Me neither, I did rush them a bit because I was away over the weekend and knew I wouldn't have had a chance to do it then

Well seen as though I haven't received all the songs yet you are welcome to change Niamh? Same with you Alf?

Oh OK, I'll have another look today but I may just wing it this round and hope for the best

Do I have time to change one of mine? I've chosen something else.

This will be the quarter final by the way. Next week is the semi final. The final will be a week before Christmas. Along with 2 of your best dances you will also be performing your showdance and of course a dance to a Christmas number if you make it all the way to the final 4!

Same..musicals was an absolute joy to judge.

[Time to Sleigh]

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen. Please take your seats and have your popcorn ready as the show is about to begin. The magnificent seven are taking on the glitz and glamour of stage and screen in our movies and musicals extravaganza! It's time to dance!

[Time to Sleigh]

Act 1 is our Movies Round

[Time to Sleigh]

1. First up is Lewis and Amy with a Jive to Johnny be Goode from Back to the future

Youtube video

Toy Soldier: I was smiling from the first step, what a classic and perfect for the dance. A strong opening to the show... I doubt this is going to be topped

Barry: I’m guessing you don’t watch strictly but we just had this this year to a jive on movie week. It’s predictable too, but it was good

Parmnion: Surely the original has been in a film, and would have been better than this. It was a good move though, but the cover version left me a bit flat.

Toy Soldier:10!
Barry:7
Parmnion:8

Score:25

[Time to Sleigh]

2. Jake and Katya with a Charleston to Pink Elephants from Dumbo

Toy Soldier: I weirdly enjoyed it and have to give points for the unusual choice - however I think the temp was a little bit slow for the dance

Barry: Maybe it’s me but I didn’t get the Charleston from this song. I liked the song though but I don’t know

Parmnion: I dont know why I liked this, but I did. Not sure about the speed of it, but it was fun and enjoyable

Toy Soldier:7
Barry:7
Parmnion:9

Score:23

[Time to Sleigh]

3. Alf and Karen Quickstep to Hanky Panky from Dick Tracy

Youtube video

Toy Soldier: Another good effort but I'm not 100% sure of the ong choice in all honesty. Lively but not a perfect fit. I found myself tuning out towards the end in all honesty.

Barry: This was pretty good and you did so well too

Parmnion: Oh you tease, that was amazing.

Toy Soldier:7
Barry:8
Parmnion:10!

Score:25

[Time to Sleigh]

4. Kazanne and Johannes with a Tango to Be this Alive from Shall we Dance?

Youtube video

Toy Soldier: Well it was certainly a Tango - very steamy! The film looks absolutely terrible but I can't deduct points for that! However I had a perfect choice in mind for this dance which would easily have been a perfect 10...so I will have to score it lower

Barry: It worked well with your dance and I think you did it justice

Parmnion: Very good

Toy Soldier:9
Barry:9
Parmnion:9

Score:27
