Dancing on Ice begins this Sunday 14th with almost no fanfare compared to Strictly, but almost as enjoyable I find.

I'm looking forward to it.... will you join me? smile

Thank you Sparklefizz.
Just one elimination tonight, it’s the personal choice of Celeb’s what they skate to.

If - like me - you were impressed with Johnny Weir's solo skate during last week's Dancing on Ice, there are some lovely clips on YouTube of his skating at various Olympics where he looks so young .... just a boy really. Fabulous theatrical skating routines. I recommend them.

Yes, much more dangerous than Strictly. Perhaps Lou realises she’s gone as far as she can go.

Now there are equally good skaters left so it will be a tough few weeks for them.

Great to see Johnny's skate, (I assume that was pre-recorded?).

Roll on next week!

TillyTrotter Sun 11-Feb-24 19:57:16

It is potentially so much more dangerous than learning dances in Strictly Come Dancing.

TillyTrotter Sun 11-Feb-24 19:56:17

Lou and Roxy did not seem too sad to be leaving did they?

TillyTrotter Sun 11-Feb-24 19:54:32

Skating artistry from Johnny !!

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 19:46:14

Johnny’s skating. WOW 😮

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 19:43:23

I’ve given Ryan 2 votes. I don’t want him to leave

GrannyGravy13 Sun 11-Feb-24 19:41:41

I still want Eddie to win

TillyTrotter Sun 11-Feb-24 19:36:18

Miles was so confident tonight wasn’t he?
I think Lou is in danger, and Roxy.

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 19:29:31

Gosh! A celeb holding the woman for the headbanger! Madly dangerous! I had to watch through my fingers!!!

TillyTrotter Sun 11-Feb-24 19:21:16

I am feeling nervous watching all of them this week after Ryan’s falls.
I wonder if they are being pushed a bit too far before they are ready?

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 19:07:52

… but I hate the headbanger. It’s not attractive to look at and is terrifying!!

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 19:07:06

Wow! Amber’s skating was fantastic wasn’t it?

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 18:48:14

Hi Gill, yes, lowest marked skater will leave immediately. Then skate off between the next 2 lowest marks.

gillgran Sun 11-Feb-24 18:46:51

I do enjoys musicals.
Yes, Eddie is doing really well.
Shame about the falls for Ryan.

And yes, a double elimination, did they say how it will be decided?

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 18:42:51

Oh no! Ryan fell over twice… but lovely kind comments from new judge Johnny.

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 18:35:09

Phantom of the Opera is my favourite. I loved the music and thought the choreography was great.
Well done Eddie.

Sparklefizz Sun 11-Feb-24 08:34:42

Did they say that tonight would be a double elimination?

Thanks Sparklefizz for bringing me up to date! smile

Sparklefizz Mon 05-Feb-24 13:50:21

Sorry you missed the end of it. Claire and Lou were in the skate off. Lou was so much better than Claire all the time, and fortunately the judges finally acknowledged this, so Claire was the one to leave.

She is probably relieved because of her injuries.

DanniRae Mon 05-Feb-24 08:56:54

I've just realised that I missed the end of Dancing on Ice as I fell asleep. Can someone let me know how it ended? Thanks x

Sparklefizz Sun 04-Feb-24 20:09:15

I always vote for Lou because I think the judges treat her unfairly and as we get 5 free votes, I can spare one for her.

TillyTrotter Sun 04-Feb-24 19:57:00

Jane’s dress reminded me of an Angel in a Nativity.
