It might be different this year

[Morgan.]

It might be different this year


Very much doubt it

[Lewismacfarlane]

I think Gemma might surprise people

[Nicky91]

I think Gemma might surprise people

[Lewismacfarlane]

[Nicky91]

I heard shes planing on doing the splits

*GC crashing through the ice*

[Lewismacfarlane]

*GC crashing through the ice*

:worry: get that medical team on standby i would advise them

That's rude

[Nicky91]

That's rude

no not intended to be rude :(


i guess i don't have much high hopes for GC to be any good here

[Nicky91]

so if she's good, then it would genuinely surprise me

[Amy Jade]

My 4 faves in one group

:worry:

[Lewismacfarlane]

My 4 faves in one group

:worry:

Which 4

[RileyH]

Ahhhh I'm so perched for this, I really hope they've improved on it from last year bc lbh that was dire

[RileyH]

Also I hope they've ditched save me skates bc we do NOT want another Lemar situation

[arista]

About to start on ITV1HD

[Matthew.]

Jonathan Cheban’s in the audience

[hijaxers]

That's rude

Its true though LT she can't even walk without falling through a hole in the floor !

[arista]

Yes they all want to be there

[arista]

It's Live now

[RileyH]

Jane didn't deserve a 3 or a 6 :shrug:

[Wizard.]

Glad they’ve gotten rid of that tunnel and Jordan Banjo

[RileyH]

Didi is ADORABLE I want her to be my nan

[arista]

At 67 she is fit

[brat.]

they need to shorten the VTs

[Amy Jade]

Frenchy to win!

[Amy Jade]

Frenchy deserves full marks!

[LukeB]

Didi :love:

[Adamw92]

Awww bless her

[Amy Jade]

Jason can **** off!

[Amy Jade]

I love her so much

[Matthew.]

Oh Jason that was just nasty

[LukeB]

Didi is so adorable

[Amy Jade]

His family should disown him for that hairline alone. Scum bag she's almost 70!

[Matthew.]

Didi :love:

[brat.]

this is such a mess

[RileyH]

'My family is going to disown me'
'Ohhhhh no :sad:'

:love:

[Amy Jade]

Everyone vote for our Didi!

[Amy Jade]

Saara :flutter:

[Amy Jade]

Who have I missed? I haven't missed the GC have I?

[Wizard.]

Ashley fuhhhhhh I want that MAN

[Wizard.]

Who have I missed? I haven't missed the GC have I?

No just Jane Danson

[Matthew.]

Who have I missed? I haven't missed the GC have I?

nah it’s only been Jane and Didi so far

[Amy Jade]

Was Jane good?

Want her to do well but Didi has my heart tonight

[RileyH]

Was Jane good?

no

[RileyH]

Well she was ok I guess :p

[Adamw92]

YAS Saara! :love:

[brat.]

saara is definitely going home tonight

[RileyH]

Saara can skate already get her out :mad:

[LukeB]

saara is definitely going home tonight

No one is going home tonight

[RileyH]

I love James

[Morgan.]

saara is definitely going home tonight

For the last time no one is going home tonight :oh: Unless theyvechanged the format idk I'm watching on plus 1 :p

[LukeB]

For the last time no one is going home tonight :oh: Unless theyvechanged the format idk I'm watching on plus 1 :p

They haven’t

[Amy Jade]

saara is definitely going home tonight

Apparently she's really good according to people on twitter who have seen rehersals

[brat.]

No one is going home tonight

ah've never watched the show before what's the format

[Smithy]

Ahhh wig!

[Amy Jade]

She was brilliant!

[Morgan.]

ah've never watched the show before what's the format

One of these six is in the bottom 2 against next weeks bottom skater. They skate off at the end of week 2's Show.

Then from week 3 onwards it's the same format as strictly.

[RileyH]

Wow

[LukeB]

ah've never watched the show before what's the format

The one with the least votes will be in the bottom 2 next week with one of the skaters that are performing next week.

