00:00This is Blackpool.
00:17Strictly brings magic to Blackpool.
00:19It does.
00:20Getting to Blackpool just feels like such an achievement.
00:23Everything in the Strictly calendar gears up to this moment.
00:25I'm quite nervous, but I'm sure when I see Carlos and the music kicks in, I'll be alright.
00:29It's something that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
00:32Just to have this one chance to...
00:37Everything feels a little bit elevated.
00:40I don't know if they've put something in my shoes or if that's just Blackpool.
00:43I feel nervous.
00:44Let's rock the tower.
00:46Three, two, one.
00:48Hello, Blackpools!
00:52Lavoie has very sadly had to withdraw from the competition.
00:57Listen up everyone, because we have an announcement.
01:00We can reveal no one will be leaving Strictly this weekend.
01:13By far.
01:14You are a star and I think you want to make that final.
01:16I feel it. I feel it.
01:17Backpools!
01:19Yay!
01:21I thought it was sultry, I thought it was sensational.
01:24Beautiful.
01:25Thank you so much.
01:26That is epic.
01:28It will go down in history.
01:30Five, two, one, you're up.
01:34Yay!
01:35The pressure was off.
01:40I feel like everyone just went out there and had the most fun.
01:45It's nice to not have a dampener at the end of it so we can sort of leave with a happy feeling.
01:49Yeah.
01:50I saw Lavoie, though.
01:51Yeah.
01:52And then I was like, oh, my heart.
01:53Because of me, no one goes home.
01:54I remember that.
01:57My real good feeling.
01:59One, two, three.
02:26One, two, three.
02:27Well, I heard about the fella you've been dancing with all over the neighborhood.
02:31So when you asked me, baby, didn't you think I'd come?
02:37Well, I know that we're going to do it.
02:40I say, sing a little baby tonight.
02:43Well, if that's when you were the only thing, I would show you how to do it by.
02:49Do it by.
02:51Do it by.
02:53Do it by.
02:54Do it by.
02:55Do it by.
02:56Do it by.
02:58Do it by.
03:01Do it by.
03:09Yeah, we said shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, own baby.
03:12And over and let me see if she can tell, Bella
03:15And over and let me see if she can tell, Bella
03:18Come on and let me see if she can tell, Bella
03:21Come on and let me see if she can tell, Bella
03:26Come on!
03:30It was a teenage wedding and the old folks wish them well
03:36Said I need a city old folks
03:38Got to show you never can tell
03:42Who?
03:45Where?
03:50Who?
03:52Who?
03:53Who?
03:55Who?
04:02Who?
07:34From the Tower Ballroom, this is Strictly Come Dancing.
07:41Please welcome, Tess Davies and Claudia Winkleman.
08:06Thank you so much to Jason Gilkinson, our professional dancers and our returning stars for that incredible opening to the show.
08:14Nobody is going home tonight.
08:15Nobody is going home tonight.
08:16The judges' scores and the public votes will be carried over and combined with next week's judges' scores and public votes.
08:22Then there will be a dance-off.
08:24Very soon, we'll be speaking to all of our couples, and we say goodbye to the wonderful Le Bois.
08:33But first, it was raining 10s on Saturday.
08:35But first, it was raining 10s on Saturday.
08:36Let's take a look at how everything unfolded on our big night in Dutton.
08:39What an extravaganza of a show here at the Tower Ballroom.
08:52I couldn't agree more, Shirley.
08:53I mean, that was just incredible.
08:58Wow is the word of the night.
08:59Yes.
09:00Bring me down.
09:01At the top of the leaderboard, we have Lewis and Katia.
09:04For me, that was the standout dance of the evening.
09:07I could not hold it.
09:09We just opened Blackpool.
09:12We got a 40.
09:14It couldn't have went any better.
09:16I am on cloud nine.
09:18And hot on their heels are Karen and Carlos.
09:21And George and Alexis.
09:24Karen, they had Paso doble.
09:26I had goosebumps.
09:2839, at Blackpool, doing the Paso.
09:31That will be with me forever.
09:35George, closing the show was absolutely unbelievable.
09:39Blackpool has just elevated everything.
09:44You got three.
09:45I did, yeah.
09:46Your hips were doing something.
09:49In the middle of the leaderboard, we have Amber and Nikita
09:52and Alex and Johannes.
09:55I love this dance so much.
09:56I really enjoyed dancing it.
09:58I thought she did rather remarkably well.
10:00It was sensual, that sass here and there.
10:03Let's do another one sometime.
