Dancing on Ice: Running Commentary, Week Ten

Props week, even Jayne and Chris struggle to sparkle with hats - another Country and Western routine? Poor Danny with a hat, poor Gary with another gimmicky song that half the audience won't remember.

Jason's raided some old dear's parlour - she's gonna want those tassles backs for her lamp you know, not to mention her curtains ... and Emma's just come straight from winning Miss Spice Girl 2010.

Garia and Hit Me With Your Rhythym Stick and he's showing a lot more rhythm than before, he's learnt to dance, great routine, got the spin, good use of the canes all round, including some terrific lifts. Score: 22. Jason and Nicky still arguing.

Mattiella have The Look, complete with spare wheels for their chair, all prim and proper office lady to begin with! Gets into character even before the music started, brilliant routine, Daniella so strong in every way - and the chair behaved itself, Daniella's best I'd say. Score: 27.5 the judges agree!

Kieranne have a weeble microphone and The Great Pretender ... loving the Freddie Mercury moustaches in the audience - isn't it amazing what confidence does for you? Very good performance, great speed and totally attacked it. Score: 23.

Hayliel have the umbrella and Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head. She's come down off the (rain?) cloud she was on last week! A lovely performance, very soft compared to last week, beautiful lines as ever. Score: 26.5

Dannie has McFly's It's All ABout You, great song, hope the hat behaves in a Chaplinesque routine - and it's very sweet and goes without a hitch, just a very teensy little bit at the end but we didn't notice. Score: 25.5 I'm shocked, as are they!

Wow, how close? Mattiella have my vote. What is Jason on about - Hokey Pokey? Still dreaming of Dannie with his top off? And check out those bags under Philip's eyes, make up please! Back later ...

... and first couple safe: Mattiella! Yes! Hayliel join them, it's a boy to go ... but it isn't Gary, he's safe! Oooooh, Strictly Irish, you can come out from behind the sofa, lol. Dannie versus Kieranne! All to play for, could be either. But they both put so much into the first performance, Kieron does it again - the hat could do for Dannie now. And I think it just did, what a shame. Oh, hang on - Karen goes for Danny, Nicky for Kieron. Jason - Kieron; Emma - Kieron and so too Robin, it's 4-1. Just when Danny was growing on me again.

  1. I feel bad fro Danny because the hat really did for them in the skate-off, but also a bit pleased because i was rooting for Kieron anyway.

    Means my 3 faves are still there plus Gary who would be so much more endearing if he could just find his personality on the ice.

    Still think it'll be a Hayley victory, but the race for 2nd and 3rd is definitely on! :o)

  2. I'm not completely convinced Hayley will win - I've enjoyed most of hers, but I haven't consistently voted for her!
