Hair raising! Jason Gardiner reveals new £12,000 hair transplant as Laura Hamilton scores perfect 10s on Dancing On Ice final

By JODY THOMPSON

Hair today: The previously bald Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner revealed the results of his £12,000 hair transplant live on the show's grand final tonight


It's a secret he'd literally been keeping under his hat - but tonight Dancing On Ice's acid-tongued judge Jason Gardiner unveiled his new hair transplant live during the grand final.

The 39-year-old Australian was so bowled over by children's TV presenter Laura Hamilton's performance on the rink that he doffed his trilby to her - and revealed the layer of dark brown growth on his previously shiny pate.

Jason flashed the fuzz after Laura and partner Colin Ratushniak landed straight 10s from all three judges for their routine to the Pointer Sisters' I'm So Excited.


Hats off: The judge decided to literally take his hat off in salute to Laura Hamilton's perfect 10s after her routine in the grand final to The Pointer Sisters I'm So Excited

As he shocked the crowd with his unveiling, he said: 'Laura I have to say I take my hat off to you - incredible! You have just proven why you are in this competition. You just took it to another level.'


Before: Jason, pictured here in January, had an almost entirely bald head before undergoing his hair transplant


Surprised co-host Holly Willoughby gasped afterwards: 'I'm almost sepeechless about what was under the hat!'

It's understood Jason spent £12,000 on the procedure where follicles are taken from the back of the head on embedded into the crown.

It had been rumoured before the final that the judge would be unveiling his thatch on the show, but that was denied by host Phillip Schofield at the start.


Hair we go: Jason Gardiner was so impressed with Laura that he revealed his new hair transplant in her honour - but the public voted for Sam


The remaining two couples, Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt and Laura and Colin were then left to battle it out and skate the routine made famous by the show's chief coaches, Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean - the legendary Bolero.

Judges votes no longer counted - and it was solely down to the public to decided who would be the Dancing On Ice 2011 champion - and they decided on Sam, despite Laura's perfect 10s.

Sam Attwater wins Dancing On Ice 2011

By JODY THOMPSON

Winner: Former EastEnders star Sam Attwater lifted the Dancing On Ice 2011 trophy after skating a 'passionate' Bolero with partner Brianne Delcourt


Former EastEnders star Sam Attwater was crowned the Dancing On Ice 2011 champion after one of the tightest grand finals the show has ever seen

The 24-year-actor won the public's hearts with his 'passionate' version of show star's Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean's Bolero - despite accidentally leaving his hand on her breast at the end as they sprawled on the ice.

Sam gushed about Brianne, 29, too as he lifted the winner's trophy, saying: 'I've had the time of my life. I've made a friend for life and I wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for Brianne.'


High five: The pair were thrilled to be crowned champions - and Sam dedicated his win to Brianne, who he said would be a 'friend for life'


The pair won through with their consistently good skating since the show started in January and Sam had been the bookies' favourite since day one.

However, they had caused controversy earlier in the show's run over accusations they had tried to manipulate viewers with a 'faux-mance' between themselves.

In February, they had told show host Phillip Schofield they were 'an item' as they conducted a series of photoshoots in glossy magazines, even posing in bed with just their ice skates and giving quotes saying they ‘loved each other to bits’ and had met each other’s parents.

'Nervous wreck' Chloe Madeley fears she'll crack under pressure in Dancing On Ice final

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Finalists: Laura Hamilton, Sam Attwater and Cloe Madeley will battle it out in the Dancing On Ice final tomorrow night


Chloe Madeley might have made it to the grand finals but the Dancing On Ice star is worried she’ll crack under pressure.

The daughter of TV’s Richard and Judy is said to be a ‘nervous wreck’ over tomorrow’s final and fears she’ll mess up the lift which she hopes to bring her victory.

The 24-year-old is hoping to dazzle judges on the ITV1 show with a sexy Dirty Dancing routine.


