“This dance is set in an abandoned swimming pool”: words you can only hear on Strictly.

Can Stephenson find more range, or is every number going to feel like the same overeager, street-dancing Duracell Bunny? Swim while you’re winning But, per Du Beke, his mile-a-minute dance was “a bit brisk for me, dear”, with big steps that limited the crucial hip action - and not for the first time. The judges praised his self-belief and commitment, though were less convinced by the actual Latin dance.Įqually enthusiastic was Rhys Stephenson as a salsa-ing popcorn seller. While Wise refrained from doing the actual Macarena in his routine, Walker chucked in plenty of classic MC Hammer moves, albeit in awkward dad-dancing fashion. That inspired the theme for their cha cha cha, although I don’t know how many 16-year-olds wore mud-coloured waistcoats, clown shirts and shiny pink bow ties that’s surely more off-putting than any movement anxiety. Stop! Walker timeĭan Walker confronted his adolescent trauma by heading back to school alas, he was too shy to dance to U Can’t Touch This at his teenage discos. Likely more in danger is Judi Love, whose emotional waltz, dedicated to her late parents, won praise for its heartfelt sentiment, but low scores for execution. But this is surely just a dip for the talented pair. The former caused some confusion with a more free-flowing American smooth, which Revel Horwood likened to a night spent clubbing in Heaven, while Odudu came unstuck with the tricky samba. Scoring an impressive four 9s, Davies sailed past former pack leaders John Whaite and AJ Odudu. (One imagines there were other reasons too…)

It even prompted Revel Horwood to quip that he now understood why former Strictly pro Janette Manrara had married him. Ballroom is definitely her strength: other than her head placement, the judges were in raptures over her technique, as well as partner Aljaz Skorjanek’s teaching and choreography. Sara Davies was back in Dragon mode for a powerful tango, which began in moody black and white. We often see this tougher judging scrutiny after a theme week. But technically there’s lots to work on still like Ayling-Ellis, his scores were more conservative. Meanwhile, Tom Fletcher had his first foray into ballroom, and the glamorous Fred and Ginger styling, along with Fly Me to the Moon, helped create an old-school ambience.

It was a trying week for Ayling-Ellis after her hearing aid broke, and this wasn’t a perfect number – a few nerves, a few mistakes, slightly timid – but a definite improvement in her Latin, although a drop in scores from her Movie Week foxtrot. Although it was her incredible purple (rain) fringed trousers that stole the show, and they got quite a workout thanks to some cheeky hip action. “Very literal” said Rose Ayling-Ellis of her headwear for this week’s cha cha cha set to Prince’s Raspberry Beret. Or will the public disagree with the judges? Join us for the results show on Sunday night on BBC One at 7:10pm to find out. He’s now in danger of landing in the dreaded dance-off, as is Judi Love after a sincere but limited waltz.

The former committed to his MC Hammer cha cha cha, while Wise began his Macarena samba with several errors and never really recovered. In the battle of the 90s nostalgia dances, Dan Walker won out over Greg Wise. Perhaps everyone was also feeling the loss of Robert Webb, who left the show for health reasons, and Ugo Monye, taking a week off because of a back injury. Bravo! But it was a more muted show otherwise, with none of last week’s euphoric 10s, and the judges cracking the whip when it came to technique. With a score of 36, Sara Davies became the belle of the ballroom, and won praise for being such a good student. She was dead last in Week 1, but the entrepreneur’s unbeatable work ethic resulted in a triumphant tango on Saturday night.
