Hello and welcome to Tuesday's It Takes Two. Tonight, it was a close

:00:00.:00:14.

shave for our bald Bond villain but he lives to dance another day. Mark

:00:15.:00:21.

and Iveta are here. They gave us Hollywood glamour, it's Strictly's

:00:22.:00:25.

answer to Fred and Ginger, Patrick and Anya are here. Here to give the

:00:26.:00:31.

weekend's choreography is our dance detective Karen Hardy. This is

:00:32.:00:34.

Strictly: It Takes Two. Hello and welcome to It Takes Two.

:00:35.:01:34.

It's Tuesday. Our remaining nine celebrities are breathing a Hugh

:01:35.:01:37.

sigh of relief, save in the knowledge they have one more week

:01:38.:01:40.

left in the competition. For Mark and Iveta it was almost the end of

:01:41.:01:43.

the line when they found themselves in the bottom two for the first

:01:44.:01:48.

time. Hear here next. First, here's a reminder of what happened. If only

:01:49.:01:53.

you had stroked the floor with your foot like you stroked your white

:01:54.:01:59.

pussy cat it would have been a stronger rumba. On the end of your

:02:00.:02:04.

arms are hands and it's your hands that need shaping. It's all very

:02:05.:02:07.

well to have beautiful arms which I think you achieved Georgeously, but

:02:08.:02:11.

-- gorgeously, but unfortunately there is no shaping. You tried

:02:12.:02:20.

Goldfinger, it ended up a fish finger. You are an actor and every

:02:21.:02:26.

dance you play a part. You come out with the character. I found the

:02:27.:02:38.

dance difficult all week. You can only listen to the judges and take

:02:39.:02:43.

it on board. Judges, it's time to decide. I would like to save Mark

:02:44.:02:50.

and Iveta. Mark and Iveta. Mark and Iveta. Please welcome Mark and

:02:51.:02:58.

Iveta. Can I say you were a brilliant Blofeld and the brilliant

:02:59.:03:02.

thing is you are going to Blackpool! You did have to survive the dreaded

:03:03.:03:08.

dance-off. First one for you. How was that experience and also going

:03:09.:03:11.

up against your mate, Dave? That was the worst thing. I sort of expected

:03:12.:03:16.

to be there. I deserved to be there. The dance wasn't the easiest dance

:03:17.:03:22.

and going up against Dave was the worst really. He is such a great guy

:03:23.:03:27.

and such an entertainer. Oh, like, no, of all the people. The two of

:03:28.:03:31.

you have become so close, how upset were you to say goodbye to him?

:03:32.:03:37.

Really upset. The thing is you realise it's an entertainment show.

:03:38.:03:41.

I was talking to him today on the phone and we are going to keep in

:03:42.:03:46.

touch. It's OK. He is OK, he is going to be all right. We were both

:03:47.:03:51.

laughing about it. Brilliant. I will miss him. We all miss him. Iveta,

:03:52.:04:02.

let's talk about the rumba. Len said very difficult dance. Was last week

:04:03.:04:05.

a struggle? At the beginning I thought it's going to be good for

:04:06.:04:09.

Mark because I think he can do anything. I think he can. She

:04:10.:04:13.

believes in you. It's a more difficult dance because it's slower

:04:14.:04:17.

so you have to create more actions and lines. And be in charge and be

:04:18.:04:21.

dominant. If you don't have enough it looks a bit still. I wasn't keen

:04:22.:04:28.

on the song, if I am honest. But sometimes you get given a song and

:04:29.:04:32.

you have to go with it. This is the thing. It's a romantic dance, the

:04:33.:04:39.

rumba. And that makes that quite difficult. It was a tricky one. It

:04:40.:04:44.

wasn't a funny one, wasn't a serious one. It was kind of... I didn't know

:04:45.:04:52.

where to place it really. Iveta always, always gears the

:04:53.:04:56.

choreography to me. That's the first thing she thinks about and that's

:04:57.:05:00.

why she's brilliant. She thinks of what I can do and works around that.

:05:01.:05:05.