Impressive moves: Chloe impressed earlier in the series with dance moves like these ones


Chloe and her dance partner Michael Zenezini will try to recreate the lift that Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey made famous in the 1987 hit film.

But if it goes wrong, her dream of winning the competition will be shattered and a show source says she’s ‘really scared’.


Injuries: Sam Attwater crashed into the ice during rehearsals earlier in the week, leaving his with sprained ribs and slashed knuckle


The former EastEnders star crashed into the ice during rehearsals earlier in the week, leaving his with sprained ribs and slashed knuckles.

‘I was doing a lift where I’m lifting two girls and then I just went and the way I landed I tried to save both the girls and went down and sprained my ribs and got a blade across my knuckles,’ he said.

But despite his fall, Sam is still the bookies’ favourite to win the dance-off against Chloe and Laura Hamilton.

Sam, 24, is set to dance to Footloose, while 28-year-old Laura is planning to shine while dancing to Madonna’s Express Yourself.

But children’s TV presenter Laura is also said to be scared that her fan base isn’t strong enough

She said: ‘Of course I was worried the fact not many people knew me could go against me.

‘I always knew from week one when it was completely down to the public vote that we’d struggle to make it through.



Worried: TV presenter Laura is also said to be scared that her fan base isn't strong enough to win


‘You don’t know how the public have taken to you – that’s why we didn’t expect to get this far.’

Meanwhile, Chloe said of her routine: ‘I have lots of boys in my showcase and lots of lifts.

‘There’s pressure from all these men telling me to get it right. I don’t want to injure anyone and I find it quite overwhelming.’

The Dancing On Ice final kicks off tomorrow at 7:40pm on ITV1

Dancing On Ice 2011: Johnson Beharry is voted off as Chloe Madeley, Laura Hamilton and Sam Attwater go through to the grand final

Emotional exit: Johnson Beharry VC and partner Jodeyne Higgins were voted off Dancing On Ice on the semi-final


Johnson Beharry VC missed out on a place in the Dancing On Ice final tonight, after facing Chloe Madeley in the skate-off.

The Victoria Cross hero was voted off the programme in the semi-final after the three judges unanimously decided to save Chloe.

But ever-cheery Johnson managed to take the news well, telling viewers: 'There's no need to be sad, I had loads of fun - the time of my life.'


Unanimous: All the judges decided to save Chloe Madeley and Michael Zenezini after the skate-off


After revealing the public vote, hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby announced that Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt had made it through to next week's final, before announcing they would be joined by Laura Hamilton and Colin Ratushniak.

That left Chloe Madeley and Michael Zenezini and Johnson Beharry VC and partner Jodeyne Higgins to perform in the skate-off.

Chloe and Michael were first up, and while the routine was perhaps slightly more hesitant, the pair got through without repeating the tumble they had earlier managed during the routine.


Green with envy: Johnson and Jodeyne performed to Noah and the Whale's Life Goes On


A clearly emotional Jodeyne said after the performance: 'Every moment I have been out of the ice with this man has been truly inspirational.'

But it was a unanimous decision from the judges, who all voted for Chloe to get through to the final next week.

Earlier in the show, the skaters were shown being told by judge Robin Cousins that they would have to complete a solo routine after finishing their first dance.

The celebrities were also told both of the routines would be given marks by the judges, giving them the chance to earn a maximum of 60 points.


Chloe and Michael were first up on the semi-final week, with Chloe admitting she was stunned to have made it so far in the competition.


As well as attempting a knee slide, Chloe and Michael tried their most dangerous lift to date, the 'Roman Candle' lift which sees Chloe place her skates on Michael's chest and lean forward.

And after the dress rehearsal for the show, Chloe was left in tears after finding the lift to difficult to complete, insisting: 'This is the most ridiculous thing we have done to date'.

Jeff Brazier misses out on a place in Dancing On Ice semi-final after losing skate-off with Sam Attwater

By EMILY SHERIDAN

Farewell: TV presenter Jeff Brazier and Isabelle Gauthier were voted off Dancing On Ice - despite their impressive routine with chairs and a table


Jeff Brazier and partner Isabelle Gauthier missed out on a place in the Dancing On Ice semi-final after they were voted off the show last night.

