00:00Alex Kingston and her partner, Johannes Radeveld.

00:07I thought I was prepared,

00:09but I realised that I am massively out of my comfort zone.

00:14Do you think I go to the village shop dressed like this?

00:17I don't think so.

00:22You are an actor as well as a dancer.

00:24Oi.

00:26What do you mean?

00:27I still have to remind myself of that now and then.

00:29You understand my soul.

00:32Alex Kingston.

00:33She's the person that we look up to for fabulosity.

00:36I love that word.

00:38Absolutely.

00:39We're going to use that word all the time now.

00:48Oh, hello.

00:51She brought a friend who's going to scrutinise our dancing.

00:54His name is Wolfie.

00:56He's come to see his mummy dance for the first time.

00:59We are doing a Viennese waltz.

01:02Oh my word.

01:04To Michael Bublé, Cry Me A River.

01:07Can we please just listen to the music once and just feel it?

01:12Cry me a river.

01:14I like dogs.

01:17But I do prefer cats.

01:19Don't tell Alex.

01:21Cross.

01:23Heel side.

01:24Alex has taken to training like duck to water.

01:28We've developed a language that we both understand.

01:31My jigsaw's sticking to you.

01:33Plane.

01:34Yeah.

01:35Going to a plane higher.

01:36Because you see your window sill is very high.

01:37Those images help me remember my positioning.

01:41That's right.

01:42Was I sitting on the loo?

01:43A couple of times.

01:44A couple of times.

01:45So I feel quite confident about the routine now.

01:49Just excited to get onto the dance floor and show it to everybody.

01:57Dancing the Viennese waltz.

01:59Alex Kingston and Johannes Radeville.

02:11And now you say blue

02:20For being so untrue

02:24Well, you can cry me a river

02:30Cry me a river

02:35I can cry a river

02:38Over you

02:40Over you

02:41Say you love me but you lie

02:56Oh, you say you love me

03:17Well, just to prove that you do

03:24Come on and cry me a river

03:27Come on and cry me a river

03:30Oh, cry me a river

03:35I cried a river

03:39Over you

03:43Over you

03:47Wow, that's just wonderful!

03:51The drama!

03:53I love the drama.

03:57And you could not wait to come out here and perform that.

04:01Yes, I was doing it.

04:03I love the drama.

04:05I love the drama.

04:07I love the drama.

04:09I love the drama.

04:11I love the drama.

04:13And you could not wait to come out here and perform that.

04:15Yes, I was desperate to share it with everybody.

04:19We enjoyed every moment.

04:21Shirley, I hope you did too.

04:23Well, I think that was off to a great start.

04:25I mean, we saw some beautiful movement across the floor.

04:28Could have flew flat a little bit more, but you know what?

04:30For the first dance, I was very, very happy with that.

04:33Your passion and your intensity, the actress in you,

04:37the movements, the direct focus, all that I loved.

04:40Now, you're going to get lots more ballroom dancers.

04:43So, this little left hand that you have on Johannes,

04:46I want it to look...

04:47Can you stand up, Shirley?

04:48Yes, I most certainly can.

04:49A little bit like a butterfly.

04:51Don't hang on his arm, OK?

04:53And underneath, people used to call these my bingo wings.

04:56Whatever, whatever, whatever.

04:58But you can hold your lovely arms up and hold them yourself

05:01without pressing down a little bit.

05:03But you are doing extremely well.

05:06We said that, didn't we?

05:07Yeah.

05:08Very good.

05:09Well, thank you.

05:10Our head judge is happy.

05:12Aren't you happy, Anna?

05:13I felt I needed to stand for that moment.

05:15I'm glad you did.

05:17I must stand.

05:18I'm going to give you this one for...

05:19I'm going to give you this one this week,

05:21because it was really good.

05:23And, Johannes, you're very, very clever.

05:26You're very clever.

05:28Handsome.

05:29Handsome, talented, but also clever.

05:31But for this week, you can have that one for free.

05:34There wasn't quite enough in hold.

05:37Now, we're going to do more ball and dances.

05:40We'd like a little bit longer in hold,

05:42because the hold was good.

05:44You came out of it too soon and stayed out of it.

05:46I'd like to have seen a bit more in hold.

05:48Because as Shirley said, there's a lot to like.

05:51I love the atmosphere you created.

05:53I love the drama that you created.

05:55You gave a new feel to an old-fashioned dance,

05:57and I really, really enjoyed it.

05:59So, all in all, it was a super-duper Viennese Wolfs.

06:02Well done.

06:05Super-duper comments so far.

06:07Craig, don't spoil it.

06:08The shoulders, unfortunately, were raised.

06:10It was very lumpy for my liking.

06:13There was way too much rise and fall.

06:16It should be very limited,

06:18and you should try and dance this dance flat.

06:21But you know what I did love?

06:22The drama in it, because it was full of intent.

06:26Yes, we love drama.

06:28We love drama.

06:30Marty.

06:31You know, Alex, I love this combination.

06:34I love the both of you.

06:35You guys created something so special within a short space of time.

06:39So I'm really looking forward to see where this journey is going to.

06:43I think you moved like a slick fox.

06:47You came down those stairs.

06:49You were walking like there's nothing there.

06:51Yeah.

06:52You're like, oh, Johannes.

06:54And then you got together.

06:55It was smooth.

06:56You were so into it emotionally.

06:59You gave us a performance.

07:01Technique, technique, yes.

07:03But do not forget to dance like that every single time.

07:06Congrats.

07:07Congrats.

07:08Congrats.

07:09Congrats.

07:10Congrats.

07:11Week one, you've got to be very pleased with that.

07:13So well done.

07:14Thank you, Alex and Jojo.

07:16You've got to be happy with those comments.

07:32Yes, I am.

07:33I am.

07:34And they're constructive.

07:35Yes.

07:36So we've got something to work on.

07:37You are such a pair having the greatest time in training.

07:42You're using different phrases, aren't you?

07:44Tell me some of the phrases.

07:45Yes.

07:46Don't sit on the loo.

07:47Right.

07:48Is one of them in ballroom.

07:49Ever?

07:50Well, I mean, hopefully not ever.

07:52OK.

07:53But certainly when I'm dancing.

07:55When I'm dancing with Jojo, because in ballroom I tend to sort of sit down when I'm about

08:00to sort of do a natural move.

08:02OK.

08:03And it looks like I'm sitting on the toilet.

08:05OK.

08:06So.

08:07But you know I'd have asked something different.

08:09If I mean that was...

08:10You're having the time of your life, aren't you, Jojo?

08:11I absolutely am, my darling.

08:13I mean, she's introduced me to a few things.

08:15And I'm absolutely loving how we...

08:16The toilet?

08:19Not the toilet.

08:20But I've learned a new way of warming up.

08:22What do you?

08:23Play the music.

08:24Yeah.

08:25And just feel it and see where it takes you.

08:27Ooh.

08:28Yes, yes.

08:29We do sort of interpretive dance every week.

08:32I love that.

08:33Yes.

08:34I did that once in 1986.

08:35The scores are in.
