The Dancing On Ice contestants may be battered and bruised but I bet they were all smiling last night as the entire production crew filmed the live show in drag.

From cameramen to runners, all the production staff on the hit ITV TV show dressed as ladies last night, with some going as far as getting the makeup artists to touch up their faces!

An audience member told The Sun: “We were gobsmacked when we realised the crew were in drag.

“Some of them only had a bit of lippy, but others looked like Lily Savage on a night out in Blackpool.

“It kept everyone smiling. I don’t know how Phil and Holly kept a straight face.”
