I think wes is my fav of all the finalists

TinselAngel · 10/03/2019 18:53

Wes is looking less rushed now.

Bubblysqueak · 10/03/2019 18:53

Think that deserves 10 , although I'm at the bottom of my second large glass of wine so even Gemma could look good tonight!

RageAgainstTheVendingMachine · 10/03/2019 18:53

Ah Wes, little pinky injury porn warz.
Blimey, Vicky Giggles had a laugh making his outfit - it looks like it shrank in the wash Grin

TinselAngel · 10/03/2019 18:55

I wish JJ was doing the tights routine again.

RageAgainstTheVendingMachine · 10/03/2019 18:55

James reprising last week could go against him. He could have done week 1, which I loved, Land of a 1000 dances or his Swan Lake. Silly boy.

soupforbrains · 10/03/2019 18:57

Hello everyone. Haven't been on mumsnet for a while. But some of you will know me.

I have been inspired to return because I am unbelievably pissed off.

Are the judges actually on crack? James is far and away the best skater of the three. The choreo on his first routine was shit. Because jane and Chris are not good choreographers for anything more than themselves. But he did it as well as he could.

In his second routine Wes's Russian split was crap. Yet the judges still have him 10s. Utter bollocks.

Crinkle77 · 10/03/2019 18:57

Hey James!!!!!

FuzzyPuffling · 10/03/2019 18:57

I liked that from JJ. It looked accomplished.

jigsawmaniac · 10/03/2019 18:58

Thought James might have done the phantom one where he had the wee stumble...but I did love this one last week, but I'd watched it again about a dozen times through the week! Glad he got all 10's though!

FuzzyPuffling · 10/03/2019 18:59

Blimey soup, you must be pissed off to come and find us! Welcome.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 10/03/2019 18:59

Oh sod, I missed James's second routine whilst troughing pasta bake. Looks like a good one too!

soupforbrains · 10/03/2019 18:59

@RageAgainstTheVendingMachine the reason he won't have gone for week one will be because it technically isn't a strong routine. The later routines have better technical content.

TheSassyAssassin · 10/03/2019 18:59

James is a star! That was A-MAZ-ING & FAB-U-LOUS!!!!!!! Grin

Bless him, he looks in pain, lift more tentative? wincing for him. If someone can chuck him a vote for me Wink am not allowed to vote where I am. Ah James...thought you weren't going to mention it! Six hours of physio. Poor bugger.

JaneJeffer · 10/03/2019 18:59

Alexandra is amazing!!

Raahh · 10/03/2019 18:59

Maybe the black stuff on Holly's dress is emergency strapping for James' shoulder?

He would need to strip off to put it on, of course. Wink

TheSassyAssassin · 10/03/2019 19:00

Waves to Soup!

@FuzzyPuffling haha. I really am.

I always get a bit annoyed with dancing on ice. Because it never goes the way it should based on technical ability and actual skating done. But honestly Wes, whole he's improved a lot is just a set of muscles with reasonable stability. He can't actually do anything.

TinselAngel · 10/03/2019 19:00

Loving "and I was so furious, I had to post on mumsnet!"
soup Grin

RageAgainstTheVendingMachine · 10/03/2019 19:02

Hey soup nice to see you Wine - I thought they could, you know, jazz it up a bit! So same routine but with some bits added. Or they should all do a routine which they had criticism for and have a chance to improve it.

GarethSouthgatesWaistcoat · 10/03/2019 19:05

Yes I would've liked to have seen most improved routine too!

I'm mixing up ice skating with Crufts!

RageAgainstTheVendingMachine · 10/03/2019 19:06

No way can I see a live action Dumbo - if they redo the bit with mum and Dumbo trunks entwined to Baby of mine, I will come out the cinema traumatized again !

TinselAngel · 10/03/2019 19:06

Still fancy John Barrowman.

Whisky2014 · 10/03/2019 19:06

No way I'm watching dumbo
