Which is your favourite:

Krez
Natalia
Ruthie

...and did ITV make the right decision by still having Ruthie now over the other two?

Ruthie - I like her

Natalia whilst likeable didn't speak very good English and going to her for comment always took about 5 hours or so

I remember liking Krez; but can't remember her too well

Krez!

Krez- You could take her comments seriously because she knew what she was talking about- unlike Ruthie, who I still don't understand why she is judging on DOI

who was natalia ??

i've watched all the series but can't remember her...

She was a Judge in Series 2.

I don't remember Krez. I liked Natalia and her scores had some meaning.

Krez.

Natalia had very valid points too but struggled to say them and wasn't asked to speak much because of that. Ruthie is too inconsistent and she annoys me.

I like them all to be honest, Natalia has some very valid points but just couldn't communicate them very well. Krez was a good consistent judge, does anyone know why she left? And I like Ruthie as this is the first time the 5 have returned - she does have good points but I think during 2008 she should've learnt a few ice skating terms.

Krez!
Always had good constructive criticism but knew credit where credit was due.

I would go with Ruthie

I like Ruthie (she is there to judge performance and not skating technique as such).

She does the same job as Jason but gives constructive critisism instead of making stupid remarks all the time.

I liked Natalia too but she was another skater so then it was 4:1.

I don't remember Krez

And Natalia didn't?

The only reasons Natalia and her partner don't have more medals and titles to their names are Torville and Dean.

Krez

Natalia for me
Then Krez



Finally Ruthie

I can't really remember Krez well, does anyone know anywhere with a picture or video?

I love Ruthie as a performer and she does give good balanced scores and advice. She is probably my favourite televisually, but Krez was probably better in terms of giving ice dancing advice. Natalia was dreadfully difficult to understand, and often brushed over.

Natalia then Krez and lastly Ruthie....

If we have to have a West End performer type judge - I'd rather it was someone like Bonnie who has as many stage credentials as Ruthie does - but can also appreciate the technicalities of what she is looking at!

Or even John Barrowman....

You can see her from 5:15 onwards .

Krez. I'm not keen on Ruthie's pen / finger pointing.

Ruthie

I can't remember Krez very well but i remember thinking she was brilliant and i don't mind Ruthie but if they brought back Krez that would be better.

Krez, Natalia then Ruthie (I don't have a problem with Ruthie).

Watching that clip again - Bonnie should have won DOI.

Thanks for the vid, yes i remember her now, and i think she is my fave.

But my fave judges overall are Karen and Robin

Krez
Natalia
Ruthie

In that order - Natalia would have been up there with Krez, but for the language difficulties.
