WTF???

Danniella was undermarked. A 3.5?

Hayley. 5.5??

Gary 21.0 LOL!!! I would of given a 3.5 and I can skate. The lift was good but he messed it up. He was slow and dull and shown no personality as usual.

Kieron. I'm not a fan of his but he was slightly undermarked he was only slightly worse than Danniella.

Danny- Big fan of his but I must admit he was overmarked. 22?

Mikey even with 2 little stumbles a bit undermarked.

Emily's marks were fair.



I would of given

Hayley 4.5 / 5.0
Danniella 4.5
Kieron 4.0 although he could of easily got a 4.5
Danny 4.0
Emily 3.5/4.0
Gary 3.5
Mikey 3.0

I think he was. Especially as when Hayley and Dan fell, they weren't undermarked nearly as much and it was a much worse fall!

Could someone explain how Robin and Nicky gave Emily a higher mark than Kieron

Emily spent most of her time in hold and her skating was well below the skill level of Kieron. Kieron's jump was also far more difficult that Emily. Emily did skate cleanly and Kieron had a couple of stumbles but taking everything in account it is difficult to see how Kieron could get a lower mark!

Actually, for the second week running, I thought Daniella was a touch over-marked.

There was minimal solo work in her routine, the lifts were a bit ugly and her required jump was very tame. Not sure how she secured a 5.0.

I like the girl a lot, but her performance tonight - not so much.

Gary was overmarked.

4.5 for that mess of a routine?

Emily pretty much always skates in hold. She seems totally incapable of doing anything herself and clings to Fred like a linchpin.

It wasn't a mess.

Yes, he stuttered twice but he was still much, much faster across the ice than the rest, and he skated the bulk of his routine unassisted.

I'm not surprised he accumulated more marks than some of the others - and I'm not even a big fan of his.

So did Coleen and she made Top 4

I know the judges have to deduct marks for mistakes but I still prefer a difficult routine with wobbles - Gary's, Kieron's and Mikey's - to a perfectly executed simple one. Having said that I did enjoy Emily's this week. Kieron still way better than her though.

Gary's routine was SO difficult though - music unmemorable too. Worried for him tonight!

Hayley was a tad overmarked but she got the best routine, music, camerawork & one of the best slots.

We know the maximum marks are agreed before the show, they know who they want at the top.

The whole thing is fixed in terms of giving their favourites a helping hand, that's why I won't vote. If they want to make the decisions then they can pay for it.

I loved the routine and actually quite liked the music. I thought the judges were a bit unfair to Gary, at times he really seemed to be performing in the way they've always willed him to. I enjoyed that the most of any of his routines.

As always.

Who do you think should have topped the table?

I thought Hayley and Danny were easily the best tonight.

Didn't like that version of that song though, who the hell was it, it was awful?!

Good lord, now we're even complaining about Hayley's camera work

I thought the camer work during Hayley's number was silly. It was mostly ariel!

I know but seriously! Even my dad was like "I've never seen that angle before!"

Danniella 4.5
Hayley 4.5
Kieron 4.5
Mikey 4.0
Danny 4.0
Gary 3.5
Emily 3.5

I didn't see anything special about the camerawork for her either!

If anyone could be considered favoured this week (although I don't think he was) it would be Gary for being given a routine dedicated to the Winter Olympics. Some might have seen it as a touch gimmicky.

Personally, I enjoyed watching both him and Hayley

You answered your own question, Emily skated cleanly, her required element while not as difficult was done cleanly.

I love Gary's song. If hadn't been for X-Factor I wouldn't have known Hayley's, and that version was dreadful, made my ears want to bleed.

Thank God it wasn't just me who felt like that! It's from Glee and very popular, apparently!

To see missing post

I agreed that Emily was better than Keiron this week.

I thought he was very brave but his performance was tentative from start to finish which is understandable but the judges have to mark on what they see and nothing else.

I wish Keiron had done a simpler jump. In the end he only managed a quarter axel and it didn't look as good as some of the other contestants' jumps (even when he was doing it before the fall when we watched the training clips it still looked untidy).
