Episode 1 Tumble

I do want to win. I'm more nervous than for a world title fight. Me in

a leotard, that's ridiculous. My back feels like it's going to It

will snap. Be tough. But I'm so excited. Gymnastics is hard, crazy

hard. Dignity is much overrated. There are no solutions against pain.

That's a serious stretch, man. There is such a huge mountain to climb. O

h! Why am I doing this? I think we're going to win. Wow! Expect

pain, injuries, fear. If their hands aren't bleeding, they haven't

trained hard enough. This is gymnastics like you've never seen

before. I've got to do this in front of the nation!

Please bell come our Tumble -- welcome our Tumble professionals.

Your host, Alex Jones! It's Saturday night, expect fireworks, this is

Tumble. Good evening. Welcome to Tumble, the

brand new show that will you have right on the edge of your sofa and

who knows, maybe even cart wheeling off it. Now tonight, ten daring

celebrities will perform dazzling gymnastics and circus-inspired

routines live to you, the nation. So please welcome, with their

professional partners, our bold, beautiful and brave celebrities.

East Ender and West End star, John Partridge with Kat Would. Loose

Women's Andrea MacLean with Alex Atley. H from Steps with Holly

Johnstone. Girls Aloud's Sarah Harding with Leon Fagbemi. Wolfblood

actor Bobby Lockwood with Kristin Allen. Shugababe Amelle Berrabah

with Doug Fordyce. Actor and Blue Peter's Peter Duncan with Kate

McWilliam. TOWIE star Lucy Mecklenburgh with Billy George.

Actress and Dynasty icon Emma Samms with Ivan Pastore. And four-time

world champion super-middleweight boxer Carl Froch with Sita Bhuller.

Aren't they a fit looking lot? Now, for the last eight weeks, they've

been training with their own elite gymnastic coaches, who are all

sitting over there, evening coaches! There they are. I tell you what,

they have had a tough job. Some of the celebrities hadn't even done a

forward roll before this. But, this isn't gymnastics as we know it. We

are adding a whole lot of showbiz magic. Tonight, we'll see

performances that take place on the floor, and the aerial hoop and

someone will be facing this. That vault looks terrifying. But nobody

said this would be easy. And each week, our celebrities will find

themselves under the glare of four judges with very serious

credentials. My name is Nadia Comaneci. I competed in two Olympic

Games. I won a total of nine medals, five of them gold. In 1976 in

Montreal I was the first female that scored a perfect ten in Olympic

history. COMMENTATOR: That's perfection. I'm

Louis Smith, a British Olympian and a bad aon the Pommel Horse. Winning

a medal at London 2012 was the most emotional time of my life. It was a

magical year. It sounds cheesy, but it really was. I'm Sebastien Stella,

a special I choreographer and circus performer. I've worked with Cher,

Pink, etc, etc. I've been developing all different techniques from flying

to flipping to jumping. I'm Craig Heap. In 1998 I made history by

captaining England in their first ever Commonwealth Games Gold Medal

and four years later in Manchester, I did it again. To be the only

person to represent Great Britain in gymnastics at the 2000 Olympics is

probably the most special thing in my life. I'm totally committed and

dedicated, that's what the celebrities will have to do. If they

don't, they've had it. Every performance from the celebrity

is going to be expected to be extraordinary. They face

embarrassment, injury, humiliation and they've got to wear lycra! I

don't think they understand how hard it's going to be. I've got sweaty

palms thinking about it and I'm just judging. I'm looking forward to

giving a perfect ten to somebody. Our head judge, Olympic legend,

Nadia Comaneci. APPLAUSE

Commonwealth Games multimedallist, gymnast, Craig Heap.

APPLAUSE Circus and aerial performer and

choreographer to the stars, Sebastien Stella.

APPLAUSE And our very own Olympic and

Commonwealth hero, Louis Smith. MBE. APPLAUSE

The Tumble judges everybody! APPLAUSE

I've got goose bumps. It's so exciting. Let's get this show on the

road then. Believe me when I say nobody wanted to be the first to

perform tonight, but somebody had to. And she's a girl band member

with high hopes for the high hoops. I'm Amelle Berrabah best known for

being in the Sugababes. Being in a girl band, most people's perception

is that it's easy, you get your hair and make up done, but you have to

really work hard. That's what I want to do with this competition. Any

minute now I'm going to meet my partner. I'm really excited. I'm

Doug. I became acrobatic world champion, not once but twice. Nice

to meet you. I've met my professional partner and I have a

coach called Dave as well, who is amazing. Pleasure to meet you. I'm

so excited. Off we go. Gymnastics is definitely really hard. Everything

in your body is saying, "No, don't do it. She's a perfectist. And she

keeps on going until she completes that skill. I've been given aerial

for my first routine. I'm a little bit nervous. Big day. Yeah. First

time on the hoop. It's gymnastics and dance in the air. The hoop is

always moving which makes it difficult and dangerous. That's a

serious stretch, man. In terms of the pain threshold, the pain is as

good as it gets. You have to grit your teeth, literally, and work

through it. I'm just going to take the pain. We have them on separate

hoops and then to make it harder, they're on the same hoop and they

have to mirror each other. There's not a lot of space on the hoop for

two people. It took getting used to. Sorry, the wrong leg. I'm in a funny

position. When you're on the hoop together, you're totally reliant on

each other to do the move safely. I have a tear in my right hand. You

take the pain or you fall. My hands are torn up at the moment.

