They are the eighth couple to be eliminated from the Â鶹Éç One show. The judges said:
Ìý
Len: "I'll tell you this – it's the hardest of all the Latin dances. The natural role was very good. I'm telling you this, it was a blooming good job I was expecting the worst, I was pleasantly surprised."
Ìý
Arlene: "You know Claire you are so likeable you make me smile. But it was a Samba from Southsea rather than Sao Paolo it was a nightclub deal – but I did smile."
Ìý
Craig: "I think it was clumsy, limp, lacklustre and on occasion embarrassing."
Ìý
Bruno: "One of most entertaining dances you've done. You were having fun and it made me laugh."
Ìý
Claire said: "I'd like to thank Brendan for at least attempting to teach me to dance."

All the contestants performed a dance they haven't done before, as well as a group show dance with a Bond theme. Top scorers this week with the judges were Mark Ramprakash and Karen Hardy with the Viennese Waltz scoring 36 out of 40.

There are now five couples left in the competition. Next week for the first time all couples will be performing two dances they haven't done before.