10:07I thought Amber's quick step was a Blackpool quick step.
10:10She needed this space.
10:11Also some fantastic footwork.
10:13She's really starting to pay attention to small details.
10:16The energy in the room.
10:19I have never felt a feeling like it before.
10:21I want to bottle that and remember it forever.
10:24On the other end of the leaderboard, we have Valvinda and Julian.
10:30Valvinda, our comeback queen.
10:31I'm in four dance-off and every single time coming back stronger, never giving up.
10:37Nothing can hinder Valvinda.
10:38The Argentine tango at Blackpool.
10:42That is a very special dream that has come true for me tonight.
10:46But my heart could burst.
10:48It's brilliant.
10:50None of us have the deciding vote tonight.
10:53So we can relax a little bit darling.
10:55Because our scores will be carried over from this week to next week.
10:59And then the pressure is really on.
11:02Because the quarter-finals are looming.
11:05Everybody loves the sunshine.
11:09The scores have been carried over to next week.
11:14They are still super important.
11:16I never take anything for granted.
11:19Next week will think about what comes next week.
11:21We have another week to experience Strictly Come Dancing.
11:25It's epic!
11:27The scores are very close together.
11:29I'm sure they will be next week.
11:30The public's vote is hugely important now.
11:34The competition is hotting up.
11:35And we just have to keep bringing it week after week after week.
11:38We are here with six such happy couples.
11:49Isn't it amazing?
11:50Nikita, I've got to ask you that moment when Tess announced no dance-off
11:55and you all...
11:56I thought...
11:57We thought you'd be happy.
11:58You just jumped up.
11:59I love that reaction.
12:00What did it feel like?
12:02To be honest, Claude, I didn't understand what Tess said.
12:06I was so confused.
12:08Sorry.
12:09Yeah, I was so confused, Tess.
12:10And then I asked him, what is happening?
12:12And she told me we are through.
12:13I'm like, how?
12:14What did we do?
12:15We didn't even know.
12:16Yeah, no, just the biggest elation ever.
12:19I mean, it's just to be in Blackpool.
12:21Yeah.
12:22Especially to go through.
12:23And you know, it's just that relief.
12:25No.
12:26It's just that relief.
12:27And I think everybody performed their best
12:29because nobody had that stress.
12:31Everybody just gave their best and was just gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
12:34Loved it.
12:35Good.
12:36Amber, tell me what it's been like, just the reception in Blackpool.
12:39Because we're addicted to it.
12:40Oh, I just love the world.
12:41Honestly, the people of Blackpool have welcomed us so much.
12:48We've had people standing outside of our hotel.
12:51Yeah.
12:52Ten selfies I got us for yesterday.
12:53That's a record.
12:54I texted my mum and I said, Mum, I've made it to Blackpool.
12:58Yeah.
12:59But it's been amazing.
13:00It's...
13:01To experience Strictly Come Dancing's Blackpool Iconic Week, I mean, it's a dream come true
13:05for all of us.
13:06It's amazing.
13:07I'm sure.
13:08Karen, you scored 3-10 this week.
13:12Your highest score yet.
13:13So well deserved.
13:14Are you still pinching yourself?
13:15Yeah.
13:16I can't believe it, honestly.
13:17It was such an amazing crowd, amazing venue.
13:18Dancing with this guy.
13:19I love dancing with it.
13:20And then the score just topped it.
13:21So it was wicked.
13:22It's so good.
13:23Carlos, how proud are you of Karen?
13:24I mean, I couldn't say more to perform something like that in this magical place.
13:28I'm really, really, I'm really, really emotional.
13:29Thank you for that.
13:30Aww.
13:31You've got Couples Choice next week.
13:32We do.
13:33You won't wait for that.
13:34You won't wait for that.
13:35You won't wait for that.
13:36I won't wait for that.
13:37I won't wait for that.
13:38I won't wait for that.
13:39You won't wait for that.
13:40Yeah, I won't wait for that.
13:41Yeah, I can't believe it, honestly.
13:42It was such an amazing crowd, amazing venue.
13:44Dancing with this guy.
13:45I love dancing with it.
13:46And then the score just topped it.
13:47So it was wicked.
13:48We've got Couples Choice next week.
13:49We don't.
13:50You won't wait for that.
13:51What can we expect?
13:52I don't know.
13:53We've been having, like, disagreements, I'd say, about what we want you to do.
14:01Because I was trying to tell you how we do a fussy, fussy, fussy, fussy, fussy.
