Dancing On Ice next star to be eliminated confirmed after skate-off twist
Dancing On Ice announced the next celebrity to leave the ITV competition on Sunday night after scrapping the skate-off.
The hit skating series returned earlier this month with a slew of new celebrities taking to the ice with their professional partners after weeks of rehearsals. The line-up this year is Ricky Hatton, Adele Roberts, Amber Davies, Claire Sweeney, Eddie the Eagle, Greg Rutherford, Hannah Spearritt, Lou Sanders, Miles Nazaire, Ricky Norwood, Roxy Shahidi and Ryan Thomas.
Former boxer Ricky, 45, was the first to be eliminated alongside professional partner Robin Johnstone last weekend and after a public vote on Sunday night, it was revealed that Hannah, 42, was the next star to go.
At the end of the show, it came down to the S Club 7 star and her skating partner Andy Buchanan against actress Claire Sweeney and her partner Colin Grafton. This week there was no skate-off, and instead the judges' scores and viewers' votes were combined to determine who would be leaving the competition.
