Going... going: Chloe Madeley and Michael Zenezini trip as they rehearse their routine at the Dancing On Ice studios at Shepperton


Dancing On Ice contestant Chloe Madeley is badly bruised after a nasty fall during rehearsals yesterday.

The TV presenter, 23, tripped and crashed onto the ice, bringing her professional partner Michael Zenezini, 30, down with her as she practiced at Shepperton Studios in Surrey.

Despite being in constant pain, Madeley is determined not to let her injury after her performance on Sunday's live show.


Gone! Madeley lands on the hard ice with her partner Michael soon joining her


A Dancing On Ice spokesperson said: 'Chloe was doing her jeté and instead of landing on her foot flatly she caught her toe pick and crashed on the ice.

'Michael who was right behind her and fell on top of her but managed to avoid cutting her.

'Chloe was surprised as she had never messed this move up before.'

Writing on her Twitter page today: 'Arm still killing, plus I fell on it yesterday pretty badly, but I don't care, I just don't want it to affect routine.'


Ouch: Chloe has been nursing her bruised body with ice packs, but is determined it won't affect Sunday's performance


Chloe admitted she spent Thursday night resting and cheering herself up with chocolate, with her parents Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan looking after her.

Richard wrote on on his Twitter: 'Right, off for Arnica cream, tablets, witch hazel, and all the other stuff you've recommended for bruise-busting. Thanks, gang!'
Joking last night, Chloe said: 'It'll be fine it just hurts like a *#*@*+*@*?* right now! thanks though!.

'On my 6th Hob Nob, had a big fall and I'm comforting myself with choccie. Will be fine by tomorrow, just need to sleep on ice... eugh, ice!'

Face-off:Furious Dancing On Ice star Karen Barber's fight with Jason Gardiner after judge's harsh insult as Jennifer Metcalfe's voted off

Fury: Karen Barber stormed up to Jason Gardiner and accused him of being 'offensive' after his personal slur on her


Dancing On Ice stars Karen Barber and Jason Gardiner almost came to blows tonight after the judge slated the head coach's expertise.

Karen, 49, was seen with tears streaming down her face after Johnson Beharry VC failed to get the points she felt he deserved during his routine on the Las Vegas themed show.

Beharry, 31, had revealed that a friend of his was in the audience who he hadn't seen in five years since they'd convalesced together in hospital, where the hero was recovering from the serious head injuries he'd sustained in Iraq.


Karen said she felt the judges had marked him too low, to which Jason snapped back: 'If your opinion still mattered you'd be on the panel.'




Hero: Johnson Beharry VC revealed it had been an emotional night for him as a fellow injured veteran who hadn't seen for five years was in the audience


A furious Karen left her seat with the celebrity contestants and stormed up to the Australian, jabbing her finger in his face and demanding he repeat what he'd just said.

Her voice quavering, she went right up to his face and said: 'You know Jason, you really are so offensive. You bring so little to this panel.

Posting in the hour-long break between shows, contestant Jeff Brazier Tweeted: 'Can you believe I got up and went to the loo just before Jason went for Karen, I would have had to of stepped in!! She was really upset...'


Unfair: Karen wipes a tear away after Johnson Beharry scored low marks from the judges


Show host Phillip Schofield was initially left shocked by the confrontation, and could only managed a 'Strewth!' to camera.

However, he soon made a joke of it, saying: 'We've added a new dimension to the competition - a fight! No not really. It's Vegas night.'

But when the show resumed after the scheduled break, Karen's chair remained empty, fuelling speculation that she'd stormed out of the studio.

She did return and Jason gave a half-hearted apology at the start of the second half of the show, but Karen wouldn't accept it and held up her hands to say she'd heard enough, calling him a 'nasty,


Themed: The show had a Las Vegas theme last night - a city famous for staging big fights



Missed it: Jeff Brazier Tweeted that he'd missed the confrontation as he'd nipped to the toilet


Relationships between the pair have become increasingly icy since Karen was taken off the judging panel to become the contestants' head coach.

The face-off wasn't the only shock of the night either - one of the show's early favourites, 27-year-old Jennifer Metcalfe, found herself in the bottom two with Vanilla Ice after the public vote and was voted off by the judges in the skate-off.

The former Hollyoaks star, who found love on the ice with French partner Sylvain Longchambon, was so devastated she could barely speak.


