:00:21. > :00:26.Harry and Aliona did Greaseed lightning.

:00:26. > :00:31.Plus, the wait is up. Ian is back to give us his lowdown on this

:00:31. > :00:41.week's training in Waite's Wednesday warm-up. This is Strictly,

:00:41. > :01:08.

:01:08. > :01:15.It Takes Two.... Live from Television Centre, this

:01:15. > :01:20.is Strictly It Takes Two. Please welcome your host, it's Zoe Ball.

:01:20. > :01:25.Hello. Welcome to It Takes Two, the fourth

:01:25. > :01:29.weekend of live shows is rooming -- looming and there are 11 different

:01:29. > :01:33.dance styles on offer this weekend. We can look forward to the first

:01:33. > :01:36.pasos and American smooths of the series. For one woman, the hard

:01:36. > :01:44.work is starting to pay off. Lulu will be here with her partner

:01:44. > :01:51.Brendan next. First, here is how they looked on Saturday night.

:01:51. > :01:57.did it again. A great story, told brilliantly. Can't believe how good

:01:57. > :02:07.you are playing the injured you, seduced by the power of the dark.

:02:07. > :02:30.

:02:30. > :02:34.Illegal lifts will not be tolerated. The other judges should have done

:02:35. > :02:43.the same, penalised us more for the lift, but they liked it.

:02:43. > :02:49.They liked it a lot. Please welcome Lulu and Brendan.-- On the show

:02:49. > :02:53.yesterday, we had Bruce Oldfield here and OOnagh O'Hagan about

:02:53. > :02:57.fashions and we found a picture of you in the '60s and one of you on

:02:57. > :03:03.Saturday. You are the envy of every woman in town. You look better now!

:03:03. > :03:06.That's nice! Yes. What a nice thing to say. What's your secret? It's a

:03:06. > :03:11.compliment that. Do you eat something particularly? How do you

:03:11. > :03:18.look so good, we love it? You will have to reveal your secrets in a

:03:18. > :03:25.book? Yes, I have a book. Am I allowed to plug it?! OK. Let's talk

:03:25. > :03:30.about Saturday. Your rumba brought tears to my eyes. So relieved.

:03:30. > :03:34.enjoyed it. The illegal lift, of course, Karen Hardy said it was

:03:34. > :03:39.amazing even if illegal. Craig and Len disagreed, they were split,

:03:39. > :03:43.what were your thoughts? Do you want to speak? You put it in or you

:03:43. > :03:47.don't, you know. I expected a penalty, I've done plenty of them

:03:47. > :03:51.in the past as we all know and if you do it, you run the risk of

:03:51. > :03:53.getting low marks and therefore a much higher risk of leaving the

:03:53. > :03:58.competition. We discussed it beforehand and said it suits the

:03:58. > :04:02.music, it's got to go in. It's that crescendo, it yelped and screamed

:04:02. > :04:06.for something special and he provided it. And it was gorgeous

:04:06. > :04:10.and everybody did love it. But what did you think about the low marks?

:04:10. > :04:15.Were you worried about that, that that might make you go out? He said

:04:15. > :04:18.they would be, that's the chance you would take. I expected fives

:04:18. > :04:24.across-the-board so we were lucky to get away with it. I wasn't the

:04:24. > :04:28.only one who put a lift in on Saturday. There were other lifts.

:04:28. > :04:32.get caught out because I've always done it, but don't be offended if

:04:32. > :04:38.you don't like my lifts, it's something I like to do. I totally

:04:38. > :04:43.loved it. He laughs and I say I'm not Jennifer Grey but he's

:04:43. > :04:48.definitely Patrick Swayze. My girlfriends are so envious. I was

:04:49. > :04:54.swept off my feet, every woman wants that. Where is this

:04:54. > :04:58.confidence coming from, it's a change from two weeks ago? It's

:04:58. > :05:05.because of that incredible lift. He's tough, very tough. We know.

:05:05. > :05:10.I'm a gluten for punishment. I love it. So he's trying to teach me

:05:10. > :05:14.things and I'm getting them and feeling more confident and better.

