00:0075's next week.
00:02It's gonna be epic.
00:04I'm just gonna go for it.
00:06It's time to get my costume on.
00:08I'm being shimmed up to glimmer in the night.
00:11The musicals are about to begin.
00:14My heart's going pitter-patter.
00:16Musical week in three, two, one.
00:22Too clean, too neat.
00:25An absolute sensation.
00:29I thought you were saying bad things.
00:31Yes!
00:32Hey!
00:33Was the dance fantastic?
00:35Yes.
00:36Was it your best?
00:37Not in my opinion.
00:39You were magnificent.
00:41I absolutely am.
00:43What you have been through in this competition.
00:47Oh, my God.
00:49I'm sorry.
00:51Aw.
00:52It was a little bit phonetic and too busy,
00:55but what a fantastic dance.
00:58Where did these moves come from, Kaz?
01:00Hi!
01:01Hi!
01:02I love this.
01:03This is the George I really enjoy.
01:06Oh, God!
01:07Everyone!
01:12Everyone's giving it everything.
01:14You just don't know which way it's gonna swing.
01:16I've never seen the leader but so packed together.
01:19I feel like everyone's worried.
01:20No one feels safe.
01:21Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination.
01:27Oh!
01:28Oh!
01:29Oh!
01:30Oh!
01:31Oh!
01:32Oh!
01:33Oh!
01:34Oh!
01:35No!
01:36Oh, that's Goin'!
01:37I'm on my bit of advocating to play with.
01:38Allo!
01:40Oh!
01:41So so ready?
01:42Oh
01:44una,aine totally reallyнеhan!
01:45Welcome to strictly come dancing the results on Saturday
01:58It was a very exciting leaderboard with amber and Nikita getting a perfect 40 and a score of just one
02:05Separating our other four couples with only two weeks to go until our champions are crowned
02:10Everything is on the line who will make it through to next week's semi-final
02:15You've had your say and tonight two couples will take on the penultimate dance-off of the series
02:21But first let's see what the judges thought of our night at the musicals
02:31What a night of musical magic, I think this is one of the most amazing
02:36Quarterfinals we've ever had. I think we had a really diverse range of dance routines really
02:43I mean look at Karen's you know that was quite wild for her
02:46Lewis had sort of everything in there
02:48Valvinda she's really come up the ranks hasn't she?
02:52George was serious for the first time and of course the big old showstopper of Amber and Nikita's Charleston
02:58I mean what an exciting evening
03:00It was you can see it by how close the leaderboard is
03:03Amber's perfect 40 means she sits at the top of the leaderboard
03:10Amber's dance with Nikita was absolutely ridiculously brilliant
03:1610! I would have been completely wrong I think to not give that a 10 because it was just extraordinary
03:23We got a 40! We got a 40 on musicals week
03:27George from the beginning he meant business
03:33I think it was the first time that I actually saw that he wants to be into the semi-final
03:37He doesn't want to be in the dance-off and the dancing spoke for itself
03:41And to see him so focused was quite surprising to me because he's always a bit of a giggly fella
03:46There's literally five people and three of us got the exact same score
03:49Balvin and Julian I mean what a night of emotion she's been in a quite a few dance-offs and she's
03:58championed her way through it that actually was Balvin just highest score of 35 if you want a scale of improvement
04:05Balvin do a bit at the top
04:07That went beautifully and then the applause
04:11Incredible
04:15As we know Lewis and Katya are fantastic dancers every week they've bought the a-game
04:19But today somehow it was not his best dance
04:23I mean I was probably rushing a little bit and I kind of need to relax a little bit more
04:27But I think I was just enjoying the dance too much and I needed to just chill out a bit
04:37I thought that Karen and Carlos's samba was a super dance for musicals week because they brought the show with them
04:44It did miss a few connections though with arms and fluidity well to be fair on bottom of the leaderboard
04:50But I it's so close though it's so close and what will be will be
04:58Next week is a semi-final two dances crazy
05:01Yeah, that's gonna be harder next week for them and the competition is strong
05:06This is gonna be all down to the people at home, isn't it?