[Wizard.]

Watch Sara get robbed week 3/4

[RileyH]

As IF she was worse than the gal from Corrie

[Amy Jade]

Jayne Twatville still underscoring the women. A bloke could skate on to the ice, shat on the rink and skate off and she would give him at least a 6

[Amy Jade]

Jayne will love him. He's got a dick.

[RileyH]

Ahhh king

[Adamw92]

Jayne will love him. He's got a dick.

Ain’t that the tea.

[Amy Jade]

Hope everyone knows he has ice skated before? He's seemingly making out he's never been on ice before but he definitely has!

[Wizard.]

Ugh piss off he’s gonna win isn’t he

[Black Dagger]

Saara can skate already get her out :mad:

Shut up.

[Black Dagger]

I love James

Of course you do.

[RileyH]

SCREAMING

[brat.]

he's so annoying

[Jordan.]

Mess, as if he was gonna be ****e tho

[RileyH]

Shut up.

Of course you do.

ly2 x

[Black Dagger]

Is this a sick joke?

[RileyH]

Ugh king of skating

[Wizard.]

I mean the choreography suited his skills as it was ballroom and it can’t be ballroom every week but I don’t know how he suddenly went from bambi to Christopher dean

[Mitchell]

Get James out bellend

[Wizard.]

Hoping he gets the Strictly Ashley treatment tops the leaderboard but ends up in the bottom

[Amy Jade]

He has skated before. Someone on Tumblr exposed pics of him ice skating when the contestants were first announced. Thst is why I pointed out he was faking when he needed pushing. He even looked at the camera all sly. He and Ola have ice skated before.

[Adamw92]

Hoping he gets the Strictly Ashley treatment tops the leaderboard but ends up in the bottom

They won’t get rid of him though

[hijaxers]

Get James out bellend

He was bloody good - give the man a chance - he's lost loadsa weight for sure.
The score just shut you up !

[Amy Jade]

Anyway Didi and Saara were both better than him

[Mitchell]

He was bloody good - give the man a chance - he's lost loadsa weight for sure.

May be good, but a bloody arse as per usual

[Mitchell]

Anyway Didi and Saara were both better than him

Tea :love:

[hijaxers]

Anyway Didi and Saara were both better than him

Sorry but thats just rubbish - he has been best skater so far.

[Morgan.]

I don't know how to feel because I'm glad Gemma has pimp slot but, like, she doesn't need it and our Saara does </3

[RileyH]

Wes & Melody legends

[Amy Jade]

Sorry but thats just rubbish - he has been best skater so far.

In your opinion perhaps.

For me Saara and Didi were better.

[hijaxers]

Tea :love:

Tea ! more like gnats milk

[Mitchell]

Ryan and Mark bottom two surely?

[LukeB]

Ryan and Mark bottom two surely?

Whose Ryan?

[Amy Jade]

Can't bare Bryan McFadden. Arrogant knob.

[RileyH]

Melody is gonna flop in the votes isn't she :(

[Amy Jade]

Slay us Melody!

[hijaxers]

Can't bare Bryan McFadden. Arrogant knob.

Same blokes a mega twat.

[Matthew.]

One of my favourite songs :love:

[Morgan.]

Whose Ryan?

Exactly. Better be off 'ome this week I swear

[brat.]

saira trying to cling on :skull:

[hijaxers]

Who's the Kenn Dodd lookalike ?

[Mitchell]

Sorry but thats just rubbish - he has been best skater so far.

Did you vote for Ashley on strictly every week?

[RileyH]

I just realised they showed us that before Gemma :suspect: Wouldn't it have made more sense for them to do it during voting

[Adamw92]

SHOCK. Jayne was impressed by the men :bored:

[Mitchell]

Who's the Kenn Dodd lookalike ?

Wes from Love Island

[Amy Jade]

Of course Jayne had her eyes on the two lads. Rancid hag.

