Just that - I enjoy this almost as much as Strictly.
It's on at 6.30pm on ITV.

Did you notice that Vanessa was talking him all the way through it?

TillyTrotter Sun 12-Mar-23 19:44:17

Joey was out of his comfort zone and I thought Vanessa was doing all the work?

I cried when Nile and Olivia were skating Bolero. Such emotional music and so beautifully interpreted by them.

Sparklefizz Sun 12-Mar-23 19:46:36

It will be a crime if Joey wins. Chris has just mentioned the mistakes he made in Bolero.

Vanessa Bauer is a brilliant mentor to her Celeb partners.

Ykes, all the pros are fantastic.

The correct result 👍🏻

Definitely the best skaters won tonight. Nile's athleticism did play a large part but he almost looked like a pro tonight. I did enjoy his Bolero.

I reckon Nile could now have a career as a pro skater in the various Dancing on Ice shows.

The athletes who take part in these programmes have an admirable work ethic and it shows. Considering Nile's gymnastics career was ended by a severe neck injury, he was amazingly confident on the ice, whereas at times The Viv and Joey looked rather tentative in doing jumps.
