that
:06:42. > :06:45.never danced before in six weeks she looks amazing. There's always bumps
:06:46. > :06:50.in life, we need to get through that one and need to enjoy the Strictly
:06:51. > :06:53.experience. I think, yeah, I just think she needs to keep doing what
:06:54. > :07:01.she's doing. She's doing a brim January job. -- brilliant job. When
:07:02. > :07:07.someone has a bad day, we need to watch that, bumps in life and carry
:07:08. > :07:12.on: How has the experience been for your family? Peter Crouch is just
:07:13. > :07:16.there by the way. How has it been for Peter and the family? It's an
:07:17. > :07:20.emotional experience for them. Everyone has loved every second. My
:07:21. > :07:40.daughter's obsessed with it. We have it on repeat every day in the
:07:41. > :07:44.daughter's obsessed with it. We have it up for Abbey and Aljaz.
:07:45. > :07:49.Saturday night brought us another week of dancing delights. Here to
:07:50. > :07:53.take a closer look at the routines it's Karen Hardy and her
:07:54. > :08:10.Choreography Corner. Welcome back, Karen. You look
:08:11. > :08:16.beautiful Thank you. I love your outfit. Great dancing this weekend.
:08:17. > :08:21.Hallowe'en show. Let's get straight on. Abbey and Aljaz, shocker in the
:08:22. > :08:25.bottom two. Great comments from Darcey. She said she needed to
:08:26. > :08:30.smoothen out the transitions between moves. Tell me more. We have to
:08:31. > :08:32.really emphasise that Abbey is not worthy of that bottom two yet. Her
:08:33. > :13:39.dancing this weekend I just feel really lucky actually to
:13:40. > :13:44.be here, to be dancing with you, to be getting that reception. It's
:13:45. > :13:51.just... I am pretty lucky. There you go, look at that! Already crying.
:13:52. > :13:58.Please welcome Natalie and Artem. We were laughing at you casually
:13:59. > :14:01.leaning on the door there. You clever cats. Well done. I am not
:14:02. > :14:06.sure if anyone mentioned this, you got the first 10s of the series!
:14:07. > :14:12.What a thrill. You must have been chuffed. Completely overwhelmed. It
:14:13. > :14:16.was a magical night. It was... The atmosphere was buzzing. Everyone was
:14:17. > :14:21.superexcited with all the costumes and the audience were really pumped
:14:22. > :14:24.up. It was just quite a special night. The perfect night. Artem,
:14:25. > :14:44.up. It was just quite a special not because... It is because it adds
:14:45. > :14:48.more pressure from now on. You have to keep going up. The highest score
:14:49. > :14:53.you get, the more difficult to top it up. People might think you are
:14:54. > :14:57.getting 10, why aren't you happy? I am happy because I am pleased for
:14:58. > :15:04.Natalie, she deserved a 10. Then saying that, it goes, oh, my, next
:15:05. > :15:08.week, what's it going to be? Just keep going up! What do you think got
:15:09. > :15:14.you the extra mark? Was there a little something that you felt this
:15:15. > :15:19.week that clicked into place? I just loved it. I mean, the whole
:15:20. > :15:26.atmosphere and the concept and we had a real story this week. We try
:15:27. > :15:33.and work on a story every week, but yeah, I just loved it. It felt
:15:34. > :15:52.really lovely. It's brilliant. Now let's talk about Len. He
:15:53. > :15:55.really lovely. It's brilliant. Now comment was. There is a fine line
:15:56. > :16:01.between telling a story through the dance and having rules applied and
:16:02. > :16:06.having song choice that it all works together and comes together as one.
