All my votes went to him because he improved so much and he’s such a nice guy xx"@Darkshadows74 chimed: "Well Miles was my winner of this series and he always will be.

He was a MUCH better technical skater than Ryan and has been constantly undermarked this series. Vanessa also deserved her second victory.

But Ryan did skate well tonight so I congratulate him."@Darkshadows74 penned: "Well done. A worthy winner. I thought it would be between Ryan and Greg, as both had never been in a dance off.
