Semi-Finals

It’s the semi-finals of Dancing on Ice, hosted by Phillip Schofield & Christine Bleakley. Four skating stars have made it this far, but for one it will end in heartbreak just one week away from making the final. The semi finalists all perform two new routines, one of which will see them take to the air as they learn to fly. Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are the proud parents who have coached them all to this stage, but one of their protégés will fall short. Only the best will impress the Ice Panel, who will be as uncompromising as ever, as they judge on both routines. Two stars will agonisingly have to perform their Save Me skates in Dancing on Ice : The Skate Off to stay in the competition, and for one, a place in the final will be out of their grasp. With Olympic gymnast Beth Tweddle, actor Matt Lapinskas, Coronation Street’s Samia Ghadie, Olympic boxing gold medallist Luke Campbell, and rugby union star Gareth Thomas.

Finals

It’s the Final of Dancing on Ice, and Phillip Schofield & Christine Bleakley will take you through the grand finale. Three skating stars have battled against the ice, and the rest of the competition, to make it this far. Only one can be crowned Champion 2013, but who will it be? It’s all down to you, as just the public votes will decide the winner. Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean will be performing a brand new version of their unforgettable Bolero routine, before the two finalists with the most public votes will have to impress with their own self-choreographed Bolero. Before that, all three finalists must skate twice, including one Showcase performance. Will your favourite skate away with the winners trophy? With Olympic gymnast Beth Tweddle, actor Matt Lapinskas, Olympic boxing gold medallist Luke Campbell, and rugby union star Gareth Thomas.