The TV presenter was sent packing by the judges after losing a skate-off with Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt.

The father-of-two took the news graciously after surviving the skate-off twice previously, saying: 'I'm grateful to have the opp and to have gotten so far.'

The theme was prop week with doo-wop band The Overtones providing live music to every dance.

Attwater, 24, and Canadian professional Delcourt, 29, were the first to skate to Frankie Valli And The Four Seasons' Beggin', receiving a 24.5.

The pair danced with a bar stool, microphone stand and hat and managed a tricky split lift, which had involved Sam getting cut on his leg several times by Brianne's blades during rehearsals.


Control issues: Sam Attwater ended up dropping his hat during his routine with Brianne Delcourt to Beggin'


Head judge Robin Cousins said: 'The skating was great, the lift was great, the use of the props was great.'

Emma Bunton enthused: 'Your performance was effortless. You had loads of swagger. You had great mic control and you'd make a great little pop star.'

Following on from his argument with Denise Welch's husband Tim Healy last week, Gardiner clashed with Attwater when he accused him of making excuses for dropping the hat.


Clash: Jason Gardiner accused Attwater of making excuses for dropping his hat during the routine


Attwater said he and Brianne had been rehearsing all week with a more flimsy hat, but it had been changed to a heavier one a few hours before the show went out so was more difficult to use.

Gardiner said: 'You practice and you practice, but I'm sorry, you dropped the hat... there's no excuse... You dropped the hat.'

Attwater tried to explain: 'We'd been rehearsing with a different hat all week. The hat was changed at the last minute...,' prompting Gardiner to demand: 'Last minute? When?'

When the ex-EastEnders actor said that afternoon, Gardiner didn't relent: 'Well then you had time.'


Charming: Johnson Beharry VC and Jodeyne Higgins received 19.5 for their routine to Goodnite, Sweetheart, Goodnite


Second to perform was war hero Johnson Beharry VC, 31, and Jodeyne Higgins, 36, using a hat and umbrella to dance to Fifties classic Goodnite, Sweetheart, Goodnite.
The pair received their highest score ever 19.5 - up two points from last week's 17.5.
Giving Beharry some of his most positive comments ever, Gardiner said: 'You handled your props with such finesse and panache.

'The acting reminded me of a silent movie actor, it was complete ridiculous, but charming at the same time. Unlike Sam, you didn't drop them (the props). You handled the umbrella with great care and ease.'

Bunton gave Beharry the lowest score of all the judges, admitting: 'Because you were so near to me I could see your nerves.'

But Cousins - who gave him his highest score - said: 'It was nice, it was smooth, it could have been a bit more skating in there, but sometimes less is more.


Angry: Laura Hamilton and Colin Ratushniak acted as a warring couple to Adele's song Rolling In The Deep


The third duo to take to the ice was children's TV presenter Laura Hamilton, 29, and Canadian professional Colin Ratushniak, 25.

The pair used a chair and a cane to put on a fiery performance to Adele's Rolling In The Deep and received a 25.5.

Bunton told her: 'You had real control over your props. I wasn't keen on the butterfly lifts you could have had more extension in your back.'

Gardiner said: 'You have great characterisation. It was great to see a harder side to you. I thought you handled the cane very well, but there were moment the chair... Overall not bad, I was expecting more from you.'

Counsins added: 'The butterfly lifts were more like moths. You did a good job between maintaining control and working with Colin.'

Next to skate was TV presenter Jeff Brazier, 31, and Canadian partner Isabelle Gauthier, 30, to We Can Work It Out.


High jinks: Brazier performed a tricky lift as he suspends Gauthier above his head


The pair used a table and chairs as they acted out a scene of an arguing couple, receiving a total of 21.5.

After lifting Isabelle in the float spin lift, Brazier nearly fell over but managed to regain his composure just in time.

