I agree with you (I remember T & D once defending a routine that didn't have many tricks in by saying 'it's ice dance - it doesn't have to acrobatics all the time) but to my mind that means more skating - even in hold, than being lifted.

I agree with Jason... the synchrinisity was lovely to watch...

Jason is being too nice tonight

Actually it was Gareth who came closest to dropping the ball, he had to juggle with it during one catch. lol

Awwww I do like him...

I thought it was lovely - when they had the ball between them - a hand each and then the swapped hands - it was all so fluid.   Was perfect for me.

So do I .................a bit more tricky than a hat and we're supposed to be impressed that he had three  I don't get it

Jason's cheap joke about balls was un called for, and he stole that cheap joke from me.

Me too Baz! What's going wrong with us?! 

If he'd had three at once it would have been more impressive.

I agree that the hat prop wasn't that difficult, but gently throwing a ball to your partner and catching it isn't all that tough.

Yes..... in actuality he really only had one prop...!!

Luke and his skipping rope in the danceoff.

 We must be getting soft Xochi

Bye all

Yep, it was a proper attention call.  

I'm sure your delivery would have been differently received Vids!  *passes tissues*

Matt was by far the best for me

Bye for now everyone... see you for the skate off

  my work here is done.

Bye all - see you for the results 

Maybe that's the problem! 

Holy crap! I've just realised that comment was riddled with innuendo!  Apologies to everyone 'cept Vids. 

I thought that she did do a lot more skating tonight Kaffs

Denominator, lowest, and how do you manage to do that?! 

It's a gift.

She did - I just don't think she's as accomplished as the others (with the exception of Luke) when she's skating

Hi again everyone

Right, time for Luke to visit the great boxing ring in the sky...for this competition I mean.

I will only say this once. I agree. 

 Either him or Samia for me..... although I have a feeling that  Beth could be in the skate off

I'd be happy with that.  I don't think there's much between him and Samia, and his attitude gets on my thruppennies.

Nooooooooo...... that's let's her off then!!!

Hands up who'd all be happy to have a groin strain from Sylvain?

The good old.... oh I'm injured excuse!!!

Grrrrrrr! eh? 

... not me..... I'm not keen on him

Yes, they're definitely the bottom two for me, but I enjoy watching her more than him, (and not just 'cos of Silvain)

Mmmmm wonder what's going to happen if she's in the skate off?

Beth's dance partner got a bit over excited by her performance judging by Beth's face.
