Dancing On Ice 2008: Steve Backley Leaves The Rink
Steve Backley has faced his fourth skate off tonight, and finally his luck ran out when he found himself up against Coronation Street actress Zaraah Abrahams.
It was no surprise that all the judges chose to save Zaraah. Steve has been skating on thin ice (did you like what I did there?) for weeks now.
Jason Gardiner said: “This is one Boomerang that’s not coming back.”
On hearing the news, Steve said: “I’m disappointed to go and there is no getting away from that. I am gutted. Having the prosthetic hip is a big deal, my stumbling block is getting over that but I am delighted to have got this far. To have worked with all these people, Chris and Jayne as well and even the judges.”
The worst part of the whole show was watching Steve’s young daughter in floods of tears when she heard her dad had lost. It almost had me blubbing into my wad of toilet roll!

I think he did really well, admittedly he was not the best but he was improving every week and was thoroughly enjoying himself. I do not think he was the worst Greg should have been in the bottom two and went, but while Jason is so horrible to him especially threatening to leave viewers will keep him in.