Cousins remarked: 'For every brilliant moment you had, there was something that went wrong that was very basic.'


Ballet on ice: Chloe Madeley started off her routine with a bit of stretching...


Gardiner said: 'It was very inconsistent performance, it didn't work. The bit at the beginning was supposed to be a domestic, but it was almost like two toddlers being pathetic around a table.'

Bunton disagreed: 'I loved the drama at the beginning.'

Receiving the trickiest props of the night was Chloe Madeley, 24, and French professional Michael Zenezini, 30, who had to skate to Rihanna's hit Only Girl In The World with a rope and hula hoop.


Talking point: Presenter Holly Willoughby - who is seven months pregnant - talks to the judging panel Gardiner, Robin Cousins and Emma Bunton


They were ecstatic after receiving 27.0 after picking up 9s from all three judges.
Week after week, you deliver. Good for you for being in that position to say bring it on, I'll give it a go.

Gardiner: 'I am incredibly proud of you, they were very tricky props. You worked with them beautifully. It's all credit down to what you've done and delivered tonight.'

Seconds out! Denise Welch's husband Tim Healy confronts Jason Gardiner onstage as his wife is latest voted off Dancing On Ice

By JODY THOMPSON


Face off: Acid-tongued Jason waved the Benidorm star away saying 'Oh my god, your breath!'


Second time judge has been confronted following row with Karen Barber


Jason Gardiner was left quaking in his cravat again tonight after he was confronted live on Dancing On Ice tonight - this time, by Denise Welch's husband Tim Healy.

The 59-year-old former Auf Wiedersehen Pet star, who now features in ITV1's Benidorm, rushed to his wife's defence after another lashing by the acid-tongued judge.

However, Tim's staunch defence wasn't enough to save her and after finding herself in the bottom two skate-off with Johnson Beharry after the public vote, Denise was voted off the show.

After the Loose Women star and partner Matt Evers, 34, finished their routine to Eighties softrockers Heart and their power ballad Alone, Jason exclaimed: 'It shows that you are better at the slower stuff - but I would like to say it was a little bit like watching two people play Twister.

'It was like Matt did a position then he assisted you into another position, there was no flow.'

However, Tim wasn't going to take the criticism of his partner lightly, and jumped from his seat in the audience to invade the stage and march right up to the judging table.

As Denise pleaded with him to 'sit down!' Tim put himself right in 39-year-old Jason's face and ranted: 'She’s 52 and she’s got four jobs! How many jobs have you got, eh?'


Cringemaking: Denise held her head in her hands as her husband took on Jason, but her partner Matt Evers seemed to find it hilarious


Not enough: Despite a good effort from Denise dancing to Heart's Alone - and Tim's rant - it wasn't enough to keep her on the show and she was voted off


As Denise looked on, clutching her head in her hands, Gardiner grimaced and waved away Tim with his hands, dismissing him with: 'Oh my God, your breath!'

Denise recovered herself somewhat however afterwards to joke with shocked show hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby: 'It’s only the transvestite off of Benidorm!'

Tim said afterwards with a smile on his face: 'It just got me going a bit that was all, I'm her husband and I love her.'

Jason was previously incurred the wrath of Dancing On Ice head coach Karen Barber at the beginning of last month after he had slated her expertise.


Battling on: Johnson Beharry and partner Jodeyne Higgins beat Denise and Matt in the skate-off and live to skate another day


Karen, 49, was seen with tears streaming down her face after Johnson Beharry VC failed to get the points she felt he deserved during his routine on the Las Vegas themed show.

Karen said she felt the judges had marked him too low, to which Jason snapped back: 'If your opinion still mattered you'd be on the panel.'

However, weeks later, and Johnson still found himself on the bottom of the leader board tonight and then in the skate-off with Denise in the bottom two after the public vote.

Nevertheless, it was Johnson who all three judges chose to save in the skate-off, leaving him to battle on for another day.


