Judge Alesha: Really nice. For me you’re still a little lukewarm but the acting and role playing was well done
Judge Bruno: You go well with rubber. The most focused performance to date.
Judge Craig: The gothic version of Olivia Newton John from Grease which I found bizarre. You need to work on your connection through your solar plexus. I was actually a little bit bored.
Head judge Len: The lifts were excellent. The steps were clear and precise. I can see the dancer emerging, that’s your best dance to date.

Judge Alesha: You really threw yourself into that. You played it just right.
Judge Bruno: Great to see you back. At times you needed slightly more energy.
Judge Craig: I loved the double progressive cartwheel section. Very character-driven. Your footwork was a little bit on the sloppy side but altogether fantastic.
Head judge Len: You were together. It had a sweetness to it. I agree with Craig it could have been stronger through the feet. It was entertaining and I enjoyed watching it.
Monday’s It Takes Two showed Jared and Tina’s Rumba from their training sessions last week. The episode is on the BBC site but it is only available for those living in the UK area. Here’s hoping we can watch it soon!
The Strictly Come Dancing site posted some exclusive interviews with the dancers a few days ago. I was hoping they’d get uploaded somewhere else so I waited to post it but it doesn’t look like they will so unfortunately I can’t tell you anything that’s mentioned! If you live in the UK area you’ll be able to watch it. Click the picture below to be taken to the interview since I can’t even embed it.
We caught up with Strictly Come Dancing performer, Jared Murillo to ask him a few probing questions about starring on the show. How does he cope with the nerves? What is his favourite dance to perform? Watch the video to find out more about your favourite pro dancer.