I'm going to block out everything around me and literally cling on for

dear life. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Huge pressure, being first up, but you'd never know it. What a

consummate performance from Amelle. She has the audience right with her.

Fabulous stuff. Splits Ghazal with great range and control. Look at the

confident smile. And the inverted stag, well, so impressive. This

really is a good performance, a great opener. Waist balance,

beautiful form, stylish and confident performance. Well done!

What a great start to Tumble, honestly, thank you both. The

audience loved it. CHEERING

So good. How was it for you? Really good. I'm really happy that we got

everything on point. Really enjoyed it, to be honest. Thank you so much.

Really enjoyed it. It all came together. We'll say a quick hell

throw Mitch Fenner in the commentary box. Hello there! Hi everybody!

APPLAUSE And a big hello to the judges,

settling in. You look very comfortable. Seb, you've worked a

lot on the aerial hoop, what were the main things you were looking for

in that performance? Well, we have a saying in circus is you have to be

the boss of the hoop, because it's a very dangerous apparatus. I didn't

see the hoop swing. I saw you in perfect control. I

see the hoop swing. I saw you in perfect control. saw perfect

transition. perfect control. saw perfect

Everything was into place. It was great entertainment. Bravo. By the

way, congratulations on the Commonwealth Games as well. Thank

you very much. Thank you. I would like to start off by saying well

done for being the first person up on this brand new show, Tumble.

That's brave in is of. Definitely. I like the fact that you're working

hard and you have the blisters to prove it. That's a very important

part. It showed tonight. It was very clean. It was finished. I love the

drop to the bottom bar. I think it was a great performance, well done.

Nadia? Gymnastics is hard. The key ingredients you have. You have great

technique and beautiful line and speed and timing. That is important.

Great job. Very good. Mr Craig Heap. I remember as a kid when the first

time I got a washing machine, because I'm from up north. Where is

this going? I remember sitting on the floor watching it going round,

being amazed by the machine. That reminded me of that performance. I

was mesmerised by what you did. I could have watched it for hours.

Well done. I think that is good. Happy with that? Very happy. Thank

you very much. Amelle and Doug. Craig went back to his childhood,

said great technique. Louis likes the blisters. And David the coach

looks very happy. Each judge will score the performances out of ten.

With a total of 40 points available. In Tumble they can give half a point

too. So judges let's hear the scores o's for the first performance.

Seven. That is 24 out of 40 for Amelle and

Doug. Craig? We are going to fall out. If you're into social media,

the details are up here now. You can find out what Amelle and the others

really think of the judges' comments and see other exclusives that will

keep you going from week-to-week. We have been up in the air. So now for

our first performance on the floor. This man is a legend of children's

television. But his Blue Peter badge won't help him now.

The man on the street said to me, Peter, Duncan, I know you, Blue

Peter man. That is great. I love that. I love that positive thing

that Blue Peter spread across our culture. I think the older you get

the more physical you should get. That is always my secret weapon. You

start humble and frail and when they think you're way ahead, suddenly

you're ahead. How will they catch up with this ancient God of a man who

is 60 years old? I'm Kate and I'm an acrobat. I recognised him from Blue

Peter. That is fantastic. The fact he has been comfortable to jump on a

trampoline is brilliant. I'm looking forward to start. You have a team

helping you develop your skills. I have a coach called Andy. I started

gymnast from age seven. We have the choreographer. Don't do that. You're

not eating an hamburger. I'm going to go for her. OK. My first

performance will be an acrobatic floor routine. He has got a

difficult lift called Front Ane kl that -- front angel that turns into

the pigeon. There could be a serious injury. The most dangerous routine

is the pitch into the somersault. The most important thing is the

relationship I have with Kate. Mainly trust. Most gymnasts build it

up over years. We are talking about weeks. If he was to drop me. It

would be game over. If I mess it up, she lands on her head. I have got to

get it right. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Well this man

has tried everything from wrestling to high wire walking and he was

worried about dropping his partner. No need, Peter. Fron angel into

pigeon, no problem. Look at that strength. Look at that poise and

look at the rack ra si of this. O' e-- accuracy of this. Hugely

confident, totally reliable and look at this - he is enjoying it! He has

got someone balancing on his head and he's loving it. Brilliant. Did

you just see that? This man is like Popeye, you're incredible. I love it

when it's live. You were amazing. Louis, you spoke about the

difficultness of that pigeon lift. How difficult is that? That is very

difficult. Any parent know what is it is like to throw their kid around

when they're two or three, but to do wit a full grown woman is hard. That

pigeon lift if you get a gap and they start falling, it is all over.

But he is so strong and went from lift to lift and didn't seem to

struggle. The gymnastic side wasn't as good. But the lift made up for

that. We thought it was excellent. Nadia? I consider myself a person in

shape. But after seeing this, I think I need to go work out a little

more! You worked with a lot of confidence on the floofr and if you

had -- floor and you had done, you did five tricks hard. You would have

done two, I would be happy. I was amazed. Congratulations. Very good

comments there. Craig, a lot of the audience were watching like this.

