Loved Suzanne's. So beautiful and fitted to the music.

Those who give negatives about it obviously don't enjoy these emotional performances.

i also noticed that Chris spin in his 'cry me a river' routine was slower than when he did it previously.

I thought suzannes performance was fantastic! but I simply cannot stand the girl, she reminds me of a fake american pageant queen! the type that harbours a kind of barely concealed steely desperateness behind a painted face and no I am not talking about her determination to do well and win since that is understandable as it was a competition. I just constantly found myself turned off by her "like me " "love me ... i'm sweet" act, she just always seemed to be reading from some secret internal specially edited for family viewing dancing on ice script! :yawn:

I do concede that her performance was better than zaraahs in terms of the competition but there was just something so emotive and beautyful about zaraah and freds performance that it is without a doubt my favourite performance of the two, I really love those two, they above the other finalists struck me as the most genuine and loveable people of the lot, love em!

As for the competition it was right that suzanne won she was the best on the night, but god! I cant bare her!

Zaraah and fred rock my socks can't wait for the tour!

She winds everyone up thats her forte, her and her friend specialise is winding people up on as many threads as they can. Don't let her get to you because that is what shje wants, Crying out for attention poor thing

I didn't think either deserved all sixes but they were good performances

I suppose you have to be there to see just how good it is. Wish I was :sleep:

To be honest, the better skater, interpreter and dancer won. I thought Chris was brilliant, but she just shaved it on the night. His flying wasn't too good. But the guy did very well, no shame in the results.

I do not think Suzanne's performance was that emotional to make some people cry it was the piece of music! It is such a beautiful song sung by Sarah Brightman. It gets me everytime.

I switched off after Suzanne and Matt got sixes across the board. It was so obvious she was going to win!

I am very cynical I know but she was going to be the winner all along. The chosen one. They spoke about Chris having an advantage because he plays ice hockey but Suzanne has had gymnastic and ballet experience.

Look at all the publicity she has got since the show started Mother of the Year, advertising deals and now she will be starring in the musical Chicago.

She has been pushed to the front all the time. Poor Suzanne how she has ovecome her injuries. Everyone received injuries while doing the show. If Suzanne had really broken her ankle a few weeks ago there is no way could she have put pressure on her ankle and skated. Look at Michael Underwood he had to drop out because of a broken ankle.

ITV know who they want to win these reality shows just look at Christopher Biggins in IIACGMOOH.

He was a chosen one just like Suzanne. Sorry to sound so cyncial.

She got all 6's cos she was last on.

The real Winner to me was Chris who was a joy to watch.

She always had an advantage cos the pro was the man who can throw her around in a spectacular way. Chris deserves heaps of praise for ever getting Frankie off the ice, no other male celeb ever dared do that.

So he could skate to start with, so what? Greg is Canadian, he could probably skate before he could walk, no one says HE had an advantage!

Yes it was that good. I've never been a fan of the flying bit but Suzanne managed several delicate take-offs and landings - she did the walk in the air which is very difficult and her spin at the end was amazing. Iit is easier to do one upright, whereas she was horizontal so she had to hold the position (core muscles fo steel for this!) and the reason it is slower is because she was laid across. When you spin you go faster the more you pull in (physics!) so a horizontal spin will always look slowere yet her head would have been spinning around the circle really fast.

Zaraah's flying was very elegant but had much less difficulty than Suzanne's and just lacked that wow factor and extra polish that Suzannes's had.

I enjoyed Chris's despite his struggles with the upside down bit and do appreciate that for once he had the harder task in this section.

Funny how of those whose favourites didn't win, many now claim it was a fix! Suzanne won me over - I'm sure her performances last night did for many people too.

I was not claiming it was a fix because my favourtie did not win. I did not have a favourite! I am only stating my own personal opinion of how I saw it.

I didn't say it was you that did. There have been plenty of comments on threads that claim this.

It seems a shame, since both finalists have been exceptional all series and I was surprised in the end that Suzanne won even though I thought, on the night, she was the better skater.

However you did say above that you thought she was the chosen one. I'd have thought Chris appeared to be the chosen one all along if anybody.

Since he was not your favourite, if he had won, would it have been him that it was fixed for?

It was brilliant

No. But she still deserved to win.

Yes it was brilliant, all 3 of her perforamces were, and she desevred her scores.
