They are recycling costumes from SCD. I recall Hanna Harala (during the professional showdance) wearing an almost identical outfit as Kelly but with a black wrap on top of her silver bra
Am sure the presentation will improve over the weeks. I think you can feel the contestants nervousness, and watching ten couples skating in a row can be drawn out (watch the compulsory dances at the Euro Champs next week and you will learn what drawn out can be... 20 couples doing the same dance!).
Generally, I am just happy to see skating on telly!

That's the only thing I'm counting on, the fact that they will get a lot better. I'm looking forward to that
I think this is okay so far but it lacks the class and slick presentation of SCD. Also, part of the interest of SCD is seeing the different dance styles. 10 weeks or so of just different combinations of the same steps may get very repetative here - maybe they should theme the weeks or something to give it some more distinct variety.
John Barrowman was excellent though and I'll keep watching as long as he's in.
Just checked BARB, and Strictly Ice Dancing pulled 7.24m on 26/12/04, a good audience but lower than the regular show. It may give us an indication of what tonight's audience will have been. Having said that, BBC1's line up was weak tonight. I can see it having got 9m, but wonder if it will hold on to that audience.
Really fed up, I was loving this as I was an ice dancer/skater many moons ago and then we suffered our second power cut this evening just as Bonnie Langford finished.
It's much harder for the amateur men tbh and will never be a fair competition because of that.

I think 9 million is a bit of an over-estimation. Shows rarely ever debut at that level. Even when fully established HUGE shows like X Factor and SCD had to grow to that sort of figure.
I don't think that just because nothing else is on that people will by default watch something crap like Dancing On Ice.
I'd guess that it would have got about 5 - 6million tonight. We'll just have to wait and see.
IS the judge in the middle from queer eye for the straight guy UK?
Yes he is and he really knows his stuff when it comes to movement. I wasn't expecting to see him on a show about ice dancing though, they're very different sports in many ways

He said he's a dancer, but what was he doing on Queer Eye then?
anyone noticed that Philip had the results in his hand before the lines had closed? How blatent was that?
blatant yes, but anyone believing they actually close the lines when the presenter says they do probably also believes in Father Christmas.... :rolleyes:

Isn't that ITV1's motto?
On the evidence of the last 90 mins, probably not in this case!
Not as far as I'm aware
Good show all in all.

As has already been mentioned the girls seem to do the least skating and spend more time in the air.

No to mention Dame. Chris and Jayne must wonder why they are not Sir Chris and Dame Jayne.

Anyone got the scores?

Surely the BBC should be getting their lawyers lined up?