Bottom two: Denise and Johnson found themselves at the bottom of the leader board before the scores of the winning team challenged were doubled - but the public vote restored the order


Show first: After the first ever team challenge, the skaters on the winning side had their points doubled


Denise said after being told the result: 'It was bound to happen at some point wasn't it? But I've had the most fantastic time, the experience of a lifetime.'

When Holly joked that she'd always had a lot of family support on the show, particularly from her husband, she exclaimed: 'Particularly tonight! I nearly died!
'But seriously, thanks for the best bunch of pals, and the public who voted for me.

I never in a million years thought I'd get to this stage. I'm knackered but I'm
going on the (Dancing On Ice) tour, so you haven't seen the last of me yet!'

Johnson, 31, had skated to Joe Cocker's You Are So Beautiful with partner Jodeyne Higgins and managed his first ever lift.


Flying high: Team Laura skated to Rockin' All Over The World by Status Quo and came out on top


On the ice: Team Sam did their routine to I Don't Feel Like Dancing by Scissor Sisters, which Jason said was 'like a step class at the gym'


He also revealed afterwards that the feeling had come back to his leg for the first time since he was injured in Iraq.

He said: 'For the first time, I can feel my left this this week for the first time in seven years. I feel really good.'

He landed his equal best mark yet of 17.5 - leaving Denise at the bottom of the leader board with 15.

But there was a twist for the first time in the contest, where the celebrities were split into two for a 'team challenge' and pitted against each other for the judges' votes.

Whichever team won had their scores after their initial dances doubled.

In the second half of the show, Team Sam danced a group routine to I Don't Feel Like Dancing by the Scissor Sisters whereas Team Laura skated to Status Quo's Rockin' All Over The World.

Jeff Brazier, 31 meanwhile, skated to Ray Charles's Hit The Road Jack watched by his friend Olly Murs in the audience - but only managed to equal his score of 22.5 from last week and was in fourth place.

Now in the final five, he said: 'I'm starting to believe that I can make the final. I'm the underdog - I'm the person who's come out of nowhere to potentially go for the title.'


Underdog: Jeff Brazier reckons he could still win the competition with his continued improvements on the ice with partner Isabelle Gauthier


Further up the leaderboard - and again Watched by her parents Judy Finnegan and Richard Madeley - Chloe Madeley made another fine fist of her routine to Alicia Key's Empire State Of Mind with partner Michael Zenezini, and landed her highest mark yet of 26.5.

She gushed afterwards: 'I'm speechless! That's unbelievable. I had a bit of a panic attack in the dressing room as the steps are so hard.'

Judge Robin Cousins said she shouldn't have been worried, saying: 'Every week you come out here and amaze me. That is one of the most difficult routines that any female celebrity has had in the last six years of the show. It was brilliant.

But finding herself on the top of the leaderboard this week was children's TV presenter Laura Hamilton - despite the fact she was in the skate-off last week.


Hot stuff: Laura Hamilton and Colin Ratushniak landed on top of the leader board after getting the judges excited by their routine to The Pointer Sisters' I'm So Excited



Dancing with partner Colin Ratushniak to The Pointer Sisters' I'm So Exicted wearing hot pink, she proved she was hot stuff when she landed 28.5 - the highest score of the series so far.

Jason said: 'You two are unbelievable to watch, the speed the attack...but you never compromise your performance or technique. You are absolutely brilliant.'

But it was a relatively bad week for Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt who had a disappointing routine dancing to Van Morrison's Crazy Love.


Not feeling it: Sam Attwater said he had trouble with his rotating lifts with partner Brianne Delcourt


Despite lots of lifts, he was down from 27 last week to 25.5 this week which Sam said he was actually quite pleased with.

He confessed: 'That was one of the worst ones we've done, so I was very pleased with that. I've really struggled on the rotating lifts.'

Judge Emma Bunton summed up the thoughts on the panel when she said: 'I didn't believe your performance tonight. That extra sparkle wasn't there for me.'

