🌟 Storm Arwen hit the Strictly ballroom, with dark clouds descending over the actress’s paso doble. An ominous sign? Ayling-Elis struggled to find the moody, controlling character. The end result was a well-delivered number though lacking some of the required power and attack.
🕺Walker's rumba split the judges. Ballas said Walker's hip action was “subtle”. Erivo praised Walker for his improved lines, while Craig said he didn’t have any hip action from the actual steps of the rumba, he just added a few wiggles

✨ Odudu threw herself into an incredibly difficult commercial jazz Couple’s Choice routine. Slick, stylised and funky, it was all about the small details. Given the raves, and the complexity, Odudu seemed undermarked.

🕺This was by far Stephenson's most controlled dance and, for once, there were no crazy costumes or distractions. Perhaps that helped him focus on the fundamentals. But did it really warrant such judging hysteria?
💃 She scored a perfect 40 last week, but the notoriously tricky Latin dance saw Ramsay slide back down the leaderboard. She put in a good effort, working her rainbow fringe, but it lacked technical finesse in places and also needed more of a sense of abandon.
✨ A strong performance from Whaite. Dancing the Argentine tango, it was a sizzling routine. Du Beke thought the tango was as good as their piratical paso doble, Erivo said she was crazy for it, and Ballas stole Revel Horwood’s line: “Fab-u-lous!”.
