Letting her be carried around is doing her no favours
It kind of makes a mockery of the show when Samia gets saved despite her shortcomings, and two people who genuinally can i.e Matt and Shayne are in the skate off
Same. She gets far too much hate. She does need to skate on her own more though.
From me it is not hate ... it is frustration that we are mid way though the series and she is still being carried about and oooo so nervous about dancing on her own!!!!!! its called Dancing On Ice after all and good dancer are going while she whinges on
I honestly have not seen any improvement in her skating skills. I'm glad that Chris Dean didn't let her get away with the 'I can only skate what I'm choreographed' remark. As he said we can choreograph a routine to make you look good (piloted around by your partner with some pretty lifts) or bad (make you do some real skating)- what do you prefer?

very true ... Joe and Keith do more skating and are willing to do more and don't moan
there was no chemistry in Samia and Sylvain's performance either considering they're supposed to be shagging :cool:

she came across a bit spoilt brattish tonight
I think she is just interested in 'getting together' with Sylvain, she doesn't seem to have progressed at all, so her interest is obviously not in the skating.:D
I hate to say it but as the weeks go on I'm liking them less and less. It was an ok routine but there was nothing to kind of go ooh thats really good.
Sylvain was doing 99% of the work and even then Samia wasn't putting any effort in either. It does seem like she is happy to rely on coasting through on the Corrie vote a bit and not really on her own efforts whereas the others are at least trying albeit not very good.
To admit she would rather not try properly and look good than try and look bad is wrong IMO to me she doesn't want to improve really and perhaps has gone as far as she can go.

Same here. I started off liking them, and even though the "are they/aren't they" hype got on my wick, I still enjoyed watching their routines. Now we seem to be seeing nothing new and she doesn't seem to be trying. Her attitude in the vt suggested "I should skate on my own, but I don't want to", and her reaction to the judges confirmed my feeling that she is assuming she can do what she wants.
I like Samia, and think people are being a bit harsh, but she really does need to skate more by herself! She managed it a few weeks ago and did fine... personally I feel that she did the headbanger too early, and was focussing on that when her skating skills should have been getting polished. She's doing well, but could be doing a lot better IMO!

Yes, she might as well be a hat or a table.:D

Yes but I wouldnt like to see her go yet. If she goes, there will only be one girl remaining. Sorry.
I think I'd like to see people get through on merit - regardless of gender.

I know and actually agree with you, but would like to see Joe go before Samia:)
Yes, point taken. I'd like to have seen both go before Oona or Shayne.
he even facilitated the little on ice movement she did by either pushing or pulling her
Exactly, I thought Oona had so much potential and Shayne I just cant believe was in the bottom two. We'll see what happens.:)
