After watching some old routines on youtube, is anybody else disappointed that she is not in this series, I think she could have been a really big contender within the girls.

No reflection on her ability or performance but in her series she didn't even manage to beat Sam who struggled for votes despite skating and performing very competently. I think she'd have done a Jorgie (remember Sam was in the skate off week one).

She was pregnant when training started.

No, I can't say I'm disappointed at all.

She was my favourite female contestant but yes, she 100% would have done a Jorgie, or Zaraah at best. Her vote would never have held up. The same would have happened to Clare. If you're a fan of these two girls it's probably a blessing they aren't here. I was never a big Jorgie fan so that upset me less.

I really like Laura & Clare and have to agree with you there. Both of them struggled for votes at times during their original series & Sam & Kyran who beat them were not big vote grabbers this year.

DOI is as much a popularity contest as a skating one otherwise Hayley wouldn't be anywhere near the final.