14:04We do a jash, jash, jash, jash, jash.
14:06We do a ballet, ballet, ballet, ballet, ballet.
14:08We do a commercial.
14:09Ha, ha, ha.
14:10She's at Carlos, all I want to be is free.
14:13Yeah.
14:14Yay!
14:15Well, there you go.
14:16No rules and the Couples Choice.
14:17Yes.
14:18We cannot wait to watch it.
14:19Can't wait.
14:20Congratulations.
14:21George, I've got a fact for you.
14:22Nobody has ever got a ten for a salsa in Blackpool.
14:26In Street.
14:27CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
14:30And you got three.
14:32You got three.
14:35You broke science.
14:37How do you feel about it?
14:38I don't know.
14:39I don't feel like I deserve to be in a history book.
14:41That feels wrong.
14:42You do, George.
14:43No, I'm still sort of trying to come to terms with the fact that I got like one ten, let alone three.
14:48That's mental.
14:50Well, congratulations.
14:52Alexis, how was your first Strictly Blackpool?
14:55Hasn't been?
14:56It's been electric.
14:57I am just in a state of awe constantly.
15:00Last time I was in Blackpool was when I was younger and competing and it's a full circle moment for sure.
15:05And it's just so special and just the night and I'm just speechless.
15:09It's insane.
15:10Well, you did the salsa.
15:13Can you please tell us what dance we're doing and to what song next week?
15:17Yes.
15:18We are doing a quick step to this.
15:20I get a kick.
15:23Oh!
15:25So classy.
15:27How do you feel about that, George?
15:30I'll be frank.
15:32LAUGHTER
15:37Lewis, you have now scored a total of ten tens.
15:42APPLAUSE
15:43Yeah, what about that?
15:46And your second perfect score was on Saturday.
15:51I take it you're now a fan of Blackpool.
15:53I love Blackpool.
15:55I think I might have to move here.
15:57Oh, it's fantastic.
15:58I mean, it's been brilliant being in Blackpool and to be in the ballroom, you know, I've never felt anything like it.
16:04It's just absolutely wild.
16:06The sort of the support from everyone in the audience, but as well as the surrounding, it's just super special.
16:11Katya, you two have had such a journey together, but the dynamic changed a little bit this week, didn't it?
16:16Yeah, it feels like they are our dance partners.
16:20You know, they're not contestants or students.
16:23They've entered this ballroom in a different capacity as our dance partners.
16:28And it really, really felt like it.
16:30So, you and us, I don't know.
16:33Thank you very much.
16:34Never had one.
16:35LAUGHTER
16:37Can we have a conversation about your dog, Alex?
16:39Because you know I'm in love with him.
16:41He's called Wolfie.
16:43He's got involved in Strictly.
16:45He really has got involved in Strictly.
16:47He's got a couple of outfits now.
16:50He has a ballroom number and he also has a Latin number that he likes to wear.
16:56We have a photo of him.
16:58This is when he's in his Latin era.
17:00Yes.
17:01Let's have a look.
17:02LAUGHTER
17:04The thing is, he has a neck that I want to try and achieve when I'm dancing.
17:12Whenever I'm dancing with Jojo, if we're doing ballroom or something,
17:15he says, you know, extend your neck, long neck.
17:17My dog just does it naturally.
17:19LAUGHTER
17:20We should all be more wolfy.
17:22LAUGHTER
17:23What aren't you doing next week and to what song, please?
17:25We are doing a cha-cha-cha.
17:27Ooh!
17:28To this.
17:29Yeah!
17:30It's a green mother.
17:31Bingo.
17:32Green mother.
17:33Bingo.
17:34Green mother.
17:35Bingo.
17:36Bingo.
17:37Bingo.
17:38Bingo.
17:39Bingo.
17:40Bingo.
17:41Good girl.
17:42Very good.
17:43How are you feeling about the cha-cha?
17:44Oh, I'm super excited.
17:45Are you?
17:46Yeah, yeah, yeah.
17:47Super...
17:48Yeah, yeah, yeah.
17:49Cha-cha-cha.
17:50Good girl.
17:51Burn everything in threes.
17:52We cannot wait to see it.
17:54Balvinda, on Saturday night, you did an Argentine tango in the Tower Ballroom.
18:00What I believe there is one other thing on your Blackpool bucket list,
18:04is that right?
18:05Yes.
18:06What is it?
18:07A cream tea at the Tower.
18:09Cream tea!
18:10I can sniff a cream tea out anywhere.
18:12Can you?