The worst thing about Saturday was the fact that I felt like I let her

:05:06.:05:13.

down. I know, but, you know, you try 100% and because Iveta works so hard

:05:14.:05:17.

you think I want to do it and make sure she's smiling at the end. Well,

:05:18.:05:21.

you are still here and going to Blackpool. It's not all bad. We must

:05:22.:05:25.

speak about Iveta's outfit. Was that an outfit or was it sprayed on? You

:05:26.:05:31.

looked incredible. It was all sprayed on! Amazing. You look

:05:32.:05:38.

stunning tonight, as well. We are beginning to notice this signature

:05:39.:05:44.

move. We have seen it. Let's look. It is the looker-shooter leg lift.

:05:45.:05:53.

Look at that! Incredible. We have all been trying it at home and with

:05:54.:05:57.

varying degrees of success. Is it something you will ever attempt,

:05:58.:06:02.

Mark? Well, I taught her it actually. It's something I like to

:06:03.:06:05.

do. Not maybe on screen, but at home quite a lot. I can do it with both

:06:06.:06:10.

legs at the same time. OK. I don't think we could handle that. She's

:06:11.:06:14.

perfected it, you must be proud. Iveta is teaching you to dance but

:06:15.:06:19.

you are teaching her something in return. The local lingo. Take a

:06:20.:06:22.

look. I am learning the correct

:06:23.:06:27.

pronounceation. I will come back to you and I'll be speaking in a

:06:28.:06:34.

British accent. Iveta. Iveta. Well, I know how to say my name. Ivetaaa!

:06:35.:06:47.

All right? All right. All right, darling! All right, darling. Halloo!

:06:48.:07:04.

I'm going up t'pub My name is Michael cane. Who -- Caine. Who is

:07:05.:07:11.

that? Away the lads. We should start a language school. You two give us

:07:12.:07:18.

so much joy. You are going to Blackpool. It's your birthday at the

:07:19.:07:26.

weekend. We have lost him. You are doing a jive. My 21st on Saturday.

:07:27.:07:32.

Brilliant. A big birthday. It is a big one. How much fun is the jive

:07:33.:07:37.

going to be at Blackpool? It's great fun. We kind of set out yesterday to

:07:38.:07:44.

have fun and all I want to do this week is get back to what we love

:07:45.:07:47.

doing, creating something that's great fun and we can smile through

:07:48.:07:52.

it and not - do it for the people who supported us and have a great

:07:53.:07:56.

time. That's what we are going to do. Excellent. Iveta is giving me

:07:57.:08:11.

that look. No dinosaur? I asked her this weekend. Give it up for Mark

:08:12.:08:19.

and Iveta. She's a Florida-born fiery Cuban, he is a sexy Slovenian

:08:20.:08:33.

with dimples to die for. If you want to get to know more about two of our

:08:34.:08:41.

newest pros, look at this. Hello, takes takes. Welcome to our lives.

:08:42.:08:47.

Have a good day. You too. I will miss you. Miss you more. Love you.

:08:48.:09:00.

Bye. He's gone! This is our living room. And this is where we like to

:09:01.:09:10.

sit back and relax. This is my zen area.

:09:11.:09:20.

Got it! This is our shelving unit. Aljaz is

:09:21.:09:26.

obsessed with playing video games. This is all his video games,

:09:27.:09:29.

specifically soccer. Unfortunately, I don't really cook. So I don't have

:09:30.:09:37.

any cook books except for my first two from Dave and The Hairy Bikers,

:09:38.:09:40.

so thank you, Dave, very much. This is our fridge. Aljaz is obsessed

:09:41.:09:45.

with pineapple juice. He loves it. Can't live without ham. We have ham

:09:46.:09:49.

with crackers, with bread. Ham with whatever. Even ham with bananas.

:09:50.:09:56.

That remind me, I don't have more bananas. I have it with spaghetti,

:09:57.:10:01.

with soup. I ran out of bananas. I have to get some bananas. So, this

:10:02.:10:08.

is our bedroom. I am not going to show you too much of that.

:10:09.:10:16.

