i mean the only reason the blind paralympian on dancing on ice turned out good, because that was a female, and females always have it easier with a male pro partner
Chris has it more difficult, because not knowing where he is, what he does, very difficult to lead in a dance, also very dangerous and too difficult for him to do any lifts, imagine him doing the dirty dancing lift but standing in the wrong place
it is nice to give this a try with a blind person, also having went with celebrities with other disabilities (hearing impaired, amputees) but still comparing him to those, they were still able to know what they were doing, unlike him
i also would've had him paired up with either Katya (due to her experience as a exceptional and clever choreographer) or Lauren (due to her stunning debut year with Krishnan also making something out of nothing) while Dianne tends to be a bit ''basic'' in her choreographer skills, especially visible with flops like Dev, Max
and tbh, i like supporting celebs with disabilities but not because i solely feel sympathy for them to be nice to them
the GOAT disability contestant for me is a tie between Benjamin Piwko & Noah Galloway how much i liked their performances in lets dance and DWTS respectively
