Just seen the Top 100 album chart published yesterday and surprised Gareth is not in it. I know there was very little publicity for the album but thought it might at least chart given that album sales are so low and it does not take much to get into the top 100 I was surprised how little Gareth did to promote the album (no album signings for example) and even though he did quite a few interviews it seemed to get a little lost with the big reunion and dancing on ice tour promotion. Shame really that more people were not aware that the album is out as I thought it could do quite well with the profile Gareth as at the moment

Sad to see Gareth but to have finished 7th the All Stars series was more than he could have imagined when it started. The skate off was closer than the judged made out but I think that having the winners in the final six was always want the producers wanted so Gareth stood no chance even though Sam has been in the skate off three times and reading a few comments some people preferred Gareth routine. It will be interesting to see the results of the viewers votes after the series is finished to see how Gareth did in the public vote and how close he came to staying in I do think it is the right time for Gareth to leave and he has left on a high with his best performances and lots of positive comments from people who have enjoyed his routines and appreciated the progress he has made

By chance managed to see the interview and they all came across well and they really seemed to enjoying themselves. Interesting that the questions of them working together after the tour came back and a couple were keen mentioning possibly recording new material but Gareth seemed to try and downplay it without ruling it out. I suspect Gareth with his plans for a solo album and maybe a return to musicals will be reluctant to commit full time to the group unless there is a real demand for them to continue and at this stage nobody knows. No disrespect to the others but Gareth is probably is the only one of the group who has a lot of options to him for future work and does not need to continue with band so I can understand him wanting to be caution about future plans. Looking forward to series.

Well done to Gareth (and everyone who voted) It looks like Gareth will be up against Bonnie as they are similar in terms of skating skills. From what I remember they dance to the same song at the same time and then the judges decide who was best. I would say it is close between the two of them with Gareth the better skater and Bonnie the better dancer. Would be nice if Gareth won and we could save our calls for a week

Enjoyable routine and Gareth certainly put in a good performance. Overall score was probably fair enough but Jason continues to be unfair in his mark. Gareth was ahead of Bonnie which was a bonus as well and gives Gareth a little more chance of staying in Have put in my votes - good luck Gareth!

Have voted a few times Jason marks were shocking but might help Gareth get a few extra votes as people seem to be shocked by his score. I did feel that Gareth 's routine did not have the normal sparkle in the performance that he normally gives and wondered if he was because he was focussing so much on getting the tricks right

Todd staying in means Gareth won't be last next week and gives him a little extra chance of staying in. They have not yet said if they will continue with public only votes or a combined judges/public vote to decide the skate off

Well done everyone Great to see that he finished top four and we get to see him again in a couple of weeks time

I was really impressed with Gareth's dance. I thought it was unfair he was last behind Joe but as the judges marks don't count I suppose it does not matter too much I have put in my votes for Gareth and I hope it will help but not feeling too confident at the moment.

It would appear that the first seven skaters on Sunday are: Ray Kyran Gareth Joe Jorgie Bonny Hayley There may be good news that in the first week the public vote only will decide who goes out. The person with the lowest public vote goes out straight away and the 2nd and 3rd least votes have a skate off and judges decide. If we get in our votes for Gareth hopefully we can get him into the first four certainly he has a better chance than if the judges scores were being taken into account.

They have not announced the seven celebs doing a routine on Sunday but hoping Gareth is on the second week as it would give him more time to prepare. I would be slightly surprised if Gareth was doing his first routine on Sunday given that he said he had taken a week and a half off the ice prior to Monday. It seems odd to do that if was going to do his first routine.on the Sunday. .Obviously he will be on the first show for the introductions and I would guess there is an opening routine with T&D which he will be part of. Getting through the first week with two going out will be very tough as Gareth will be near the bottom of the markings after the judges such is the standard of skaters and he will really need public support to have any chance of staying. Interestingly we will see the results of the public votes after the series is finished which did not happen when Gareth took part the first time (I would have loved to know how Gareth did especially in the semi final when we went out but as he was never in the bottom two think he was near the top most weeks)

Good news now up to 5th just ahead of Suzanne now. That's not bad for one afternoon

Tellymix have been running a Poll for people for vote for their favourite celebrity on the all stars series. Link http://tellymix.co.uk/reality-tv/dancing-on-ice/170083-poll-dancing-on-ice-2014-celebrities-whos-your-favourite.html Gareth is currently joint 8th

Only 7 celebs taking part in the first show with the remaining seven on the second show. They have not yet said who is on what show but as Gareth is in Panto until the day before the first show he may be on the second show to give him a bit more time to prepare

No doubt the inclusion of Dane was to ensure that their affairs with Jordan will be raised. It is the nature of the show to get the singers to reflect back on their careers high and lows hopefully with some sort of balance but you are to a large extent in the hands of the producers and the way they edit the show . Gareth is however very careful about what his says about his private life and I doubt he will say anything too revealing . As others have said Gareth has no nasty side to him and always come across well so it will be difficult for ITV not to show him a good light. Noticed tweets from the group being sent looks like they are looking forward to getting together and they will certainly have fun!, Dane has tweeted Gareth and asked him be careful on Dancing on Ice
