Joanna and Maciej scored a total of 17 points.
Ireland AM presenter Elaine Crowley and Denys Samson performed an energetic Jive to You Can't Stop the Beat from Hairspray.
Brian said: That was really interesting for me to watch. After the catastrophe that was last week I could see your confidence coming back step by step. More bounce needed but you bounced back.
