    Who’s voting for Gemma? Hope she goes next week!

    Yep. I imagine she's not a fan of actually having to work and put effort in.

    Only caught up last night, and that is so true. She didn't seem one bit happy to be staying in the competition.

    Was it on tonight?

    It was, just finished watching, and ask I can say is thanks be to gawd for small mercies.

    Thought Jason was very mean in his comments giving his decision though, no need to be quite so pointed.

    Even Gemma managed to be quite restrained and magnanimous in her comments throughout the show tonight (apart from the "I may not be the best skater but I've come out every week and given entertainment" - eh, not to me you haven't, love).

    As much as he annoys me, fair play to Brian doing that routine with an injured back, I could feel mine twanging just watching him :eek:

    I was the same, don't know how they 'push through' when in pain. I wouldn't last a minute! I almost felt sorry for him when he dropped his partner (Brandi??). Two going next week, competition is hotting up nicely.

    The right 2 went tonight and Wes and James have the final to themselves

    Gemma obviously dominating this chat as well - not a peep out of anyone since she left :rolleyes: :D


    I'm assuming that Wes and Vanessa have got it together off the ice as well as on the ice at this stage? Hard to see past him for the title tbh. But when he did that splits jump all I could think of was that Ray fella a few years back - Jason was right, do it properly or don't do it at all.



    I'd love to know how much weight Bryan has lost since this started! He's an absolutely shadow of his former self! And has come on in leaps and bounds to be fair, and is not half as painful now that he's letting his skating do the talking.


    Saara I still can't take to - something about her personality just grates on me, and her solo skate was poor compared to even Bryan's...


    James coming up now, I'm presuming he'll be brilliant as always.

    Hah, as I suspected!


    Did I not see him half stumble as he skated backwards in the solo bit, or did I imagine that? Whether that was actually worth deducting .5 or not I'm not sure (clearly not!)


    I know everyone gives him a hard time over being a dancer, but he couldn't skate at all when this started and by golly he can now, he has easily the best speed over the ice when he's solo of the lot of them. He wouldn't be my favourite by a long shot but he's taken to skating like the proverbial duck.

    Call me cynical, but I always thought he was faking the bad skating in the early rounds. They probably wanted someone like him in it so they could get out the 10s ala Strictly.

    Yep Im not a fan of our Brian but that was hard. And his parents had over for the weekend to see him. Did she fall or was it him - missed the start of the bit?

    It looked like it was all him to be fair.

    agreed, but I was fairly confident she wouldn't get through to the final 2 (and I was right!)

    Oh god I don't know who was better

    I didn't pay proper attention to either but I think James is the better of the two. Their synchronicity is incredible.

    Anyone watching the launch show? (Is there another thread that I've missed??)

    Nearly missed it, but catching it on +1.

    Looks like a cracking lineup this year - the last one, I think :(:(

    Wouldn't it not be harder for her to skate and dance with her disabilities

    I'd have said practically impossible! Not to mention the stress on the poor guide dog, who looks like she'll need counselling after this :eek:


    Gemma Collins irritation was much relieved by the demented twitching of Candice sitting beside her in the audience, clearly being driving over the edge by the histrioncs :D