:05:15. > :05:19.Are you pushing her? Is this a new teaching method for you? Lulu

:05:19. > :05:24.doesn't like it when I break things down too much. I think I'm at

:05:24. > :05:34.school. But you have to to get through to the nitty-gritty and I'm

:05:34. > :05:34.

:05:34. > :05:38.not prepared to go through just like that. This week, we are doing

:05:38. > :05:42.the Samba and it's looking really good. We are having so much fun.

:05:42. > :05:49.You have had trouble with Samba haven't you? You've gone out...

:05:49. > :05:53.Don't say that! Four weeks he's gone out during Samba. Break, break,

:05:53. > :05:57.break that? Yes, there is that small equation. Moving swiftly

:05:57. > :06:01.along. I don't want to know about it, change the subject. Samba is

:06:01. > :06:06.notoriously hard, so many different rhythms, speed changes. It's a

:06:07. > :06:09.crazy, manic dance and a lot of celebs struggle with it and my

:06:09. > :06:14.partners have been no exception but I'm starting to think it might be

:06:14. > :06:18.me. No, darling, never. Brendan sounded positive though and thinks

:06:18. > :06:22.you are doing well? We are having so much fun. It's just... Like I

:06:22. > :06:26.say, I really now, that's the breakthrough. You said what's

:06:26. > :06:30.happened, I think I'm now really having fun with this and the Samba

:06:30. > :06:37.is great. I'm crazy scared because we've got to get through next week

:06:37. > :06:41.and if we do, I have one day off because I'm on QVC, are you going

:06:41. > :06:45.to rehearse with me... This is what we call Lulu land. We want to talk

:06:45. > :06:50.about Lulu land. This is a little place that Lulu likes to go to when

:06:50. > :06:53.she's in the training room and Brendan calls it Lulu land.

:06:53. > :07:02.knows what is going through Lulu's head at that time when she goes

:07:02. > :07:12.into, as I like to say it, Lulu land? Argh... She's like an

:07:12. > :07:17.

:07:17. > :07:27.excitable child. I'm flying.... What foot? Pfftt. Good girl! What

:07:27. > :07:29.

:07:29. > :07:36.was that? Skippy jumpy... Left foot first, right. Da-da... Shut up!

:07:36. > :07:41.Don't kick off on me, please. I take myself too seriously.

:07:41. > :07:43.I don't know how he stands it. That's the truth of the matter.

:07:43. > :07:47.She's absolutely mental all the time. I'll be talking to her all

:07:47. > :07:51.the time and I have a conversation with myself because she'll go, what

:07:51. > :07:55.did you say. Bonkers. I feel bad for him. This week you are doing

:07:55. > :07:59.the Samba. How are you going to avoid going out in Lulu stage mood

:07:59. > :08:05.and not the rock chick one? This is a very good point. It's about the

:08:05. > :08:10.focus, it's about hard work, hard work, hard work and being in Samba

:08:10. > :08:14.land. Lulu land, Samba land. Focus is a big point and it's something

:08:14. > :08:18.that's growing as we develop in our relationship and our dance, we are

:08:18. > :08:22.starting to understand why Lulu goes in and out of this little Lulu

:08:22. > :08:28.land. When I get absolutely panicked, nothing happens, I really

:08:28. > :08:32.can get very panicked and it reminds me of being at school, if I

:08:32. > :08:36.have an exam, I can never pass because I freeze or start making

:08:36. > :08:42.funny noises. Fingers crossed on Saturday you are going to break

:08:42. > :08:44.that Samba. Last year I was fine so there is no curse. We have faith in

:08:44. > :08:49.you. Lulu and Brendan! Thank you.

:08:49. > :08:59.Now we've got another it take twos teaser for you. Can you guess who

:08:59. > :09:03.

:09:03. > :09:10.it is dancing in disguise? -- It Dancers in disguise. # Who let the

:09:10. > :09:17.dogs out? # Who let the dogs out?

:09:17. > :09:20.# # Who let the dogs out?... # is the dancer in disguise? Find out

:09:20. > :09:30.later. It's that time of the week to cast a spotlight on training.

:09:30. > :09:37.

:09:37. > :09:41.Here he is, my midweek marvel, Ian Waite.