05:08What came to their TV screen?
05:10You've got to make the decision
05:13This is tremendous news
05:14I'm sad now
05:21I'll always be nervous I think every result show I'm petrified
05:25You always have to be prepared and you always have to be ready
05:35The competition is so tight and everybody's very good at dancing now all we can do is just keep our fingers crossed
05:43Waiting under the light for the results to be revealed
05:46My breath is always short and I have to remind myself to just breathe
05:53This will determine who gets into the semi-final that makes me nervous. I hope that I've done enough this week
06:02The leaderboard is so tight. I could not tell you how the results show is going to go
06:16I'm
06:22Fantastic night of dance, but who have you decided deserves to stay in Strictly Come Dancing? Let's find out the results are in
06:34In no particular order the first couple with a place in the semi-final is
06:39Valvinda and Julia
06:59Thank you
07:01Thank you
07:03Thank you
07:05Thank you
07:07Thank you
07:12And the second couple joining them in next week's show is
07:24Karen and Carlos
07:26Congratulations, you are semi-finalists
07:35Let's chat to the judges
07:37Moxie, I don't think any of the other judges envy you because you have the casting vote tonight, don't you?
07:47I have the casting vote and if I see the couples left
07:56I am truly shocked
07:58It's going to be a tough decision
08:00I mean I hope that the other judges come to some sort of conclusion together so that I don't have the weight of the quarterfinals on my shoulders
08:06Anton, it was a really tight leaderboard so it's going to be a very competitive dance-off, isn't it?
08:15At least whoever it is that ends up in the dance-off you haven't got a face
08:17Balvinda so I mean so you've dodged a bullet there, let's be honest
08:23If we lose any of you, you will be
08:26One of the best dancers we've ever had on strictly come dancing to not make the final
08:42You're all amazing
08:46Thank you so much
08:48Claudia is up with our first two semi-finalists
08:50Thank you, Tess
08:52All I can say is I don't think I've ever sat next to two more shocked human beings
08:58Balvinda, what do you want to say to the people who want to make you and have made you a singer?
09:02I don't think I've ever sat next to two more shocked human beings
09:06Balvinda, what do you want to say to the people who want to make you and have made you a singer?
09:10What do you want to make you and have made you a semi-finalist?
09:14Firstly, I think I need to just say a huge thank you to every single person
09:18That has been on this journey with us and deemed as worthy of getting to the next stage
09:24Like just thank you, thank you, a thousand thank you
09:28Honestly, like, I'm shocked
09:32You worked so hard, you never let being in the dance staff hold you down
09:36And saturday night was magical
09:40How did it feel for the two of you?
09:42Yeah, I think I am
09:44I think we just went out there and just gave it our all
09:48I think literally our hearts were on the dance floor
09:50You know, just before we were
09:52Well, always before a performance, Bal gets a little bit nervous
09:54Yeah
09:55We always kind of try and pump each other up
09:57And I said, Bal, who are we?
09:59You know, and I said, who are you?
10:00And Bal was like, I'm Balvinda Sopal
10:02I'm a fighter
10:03And I am enough
10:05And so, yeah
10:08Bal, you've received some lovely messages from people
10:11Tell me about them
10:12Yeah, I mean, lots of inspirational messages from
10:16People that look like me
10:19Yeah
10:20Teachers have sent messages to say
10:21We need to be teaching this kind of perseverance
10:24This level of determination to our children
10:27Dust yourself off
10:28Get up and try again, you know
10:30So that's kind of kept me going
10:32It's just, yeah
10:33We're doing it for all the little people out there
10:35That can, you know, the stars are
10:38Yeah
10:39No, the moon's doing it, do you know what I mean?
10:41Absolutely
10:42I don't want to put adapter on things
10:44But you are doing two dances next week
10:48How does that make you feel?