18:13I wouldn't let you go home without you.
18:15Here we go.
18:19I am so with you.
18:21What is my life?
18:22We've only been out for 12 hours.
18:24LAUGHTER
18:25That's amazing.
18:26Delicious.
18:27Does anybody want some?
18:28Scone.
18:29Scone.
18:30Scone.
18:31Scone.
18:32Scone.
18:33Scone.
18:34If you're at norm, it's a scone.
18:35It's a scone.
18:36It's a scone.
18:37Julian, it's week 10 next week.
18:38What are you dancing to?
18:40We are dancing the jive to this.
18:44Woo-hoo!
18:45To this.
18:46All right.
18:47All right.
18:48All right.
18:49All right.
18:50All right.
18:51All right.
18:52All right.
18:53All right.
18:54Oh, well.
18:55How are you feeling about the jive?
18:57I don't know, to be honest with you.
18:59It's fast, isn't it?
19:00It is.
19:01Very fast.
19:02Yeah, yeah.
19:03We're off to a good start.
19:04Excellent.
19:05I know the words.
19:06We can't wait.
19:07You're going to be fantastic.
19:08Now, next week, I'm just going to say this out loud,
19:11the competition is ramping up.
19:13Strictly has a brand new challenge.
19:15Everyone hold hands.
19:16Have a look at this.
19:18Next week, for the first time, our celebs face the instant dance.
19:28Picking a dance style at random to perform on the spot.
19:33And at this crucial point in the competition, it's a chance to gain extra marks and turn the leaderboard on its head.
19:43It's the ultimate test of how much they have learned and how in tune they are with their dance partners.
19:50And with a place in the quarter-final at stake, the spotlight will be on them more than ever.
20:04That is instant dance.
20:07And I should explain, you have selected your envelopes.
20:10You have signed your envelopes.
20:11You have no idea what dance you are going to get.
20:15It's going to be fantastic.
20:17Don't make that face.
20:18Amber, how are you feeling?
20:19Is it going to be fantastic?
20:20It's going to be great.
20:21It's going to be chaotic.
20:22It's going to be chaotic.
20:23We like chaos.
20:24Nikita, you're into it, aren't you?
20:27I am.
20:28Imagine live television.
20:30You don't know the dance.
20:32You don't know the costume.
20:33You don't know the song.
20:34You know nothing.
20:35And the best part, nobody can stop you.
20:39When you say it like that, it's going to be so much fun.
20:43George, you're trying to know as much as the envelope, but very excited about the challenge.
20:47I think it will just be a laugh.
20:49I mean, I know it will go awfully, but either it goes awfully and I'm upset about it.
20:54I'm having a good time.
20:55I'll just try and smile.
20:57I'll just point at her the whole time and go.
21:00Do that.
21:01Karen, you have concerns about Carlos, don't you, during your dance?
21:06What?
21:07Why?
21:08Do share.
21:09It's Carlos.
21:10I never know what he's doing at the best of days and then adding what you explain there,
21:16Nikita, I'm just going to go, go on, Carlos, do your thing, and I just clap.
21:19Carlos, can you put Karen's mind at ease?
21:24I mean, it's instant dance.
21:25Yes.
21:26My mind will be instant too.
21:27Oh, gosh.
21:28What does that mean?
21:30What does that even mean?
21:32Now, Lewis, as well as not knowing what you're dancing or what music you're dancing to,
21:39you also don't know what you'll be wearing.
21:41And you're a little bit worried about what Katya might pick to wear, I've heard.
21:45I am.
21:46I absolutely am.
21:47I think, you know, she's quite rogue in the dress sense.
21:51And she might...
21:52I think you might put, like, no, I think you'll, like, layer some jeans with a skirt.
21:56I think you'll have about five different layers.
21:58We're all right with that.
21:59Some people are quite positive.
22:00Alex, you're quite...
22:01I'm terrified.
22:02I'm absolutely terrified.
22:03Because I just feel like, what if the envelope I picked is, for example, the Viennese waltz
22:10that I did seven weeks ago.
22:12And I...
22:13I mean, a fleckle?
22:14I can't remember how to fleckle.
22:17It's...
22:18I...
22:19And we're sort of in front of millions of people live on TV.
22:23I'm...
22:24Yes, I am quietly terrified.
22:26I really am, actually.
22:27JoJo, it is scary for the celebs, but this is normal for pros.
22:31It's quite normal for professionals, because that's what...
22:33That's our world, is built like that.