Talent: But despite impressive moves like this, Jennifer was voted off the show


Choked: Jennifer became overcome with emotion after being voted off the show


Before announcing the result, Phillip said that even he had found the results of the phone votes surprising.

He said:'We hate this. Shock result tonight.'

After the judges all chose Vanilla Ice over her, Jennifer managed to get out: 'I just wanted to get further for him...' before choking up.

However, on an earlier VT, she'd said: 'I've enjoyed every single minute of it. He's the most perfect coach. I feel amazing on the ice with him.I know now that I can learn anything I want to if I put my mind to it. Ice skating just feels like me, like I'm home. I'm going to continue.'


Shock exit: Despite being solidly in the middle of theJudges' Leaderboard, Jennifer found herself in the bottom two with Vanilla Ice after the public vote


Jennifer had skated to Cher's If I Could Turn Back Time, wearing a sheer costume in the style of the singer and with her hair in similar dark curls.

All the contestants this week had their first skills test and had to complete a steps sequence on their own - which left many with the wobbles.

Kerry Katona was shown almost quitting the show as she had a meltdown in training that she couldn't manage the task.

But despite landing at the bottom of the leaderboard, viewers at home kept the former Atomic Kitten star out of the bottom two.


Confidence crisis: Kerry Katona had a meltdown during her training this week saying she couldn't manage teh step sequence


Battle: Kerry said that although she knew she didn't have as much talent as some of the other contestants, she was 'having a ball' on the ice


Kerry confessed that she didn't have the talent of many of her competitors, but insisted she was thoroughly enjoying her time on the rink.

She said: 'I'm nowhere near as good as the rest of them, but I am having a ball. This is more than a skating show for me. I'm not the best skater, but I'm here for the journey and the entertainment value.'

Judge Emma Bunton agreed, saying: 'You look so pretty tonight. but I think the step sequence has really exposed you tonight. You're such a sweetheart but the others are so far ahead of you now.'

Gissa kiss! Denise Welch snuggles up to her Dancing On Ice partner Matt Ivers as they arrived at a party for the show's stars in London last night


She's currently fighting to stay on the ice after narrowly missing the skate off on this weekend's Dancing On Ice.

But last night, Denise Welch had no battle getting a kiss from her dance partner as they attended a party for the show in London last night.

The actress was snapped cosying up to Matt Evers outside the Bungalow 8 bar where stars of the celebrity skating show had gathered for a party.

Welch, 52, grabbed her ice man as they arrived at the bash and theatrically lifted her leg up round his as she reached up for a kiss.

And Evers, 34, was only to happy to oblige her as he grabbed her thigh and kissed her back, before they laughed and posed for the waiting cameras.

However, Evers was a distant memory by the end of the night as the Loose Women co-host was accompanied out of the club by singer Gareth Gates, who took part in series three of the show in 2008.


Come on love, let's get you home: Gareth Gates gallantly escorts a worse-for-wear Denise home after the bash


The Pop Idol runner-up put his arm round to Welch to steady her before being a gentleman and escorting her to her car and then home.

The show is only in its third week but six celebrities have already been booted off, including Elen Rivas and Angela Rippon.

But despite the gruelling training sessions that the remaining contestants are enduring to try and guarantee their place each week, that didn't stop them letting their hair down last night.

And former contestants also came out to have some fun including The Inbetweeners star Emily Atack, who was accompanied by her sister Martha.

Former Emmerdale actress Hayley Tamaddon, who won last year's competition, was also there with her former skating partner Dan Whiston.

Out! Cricketer Dominic Cork is out of the game after celebrities vote to save Jeff Brazier on Dancing On Ice

Tense: Jeff Brazier and Isabelle Gauthier (left) managed to survive being voted off Dancing On Ice at the expense of Dominic Cork and his partner Alexandra Schauman


He may score on the cricket field, but England batsman Dominic Cork's skating wasn't enough to keep him on Dancing On Ice tonight.

In a cruel twist, his fellow celebrity contestants on were asked to choose between the 39-year-old and TV presenter Jeff Brazier when both ended up in the bottom two.

Jeff and Dominic ended up in the skate-off after receiving the lowest amount of votes from the public, but this time it was the contestants instead of the judging panel who decided who to save.




Decision time: Each celebrity had to choose between Jeff and Dominic, with most claiming they believed the former had more to give in the competition


In the end, Cork received three votes from his fellow celebrities compared to six for Brazier.

