Suzanne Shaw eliminated from Dancing On Ice after judges unanimously vote to save Kyran Bracken

'Mistakes are costly': Suzanne Shaw eliminated from Dancing On Ice after judges unanimously vote to save Kyran Bracken

| 
Suzanne Shaw became the latest celebrity to be eliminated from Dancing On Ice: All Stars on Sunday, narrowly missing out on the quarter final.
Despite finding herself in joint second place earlier in the evening, the singer and actress failed to impress the ice panel after going head-to-head with Kyran Bracken in the skate-off.
She was told she had made too many costly mistakes in her routine to Madonna's Music, and was unanimously voted out by the four judges.

She told host Philip Schofield afterwards: 'I've never experienced a skate-off before and it's scary. It wasn't easy. I love this competition, and I am glad we went out on one of our best skates.'
    After admitting she has been frustrated by her past scores earlier on, Suzanne had wowed the judges alongside partner Matt Evers to Alannah Myles' Black Velvet.
    Rewarding the 32-year-old for her technically difficult routine, Karen Barber had given her a perfect 10 to go with three nines, which put her temporarily at the top of the leaderboard.
    Jason Gardiner said the performance had put her back in the race, before adding that she had a slightly 'unsightly' landing, however the same wasn't to be said about her final routine.
    Unanimous: She was told she had made too many costly mistakes in her routine to Madonna's Music, and was voted out by the four judges

    She tweeted after the show to say: 'All I can say is thank you to all the votes, support and amazing comments. It's been a great experience thank you @TheMattEvers love you xx'.
    Beth Tweddle had been the first star to take to the ice earlier in the evening, who was in no way slowed down by her voluminous brown wig, complete with oversized bow.
    The Olympic gymnast, 28, performed a series of lifts alongside her partner Łukasz Różycki and was awarded an impressive 34, including two nines from judges Karen and Ashley Roberts.
    However Nicky Slater said he was in a 'massive quandary' as the medal-winning athlete could skate brilliantly solo but wasn't presenting herself as well as some of the other contestants.

    Next up was Hayley Tamaddon who was determined to top the leaderboard this week with her 'tear-jerker' dance, after falling into second place behind Ray Quinn on Sunday.
    The actress, 37, performed to Sam Bailey's Skyscraper with partner Dan Whiston, which started with a love letter before the emotional moves kicked in.
    They achieved a score of 34.5, with hard-to-please Jason commenting: 'Incredibly expressive, very emotive and you kept that all the way through. However, I would have liked to have seen more unfurling of the arms and upper body'.

    Skating to Macklemore and Ryal Lewis' Can't Hold Us, Kryran made a confident start before partner Nina Ulanova suffered a minor slip.
    Dressed in striking silver costumes, the former rugby player, 39, was given 33 points, which included a nine from Nicky.
    He said he had loved the routine and added that it would have been worth an extra half point if there had been no mistakes.
    They later danced to Michael Jackson's Billie Jean in all-black outfits for the skate-off, which Jason labelled as one of his best skates ever and therefore saving him from elimination.

    Show favourite Ray Quinn was the next to take to the ice and he scored another perfect 40 with his routine to Ed Sheeran's Lego House.
    Skating alongside Maria Filippov, the actor moved Karen to tears with his emotional performance before adding that the pair now skated as 'equals'.
    Jason told the 25-year-old: 'That, my boy, is dancing on ice', before Nicky added that he thought he had 'the whole package. Really soft and really strong.'

    Last to take to the ice was Sam Attwater alongside pro skater Vicky Ogden, who found themselves in the bottom two last Sunday and were tipped to leave.
    After being awarded with 37 points, Karen told the 28-year-old she was happy to see he had his confidence back with Nicky adding that he is a 'high quality' skater.
    However Jason criticised saying: 'If you're going to do some crowd-pleasing, air-pumping choreography it's got to come from a real place.'
    Despite all the couples having already taken to the ice, the stars had to perform once again but this time it was girls versus the boys.
    The female contestants did their piece to Walk Like An Egyptian before the boys changed into casual looks for Uptown Girl. The boys were then unanimously crowned the winners, which sees their points doubled, leaving Beth in last place.

    Brianne Delcourt and Matt Lapinskas get up close and personal to launch Dancing On Ice spin-off tour


    Something to tell us? Brianne Delcourt and Matt Lapinskas get up close and personal to launch Dancing On Ice spin-off tour

    | 

    He may have lost out on the Dancing On Ice trophy but Matt Lapinskas certainly looked like he was a winner in the romance stakes on Tuesday afternoon.
    Obviously still giddy from his time in the show, during which the former EastEnders' star relationship disintegrated, Matt and Brianne were seen in a series of passionate embraces as they helped launch the famous Celebrities On Ice tour.
    Fans will remember blonde professional skater Brianne having a streamy romance with Coronation Street star Danny Young on the 2010 spin-off tour - they later split.
    What goes on tour... Matt Lapinskas and Brianne Delcourt pose up at the launch - both are now single after former EastEnder Matt split from Shona McGarty

    Although the pair were just posing up for the cameras onlookers couldn't help observe Matt, 24, and Brianne, 32, being overly tactile with each other - ahead of going away together on tour.
    For newly single runner-up Matt, who said his relationship with ex Shobna McGarty was stronger than ever before he started the ITV reality show, looked in his element at the UK tour launch at Ice Bar in central London.
    His is not the only relationship to end this series, winner Beth Tweddle, who is also going on the nine arena tour, split from her long-term love financial adviser Steven Cryer.

    The Olympian later announced she has no plans to compete in the European Championships and is still undecided about Rio 2016 as at 27, Beth is already older than other gymnasts. 
    Hosted by Christopher Biggins and starring celebrity skaters: former England rugby captain Kyran Bracken, the Chico, Eastenders' Matt, Welsh rugby star Gareth Thomas, Olympic bronze medalist Beth Tweddle, and the world renowned International Ice Stars.
    The tour will also feature Sugababe Heidi Range, X Factor’s Ruth Lorenzo and other surprise guests.

    A spokesman said: 'This electrifying tour brings you a mix of the very best ice skating professionals courtesy of the world renowned International Ice Stars, some very familiar professional ice skaters and of course the final and main ingredient: The Celebrities.
    'Mix them all together with live music, brand new choreography and we have a family packed evening with spectacular skating, death defying aerial acrobats, juggling, circus tricks, singing, audience participation and laughter in abundance for the whole family to enjoy.'
    Dancing On Ice is fast getting a reputation for ruining relationships and Shona and Matt's split is one of many - it is not even the first of this year's show.

    Coronation Street actress Samia Ghardie split from actor Will Thorpe after she became close to her skating partner - Frenchman Sylvain Longchambon.
    He in turn split from Hollyoaks actress Jennifer Metcalfe - who he met on the show.
    Olympian Beth Tweddle left her lover Steve Cryer this series.
    Coronation Street star Danny Young had a brief affair with Brianne during the Dancing On Ice tour in 2010, they later split.

    Judge Karen Barker also split from her husband Stephen Pickavance and began a relationship with host Christopher Dean.
    But fans will remember it was footballer David Seaman who kick started the 'love curse' after leaving his wife Debbie for pro-skater Frankie Poultney - the pair got close during rehearsals for the skating tour.