22:35You go to the competition, you don't know what music is going to be played.
22:37Strictly is lush for that reason.
22:39Mm-hm.
22:40Because you are prepared.
22:41But this is more a real setting, isn't it?
22:44What we do in our world.
22:45They play the music and you dance.
22:47And we have prepared choreography, we just have to remember what it is.
22:51Yeah!
22:52Well, it's talked to me about that.
22:54So, will you prepare 40 seconds of dancing this week, as well as learning a whole new dance?
22:59Absolutely.
23:00That's the pressure.
23:02Yeah!
23:03This is madness!
23:05Yes!
23:06My darling, just look into my eyes.
23:07Don't do that.
23:08Don't do that.
23:09Yeah, all right there, I will.
23:10At least we know, Balbinder, that it is a dance that you've already performed in the competition.
23:16Does that give you a little bit more confidence?
23:17I mean, if you say so, I'm not so sure.
23:21We'll just throw out some steps and see what happens.
23:24Julian, how can the celebs prepare for an instant dance?
23:28Just go all in.
23:29Because, like Johanna said, this is kind of like a bit more of a glimpse into Latin and Boreham.
23:34And at its core, Latin and Boreham is improvising.
23:37It's just two people having a conversation and having a dance together.
23:40And I actually think that these 40 seconds will probably be some of the most memorable 40 seconds of the series.
23:46It could be for great reasons.
23:49But I genuinely think it's going to be magical.
23:54So, I think you don't underestimate what you know.
23:58Look how much you've learned.
24:00Back yourselves, guys.
24:01Back yourselves, guys.
24:02It's muscle memory.
24:03It's got to come much.
24:04It's muscle memory, and if not, twirling.
24:06Yeah.
24:07Now for some music.
24:08Please welcome this sensational Nois Capaldi.
24:12CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
24:17Eyes of emerald and white, more precious than gold.
24:27Hands as soft as the sand, but harder to hold.
24:35Tonight could be the last time, your heartbeat and mine are ever this close.
24:43But life can cut like a knife, that's just how it goes.
24:49Well, till the day I die, I will dream of you.
24:58In a million lives, you're the one I choose.
25:08I love you till my last breath.
25:18You're gone by.
25:21Something in the heavens loves me, then we'll be together again.
25:26Sounds of gathering clouds are all that I hear.
25:51You're the one I choose.
26:16I'll love you
26:24Till my last breath
26:29You're gone, boy
26:32Something in the heavens
26:34Let's be limp or be together
26:36And I'll see you
26:40All around the day
26:45You're gone, boy
26:48Something in the heavens
26:50Tells me that we'll be together again
26:54Together again
26:58Something in the heavens
27:07Tells me that we'll be together again
27:10Something in the heavens
27:23Let's be limp or be together again
27:26Thank you to Louis Piccoli and our professional dancers Diane, Lauren, Vito and Neil
27:38Now, welcome to the fairground
27:53It's the judges
27:54Amazing
28:03Thank you so much
28:04First of all, can we just have a conversation about this?
28:07There was a 40
28:08There were 10 10s
28:09And everybody up their scores
28:13What is in the air here?
28:14What happened?
28:15Magic, Charlie
28:16Magic
28:17Magic
28:17Now, I think it puts pressure on absolutely every contestant
28:21To do their absolute best
28:23Yes
28:23Of course
28:23And plus they've got a sprung floor
28:25Which we love
28:26And I'm not just saying this
28:27A wonderful audience
28:28A fantastic audience
28:30And it's just a really brilliant atmosphere
28:34And it's exciting
28:35So everyone does their best
28:36And plus they did find out
28:38That they had a buy-through, darling
28:40So that does take the pressure off
28:42Which is great
28:43They were fantastic
28:44They really did well
28:45It's always Blackpool different energy
28:48But they were just
28:50Honestly
28:50I mean, Shirley, you said it before
28:52It feels like
28:53Dance is the highlight
28:55Everybody honestly gave so much of themselves
28:57It was beautiful
28:58At the beginning of the series
29:00When everybody comes in
29:01They're all excited to reach this event
29:03Yes
29:03At the Tower Ballroom
29:05And I think everybody accelerated
29:06And did the very, very best
29:08And it's just been wonderful
29:09We've never experienced that, have we?
