I'm not taking anything away from Bonnie's agility and her spectacular lifts but Stefan is by far the better solo skater and has a more difficult job to lead his partner. Methinks perhaps there is a little bit of bias towards Bonnie by the judges.
Time to up the ante and give them more solo steps to do then we'll see who really can cut the rug.
Stefan will never score as high as Bonnie so long as Jason is a judge - its clear he doesnt like him - you can always predict the score with Jason when it comes to Stefan- he always marks him a point or two below bonnie.
Bonnie does seem to get high scores regardless, it was the same last week when she looked very wobbly on the ice. Stefan and Gaynor were both better than her tonight.

Remember teenage angst - if we fancied anyone we were totally dismissive. Need I say more!
If Kelly stays in tonight I'll be disgusted. She sat on/balanced on the chair the whole way through. The rest of them atleast skated at some point. I don't know why the judges didn't comment on it. They must want her in the final.

She did skate on her own though still a little wobbly.

Agreed. Bonnie was ok but Stefan was superb. I've never particularly been a fan of his but tonight his performance moved me to tears. Considering that he had what was probably the worst prop he deserved much higher marks from the judges.
Yes but I thought the judges would have been 100% behind John and they weren't, so who knows ?
It is supposed to be on the skate off alone as well isn't it and Bonnie was up against arguably the weakest skater in the skate off yesterday - so she did deserve to go through.
I think the final will be between Stefan, Bonnie and David.
Thank god Im not the only one who think Steffan was better than Bonnie last night. Could the judges be anymore biased? Particualy Jason who gave Steffan a much lower score than the other judges.
Personally I think that although Bonnie looks fantsatic in the air, she's very ropey on the Ice.
I couldn't believe Robins' remarks last night after giving Bonnie 5.5, that her skating on the ice is matching her performance in the air!
Bonnie is spectacular in the air noone denies that - so is Robin suggesting that she is now spectacular on the ice? And if he is what does that make Stefan, Gaynor and David - they all 'skate' better than Bonnie.
Bonnie may not have done as much ice skating as some, but as one of the judges said - it's Bonnie and partner I look forward to each week going ooohh and aahhh at their routines. Just like the X factor isn't all about singing, DOI isn't all about ice skating (imo I hurriedly add) - to me it's the all round general performance. Yesterday I loved the routines from everyone except Kelly. Stefan was great and I take nothing away from him.
sorry but what is the x factor about if it isn't about singing?....or are you really saying that an average singer with a larger than life personality is a more worthy winner than an exceptional singer who is less of a personality? i'm asuming here you're not referring to someone's sexiness or otherwise as the reason you vote for them