Kerry Katona and Denise Welch just managed to escape the skate-off despite receiving the lowest scores of the night.

First up to skate was Chloe Madeley, 23, and her French partner Michael Zenezini who put on a leather-clad dance to Joan Jett's I Love Rock 'N' Roll and received 19.5, her highest score ever.


Scrapping through: Kerry Katona and Daniel Whiston and Denise Welch and Matt Evers just managed to escape elimination - despite being joint bottom of the leaderboard


Waiting for the ice pick: The contestants wait to hear their fate


Robin told her: 'I love the way you are attacking every element of every performance.'

Emma added: 'You've being brave, entertaining, if you keep this up you'll be in this show for a long time.'

War hero Johnson Beharry VC ended up doing some training with the Ballet Boys dance company during the week to help him shake off some of his military-honed stiffness.


Don't let go: Chloe and Michael's routine received her highest score ever 19.5


The 31-year-old and his Canadian partner Jodeyne Higgins performed to Bob Marley's One Love, receiving 13.0.

Emma said: 'There is a little bit of connection missing between the two of you, but you've got rhythm baby!'

Next up was TV presenter Jeff Brazier, 31, and his Canadian partner Isabelle Gaunthier, who did their first big lift during their ice dance to Jack Johnson's Better Together.


'You've got rhythm baby': War hero Johnson Beharry VC loosened up a bit for his reggae routine to Bob Marley with Jodeyne Higgins


At the beginning of the dance, he had a slight trip on the floor, but quickly got up and went on to score a 12.5.

Brazier blamed his fall on the the Tottenham Hotspurs football loss earlier in the day.

Jason commented: 'It was better than you've ever done until the fall. You did recover very well.'


Good recovery: Despite his slip-up, Brazier quickly recovered and carried on his routine


Kerry Katona, 30, wore a racy lace catsuit for her dance with English partner Daniel Whiston to Rihanna's Disturbia.

She received her lowest score ever - a 10.0 compared to previous weeks 14s.

Jason said: 'You're doing lots of lifts, you're very reliant. It's not a partnership, it's a dependency. You're too dependent, you're using Daniel as a crutch.


'Too dependent': All three judges agreed Kerry was using Daniel 'as a crutch' on the ice and had yet to show her skating skills properly


'Choreography was all over the place. During one move, it looked like you were having an internal examination.'

He clashed again with head coach Karen Barber, who told him: 'Every week you appear to be here to offend people.'

Robin also noted Kerry wasn't doing enough by herself and needed to show her skating skills in future.

Vanilla Ice - real name Rob Van Winkle - relived his injury in the week when he got some stitches by his eye and admitted the crash had affected his confidence on the ice.

The American rapper, 43, and English partner Katie Stainsby performed to Bon Jovi's Always - which he openly admitted wasn't a song he would chose to dance to.

The judges all noted he was a bit tentative on the ice, but said it was completely understandable and gave him a total score of 16.0.


Knee glide: Vanilla Ice and Katie Stainsby's routine to Bon Jovi's soft rock ballad Always received a total of 16.0


Jason told him: 'You're a terrific partner, you're very considerate. Just watch your arms, you look like you're searching for something in the dark. Refine them a bit.'

Next up was England cricketer Dominic Cork, 39, and Finnish partner Alexandra Schauman dancing to The Who's I Can See For Miles in Union Jack clothing.

Last week he ended up in the skate-off but was given a boost by former teammate Freddie Flintoff, who brought his children to watch Cork in the audience.


Patriotic: Cricketer Dominic Cork and Finnish partner Alexandra Schauman's routine to The Who's I Can See For Miles received 11.0


Jason gave a cutting commentary after giving Cork the same 3.0 score every week: 'The thing I like about your performance is when it's over. It's not improving, it's not moving on.'

Robin said: 'I'm going to disagree. I do feel from a skating point of view it's good.'

Children's TV presenter Laura Hamilton, 28, and Canadian partner Colin Ratushniak put on a passionate performance to Shakira's Whenever, Wherever.


Tricky: Laura attempted the difficult 'wrist ripper' move, but didn't finish it smoothly


The dance involved a tricky move called the 'wrist ripper' which she had struggled with throughout rehearsals, but just about to manage to pull off without crashing to the ice.

