that's exactly what i mean ...it would be a travesty if comeone like him (or christopher parker in scd 1) won what is essentially a talent competition purely cos people like his personality/feel sorry for him.....fair enough if you can back the personality up with enough talent.....(and david isn't exactly mr personality either)

In truth Stefan shouldnt be there John should be instead What I find perplexing is that, way back in the annals of history when the idea of a judges decider on the bottom two in a public vote was first put forward, the theory was that they would be there to correct mistakes and ensure that the best person to proceed would be saved. I'm further annoyed that Stefan was saved the week before on the basis of potential rather than performance and yet, the following week, the skater with the most potential was removed. Had the judging criteria been consistently applied throughout I suspect there would not be such a great sense of injustice. I think it's a shame that, in a show that should be primarily about skill and aptitude, whilst the bar may have been raised by the remaining competitors we never got a chance to see just how high it could be raised and the blame for that rests firmly with the very people who were there to ensure we got to see the very best the individuals involved were capable of. |

BONNIE MUST GO!! Feather boa as a prop or a chair, hmm which is the most difficult to skate with?!
![]() Who made the decision as to which celeb would get which prop? Bonnie got the feather boa, oh what a surprise - I smell a rat! The programme is called Dancing on Ice, not Being carried around on Ice or Being thrown about on Ice. When does Bonnie actually use her own two feet to dance on the ice? In the whole of their routine she probably doesn't do more than 20 steps her her own - and they're basic steps. She hasn't progressed at all over the weeks and if it wasn't for her partner - who does all the lifting and spinning - her performance would have all the pizzazz of a limp lettuce! |

Just watched again and Bonnie skated unassisted loads on Saturday.
She was great actually. I think she stumbled a bit last week because she was poorly with a cold. |

Jason kept bleating on about Kelly only now being at the stage the others were weeks ago. Not true, her footwork has vastly improved. Especially having to push a chair around the rink.
Bonnie's steps this week were no different to what she was doing weeks ago - she hasn't progressed either. She spent most of her time in the air - with the very difficult feather boa I think you're being very magnanimous saying she stumbled because she had a cold. |

I personally feel that the improvement he has shown has justified his progression in the competition - it's just a shame that others haven't had the opportunity of the same benefit of the doubt. |

Unbiased opinions are also needed when marking the original programme. |

I think that it's time to really test who is a good skater. Next week, the required elements should be that the routine must contain no more than 1 lift, at least two step sequences, a spin and a jump.
That will really test both their skating ability AND whether they can pull off a showman-like performance. |

Stefan was the commonly-acknowledged poorer performer in the skate off the previous week and yet was seen through on the basis of "potential". Had he been judged on the same criteria in both weeks he would not have survived the first week in order to be in the skate off in the second.
I personally feel that the improvement he has shown has justified his progression in the competition - it's just a shame that others haven't had the opportunity of the same benefit of the doubt. yet in the week sean went out i thought he skated the best, he wasnt much cop at lifts but he was a good skater and had the best potential for that part of the competition |
