Dancing on Ice 2023.

[Elderflower14]

Apologies if there is another thread but starting one for the beginning of the show!!

Poor Joey, something went very wrong there and it threw the rest of it out.

Very poor standard tonight IMO. Not a patch on finals of years gone by....

I do think Nile and Olivia's Chitty was the best routine of the series and that was ages ago.

I've only seen from Nile doing the bolero. Why's there only two of them doing it?

Good for Joey though, hes a geezer from Essex, not a competitive gymnast with core strength, flexibility and a professional memory for routines.

Only 2 get to do the bolero.

They always ditch one finalist before the Bolero - in this case The Viv got the fewest votes. They used to do that in the Strictly final before the last dance too.

They always stop before the bolero and the lowest one with votes goes out.

Padding

No surprise there..

Phew. I'd have been raging if Joey had won.

I would like Nile to win. By far the best.

I prefer James skating than Viv.

Cannot thole JE.

I think that was the right result

Right result I think. Thanks for the company since January everyone!

Me too. I was worried it was going to be another 'Joe Swash beating Perrie' moment. So pleased for Nile, he was so much better than Joey.

I'm an hour behind as watching on +1 but I've been saying the same thing for weeks. The choreography has been dreadful and so boring. Like you say none if the lifts, tricks and jumps they used to have. I wonder if they have had to dial down the danger for insurance purposes or something. Just so lacklustre and haven't had that wow moment with any of the routines.

The right result. Not for me, but for the show!

I think the right person won.

So glad Viv didn’t win. I thought he might well manage it not for being a good skater but just for some woke points.

Think the right person won, none of them thrilled me though

vanessa shouting the moves at Joey was quite strange

i could have watch a full show of Brendan and Regan

Anyone else spot that whilst Holly and Phil introduced Brendan and Regan onto the ice, they were sat right behind them ?!

Right winner. But I was mesmerised by Oti's boobs more than the skating!

Was it something to do with insurance why the male celebs barely did any lifting this time?

I'm watching on catch up now and have just seen that! Appreciate it didn't have the 'live' in the top corner but still ridiculous!

If they ditched one, what happened to Mollie? I assumed she'd gone leaving three for the bolero.
