Let's Dance for Sport Relief

Kicking off three weeks of semi-finals, six acts perform with one to go through on the public vote and one put through by the judges, those dance experts tonight consist of Jason Manford, complete with dancing cliches, Kimberley Walsh and Frank Skinner.

First out is Rufus Hound as Cheryl Cole doing Fight for This Love and, as Martin Offiah said, it's wrong but so right - he was fantastic, had her moves and the attitude spot on, brilliant start, and it'll be hard to top. Frank quips it'd make a good advert for the Sally Army!

The Olympians (Mark Foster - he's really got the dance bug hasn't he? Jamie Baulch, Leon Taylor, Iwan Thomas, Dalton Grant and Heather Fell) do Vogue by Madonna and they're very slick, nice touch with the sporting references at the end.

Katy Brand performs Beyonce's Single Ladies and nails it totally! I hated this song when it first came out, but since seeing the baby dancing on Youtube, and Glee, it now just brings a smile to my face. Between Katy and Rufus so far!

Snooker v Darts -Dennis Taylor, Willie Thorne, Bobby George and Tony O'Shea team up for Run DMC's Walk This Way and have a ball! Full of energy; Frank quips that in a show full of people dressing up, Bobby has actually dressed down!

The Newsreaders -what is it with this lot and dancing, any excuse! Louise, Ellie and Matt with a Flavia choreographed hot Tango to Kiss of Fire and they're very, very good! Great bum shake by Matt and all in the character, well done!

Casualty and Holby together for Jai Ho and this lot throw themselves into it, thoroughly enjoyable, fun routine, the boys particularly look like they could happily carry on all night.

The results are in and, brilliant though they all were, it's Rufus straight through, with Katy joining him courtesy of the judges, taking the decision over the Casualty and Holby team.

Steve Jones and our Claudia keep them all in check, what treats do they have for us next week?

  1. Rufus was definitely the routine of the night, though respect to Katy Brand for even attempting 'Single Ladies' - tough one that.

    Could not stop laughing at Rufus, so he was my winner and the recipient of my vote for this show :o)

    Bring on more laughter next week! :o)
