He has been around too long and will therefore have a fan base..............and he's rubbish.


















NB This is a response to the many Ray threads!

Get him out! He's well known and absolutely rubbish at skating, and therefore has an unfair advantage over all the other "celebrities" I've never even heard of, whose skating is merely mediocre. This is totally unfair!!!

I totally agree, he is too well known to be on DOI.

He and Ray were the 2 highlights of the show imho (for totally different reasons obviously though!)

I only hope that his lack of confidence doesn't put him or Suzie in danger. I am hoping now that his panto has finished that he is able to put in the much needed training and as he has 2 weeks hopefully we'll see a massive difference next time.

I'm slightly surprised the producers allowed Todd on the show anyway - I mean, The Bill notwithstanding, he's famous primarily for being in two long-running shows on the BBC. He should have waited to be offered SCD like all the other ex-Enders

Presumably ex-soapstars come cheap, ditto ex-footballers/rugby players. In fact anyone whose career is in need of a rocket, otherwise we'd get famous people we've all heard of. Will Young, Leona Lewis, Kate Winslet etc.

Yet again we have an example of a "celebrity" who is unable to display any of the talents required to take part in this event. Many viewers will claim it is simply a TV programme for entertainment value alone and that we should not be too critical of their abysmal performances (eg: John Sargent.) I would agree that Celebrity Big Brother or I'm a Celebrity - Get Me Out of Here are such programmes but surely, those which require celebs to sing, dance or skate are intended to reveal how talented the performers are in these particular disciplines.

I take my hat off to Todd for agreeing to take part but it is pretty obvious that he is completely useless on the ice. Despite this, miguided viewers voted him through and Graeme was eventually the one to go.

Surely it is time for these "talent" contests to be judged purely by the panels of "so-called" experts who have at least some knowledge of what they are judging. Leaving the voting up to the public can only be a disaster since it is obvious from the number of ludicrously poor auditions for the X-Factor that many members of the public can't recognise talent at all.

Yikes!

I was only joking when I posted this thread - it was a reaction to all the ridiculous threads saying Ray shouldn't be allowed on DOI - I think it is good to see people like Todd at the start of the competition, however, we should also see them go quickly!

So what if he has a fan base. There are many who have a fan base. You can't expect the shows production to call up a no body.

It will be good to see how well he can do from such a low starting point.
I like Todd and i hope he stays in for sometime,
