Ed and Katya will dance a Waltz to “I See It Now” by Tracy Lawrence

Scores:-
East- 4.5
Callum- 3.5
Nicolas- 4.5
Lewis- 3

Total = 15.5/40
East's Comments:- A difficult dance Ed, I have missed you so much since, well, a few weeks ago! Seriously though, I am glad you are here, you actually attempted a proper Waltz, there was plenty of content and steps, admittedly you got the wrong footwork and at the wrong time but your Posture was good, you kept in hold most of the time, it was a jolly good start for your second Strictly journey Ed.

15.5 is one of the lowest scores of the night but Ed is just happy that 3 was the lowest he got!

Next up with a Cha Cha Cha are Jill Halfpenny and Gorka Marquez.

Jill and Gorka will dance a Cha Cha Cha to “Birthday” by Katy Perry

Scores:-
East- 7.5
Callum- 7.5
Nicolas- 8.5
Lewis- 7

Total = 30.5/40

Nicolas's Comments:- That was amazing, Jill, you really were dancing as if it were your birthday! I worry for you with ballroom, but it was still really good. Well done!

Another score over 30, this is quite interesting.

Next up with a Foxtrot are Darren Gough and Karen Clifton.

Darren and Karen dance a Foxtrot to “Radio Gaga” by Queen

Scores:-
East- 6
Callum- 5.5
Nicolas- 3.5
Lewis- 8

Total = 23/40

East's Comments:-
Darren, you had a naturalness about you, it was swarve and sophisticated, unfortunately, the same can't be said for your footwork, every step was on your heel, there were no reverse turns and you messed up the fleckrl but you have not danced since 2005, and I am impressed overall so well done.


Well we all know Darren Gough's time on Strictly caused a divide in opinions, and this set of scores shows it.

Will the judges be more united on Louis Smith and Janette Manrara's Waltz?

Louis and Janette dance a Waltz to “Why Lady Why” by Alabama

Scores:-
East- 7.5
Callum- 6
Nicolas- 7
Lewis- 8

Total = 28.5/40

Lewis's Comments:- I love this partnership I cant wait for the Latin*

The judges are more or less in agreement and 28.5 places Louis and Janette in the middle of the leaderboard.

How will Claudia Fragapane and AJ Pritchard do in their Cha Cha Cha?

Claudia and AJ dance a Cha Cha Cha to “Don't Cha” by The Pussycat Dolls

Scores:-
East- 8
Callum- 7.5
Nicolas- 7.5
Lewis- 7

Total = 30/40

Nicolas's Comments:- Claudia, you are such a pocket rocket, so I was a little disappointed to see you dance a Cha Cha to a relatively slow song**Then again, you performed the hell outta it, so I want you to do a super fast dance next!

A good set of scores there for Claudia and AJ. It does however place them mid leaderboard but that doesn't really matter because eliminations don't start until Week 2.

Our penultimate couple tonight are Danny Mac and Oti Mabuse who will dance a Salsa.

Danny and Oti Salsa to “Ain't It Funny” by Jennifer Lopez

Scores:-
East- 8.5
Callum- 7
Nicolas- 8.5
Lewis- 7

Total = 31/40

Callum's Comments:- Yes, this is what I'm looking for in a Week 1 Salsa. Fluidity with a Latin feel. You two have the most magical of partnerships that is blossomed into almost any performance you do. Impressive stuff.

A mixed set of scores there for Danny and Oti but a good set of scores none the less.

Our Final Couple tonight will be Alesha Dixon and Neil Jones who will dance a Foxtrot.

May I remind the judges again:-

PLEASE JUDGE BASED ON THE DANCING, NOT ON THE CONTESTANTS, AS I HAVE SEEN QUITE A FEW MARKS FOR WEEK 2, THAT DON'T QUITE MAKE SENSE, ESPECIALLY IN RELATION TO SCORES THEY GOT ON STRICTLY.

May I judge Week 5? I was never a huge Disney fan as a child (well, or an adult), so the songs are sometimes completely new to me.
