Another added: "Not sure the kids were impressed with half naked men gyrating.";

A third viewer complained: "What on Earth has happened to Sunday evening TV? Where's Songs of Praise?"

A fourth questioned: "Magic Mike is now wholesome family viewing? What the f**k happened there?"

However, some people watching at home saw the funny side of the situation.

One mum shared: "Sat watching Dancing on Ice with the kids and The Magic Mike cast appear. Not really family appropriate!! I had to do pretend outrage! I'll rewind it later."

Another agreed: "Well that bit of Magic Mike Live has made my Sunday night better! Looking up tickets to the show."

Dancing On Ice stars slam judges for ‘bending rules’ for Amber Davies after controversial dance off

The Dancing On Ice judges also came under fire from fans after Amber Davies survived the skate off with Eddie "the Eagle" Edwards.

One pointed out that Olympic skater Johnny Weir outright said he was voting for the Love Island star because she had a better chance in the final.

His high score was one of the reasons why she was saved.

The guest judge has been filling in for Ashley Banjo over the past few weeks.

Ashley will be away until the semi-final due to prior touring commitments with his group Diversity.
