Dancing on Ice new judge.......

[Pinky166]

I just read that Ruth Henshall is being replaced by Emma Bunton.

I never really warmed to Ruth so I hope Emma will be better.

Can't wait to find out who is going to be on it.

Interesting! I'm not a fan of Ruthie either and I do like Emma Bunton, although I'm not sure what qualifies her to be an ice dancing judge - another Alesha Dixon-type mistake, perhaps

I really wanted to like Ruthie - I've seen her in the West End a couple of times and think she's fab on the stage. But IMO she never came across well on DOI so glad she's being replaced. Was Emma Bunton on DOI - I can't remember..?

Oh good, I wasn't really keen on Ruth, and Emma's lovely

No, she was on Strictly a couple of series ago - she danced with Darren Bennett IIRC.

I thought that when I first read it.

I like her though so hope she fits in well.

We just watched the 2009 Bolero Live Tour DVD the other day, nice warmup for the new season. When does it start? Also, the Royal Variety performance is tomorrow, looking forward to that also.

Emma Bunton There's one reason for watching - although I must admit I don't get this latest trend of getting 'non-expert' judges on these shows.

I think the first bit of your sentence is the reason why they are getting the young attractive (albeit non-expert) women on these types of shows.

I think you're probably right Claire.