What did you make of it? Well, I was so impressed with that back pitch

somersault. It is impressive and coaches find it difficult over years

to be able to spot gymnasts like that. So that was awesome to see.

Peter, I have not said this to a bloke before, I think I love you,

man! Seb? Well strength, focus, balance, I think you understand a

lot about floor acrobatics. It is amazing. I can't wait to see what

you're going to do in the air. We are all very excited. An amazing

performance. Peter and Kate everyone. Surely worth a Blue Peter

badge to add to his collection. Louis said this is not easy. Craig

has fallen in love and Seb is just impressed all the way through. He

has the lot, he said. So judges, let's hear your scores, starting

with Seb. 23.5 out of 40. Do you know, we seem

to know another Craig similar to this one. He said he loved me. Now

then, Andy, you are Peter's coach and you said in the difficult it was

as a coach to get the celebrities up to a certain standard in eight

weeks. Can you put that into words for describe how it has been for

you? These guys have worked hard and what normally takes months and

years, they have done in eight weeks. That is amazing. The show is

amazing and I'm proud to be part of it. Brilliant. Well done. I am going

to nip in here. David, you're Amelle's coach. We saw her on the

hoop. How hard is it to do all these disciplines with a celebrity in such

a short space of time? Normally they stick to one discipline and they

have to do all the disciplines in eight weeks. So they're doing a

fantastic job. Amelle, you have been injured. We have seen your abes,

they look brilliant. How intense has it been as celebrities? It is really

intense and it is a shock to the system for all of us. It has been

the most enjoyable experience. I'm so proud of myself and of everyone.

I didn't think I would be able to do half the things. I'm blessed to have

Doug and Dave and I want to carry on with Tumble. It is such an amazing

thing to watch you all. Now, you will know our next celebrity as a

loose woom. But hanging from a -- loose woman, but hanging from a hoop

she will be more of a hold on tight girl. I'm Andrea McLean and I'm a

loose woman. Bhi main goal is to do a rolly Poley. If I can do that I

will be really pleased. I'm Alex, I'm a world champion. Do you have

any worries? Just don't spin me. The last time I tried spinning, it was

horrendous. I did three spins and felt sick for about four hours.

Today is my first day of aerial training. I'm nervous. Oh, my

goodness. I'm not great with spinning. I'm just going to have to

butch up. She must be careful, the hoop, once it starts spinning, it

has a mind of its own. If I can't get my head around the shin spinning

problem I may not be able to tackle the hoops. I feel like I'm going to

be sick. It is horrible. It is not like I can ignore it. It becomes so

all consuming, I don't know what to do. I will try anything. I have got

sickness bands and tablets. Everything. I'm never going to like

the spinning thing. But I am taking every potion known to man to help me

get through this. Live performance, there is two ways it could go. I'm

very ill and become a YouTube sensation. Or it could go well. I

know which one I prefer. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE No sign of spin phobia there. She has left

roly-polies far behind. That was such a confident performance.

Forward circle through the hoop. Lovely toe point and look at that

smile, no problem there. Forward Arabesque. Loving every moment and

the one-arm fish hang, well, what a performance. Well done!

We saw you have struggled with this motion sickness, but you did it?

Yeah! I did wonder whether I should bring a bucket. But you're fine. At

the moment. I did have a moment. Nadia, you first. The quality of a

champion is to not give up when it is hard. You're a champion. I like

that you attempted the routine and the skills were clean, there was not

very difficult, but I know you can do much more. So good job. Craig?

Andrea, saucy, Sasse, house wife. Gymnastics is about pushing yourself

and feeling the fear every week. I guess like Nadia says, we want you

to believe in yourself more. I want to see more. And I'm sure you can do

just a little bit more next week. But well done. What about you, Seb?

Well, one of my aboutings was the spinning hook and for 24 hours we

had to spin. My friend at the time was a bucket. That is what happened.

Just the fact that you went through that and built a routine to perform,

I admire you. You did very good. And Louis. I loved it. You smiled

throughout even you probably wanted to vomit is great. But no, it was

good. Like they said, I would like to see yourself push yourself in

training and step it up. But I thought you did a great job. So are

you going to push yourself for next week? Yes. I thought this was hard.

The floor routine is more difficult, because I keep banging into him. But

I can't wait. I'm so excited that I did it. We can't wait to see what

else you have up your sleeves. Andrea and Alex everyone. From wash

day blues to bliss. Thumbs up from everyone. They're loving it.

Let's hear your scores then. Six. Five. 5. 5. 4. 5. So, a total of 21

out of 40 for Andrea and Alex. OK then, Mitch, let's look at how

the score board stands: It's early doors yet. You have to

remember, there's still a long way to go. Oh, yes there is. Thanks

Mitch. Our judges aren't just here to offer words of wisdom. Later, two

of them will be stripped to their gym gear, One Showing us exactly how

the vault is done, and the other will be, well, showing off. I'm

joking a, very special performance coming up later from one of these.

Now, there are plenty more famous faces panicking back stage,

including world boxing champ, Carl Froch, Girls Aloud's Sarah Harding

and TOWIE's Lucy Mecklenburgh. Learning all these new skills, it

has been the hardest thing I've ever done. I hope it pays This is off.

