According to some reports, Chris hurt his shoulder during the Christmas special and won't be allowed to skate during the show. He'll be there as a mentor but he won't be able to skate with Jayne. God I hope this isn't true.

Although mentoring is good, mentoring is fine.......well, it's not. I don't believe it! I shant!
I think the likeliest scenario if Chris can't skate, is that the pros will skate at the show opening. Probably a group number the first week, perhaps with Jayne, and then possibly individual routines each week from Mel & Fred, Andrei & Suzie, Nina & Matt etc, until Chris is given the go-ahead to get back out there. Not ideal (I'd much rather watch Chris & Jayne) but it'll be good to see the pros get a chance to shine. They have that opportunity on the tour but not usually on the show itself.
Yes i remember that. It was just 1 week though wasn't it?
I hope hes not out the show for long. I really like T&D, they are brill together.
I like memmh am waiting until this is confirmed by a more trustworthy source, there are some things that don't add up, and many of which have already been highlighted by y'all.
If it is that he's gonna' solely do a mentoring role and that alone then at least that's better than him being sidelined completely, any Chris exposure is welcomed this end...
I seriously hope he's alright though, what a massive blow that must be to him, Jayne and indeed everyone!
On another forum:
I'm very sad that he won't be skating at the start of the new series and wish him a very speedy recovery. As for many others, T&D's routines are the highlight of the show for me.
Hopefully he'll be back on the ice again with Jayne soon.
I bought my folks tickets for Xmas.
I hope he's fit enough by then
Will Chris only be missing the first show's opener, then he'll be back skating with Jayne in the second show?
When he was interviewed on Monday he hoped it wouldn't be too long and he said he would skate on Sunday but was advised not to.
He is hoping to get back as soon as possible (maybe week two or three), I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Lol, was he skating in the dress rehearsal?
The man will never learn lol, wouldn't surprise me!
When you think of the injuries - broken ribs etc - that the celebs have skated with in previous series, I agree with you. It's easy to forget, though, that he and Jayne are not longer "spring chickens" and over 50s can take long to heal/mend than 21 yrs old!
Whatever, best wishes for a speedy recovery - Chris.
