Don't think I have forgotten the Xmas Special.

If Izzie doesn't send her scores and comments in BY THURSDAY AT 8PM, I WILL JUDGE.

It is looking likely that I'm going to be judging in place of Izzie, but she still has 20 minutes.

Hillary and Pasha Quickstep to “Frosty The Snowman” by Michael Buble feat. The Puppini Sisters

Scores:-
John- 7
Julie- 10
Ethan- 9
East- 9

Total = 35/40

Ethan's Comments:- I never thought I’d be sat here saying Hillary Clinton is fast. There might be Frosty the Snowman but there’s no frosty knickers as far as I can see (no that’s not an invitation to show me, this is a family show, no-one wants to see it Pasha). Your footwork was fantastic, your chasses were sharp, your timing was tremendous. I’ve always thought there was something slightly terrifying about an older woman with lots of stamina. Hillary I’m slightly terrified of you.

Julie's Comments:- Well, it's Christmas, innit! Keep this as a xmas pressie - *hand her 10 paddle*


A 35/40? For Hillary?! Hillary jokes that if you added all of her ordinary week scores together that we'd get to 35!

Next up are Liam Payne and Chloe Hewitt who will dance a Paso Doble

Liam and Chloe dance a Paso Doble to “Christmas Tree” by Lady Gaga feat. Space Cowboy

Scores:-
John- 7
Julie- 6
Ethan- 8
East- 9

Total = 30/40
Julie's Comments:- It was okay, just not very Christmassy.

Ethan's Comments:-
Ok so you're from One Direction and you're doing a paso, that doesn't quite work for me Liam. I mean you're not exactly known for your masculinity and aggression are you? Well you are now, the shaping was great and I liked the knee walks (good to see you taking inspiration from Oksana's choreography there Chloe), you really did take the bull by the horns. Great performance.


A mixture of scores there from our judges, will they be more united when Karen Barber and Kevin Clifton dance a Foxtrot?

Karen and Kevin Foxtrot to “Let It Snow” by Dean Martin

Scores:-
John- 7
Julie- 7
Ethan- 10
East- 8

Total = 32/40

East's Comments:- That was very good Karen, it was gentle and romantic and whist there is a lot more that you could do to perfect this dance, it is Christmas and I enjoyed it, well done.

Ethan's Comments:- If there’s one thing you ought to know how to do Karen it’s glide around holding on to a partner in icy conditions. And I can only say you’ve disappointed me. I can’t think of anything bad to say at all, except for things about your dancing partner that are sadly irrelevant. It was smooth, it was graceful and it was actually quite romantic. Yes we might as well let it snow, you two looked more than ready to warm each other up when you got home.

Karen and Kevin are happy with their scores especially as it is about 9 or 10 points higher than they ever got on the normal show!

Next up, with a Viennese Waltz are Katy Perry and Aljaz Skorjanec.

Katy and Aljaz will dance a Viennese Waltz to “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)” by John Lennon and Yoko Ohno

Scores:-
John- 8
Julie- 10
Ethan- 9
East- 10

Total = 37/40

East's Comments:- What a treat, we get to witness that showstopper of a Viennese Waltz, I loved all the finishing touches you did to this dance, your footwork was crisper than a Frost on Christmas morning but your top line was as delicate and fluffy as snow. FAB-U-LOUS!

Ethan's Comments:- The Viennese Waltz is supposed to be beautiful, graceful, classy, smooth… all qualities you possess in spades Katy. Not that I could see much of any of that in this performance. The way you lurched into those fleckerls made me think you’d been drinking too much eggnog. But you know what? I loved it. This isn’t a song for being restrained, it’s a song of celebration and happiness and you made it beautiful. Wherever you got that eggnog, I want to go there too.

37 is the highest score so far!

How will Pksparkxx Dathottness and Natalie Lowe do in the Cha Cha Cha?

Pksparkxx and Natalie Cha Cha Cha to “Mary's Boy Child/ Oh My Lord” by Boney M

Scores:-
John- 8
Julie- 9
Ethan- 9
East- 8

Total = 34/40

John's Comments:- What a way to kick off the show more fun and enjoyment than pulling a Christmas cracker, just watch the stumble you looked as if you may have had a bit too much mulled wine towards the end otherwise anyone who didn’t like that is crackers!

Julie's Comments:-
You may not be the best dancer ever, but it is so entertaining!


Pksparkxx and Natalie are delighted with their scores. Will Our final Couple, with a Jive, Tom Daley and Oti Mabuse be equally as happy with their scores?