Going to be physically, mentally demanding. I would like to prove to

myself that I can do this The hoop is a ring, but it's no boxing ring.

Yeah, plenty still to come. Our next celebrity has come a long way in

training already. In fact, you could say he's made some great steps.

My name is Ian Watkins and everybody will know me from Steps. I've been

called H since I was nine years old. It stood for hyperactive. I've not

met my partner yet. So I think I'm going to play a little trick. Can

you see me? I'm Holly. I'm trained in circus arts. My special I is

aerial hoop and I've performed all over the world. It's H! Hi. Come and

give us a love. I've met Holly and if that wasn't amazing enough I have

a coach called Alex. H! We've met. It's time to start training. That's

it, good. My neck is killing me. H has been moaning, to be fair, he is

covered in bruises. I can't even believe you've set there already and

I can't do them. You just need to do them. We gave H a particularly hard

routine today with a lot of advanced gymnastic skills in it and we're

asking him to dance. But he was really negative about it. I'm just

knackered. I'm frustrated with H because he's good. You have an

amazing team here, but you need to shut up. I'm going to stop

complaining. I'm going to ignore the pain and plough through it.

That felt better. . I'm writing down key points. He's totally changed his

attitude. I worked so hard. I just hope that it's going to be enough.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Well, well, well. The audience will

be queueing up to buy aburg frer that store. Fast food with a

difference from flipping burgers to flipping backwards. And just look at

this. Consummate just like a gymnast. We've tried those any

gymnast worth his salt has suffered learning. This I remember it well!

And the needle splits on shoulders, beautifully supported. Well done,

young man. You did it! And you did it

brilliantly, both of you. I want to do it again! You will, next week.

Oh, OK. You know, what I thought that was great. Let's go to the

judges. Craig, what due make of it? Well now you're cooking, yeah? I was

feeling like I'm going to get on the chair and start jumping up and down

with excitement. That's what it's all about. There was so much fun in

there. But looking at the gymnastics, technically it's very

good. And the straddle jump at the start, straightening your legs,

pointing your toes, you have got the landings. One thing I cannot forgive

is anybody who puts their hands down to get up in a forward roll - twice.

But apart from that, you smashed it. I knew it. Very good. Sebastien? I

think you have to realise you set the bar right here. Because now you

just show all of the UK and everyone else what a number should look like

in that show. Thank you. This is huge. But that means also that

you're going to have to do better than that for the future. It's a big

challenge, but amazing, amazing. You'll do it. We will. For me, that

is Tumble. That is what this show is about, H. That was unbelievable.

What I like that round-off tuck back, it was a great technique. Your

head was in, you reached up, you spotted when you went off.

Technically brilliant. There was really nice gymnastics in there as

well. Unblfable, well done. -- unbelievable, well done. They like

it. I will take my burger with cheese. I saw that hand over there,

fast, you put your hand because you didn't trust yourself. You do a

great job. The cart wheel over the top, every gymnastics move is right

how it is in the book. Good job. Brilliant. You've worked very hard.

You should be proud of yourself. Holly and H everyone!

APPLAUSE Louis said it, that is what this

show is all about, great gymnastics, who could ask for anything more. And

their coach Alex is thrilled to bits for them. Very good. Let's hear your

scores then. 26 out of 40. How can it be? Craig?

Loads to improve on. 26. 5 by the way, I got excited there. It was a

low score from you. Any way, who's next? Well, he's an actor and star

of CBBC's Wolfblood and he couldn't wait to sink his teeth into Tumble.

I'm Bobby Lockwood. I'm an actor. You might know me from Wolfblood,

where I play Rhydian Are you Morrison. Asking me out on a date?

Yeah. I'm hoping my partner will be someone that I can get on with. We

are spending a lot of time together and we will have to get quite...

Close. I'm Kristin. I'm a world champion acrobat. I've come from

across the pond. My pro-partner and myself have just arrived for our

first session. I'm excited. Bobby and Kristin get on well together.

They're a great working team. I just can't tell you how happy I am that I

have Bobby as a partner. I don't think he realises how talented he

is. We get on great. She's awesome. I do genuinely feel that we're in it

together. They're such an adorable couple. They're technically amazing

on the hoop. Now we need to work on the performance. Because we've given

them such a romantic routine, we need to see that romance and

chemistry. Moving together as one, touching their faces, lots of eye

contact. Where are you looking? I'm looking at you. You have to act

being in love. I don't think the chemistry is a problem though. We've

been working really hard on those romantic moments trying to make the

routine special. Where you put your hand. Where you tilt your chin,

using your eyes, all those things make the love come across. #234 I

love performing with Kristin. She's great. Lovely sharing a hoop with

her. Give her a kiss.

Well, not a dry eye in the house. Romance is in the air.

Full of emotion. Full of control. Look at this. The upside down eagle,

you'd think he was born to it. Fantastic. And a double fish. We

call it a double fish hang and they does it so well. -- he does it so

well. Now then, look at this - will they? Won't they? We will have to

wait and see. Ah, that was stunningly beautiful,

guys. Really well done. Everybody in here has been, oh, they loved it.

