VOTING IS NOW OPEN. ANYONE CAN VOTE.

To vote, please rank the 10 couples above, giving 10 points to your favourite couple and down to 1 point for your least favourite couple, and PM those rankings to me by 9PM TONIGHT.

One more couple will leave the competition this evening. To ensure that it is not your favourite, please vote!

The vote has closed, and I can now reveal the results.

The first 2 couples to get through to week 3 are........

SALLY & ANDREI

and

REBECCA & PAVEL


Congrats to them and their mentors Val and David.

The next 2 couples to get through are...........

BEN & FRANKIE

and

JAMIE & BRIANNE

Congrats to them and their mentor David who has all of his couples through to week 3

The next 2 couples to be skating again next week are..........

SCOTT & VICKY

and

JAMES & KATIE


Congrats to Val who has both of her couples through to week 3 and also Toni.

The final 2 couples to definitely be through to week 3 are.........

JENA & MATT

and

OLIVER & SUSIE

Congrats to Toni, who has both of her couples through but sadly for Eliza she will definitely be losing one couple tonight.

So Max & Maria, and Liz & Dan. One of you will be saved, the other will be eliminated.

You both got the same amount of votes, and there was no viewer vote tonight. Therefore, I think the fairest way to do it would be to take the leaderboard into account, and therefore Liz & Dan are tonight's eliminees.

For week 3, you all need to choose songs from "X FACTOR STARS" - basically any song that has been released by someone who was a finalist (ie top 12, top 16 etc) on the UK version of X Factor.


Can all songs please be sent to me by 9PM TUESDAY

Val and Toni are still yet to send me songs and they have already received a reminder PM.

Please send me suggestions for them - the show is being moved to Wednesday (along with the Strictly version) as I have that day completely free.

Everything has now been marked.

Toni's couples have each had 6 points knocked off their potential score as she failed to send me any song choices.

You all picked quite decent songs, so well done the show will be put up later today, after I have put up the SCD version.

Welcome to week 3 of Ice Stars! Last time we lost Liz & Dan from the competition after they failed to impress with their "dance craze" routine. This week the couples have to tackle songs released by X Factor stars, but who will succeed and who will go home, let's find out.


First, we go to Team Eliza.

Max & Maria - "Everybody In Love" by JLS

Robin - 7
Jason - 6
Katerina - 7

Making a total of 20 out of 30.

Katerina - You have certainly improved since last week Max. Your skate had a real contemporary feel to it which was great, well done.

Oliver & Susie - "Thinking Of Me" by Olly Murs

Robin - 6.5
Jason - 5.5
Katerina - 6.5

Making a total of 18.5 out of 30.

Robin - Your speed and control over the ice is much better, and the technical elements were all clean. We now want to see a little more difficulty within the routine.



We now go to Team David.

Rebecca & Pavel - "Nothing's Real But Love" by Rebecca Ferguson

Robin - 7
Jason - 6.5
Katerina - 7

Making a total of 20.5 out of 30

Jason - Rebecca you are always graceful and fluid and I liked the romanticism within your performance. I would however like to see you change it up next week and do a more up-tempo number.

Jamie & Brianne - "Bad Boys" by Alexandra Burke

Robin - 6
Jason - 5
Katerina - 6

Making a total of 17 out of 30.

Katerina - Your routines are always entertaining, you have put a lot of hard work in and it shows. A great skate.

Ben & Frankie - "The Impossible Dream" by Rhydian Roberts

Robin - 6.5
Jason - 6
Katerina - 7

Making a total of 19.5 out of 30.

Robin - A good performance from you Ben. It's the same thing with you as with Oliver, we need to up the difficulty a bit so that you can get higher scores.



Now to Team Toni.

James & Katie - "Wow Oh Wow" by Jedward

Robin - 4.5
Jason - 4
Katerina - 4.5

Making a total of 13 out of 30

Jason - This could have been a good skate, but you need to work on your dancing, some of your arm movements were just thrown away.

Jena & Matt - "Shut Up & Give Me Whatever You Got" by Amelia Lily

Robin - 5.5
Jason - 5
Katerina - 5.5

Making a total of 16/30

Katerina - Not as polished as your usual performances but I think you know that. You need to try and pick up the choreography more quickly so that everything is clean on the ice.



And finally to Team Val.

Sally & Andrei - "Red Planet" by Little Mix

Robin - 6
Jason - 5.5
Katerina - 6.5

Making a total of 18 out of 30.

Robin - A much improved effort Sally, we can all see that. You need to look at your positioning when getting in and out of lifts as you usually have a wobble there.

Scott & Vicky - "Gotta Be You" by One Direction

Robin - 7.5
Jason - 7
Katerina - 7

Making a total of 21.5 out of 30.

Jason - WOW! Scott, you really performed that song and on behalf of the others, well done on that full drape lift as you executed it perfectly, brilliant.
