Strictly Quarter Finals week - a special Movie-themed week.  I can't believe there's only two programmes left! 

Tess was wearing a black trouser suit and looked very glamorous.  The pro dancers opened the show with a great Saturday Night At The Movies routine.

Robbie & Ola did a quick step to music from Reservoir Dogs, dressed in matching skinny black suits.  Excellent footwork, they were motoring around the dancefloor, I loved it.  Mixed comments from the judges. (score 30)

Harry & Aliona did a rumba to Everything I Do by Bryan Adams from the Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves movie.  Brilliant!  Best male celebrity rumba ever!  Very natural and he was leading her properly.  (score 36)

Alex & James did an american smooth to Roy Orbison's Pretty Woman from the film of the same name.  It was gorgeous, very elegant with some great lifts.  But poor Alex caught her heel in her hem AGAIN!  Made no difference though, she did really well. (score 34)

Holly & Artem did a paso doble to music from Zorro - proper paso music!  It was superb, lots of flamenco and skirt swirling.  Holly's arms & hands were just excellent and Artem did some great knee spins.  She really kicked it up a notch, first time I've leapt up from the sofa and punched the air!  lol   I was worried that there wasn't much in hold but the judges loved it too. (score 38)

Jason & Kristina also did an American smooth to Singing In The Rain.  It was very good, full of charm with some excellent lifts.  (score 37)

Chelsee & Pasha did a jive to The Monkees I'm a Believer from the Shrek movie.  Pasha looked quite gruesome, covered in green makeup with sticky out ears.  Chelsee, however, looked a proper princess.  Very clean, sharp kicks 'n' flicks, she was singing along, thoroughly enjoying herself.  It was great. (score 39)

Leaderboard
Chelsee and Pasha – 39
Holly and Artem – 38
Jason and Kristina – 37
Harry and Aliona – 36
Alex and James – 34
Robbie and Ola – 30
Bottom two this week were Robbie & Ola (expected) and Jason & Kristina (bit of a shock).  Robbie & Ola were the ones to go. 

Semi-finals next week, two dances each AND two couples to be eliminated!  Can't wait!