:09:41. > :09:45.How are you this week, Sir? Feeling amazing. Did you enjoy Broadway

:09:45. > :09:49.week? Wasn't it great. You thought that was good. This weeks, we have

:09:49. > :09:52.11 different styles of dancing, so let's have a look at some of the

:09:52. > :09:58.couples in training. Our first American smooth is being done by

:09:58. > :10:03.Anita and Robin? Yes, Anita, American smooth is very obviously

:10:03. > :10:09.smooth like it says. Sort of old Hollywood, is that American smooth?

:10:09. > :10:14.It is, yes. When I said smooth, I would like to see Anita be a bit

:10:14. > :10:19.more smooth in the action in her knees, the softening of the knees

:10:19. > :10:25.which creates a bit more fluidity. But here I have stopped it I'm

:10:25. > :10:29.highlighting her hand there. What's wrong with her hand? She's grabing

:10:29. > :10:33.hold of Robin and I would like to see a more refined feminine hand

:10:33. > :10:37.all the time, trying not to grab him quite so much. It's difficult

:10:37. > :10:41.though because sometimes you are grabbing on in fear? Yes. Clutching

:10:41. > :10:47.on for dear life. Yes, most of the time you were. Thank you, let's not

:10:47. > :10:50.go back there. Don't start! Nancy and an none. I cannot wait. They're

:10:50. > :10:56.doing the Paso Doble this week. I think she was made for this dance

:10:56. > :11:00.frankly. Let's talk about the positives first. Yes, good. It's a

:11:00. > :11:04.sticato dance so suits her very well and she's doing good heel

:11:04. > :11:10.leads which is fantastic. She's wobbling about in a lot of places

:11:10. > :11:16.and I believe if I was to stop it there and I'm going to do this,

:11:17. > :11:21.highlight that and I'm going to do that, you see. Pointing to...

:11:21. > :11:26.point at a woman's... Tummy! needs to make the centre stronger

:11:26. > :11:30.and I think that will improve her overall balance. It gets a bit

:11:31. > :11:35.wibbly wobbly. We are talking about core exercise, sit-ups and stuff

:11:35. > :11:40.like that? It will improve her stance. James has been doing that

:11:40. > :11:43.with Alex, hasn't he. Look at her pins though, amazing. Holly and

:11:43. > :11:47.Artem, they've done Latin and they're back in the ballroom and

:11:47. > :11:52.doing the Viennese waltz. Not a lot of this clip here, it's at the

:11:52. > :11:57.beginning but there is some interesting arm-ography there.

:11:57. > :12:01.make these words up! It's a great word though. Slowing it down, very

:12:01. > :12:04.interesting. I think that's very good a thing to do at the beginning

:12:04. > :12:11.of a routine if your partner's nervous because you are keeping

:12:12. > :12:17.hold of them all the time. As you know from our routine, Zoe, I never

:12:17. > :12:21.let go of you. Apart from once in the Paso Doble which was a disaster.

:12:21. > :12:26.We haven't seen much of the ballroom steps yet. Alex and James

:12:27. > :12:35.doing the rumba. Rumba is one of James's favourite dances? This is

:12:35. > :12:39.looking like Ravel's Bollero at the start. She's doing a good job.

:12:40. > :12:44.James is very clever because he makes his rumbas very controlled so

:12:44. > :12:48.there's not a lot of room for error. As you can see, she's doing all the

:12:48. > :12:52.moves lovely. What I'm more concerned about is, I would like to

:12:52. > :12:56.see Alex let loose a little bit more. What I mean by that is, she

:12:56. > :12:59.needs to release in the body because it can look... And I've

:12:59. > :13:03.said this again and again and again, she's doing brilliantly, but I

:13:03. > :13:06.would like to see more fluidity. It's so hard, it's like stand up

:13:06. > :13:11.straight, relax, give in, keep your legs straight, so much to remember.

:13:11. > :13:18.It is, it is. For your little head. Obviously it's only Tuesday that

:13:18. > :13:21.training. She's improving every week. She is. She was glorious on

:13:22. > :13:25.Saturday. Chelsee and Pasha? concerned about her hold. She's

:13:25. > :13:29.holding on to him like anything. would, given half the chance.

