The panel scores meant that they had initial points as below:

Daniella: 5
Hayley: 4
Danny: 3
Kieron: 2
Gary: 1

I reckon the public vote probably gave points like this:

Gary: 5 (+1) = 6
Daniella: 4 (+5) = 9
Hayley: 3 (+4) = 7
Kieron: 2 (+2) = 4
Danny: 1 (+3) = 4

Though Gary could just have come third in the vote, and still avoided the skate-off...

Or maybe

Gary 1+5 = 6
Kieron 2+4 = 6
Hayley 4+3 = 7
Daniella 5+2 = 7
Danny 3+1 = 4

I have no idea really

I reckon...

Hayley 4 + 5 = 9
Daniella 5 + 1 = 6
Gary 1 + 4 = 5
Kieron 2 + 3 = 5
Danny 3 + 2 = 5

Therefore, Kieron and Danny in the skate-off. Gary scrapes through with a higher public vote than Kieron, and Daniella scrapes through on her overmarking.

I'm not putting Hayley top because I'm a blind fan, but because she is the only one not to have been bottom 2 (Gary has), and because her vote has now been tested away from first place.

Likewise, I'm not putting Daniella last because I dislike her, but because it's been shown consistently in previous weeks that she was bottom of the vote nad that Kieron and Danny were above her, and at this point in the series there's no reason to think it will change so dramatically in one week.

I think from last night's vote it's clear that Gary was at least in 2nd place.

I agree with this.

Unfortunately Danniella isn't that popular with the public and Hayley is for some reason.

I guess she can console herself with the fact that she's extremely popular with the others on the show.

Danny being the 4th celeb to say they are backing her to win.

How did the voting go?

"Leading experts have concluded that voters must have been blindfold, forced to wear earmuffs and then asked to pick a button at random from a panel. Nothing else can explain such terrible voting patterns."

.....

Now you are sly fox aren't you. However, maybe there is merit in your "madness" if you apply your reasoning to the judges' decision.

If there was a thread about the judges' decision then I'm sure I would have a comment ready for it.

Oh go on! I dare you; you know you want to.

I shouldn't be encouraged really.

But I may just be unable to resist the temptation.

Yes you should. Shall I start a petition?

Hayley 4 + 4 = 8
Daniella 5 + 2 = 7
Gary 1 + 5 = 6
------------------------
Danny 3 + 3 = 6
Kieron 2 + 1 = 3

This is most plausible, imo. Considering Kieron's popularity on here and other places, it seems the only person who probably got more votes (as in more people picked up their phone and saved ) is GARY.

Yep agree with this. I think Gary has a strong public vote now and it will be him and Hayley doing Bolero.

Lol.

I think it's extremely unlikely that Daniella was bottom of the public vote this week, tbh. I could see Hayley having done worse than expected though.

Thats how I worked out the scoring too.
It must have been either Hayley or Gary top, and the three boys ending up with 5 points each overall.
Daniella's score was a disgrace last night. She can be brilliant, but to give her those marks for 'pointing her feet' and 'hairography' was ridiculous.
And don't get me started on Karen in the skate-off!

Well we dont really know that do we because she has been top every single week bar this one even though she was second she still has those judges points on her side and maybe not the public

I'd say Daniella top, then Hayley, but not sure after that point

If the top two were that, Gary would have to be third. At very least, that's where he came.

I'm assuming the Daily Star leak was true, as they have a good record when it comes to leaks on these shows.

Of course they could be wrong, but it also tallies with what I find on twitter where she is by far the most popular.

Really???

Twitter followers:

@hayleysoraya - 5,422
@gary_lucy - 10,617
@kieronrichardso - 14,246

Now I'm not saying that Twitter popularity means much, but I don't think there's much evidence that Hayley is the most popular on Twitter... Quite the opposite...

I really doubt that she topped the voting this week, either. Though she was probably in the top half.

Hayley 4+5 = 9
Gary 1+4 = 5
Daniella 5+3 = 8
Danny 3+2 = 5
Kieron 2+1 = 3

I'm sorry, but 10 million people watch Dancing on ice...and I'm sure a few out of these 10 million people vote, therefore these "thousand" twitter followers make no difference whatsoever

Speaking of Twitter, it is a good way to say something to aby contestant as they do read and reply. Danny replies to nearly everyone, Hayley and Kieron reply to as many as possible and Gary replies to about 7 or 8 people each time he's on. I've got four replies from him.

I feel bad for Kieron though cos if you look on his Twitter he replied to some idiot abusing him. Luckily the guy abusing him got Kieron's username wrong in the second tweet so Kieron won't see it.

Sorry for going OT but just thought people who don't have Twitter might want to know.

That's what really annoys me about things like twitter. You wouldn't abuse someone like that in a face to face interaction, but it's ok because you can hide behind your computer.