[RileyH]

Wes from Love Island

Leave my Wes alone

[hijaxers]

Did you vote for Ashley on strictly every week?

No i bloody didn't I voted Stacey all the way !

[Mitchell]

Leave my Wes alone

RileyH supporting the random chav, call me shooketh

[Amy Jade]

Who's the Kenn Dodd lookalike ?

Jayne Torvill

[Mitchell]

No i bloody didn't I voted Stacey all the way !

Well don’t moan at people for not liking ‘the best skater’ then :hehe:

[hijaxers]

Wes from Love Island

OMG Love Island - so a complete nobody

[Wizard.]

Jayne Torville

[hijaxers]

Well don’t moan at people for not liking ‘the best skater’ then :hehe:

Not moaning but don't slag em off til you see what they can do. I don't particularly like James either.

[RileyH]

Miss Brianne deserved better

[Amy Jade]

Is that Rolf Harris or the bloke off the KFC bucket?

[hijaxers]

Love Mark Little , he'll give it all he's got.

[Mitchell]

Not moaning but don't slag em off til you see what they can do. I don't particularly like James either.

I saw his performance lol, still want him out for being a bit of an arse

[Wizard.]

Hope he’s out first as I know James won’t and I like the women

[Mitchell]

Hope he’s out first as I know James won’t and I like the women

The women :love:

[Amy Jade]

Boring.

[Adamw92]

Can’t see Mark making it to week 3

[hijaxers]

Not brill but he's fun factor.

[Amy Jade]

Jayne not interested he's not fit.

[Mitchell]

Jayne not interested he's not fit.

Ola <3

[Headie]

Time for the one we've all been waiting for <3

[Daniel.]

Only watching this for Gemma her impact

[Amy Jade]

Please someone gif her waving as she walks down the street!

[Headie]

Gemma getting the most popular pro dancer <3

[Headie]

Not them cutting out the Vengaboys bit and pretending it was Beyonce all along

[Daniel.]

Wow. A dancer. A talent.

[Matthew.]

legend Gemma

[hijaxers]

TRAGIC

[Headie]

Better than James, 10s across the board!

[Amy Jade]

Jayne Torvill QUAKING

[RileyH]

Jorgie Porter did it better

[Headie]

Wow, the first 40 of the series! <3

[Adamw92]

Jorgie Porter did it better

Robbed Queen </3

[hijaxers]

Creepy crawley judges - that was total crap - no physical activity - :joker:

[Amy Jade]

No it wasn't uncomfortable. His hair line is.

[LukeB]

Robbed Queen </3

I feel she was sabotaged tbh by putting her with Sylvain.. it was obvious they won’t get along because she was close friends with jen

[Amy Jade]

Everyone download the app and vote our girlies!

[RileyH]

They're keeping the Save Me skates <\3

[hijaxers]

I feel she was sabotaged tbh by putting her with Sylvain.. it was obvious they won’t get along because she was close friends with jen

You could put her with Christ she'd still be train wreck.

[Adamw92]

I feel she was sabotaged tbh by putting her with Sylvain.. it was obvious they won’t get along because she was close friends with jen

In the All-Star series she was so stitched up, it’s a shame she couldn’t partner with Matt but he was with Suzanne but they could have gave her someone else instead of Sylvain

[Mitchell]

Gemma :love:

[RileyH]

5x Didi :love:

It's clear it's Mark getting the fewest

[Wizard.]

Voted Sara as I’m sure Jane and Gemma will get through

[Adamw92]

x5 votes for Saara :love:

[LukeB]

You could put her with Christ she'd still be train wreck.

No she wouldn’t.... she was one of the best skaters

[Amy Jade]

10 for Didi and 5 for Saara

Hope Gem and Jane are safe

[Adamw92]

5 minutes to vote is just ridiculous

[Amy Jade]

You could put her with Christ she'd still be train wreck.

