It's official December! It's one of the busiest times for our favourite skating pair as they prepare the new skating celebrities and pro partners for new series of Dancing on Ice.
This week seems to be first week of choreography. Think it was bit of a crazy week it seems by the photo we got from Jayne and Chris at the end of it!
Just getting to the end of a full week of choreography do we look a little strange!
Karen mention about choreography too! "Yesterday saw the first routine choreographed for the new series, so exciting, on my way to work for more of the same, I love my job x" (29/11/11) and "3 routines choreographed for the new series and I think its safe to say its going to be great, more after lunch, everyone is very happy x" (1/12/11)
Chris also sent a pic of the practice studio! Exciting seeing it! We getting closer to the start of the season!!
Practice studio. Loads of steps being created. :)
We got to play a game of WITWAI this week since I last posted. Here is the picture Chris sent...
Turns out the answer was St. Pancras! This was taken as Chris and Jayne travelled up to York to turn on the Christmas lights.
Turning the lights on in York!
Jayne's appearance on Bedtime Stories on Nick Jr was shown this week! Sadly we pretty much missed it!
So Yes as we now in December lots is happening for Jayne and Chris! Lets just hope I can keep up with them!
Hi TnDWorldFans!
I think was a bit too excited that Chris was on Battle of the Blades this week in Canada! I so grateful to the Battle of the Blades twitter (@CBCbattle) and their Social Media Correspondent Maura Grierson (@MauraGrierson) who helped us out with finding out about Chris being on the show. Give these guys are follow as they so great and with the final of the show this weekend I'm sure there is going to interesting stuff happening!!

Elimination time :(
Chris got to meet up again with a skating pair he choreographed for earlier this year. Piper and Paul! Hope they do well in the future! All the best to them.
Chris also tweeted us when he was flying home with his Canadian *$.
Jayne has been a little quite this week but she did share with us an amazing experience she got to have this week. Playing tennis at Wimbledon!! Who would thought that she was watching tennis there a few months ago and now she got to play there.
Tour ticket news is that we have the date of the Manchester tickets. They go on sale on the 23rd of November at 9am (Presale) General Public is on the 25th at 9am. Keep watching and look at the Ticket Master website for more details!
I leave you with this! A beautiful sun rise from Chris.
Hello #TnDWorldFans,
From the title of this post which came from a tweet of Jayne's I must say Can't believe it's November already and from what the part of the tweet November is going to a huge month with lots happening.
So what have our favourite duo been up this week?
Jayne seems to really into her early morning workouts lately. 7 and 7:30am workout this week. Seems things have gone up since her 500 challenge with Matt Evers because she doing 1000 reps! She threw the challenge to Matt to see how he goes. Jayne completed the whole thing in 41 mins! I think that's amazing. Wonder woman!
Jayne got a new car this week and even shared a photo with us. She has been getting some use out of it too and seems to love it.
Chris is still in US this week still recovering from his run off with his bike. Seems that his road rash is getting annoying as he mention he is in the need for some baby mittens so he doesn't pick at the rash. Christmas present idea???
Chris also gave us fans the link to the 2011 DOI tour DVD and it looks spectacular!
Tour DVD comes out on the 14th of November, so very soon!! Exciting stuff. No news by the way on the 2012 tour tickets yet.
As I was writing this Chris popped up on the @TnDWorldFans twitter timeline with the details to a competition run by the Times and the Sun newspaper to get tickets to London 2012. Here is the link he gave to competition: http://team-2012.com/be-there/
Lastly Chris will guest judging this weekend on Canadian skating show Battle of the Blades. Cant wait to see him on it. He was great last year when helped judge the final and this time will be the Semi final. He might get to say Hi to Colin! Colin was the professional skater with Laura Hamilton this year of Dancing on Ice where they came 2nd. Colin is actually working behind the scenes on the show.