10:50Two dances?
10:52And we can't improvise any of them
10:54Yeah, that's a shame
10:55Yeah, that's a shame

13:31Cicero
13:32Lipschitz
13:33He had it coming
13:34He had it coming
13:35He had it coming
13:36He only had himself to play
13:40If you'd have been there
13:42If you'd have seen it
13:44I bet you would have done the same
13:48You know how people have these little habits that get you down?
13:51Like Bernie
13:52Bernie
13:53He liked to chew gum
13:55No
13:56Not chew
13:57Pop
13:58So I said to him
13:59I said
14:00You pop that gum one more time
14:02And he did
14:04So
14:05I took our picture off the wall
14:07And I smashed it
14:09Smashed it all over our bed
14:13He had it coming
14:14He had it coming
14:15He had it coming
14:16I bet you you would have done the same
14:20He had it coming
14:23I met Ezekiel Young from Salt Lake City about two years ago
14:27And he told me he was single
14:29We hit it off right away
14:31But oh no
14:32He had six wives
14:34You know some guys just can't help themselves
14:38It was a drama but not a crime
14:41To throw my chips
14:42Now I'm standing in the kitchen carving up the chicken for dinner
14:46In storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage
14:49And he kept on screaming you've been seeing the milkman
14:52You've been seeing the milkman
14:54And then I cut him out my life
14:56I cut him out my life for the last time
15:00If you'd have been there
15:02If you'd have seen it
15:04I bet you you would have done the same
15:08Yeah but did you do it?
15:19Uh-uh
15:21Not guilty
15:23My sister Veronica and I had this double act
15:28And my husband Charlie travelled round with us
15:31So this one night before the show
15:33We were down at the Hotel Cicero
15:36And we ran out of ice
15:38So I go out to get some
15:40I come back
15:41Open the door
15:42And here is Veronica and Charlie
15:44Cut red handed
15:46Well it wasn't until later
15:50When I was washing my hands
15:52I even knew what I did
15:54How could you tell me that I was wrong
15:59I loved Al Lipschitz more than I can possibly say
16:02But he was always trying to find himself
16:04He'd go out every night looking for himself
16:07And on the way he found Roof
16:09Gladys
16:10Rosemary
16:11And Irving
16:12I guess you can say we broke up because of artistic differences
16:15He saw himself as in my life
16:18And I saw him
16:19gone
16:20The Dirty Bomb
16:22A Dirty Bomb
16:24Bum
16:26They had it gone
16:29They had it gone
16:30They had it gone
16:31They had it gone
16:32I made it gone
16:33They all draw the law
16:35Cos if they use
16:36Cos if they use
16:37And say our merits
16:38Cost if they excuse
16:39I said you'd tell us that we were wrong
16:42He had it gone
16:43Howdy, come, he had and come, he had and come, he heard and come, he already had and had and not put it chain
16:50Give it a bit, give it a bit, give it a little bit, give it a little bit, give it a ring
16:54How investing you would have done the same
16:58Pop
17:00Sex
17:02Squish
17:04Uh, Uh
17:06Cicero
17:08Lipschitz
17:13Thank you to choreographer Elizabeth Honan
17:42and our professional dancers for that amazing routine.
17:45It's now time for a dance debrief and to quote the musical Mamma Mia.
17:49Here we go again.
17:50Please welcome the judges.
17:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
17:53Thank you very much.
18:07First up, what did you think of Musicals Week, please?
18:10Oh, ho, ho, ho.
18:12Absolutely off the chart.
18:14I mean, we were saying earlier on it was just absolutely spectacular
18:18in every way, wasn't it?
18:20Well, I love Musicals as well and How They Dance was absolutely brilliant.
18:25Yeah, absolutely.
18:26Motsi, I love the fact that you got up and you gave Balvinda a hug.
18:31She is safe, she is a semi-finalist.
18:33How proud were you of her?
