Jayne Torvill has tried to silence 'unfair advantage' accusations levelled at Dancing on Ice ahead of Sunday's grand final.
Over the years the fact that some of the contestants on the ITV are trained dancers has caused a stir amongst viewers. Stars who have taken to the rink in recent years with a dance background include Diversity member Perri Kiely and ex Strictly pro James Jordan, who triumphed in 2019.
This year claims have been aimed in the direction of Brendan Cole, Kimberley Wyatt and Regan Gascoigne, who are all in the Dancing on Ice final. Like former winner James, Brendan used to be on Strictly; Kimberley was in Pussycat Dolls and Regan is also a trained dancer who has appeared in pantomimes across the country.
