Overview

• Speaking on It Takes Two, Jones said judges failed to acknowledge the technical content Lewis Cope delivered in their Week Two routine.
• She cited pivots, naturals, reverses and a solo fleckerl as evidence that he executed core Viennese Waltz elements after hours of practice.
• Head judge Shirley Ballas called the dance too aggressive, while Anton Du Beke asked for more refinement and Craig Revel Horwood noted uneven naturals and reverses.
• The pair scored 27 for the Viennese Waltz and finished second on the leaderboard in Week Two.
• They will perform a Paso Doble inspired by Zorro for Movie Week, with Cope saying early rehearsals were challenging but improving.