Seb, did you feel the love? I did feel the love. They remind me, my

wife and I were performing around the world, this is a very

professional act that you just performed, you guys. Because when

you're able to not remember the technique and just enjoy the moment,

that's a real number. That's very entertaining. It's great, wow. So

good. I had to swallow a lump in my throat. A softie after all. It was

amazing. It really was. I've only ever felt gooey a few times in my

life, one was after my routine at the Olympic Games. And another time

here. It was beautiful. Well done. That's major. So good. And Nadia?

When I was competing, I used to have a balance beam in my house and I

used to go from the living room to the kitchen on the balance beam

because I realised you have to practice, practice, practice and

you've done that. But I think that you can do much more than you showed

tonight. So, I like it. Craig, tell us that it melted your

little heart? No, it was really nice. It was. If we get rid of all

that lovy-Dovey stuff and get down... No I want to get back to the

acrobatic skills around the hoop and things like that. I must agree with

Nadia, it was beautiful but I'd like a bit more. I think you're a lot

better than what you think you are. I don't want people to think oh,

he's mean, giving low scores. It took Nadia a long, long time before

she scored a perfect ten. And the same for me, when I was in the gym

competing. So, you guys have got six weeks. My mum give me a ten. Be

generous this time. It was lovely. It was good though, guys. Well done.

You should be proud of yourselves. Kristin and bobby everyone!

APPLAUSE He has a heart of stone. The romantic story unfold and most

of the judges felt the love. This should be interesting. Let's hear

your scores. 26 out of 40. A great score for

Bobby and Kristin. Now, none of our celebrities will leave, the scores

will carry over. So at the half way point. Let's have another look at

the score board. We have been treated to some great moments. Not

to mention a bufding romance. At the moment it is H and Holly in front.

-- budding romance. It is heating up and there is still five performances

to come. Oh, it is quite close. I know you're thrilled with your score

and your performance. I came to your training session and saw first hand

how hard it is. Give us an idea of how it has been. I can't tell you.

It has been like boot camp, we have had tear, blood, sweat. And ready

for the hoop? Not yet. But it is next week and we will have more

blisters and tears. Please don't try this at home. Even if you have an

aerial hoop in your lounge. It is very dangerous. Somebody who knows

how dangerous is this lovely man, Mr Motivator everybody! Just tell us

what happened to you. Actually it is a competition, they wanted me out of

the way. No, I was doing a vault and I missed my step and landed badly.

But the thing is it was a disappointment. I was more

disappointed for my wonderful partner Kerry and Alberta who worked

so hard with me. But there are lessons to be learned. It is tough.

But you're on the mend. Yes and the thing is right, what I have to do is

applaud every one of the guys. They say it is only in the dictionary

where success comes before work. And they must continue. We wish you a

speedy recovery. Thank you Mr Motivator. Now, if you told me that

one of the most immaculate stars of Towie would be down the gym sweating

it out without her make up, I would have said no chance. Well guess,

what it's happened. I'm Lucy Mecklenburgh and I'm known

for starring in The Only Way Is Essex. I'm not the mug. I'm hoping

my partner is tall, dark and handsome with lots of muscles. Oh,

my God! Hello. That was unreal. That was so good. I'm glad you liked it.

I'm Lucy. I'm Billy. I'm the UK's leading wheel artist. We are going

to win, yeah?? I love my partner, he is so supportive and he has been

encouraging me the whole day. We are having a great time together. She is

wicked. It is rally wicked. It is great they get on. That chemistry is

vital. But they're easily distracted. Where have the gymnasts

gone? They are testing me. They wanted to put war paint on. Right.

Taking selfies. They want to do well. Sometimes they don't

demonstrate the behaviour that goes with that motivation. I had to have

a chat with them. When we are in the middle of something, what we need to

do is foe xus. I'm glad Kate has put her foot down. We are definitely

work a lot harder than we did. They have an amazing lift called the

helicopter. It has the wow factor. When it goes right! Learning these

new skills has been the hardest thing I have done and I hope it pace

off. -- Pays off. Can you feel the sun on your face?

We certainly can. But watch out for sun burn. Beach time frolics, I bet

you felt like joining in. Look at the confidence here. From the baby

balance, we saw a back angel walk out with such aplomb. And just look

at the risk here. This is a helicopter and she does it so

bravely. Great stuff. And a supported front somersault, which

she made look her very own. Well done Lucy, it looks pretty

impressive. You did the helicopter lift! I can see your face thinking,

here we go. You did it. Louis? I thought it was good. I could tell

you were nervous, the first lift you didn't quite hit it and you started

to settle into it. You were doing it well. Very impressed with the front

somersault. But the gymnastics was a bit basic. But having come from a

none gymnastics background you did well. Nadia, we have mentioned the

helicopter lift. This is a hard move isn't it? Yes, that is a difficult

lift and I'm happy that you did it successfully. But you have to do it

higher to be more impressive. I liked that you went for a difficult

gymnastic skill. I appreciated you did a cartwheel over the head. Which

is important in gymnastics to be able to do more, you have to work on

your strength and flexibility. Craig? I guess I have got to agree

with Louis, it is obvious you're not from a gymnastic background, so fair

play. Sometimes in the performances it is not about the performance, but

what memories, it strikes in a person. That reminded me of as a

kid, my parents took know Blackpool and I tried to impress the girls. It

didn't work for me, but it worked for you guys. I did like the

performance. Just need a bit more. But well done. Quickly, Seb. I can

see your a graceful performer. You have that summer way to go around

the stage and you understand the performance. Now, I join my partners

here, you need to work your tricks, your gymnastics. I want to see that

front somersault, I want to see you doing by yourself. Because you can

do it. If you have to push the machine you have to work harder and

challenge yourself. Anything you can do, go for it. As Craig said, we

have to remember you're all new to gymnastics and you did it with a

smile on wrour face. I -- on your face. Billy and Lucy. Craig lost

himself down memory lane. Seb thought it was so natural. So some

mixed comments. Let's see the scores.