29:11No
29:11I mean, we've always had great Blackpools
29:13But this seems something, like you said
29:15That was in the air
29:16Absolutely
29:16They're going to be delighted on Monday morning
29:18When they get back into the studio
29:20And start rehearsing again for next week
29:22They're going to be delighted with this week's performance
29:25Yes
29:25Because they were terrific performances
29:27It's such a good point
29:29Shirley, I'd love to talk to you about Lewis
29:31Because both you and Motsi said
29:33And this is so true
29:34That somehow he accelerated
29:35Even towards the end
29:37When anybody else would be like
29:38Well, it comes under the heading of dynamics
29:41It's when you can change different energies
29:43So we started at the very, very beginning
29:45With power
29:46And he was going
29:47And he was shifting
29:48But he never decelerated, did he?
29:50He went and he accelerated towards the end
29:52Very rare when you're watching a performance
29:54Because normally it dwindles at the end
29:56And he didn't
29:57OK, thank you so much
29:59Craig, I'd love to ask you about Val Vindic
30:01It was such a great dance, wasn't it?
30:03Well, it was
30:03It was a dance that really suited her
30:05She obviously looked like she was into it
30:08Enjoyed it
30:09It was one that she was loving
30:10So she paid more attention to it
30:12I think, you know, everything has improved
30:15She was very much in the middle of the road for me
30:17I was giving her sevens week after week after week
30:20And I didn't see that much improvement
30:22And I noticed in this dance
30:25That she improved, you know
30:27And it was really lovely to see
30:29Anton, I'd love to ask you about George
30:31He got three tens
30:32That's perfect timing, isn't it?
30:35This is exactly how you want it to go
30:39You want to show an improvement
30:40And we've all been asking for sort of the same thing, really
30:44We want more of you
30:46We want you to give it more
30:47We want you to sell it more
30:48But when you reach this new level
30:50It takes something like this sometimes
30:52Blackpool
30:52You get to that next level
30:54Then you go, ah
30:55I know what you're talking about
30:57I understand what you're talking about now
30:59OK, thank you so much
31:00Motsi, I love what you said to Kaz
31:03And you said you didn't have a paddle high enough
31:06Yeah
31:07Could we just remind ourselves
31:08That passo was extraordinary
31:10It was a moment
31:11I mean, you know
31:12The thing is
31:13What you want at the end of the day
31:14Somebody to come on the dance floor
31:16And you feel like there is absolutely nothing left
31:19She gave us absolutely this moment
31:22This music
31:23She just put her heart on the dance floor
31:26And I just enjoyed it
31:27Because she's so authentic
31:29She's so real
31:30And she, you know
31:32Those spins in there
31:33They were so difficult
31:34And she was going and pushing
31:36And this whole music
31:37And everything just felt unbelievable
31:39I mean, we had goosebumps
31:40From the word go
31:41With Stray
31:42We're like
31:42Can you believe this?
31:44Because it was
31:45It was fantastic
31:46It was phenomenal
31:47So I only have one word to say
31:49Yes
31:49Craig
31:50I knew this was coming
31:52What's the matter with you?
31:54I loved it
31:56She dances her in her own way
31:58Actually
31:59And, you know, we're all of different opinions
32:01I felt like it was
32:03Her arms and her attack
32:05Was all on one level
32:06For me, I would have liked to have seen
32:08Just a little bit more flair
32:09In the Spanish
32:11Pau de Bras
32:12Everyone
32:14Inhale
32:15And exhale
32:16Listen, when she's doing it
32:17In the final, darling
32:18You know, she might be
32:19Don't knock on wood
32:21Find some wood
32:21Now, judges
32:22Next week
32:23It is
32:24Instant dance
32:25Before we discuss
32:26Let's have a look at this
32:27Today, we will be picking
32:34What dance style
32:36We will be doing
32:37For the instant dance
32:38I'm quite nervous
32:40Going into this
32:40Just because
32:41I have no control
32:42Over anything right now
32:44Right
32:44We've made it to this point
32:46Here we go
32:48Instant dance selection
32:49I don't want to do it
32:50I would like a Viennese waltz
32:53That's fresh on the brain
32:54I don't want the cha-cha-cha
32:56Because we were in the dance-off
32:57I hope it's not a pass-off
32:58Please give us a jive
32:59Wait
33:00What?
33:02Oh, for goodness sake
33:04Are you ready?
33:06Go
33:06You got this
33:06Come on
33:07Let me see
33:07Orange
33:11Orange
33:12Oh, this is scary
33:14That feels like the cha-cha
33:15Does it?