:16:07. > :16:11.The difficulty is if you are in hold it's hard to do storiline, because
:16:12. > :16:17.it was a themed week like a Hallowe'en and we had specific
:16:18. > :16:23.characters to do, it was almost like crucial to do that. If it's - that
:16:24. > :16:27.wouldn't be done it would be pretty costumes, pretty bridge, lots of
:16:28. > :16:30.smoke on the floor. And just dancing. You kind of cheated a
:16:31. > :16:35.little bit but it was happen owe wean so it doesn't -- Hallowe'en so
:16:36. > :16:41.it doesn't matter? No! I wouldn't say that. I like it. A couple of
:16:42. > :16:43.people said you should have been penalised because it should have
:16:44. > :17:04.been more in hold, what do penalised because it should have
:17:05. > :17:10.the audience will relate to and find the dance emotionally xhekted --
:17:11. > :17:16.connected to, what do you choose? I am convinced, that was great. Taking
:17:17. > :17:21.chances and, well, that's what you receive. OK. Brilliant. That got
:17:22. > :17:26.intense there. We do know you listen well to Artem when he is telling you
:17:27. > :17:33.about choreography. We have noticed that you have been trying to squeeze
:17:34. > :17:38.in one or two of your own moves. Are you going to have me crawling out of
:17:39. > :17:44.a chair? Those chairs would be too thin I am afraid. You are going to
:17:45. > :17:51.be stuck... How very dare you! Let's try. Let's see. Let's give it a go.
:17:52. > :18:18.Come on then. go on. Do it smoothly then. Thanks.
:18:19. > :18:28.One, two, three, four, five, six, seven... Too late. She made her
:18:29. > :18:37.point. I love the fact you are going slightly mad. This week it's the
:18:38. > :18:42.jive. Lots of kicks and flicks. How is it going? Oh, I love it. I can't
:18:43. > :18:47.wait to get out there and be fierce on Saturday with it. We are dancing
:18:48. > :18:51.to Proud Mary and we are really excited. It's hard. It's fast and
:18:52. > :18:56.furious. If you miss a step it's kind of all over. Natalie can take
:18:57. > :19:05.it, she can do all these dances, she takes them in her stride... Are you
:19:06. > :19:23.pushing her harder? I think it's a matter, like I mentioned before,
:19:24. > :19:27.pushing her harder? I think it's a go for the harder routine. Sometimes
:19:28. > :19:33.it doesn't come across as effective. You need to find a contrast between
:19:34. > :19:36.light and shade that makes it interesting. I don't think it's
:19:37. > :19:40.about getting it harder, it's about getting it right. Good. I think you
:19:41. > :19:49.are right. He has a lot to say tonight! Kara was in the audience on
:19:50. > :19:55.Saturday, was it nice to have her support you? It was, because of
:19:56. > :19:59.schedule, it was really lovely. Good luck this weekend with your jive. It
:20:00. > :20:06.will be brilliant. Natalie and Artem!
:20:07. > :20:15.Now a treat for all my fellow shoe-aholics, we sent fashion
:20:16. > :20:34.designer and lecturer Oonagh O'Hagan to find out
:20:35. > :20:39.those perfect dance shoes. OK. This is where it all begins.
:20:40. > :20:44.This is where we make all the shoes here. What are we going to see
:20:45. > :20:51.today? A Latin shoe. You said you would make it in 45 minutes. OK,
:20:52. > :20:55.let's go. This is where the process will
:20:56. > :21:00.start. They've to cut a pattern for your shoes. It's like a giant pastry
:21:01. > :21:06.cutter. Yes. That's the back of the shoe. Now we are going to get it
:21:07. > :21:13.stitched. This would make a nice handbag, I have to say. Oh!
:21:14. > :21:25.OK, this is where we are going to do the insole part. Now we have all the
:21:26. > :21:44.pieces of the shoe we are going to put them together. Yes.
:21:45. > :23:30.Hello again Karen! I am so glad you are here. Let's start this session
:23:31. > :23:35.with Mark and Iveta. A disco doble. Bruno said it was fun but it didn't
:23:36. > :23:40.quite have the right content. Was there enough paso for you? Of all
:23:41. > :23:44.the ones I have seen so far this was somebody who I actually got to see
:23:45. > :23:46.the unique arm lines that we are after. Look, he has the arms, the
:23:47. > :24:06.curving. after. Look, he has the arms, the
:24:07. > :24:11.professional. She's being creative, wants a twist in the performance.
