Brendan Cole has revealed to fans how Sunday night's final will work as bookies tip him and Kimberley Wyatt to be beaten by Regan Gascoigne.
In a reaction similar to the one when Saturday Night Takeaway was cancelled to make way for the rugby just 24 hours earlier, ITV were met with a barrage of complaints when they delayed this year's final to allow live coverage of FA Cup football on Sunday.
The delay, which was confirmed live on air by host Phillip Schofield during the March 13 episode of Dancing on Ice, has meant that Brendan, Kimberley and Regan have had a week longer to prepare for their final skates.
