It Takes Two – Monday 25th October
On tonight’s episode: Peter & Erin; Alisha Dixon; Ann & Anton; Felicity & Vincent.
The show starts with Ola Jordan taking a video camera round behind the scenes and chatting the the dancers and celebs. We see James jokingly telling Ola about what it’s like to still be in the competition. Len and James share a kiss (so that Len can see if it ‘prickles’ when you kiss a man with a beard).
Then we’re treated to another brief recap of some of the highlights from Saturday before it’s time to talk to Peter & Erin.
Peter feels like he let himself down, but also that Charleston wasn’t really his dance. Erin points out that Charleston was around week 11 last year, not week 4, and considering there’s acting as well as dancing involved that does make it much more difficult.
Peter’s highlights do unfortunately include his Salsa, but there’s a nice outfit of Erin’s in the training vid 😉
Next up a VT showing all the animal references the judges made on Saturday, leading up to Alisha being on the show.
I understand that she can relate directly to the celebs, having been through it herself, but she’s still just not a viable judge for me. However Emma and I both agree that she is improving…though I do wonder how much of her comments are scripted???
It is revealed that Patsy will be doing the Jive next week, given how soon she ran out of puff with the Charleston she does need to work on her stamina.
Our next couple are Ann & Anton,
Ann reveals she is afraid of heights but actually enjoyed the wire work by the time she was landing. Anton reveals that he originally suggested the idea as a joke! Their next dance will be the Paso Doble, I’m seeing shades of John Sargeant already…
Now onto Felicity & Vincent,
Apparently the kiss was Vincent’s idea (surprise, surprise) and they weren’t sure if it was going to be allowed.
A VT on Vincent’s Magic Eyebrow (lots of twitching at camera).
Felicity & Vincent will have Viennese Waltz at the weekend, choreography-wise it will be a lot simpler but the constant rotation at speed makes it such a hard dance.
That’s our lot for today.