This is what I like to call my sentimental area. It has bits and

:10:17.:10:21.

bobs I really love. This is number one. His name is Little Ali. It was

:10:22.:10:28.

a gift given to me by Aljaz. I still have the note. I can't wait to see

:10:29.:10:32.

your beautiful face, here's a little thing to remind you of me, I love

:10:33.:10:37.

you. Aljaz doesn't know that while he is gone all day and I am here by

:10:38.:10:42.

myself just at home, I am actually quite the keen gamer.

:10:43.:10:56.

Now this is Aljaz and I's favourite part of the flat. It's the balcony

:10:57.:11:09.

because look at our view! You might be wondering why we have a

:11:10.:11:15.

low set of seats and high set. If you look at this from Janette's

:11:16.:11:22.

point of view, you see nothing. No bridge, no Eye, no Shard. If you

:11:23.:11:29.

move to the lovely bar stools now I can enjoy the coffee with a view.

:11:30.:11:35.

Right guys. Thank you for visiting, I hope you have enjoyed and learned

:11:36.:11:39.

and explored but I have serious gaming to do. So, get out! Bye, go

:11:40.:11:49.

on. See you. Thank you gorgeous, Janette. I will be round. This year

:11:50.:11:56.

there was a big fat F for choreography, that stands for fast

:11:57.:12:02.

footwork, flips and a bit of Fosse. Who brought along their A-game?

:12:03.:12:05.

Let's ask Karen. She is the diva of the dance floor,

:12:06.:12:17.

Queen of choreography, it's Karen Hardy! Hello, darling. Welcome back.

:12:18.:12:21.

What did you make of the overall choreography at the weekend? The

:12:22.:12:31.

S-word. Sensational. Bring the competition on. It was fabulous. I

:12:32.:12:36.

felt the competition has really begun now. There is a real fight.

:12:37.:12:41.

It's exciting. We are entering the 8th week. Are you still impressed by

:12:42.:12:45.

the same people at the beginning or is it changing? There is a few

:12:46.:12:51.

little changes. Always the boys start slowly and then whoosh!

:12:52.:12:56.

Patrick and Ben, keeping my eye on those two. Fantastic weekend we just

:12:57.:13:00.

had from them. It's the same when any young man learns to dance,

:13:01.:13:03.

they're nervous in the beginning but like driving that Ferrari, once

:13:04.:13:07.

they've got it, whoosh they want to show off! Let's talk about Ashley

:13:08.:13:12.

and Ola and the quickstep. Len said it's so difficult the quickstep

:13:13.:13:16.

because the top line has to be calm and feet has to work furiously

:13:17.:13:20.

underneath. How well did Ashley handle that? The dance of the swans,

:13:21.:13:25.

that's what I say. He was fantastic. Cool and calm at the top. And the

:13:26.:13:29.

feet were going like crazy. What did I love most? We all talked about -

:13:30.:13:38.

he mastered the top line. The lovely chassis and driving across that

:13:39.:13:43.

dance floor. Totally exposed to the judges. Beautiful top line

:13:44.:13:47.

maintained. Head held high. Big smile. You can see his character. I

:13:48.:13:51.

absolutely loved it. Well done, Ashley. He will be pleased that you

:13:52.:13:55.

are pleased. Susanna and Kevin and the waltz. You tweeted that you

:13:56.:14:02.

smelt a 10 and she got 9. Was she robbed and if so why? There are

:14:03.:14:06.

clearly no secrets in this world, that's all I can say. I had a little

:14:07.:14:11.

moment. I have listed exactly why this was worthy of a 10. There are

:14:12.:14:18.

eight reasons. First of all, difficult choreography. The

:14:19.:14:21.

fantastic chemistry between the two of them. The content had many

:14:22.:14:27.

difficult challenges from step to step. She's hugely improved her top

:14:28.:14:32.

line. She was wilting at the beginning. She moved well across the

:14:33.:14:35.

dance floor. Fantastic footwork. Are you still with me? Still with you.

:14:36.:14:41.

