Dancing on Ice's Ashley Banjo forced to 'explain' himself after being booed over 'harsh' score

Ashley Banjo battled through illness to be on Sunday's Dancing on Ice, only to be booed by the studio audience over one of his scores and then being made to 'explain' himself by host Holly Willoughby.

Sitting next to Oti Mabuse, who joined the ITV show from Strictly last year, Ashley was back to cast an eye over the five couples competing in this year's semi final and, after the celebs all had to skate on their own in the opening number of the night, they were back alongside their professional partners for a 'personal' skate.