20 out of 40. Well our next celebrity is a pop princess who used

to something kind of ooh, but what about something kind of ouch? I'm

Sarah Harding, I'm better known as the crazy one in Girls Aloud. I

think this will be hisically and mentally demanding, but I would like

to prove can I do this. -- physically. I'm Leon. Leon and I

have arrived. They look high up than they are. I was like, how am I going

to get up. Part of reason I wanted to do this, is I missed performing.

This is another element and it is a scary element. Get me out of it

quick. I think she could do well. If she is can be a bit more confident.

She's quite hard on herself. And doesn't think she can do stuff and

actually she can. I haven't got strength. Yeah, it is terrifying. In

a band, you have four other girls to push you on. I need to be strong in

myself. But what can you do? I quit. I'm done. She has to realise she is

not on her own. She has me as a coach. Don't stress yourself. She

has Leon as a partner. We are in it together. We are here to help her.

Now, what I do I do? She will have to hang from my neck. That is all

about team work and trust. I'm petrified, but not only do I want to

it for myself, I want to do it for my team.

Wow Sarah's focus on teamwork has paid off. She is adding gymnastic

skill to that. Look at the grace and elegance and shape in this Mermaid.

She is in control. The ankle hang, you would never believe she was

upside down a and four metres off the ground. And a double stag hang

from Leon's neck. A great finish. You look ecstatic. Are you? I'm just

glad it's over. I was spinning for so long, before it starts, I know

why you need that bucket! It was very good. So Nadia? At the start, I

thought you struggled. I am not sure if you're not ready. Then you

started to show the difficult skills, which was great. I don't

think you connected them so well. I like a flawless connection between

one skill to the other one. But you can do better. OK mixed. Craig?

You're not going to like this, but I have to disagree with you on that. I

really loved that. It was action packed and great choreography and

chemistry. When you got off at the end, there was a peopling -- beaming

smile. I would like to see that during the routine, not like, this

is killing me. So smile more. But well done.

That cross-ankle hang is difficult, it's scary, it hurts. You went for

it and I think it's the reflection of your hard work and talent. It's

great. I have to agree with all my judges,

there were parts where it was Januaryingly in the transitions. But

it's -- jangly in the transitions. But it's like television and the

transitions were a bit, oh, what am I doing. When you settled in, it was

fantastic. Action packed. Well done. For your first go, brilliant effort.

Leon and Sarah everybody! Craig was brave enough to argue with Nadia,

brave man. Louis and Seb thought it was difficult. The thought it was

impressive. Not all the judges always agree. Natalya looks thrilled

as well. Your scores: OK, so total of 25 out of 40 for

Sarah and Leon. A good score. I think they'll be pleased with that.

So, a bit of Hollywood glamour now. An actress whose soap story lines

included a long triangle and alien abduction. Never a cart wheel on the

telly, mind. I'm Emma Samms and probably people

will know me from Dynasty. Obviously, it was massively

successful. I joined it when it was at its height. I'm representing

women of a certain age. I'm 53, soon to be 546789 I'm not ashamed of

that. In fact, I'm telling people it regularly, so they'll give me a

break! I'm Ivan, I'm a medal-winning GB gymnast. Ivan is great. My coach

Phil is lovely. The start point Emma comes from is zero position, she has

no gymnastics training at all. The whole thing is pretty scary. That's

it, feel. It We're having trouble with standing on the shoulders

because it's dangerous. It is dangerous. If I were in a film, a

stunt person would do that. That's all I need to say. It's really high!

I know. I think they need to push her a bit more. We take that fear

away from her and she will go on to much better and more complicated

things. No, don't, don't. I think we need a little gnatter because I want

to push it to another level and up the antea bit. It depends what the

ante amounts to. I'm open to let's move it on a notch, absolutely. I

think she's now starting to see that she's capable of more than she

thought she would be. It's asking a lot to learn an entirely new

discipline in such a short time. You deserve a pat on your back. I'm

delighted we've improved as much as we have. If we keep improving at

that rate, then maybe, we're not going to make complete fools of

ourselves on live television. Tea break.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Well those stunt -- no stunt double

needed there. The audience was with you all the way. Great stuff. And

what an entrance. Even the coat was falling with style. Look at that,

standing on shoulders and then she comes into the blue bird lift and a

supported walkover, this from someone who hasn't done gymnastics.

Back angel Spiral, wrapped it up nicely indeed. I think that was the

best time I've seen you done that, out of all the rehearsals.