The pair scored a 20.0, including a huge 7.5 from Jason, who enthused: 'I loved the dynamic, it was fully charged, you all had the nuances. I love watching the two of you.'

Head judge Robin gave her a slightly lower mark, explaining: 'It's fantastic to see the gusto with which you attack everything. To have you at this level so soon in the competition is brilliant.'


Harsh words: Jason Gardiner asked 'where is the emotion?' to Hollyoaks actress Jennifer Metcalfe as she performed a romantic routine to Dionne Warwick's Anyone Who Had A Heart with Sylvain Longchambon


Actress Jennifer Metcalfe and French partner Sylvain Longchambon danced to Dionne Warwick's Anybody Who Had A Heart.

The Hollyoaks star, 27, scored a total 0f 18.5, including a 7 from Robin.

Emma explained: 'There is something lacking, it feels like you're not selling it as much as you can. I would like to see you skate a bit more independently.'

Jason said: 'You're an actress... but where was the emotion?'


Mellow yellow: Loose Women presenter Denise Welch and partner Matt Evers scored 10.0 for their routine to Rumer's Slow


Loose Women presenter Denise Welch, 52, and partner Matt Evers were next to dance to newcomer Rumer's song Slow and received a total score of 10.0
Explaining his low score: 'From last week it had marginally improved. Your lines are still needing to be improved, coming out of stuff you're still a bit clunky.'

Robin added: 'A few little errors, a few little wobbles... it actually played to your strengths.'


Fabulous in fuchsia: Sam and Brianne scored 25.0 for their fast-paced routine to Queen's Crazy Little Thing Called Love


The strongest in the competition, Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt - who he is now dating - performed in fuchsia to Queen's Crazy Little Thing Called Love.

The EastEnders actor and his Canadian partner were miles ahead on the leader board with 25.0 - the same score as last week.

Phillip Schofield asked them to confirm if they're in a romance and the embarrassed couple said: 'Errr, ummm,' leaving him to declare 'I take it as a yes then.'



Going country: 'Comedy' Dave Vitty and Frankie Poultney received 11.0 for their routine to Achy Breaky Heart


Jason enthused: 'You're like skating Viagra. It's very exciting and everything rises when you step onto the ice.'

Emma mused: 'You're finding this a bit easy, you're making it look easy. I think maybe you're holding back a bit and you've got more to give.'

Radio 1 presenter 'Comedy' Dave Vitty was the last to perform with partner Frankie Poultney to Billy Ray Cyrus's Achy Breaky Heart, scoring a total of 11.0.

Jason said: 'It fascinates me that someone who is so committed is just so average. You're somebody that's so engaging but you're not every good.'
• Dancing On Ice returns to ITV1 on Sunday 6th February at 6.30pm.

Elen Rivas and Craig Machlalan fall at the first hurdle as they are voted off Dancing On Ice before the real competition even begins

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqGQTwpD3SAendofvid

[starttext]

By SARAH BULL

Time to say goodbye: Elen Rivas and Craig Machlalan were voted off Dancing On Ice after the skate-off


Elen Rivas and Craig Machlalan were voted off Dancing On Ice tonight, failing to even get through to the real competition which begins next week.

In a brutal cut which saw only six of eight celebrities competing to make it through, the public voted for former WAG Elen and partner Lukasz Rozycki and ex Neighbours star Craig, as well as partner Maria Filippov, to leave the competition.

A clearly upset Elen said she had enjoyed the process 'very much', while Craig added: 'I've had the best time with this bunch and this woman, Maria, is my absolute treasure.'


Tense: Craig, Jennifer and Elen wait to hear who has been voted off the show


Following a tense skate-off, Hollyoaks star Jennifer Metcalfe and her partner Sylvain Longchambon narrowly made it through to the next show after receiving the most votes from the public.

Also through is 'Comedy' Dave Vitty and partner Frankie, Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt, Dominic Cork and Alexandra Schauman, Chloe Madeley and Michael Zenezini and Denise Welch and Matt Evers.

Discussing the couples in the skate-off, Jane Torvill said: 'We're very surprised. Jennifer is a great skater, she had a little slip but other than that she's got a lot going for her.'


We're safe! Jennifer Metcalfe and partner Sylvain Longchambon find out they are safe for another week


Craig and Maria were first up, with the Australian actor saying before taking to the ice: 'Now that I've come this far I would love the opportunity to push myself further.'

