For a start her mum wouldn't have been allowed to just turn up like that so hardly a big surprise and wouldn't actually be surprised if she hadn't been scripted to say that with the pics since the show is determined to keep pushing it. Personally thought Sylvain looked bored being subjected to the pictures.”

Agree with what you say, especially the bit in bold. Last week Tony Gubba says that Samia was nervous about meeting Sylvain's family, oops, now we have her mum showing up and showing Sylvain photos that went beyond the school photos the other celebs had revealed, with the comment about showing him "what he is letting himself in for", another oops.
It seems to me with all these "oops" that viewers are being given teasing amounts of info about the "relationship". Samia cannot blame "the press", and if she bleats about privacy I will scream.
The thing is though I could not care less whether they are together and I actually enjoy her performances, but these oops moments are irritating because they are adding fuel to a publicity fire that Samia seemed to claim at the start she does not want. hmm

I get the impression that they like the attention and enjoying playing along, almost encouraging the "are they aren't they"

Sylvain certainly doesn't look like he's enjoying "playing along" as you put it, to me he looks really uncomfortable with the whole issue.

If he doesn't like it and is that uncomfortable then he doesn't have to play along, he can say no.

What do you expect them to do not record a vt? It was hardly promoting their relationship.
Last weeks vt only talked about her ribs and the duel.

But this is DOI if producers tell you to play along you play along! How many times has Dan had to play along with the rubbish that they've tried to have the public believe?

Well then he can't complain if he has signed up for that. Same for Dan or anyone else. Get the impression Dan likes that kinda thing though

I find it farcical that Samia insists she is SINGLE and does not want all this publicity in the newspapers but the producers of DOI keep on and on and on about their relationship. Is she, isn't she!! As though we CARE!!!!! I find it a real turn off, dislike Samia for lying to the public as obviously (by her mother's own comments) she is seeing Sylvain. Jason's comments about "chemistry" is just boring.
Amazingly Samia can be carried around the ice repeatedly by her partner yet when Anthea did the same she was criticised by the judges.
Also as Jennifer has talked to the media about her disappointment that her relationship with Sylvain is over etc I think it is very disrespectful for Samia to allow all these (no doubt scripted) comments to be made. People have obviously been hurt here, it is not a joke!!

Samia allowed her mother to appear with a family photo album and actually said......Now Sylvain, you know what you are getting into......?!!! Was that necessary, she could have watched a rehearsal and said nothing............... Samia is allowing these comments to be made she could stop them by complaining to the producers.

Wow I think your talking it far too seriously. Just chill it doesn't matter at the end of the day. It's their lives.

Nope, you are saying they are not playing along with anything when they actually are!! I just find it extremely irritating that the producers of DOI think the viewers are stupid. Rather insulting. I just do not bother to watch DOI regularly anymore. If it happens to be on and I have nothing better to do, I watch a few skaters but it is not like before when I really enjoyed it.

Samia seems to be developing an air of smugness to me .... which after her "poor me" VT in week one is becoming irritating

Well there's nothing you can do about it so why let something so trival upset you so much.

So if she's upset it's a problem and when she's happier and more confident just getting on with things it's still a problem. Guess she can't win.

no the whining about the press coverage and now actively courting it is the problem

Well said, I found the VT last night very insensitive and in poor taste.

She didn't whine she made a comment about it because it was a big thing that week. I don't see her courting anything but each to their own. Doesn't bother me either way I enjoy their VTs.
