I don't blame her....it's ace lol
 
Well I'm sorry it's the final tonight......:o gonna miss my Saturday nights snuggled up watching Dancing On Ice.

I want Kieran and melanie to win:D

Come on!!!!!
 
I'm going to miss it too. But I've bought tickets for the tour.

Clare and Andrei to win.
 
Think it was a forgone conclusion that Kyran would win, despite me spending a fortune on voting for Clare.

He has been the most consistent over the whole series whereas she had a dip for a few episodes when she was in the bottom two.
 
We went to see the show today - nah, nah, nah, nah, nah to anyone who loved the tv programme.

It was fabulous - Chris hated every second of it but bless him, he didn't complain because he could see me and Maddie were having a blast.

The format
There were eight celebrities - Stefan Booth, Kyran Brackan, Lisa Scott Lee, Clare Buckfield, Duncan James, Bonnie Langford and the two supposed celebrities who won the Australian version of the show. They all did one dance and then the judges gave them a score. During the interval text numbers were read out and so the audience could vote for their favourite just like the tv prog. Then in the second half they all danced again and then the scores were added up and the top two danced Bolero. For us, it was Bonnie and Kyran who got to dance Bolero and then the judges each chose their own winner and the one with most judges votes was the overall winner - Bonnie won outright.

Interspersed with all that was a few performances by Torvill and Dean and some amazing performances from some of the professional teams.

There were two particularly amazing performances - one was the professional team of Melanie Lambert and Fred Palascsk (or something like that) who did an incredible dance - he kept flinging her in the air and catching her, all done at high speed. The other one was Daniel Whiston who did a solo performance where he did a lot of flying (too hard to explain but incredibly impressive and got a standing ovation).

After watching it a few things struck me - one, the celebrities were ok but the professionals were amazing - two, Torvill and Dean are obviously brilliant but they are ice dancers (as in they competed in ice dance competitions) but the professionals were most definitely 'show' skaters, which is a different discipline and far more dramatic - three, if Maddie wants to be a professional she's possibly too old to start learning!

It was expensive but worth it - although next time I won't bother forking out for a ticket for Chris without checking whether it clashes with any football - his heart was most definitely with Blackburn Rovers.
