:00:52. > :00:55.From London, this is Strictly Come Dancing Please welcome your host,
:00:56. > :00:57.Zoe Ball. It CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
:00:58. > :01:02.Like our couples, we're dressed to impress, have survived intensive
:01:03. > :01:05.training and will stop at nothing in delivering you a top scoring show!
:01:06. > :01:09.Well, check out these beauties adorning our green room tonight.
:01:10. > :01:11.Fresh from storming the dance floor on Saturday
:01:12. > :01:16.it's the sensational Louise and Kevin.
:01:17. > :01:25.And the downright saucy Will and Karen!
:01:26. > :01:29.Plus, a woman who never puts a foot wrong -
:01:30. > :01:32.well I'd hope not, she's a former world dance champion -
:01:33. > :01:41.But first, they went Loco in Acapulco on Saturday night
:01:42. > :01:43.but divided the judges with their cha-cha-cha.
:01:44. > :01:48.Maracas at the ready, it's Melvin and Janette!
:01:49. > :02:08.You captain Twort the festive mood of the dance but, I'm telling you,
:02:09. > :02:13.you forgot the hips. The cha-cha's a cheeky, fun dance. That's what you
:02:14. > :02:15.portrayed. The performance was down to a tee. Brilliant.
:02:16. > :02:31.Ready for it? Boom clam I love that move. Haven't quite got the hang of
:02:32. > :02:33.it yet. Smell your elbow. I like to smell my elbow. Well done on
:02:34. > :02:41.Saturday night. All of that in pink trousers! Yes,
:02:42. > :02:47.they were powerful. They were pretty bright. I felt like a human
:02:48. > :02:56.highlighter! That's exact Liz what it was like. After your performance,
:02:57. > :03:03.Pointless star Richard Osman said, Melvin is my favourite. The big man
:03:04. > :03:07.himself. Were you surprised by the response? Everyone was so kind
:03:08. > :03:13.online. I said to Janette, I want it to be fun. Enjoy it. We did that. We
:03:14. > :03:18.did. So much fun. I had loads of fun watching. The judges were talking
:03:19. > :03:22.about hip action. They gave you a bit of a hard time about it. Craig
:03:23. > :03:27.was talking about ironing boards being less stiff below. Meany! What
:03:28. > :03:35.did you think about the hip scenario? You always want people
:03:36. > :03:43.wanting more. We had mar ac-Cas, some brayer rows. Once the hips come
:03:44. > :03:49.into play, it'll be a problem! LAUGHTER We can't give you too much.
:03:50. > :03:53.We can't handle that too soon. A me fact response. We loved your
:03:54. > :03:58.gorgeous family, seeing them all together. What was their response?
:03:59. > :04:04.They mean everything to me. They were so proud, so happy I'm on the
:04:05. > :04:09.show. I went back, my dad said, well done, very good somehow se show. Not
:04:10. > :04:20.too sure about the trousers. They loved the performance. Half the
:04:21. > :04:25.Manraras are in tonight! Papa Manrara and your mama and sister.
:04:26. > :04:31.You get up at 4.00am. You look so fresh-faced. How is it all fitting
:04:32. > :04:34.in? I think it's the make-up. I only started drinking coffee since doing
:04:35. > :04:40.this show. Your first coffee? Really? I survived eight years of
:04:41. > :04:46.breakfast shows without coffee. I was like, how can I stay up. Janette
:04:47. > :04:51.was like, try this thing called coffee. It really helps out. On the
:04:52. > :04:56.radio, you've some musical connections. You had a top tip from
:04:57. > :05:07.lady Ga fwa. Took you aside and told you, this is what you need to do.
:05:08. > :05:13.She said turn your phone off, act like a ninja. Hinge quick? I don't
:05:14. > :05:18.want to come in and give you a karate chop. Maybe she meant I need
:05:19. > :05:25.to be a thing gentleman. We'll work on that. I've heard it is not just
:05:26. > :05:32.Melvin's dance move you're worried about but his wardrobe choices. Can
:05:33. > :05:37.I ask you a favour? Go a head. Next rehearsal, can you bring trousers
:05:38. > :05:44.instead of shorts. Why in It's a really funny look. It looks fine.
