This week on It Takes Two, we have learnt...

- Peter thinks that you have to accept when your time is up and go gracefully. It’s just a shame that the judges couldn’t accept his time was actually up a week earlier.
- Janette seems to be more upset by leaving than Peter is.

- Bruno has a Dancing With The Stars dressing gown in his dressing room.

- This is the first series in Strictly history where there has only been one man left at the top six.
- Zoe thinks it's outrageous that Anita and Gleb haven't topped the leaderboard yet.

- Jay and Aliona didn’t finish their tango until Thursday evening. AND BOY WERE THEIR ARMS TIRED etc.
- Jay's mum watched the show in the pub.

- Aliona doesn’t focus on the scores and prefers to listen to the judges’ specific comments.

- Jay would like to do a quickstepathon every week.

- According to Jay, Aliona is driven only by results and he cries weekly. Only weekly?
- Aliona disagrees with the idea that rumba is hard - she thinks it's actually pretty easy because it has fewer steps than the rest of the dances.
- Karen has received more sevens from Len than Kevin has, but only because "he always gets nines".
- Karen thinks the song 'Monster Mash' is about potatoes.
- Musicals week is Christmas for dancers.

- Karen Hardy wants to start seeing numbers that are shocking and powerful. 57?

- Crossing your ankles is very feminine.

- Aljaž signed himself up for dance school at the age of five without telling his parents, the REBEL.

- Giovanni only started learning English in August.

- Aljaž’s pet name for Janette translates as “little pumpkin”.

- Giovanni has never been in love and refers to himself as a “single lady”.

- Aljaž and Giovanni both want two kids, but Aljaž hasn’t actually discussed this with Janette yet.

- Kevin likes Hawaiian pizza. Controversial.

- Robin has been freed up from alphabet duties (did he ever get to Z in the end, I can’t remember?) and is now interviewing the pros about choreography.

- Gleb likes to choreograph the whole routine before he arrives to teach it to Anita on Monday, but quite often changes things along the way.

- Gleb is inspired by Fred Astaire. The Fred Special was a particular influence.

- Kellie punched Kevin in the face around 15 times during training for their salsa. Unintentionally, we hope.

- Nancy from Oliver! is apparently an “East End pub landlady”, because this is still a family show.

- Danny Dyer has started calling Kellie “the dance-off queen”, and I think Jamelia needs to know about this.

- Kevin is quite good at translating Cockney rhyming slang.
- Ian Waite twirling Aljaž around might just be the campest thing you’ve ever seen.

- Zoe has never seen the musical Once and neither has Ian.
- Kellie's training skirt appears to have lights inside.
- Natalie once wore a similar skirt when she and Ian toured.
- Gleb has taken to putting his hair in a topknot for training.
- Ian Waite thinks Kellie has the lowest overall score; she actually has the fourth, above Anita and Katie.  The top three are Helen, Jay and Georgia.

- Noooooo Robin’s A to Z is still happening :(

- In future Helen and Aljaž will not be using stairs in their routines, they’ll have escalators instead.

- Helen was inspired to become an actress after going to see Les Misérables with her family at the age of 15.

- Helen isn’t quite sure how you say “paso doble” because all the judges say it differently.

- Darren Bennett is one of the judges on Dancing With The Stars in Lebanon.

- The whole show is in Arabic and he doesn’t speak any Arabic, but he probably still makes more sense than Bruno.
- Ian thinks he looks like Julian Clary in some of the ITT promo clips.

- There is no double bounce in the samba. OR IS THERE? We may never know.

- Aljaž and Ian haven’t sorted out their first dances for their weddings yet, but Aljaž and Janette will be dancing to the song that was playing when he proposed: ‘You And I’ by Michael Bublé.

- Gleb has had an allergic reaction to something and his beautiful face is all swollen. Noooooo.

- Anita’s accepting no responsibility for the illegal lift in her rumba because she just does what she’s told.
- Anita lives in a positive bubble.

- Gleb has been stretching every day.

- Vicky Gill and team won an RTS award for best costumes this week.
- Kevin likes to think about the story to a song before he starts his choreography.

- Kevin really enjoys choreographing paso dobles. (This isn’t really a revelation, but Robin’s Routine Inspection goes on for ages and we had to get something useful out of it.)
- Giovanni is going to be made up as the Beast.  Rawrr etc.  (Or not).

- The subtext of dancing to ‘Maybe This Time’ is not lost on Anton.
- Kate Garraway used to hate Fridays because Anton always lied to her that she was doing well and then she'd see everyone else dance and know the truth.  MORE BBC LIES CALL OFCOM.

- Everyone this year is REALLY SUPPORTIVE. Like Anita had to tell Jay his rumba was amazing when she saw it for the first time this week.

- Jay’s rumba was one of the quickest dances to learn so far this series. Which is probably because it’s a blokerumba and he won’t have to do much.

- Anita will be upside down for a lot of her Argentine tango.
- Future contestant Ronan Keating is coming to watch on Saturday.

- Vernon Kay thinks Jay could be really good if he gets into character more; Sarah Hadland and The Prenj aren’t so sure.

- Vernon Kay memorised some stats before he went on the Friday panel.

- Sarah Hadland can’t understand why Kellie has been in the dance-off twice.

- Katie walked backwards into a wall during training this week.

- Craig is allergic to beard glue.

- The Prenj has seen Craig in his falsies and a corset.

- Craig didn’t like Helen’s charleston and doesn’t want to see it ever again.

- Craig took up dancing because he was quite a “porky” child, and he thought he was going to a Jane Fonda workout class but he was duped into joining a dance class instead.

- In Blackpool Craig considered giving Anita a 10 for her paso, but decided not to because her shoulders were a bit too raised and her feet weren’t quite technically right.
- Craig loved Georgia's BLACKPOOL dress and wanted to wear it.
- Ian Waite pronounces Erin's name as Aaron Boag.
- Ian Waite actually looks much more attractive these days than when he danced with Zoe.
- Future winner La Prenj is going to 'drag it up' when playing Miss Hannigan.
- The Friday panel are right bitchy gossips, and this is glorious.

- Vernon Kay thinks Kellie is going home this weekend,The Prenj thinks Anita, Sarah Hadland thinks maybe Katie and Anton.

- Sarah Hadland wants Anita or Jay to win, but mostly Anita, Vernon wants Georgia or Anita to win, and The Prenj wants Georgia or Jay to win.

- Georgia is quite tired now, actually.

- Hot Greg The Floor Manager was born on Christmas Day and his nickname is Frosty The Snowman.
