Dancing on Ice (UK, ITV) - Winter 2013

[UMBS Go Blue]

Noticed that this train wreck of a show isn't even being discussed on FSU. Seriously, peeps!

From

Hollywood star Pamela Anderson suffered a stumble and a wardrobe
malfunction as she became the first celebrity to be axed from Dancing on
Ice.

The former Baywatch star and Playboy model, 45, was sent crashing out on the
first night of the ITV competition, losing a dance off against television
funnyman Keith Chegwin after problems with her dress.

A stunned looking Anderson said afterwards she was sad to have been knocked
out, but added: "I just stumbled, my dress...my boobs fell out, it happens."

Here's Pamela's skate:

Olympic gymnast Beth Tweddle is the only name I recognize (besides Pamela A., of course ).

Too bad they didn't pair up Oona King with George Galloway.

Robin Cousins, Karen Barber, and Torvill/Dean are among the show's hosts/judges too.

This show should be in the Trash Can
Why can't T/D use their talents to teach PROPER skaters
The commentators descriptions of the moves make me
I do like Matt Evers though

This has got to be one of the mortifying skating performances I have ever seen...that dress is just major train wreck waiting to happen.
Feel really sorry for Pammy, and the costume designer.

Beth Tweddle and her partner won.


Can't believe T&D let their bolero be 'whored' out like this. Other contestants used it as well.

I did enjoy T/D performance with the drums at the beginning.
I believe there's no DOI Tour this year anyone know why ?
I know I always say this but I wish T/D would have been coaches like Krylova Zhulin Zueva etc .Seems they enjoy skating too much and £££ .
It would be a thrill to see them at worlds this coming week with their own teams .

The point of every final is that the final two to get to skate THE* Bolero. They've done it for the last, what, 7 years now, they have well and truly gotten their money's worth whoring this out!

*the panel's constant reference to THE Bolero is soooooooooo grating.

I am pleased that Beth won. IMO she was the better skater. The judges blatant favouritism towards Matt and their disgusting reaction to her winning spoilt my enjoyment of the show. I was especially surprised at the behaviour of Robin Cousins, I expected better from him.

After seeing Chris's choreography efforts every week on DOI, I'm glad he's not coaching. Obviously the couples on DOI are far more limited in what they can do, but my god everything he produces on that show, for the couples, the pro skaters, his routines with Jayne feel like they've been done 20 times over & weren't even that good the first time round. I would love to see Robin stepping away from the judging panel and back into the rink as a coach though.

What was their reaction what did they do /say ?Thanks.
Tony Gubba died yesterday aged 69 .Original commentater on DOI .Iwondered why Simon Reed was doing it.

If some of you are "offended" by T and D, why do you watch?

[Rosier Juleps]

IMO they had consistently over marked Matt and under marked Beth throughout the series. when she was announced the winner they were slow to applaud and looked quite disappointed. Robin later tweeted this message-
I take nothing away from Beth she really upped her game and was great. But for me Matt and Bri gave three of the top performances in ANY DOI.
Brianne (matts pro dancer tweeted-
Just want everyone to know that @mattylapinskas is the true winner in my eyes. He's the BEST celeb we've ever had!!! I love you bubba x
Sad news about Tony Gubba RIP

I agree about the comments about T & D choreography.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlAqxir0YKw see 0.55 and 2.35 for judges reaction.

Yes I see now.They all look very disinterested .They can't mask how they are feeling

Who said they were offended by T&D

[danceronice]

So, Pam couldn't cut it (TWICE) on DWTS, so she gave skating a go?
