Someone's relieved! Samia Ghadie does celebratory dance around hotel lobby after scraping through Dancing On Ice
|
It could have ended in tears for Samia Ghadie on Sunday night when she was placed joint at the bottom of the leader board after failing to impress the judges with her performance.
But the soap star not only managed to stay in the competition but she didn't even have to face competing again in the weekly dance off, which eventually saw a shock departure from Shayne Ward.
And the relief was evident as Samia unwound with her co-stars following the show.
Someone's happy: Samia Ghadie does a celebratory dance following the live Dancing On Ice show on Sunday night after getting through despite her low score
The stars all enjoyed drinks together in the hotel lobby of the Holiday Inn as the proceedings of the night settled in.
Samia certainly seemed the most ecstatic of the contestants as she was seen doing a celebratory dance in front of everyone.
Standing with a large grin on her face she shook her booty while flinging her arms and hair around.
Relief written over her face: The actress couldn't stop smiling as she unwound with her co-stars in the Holiday Inn Hotel following the dance off
She had made a quick change out of her slinky skating outfit into a comfortable ensemble of skinny jeans and a loose top with brown coloured heels.
The 30-year-old still had her hair styled in the big waves from the live show down.
And the actress was clearly having a good time as her fellow contestants celebrated with her.
Happy are we? The soap star only managed to get a below par score of 18 after struggling to perform without partner Sylvain Longchambon
Letting her hair down: The stars all congregated in their hotel lobby for drinks following the live show
Unwinding: Samia enjoyed several drinks as she sat down following the exciting events of the night
She was seen giving comedian Joe Pasquale a big hug as he also lapped up the relief at escaping the skate off once more, despite being placed in joint bottom place with Ghadie.
Samia was later seen sitting down chatting with the other stars as she drank a well deserved beer.
Ghadie had earlier written on her Twitter page, admitting she knew she was in trouble: 'Ok guys that wasn't my best performance but if u wana c me get better pls vote for me n @slongchambon on 6 5051 01 :) thanks! X.'
We're through! Comedian Joe Pasquale also celebrated as he hugged his co-star after joining her in joint bottom place on the leader board
Consolation: Samia hugged Shayne after he left the competition in a surprise skate off between himself and Matt Lapinskas
Girl time: She chatted amongst the girls as they had a gossip off air
The smile says it all: Ghadie cuddled Brianne after the professional ice skater was saved alongside Matt
But it wasn't her night to go as it was Shayne Ward placed in the bottom two against Matt Lapinskas.
The pressure was on this week as contestants had to perform a 30 second solo routine, but Shane clearly failed to impress the voting public, despite picking up his best score yet from the judges.
Clearly emotional, he told host Philip Schofield: 'Matt was always going to come out on top. Thank you guys - you're such a great bunch.'
Down time: After giving it her all and worrying she could be in the skate off, Samia made sure she enjoyed herself before training starts once again
We did it! Samia and Joe, who were placed bottom by the judges, didn't even have to skate again as they avoided the skate off thanks to the public
The judges decided to save Matt despite the fact that he fell on the ice during his save me skate, claiming that he was the better skater overall.
'This is the skate-off that should never have been,' said Karen Barber. 'Neither of you should be here but I'm going to save Matt.'
But despite narrowly being sent home, Matt seemed far from happy as he also celebrated after the live show.
Cuddles all round: Samia's rumoured boyfriend and skating partner Sylvain Longchambon looked on with a smile as Samia worked the room
Contemplative: The 30-year-old made a quick change from her glitzy show outfit to jeans and a loose top
Smile, you're through: Despite the judges saving Matt Lapinskas in the skate off he still looked concerned at the after drinks
Better luck next week: He looked pensive while everyone else had a smile on their faces
He was seen chatting to his dance partner Brianne, but while she looked happy and animated, the actor still looked sombre from the night's events.
Perhaps worried about having to go through the same next week or the reality of not getting enough public votes, he looked at her grimly before finally giving her a hand gesture as they knocked their fists together.
Shayne, meanwhile, took the opportunity to have leaving drinks with the stars as he bowed out of the programme.
Low score: Earlier in the evening she had performed on the ice with Sylvain, only managing to score a low 18 points