18:36Well, I mean, the story is that we all can learn from Balvinda is never to give up.
18:42And, I mean, she kept going into the dance floor and to come out like this
18:46with such quality and also with such motivation and elegance
18:50and she didn't want to go home and she was like,
18:54nobody's going to beat me down and she fought for her place in the semi-final.
18:57And, well, these are all that.
18:59Thank you very much.
19:00Um, Shirley, I'd like to ask you about Kaz.
19:05I love her dance.
19:05You gave her a nine and she missed Carlos' hand
19:08but she still carried on spinning totally through that.
19:12Well, I've admired her balance from day one.
19:14I never see this lady off balance at all.
19:17And she missed his hand.
19:18She did a spin anyway and landed spot on her balance
19:22because she's unique in balancing.
19:26It's absolutely fantastic to watch.
19:28Thank you so much.
19:29Great.
19:31You got out a ten paddle again.
19:33I know, I'm disgusted with myself.
19:36I really...
19:37So upset.
19:38I was looking for something, darling.
19:40But you got the ten out for Amber two weeks in a row.
19:43You loved her Charleston.
19:45We didn't know which way you were going because first of all,
19:47you were like, it's too clean.
19:48I'm going to tell you the truth.
19:49I was in two minds because a Charleston can be too clean
19:53and then look clinical rather than improvised.
19:56Every swivel was there.
19:58It was perfect.
19:59And not only that, she played the character so well
20:03throughout the whole thing.
20:05And I was thinking, no, actually,
20:07there was absolutely nothing wrong with that.
20:09That is fantastic.
20:11APPLAUSE
20:12Anton, double dancing next week.
20:15You've been there.
20:16I have.
20:16What is your advice to the Celeste?
20:18Well, for me, when we get to this point,
20:21the game changes.
20:22I always felt it became tactical.
20:25Yeah.
20:25And I looked at the two dancers we had
20:27and my thought was,
20:30now this is sort of hardcore competition stuff.
20:32Yeah.
20:32What is going to win me a dance-off?
20:34Not what's going to make me top of the leaderboard.
20:37It's the dance-off that counts.
20:38So I focused a lot of the time
20:42on one particular dance over the other one
20:44and put all my eggs in that basket.
20:46And it was reasonably successful for me.
20:48That is actually...
20:49That's brilliant advice.
20:50You've never won, no, darling.
20:52You've never won or got a ten ever, but still.
20:54Well, I got ten, thank you.
20:56You got ten.
20:57You got ten.
20:59I gave you ten.
20:59Anton, I gave you your only ten.
21:01You gave me my ten.
21:02I don't even know who that is at the end there.
21:05OK.
21:06Thank you, judges.
21:09Now, with the final fast approach
21:12and the competition ramps up yet again,
21:14did someone say double dancing?
21:16Have a look at this.
21:20I remember how I felt
21:22the first time I darsed in week one.
21:25And for the very first time,
21:27I was trippified.
21:28Then the weeks rolled back.
21:33Movies, icons.
21:35Halloween, guest mentors, Blackpool.
21:38I don't know if I've experienced
21:40a better Blackpool than this.
21:41And creative moments that we'll never forget.
21:43That is epic lockdown in history.
21:46And now, the training room,
21:48it feels like home.
21:51Everyone feels like family.
21:54Just five of us remain.
21:58Next week is the semi-finals.
22:02We danced twice.
22:05Two dance styles and for the first time,
22:08two full new routines.
22:10Double the work,
22:11double the pressure.
22:12No-one wants to fall at the final hurdle.
22:16This is the turning point.
22:26That is next week,
22:28but only two more couples can make it there.
22:30It's time to find out
22:31who is in tonight's dance-off.
22:33Tess.
22:34Thanks, Claude.
22:35This is it.
22:37After 11 weeks,
22:38somebody's journey will end.
22:41Who will take their last dance this evening?
22:44Louis and Katya,
22:46George and Alexis,
22:48and Amber and Nikita.