:05:45. > :05:49.What's wrong with this look? This will be the star. I feel Anton will
:05:50. > :05:54.be rocking this soon. Anton would never rock. Ballroom and shorts. I
:05:55. > :05:59.think she lass an issue with my legs. Chicken legs? It's not the
:06:00. > :06:07.chicken legs. After tomorrow, you'll never see my legs again! We love
:06:08. > :06:11.your little legs. I don't know what you wear with patent shoes with with
:06:12. > :06:18.a little heel. I thought, shorts has to be OK. I think tracksuit bottoms
:06:19. > :06:26.are just as bad. You wore a neon green shirt and shorts. Neon ping
:06:27. > :06:31.and green! Give the guy a break. We'll talk about Will's choices
:06:32. > :06:36.later on too. This week, the tango. Tell me about it. Real character
:06:37. > :06:40.dance? It's the opposite of what I've been learning the last three
:06:41. > :06:46.weeks. We're getting to grips with it. The opposite of the cha-cha-cha.
:06:47. > :06:51.Inspread of straight niece, bent knees. Heels not toes. So confusing.
:06:52. > :06:58.I agree. You're a cheeky chappie. Have you got a dark side. Give us
:06:59. > :07:05.the tango face? Are we convinced? He's getting there. I'm a little
:07:06. > :07:08.scared. Good luck for Saturday. I just gave it to you! You didn't even
:07:09. > :07:13.ask that time. It's Melvin Janette. Now, last weekend we saw our couples
:07:14. > :07:16.strut their stuff to the sounds of Bowie, waltz along to Whitney and
:07:17. > :07:20.get all sweaty with Lady Marmalady. But what songs will be rocking the
:07:21. > :07:23.Strictly dance floor this weekend? There's only one way to find out -
:07:24. > :07:29.it's time for Tunes on Tuesday. MUSIC: I'm In The Mood
:07:30. > :07:36.For Dancing by The Nolans. There are plenty of amazing tunes
:07:37. > :07:39.in store for this weekend's show. This track has been voted the most
:07:40. > :07:49.popular sport song ever But which of our couples will be
:07:50. > :07:54.hoping to jump to the top But will their performance be leaps
:07:55. > :08:10.and bounds ahead of the rest? Right, let's see what's next
:08:11. > :08:15.on my jukebox tonight. MUSIC: Perhaps, Perhaps,
:08:16. > :08:17.Perhaps by The Pussycat Dolls. Ooh, a slinky little
:08:18. > :08:19.number this one. It's Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps
:08:20. > :08:21.by the Pussycat Dolls - meow! Did you know the Doris Day version
:08:22. > :08:23.of this song was featured in the film
:08:24. > :08:25.Strictly Ballroom? Well, if you can't make your mind
:08:26. > :08:30.up, we'll never get started. But can they get top
:08:31. > :08:45.scores from the judges? Right, just enough time
:08:46. > :08:50.for one more tune. This track was, of course, featured
:08:51. > :09:02.in the hit film The Full Monty, But which couple will be hoping
:09:03. > :09:22.to raise temperatures Always wanted to do that behind
:09:23. > :09:24.Karen Clifton! You're going? I'm going this way. Thanks, guys. Here
:09:25. > :09:29.we go... They'll be performing a cha-cha-cha
:09:30. > :09:34.to this - Hot Stuff indeed! If you want to find out what songs
:09:35. > :09:39.the rest of our couples are dancing They wowed the judges
:09:40. > :10:05.on Saturday night. Style was absolutely perfect. Tell
:10:06. > :10:08.you what, that floated my boat totally. I mean that first dance,
:10:09. > :10:15.outstanding! Cheers cheers cheers What was it like opening
:10:16. > :10:26.Saturday night's show? How was it going out first on
:10:27. > :10:32.Saturday? I was petified. You've been there. That heart, I can't
:10:33. > :10:37.contain myself. I will want the ground to swallow me up whole. I
:10:38. > :10:42.said to Kevin coming down the stairs, I've forgotten the whole