Brilliant. Are you happy with it? Yes. Yes. He's very good, isn't he?

He's very strong. You're very good as well. Craig, what did you make

TV? I think -- Make of it? I think you're great. We can't forget it

wasn't very acrobatic. It was dramatic, glamorous, beautiful, just

like you. Well done.

Seb? You're a very classy, beautiful performer and that was really high.

It required a lot of control and balance and it's something new. So

you got everything to do even better, trust yourself. Work harder.

You're going to get amazing tricks. I thought you did a great job. I

think what you did perform it was performed with class and elegance.

You showed great control in the hand stand, one arm, especially when it

starts burning in your shoulders, that's a hard skill. Challenge

yourself in the gym. I think you can do a lot more. Trust Ivan, trust

your coach and come back and knock us away. Joo-Ho if you would have

taken the coat off and go out of the arena, it would have been happy. I

love that you finish everything to the end and you point is better than

mine. Great job. Wow! That's saying something. The

one thing we all want to know, do you get to keep the coat? Yes, I am

hoping. If I say yes, they have to, right? Exact ly. Go back to coach

Phil, Ivan and Emma! Glitz, glamour and ball theic elegance. The judges

thought it was classy and Craig similar pressed with Emma.

She's bounding back across the floor, obviously thrilled with that.

Your scores then: So, it's 21 40. Now, don't know much about boxing,

but I know that it doesn't really involve and elegant fingers,

especially when dangle with an aerial hoop.

I'm Carl Froch, aka the cobra. I'm the WBA and IBF super-middleweight

champion of the world. I've just recently defended those two world

titles successfully at Wembley Stadium, which is the biggest fight

to happen in British boxing history. It was very satisfying. Gymnastics

is something I've always wanted to do. I've just come off the back of a

massive fight and now what I'd usually do is sit house putting

weight on and getting stiff. It's nice to get physically into

something else. I'm Sita and I'm a professional acrobat. Sita, my

coach, Rob, and myself are off to our first training session. I know

the aerial hoop is a ring. But it's no boxing ring. I've got a lot of

restricted movement from being a boxer. I'm stiff in areas. My arms

aren't very good at straightening. There's certain things I can't do.

As flexibility is such a problem for Carl we have given him strength

based moves, the biggest is the back lunge.

Carl has to engage muscles he's never engaged before to do it. If he

pull it's off, it will look amazing. I was worried about Carl when we

first started. Credit to him, he's worked really hard and shown amazing

progress. This has been really physical for me. My body is now

conditioned perform these moves to the best of my ability. So I'm

confident on fight night I will do the business.

Well, it's fight night for Carl and he's left the audience totally

floored. What a performance. Some window cleaner he turned out to be.

There are no gymnastics words to describe this. And look at the

strength in the back planche. Any gymnast would be proud of it. What a

finish. Not for the faint hearted. The leg to leg catch, terrific

stuff. It seems to have got very hot in here, all of a sudden. Anybody

else feeling it? Boiling! Craig, there's... Carl I don't even know

your name any more. There's a towel there for you. Any way, very

impressive. Very good. Seb, now, the back planche, was executed well?

Yeah, come on he opens the routine with that, which is a horizontal

position, arms attached to the hoop and finish with a leg catch. That

tells you the level of the act is just brilliant. Good comments. I

thought it was a little bit rugged, which suited the kind of theme. I

thought that was greet, very lucky there. The back planche was great.

The stiffness in your shoulders helped. To do that in eight weeks is

great. Craig trained all his life and he still can't do it. We won't

have that It's true though. I'm not lying. Work on that flexibility.

Especially if you get to P bars later in the series. Good job.

Nadia? I wanted to do one of those myself. I like that you packed

everything with difficulties. Everything was skill well executed.

If there's something that I would like you to work on it, it's your

legs. If they're bent, you're bent. If they're straight, they're

straight. And Craig, this is your right to reply, can you or not do a

back planche? At least I did six pieces of apparatus Lewis, not just

one. I had better be careful what I say,

otherwise you will knock me out. If you don't go back to boxing, you can

get a job window cleaning for ladies, because that was pretty

impressive. One technical thing, if you learn to point your toes, then

that will be another level. But that was awesome. A great performance,

well done, Carl and Sita. Fascinating blend of macho and

elegance, that is the verdict and Craig and Louis need to sort out

their differences. Nadia, she was impressed. So let's hear your scores

then. Seb. A very good score. 26 out of 40. And

they look thrilled over there. So our final celebrity has done a fair

bit of tumbling in his time. But usually out of the Queen Vic on a

Friday night. I'm John Partridge and people know

me for playing Christian Clarke in Eastenders. I went to the Royal

Ballet School when I was ten. You weren't allowed to do gymnastics,

because we didn't want to hurt yourself. But now I thought, why

don't I hurt myself now? I'm here to meet my pro partner. I hope she gets

to love me! I'm Kat, I'm an elite gymnast and performer. Are you ready

to win? I don't know about that. Very happy with who I have got. I

think he will be the winner. What is next. I don't want to tomorrow, I

want to do everything today. He is a bit too tough on himself. He wants

to do things perfectly straightaway. I can't get it. As a young person, I

had a natural aptitude for dance. I'm clearly not a natural gymnast

and I'm starting to wonder if I ever will be. What worries me is maybe I

can't do it. It is just not clicking with me. It is not going in. It

takes 500 repetitions to learn a skill. I have done 500. We have done

nowhere near that. He must keep positive. I'm waiting for that

click. And I really hope it comes soon!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE It is not easy closing the show. But that was a