Excellent body contact. And the greatest thing of all, fast pivots

:14:42.:14:47.

that shot across the dance floor. If that's not enough, do I have to give

:14:48.:14:52.

you more reasons to give it a 10? It's a memory here, Mark and I

:14:53.:14:58.

didn't get 10s for a very long time. Could be a sign. You heard it here

:14:59.:15:07.

first. Fiona and Anton and the paso doble. Did you like it? It was

:15:08.:15:11.

interesting when she came out on to the dance floor and they finished I

:15:12.:15:16.

went, oh, this is fantastic. I loved it. We had the flap flamenco

:15:17.:15:25.

section. One thing missed out, the strength was not there because in

:15:26.:15:30.

the Latin dances we have to dance everything with our toes. Except in

:15:31.:15:36.

the paso doble. We use heel leads in the paso doble. If we use heel leads

:15:37.:15:41.

it gives a stronger more powerful image of movement across the dance

:15:42.:15:45.

floor. If you look back over how she danced everything was on toes. Even

:15:46.:15:50.

though it was animated and strong if she had put heel leads in she would

:15:51.:15:53.

have been that little bit stronger. Actually, I really loved it. Well

:15:54.:15:58.

done. Let's talk about Ben and Kristina and the jive. He is a big

:15:59.:16:02.

lad, did this go against him in this dance where you have to be light on

:16:03.:16:05.

your feet with a dance like this and could he have been lighter? As a

:16:06.:16:12.

judge and as a coach you have got to be doing trick work and looking at

:16:13.:16:16.

what's going on underneath. When I looked at this performance his feet

:16:17.:16:22.

were light and quick. He is a rugby player. They've got to be fast. I

:16:23.:16:25.

noticed the stiffness of the upper body and the arms were stuck with

:16:26.:16:32.

his legs. Dare I say, it's demo time. Thank goodness! We are taking

:16:33.:16:40.

to the dance floor. Lovely frock by the way. I have my mother's tea cosy

:16:41.:16:47.

on! Movements like the jive, when we learn first of all the arms are

:16:48.:16:49.

stiff and with the kick. What you have to do is learn to separate so

:16:50.:16:55.

we need the camera higher, there we go. Not my legs, up you go, camera.

:16:56.:17:02.

She's bossy! We need the hands moving. Light and free. You don't

:17:03.:17:07.

want everything going together. If he had done that, brilliant. He will

:17:08.:17:17.

take that on board. Sophie and Brendan and the Argentine tango, the

:17:18.:17:21.

first of the series, did it have everything you would expect? We have

:17:22.:17:25.

to look at this clip here. It's an amazing shot we have here. The use

:17:26.:17:28.

of the feet, the speed, and the height changes from down to up and

:17:29.:17:34.

into this incredible liftwork. The choreography of this was

:17:35.:17:38.

sensational. It really gave us a chance to help Sophie improve that

:17:39.:17:42.

characterisation that we are after from her. There you go. Thank you

:17:43.:17:47.

very much. Why didn't she score as highly do you think as her

:17:48.:17:50.

Charleston with this? Each dance has a different characterisation. I

:17:51.:17:56.

think that care-free cool image of the Charleston, the Flapper girl was

:17:57.:18:01.

more her style. The Argentine tango, I don't see Sophie as the lady of

:18:02.:18:06.

the night. She's too cool and calm. It's getting into character, as

:18:07.:18:12.

well, for her. But the dancing all-round, way up from last week.

:18:13.:18:16.

Mark and Iveta's rumba. Darcey said she wanted him to stroke the floor

:18:17.:18:20.

more with his foot. What does she mean? As I say to my students please

:18:21.:18:26.

clean my floor. The reason is not that I can't afford the cleaner,

:18:27.:18:30.

it's essential they learn to brush their feet on the floor across the

:18:31.:18:35.

floor without gapping, so the dust doesn't go underneath. This creates

:18:36.:18:39.

a fuller and beautiful movement on the dance floor. Shall I? You

:18:40.:18:46.

should. Let's go on to the dance floor. Right, we are going to use

:18:47.:18:49.

the steps Mark used which was the sliding door. What we need to see is

:18:50.:18:56.

that the feet stay on the floor at all times. They brush, use your

:18:57.:19:04.

knees. Clean that floor! It does need a clean actually. Even in high

:19:05.:19:10.

heeled suede boots! That's a floor well swept. Thank you very much.

:19:11.:19:17.