After the performance, Craig said: 'It was good. Interestingly enough, once you get the first one out of the way, it's amazing how much more settled you are the second time around.

'I know it's not perfect to be in the bottom three but it's certainly an experience.'


It's been fun: The voted off celebrities reminisce about their time on the ITV programme


Jennifer and Sylvain were second to perform, with Jennifer saying before the skate: 'Me and Sylvain have grown so close. He's a good coach, he doesn't tell me off too much, he's perfect for me. He's put so much time and effort into it and I don't want to go yet.

'To go out before the competition starts is definitely unthinkable - I just want to stay in. I feel like I've found where I should be and that's on the ice.'

Afterwards, talking to Phillip, Jennifer said: 'I loved every minute of that. I enjoyed it and I liked the lift too. I'm much happier with that performance.'


Opening the show: Hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby dressed for the occasion in stunning evening wear


And finally, it was the turn of Elen and Lukasz to skate.
Beforehand, Elen said: 'This experience is amazing, I'm learning a new skill and Lukasz is amazing. I don't want to be leaving this week. If I do well in this competition, my little girls will be so proud of their mummy.

'If I go out now I'll be totally devastated - I think I'll cry.'
Following the performance, Elen said: 'I think it went very well. But I'm gutted though, I'm really sad to be here.'


First up: Former Neighbours star Craig Machlalan and skating partner Maria Filippov were first to take to the ice


In the first show of the evening, the remaining eight celebrities battled for the final six places in Dancing On Ice.

And, with the outcome of the show solely dependent on viewers' votes, with the judges having no sway over who stays and who goes, there was everything to skate for.

Before the contestants took to the ice, mentor Christopher Dean said: 'I think they're all really excited to get out there now.'


Green goddess: Hollyoaks star Jennifer Metcalfe was up next, performing with partner Sylvain Longchambon


While Jane Torvill added: 'I can feel the tension tonight because our skaters tonight know that one of our strongest skaters, Laura Hamilton, was in the skate-off last week.'

First up to perform was former Neighbours star Craig McLachlan, who danced with Maria Filippov.

However, Craig struggled to get to grips with the difficult routine, before he had to fly back to Australia for work commitments.

His skating partner Maria then had to fly Down Under to teach Craig the routine, but complained: 'It's a super crash course, I've never done this with anyone else before!'


Pretty in pink: Elen Rivas performed with dance partner Lukasz Rozycki, and tried to keep the smile on her face


Before starting the routine to the Rolling Stones' Sympathy For The Devil, Craig said: 'I'm in Aussie - in the winter the pond out the back doesn't freeze over! But I've got blades of glory - they'll call me Blade McLachlan.'

But later, Craig admitted he was feeling nervous, adding: 'I just want to do it justice - I don't want to let Chris and Jane down.'

After a relatively successful dance with just a few mistakes, it was time for the judges to pass their judgements.


Stunned: But Elen was less than impressed with the scores she received from the judges


But the judges weren't too impressed, giving Craig nine out of 30.

Robin Windsor said: 'We know you haven't had the time to put in yet and it sort of shows. But I think you have the chance and you've got a big fan base so if you come back you'll have to give it your all.'

While Emma Bunton added: 'I think you've got so much more to give. I want you to feel less inhibited though.'


Feeling blue? Dominic Cork had been nervous about dropping partner Alexandra Schauman before the show


And, ever-caustic Jason Gardiner rounded off the comments by telling Craig: 'The costume covered a multitude of sins for me tonight.

'There were moments from the waist down you moved quite gingerly - it sort of looked like you were wearing a soiled nappy. You need to bring the showman onto the ice.'

However, undeterred Craig said: 'I don't think I'm ready for Olympic selection just yet!' Maria added: 'He did really well. He was really nervous going out first but really well done.'


Hopeful: This week's celebrity contestants line-up for the cameras after their performances


And mentor Christopher said: 'I think there is much more potential to come'.

Next up was Jennifer Metcalfe, who shone in a revealing and sparkly green outfit as she took to the ice with partner Sylvain to perform the routine to Madonna's Crazy For You.

As she was shown getting ready for the difficult routine, Jennifer said: 'I'm really excited but just nervous, I don't know what to expect. I'd like my dance partner to be strong and muscly so I feel safe in their arms.'

And after meeting French charmer Sylvain, Jennifer said: 'Is he straight and single?'