:13:29. > :13:34.steps were all wrong in the running step. This charleston step was very

:13:34. > :13:41.good. The runs now, I'm going to stop it just here and you are going

:13:41. > :13:46.to see. Look, her elbow is dropping off his right arm. I would like to

:13:46. > :13:50.see her elbow a little bit held aloft so that she's holding her own

:13:50. > :13:54.arm up. Elbows up? Yes, because she's dropping that arm off and

:13:54. > :13:57.that's what's creating that claw. That's the kind of thing Len will

:13:58. > :14:02.spot isn't it and he'll mark that down. That was wrong. What are you

:14:02. > :14:07.doing with your machine? I was trying to do that and show you the

:14:07. > :14:12.law. Claw. So we want and an elegant, elegant hand. Shall we

:14:12. > :14:16.talk about the boys later on? that would be good. Ian Waite,

:14:16. > :14:20.isn't he gorgeous. Len loved Audley's top half in the quickstep

:14:20. > :14:24.but was less impressed with below the belt. Audley and Natalie are

:14:24. > :14:27.here in a moment and here is a reminder of how they did at the

:14:27. > :14:31.weekend. I thought you were going to be all

:14:31. > :14:36.heavy but it was great. From the waist up, you were joyful and full

:14:36. > :14:40.of verve. It's from the waist down we've got to get a bit better in

:14:40. > :14:44.the footwork. You've got the right attitude for the quickstep, full of

:14:44. > :14:47.attitude, great to see. You are the size of a surf board and you have

:14:47. > :14:57.to navigate one of the most difficult dances in the ballroom.

:14:57. > :14:57.

:14:57. > :15:02.You did a fantastic job, very well. Yay, we got a seven! Really saw the

:15:02. > :15:09.positives in our dance. This's all you can hope for is to improve

:15:09. > :15:14.every week and have fun, so we are on the right track.

:15:14. > :15:18.Please welcome Audley and Natalie. APPLAUSE Lovely to see you both.

:15:18. > :15:22.You are smiling. Dorothy's been in touch online and says she loves

:15:22. > :15:26.your smile, Audley, loves it. Jane says she loves you're attitude, so

:15:26. > :15:31.it's all good from everybody watching at home. Were you relieved

:15:31. > :15:35.to get the quickstep out the way? It's a tricky dance isn't it?

:15:35. > :15:38.tricky. I really enjoyed it though, but we've gone on to the hardest

:15:38. > :15:42.dance this week, but I'm just glad we got through this and I'm glad I

:15:42. > :15:45.didn't fall over because I almost did at the end. You said though

:15:45. > :15:51.didn't you, one day you would fall over your feet? At some point I was

:15:52. > :15:55.going to fall over my feet. Nicely recovered though? Yes, he didn't

:15:55. > :16:00.fall over. Just a little glitch of a stumble. I didn't notice it until

:16:01. > :16:05.I watched it back. You must have been relieved not to be in the

:16:05. > :16:11.bottom two? I could have sworn we were going to be in the bottom two

:16:11. > :16:16.again, I told him to prepare himself. When we got called out

:16:16. > :16:22.first, I've never screamed out so much. I had to tell her to calm

:16:22. > :16:26.down. I was going yay backstage and trod on your foot. Calm down, dear.

:16:26. > :16:31.Bless! Now, Len said he's a bit worried

:16:31. > :16:37.about the lower half. How much do you think Audley's footwork has

:16:37. > :16:42.improved? Look, we've been working on it hours a day, every week.

:16:42. > :16:46.There's a major improvement, that's all we can ask for. My Achilles is

:16:46. > :16:50.killing me, so much rise and fall, rise and fall, rise and fall, I'm

:16:50. > :16:55.18 and a half stone with my big feet, rise and fall is not easy for

:16:55. > :16:59.me.? You've lost weight though haven't you? In four-and-a-half

:16:59. > :17:04.weeks I've lost a stone so I'm almost fighting fit. Almost, not

:17:04. > :17:08.quite. Does this mean you might get back in the ring at some point?