22:50I'm about to announce
22:51who must go head-to-head
22:52for their place
22:53in the Strictly semi-final.
22:55Good luck to all of you.
22:57I can now reveal
23:03that the first couple
23:04in tonight's dance-off is...
23:07Louis and Katya.
23:17And the couple they'll be up against
23:25in the dance-off is...

24:21these two have been
24:21our number one fans

24:23and that has meant more to me
24:25than anything
24:26in this competition.
24:27So thank you so much,
24:29and may the best man win.
24:30Aww.

24:33This is really tough, isn't it?
24:36Let's get some advice
24:37from the judges.
24:39Shirley, are you shocked
24:40to see Louis and Amber
24:40in this position?
24:43I'm speechless.
24:45I'm not very often speechless,
24:47but I'm absolutely speechless.
24:49First of all,
24:50can I say sportsmanship
24:51is fantastic.
24:52I think I speak for everybody.
24:54We're shocked to see
24:55both of you here,
24:56both couples.
24:58I can only say
24:58when you go out now,
25:00nothing is over
25:00until it's over.
25:01So you have to dig deep,
25:03you have to make no mistakes,
25:05it has to be flawless,
25:06you've got to go out there
25:07and dance for your place
25:09in the semi-final.
25:10But no matter what happens,
25:12I want you to know
25:12that it's been quite the journey
25:14that we are all admirers
25:16of all of you.
25:17Your work ethic,
25:18what you've brought forward
25:19to the show,
25:20has been absolutely
25:21a star.
25:23And exactly like you said,
25:24Amber,
25:25may the best man win
25:26on this occasion.

25:44Thank you, Tess.
25:47George.
25:48Can we...
25:48Should we just take a minute
25:49and can I say...
25:50Please, yeah.
25:51George Clark,
25:51strictly semi-finalist.
25:53Yeah!
25:57Oh, my God.
25:58How proud are you
25:59of yourself?
26:00Um, I am proud of myself.
26:03I feel like,
26:04if you ask my family
26:05even like sort of like
26:05four or five years ago,
26:07do I even speak
26:08at family gatherings?
26:09They'd be like,
26:09no, he just sort of
26:10sits in the corner.
26:11So to have started
26:13making videos,
26:14get a bit more confidence
26:14in me and to sort of
26:16be performing on TV
26:17is wild to me
26:19and I know they'll
26:19sort of attest to that.
26:20So I'm proud of myself
26:22in that respect.
26:22Good.
26:22You should be.
26:23You really should be.
26:25Let's talk about
26:26how supportive
26:27your mum is.

35:52Go
35:52Ah-oh! Ah-oh! Ah-oh!
36:02Ah-oh!
36:17An outstanding dance-off.
36:22Both couples have left everything on the floor,
36:24but only one can make it through.
36:27Judges, it's now over to you.
36:34Based on that dance-off alone,
36:36I'm about to ask each of you the name of the couple
36:38you think deserves to stay and why.
36:41The couple with the most votes will remain in the competition,
36:44meaning the other couple will leave Strictly Come Dancing.
36:47In the event of a tie, our judge with the casting vote,
36:50and that's you this week, Moxie,
36:52will have the final say.
36:55So, Shirley, we will start with you.
36:57Who do you want to send through to the Strictly semi-final and why?
37:02Well, first of all,
37:03both couples upped their number from Saturday night.
37:07It was absolutely fantastic.
37:11It's a very, very difficult decision for me
37:13because I admire both couples,
37:16and there's not really much I can say except I'm heartbroken
37:19for one of these couples that's going to go home.
37:21My vote on this occasion goes to Amber and Nikita.
37:32Anton, who do you think deserves to stay in Strictly and why?
37:37Oh, I think they should both stay in Strictly this year.
37:39They're both absolutely extraordinary.
37:41It is...