Nevertheless, Sam won through to skate on into next week's show - and battle it out with the rest of the last five as the final draws ever closer.

Kerry Katona slammed for 'extinct' skating skills as she is voted off Dancing On Ice

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LK-qmngs0FUendofvid

[starttext]

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

Emotional: Kerry Katona choked back tears as she thanked everyone on the show after she partner Dan Whiston were voted off Dancing On Ice tonight


She had already resigned herself that she would be leaving the show tonight.

And it would appear the writing was already on the wall for Kerry Katona after she was voted off Dancing On Ice tonight.

But despite her insistence that it was 'only a TV show', the reality star choked back tears as she said her goodbyes.


Not enough: Kerry and Daniel were voted off after performing a routine to the Pussycat Dolls song Hush Hush


Wiping her eyes, she told host Phillip Schofield: 'It's been more than a skating competition. I want to thank the public for voting, my kids are proud, massive thank you for Daniel for his patience.'

Kerry's partner Dan Whiston then praised her and said: 'It's been a journey, Kerry's been a brilliant friend and to me, Kerry's my winner.'

Kerry and Dan faced Jeff Brazier and his partner Isabelle Gauthier, and re-performed their routine to the Pussycat Dolls song Hush Hush.

But it wasn't enough to keep them in, although the outcome to some seemed almost predictable after the scathing comments the pair received after their first time on the ice tonight.

After being given a score of just nine - their lowest on the show - Kerry tried to put on a brave face and joked about having already booked a holiday and said: 'It's only a TV show and I'm having a great time.'

But judge Emma Bunton told her: 'I was quite surprised that you were so relaxed. After being in the bottom, in your head you're already on that plane.'


Lowest score: The judges only gave Kerry and Dan nine points


Robin Cousins added: 'It's been a tough struggle for you which you you have admitted, but it feels like the past couple of weeks you've given in to that'
But the most scathing comments came courtesy of Kerry's biggest critic Jason Gardiner, who, true to form, didn't hold back.

He said: 'What tonight proves, Kerry, is that, unequivocally, your skating ability is on the endangered species list because it's virtually extinct.



In unison: Chloe Madeley and Michael Zenezini were awarded 18.5 by the judges, who said she needed to show more 'personality'


'You've given up on yourself and that's a shame. You've been skating for three months and I have to question what you've been doing all this time.'

This week not only proved to be a tough one for Kerry, but for all the contestant as they were underwent the ultimate skills test with performers having to include three skills - a step, a jump and a spin.

As usual, the skaters' mentors Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean opened the show, performing an elegant routine as Rumer sang Burt Bacharach's What The World Needs Now.


That's our girl! Judy Finnegan and Richard Madeley cheer on their daughter Chloe


The first celebrity up was Chloe Madeley and her partner Michael Zenezini, who both glittered in their black sparkly outfits.

Cheered by her famous parents Judy Finnegan and Richard Madeley, they performed to the Annie Lennox song Little Bird and received a score of 18.5.

Emma Bunton praised her for not shying away from 'difficulty in routines' and said she was pleased to see her push it every week.


Improvement: Johnson Beharry was told that he had 'upped his ante' this week


Jason Gardiner said their steps sequence was 'in unison' but added that he wanted Chloe to come back with 'personality'.

Johnson Beharry VC and his partner Jodeyne Higgins, who narrowly avoided being in the skate-off, were up next, skating to She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5.

But they only managed a score of 14.5, although the judges were in agreement that Johnson was improving each week.


Top of the table: Laura Hamilton and Colin Ratushniak impressed the judges yet again this week with their flawless performance


Impressed: All three judges gave Laura and Colin 8.5 which took them to the top of the leaderboard


Gardiner told him that he was 'upping your ante', while Cousins said: 'It's been a slow and methodical process and if that's how you work then it is paying off.'

The golden couple, who can do no wrong in everyone's eyes were up next and Laura Hamilton and Colin Ratusniak showed no signs of slipping as they topped the leaderboard once again with an impressive performance to Stop by Sam Brown, which earned them a score of 25.5.

