The laughter stops: Dancing On Ice joker Joe Pasquale voted off after going head-to- head with fellow prankster Keith Chegwin
|
It was battle of the jokers on Sunday night's Dancing On Ice after Keith Chegwin went head-to-head with long-time friend Joe Pasquale.
However, it was the comedian and his partner Vicky Ogden who lost out after the judges saved TV presenter Keith and Olga Sharutenko following their 'save me' skate-off.
The pair were in the bottom two after receiving the least amount of public votes and had earlier ended up languishing last on this week's leaderboard.

Decision time: All four judges opted to save Keith Chegwin and his partner Olga Sharutenko
Former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! winner Joe, 51, was the first to perform to the Bee Gees' I Started A Joke, followed by Keith, 56, to Elbow's Olympic theme.
Essex-native Joe admitted he had been 'bursting for a wee' during his performance.
When asked to choose between them, judge Karen Barber opted for Keith: 'You brought something really special. This is not goodbye Joe. I'm saving Keith.'

Ashley Roberts followed suit: 'You are both are just adorable, I just wanna pinch your cheeks. Tonight I'm saving Keith, his cheeks.'
Jason Gardiner agreed: 'Personality you both have that in abundance. Technicality-wise, Keith overrides you.'
Earlier on Sunday, Gareth Thomas and Robin Johnstone ended up at the top of the leaderboard after their touching routine to Labrinth featuring Emeli Sande's Beneath Your Beautiful.

The Welsh rugby ace received an impressive total score of 30, including a 8.5 from Karen.
Also during the live show, Karen embarrassed arch-rival Jason for his lack of skating knowledge when he praised Luke Campbell for his pressage lift - which was in fact removed from the routine due to the boxer injuring his wrist.
Karen said: 'You notice everything Jason, but there was no pressage lift there... we took it out.'
