Meanwhile favourite to win, soap star Ryan Thomas has fallen twice while skating on Dancing On Ice, but says he felt better because of the audience cheering him on.

Ryan said: "I’ve not hurt myself, I just hope my kids aren’t watching this one because it’s so embarrassing."

At the other end of the leaderboard, two celebrities achieved new series high scores.

Former Love Island contestant Amber Davies has dressed up in a school costume as she performed to Naughty from Roald Dahl's Matilda The Musical on Dancing On Ice.

Professional Simon Proulx-Senecal, putting Davies in a headbanger, clinched them 35.5 points, the highest of the series so far.

Davies said that she had an "incredible tough week" and had been "terrified" to take to the ice.

Made In Chelsea star Miles Nazaire also received the highest score of the series so far, with his topless performance to Cum On Feel The Noize by Slade.

Judge Christopher Dean praised the "enthusiasm you give when you're performing" after Nazaire skated with partner Vanessa Bauer and got 35.5 points.
