Don't think ITV would pay so much money to showcase a Hollyoaks star ... just the luck of the draw methinks but Gareth for the final anyway, lol

It has given this series an air of inevitability.

Only Suzanne has topped Chris on the leaderboard during the course of the series.

I'm getting slightly bored with his performances now.

Although i am supporting Zaraah, I think she will go out this weekend

But i think Chris has had an advantage as he is an ice hockey player, therefore he has no fear of the ice

People don't seem to be voting for Zaraah so maybe she will go, but although I'm not a fan of Gareth I do think he's improved the most. Suzanne is very good overall, but I think she was quite good at the start you can't really see an improvement.

Chris I don't think is very deserving. He always seems to be doing his own thing without Frankie and going too fast for her! Why he wanted to put in an axel I don't know, it just shows him off and not his partner, they don't like the multi-revolutions in pairs ice dancing.

Zhaara is looking good on the new training video on the ITV side.

I know what you mean, Chris is a bit of a show off

It has become nothing more than a showpiece for his skills, with little interaction between him and Frankie, which renders the performance somewhat samey and dull.

There is no sign of progression because he was already competent on the ice.

Totally agree but unfortunately I think Zaraah will go.

She's going to have to be amazing to get through though!

I'd love to see her come out and give a great performance with Fred this week - I haven't seen the training video but good luck to them

I'm still watching the show, but its not worth voting. SCD was far more exciting. I'm getting a bit bored of DOI. Instead I've been YouTubing the judges' past performances and competitions....far more exciting!!!

I think the kate-off will be between Suzanne and Zarrah, so the judges will have to make a difficult decision if Zarrah does skate well. Gareth deserves to be in the final, as he has improved so much, and he hasn't peaked yet IMO.

I don't think she has to be amazing. She may well end up in the skate-off, but then the judges may well save her.

I don't think Zaraah has skated better than Suzanne yet, but that hasn't stopped judges from giving her higher marks.

Part of the problem is that Suzanne's earlier performances have raised expectations. Zaraah can get away with easier lifts and simpler skating, so long as she performs them well.

I don't think they will though - she's been in the bottom 2 for the past three weeks and Chris, Suzanne and Gareth have never been in the Skate off. Although I enjoy Zaraah's performances much more than Gareth's I think the judges are already classing Chris, Suzanne and Gareth as the "Top 3"

Just because one hasn't been in the skateoff doesn't mean they wont save Zaraah it depends on the night/her performance, If she's up against Gareth she has a chance even with Suzanne..

I like Zaraah Chris and Suzanne so I dont Mind really.....Gareth isn't that great but thats just my opinion.

Looked at another way, she was in the bottom 2, but she was saved both times; and, last week at least, the judges didn't have her in the bottom 2: they had Greg and Suzanne. In today's Mirror, Jason finds something good to say about all of them - except Suzanne.