:17:08. > :17:13.Definitely, 012, one more year, give it another shot. Thank you

:17:13. > :17:17.Strictly for helping me get into shape. Yeah, I know, we don't mind,

:17:17. > :17:20.we'll take all the credit. You were taking to David Haye and saying you

:17:20. > :17:24.want to lose weight on Twitter weren't you saying you want to do

:17:24. > :17:27.dancing? This would be a good show for David Haye to do next year,

:17:27. > :17:35.he's now retired, if you are watching, come on the show next

:17:35. > :17:38.year. Joey, on the phones to David Haye. Great show, great dancing.

:17:38. > :17:45.really love your positive mental attitude here and we love the way

:17:45. > :17:51.you turned it around. Cast your eyes over this. The odds were

:17:51. > :17:56.stacked against him. He was a man out of his comfort zone. Plummeted

:17:56. > :18:01.into a world of dance. Feet the size of surf boards. When you run

:18:01. > :18:09.in the dance room, you can't run like a normal person. My confidence

:18:09. > :18:14.level rielgts now is a bit dented - - right now. But there was one

:18:14. > :18:22.woman who believed in him. I want you to just let go. Five, six,

:18:22. > :18:26.seven, eight... She set him the biggest challenge of his life.

:18:26. > :18:30.could be absolutely brilliant together. And he rose to the

:18:30. > :18:40.destiny. That was the appetiser, this is main course, time to get

:18:40. > :18:42.

:18:42. > :18:47.serious. Nice! How good were you? Feeling confident now? You are a

:18:48. > :18:54.good teacher and I'm a good student. I'm so proud of you. Nobody puts

:18:54. > :18:58.Audley in the corner! That was nice. Nobody puts Audley

:18:58. > :19:01.in the corner. Sometimes but not often! We must talk about the

:19:01. > :19:05.foxtrot you are doing this week. You thought the quickstep was hard,

:19:05. > :19:08.foxtrot really tough? I'll take it to a whole new level. The rise and

:19:08. > :19:11.fall is going to give me a chance to make it, I'm going to make it or

:19:11. > :19:15.break it this week because the foxtrot I can't hide, I have to be

:19:15. > :19:19.able to do that ride and fall, so there's goinging to be no hiding

:19:19. > :19:23.for me this week, I'm working hard and will give it my all. Toughest

:19:23. > :19:28.dance for me. It's a real tough dance for boys to do. Good luck

:19:28. > :19:33.with your fancy foxtrot, I'm sure it will be amazing. Keep it coming

:19:33. > :19:37.Audley and Natalie. Time now to see how the other men

:19:37. > :19:44.are getting on in training and, for me to do a mad dash in the stoorbgs

:19:44. > :19:51.Ian is back with more Waite's Wednesday Warm Up. - mad dash

:19:51. > :19:55.across the studio. Here we two! Let's talk about the

:19:55. > :20:02.men's training, Ian. We have got the Paso Doble and remembering from

:20:02. > :20:06.years gone birbgs Austin Haley, amazing in his bolero jacket --

:20:06. > :20:12.years gone by. Jason is doing the pass sew, he's been the golden boy,

:20:12. > :20:15.top of the leaderboard, how do you think he's going to fare with this?

:20:15. > :20:18.Fantastic choreography from Kristina here yet again. Concerned

:20:18. > :20:23.about his arms, to be honest. I want to see a lot more shaping from

:20:23. > :20:29.his arms. So I want to see every arm that he produces, it has to be

:20:29. > :20:34.curved. He's got to be the matador bullfighter, hasn't he? Yes, even

:20:34. > :20:41.when he's turning her, I want to see the curves. Also, come here,

:20:41. > :20:47.darling. Not very good at pass sew, forgive me. Also... Told you.

:20:47. > :20:52.together. Keep the elbows up. up, OK. That will create the shape,

:20:52. > :20:58.OK? Yes. Kristina was doing it right. He's a pro, I'm hardly a pro.

:20:58. > :21:05.It's been a few years! Keep the arms up and create the shape.

:21:05. > :21:12.Mr Donovan take note. Rory and Erin are doing the cha-cha that and did

:21:12. > :21:16.so well last week. If anybody can turn Rory into a dancer Erin will.

