BBC Strictly - Week 5 - Scores after the Judges Vote

The BBC's Strictly Come Dancing competition completes its fifth week. Here are the provisional scores as the men and women compete for the first time in the same competition for survival.

Lisa Snowdon & Brendon 35
Tom Chambers & Camilla 35
Cherie Lunghi & James 34
Austin Healey & Erin 32
Rachel Stevens & Vincent 30
Jodie Kidd & Ian 30
Christina Bleakley & Matthew 30
Don Warrington & Lelia 25
Heather Small & Brian 23
Mark Foster & Hayley 17
Andrew Castle & Ola 17
John Sergeant & Kristina 16

As I expected, Lisa Snowdon improved yet again. This time she finished with an impressive 35 points and shared top place in the table with Tom Chambers. Rachel Stevens was a bit down on other weeks and shares 30 points with both Jodie and Christina from The One Show. All should be safe come Sunday.

Despite by far being the most entertaining, John Sergeant, finishes last for the first time. Quite cheekily afterwards, he quipped, the Public would keep him in, they know what they have to do. Head Judge, Len Goodman, said if he was a member of the public, John would get his vote. That is good enough for me.

The voting fan bases of both Mark Foster and Andrew Castle are probably not that great, so it looks as if they will find themselves in the dance-off when the Viewers vote is added.