:10:43. > :10:47.thing. As the VT was playing. Couldn't remember the routine. Just
:10:48. > :10:53.panicked. You go blank. You pray it doesn't happen on the floor. You
:10:54. > :10:59.looked so at ease doings that dance. It is getting through it, the jive,
:11:00. > :11:05.the stamina. The last bit where I'm running forward, it is pure joy of,
:11:06. > :11:13.I'm at the end. I'm still alive. So much love for you online. Mark Wix
:11:14. > :11:19.from Grimsby? Do you know him? I know him. He said Louise did really
:11:20. > :11:23.well to keep up with Kevin all the way through the fast routine. How
:11:24. > :11:29.difficult did you find it to master the jive? We had longer which was a
:11:30. > :11:34.bonus. I just tried to listen. Some days were harder than others. My
:11:35. > :11:38.body started aching. I started feeling my age, slightly. It was
:11:39. > :11:43.hard but I enjoyed it. It was good to get on with it. When they first
:11:44. > :11:48.told you you were doing a jive, week one. That's one people tend to build
:11:49. > :11:55.up to. Week one, what did you make of it? It's not easy. I decided I'm
:11:56. > :11:59.partnered with Louise Redknapp, I'm going to make it really difficult
:12:00. > :12:04.and throw loads of choreography at her. I thought, I'll make it really
:12:05. > :12:09.hard and simplify as we go on. She was really clever applying stuff. If
:12:10. > :12:13.she couldn't get something, she wanted to practise it over and over
:12:14. > :12:18.again. You've made a rod for your own back here? This week, I'm
:12:19. > :12:22.terrified. Dying a slow death in there. We'll get to this week's
:12:23. > :12:26.dance in a minute. You did get an 8 from Craig. He was pulling the 8s
:12:27. > :12:32.out. He was in such a lovely mood. Unbelievable. That must be good.
:12:33. > :12:36.Week one. He was generous with his 8s. Great to be part of that and get
:12:37. > :12:41.one. Incredible. The whole weekend was insane. The standard of everyone
:12:42. > :12:48.in that first week was incredible. I know. How will we follow that,
:12:49. > :12:54.scary? Extra congratulations to you, Kevin. Your highest score in week
:12:55. > :13:01.one. Get a little medal or badge or a balloon! This week, Viennese
:13:02. > :13:06.waltz. How's it going? How's it going, Louise? Everyone has this.
:13:07. > :13:12.You need a little bucket at the side of the studio. It's this torning.
:13:13. > :13:21.It's the turning forever, and the hold. I choreographed the end bit so
:13:22. > :13:25.I hold my hand to her face in case they throws up in my hand. How do
:13:26. > :13:30.you help people deal with the sickness as they're spinning around?
:13:31. > :13:34.Yeah, how do you? Not much to help, to be honest. You'll just feel sick
:13:35. > :13:42.and dizzy. It's just getting over it. Enjoy your Strictly journey.
:13:43. > :13:48.He's such a charmer. I thought he was dismissive about your pop star
:13:49. > :13:54.dancing? Nothing. I had a look at old pop individuals yes, sir. To see
:13:55. > :13:59.if there was anything I could use. Looked through them excited and
:14:00. > :14:02.thought, no. You will get your revenge, Louise. Enjoy the spinning.
:14:03. > :14:04.Always carry a bucket. Louise and Kevin.
:14:05. > :14:07.Now our couples' dance moves may look fabulous to our untrained eyes.
:14:08. > :14:09.But how do they fare under the strict gaze
:14:10. > :14:32.it's time for Karen's choreography corner!
:14:33. > :14:43.I love we get a double dollop. The dab. I'm not a natural at that dab.
:14:44. > :14:49.Karen, we're looking at Saturday's dances. We did Friday's yesterday.
:14:50. > :14:55.So much praise for everyone. We start with Louise and Kevin. The
:14:56. > :15:00.judges loved the 1940s jive routine. Bruno said this was a minor flaw.