:21:16. > :21:20.I've stopped it here because what I feel with Rory is that he's

:21:20. > :21:24.learning the steps but he really needs to choreograph the arms as

:21:24. > :21:29.well. Really, he needs to make sure he's making really, really strong

:21:29. > :21:34.shapes with the arms, really strong hands and almost like every arm

:21:34. > :21:38.that he produces, it's got to be deliberate. At the moment you

:21:38. > :21:40.know... To have a finish? It's kind of there but not enough. It's

:21:40. > :21:43.difficult because you are trying to remember the steps and sometimes

:21:44. > :21:46.you do forget about your arms because you are so worried about

:21:47. > :21:49.remembering that bit and you have got to connect them? And the

:21:49. > :21:53.pressure and everything else. I think it's important to programme

:21:53. > :22:01.those at the same time. OK, from the beginning. Robbie and

:22:01. > :22:05.Ola, what dance are they doing this week? The jive. Robbie is a big

:22:05. > :22:10.surprise to me because every week, he's doing really well with this

:22:10. > :22:14.jive, by is a surprise because it's a fast dance, there's lots of

:22:14. > :22:18.choreography and steps, but the thing I'm most impressed with is

:22:18. > :22:27.the fact that he really looks as though he's enjoying it now. Who

:22:27. > :22:31.would have thought a big butch football player, nearly said old

:22:31. > :22:36.rugby player. He's not old. young, and he's loving it. He's

:22:36. > :22:40.here on the show tomorrow to talk about it. Lulu said how much she's

:22:40. > :22:44.enjoying it and Audley. Everyone's falling in love with it at this

:22:44. > :22:48.point. After the first weeks of the nerves, now they're starting to

:22:48. > :22:53.relax into it and enjoy it. Now it gets really tough because we don't

:22:53. > :22:58.want anyone to go home. Russell and Flavia. He's tangoing in a tank

:22:58. > :23:02.top! I love that boy. Doesn't he look fabulous. I would like to see

:23:02. > :23:10.his shoulders down a bit in hold and elbows up, so he's creating

:23:10. > :23:15.more of a T hch shape. -- T-shape. Have we got time for the dip. Do it,

:23:15. > :23:18.darling. Beautiful. Now watch what happens. Flavia changes the hold

:23:18. > :23:25.and now this is the first time we've ever seen this on Strictly

:23:25. > :23:29.Come Dancing! What? He is dancing lady. Yay. He's being the lady.

:23:29. > :23:33.celebrity as has changed sex during the dance. That's the first time we

:23:33. > :23:37.have ever seen that. Craig said he wanted him to get more masculine.

:23:37. > :23:41.Do you think this is it? I don't think this is the way to do it,

:23:41. > :23:47.but... Especially with his face as well. Look at that. But no, he's

:23:47. > :23:50.doing a couple of steps as the lady, as you can see, but I think it's a

:23:50. > :23:54.bit tongue-in-cheek. On the whole, encouraged by the training this

:23:54. > :23:56.week, looking good? Yes, it's going to be an exciting show and all the

:23:56. > :24:00.different styles to compare is great.

:24:00. > :24:06.Can't wait. Come back next week? Yes, hope so.

:24:06. > :24:16.Thank you, gorgeous Ian Waite. Harry and Aliona are here next.

:24:16. > :24:19.

:24:19. > :24:23.Here is how they got pulses racing at the weekend. Harry, you have

:24:23. > :24:27.finally arrived. Tell you what, I've f I'm very

:24:27. > :24:32.impressed. That's your best dance. Well done. So good to see you

:24:32. > :24:38.having fun and letting go. When rp driving, you were right on the

:24:38. > :24:47.money. -- when you were driving. Grease leather clad, ripping

:24:47. > :24:51.muscles, action-packed expressions. I almost hate you. Apparently, I've

:24:51. > :24:58.arrived, so this is good news. I have been here for four weeks, but

:24:58. > :25:05.Craig has finally noticed me, so hopefully I can keep this up.

:25:05. > :25:09.Oh, boy, has he arrived! Harry and Aliona, welcome to the show!