Bunton told Laura: 'I wanted you to relax and could feel those nerves but you are an unbelievable performer', while Gardiner added: 'I'm a huge fan and tonight is no exception. You just seemed to flow through all of it.'


Messy: Jason Gardiner told Jeff Brazier and Isabelle Gauthier their routine was displaced


Jeff Brazier and his partner Isabelle Gauthier, who avoided being sent home this evening, scored 16 after a routine to Cee Lo Green's Forget You.

Bunton told them: 'If you keep working this hard you will make this competition very interesting.'

Gardiner added: 'There's no question you have improved, however, you were putting in a lot of effort but it was very messy, it was sort of displaced.'


Serene: All three judges told Denise Welch and Matt Evers that their routine had a 'natural calmness'


Actress Denise Welch - whose fans in the audience included her husband Tim Healy and her fellow Loose Woman Colleen Nolan - was up next with partner Matt Evers, as they performed a routine to Cyndi Lauper's True Colours.

Receiving 16.5, the couple's highest score, she said: 'I'm totally gobsmacked by that. Absolutely thrilled to get those scores.'

And Gardiner added: 'I am incredibly proud of you, tonight it is about what you can do and what you have proven and what you have done is quality over quantity, you did exactly what was required.'


Come on, Denise! Welch's fanbase - including (L-R) Keith Lemon, Colleen Nolan and Denise's husband Tim Healy, cheered her on from the audience


Then it was the moment that left the audience, judges and viewers with their hearts in their mouths as Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt came on to perform the Headbanger move as part of their routine.

The move, which requires the male partner to spin his female around and around just above the ice, had never been performed by a non-professional skater on the show.

But Sam held his nerve as the pair pulled it off flawlessly, earning them a 24.5 score, and Bunton telling him she couldn't' believe she was 'seeing somebody who is not a professional'.


One wrong move: Sam concentrated hard as he spun Brianne fast in the air round the ice


After Kerry and Dan performed next, the show was warpped up by Vanilla Ice and his partner Katie Stainsby, who performed to his number one song, Ice Ice Baby.

They received 22.5, their highest score so far, which Cousins said was the 'best overall performance of the night and a great way to finish off the show'.

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Going... going: Chloe Madeley and Michael Zenezini trip as they rehearse their routine at the Dancing On Ice studios at Shepperton


Dancing On Ice contestant Chloe Madeley is badly bruised after a nasty fall during rehearsals yesterday.

The TV presenter, 23, tripped and crashed onto the ice, bringing her professional partner Michael Zenezini, 30, down with her as she practiced at Shepperton Studios in Surrey.

Despite being in constant pain, Madeley is determined not to let her injury after her performance on Sunday's live show.


Gone! Madeley lands on the hard ice with her partner Michael soon joining her


A Dancing On Ice spokesperson said: 'Chloe was doing her jeté and instead of landing on her foot flatly she caught her toe pick and crashed on the ice.

'Michael who was right behind her and fell on top of her but managed to avoid cutting her.

'Chloe was surprised as she had never messed this move up before.'

Writing on her Twitter page today: 'Arm still killing, plus I fell on it yesterday pretty badly, but I don't care, I just don't want it to affect routine.'


Ouch: Chloe has been nursing her bruised body with ice packs, but is determined it won't affect Sunday's performance


Chloe admitted she spent Thursday night resting and cheering herself up with chocolate, with her parents Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan looking after her.

Richard wrote on on his Twitter: 'Right, off for Arnica cream, tablets, witch hazel, and all the other stuff you've recommended for bruise-busting. Thanks, gang!'
Joking last night, Chloe said: 'It'll be fine it just hurts like a *#*@*+*@*?* right now! thanks though!.

'On my 6th Hob Nob, had a big fall and I'm comforting myself with choccie. Will be fine by tomorrow, just need to sleep on ice... eugh, ice!'