Abbey and Aljaz and the Charleston. Bruno said it was Bob Fosse

:19:18.:19:22.

influences, explain more. Brilliant. The classics moves from Fosse are si

:19:23.:19:27.

shuffles, rolling of the shoulders and those quirky bent in knee

:19:28.:19:35.

action. She had it all. One of the most classical things of all is you

:19:36.:19:39.

have to look sexy. She pulled the whole lot off. With the hair and the

:19:40.:19:45.

dress, the moves, I just love the entire performance. What a team.

:19:46.:19:50.

What a fightback. She was in the bottom two. Could have destroyed the

:19:51.:19:55.

two of them, but no. Came back fighting. How well did she handle

:19:56.:20:00.

the hat? I am glad you brought that up. With a prop, it's like a third

:20:01.:20:07.

partner. It did accidently fall off in the end, but I loved the use of

:20:08.:20:11.

it, the changing, the timings, it was on, it was off. Most

:20:12.:20:16.

performances start with the hat on and then throw it off to the

:20:17.:20:19.

audience. What was beautiful she danced with the hat and didn't look

:20:20.:20:23.

stressed at all. It was sensational. Well done that girl. Patrick and

:20:24.:20:29.

Anya and the American smooth. Would it have been 10 from you if it

:20:30.:20:33.

hadn't been for the incident at the end? Drum roll! It would have been a

:20:34.:20:42.

9.5. Controversy! I like that. I tell you why, just a little bit too

:20:43.:20:48.

gimmicky for me. Let me reword that, it was a sensational dance. It was

:20:49.:20:53.

incredible. But if I was going to give it a 10 I would want more

:20:54.:20:59.

dancing. That said, I have to say I love that bit of choreography on the

:21:00.:21:04.

stairs. How brilliant was that? The relationship between the two of

:21:05.:21:08.

them, the timings, the speed, the characters, the entire dance was

:21:09.:21:14.

fantastic. I loved it. As always, an absolute dream, give it up for Karen

:21:15.:21:30.

Hardy! On Saturday night Patrick and Anya took a gamble with their

:21:31.:21:37.

Vegas-themed American smooth and it paid off. Let's look at their

:21:38.:21:41.

performance. You are my movie star. Perfection. At the end you messed

:21:42.:21:50.

up! Take him to the Tower, that's the Tower Ballroom, Blackpool. You

:21:51.:21:56.

are the best male celebrity in this competition.

:21:57.:22:04.

I have no words! I quote Craig, best male... I don't think you knew how

:22:05.:22:13.

to take that. Thank you very much. It's his opinion, then I will take

:22:14.:22:18.

it. They may have been last out but they

:22:19.:22:22.

stole the show. Please welcome Patrick and Anya. Congratulations.

:22:23.:22:27.

Standout performance for you, Patrick, birthday boy. How does it

:22:28.:22:32.

feel to be top of the leader board? Incredible. Unbelievable. I could

:22:33.:22:36.

keep going. Amazing. Wonderful. Smashing. Super. You still have the

:22:37.:22:41.

sparkle in your eyes from Saturday night. Anya, you pulled out all the

:22:42.:22:46.

stops. You meant business, didn't you? I meant business. I was saying

:22:47.:22:50.

to Patrick, I am not going to hold anything back. We are going for it.

:22:51.:22:54.

We have the most amazing song. This is a - this is probably closest we

:22:55.:23:02.

can get to Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire. It was fantastic. I loved

:23:03.:23:07.

dancing to that track and doing all that smooth stuff. It's one of those

:23:08.:23:11.

moments sometimes on the show it comes together and you get that

:23:12.:23:14.

music and that outfit. Boom, off you go. Fantastic. Your face before you

:23:15.:23:21.

started dancing was incredible. You were totally zen. Were you getting

:23:22.:23:26.

into the zone? Yeah, I mean, I was in the character of, I want to dance

:23:27.:23:30.

with this woman here. She's stood there and I am going to grab her. It

:23:31.:23:34.

was all him. I did not teach him that. He can do that naturally. You

:23:35.:23:39.

are a lucky girl! Now, the judges obviously were gutted when you had

:23:40.:23:43.