37:43We have to judge just this dance
37:46because they've both been extraordinary
37:50through the whole series
37:51with some remarkable performances
37:54and some incredible dances.
37:59The person who goes home is going to be about the best dancer
38:02we've ever had or Strictly come last in not to make the semi-final.
38:06And it's so close.
38:07But I'm going to save...
38:10Amber and Nikita.
38:15That's two votes for Amber and Nikita.
38:19If Craig now votes to save them,
38:21they are indeed through to the semi-final.
38:24So, Craig,
38:26who would you like to see in the ballroom next week and why?
38:29For me, both couples are completely and absolutely
38:31equal and comparable.
38:34And, for me, the better dance of the night,
38:38Amber and Nikita.
38:42Congratulations, Amber and Nikita.
38:45You are semi-finalists that, of course,
38:49means we are saying goodbye to Lewis and Katya.
38:53Please come and join me.
38:55Moxie, did you agree with your fellow judges?
38:59Yes, I would have saved Amber and Nikita.
39:04Lewis and Katya, come on over.
39:10All right.
39:12I'm so sorry to see you.
39:14Not sad.
39:16You have been absolutely amazing.
39:18Everyone in the studio is on their feet.
39:22To salute you.
39:29You have been our highest-scoring male celebrity.
39:33So many records broken.
39:35How much have you enjoyed your experience?
39:37It's been, like, you know, more than I could have ever wished for.
39:42If someone had said that I'd have done 11 weeks on the show at the beginning,
39:45I'd have been over the moon and I'd have snapped the hand off.
39:48So, thank you to the full show, to everyone for having such a space where people can be themselves,
39:56grow, learn, express themselves.
39:58Yeah, it's been incredible and it will be a memory that I'll have for the rest of my life.
40:04And I think it's all down to you.
40:07You've literally given me absolutely everything I could have wished for.
40:12As a friend, as a teacher and, yeah, I couldn't imagine it without anybody else.
40:19So, thank you very much.
40:21Cassia, I can see you're so emotional.
40:25How much have you loved dancing with Lewis?
40:28I think you have created so many moments for Strictly Come Dancing
40:34that will be in history books and you will be remembered not just as one,
40:39if not the best male celebrity we have ever had on the show.
40:44But also, you'll be remembered.
40:47I really hope Lewis Coates will be remembered for an incredible person you are,
40:53that kind and genuine people still exist and what a gentleman you are.
40:58And so humble and so kind and I'm so glad that we had a chance to see you
41:05and showcase your talent and what beautiful person you are to the world.
41:13Lewis, you've had the whole apartment pool behind you, including those 13 coat siblings.
41:21How much has that support meant to you?
41:24It's everything, isn't it? I mean, what is life without people?
41:26And this shows kind of, I've seen how it's brought people together.
41:32Not just in my family, but like, you know, it seems to lift people up.
41:36And it's definitely brought, you know, my family four generations together.
41:40Every Saturday night, my nana daughter is sitting there smiling all the time.
41:44You know, people, young boys who thought that, you know, dancing wasn't accessible for them or whatever,
41:49have started dancing now and send us videos and stuff like that.
41:53And, you know, if you can change one person's life like that, then that's enough.
41:57Well, we know.
41:59We know that you have absolutely loved Dancing On Strictly.
42:03We have loved watching you.
42:06We really have and we are so sorry to see you go.
42:09That's all right. Thank you.
42:10Would you mind taking your place for one final time?
42:13We will miss you.
42:14I'll miss you too.
42:15I'll miss you too.
42:16You'll miss you.
42:17You know everyone, you've been fantastic.
42:19Love you both.
42:25Join Lewis and Thatcher on It Takes Two this week on BBC Two and iPlayer.
42:32And Claude and I will be chatting to Fleur and Jeanette on Tuesday night's show.
42:36We are back next Saturday at 6.35 when all our couples will perform twice for a place in the Strictly final.
42:43But now, with their farewell dance, it is the superb Lewis and Katya.
42:49See ya!