:15:01. > :15:04.What was it? I'm not looking for it in week one. It was an incredible
:15:05. > :15:09.performance, incredible piece of choreography. Amazing. A tiny bit
:15:10. > :15:12.towards the end maybe she was get a little tired. When you're doing
:15:13. > :15:17.steps like this, turning kick board changes and into the stop and go
:15:18. > :15:21.check action, look, there's a tiny bit of wobble. Are we really going
:15:22. > :15:26.to say anything week one. This was fabulous. To open the show as well,
:15:27. > :15:31.I loved it. The swing, to have all of that? Cool relaxed. Her
:15:32. > :15:36.patternality is so sweet and genteel. The nice thing watching
:15:37. > :15:40.Louise, you feel confident. You can relax and enjoy her. Will and
:15:41. > :15:44.Karen's tango. It was incredible. I thought he really owned that dance
:15:45. > :15:45.floor. Len was talking a little about this hold being too wide. What
:15:46. > :15:56.does that mean? One of the strict technique things
:15:57. > :16:00.that we have two master is that the hands of the man comes slightly
:16:01. > :16:05.further past lady spine. The lady goes slightly more to the right of
:16:06. > :16:10.the man so it's a bit more cuddly and compact. This allows the lady to
:16:11. > :16:15.take her arm further round and down underneath the man's arm. A much
:16:16. > :16:18.more compact action, that said, a beautiful bit of action here where
:16:19. > :16:23.they were dancing up the floor, little freeze-frame, I know he won't
:16:24. > :16:27.like me doing this but we have to. Where she has her hand in a lovely
:16:28. > :16:32.position we would beat her slightly more across and his arm slightly
:16:33. > :16:36.further around to get the compactness. Once it around it get
:16:37. > :16:39.you further down into the knees, you can see he is towards the end of the
:16:40. > :16:47.dance coming slightly out at the knees. But it's week one and he was
:16:48. > :16:51.amazing. Fabulous, I love him. Moving on to Melvin and Janette,
:16:52. > :16:59.Bruno saying he forgot to use his hips, why are they so important?
:17:00. > :17:04.It's the adulation, the core of the music, we have two imagine we are in
:17:05. > :17:09.Cuba and an nightclub. I often say to gentlemen, it doesn't feel right
:17:10. > :17:17.in the beginning. I would say to Melvyn give it some swagger. But
:17:18. > :17:22.once the guy gets this he is going to be unstoppable, I love his energy
:17:23. > :17:26.and personality. Winning isn't only about being technically correct, he
:17:27. > :17:39.has a lot of personality and we love that. Ed and capture in the bottom
:17:40. > :17:43.two -- Ed and Katya. Pleasantly surprised, everyone was surprised at
:17:44. > :17:47.how good he was, what did you think? I had a vision of him shouting in
:17:48. > :17:53.Parliament and creating a storm and suddenly he came onto the ballroom
:17:54. > :17:59.dancing floor with such suave and grace. We have picked up the one to
:18:00. > :18:04.three rise and fall, not enough but we have to look at this. I think it
:18:05. > :18:14.is beautiful. Allowing the lady to go into her line. We are up and
:18:15. > :18:18.dancing, it is day two. Very silly, we always talk about rise and fall
:18:19. > :18:24.in the waltz so I thought we should take a few seconds to talk about it.
:18:25. > :18:30.Very simple board, site, together, back, side, together. This is what
:18:31. > :18:35.they have to think about, you commence to rise on one, you
:18:36. > :18:39.continue to rise on two, and three and at the end of three you have to
:18:40. > :18:44.go all the way down again. And we have to do it all again, commence to
:18:45. > :18:50.rise on one, then two and then three and then you have to be back down.
:18:51. > :18:57.Like the horses on the merry-go-round? Exactly! Ed got to
:18:58. > :19:02.number one and stopped counting. But still, week one, great stuff. To the
:19:03. > :19:13.top of the leaderboard, we have to talk about Daisy and Aljaz's waltz,
:19:14. > :19:20.Len giving nine points, stunning. In the nicest way, did anybody see this
:19:21. > :19:30.coming? And I love a surprise. It's the inside info, watched his face,
:19:31. > :19:34.the smile, is this not the cat that got the cream? He's basically saying
:19:35. > :19:40.watch out everyone, week one, look what is in my arms, I will show off
:19:41. > :19:47.and I will smile and see you in the final. I loved it. I thought it was
:19:48. > :19:55.fabulous. Moving on to Claudia and Ajay and their cha-cha-cha which was
:19:56. > :19:59.spectacular, Bruno warned her that in too many tricks can spoil the
:20:00. > :20:06.floor. I know you like to shape them first row dances, what do you think?