the little fluff at the end. If you look at their faces here, so you are

:23:44.:23:48.

doing the dance. Oh, no! Look at Len! He is

:23:49.:23:56.

devastated. He doesn't actually move for about 20 minutes. He still

:23:57.:24:05.

hasn't moved. He is still there. This is how I felt. Is that how you

:24:06.:24:09.

were feeling a little bit? It was hard to understand what was

:24:10.:24:13.

happening. I knew that I got caught on the skirt. He was a true

:24:14.:24:18.

gentleman to be honest, he was there - I couldn't get up. At that point

:24:19.:24:23.

it's just, I don't know how I got there but you were holding me tight

:24:24.:24:29.

and I made it. It was a little flourish to finish with and I didn't

:24:30.:24:36.

know what was happening. Apart from Anya couldn't get up. I thought,

:24:37.:24:39.

well, don't worry, you are safe, it's fine. Goodness me. What means

:24:40.:24:44.

more to you after that, Craig saying you are the top male dancer or

:24:45.:24:51.

Darcey giving you a 10? Well, I can't really split them. Basically,

:24:52.:24:57.

the 10 is quite fantastic. When we think about the dance, the dance was

:24:58.:25:01.

- I loved it. I didn't think about anything. I just danced it. And

:25:02.:25:07.

loved every moment. Obviously, that little malfunction with the dress

:25:08.:25:12.

and skirt, well, we did our best. That's why Darcey gave you a 10, she

:25:13.:25:19.

thought you deserved it and dealt with that. If you make it to the

:25:20.:25:21.

finals is that a dance you would like to do again? If we make it... I

:25:22.:25:26.

would do that again, I would do it right now, I loved it! Now obviously

:25:27.:25:32.

in the studio on a Saturday night there you are, you are Fred Astaire.

:25:33.:25:36.

In the training room it's a different dance icon that you tend

:25:37.:25:41.

to... Have a look. I am such a big fan of Michael Jackson. I used to be

:25:42.:25:44.

able to do all that. # Beat it, beat it

:25:45.:25:53.

# No one wants to be defeated Fantastic. Get you and the moonwalk.

:25:54.:26:31.

This weekend you are going to the Tower Ballroom and you will be doing

:26:32.:26:35.

a samba. How is it going so far? Great, I think. Really? I think it's

:26:36.:26:43.

going great. It's like, yeah, you know, getting there. Great, I like

:26:44.:26:53.

that! He has got it. You are on the up and up. There's no stopping you.

:26:54.:27:00.

I quite like the track, it's Barry Manilow. Doing the samba? Yes.

:27:01.:27:04.

Extraordinary. It's going to be incredible. Exactly. Anything about

:27:05.:27:11.

the samba that worries you at all? Speed. That it's not as slow as I

:27:12.:27:16.

think. OK. All right. There's so many different rhythms with the

:27:17.:27:19.

samba. I am going to keep it traditional. I want to do basic. I

:27:20.:27:26.

want the judges to see the progress. That's what they seem to be liking.

:27:27.:27:30.

We are going to keep it very traditional. But fun. Also it's a

:27:31.:27:38.

vast floor at the Tower Ballroom, how are you going to cover all that,

:27:39.:27:42.

do you have to choreograph differently? Definitely using more

:27:43.:27:46.

space. We don't have restrictions. Samba, you can really travel a lot.

:27:47.:27:50.

But we travel as much as we can. It's all about rhythm in samba. I am

:27:51.:27:54.

going to worry about the rhythm He has that in leaps and bounds. You

:27:55.:27:59.

will be fine. You are looking so fit. On Saturday my friends were

:28:00.:28:04.

watching, and like, he is never 50. Look, it's shining through. Good

:28:05.:28:08.

luck this weekend. I think it will be glorious and well done on

:28:09.:28:16.

Saturday. Thank you. That's it for today. A big thank you to all my

:28:17.:28:19.

guests. Tomorrow I will be chatting Charleston with Abbey and Aljaz, and

:28:20.:28:26.

Ben and Kristina stop by for jive talking and Ian Waite stops by. Good

:28:27.:28:32.

night.
