I like to think I'm as bias as the next fan who likes a certain a couple

Noooooooo! I'm gutted.


It is very odd, isn't it. I wonder if there's been a problem with one of the routines or something.

So what is the order now?

Is it something like
Hayley
Gary
Daniella
Kieron?

Presumably. Though who knows, maybe they moved more about?

You can't be referring to me, anyway. Little Miss Unbiased. I have no favourite.


I guess!

Though maybe the whole lot has been switched. I hope Gary's not first AGAIN.

I don't think it makes much difference to the votes now but I don't like him being on early because the rest of the show is dead to me then.

If you are gutted, we could hand in a petition that they put Kieron on first **runs out and hides**.

I'm pleased they put Hayley first (fair thing), Daniella would have deserved to be last as well, but Kieron has never been last so best possible solutiont.

Overall I don't think it matters at this stage of the competition.

Even though he hasn't been last, he was 4th last week and 3rd the week before so he really is deserving of an early slot. Oh well, Gary got through last week in the worst possible position so who cares.

Look at it this way - Gary got through last week skating 1st, Danny was eliminated after skating last.

Therefore I doubt in the grand scheme it doesn't matter - especially with this few couples left... but I guess as fans, we like any advantage for the couple as possible that we can get

Yeah, exactly. It doesn't matter to me anymore anyway. I just don't like my favourite being on early because I like to have something to look forward to through the show.

Ah, but he has never been last, whereas all of the others have been last. For 2 or 3 weeks running, Hayley and Gary both occupied the last two places, as such it's fair they are given earlier places (I don't mind either of them as you probably know). I know Gary was first last week, however, with four left, he can only be second or third if he isn't first or last (impeccable logic; I don't know what I'm talking about).

As I said though, I don't care about the running order, it never influenced my voting behaviour and I assume it won't influence other people's voting behaviour either.

But never being last is kind of outweighed by consecutive late slots imo.

Also, Gary was first last week and second the week before so second this week isn't entirely deserved but at least it will shut people up.

Yeah the running order really doesn't matter much when you're down to this few people. And the judges have seen the routines in rehearsal so their scores are unlikely to be influenced by being dazzled by the best routine at the start, for example.

Still, we've got to moan about something.

Well your logic is impeccable, so I feel "outdiscussed (to be fair half of the time I don't remember the running order) . Maybe they could all skate together, ergo they are all first and last. It could make for a very interesting semi-final (who can avoid crashing into whom).

Gary & Maria still 2nd according to Maria's twitter
