Not only is Kerry guilty of this but Dominic didn't skate on his own, neither did Denise. The latter two's scores did not reflect this and it wasn't mentioned either
holding on for dear life

I didn't see much solo skating from Jennifer Metcalfe either
Kerry's routines are one big lift though aren't they lets face it and she wobble even when in hold with Winky.
Denise started her routine last week solo; she's not clutching onto Matt for dear life and you can see does have some skating ability - same with Dominic; who has also skated solo in at least one/ two of his routines.
Kerry looked like an insane mess being carted around tonight - but it clearly doesn't matter as she is enjoying it

This. She was seriously overmarked IMO.

Agreed. A lot quicker across the ice than most & technically able...even though his singing is a little distracting!

Me either and on her clip at the end she really didn't look good.

I was really liking Kerry at first but this describes her. And agree with you about Denise who was actually better this week than previously,
Ive not been getting involved with KK threads on here, so my opinion is purely on her skating. But after tonights attempt ill be amazed if shes not in the bottom two
It's not just about independence on the ice though.
I'm not a fan but Denise and Dominic seem to have a bit more more movement and speed across the ice compared to Kerry whose whole routine felt quite static and slow.

Yeah but jennifer has proved she can skate solo in previous weeks and she was good... unlike kerry who's 5 seconds of standing still and waving her arms like a mad looney somehow counts as solo skating.. i dont think so ... kerry to leave for me !!

I agree. Cant see why that is. The guy comes across as being really polite and gracious. I really dont want him to be in the bottom 2.

IIRC, Kerry did some solo skating that wasn't standing still on the ice.
Not much, but some.
The problem in Kerry's routine wasn't just that she didn't skate on her own. I was waiting for the bit they were talking about, then realised it had already happened.
The big problem is that Dan is doing all of the work and pushing her around, and doing 95% of the work in the lifts. The other women who are lifted a lot are doing more to hold themselves in the lifts, and in the case of Jennifer, are able to keep up with their partner when skating at speed around the rink, even if they are holding on.

Maybe so but she cant be compared to jennifer at all who has actually skated and by that i mean move up and down the ice turn/spins etc ... which kerry has not ... i mean seriously i can understand people liking her as a person but this is a skating/dancing competition and she cannot do either imo without being held up by her partner ... i think she is a lovely person but i think she deserves to be in the bottom 2 tonight although i seriously doubt that she will be

I think you're right he was undermarked he does a very entertaining routine which is also challenging, and comes over as being a really nice guy.

I agree .. jen wasnt the best tonight but she was a million miles better than kerry and when kerry is compared to jen, chloe and laura who are all really good you can see how incredibly weak she is... i felt uncomfortable watching her