:25:09. > :25:14.What a Saturday night it was for you, young Harry. I tell you, you

:25:14. > :25:22.had a nine, got another standing ovation and you got to be Danny

:25:22. > :25:24.Zuko at last. Well done. How much did you enjoy it? Loved it, really

:25:24. > :25:28.enjoyed myself. For me, that's the most important thing. I want to

:25:28. > :25:34.impress the judges and for the audience to enjoy it, but for me to

:25:34. > :25:37.go out there and have fun and not be terrified was great. It really

:25:37. > :25:41.came across how much you were enjoying it. Wasn't your friend Ben

:25:41. > :25:46.who played Danny when you didn't get the part there? Yes, he was

:25:46. > :25:51.there watching. What did he make of it? He loved it and loved the whole

:25:51. > :25:55.show and I was watching him when everyone else was dancing and he

:25:55. > :25:58.was clapping and he's hooked now. What are the band making of it as

:25:58. > :26:03.well? Aren't the boys watching? They've been there for the first

:26:03. > :26:08.two weeks, they are away writing a new album at the moment. Wut you,

:26:08. > :26:13.the drummer? -- without you? Yes, they were there watching and when I

:26:13. > :26:19.rung them, they said they were in some lake house miles away, just a

:26:19. > :26:24.house phone, no phone reception and they said hi, I said hi and they

:26:24. > :26:29.were like yay and they realised I couldn't hear them, but yes. He's

:26:29. > :26:36.on the telly. Were you pleased with Harry's performance? Extremely,

:26:36. > :26:40.because if he enjoy himself, I can let go and enjoy myself and we

:26:40. > :26:45.danced equally together and that makes the best performance.

:26:45. > :26:49.really does. How much does getting into a character help with a dance

:26:49. > :26:55.like that? Really helps. You can lose yourself in it and really

:26:55. > :26:58.perform it and pretend you are someone else. That works for me.

:26:58. > :27:02.This week is a little different though. Total change of pace. You

:27:02. > :27:07.are going from the jive to the waltz. Aliona, what character are

:27:07. > :27:12.you going to give character to help him? Danny Zuko again? Yes, it's

:27:12. > :27:17.Danny Zuko, but in the part where he's just spending the summer with

:27:17. > :27:23.Sandy when she's the nice girl. Away from his mates. Yes, he's the

:27:23. > :27:28.nice one, yes, that's the part we are aiming for. Flattened hair?

:27:28. > :27:34.the gentleman. Bless you. So many people online have been talking

:27:34. > :27:38.about your physique, the judges, even my friend Lara is obsessed

:27:38. > :27:44.with you. Are you fitter now than when you started the show? Have you

:27:44. > :27:50.noticed the difference? I think so. You have to be. I think you are the

:27:51. > :27:56.same. She knows, don't mess with Aliona. I did some exercise before

:27:56. > :28:00.because Cara told me last year it was physically demanding, so a lot

:28:00. > :28:04.of swimming and running made me prepared for it because it's

:28:04. > :28:10.physically very demanding. Is it getting any easier? No, it's

:28:10. > :28:15.getting harder, honestly. Every week, I want him to get better

:28:15. > :28:19.which means I'm giving him more and more technical things to do. I'm

:28:19. > :28:25.making it harder for him. Technically. That's why it will

:28:25. > :28:28.never get easier. I came in on Monday like yeah, do the jive yeah

:28:28. > :28:31.what's up. Then you have to get into it. Five minutes in, I was

:28:31. > :28:35.like, this is impossible. How are you going to close the gap with

:28:35. > :28:39.Jason, he's been top every week, can you nudge him off the top?

:28:39. > :28:45.Donovan, he's good isn't it? He is. I'm having lots of fun, trying my

:28:45. > :28:49.hardest every day, trying to focus, stay positive and just do my best

:28:49. > :28:54.really. Do what I say. Do what she says. I'm questioning her for the

:28:54. > :28:59.first time today, never again! luck with it on Saturday. Harry and

:28:59. > :29:02.Aliona. So, earlier on, we set you our

:29:02. > :29:06.latest It Takes Two challenge to see if you could recognise which of

:29:06. > :29:16.our pros was dancing in disguise. Do you think you know who it was?

:29:16. > :29:18.

:29:18. > :29:22.Time to reveal all. # Who let the dogs out?... #

:29:22. > :29:25.Aliona thought that was Vincent, yes, you are not her best friend

:29:25. > :29:30.any more. It was Flavia, of course, knocking spots off the competition.

:29:30. > :29:35.Thank you to all my guests today, back live tomorrow at 6.30 with
