He was brilliant to be fair. I thought Dan was great as well. He didn't mess up his partner did.

Have to disagree, think he is incredible wooden and was bottom 2 twice and both times better skaters have gone instead of him, and as for all 10s....nah

I do like Dan and glad he's in the semifinals. He's probably the best skater. Just needs to work on his performance and could get 10s as well.

Have to agree they do seem desperate to keep him in, noway did he deserve 4 10s.

So glad Micaela is in the final. She was brilliant tonight.

[joeysteele]

Well Anton should go in my view.
Doubt he will though.

[joeysteele]

Unbelievable, absolutely.

[Cherie]

Didnt watch, truly believe Anton will win this only because he is mates with Ashley, its a travesty the people who have left before him

That may be what the judges want, but I think the public prefers Sam. He's massively popular.

I honestly have to say it's been more of a mess this year.
The judging is always suspect in these shows now ruined by the judges.

However in an around 90 minute programme including advertisement breaks.
There were from the celebrities pairings, 4 routines.
Of which half were REPEATED in the skate off.
There's was less than 20 minutes of skating from the celebrities supposedly dancing on ice.

The rest was yap,yap, yap from the judges and the professional routines and guests.

It's lost something special this series.
I was pleased when it was brought back years ago but this series it has looked rather jaded
It's actually been harder viewing than enjoyable viewing.

If it's going to continue, it needs a change to stop being about the guests and a chest show for the judges.
With more skating or the programme reduced as to running time.
It a show I've loved and enjoyed.
Somehow not this series however.
It hasn't even stirred up much interaction on here this season either.
Something is going badly wrong in my view with a show that should be compulsive viewing considering all the other tripe on TV at present.

I'm not even sure I'll bother to watch the final.
Which used to be a must do for me.

I just watch the routines and mute everything else.

Good idea.

[millyrose]

I think the winner will be between Sam and Micaela as it is down to the public. Anton is not favoured by the public he's been in the bottom a few times and is kept in by Ashley.
