Sally Dynevor voted off Dancing on Ice as judges accuse her of not skating enough

Dancing on Ice said farewell to Coronation Street actress Sally Dynevor on Sunday evening as she became the latest contestant to leave the competition.

Sally, 58, and her professional skating partner Matt Evers found themselves at the bottom of the scoreboard as the judging panel accused her of not skating enough.

Matt, 45, offered to take the blame as he was the one in charge of choreographing the routine using a chair as it was props week - but it didn't stop the judges from giving honest feedback and a total of 25.5.

Jayne Torvill told her: "It was a great performance Sally and you looked very confident and happy out there. Because of the chair there was very little skating in between and I thought with the chair you could have been a bit creative with what you did with it."

Ashley Banjo added: "As Jayne said, there wasn't an awful lot of skating," while Christopher Dean joked: "You used the prop a lot! It was very limited on the skating."

Sally went up against Kye Whyte in the dreaded skate off, and after performing for a second time, she told hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby: "I think it's time to go."

All four judges chose to save Olympic BMX racer Kye and his professional partner Tippy Packard, but they all made sure to praise Sally for her efforts.

Speaking about her time on the show, Sally told Holly and Phil: "I have had the time of my life, I can't tell you how much I've loved doing this show, it's been brilliant.

"Everyone has just been incredible," Sally continued before turning to skater Matt and telling him: "Honestly I couldn't have gotten through this Matt without you, you've been such a strength to me and I've loved every second with you.

"But we'll stay friends, we'll keep in touch!" she added as Matt cuddled her.

Phillip then added: "I am so, so glad that we managed to persuade you to do it," as mum-of-three Holly commented: "It's been a brilliant partnership."
