Good idea.

Free online voting only for the first time.


Judges - Ashley Banjo, Oti, Jayne, Chris

Greg and Vanessa first up 5.5 6.5 6.5 6.0 = 24.5
Roxy

I hope roxy does OK I've others backed for 1st elimination
Looks safe

yes, standard Sylvain moves

Thought Roxi was half decent, ITV soap ladies have a half decent record in this. Should be around for a while.

yes she was and looked the part.  As usual, the proof of the pudding will come with the solo skating.

Oh dear

oh dear Ricky

Not enough fun for a complete duffer

Amber,  we will be told she is great but she is no prodigy!

Judges - Ashley Banjo, Oti, Jayne, Chris

Under promise and over deliver, not sure it was as great as made out.

what planet was Oti on giving that 6!

what planet was Oti on giving that 6!

Oti needs to wipe that egg off her face, no way a 6.00

Ryan looks to be a runner

Ryan and Amani 6.5 7.0 6.5 6.5 = 26.5

Ryan deserved to top score this week.  Greg's choreography a bit meh.

You would think Hannah bottom this week, Emmmerdale vote should see Roxy safe.

As good as decided,  Ricky to go next week

Thought Miles was a bit better than 6.5, marginally the best so far. App and online vote will help him too.

No app this year

Evening Squares

Good Evening Tobes,

such a dated show this, only so much and so many moves you can do on ice.

Lou and Ricky, Ricky goes I assume.

Lou looked like she was expecting much better scores.

Claire & Colin 5.5 5.5 5.5 5.5 = 22.0

Lou & Brendyn 5.0 4.5 5.0 5.0 = 19.5
Eddie & Vicky 7.0 7.0 6.5 7.0 = 27.5

Eddie is some competitor in everything he tries, that's for sure

Movie Week

Frozen for Hannah
Chuck Berry from Pulp Fiction for Greg
Barbie for Amber

don't think I have ever seen anyone as painful to watch on any of these shows as Ricky

This will be close

Scores no reflection of performance, same as last week.

Ryan & Amani 6.0 6.0 6.5 6.5 = 25.0
Roxy & Sylvain 6.0 5.5 6.0 6.5 = 24.0

Adele is superb

She really is, and she looks great.

Ryan & Amani 6.0 6.0 6.5 6.5 = 25.0

Amber & Simon 7.5 7.5 8.0 8.0 = 31.0

Holly looking good tonight

Could Amber be more over scored,  well at least we know Amber has production protection,  not going to get her over the line in the final though.

agreed

Adele & Mark 7.5 7.5 7.5 7.5 = 30.0
Miles & Vanessa 7.5 8.0 8.0 8.0 = 31.5
Lou & Brendyn 6.0 6.5 6.0 6.0 = 24.5
Amber & Simon 8.5 8.5 8.5 8.5 = 34.0
Ricky & Annette 6.0 6.5 6.0 5.5 = 24.0
Claire & Colin 6.0 6.0 6.0 5.5 = 23.5
Ryan & Amani 7.0 7.5 7.0 7.5 = 29.0
Eddie & Vicky 7.5 7.0 7.0 7.0 = 28.5
Roxy & Sylvain 6.0 7.0 6.5 6.5 = 26.0
Greg & Vanessa 7.5 7.5 7.5 8.0 = 30.5

Skate off: Lou / Claire

Lou & Brendyn saved

Musicals week next week - and a double elimination. Adele's got Little Shop of Horrors, and Amber Revolting Children from Matilda, with a potential headbanger. Eddie's got Phantom of the Opera.

Roxy bottom and OUT ~ Skate Off: SAVED Ricky 4-0 Roxy OUT

Hills have Greg at even money to go tonigh, far from value imo

If Miles had a higher profile going in to the show he would be trading at 1.5

Ryan has what it takes to get the public on side if the judges will play ball.

I will guess at a Amber Eddie skate off

Not doing Amber any favours, looks doomed tonight.
Surprised to see Adele 2nd bottom,  vote will be tested tonight. In the skate off tonight and she can't win the outright!

Miles does not look like plan A, tonight is the night to bring the tens out, as a ten in the final is run of the mill

They need to get rid of Ryan and his dumb smug grin

They could easily have put Ryan bottom of the solo, I had expected it.

They just need him in B2

I think we might get a Miles Amber skate off, or Adele Amber

Adele will get 40 and top the leaderboard

Robbed

The leader board ties stich Miles up

If they save Amber again facebook will combust

Miles could top the vote and still be B2, if he escapes b2 he topped the vote imo

He only needs to be 3rd to escape

Do we not have leader board points
Greg 5
Amber, Ryan and Adele on 4
Miles on 1

Miles gets 3 from judges

Feckin Ryan

Games up for Adele

As far as the outright goes

If they save Amber here i'll fume

Amber is better and had had rough treatment from the public

Has

Bosh

First week since week 1 I've had a +ve expectancy.  Go Greg

I expect Greg to win unless Miles can really make it obvious he is in a class above.

I think there is a disconnect between the judges scores and public perception.  My opinion is that Greg has always been the best skater.  The judges score it much more on aesthetics and gracefulness, whereas I think the public put much more emphasis on skating ability and dynamism.  Greg definitely isn't the most graceful, (week 1 he looked like a giant lump) but he has improved hugely in that department and for me he has always clearly had the most difficult routines.

Greg out

It was the difficult routine that ultimately led to his downfall I imagine.  Taking too many risks for the final

Just skating around like Miles and Adele much less likely to fall and hurt yourself

Good luck Adele backers

Adele backers need help

1st up and the votes open,, couldn't wish for more help

WTF stick her in a group dance in a wig did her no favours at all.

I voted for Ryan 5 times

He fell over

Will the fall work in his favour? he needed to get the onion out.

I'm not watching unfortunately

I doubt it does him too much harm, not what you'd want to see if you were a backer though

I'm on the anyone but Adele train

Ryan is a dire skater

Getting the biggest cheers though

That has been mentioned in comments, also people like his smile.

Best routine choreography wise, hes not the best skater but he has been tonight.

Vote froze

Miles 1.7
Ryan 2.5
Adele 9

Poor Adele

1.8 Miles
2.2 Ryan

Think its close but I think Ryan has edged it.

Ryan seems to be ahead on FB and twatter

Vote closed

Ryan 1,7
Miles 2.3

Wd Ryan backers

Molly over marked for a poor routine,  plan must be dump Anton

With those scores Molly looks to be most in danger

Nice to see you havn't lost your touch
