Poor, poor, poor Lisa.
The GBP just don't know what they're missing out on!

Poor, poor, poor Lisa. The GBP just don't know what they're missing out on! They chose well. I guess cellulite and desperation aren't in vogue this year.

If Emily goes tonight it won't be due to the skating but Daniel sporting that chest full of ginger hair! Who knew? More funny is that he is as camp as anything but when he speaks he has quite a deep voice. Poor Lisa. I felt her time was up but she did well to get this far considering her lack of fanbase.

Poor, poor, poor Lisa. The GBP just don't know what they're missing out on! She'll be shaving her head within the week, you mark my words. Given that LSL has gone and my beloved Emily insists on fucking up, I'd like Kyran to win. As long as it's not Lee, though, I don't really care.

Wondered what you were all talking about for a min, thought I'd stepped back in time! Watching the 2nd series here in the UK... so now that one's sorted, wanna know who wins in the 1st series?!

Ok, ok, where did you guys come from? I'm sure there were only posts from the USA a second ago!

I must say, I think I'd be happy with a sore elbow as the price for having Andrei on top of me!

I see Duncan James got eliminated. He should have revived that comedy hairstyle he had from a few weeks ago, it might have helped get him the sympathy vote if nothing else.

Good for Kyran. He's a very sweet guy, and Duncan wasn't as good as him, try as he might. I'm so glad Clare didn't win, her partner was smug as.

I dunno, to me this felt more like another example of sports "personalities" having a monopoly on winning these type of contests because they're National Heroes and all that, and generally beating someone who's actually far better at it than they are.

I don't even know who Kyran is, though, apart from the fact I know he probably did something with rugby, but I still wanted him to win, simply because he's always come off as really nice and he's clearly worked his arse off to get to the final. I completely adore Duncan, but knew he wasn't as good as Kyran and would likely go out in third place, and Clare just pisses me off for some reason. There's an underlying smugness to her pairing.

Kyran won it for me the moment he let loose the body popping robot the weekend before. Fantastic

I take heart from the fact that the posts on this thread really dried up as soon as Lisa went out. I think, for many people, she was the main talking point and reason for watching. She was for me, at least.
Kyran winning is a bit blah really. It was pretty obvious from about halfway, and sportsmen win all these things now, almost by default.

I went to see Dancing on Ice Live last night. Don't judge me.
Contestants were Kyran, Clare, Duncan, Lisa, Stefan (yay!), Bonnie (boo!) and Lara and Jake, both very beautiful models from the Australian show. Each couple did one of their routines from the series, the judges (minus insane Russian woman, and plus a local radio DJ) did judging, and then they invite the audience to text their votes in.
Kyran and Bonnie were the top two on the leaderboard, and got to skate the Bolero. Bonnie totally fucked up by FALLING OVER, and yet Nicky and Jason still voted for her to win. It was such a fix.
Other incidents of note - Kyran and Mel getting straight sixes for their Billie Jean routine; Stefan getting his tits out; Jason flirting with Jake the pretty Aussie model; Jayne Torvill's dress strap snapping while she skated Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend, and my sister and I having to watch the routine through our fingers for fear there would be slippage.

Well, as this is about to crank up again, hot off the Wikipedia presses, and to be confirmed next week -
Contestants: - Gareth Gates - Michael Underwood - Greg Rusedski - Low-rent reality TV whore Chris Fountain - Tim Vincent - Steve Backley - Suzanne Shaw - Samantha Mumba - Natalie Pinkham - Aggie MacKenzie - Sarah Greene - Scott Mills
I'm not sure how accurate that line-up will prove.
However, whomsoever is competing, there'll be Bitch-tastic coverage over at Bitching on Ice - bitchingonice.blogspot.com

Now, I saw this list about a week ago, and wasn't going to comment until they were actually confirmed. I thought it was a bit odd, given that there's one more man than woman, but we'll see.
I also happened across the 'speculation' thread over on digitalspy, where some posters are actually reporting star spots at ice rinks. Hilarious.
After the success of the Strictly sweepstake, I am happy to run one for this once it gets going, if there is interest of course.

There are a lot of SPORTSMEN to dance and skate like FELLAS and go on JOURNEYS.
Oh, hang on, wrong show. (Except the journey bit, every show has that)

Greg Rusedski! Sarah Greene! Samantha Mumba!
The thought of Scott Mills in a spangly suit is not a pleasant one.

That list is quite accurate

Oh can I have the lovely Tim for sweepstake then? Isn't he doing alright in America now?

If we're choosing sweepies, I want Sarah Greene. Greeno is a love, and thinks Nutri-Grain bars are shit.

Oh, I wanted Sarah Greene! I still have that Blue Peter annual where she is dressed up like Marie Lloyd, and looks like Kylie in her "hair hat" phase.

Steve Backley used to look like an ex of mine. (I don't know what he looks like now.) ((Ex or SB)) Can I have him as a sweepy, for old times sake?

Post by pauliepoos on Dec 29, 2007 23:34:38 GMT
I'll have Gareth Gates, please. After the sweepstake failures of Geri Meaden Badger, Toothy Chris and Willie Thorne, and then coming so close with Rhydian, I want someone who has a chance at least of winning.
I never liked Steve Backley that much, I always prefered Mick Hill.

I'd like Greg Rusedski. He's a sportsman, after all.
