1) Siobhan Marshall and Charlie Billington
They cha-cha-ed to Billy Joel's
Uptown Girl
with the actress showing not only has she mastered the footwork, she's already got the unshakeable smile of a ballroom pro.
Score: 21
2) Jay Jay Harvey and Enrique Johns
They jived to Christina Aguilera's Candyman while wearing WWII US Army costumes. Though maybe they should have gone for air force, as the routine included repeated inspections of each other's undercarriage.
Score: 20
3rd equal) Chrystal Chenery and and Jonny Williams
Jived to Taylor's Swift's Shake It Off which was the best song selection of the night with its subtle reference to Chrystal's previous reality show incarnation as the one-we-loved-to-hate on The Bachelor. Williams has been a finalist in DWTS two times before. His success in this series may depend on his partner's popularity with the public. Her Bachelor rivals were there in support/see her fall flat on her face.
Score: 19
3rd equal) Colin Mathura-Jeffree and Kristie Williams
The model-telly personality and partner jived to Wham's Wake Me Up Before you Go-Go with Colin channelling mid-period George Michael. "Colin, that's the first time I've seen you pick up a woman, " quipped judge Candy Lane.
Score: 19
5) Ben Barrington and Krystal Stuart
Foxtrotted to
Fever
. The former
Almighty Johnsons
star is already looking a sturdier partner for Stuart than her past season
DWTS
partners, Rodney Hide and John Rowles.
Score: 18
6) Teuila Blakely and Scott Cole
Opened the show jiving to
Happy
in a routine which included two tricky moves - firstly the polyrhythmic bum solo (successful) then a tricky spin lift (less so).
Score: 17
7) Maz Quinn and Caryn Lim
Champ surfer and partner foxtrotted to
Wade in the Water
in a routine marked by a couple of aerial 360s.
Score: 15
8). Shane Cameron and Nerida Cortese
The boxer and partner cha-cha-ed to U2's When Love Comes to Town with Cameron bringing out the big guns to launch Nerida into low orbit. She floated like a butterfly back to earth.
Score: 13
9). Simon Barnett and Vanessa Cole
Cha-cha-ed to Robbie Williams' Rock DJ. Barnett's facial expressions found a fascinating rhythm of their own throughout.
Score: 12
10) Pam Corkery and Matt Tatton-Brown
Achieved lift-off as they foxtrotted to Hey, Big Spender. But they may have already cashed in their future chances.
Score: 11
