Dancing on Ice. DJ Neil Fox voted off after a skate-off with the feuding Kate Burley

The twenty year old feud continues between Ulrika Johnsson and Kay Burley on and off the ice. An insider has said that it is unpleasant for the rest of the contestants as the atmosphere behind the scenes is extremely frosty as the two, apparently, cannot stand each other. Ulrika, it is said, harbours a grudge against news anchor Kay for bossing her around when she was a secretary many years ago and is determined to be crowned Ice Queen of ‘Skating on Ice’. Apparently the two have refused to use the room for the competitors to relax in, in case they bump into each other. They will not even visit the masseuse who is based on the premises. Reportedly Ulrika has ordered her costumes to be ‘sexed up’ in an attempt to outshine Kay. She certainly wowed the audience last Saturday as the judges put her fourth. Ulrika has reportedly said that she wants to keep her 52,000 pound fee rather than give it to charity. Apparently Ulrika has been giving the producers headaches with her ‘diva-like’ strops during rehearsals and behaving as if she’s the only star in the show, bringing her own make-up and hair team with her, according to an insider. No matter what is said about the two women, they are both fantastic skaters and it is a mystery as to why Kay is receiving such low scores from the judges.

The skating has been of a very high standard from the beginning with an interesting group of participating celebrities. When watching the show it feels as if we have stepped into an ice palace and the décor is superb. Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean commence the evening with an awesome skating number and show the manoeuvres expected from the competitors that evening. This is a show well worth tuning into it.