33:17Let's go sign our names
33:18We are literally signing up
33:22Our fate right now
33:24Oh, no
33:25I'll meet you on the dance floor
33:27When we open this envelope
33:28The fate is sealed
33:31I don't know how I feel
33:35Improvising is one of the hardest things you can do
33:38As a professional dancer
33:40It's going to be difficult
33:41We don't know the music
33:42We don't know the style
33:43I'd not even thought of the music
33:46I don't remember anything
33:47I don't even remember last week's dance
33:49You literally can't prepare
33:50You just gotta not panic
33:52And I will panic
33:54Now, Moxie, you have done this in Germany
34:03Yes
34:03How does it play out?
34:05Well, it's really exciting
34:07The question is
34:07Have they really learned to dance?
34:09Have they understood what they're doing?
34:11Have they understood the character of the dance?
34:13Have they learned their basic steps?
34:15And you have to trust your partner
34:17So have they built those trustful partnerships
34:19Where you can, like, lead and follow and let go
34:23I mean, I've seen people have blackouts
34:25And just, like, stand there
34:27But I've seen some magical moments
34:29Where
34:30I want to see that
34:31No!
34:32Yes, I need to
34:33What I love is
34:34Anything can happen
34:35Well, that's true
34:36But we dance in life, don't we?
34:38Yeah
34:38You know, you get up at a disco, darling
34:40You're not choreographed, are you?
34:42You get up and dance with someone
34:43So, uh
34:44No, no
34:46Even if you do that
34:47Hold on a second
34:47Hold on a second
34:49Yeah, but
34:49You don't do a cha-cha
34:51In a disco
34:51No, I don't go to a disco
34:53But what I mean
34:53Yeah, I love you
34:54But you're
34:55That's something else
34:56I mean, you're dancing
34:57Yeah
34:57With a partner
34:58In front of
34:59People watching
35:00I think they're going to get a dance
35:01That they have done in the past
35:02Yes, they are
35:03It's going to be
35:04Whether they can remember it
35:06So
35:06And to the music
35:07And a short notice
35:08On a minute or so
35:09They've got to pick the costume
35:11Pick the dance
35:12The music they will have never heard
35:13Then they've got to trust their own judgment
35:15And can they follow their partner
35:17So that's going to be
35:18Absolute chaos
35:20And we're all here for it
35:21Yeah
35:21Shake it up
35:23Shake it up
35:24Why not?
35:25Let's shake it up
35:26I mean, it could flip the entire leaderboard
35:28Yeah
35:28Right?
35:29So that's what's quite interesting
35:31Yeah, I am
35:31Anton, when you were dancing on the show
35:33I think you'd have been spectacular at this
35:35Thank you
35:36I do
35:36Well, thank you very much
35:38But are you quite pleased?
35:39You never had to do it
35:40I'm not having to do it
35:40Well, I have to be honest with you
35:42I've had the great pleasure of dancing with many, many ladies over the years
35:46And every week it felt like instant dance
35:48No matter how long we've paused
35:51It is going to be really exciting
35:54And I can't
35:55I can't wait
35:57Oh, I can't wait
35:59It could be car crash television
36:00And I'm very much looking forward
36:02Which would be brilliant
36:03Greggy
36:05It might be the Linda Hopper song
36:06All over it
36:07I do remember that
36:09I will never forget it
36:10Er, Motsy
36:11While you were travelling
36:12To Blackpool
36:13These three
36:14They had some time on their hands
36:15And we filmed it
36:16Just for you
36:17Have a look
36:18I heard
36:18Why am I at the front?
36:20Don't let me be at the front
36:21Are you ready, Greggy?
36:24And we're on
36:25I know you guys love Blackpool
36:51But that was commitment
36:52Let's hear it for our judges
36:54Thank you
36:55Now one couple
36:59Who sadly won't be joining us next week
37:01Is LaVoie and Aliash
37:03Before we chat to them
37:04Let's look back
37:05At their wonderful time
37:06In the show
37:07Hello darlings
37:12I'm LaVoie
37:13Simply fabulous
37:14Don't know where Aliash starts
37:20And I end
37:21Look if we're just the right
37:22Mashed together like a tomato
37:23Ali Blanc
37:24You still know how to put on a show
37:26Thank you
37:27And you clearly used to work at Bullens
37:29Thank you
37:30So far this series
37:32She's had a lot to say
37:33About my outfits
37:34And tonight
37:35For her Mary Poppins waltz
37:37She's dressed
37:38As the bird woman
37:39As the bird woman
37:39I'll get you back for this daily
37:42We're in the ballroom
37:46And Aliash keeps holding out the arms
37:48It's going to frame
37:49And I just keep thinking he wants a hug
37:50Do you know the address where you send your CV to the BBC
37:57Just in case there's any new jobs coming up
37:59I'm just asking for a friend
38:01Tonight I think for the first time I get what you guys feel with dancing
38:06And how magical it can feel
38:07You are what we call a true diva
38:11I can't help but love you
38:13Beautiful
38:14I just love you
38:16We need the rainbow
38:17We need you
38:19It's been amazing
38:20You were beaming throughout
38:22You're a born entertainer
38:23That has worked hard
38:25For every single inch of the success you have gotten
38:27You are a gift
38:29You are a gift
38:30To me
38:30You really are
38:31I love you
38:31Wow
38:40So many great moments
38:44You've been such a highlight this series
38:46Oh my gosh
38:46Thank you
38:47So that was beautiful to watch that back
38:48It really was
38:49This has been the most extraordinary experience
38:52Of my entire life
38:53It really has
38:53What have you loved most?
