Dancing on Wheels: Semi Final!

Pep talk - a warm tribute to Harry the morning after; Mark and Di, as you were - James and Caroline, work harder!

Harry and Michelle have a samba and Harry learns to shimmy! But he's not so keen on the burnt orange top - but agrees it's better than what they've given James! They've nothing to lose so very positive, we don't see an awful lot of the routine except the great shimmies! Slight slip from Michelle, not great technique but they make up for it in chemistry.

Di and Mark with a slow waltz and there's adrenalin overload for Mark as tiredness sets in - but it's all forgotten at the tea dance, where their routine is roundly applauded, and in the show itself it's beautiful, very touching, Mark dancing the best I've seen him and a terrific trick ending.

James and Caroline have salsa ... and a gorgeous puppy! Until he did whoopsies on the dance floor, into the play pen with you! Caroline forgets the routine at the salsa club but it's all about getting the feel - which they do! Their routine is a real WOW, timing great, full of tricks, brilliant. Even with James in a Bruno cast off!

They're still having a dance off - the one couple straight through is James and Caroline. And I don't see how they could possibly let Di and Mark go - they don't, it's unanimous, although everyone is so sad to say farewell to Harry and Michelle. At least we get to see more of the samba.

Final next week, with the big prize up for grabs!

  2. The benefits of not having a life and only watching reality shows you see! One day I will watch a drama series again!
