Dancing On Ice chaos as Ricky Hatton and Claire Sweeney are issued ‘urgent warning’ to rush to medics

DANCING On Ice stars Ricky Hatton and Claire Sweeney have been given an "urgent warning" to seek medical attention.

It's after the ice rink they train at was shut down amid fears of a carbon monoxide leak.

Gas supplier Cadent was rushed out to Planet Ice in Widnes, Merseyside where the show contestants are learning to skate.

The rink was closed after "a number of people reported feeling unwell".

Ricky has shared updates from the ice ahead of the show launch in January, having previously trained at the site.

He wrote on Instagram: "Another day on the ice today up in Widnes. Slowly getting there bit by bit."

Ice hockey team played a match against Solihull Barons at the rink on Saturday.

Posting on X, formerly known as Twitter, ice hockey team Widnes Wild - who played a match there on Saturday - said: "We're aware of several people reporting varying levels of illness after attending our game on Saturday.

"We have reported these to Planet Ice and will update everyone once we have received a response.

"Anyone continuing to feel unwell should seek medical advice."

A Cadent spokesman said: "As the gas emergency service, we responded to reports of a possible carbon monoxide incident at the ice rink venue.

"We were able to establish that the local gas network is sound and did not contribute to what has happened.

"The matter is now being looked into by environmental health teams."
