Compare and contrast. Must say, it was a real treat to have Laura and Chloe in the same series. The other 4 were just on their own as the top female of their respective series.

They were all good for different reasons IMO.

Suzanne was a brilliant performer and a good - but not brilliant skater.
Jessica was a great skater but struggled with the performing aspect, which was a surprise given her background.
Clare was the first of her kind really, a great skater with good performance skills who attacked everything she was given - sometimes a little too much.

Then you've got Hayley - her skating wasn't on par with the other listed above - but she was great performer but her choreography tended to make her look better than what she was - Think Jai Ho!.
Chloe was brilliant throughout the series and a pleasant surprise, her only real down fall was her performance skills - but coming from a background with no performance history it was no real surprise.However, she improved throughout the series and became one of the front runners within skating and performance.
Then there's Laura, my favourite female skater. Like Clare she came to the show with the right attitude and took on board everything that she was told. She performed every number as if it was her last, her skating was strong from day one and she improved throughout the series to get to the high standard that she is now - a brilliantly strong competitor throughout the show