real show-stopping performance. John has driven himself so hard, but the

results are wort it. Look at this. He enjoyed it, look at the way he

stands shows it off. Brilliant. Supporting the Angel and sliding to

splits. At look at this counter balance. Fantastic. Everybody here

loved it. I don't know technically who was great, but your performance

was amazing. What did you make of it Louis? Mr Partridge, somersaults

tick, lifts tick, holds tick, flexibility tick. Unbelievable.

Thank you so much. Nadia. I'm often asked if I see any tall gymnasts, if

there are, I say yes, but they're not good. You proved me wrong! Good

job. Craig. OK, quick, I think you are probably the best performer of

the competition. I'm going to give you a tip. When you go into your

somersault, everybody does this massive jump into it. You don't need

to, little jump, react from the floor and you will nail it every

time. Great job. Thanks Craig. Seb? You said earlier you are waiting for

that click. You say yes, I will give you the click. Click. You have got

it. That is it. You click. You have worked very hard and it was worth

it. Kat and John everyone well done. Even Phil Mitchell would be pleased

with that. Louis thought it was unbelievable and Nadia loved to be

proved wrong. A tall man can do gymnastics. Come on let's hear your

scores. Really? But it is a great score of

27.5. Out of 40. So after all ten performances let's get final

confirmation of the judges' score board. Mitch. What a night we have

had. We have been cleaned window, hung out the washing, tossedburgers

and -- tossed burgers and been on holiday.

There is still next week to come. It is not over yet. Not by a long shot.

So that is what the judges made of tonight's performances. But later

you at home will get the chance to vote for you favourite couple and

crown the Tumble champion. So top of the leader board, John. I want to

thank my partner Kat and my coach Warren, because we are a team and I

couldn't do it without them. All the partners and the coaches have worked

hard, so a round of applause to you all. Over here, oh, Lucy, Emma,

Andrea, at the moment, you're down at the bottom. But things could

change. At the minute you're in danger of facing the vault. So next

week step it up. I think you did brilliantly. You did Emma. You're

right. Earlier I promise you'd that two of the judges would be putting

their money where their mouth is. Craig will be showing us how to

tackle the vault live. Louis, hot off the success of Commonwealth

Games has brought along some friends. So let's meet them.

Very nice. Yet another medal for Louis Smith. Oh, it is hard work

winning all those medals. But what do the boys get up to when the coach

isn't looking. You're about the find out. Please welcome Louis Smith and

his medal-winning friends. Great training guys. See you tomorrow.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Louis and the boys. It is no wonder they goat 18

Commonwealth Games medals between them. Now, next week, at this point

of the show, the two celebrities bottom of the score board will face

each other in the first competitive vault and it is not something

they're queueing up to do. The vault is about facing your fear and

overcoming it. The thing" s I will be looking for are the body

position. The height. And the landing. I want the celebrities to

be brave. I want them to be tough. And I want them to be confident. I

want them to impress me. And I want them to do the perfect vault. That

looks like it is going to hurt and painful. And it's head judge Nadia

who decides who stays, based on the the vault. You're currently bottom

of the leader board. It could change, but you may want to pay

close attention to what happens here now. For one night only, judge Craig

Heap has come out of retirement to show us how the vault is done. Now

he hasn't faced pressure like this since the 2000 Sydney Olympics. So

let's unleash the Heapster. It has been a while since he vaulted in

anger. Craig, please prepare to vault.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE A lot of determination in the run. A good

push in the hand string. -- hand spring. Clever stuff. But we it not

issed it. Look at this. There is the hand spring. It should finish here.

But Craig, being Craig, has to jam it up. Look at this! You didn't fool

us, Craig. Well, that looked pretty good to us. How was it for you? That

was terrible, but probably that is just dessert for giving such bad

scores tonight. Did you feel the nerves that our contestants would

have felt? Yes, it is so difficult. I felt I was stepping United -

stepping out for the Olympics. It is tough and I do love you guys. Nadia,

what did you make of his vault? For a minute, when you started, I

thought you were going to go to Rio in 2016. It was good, it was a good

push. Actually too much push that made you do that extra thing. I am

not sure what you call it. A Craig something. You put your hands down,

so you have to work more on that. Thank you. Well, that is what two of

your ten celebrities will face live next Saturday. And over the coming

eweeks they will be -- over the coming weeks they will be tackling a

lot more. We only have eight weeks to do this. It is mad. Me and the

trampoline are not friends. That is skilling -- that is killing me.

Rhythmic. The beam is so hard. In it to win it. I did it! So much more

still to come. That is it for tonight. A huge thank you to our

Tumble couples and their coaches. Thanks to our head judge Nadia and

her fellow judges and Mitch. Next week the Queen of British

gymnastics, Beth Tweddle will visit us. See you next Saturday at 6.30.

Good night. And it's about time

that I did something about that.
