Adancing: "I Was Hoping" (for now).

Allow it @Deeee Especially for Elliott.

I like the way you think. Whichever one you and Elliott most want to advance through.... I'll go with!

I am advancing "Are You Still Mad." And that's that on that.

Dang i would have advanced that one as that was the song you introduced to me years ago.

I just realized it should be "Hayley Teal."

Ray Quinn I will take on the Ray Quinn write-up as I know Chris has been really busy and this will help him out to focus on his noms sooo I can help out. Let’s discuss Ray Quinn. Ray Quinn is a two-time Dancing on Ice contestant who competed on the 4th series & All-Stars (which was the 9th series) and not only that, but he is a two-time champion. I don’t think we can say about any other celebrity in this game so Ray will always have that. He was partnered with Maria Filippov on both series’. But before his time on this show Ray gained fame being the runner-up on The X Factor U.K. Series 3, where he lost to Leona Lewis. That’s where I know him best from. He was a fine and decent singer but wasn’t really my cup of tea there. Let’s take a look at his Series 4 run. Series 4 run: Week 1: “MMMBop” scoring a 23.5 (4.5/5/4.5/4.5/5) Week 3: “You Make It Real” scoring a 25 (5/5/5/5/5) Week 4: “Smooth Criminal” scoring a 24 (5/5/4/5/5) Week 5: “Canned Heat” scoring a 26.5 (5/5/5.5/5.5/5.5) Week 6: “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now” scoring a 30 (6/6/6/6/6) Week 7: “Rock Around the Clock” scoring a 29.5 (6/6/5.5/6/6) Week 8: “Have You Met Miss Jones?” scoring a 26 (5.5/5/4.5/5.5/5.5) Week 9: “Use Somebody” scoring a 28 (5.5/5.5/5.5/6/5.5) Week 10: “Bailamos” scoring a 28 (5.5/6/5.5/5.5/5.5) Week 11: “Greatest Day” scoring a 30 (6/6/6/6/6) / “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now” scoring a 30 (6/6/6/6/6) Wow he topped the leaderboard every single week in this competition. But danggg these urges seem really strict with their scoring. Unless wait…. are a 6 the highest score a celeb got that series? I was expecting and waiting to see 8/9/10’s but they never came. Ray topped the votes on Week 1 but was 2nd and 3rd for a number of weeks - but he dominated and topped the last 3 weeks and ended up winning. Ooh I see Coleen Nolan topped the votes the weeks he did so she wash is biggest competitor on the popular vote - even though looks like she wasn’t that good. Let’s move onto his Series 9 run. Series 9 (All-Stars) run: Week 1: “Best Song Ever” scoring a 29.5 (7.5/7.5/7/7.5) Week 3: “Blurred Lines” scoring a 35.5 (8.5/9/9/9) Week 4: “Malagueña” scoring a 40 (10/10/10/10) Week 5: “Dead Ringer for Love” against Suzanne & Matt - won all 4 judges votes Week 6: “Jump” scoring a 39.5 (10/9.5/10/10) Week 7: “Lego House” scoring a 40 (10/10/10/10) Week 8: “Counting Stars” scoring a 39.5 (10/10/10/9.5) / “Kiss” scoring a 40 (10/10/10/10) Week 9: “Arthur’s Theme” scoring a 37 (8.5/9.5/10/9) / “Let Her Go” scoring a 40 (10/10/10/10) Week 10: “Surfin’ U.S.A.” scoring a 40 (10/10/10/10) / “Malagueña” scoring a 40 (10/10/10/10) Ray had another amazing run this series here too. He nearly topped the leaderboard every week. He did so every week except for Week 9 where Hayley & Daniel topped the leaderboard. I do feel bad seeing him go this soon as he seems and sounds like an amazing dancer. Lowkey I’m thinking I should have saved him but ugh that’s the downside of me not watching his series he was apart of. And I am pretty certain I would like him more on than on The X Factor U.K. I already feel amazed going through his run. I will close this out with some gifs of Ray from the show and some of his dances (which I did watch some of and they are really good).

No problem. Working on it now!

Oooooohhhh that explains it. I had no idea Ray danced ballroom too. Cool to learn. I have some free time tonight so I can take on the Ray write-up for Chris so he could just focus on his noms.

Shannel has never Bottom 2'd in this? Aww I was pulling for Ongina to make it to F3.

Aw Ben. I really enjoyed him on his season. But yeah as we're all saying...the game is getting harder and harder as we get towards the end as everyone is really good. It's getting hard seeing these contestants go.

Perfect write-up on Victoria there, Sola! Victoria killed it with every performance on X-Factor: Celebrity and it's such a shame she left on the second week when she was seriously one of the best that season. So glad she got a much better and deserved showing in this game.

Olly can't be nominated this round as he was nom'd and saved last round. Lol oops, just saw Sola posted this too.

Just checking in. Thank goodness you all saved Syesha this last round.

One of Ongina or Nina gonna get robbed by Shannel.

You bring up a lot of great points I never really thought of before. And all of the Pros line-up changes they made. Very true on the Louis comments as he would often come and go throughout his time on the show. Also didn't now all of this with Maks/Emma/Kym and all of this insight for S16. Thans for sharing. Whoaa Ray was even better than James Jordan? I don't watch DOI but I thought James was like the best ice dancer due to him being a flipping professional ballroom dancer. So a James Jordan tea here. Interesting insight on him an his seasons. I would like to see his dances sometime as I heard great things about him and I feel I would like him on there over his time on The X Factor.

I saw a pic of Heather there. Didn't see Naya's family pics there. But ugh this is all sooo sad and devastating.