:20:07. > :20:10.She has abilities others won't have but I think what is important is
:20:11. > :20:14.when to use them. Week one I would want to see maybe an odd little trek
:20:15. > :20:18.but it had absolutely no relationship to that piece in the
:20:19. > :20:22.song. There was a big crescendo just afterwards but what upsets me is
:20:23. > :20:26.they did not pick up, she got the straight legs and the hip action all
:20:27. > :20:31.the way through the dance, they were going on about the tricks but they
:20:32. > :20:38.missed the fact she mastered the technical fundamentals. This will
:20:39. > :20:42.help her later on. Tameka and Gorka with the paso doble, I did not know
:20:43. > :20:47.which one to watch, it was spectacular. She did brilliantly, I
:20:48. > :20:53.adore her. Craig felt she was a bit more like a matador than a cape. I
:20:54. > :21:00.always get confused, what does that mean? The one thing the lady is not
:21:01. > :21:06.is the bull on the dance floor. But what I had here, I would have to
:21:07. > :21:11.say, I don't think he expected her to come out like this. This
:21:12. > :21:16.choreography, she is twisting, flicking the skirt, she has the arms
:21:17. > :21:21.and attitude, her choreography was high impact. Lots of direction
:21:22. > :21:25.changes. Week one, looking back over the series they all go in the same
:21:26. > :21:31.direction, watch out, I think it will be slightly different next
:21:32. > :21:36.week. I loved their outfits. Let's talk about Anastacia and Brendan's
:21:37. > :21:42.cha-cha-cha. A few little mistakes according to the judges, to be
:21:43. > :21:48.expected, did it matter? This is Anastascia, I would not argue with
:21:49. > :21:53.her with her voice alone. But that said she has a lot of flexibility. I
:21:54. > :21:57.have to pick up on this, the ease with which she does that,
:21:58. > :22:02.interacting with Brendan and already great teamwork. We always talk about
:22:03. > :22:05.teamwork, there is the piece at the end where it goes slightly wrong but
:22:06. > :22:10.Brendan is straight in, picks her up, she will be used to selling, she
:22:11. > :22:15.will perform and sell it and got back into it. It's a big change for
:22:16. > :22:23.her, this is Strictly UK and she has pizzazz, I think one more week. She
:22:24. > :22:40.will embrace it. Another high score to Danny and Oti. Len said it was a
:22:41. > :22:43.bit too stagey. I was gobsmacked, so much choreography, you could cut
:22:44. > :22:48.bits out and spread it over 12 weeks. But I think because there was
:22:49. > :22:52.so much you remember of the highlights, the classic Michael
:22:53. > :22:58.Jackson, there was so much in there. I think later on, let them come
:22:59. > :23:02.down, Oti is trying to work out what he can do. She has found out that
:23:03. > :23:10.this boy is talented, hubba hubba come to mamma. This is hilarious,
:23:11. > :23:14.you will get us all into trouble, so good to have you back! Karen Hardy!
:23:15. > :23:16.Time now to chat to our final couple.
:23:17. > :23:18.They closed Saturday night's show in spectacular fashion.
:23:19. > :23:38.For the drama, full of intent and purpose, everything that we love.
:23:39. > :23:43.The acting and interpretation were absolutely brilliant. Not quite
:23:44. > :23:45.checkmate but an excellent performance, well done.
:23:46. > :24:03.that they definitely saved the best until last.
:24:04. > :24:09.You must have been delighted with your performance?
:24:10. > :24:15.I was really pleased. It was quite stressful waiting until last and I
:24:16. > :24:20.said to you when I knew we were coming up, finally, we are doing it.
:24:21. > :24:26.The thing I was most pleased about was I enjoyed it and wanted to make
:24:27. > :24:36.Karen proud. And how proud are you? Really proud, we were fighting from
:24:37. > :24:40.the time we went out there. How were the nerves? You had to wait the
:24:41. > :24:46.whole of Friday, all of the build-up and then all of Saturday? How did
:24:47. > :24:50.you control yourself? A lot of heating the others! I went up to
:24:51. > :24:58.Greg and said I hate you because you have done your dance! The tables
:24:59. > :25:06.will turn. Karen, 30 points is your highest score in week one, well
