Australian champion Thommy disappointed at the Nationals but managed to qualify for the Worlds. It’s his first time. Irish champion Richard is a natural born dancer but through injury and loss of focus has not done well in the last few years. Now they are both on the comeback trail. Thommy and his mum Beth have travelled together from Melbourne and Thommy has done his best to get over jet lag and nerves. On the morning of the competition Thommy has a personality change and may be finally finding his ‘killer instinct’. Richard arrives with his family in tow and seems relaxed. After both boys dance their first dance they are surrounded by their fan clubs of girls and both seems happy with their performance. Thommy is aiming low since he’s at his first World championships but Richard wants to get back up on the podium. All does not go well in the next dance and Richard looks like he may throw in the towel. For Thommy the pressure is on but by the end of the night, both boys are in for a surprise.
