Not a fan of this in the air stuff! No skating skills demonstrated at all up there!’
‘#DancingOnIce not into dancing above ice. Change the name of the show.’
‘Can’t really see the point of flying around over the ice, would have been more interesting if they used a prop like they have in previous series’.
‘Well that suited Amber…no skating at all. 10s……….FFS, what a joke. Now tell me that’s not an agenda for her to win. 100% a FIX.’
‘This whole “flying” nonsense is ridiculous! Amber moved about 3 feet on the ice for the whole routine. This is supposed to be the semi final!’
‘This I the most stupidest week of Dancing on ice I’ve ever seen’.
The Dancing On Ice grand final airs on Sunday March 10 at 6.30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
