How Tumble works

How the Show Works

Tumble is a new six week elimination contest for BBC1 in which 10 brave celebrities will learn and perform gymnastic and aerial disciplines, for the chance to win the coveted title of Tumble Champion 2014.

Each celebrity has been paired with a professional performer of the opposite sex. Each pairing has its own British Gymnastics approved coach (minimum level 3).

Celebrities will be asked to take part in disciplines and to perform to music and themes as chosen by production.

At the end of Show 6, the winner will be announced.

Show One

In Show 1 (Saturday 9th August 2014) all 10 celebrities will perform 1 of 2 possible disciplines – Acrobatic Floor or Aerial Hoop. They will receive comments and scores from the judges (see judging section below.) The scores from each judge will be added to create the overall score for each celebrity. No-one is eliminated at the end of this show.

Show Two

In Show 2, (Saturday 16th August ) all 10 celebrities will perform whichever discipline they did not perform in Show 1 and once again receive comments and scores from the judges as in show 1 above.

The scores received by each celebrity in show 1 and show 2 will be compared to establish their Personal Best- which will be the higher of the two scores. The Personal Best will then be used as their score for the end of show 2 leaderboard.

The two celebrities with the lowest scores on the leaderboard at the end of show 2 are the “bottom two”. They must now face ‘The Vault’ (see elimination section below). One celebrity will be eliminated after the vault performance.

Judging

There are four members of the judging panel, chosen for their expertise in their related gymnastic and aerial fields; Nadia Comaneci (Head Judge), Craig Heap, Louis Smith, Sebastien Stella.

After each celebrity has completed their discipline, the judges will give their expert opinions. Celebrities will be judged on both their technique in that particular discipline and their performance.

Celebrities will then receive a score out of 10 from each judge, giving them an overall score out of 40. The scores increase in 0.5 points.

There is no audience voting until Show 5.

Ties

In the event of a tie in personal best score between three or more celebrities at the bottom of the show 2 leaderboard, we will use the total combined score from show 1 and 2 for each of the tied contestants. The two celebrities with the lowest combined score will be in the “Bottom Two”

In the unlikely event that there is still a tie when the combined scores are added up then we will use the total score across both disciplines awarded by Nadia Comaneci for the tied celebrities and the two celebrities at that stage with the lowest combined score will face ‘The Vault’.

If there is still a tie then Head Judge Nadia Comaneci will decide which of the tied celebrities at the bottom of the table will face ‘The Vault’.

Elimination

As explained above, there will be no elimination at the end of Show 1. In Show 2 one celebrity will be eliminated at the end of the show.

The celebrities who are not in the “Bottom Two” at the end of Show 2 are safe and will proceed to the following week. The two celebrities who find themselves at the bottom of the Show 2 leaderboard must take on the ‘Vault’ for the chance to stay in the contest.

Head Judge Nadia Comaneci will use her expertise to decide which celebrity has performed the best in the Vault and will therefore be through to the following week. The remaining celebrity therefore leaves Tumble.

It is the Head Judge’s decision alone that decides the celebrities’ fate. She will only take into account the performance on the vault and not any performances from earlier in the show or the contest.

The Tumble medics and physio are on hand throughout the show to ensure all performers are fit to compete.

The format may be altered by Production throughout the series.

Sarah Harding Tumble

As we all know Sarah is doing the new series of Tumble on BBC1, we don’t know anything about when it starts yet or how voting is going to work. Normally you have to pay to vote and international fans can’t vote.

We’ll be doing  like the fanpages did for Kimberley when she was on Strictly.

As from the 2nd week 16th August we’ll be doing the following.

If you have to pay to vote, international fans can paypal us the money for the amount of votes they want and we’ll get them done for you, obviously depending on how long you get to vote will depend on how many votes we can get done. If a lot of people are interested we’ll try and find people to help us out, if we can’t find people it’ll be a first come first served basis, but we’ll TRY our best to get all votes done.

If anyone is wondering we will NOT be making any money from this, this is purely so fans who want to vote and can’t have a chance to do so. You can trust us, we’re the biggest and longest running Sarah fansite and we do everything we can to promote her, we want our gorgeous girl to win this and we will do everything we can to help her on this.

If you’re interested in doing this please either tweet us or email us on sarahhardingaddicts@hotmail.co.uk so we can get a list going of people who are interested.

Once we know more about voting and the start dates we can let you guys have more information.

This is hopefully going to mean more people will be voting for our gorgeous girl and she’ll have more chance of winning.

Obviously we’ll be applying to get tickets so if we get them and go one week, we’re unsure if we’ll be able to vote in the studio but we’ll let you know. If you can’t vote in the studio and we get tickets we have already found someone who is willing to help us out, thank you Sam (@BrilliantlyEvil).

Today the BBC announces the 10 celebrities who will take part in BBC One’s new Saturday night entertainment show, Tumble.

The celebrities vaulting, tumbling and flipping head-over-heels in a bid to win the public’s votes are current world boxing champion Carl Froch, Girls Aloud star Sarah Harding, fitness legend Mr Motivator, EastEnders actor John Partridge and Loose Women host Andrea McLean.

BBC Commissioning Executive, Rachel Ashdown, says: “These celebrities are embarking on a gruelling training regime combining aerial and gymnastic skills. They’ll use them all to deliver breath-taking performances that you’d expect from the department that also produces Strictly Come Dancing.”

Jane Allen, British Gymnastics Chief Executive Officer, says: “This is an exciting opportunity for our sport that will enable people to view gymnastics in a whole new entertainment light. It’s been rewarding for British Gymnastics to work with the BBC in providing technical support and we’re all looking forward to seeing the star cast enjoy the challenges of our sport.”

Kate White and Jane Rice-Bowen, Joint CEOs – National Centre for Circus Arts, say: “We’re delighted to be supporting the BBC in the development of this new show. The most exciting thing for us is that Saturday night audiences are about to be treated to some really special circus performances from some of the leading circus artists in the UK today.”

Master of ceremonies Alex Jones will preside over each show, and judging the celebrities’ performances will be world-renowned Olympic gymnast Nadia Comaneci, Strictly Come Dancing champion and London 2012 medallist Louis Smith, MBE, Commonwealth Games gymnastics champion turned sports broadcaster Craig Heap and world-renowned cirque artist/aerial performer Sebastien Stella.

The famous faces will be put through their paces by high-flying, gravity defying gymnasts from across the globe, whom they’ll be partnered with throughout the series.

All 10 celebrities will start training with professional partners and coaches in the coming weeks before the show kicks off this summer.

Tumble will be made by BBC Productions for BBC One and exact scheduling will be confirmed in due course.

Sarah Harding says: “I’m really excited but a bit nervous about what it is going to be like doing Tumble! I’m really looking forward, but also a little bit scared, about all the training I’ll be doing … but at least it beats going to the gym!”