38:55If that's not too hard
38:56What have I loved most?
38:57Don't hate me
38:57But it's not been the dancing
38:59It's been
39:00Just been welcomed on the show
39:02With the most amazing warmth
39:04From everyone
39:05From the whole crew backstage
39:07The judges
39:08To the pros
39:09To the celebs
39:09To you two
39:10To everyone
39:11It's been amazing
39:11I came into the show
39:12As a minority
39:14You know
39:14As a redhead
39:15And you know
39:17And you've just all embraced me wonderfully
39:20And I just
39:21I cannot thank you enough
39:22For just this most magical
39:23Magical journey
39:24It's been amazing
39:25Aliash
39:25Lavoie
39:26Has had us all
39:28In stitches
39:29Since day one
39:30How much are you going to miss
39:31Your training sessions together?
39:33Yeah
39:33Lavoie had everyone in stitches
39:35On a Saturday and Sunday night
39:36But I was in stitches
39:38Seven days a week
39:39Yeah
39:40And you know
39:41We always say
39:42I've made a friend for life
39:44On Strictly
39:44But I've been lucky this year
39:46Because I feel like
39:47I made two friends for life
39:48On Saturday and Sundays
39:50We all laughed with Lavoie
39:52But from Monday to Thursday and Friday
39:55I had the best time with Chris
39:57And genuinely
39:59I haven't done a single crunch
40:02In the last four months
40:03But I got my six pack back
40:05Which is amazing
40:06You are like
40:07I think
40:08You know who you described it the best
40:09Actually
40:10I wouldn't say it was my idea
40:12But Mozi said it the best
40:13We all need it
40:14I feel like the world needs more of you
40:16Yeah
40:16And I think Strictly needed it
40:19And you made my life
40:21Just a joy
40:23For the last weeks
40:25And I'm going to miss going to rehearsals
40:27I'm going to miss dancing with you
40:28I'm going to miss creating with you
40:30And you are so brilliant at what you do
40:33And it was
40:34It's true
40:35Thank you
40:36So sweet
40:37Absolutely
40:37Thank you
40:38Lavoie
40:39Strictly is about partnerships
40:42And I feel like
40:44You both feel incredibly lucky
40:46That you got each other
40:48What would you like to say to Ania?
40:50God
40:51Just
40:51Just so lucky
40:52I mean
40:53What you see on that dance floor
40:54Is a fraction
40:55Of the love and the passion
40:57And the heart
40:57That this man has
40:59For dance and his craft
41:00And you have
41:02Made me carry on
41:04When I've questioned myself
41:05You've made me laugh
41:06Through the toughest days
41:07And when I haven't thought
41:08I could do something
41:09You never gave up on me once
41:12Not once
41:13And
41:14I'm going to leave this experience
41:16Braver
41:17Happier
41:18And
41:18Such a more confident person
41:20And that's because of you
41:21So thank you
41:22I love you
41:23I love you
41:24And you've formed
41:27Such strong bonds
41:29With all of your fellow cast
41:30Haven't you
41:30It's so sad to say goodbye
41:32Well
41:32No of course
41:35We have
41:35You know
41:35And I just think
41:36With me leaving
41:37Unexpected
41:38This is not how I wanted
41:39My journey to end
41:39At least it gives
41:40Someone else
41:41In this competition
41:42A chance to win now
41:43I think that's okay
41:45We love you
41:46Lavoie
41:47And we're going to see you
41:48Shortly
41:48On the floor
41:50For a proper
41:50Strictly send off
41:51Which you deserve
