There's absolutely nothing wrong with coming to this show with a background in dancing, ballet, gymnastics, roller blading, or even some skating.
But, to produce what Chico did tonight, without training in any of those disciplines (and having come in as a replacement) is quite an achievement. And as a viewer, I find it even more satisfying to watch someone learn and develop from scratch (that's why I liked Donal so much - ok that was ONE of the reasons why I liked Donal so much )
I've always thought Chico comes across as a really nice guy so I hope he proves just as popular as he did on the X Factor.

I can remember many reasons from the Donal appreciation thread haha.
In all seriousness though I love Chico's attitude and enthusiasm. He's obviously been working very hard at his technique. It's clear he has some natural ability but to be able to pull off a routine like that so early without any of the background for it ... I was really impressed. He's so likable too, I hope he does well.
lol .... he is very easy on the eye and has a VERY nice physique
Maybe he and Donal have more in common than I first thought! I can see the attraction.....;)
And if I remember correctly, I spent half that time mistaking you for a fella!
he also came across really well in the reality show he took part in where celebs had to be cabin crew .. he was really good at it and had a great work ethic ... I think he's a great signing for DOI
Well I can't believe I'm going to agree with you again:D
It's getting to be a bit of a habit.I'll only disagree with one comment and that is
KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF DONAL;)
I didn't realise you were that way inclined ginger, or have I mistaken you for a fella all this time as well?!
You did but so have half the forum lol, I should have chosen a different name I guess. This year isn't bad for good looking contestants, I'm spoilt for choice male and female. ...I mean the skating is good too.
I'm afraid you've mistaken me for a fella Sid:D
:eek::eek::eek:
I'm mortified! How did I not twig after like two years?
My apologies ginger, I'm clearly rubbish at this game!
I'm expecting Ignazio to announce he's a woman now
Not sure if I should admit it but I always had a soft spot for Chico even at his most irritating on X Factor so am really pleased to find that he can skate and dance and show enthusiasm and come over so well. Go Chico!
Chico surprised me tonight, as I thought he was going to be all mouth and no trousers.Although I don't think he will win it I do think he should stay for a few weeks but who knows?
I used to throw a couple of votes his way every week ice. Between us, we managed to keep him in 'til near the end. Good work
He will have to tone down his cheesiness if he's to win me over totally though.
I think he's married now, and definitely had a kid a couple of years ago - he seems quite family orientated.
Really like Chico - he has great enthusiam for everything he does, has made the most of every opportunity that comes his way and seems like a genuinely nice, positive guy. He has a good attitude towards life.