:24:12. > :24:16.Was it too long? Might have been. But overall, once again, I was quite
:24:17. > :24:21.pleased with that. Good work, Mark. Fiona and Anton and their
:24:22. > :24:27.Charleston. A lot of criticism over her timing, did you agree? A couple
:24:28. > :24:30.of timing issues. Charleston, the one they've done, had a lot of side
:24:31. > :24:38.by side elements. You get it slightly wrong and it will look out
:24:39. > :24:44.of sync. Play it back there weren't as many mistakes as implied.
:24:45. > :24:48.However, what was looked at was the monkey step. What is that? We are
:24:49. > :24:51.going to have a go. We will get everybody up. You should be up with
:24:52. > :25:19.me. Go on then. everybody up. You should be up with
:25:20. > :25:24.up! Let's get it! I can't stop! I love it. Sit down. Time is up. Demo
:25:25. > :25:29.over. I hope you did that at home. We are going to pick up on to make
:25:30. > :25:33.sure we are clear, see how we got down and into that step. With her
:25:34. > :25:38.Charleston it was too light, too fluffy. Get down and get into a
:25:39. > :25:44.Charleston and it's a lot of fun. As I saw. Ashley and Ola and the tango.
:25:45. > :25:48.Craig said he needs to sort his head out. What's wrong with it? The head
:25:49. > :25:54.position, if you go back a couple of weeks I said that needs to be sorted
:25:55. > :25:58.out. It's still Crowning forward. What I teach students sometimes,
:25:59. > :26:02.take your eyes out and put them on your chin. Of course. You are
:26:03. > :26:07.damaging your eyes are on your chin. It helps them to elevate. The
:26:08. > :26:25.trouble is he is using it to lead with. What I have
:26:26. > :26:28.celebrity boy going out with a topline and pro boy competing
:26:29. > :26:34.against each other, if he doesn't get that in, get that head out, he
:26:35. > :26:38.could look too weak. Eyes on chin. Everyone remember. Dance from the
:26:39. > :26:44.chin. Looking from your chin. We will all try that at home later.
:26:45. > :26:48.Dave and Karen and their jive. Bruno said it was non-existent. The first
:26:49. > :26:53.time I have seen Dave doing the actual steps that are required. Back
:26:54. > :26:56.rocks, OK, they're not the best. But it means he is improving because he
:26:57. > :27:00.is beginning to deliver the choreography. Actually he did really
:27:01. > :27:05.well for me this week. Well done, Dave. Thumbs up from Karen. Natalie
:27:06. > :27:11.and Artem and the waltz. First 10s of the series. Everyone was excited.
:27:12. > :27:17.Len did say the waltz was more of an American smooth. Was he right? I am
:27:18. > :27:35.100% behind Len here. Every year we criticise
:27:36. > :27:40.100% behind Len here. Every year we should have been for a minute and a
:27:41. > :27:45.half, we should have had a good 60, 7080 bars of dancing. I was a little
:27:46. > :27:50.disappointed. That said, when they did do that little moment of
:27:51. > :27:53.Viennese waltz it was still really good. We have to be really clear
:27:54. > :27:57.here, this is a Viennese waltz, it's not a show dance, not an American
:27:58. > :28:03.dance. They want to be creative with the music and let the... And it's
:28:04. > :28:07.Hallowe'en. It's still up to you to deliver the Viennese waltz.
:28:08. > :28:12.Otherwise he could be doing a rumba to that music, anything. The
:28:13. > :28:17.challenge was to do a Viennese waltz to that bit of music. This girl is
:28:18. > :28:21.amazing, I would liked to have seen it. I want her to show herself even
:28:22. > :28:28.more to the audience. Thank you for clearing that up. You are a goddess!
:28:29. > :28:29.It's Karen Hardy! That's it for tonight.
