They spend all of Monday and Tuesday choreographing with the celebrities and working on the opening number. Then they have a day off on Wednesday and catch up with the celebs on Thursday and Friday, making any adjustments needed. But they don't spend a full day with each celeb - it's an hour or two per contestant each day. That's why there's also other coaches and it's why we've seen Karen and Stephen Pickavance and others tweaking the choreography on VTs when Chris and Jayne were working with other contestants or were on their day off.

I'm still miffed she got as far as she did when the judges eliminated Louisa Lytton instead of her

I still find it astonishing that they control all of the choreography anyway, not to mention doing the lion's share of the pro routines.

It’s possible this could be the coldest February for years, so it shouldn’t come as any great surprise that it was chilly at Dancing on Ice on Sunday. However, the cold front that passed through wasn’t outside but was on the inside of the studio! It’s always a shame when someone gets voted out, but Sharron Davies may have hastened her own downfall when she refused to skate to the music set by Torvill & Dean, picking her own (much slower, “less taxing”) track. I may be wrong but I think maybe that was a big mistake. T & D were far from happy, Jason left his seat early in protest and I was blue from the chill. I tend to think that Olympic Gold medal winning and international skating legends, probably know best! Sharron admitted on This Morning that she had never watched the show prior to signing up and thought there would be “more skating and less dancing.” Note to future contestants… be sure you understand what Dancing on Ice actually means!!

This is what Philip posted on his web site yesterday!

What do Jayne and Chris know best then Philip?

Do they know her body best? Do they know what she is capable of doing best?

I suspect Sharron knows both of those things far more than Jayne and Chris.

And does Philip actually think the music is set by Jayne and Chris? The music is just given to them by the production them.

Yeah I read this the other day way to be an impartial host there, Phil!!

Omg what an insufferable man he is. Why dont ppl twitter back and tell him he is disappearing up his own backside.

Also walk up to him and shout loudly in his ear - let him feel the pain we go through every sunday with his constant shouting into the mic !!!

Whilst you`re at it, ruffle his hair up and unstraightened his tie - I`ve a feeling he`d burst out crying

Ha ha ha... brilliant I thought I was the only one with bleeding ears
