Could be interesting ... especially as there is nothing much else worth bothering with on Saturday tv now that SCD is over until next time.
I just wonder how many bruised bums there will be during the programme? I know we witnessed Ian slipping or tripping briefly when dancing with Zoe but the "floor" in this ice rink will be a lot slippier - a probably harder! - than the dance floor.
Definitely going to watch, and hoping for the best.
Really hoping it will be good and hopefully spark a new interest in ice-skating. Will be a good introduction to the forthcoming international skating season. Also I will be very interested to see which "real" skaters are in it. I know one of them and she was going to be skating with Paul Burrell but as David Seaman has now replaced him I presume she's got David. Hhhmm think I know which I'd prefer.
She can still do the splits! I saw her perform not too long ago.. but I have seen her a couple of times a year as she hosts some shows that my pupils perform in. She has always made an effort to talk to the kids and make them feel special.
I saw her in a Dance Gala evening in York dancing a Samba with Anton du Beke! It was soooo good! The music was a cross between 'Let's Face the Music' and 'Tequila' (the Samba song, not Terrorvision!)
Still trying to get a copy of the music cos it was so good!

Not long now to find out how they do.
ITV have not only nicked the format, they've stolen a celeb (David Seaman) and a pro (Daniel Whitson - Danced with Scarlett Johnson). ITV suck!!!!! :rolleyes:
Still looks fun though. I love Torvil and Dean. Used to have a vid of them I watched all the time when I was a kid. and I love John Barrowman. And Stefan Booth.
But I know I'm gonna miss Anton now
SS was a lot of fun.
It'll be interesting to see how the new show works - 5 judges.
I think that Bonnie must be the leading contender (before seeing any of them actually dance).
You do the Math!
I'm gonna spend the whole series comparing them! :rolleyes:
Not yet - he'll be one of the later ones (if they follow the same order as the intro.)
The same thing seems to apply - that the male celebrities are at a disadvantage having to lead. But marks seem to be reflecting this (so far).
But my biggest surprise was Sean (Martin Platt). He had picked up basic skating technique well and seemed to really enjoy it. And with Marika he's certainly got a partner that will want to push him.
One slightly odd thing was that they put the judges opposite the cameras. So the skaters were performing to the cameras and with their backs to the judges. This would never happen in a real skating competition. And the routines can look very different from behind. It is always more difficult to get tickets behind the judges - so I have often seen plenty of skaters' backsides - not such a bad thing sometimes though!!
So far I like John as I think Bonnie has a bit of an advantage seen as she's a professional dancer.
Yes, I thought they were the best too. I like the show but it seems a little too drawn out, a bit too long winded IMO
edit : and am I the only one that spotted Kelly Holmes wearing and almost identical outfit to the one Hanna wore during the professional jive?