Jorgie was one of the best skaters they brought back, she was put with Sylvain who had just dumped his fiance who is best friends with Jorgie after having an affair with the bike that some call Samia Ghandi.

[hijaxers]

No she wouldn’t.... she was one of the best skaters

Nah she is total crap , prob have a paddy and piss off anyway.

[joeysteele]

Creepy crawley judges - that was total crap - no physical activity - :joker:

I can't bear her myself.
Far too full of herself.
It was a tedious routine for me.

[LukeB]

Exactly! Its understandable she didn’t get Matt but they were other men who she would have had a better chemistry with. Idk why they always put Sylvain with soap stars

[Headie]

Is this Raign's version??

[hijaxers]

I can't bear her myself.
Far too full of herself.
It was a tedious routine for me.

Yes precisely , why is she even liked ? beyond me.

[Amy Jade]

The right result :clap1:

[RileyH]

I thought miss Karen Barber was back on this show?

As a coach

[Ross.]

Why doesn’t she have a seat near the judges to recreate this

[Ross.]

It’s like they want this show to fail!

[RileyH]

She doesn't deserve one

[mr rochester]

Gemma already won

Quitters never win...

She will quit over something piffling as always...:shrug:

[Mystic Mock]

Is it just me that finds it hard to take James Jordan as a contestant on a dancing/skating show seriously? People moaned about Faye and Ashley on SCD this year being ringers, James is basically Manchester United going up against Accrington Stanley, and yet we're suppose to be in shock that he is good according to the show.:joker:

[Morgan.]

The worst part is that people are like 'ohhhh but he's never skated before so it's fine?!!?!' when they wouldn't listen about Faye and Ashley not doing ballroom before :laugh:

[Cherie]

Yes he knows how to hold his body and his arms etc, but he still had to learn to skate just like the rest of them, so just taking his skating speed and confidence over the ice compared to the rest of them there is no comparison, they all had the same amount of time to learn to skate, so even if their body positions etc are not right their skating should be on par?


You cant compare that to Ashley and Faye as they did not learn a new skill, just honed one they had already

[Vanessa]

James is brilliant, and I've also liked Jane and Sarah. These three will go far. I think I prefer Jane though.

Right but James has also been a trained dancer for 27 years (key word trained) which not only means that he has some of the technincal dancing aspect nailed down but he also has the mindset and routine of a dancer so he will find it much easier and it'll come much more naturally to put in many more hours of training than the others because he's used to it. And that's not something you can get used to in a couple of months, that's his experience.

And that's why their skating isn't on par, people don't pick things up at similar speeds and him having the advantages mentioned makes him much more likely to succeed.

I already said he had the dancing technique nailed down, he still has to master the ability to skate same as the rest of them, its clear to me he applied himself to learning to skate a bit more than some

[Vanessa]

I think James has definitely an advantage. It's like ray quinn all over again :laugh:

[Cherie]

So does Saara as she skated before but no one is talking about her :hee:

[Morgan.]

So does Saara as she skated before but no one is talking about her :hee:

Except she scored an average 20.5 not a 30.5 or whatever it was.

[Lewismacfarlane]

Brian will be good this week I think

[RileyH]

So does Saara as she skated before but no one is talking about her :hee:

Tea :idc:

[Vanessa]

So does Saara as she skated before but no one is talking about her :hee:

Mm, so far she hasn't been as good as James. But I like her and Jane.

[Vanessa]

I'm hoping Richard will be good. I want him in my top three!

[zrc]

James will suffer from peaking too soon.

[Vanessa]

Can't wait week two. Should be a great night :dance:

[Amy Jade]

So does Saara as she skated before but no one is talking about her :hee:

Saara had only basic skating ability, James has been a dancer for 30 years and 100% has ice skated before.

The stumbling around he did at the start was an act.

Yes I doubt you get much opportunity to skate in Finland, Pretty sure he said he never skated before :think:
