Regan Gascoigne was left in flood of tears by dad Gazza during Sunday's Dancing on Ice final.
While he wasn't there in person, football icon Paul Gascoigne certainly made an impact as he sent son Regan a moving video message, which was shown to him as he prepared to go for glory on the ITV show.
In the days leading up to the Dancing on Ice finale, newly crowned winner Regan confirmed it would once again be mum Sheryl and sister Bianca who would be cheering him on in the audience and not his dad. But Gazza still had a part to play in the show as, to the delight of many viewers at home, he appeared on screen with a message for his 26-year-old son.

It was Bianca and Sheryl who were first up, with Bianca telling Regan : "I'm just so, so proud. I can't even put into words." Regan then became more emotional and burst into tears as he saw his dad, with Gazza saying: "I'm really, really so proud of you. Give it everything you've got. Lots of love from Dad."
Mum Sheryl, who Regan dedicated his semi-final skate to, was the last to give a message, with her telling him: "For you to get to the final of this show that has meant so much to your for all these years. It's yours for the taking."
Although he was absent from the Dancing on Ice final on Sunday, Gazza proudly took his seat in the audience in February to see Regan in action. He was seen wiping away tears as he sat next to Bianca, before telling host Holly Willoughby how proud he was.
