The three remaining contestants on ITV’s Dancing On Ice have had a rough week as they practice for the show’s final this Sunday night.

The Sun reports that Ray Quinn fainted whilst practising his wire routine and needed oxygen before he could continue. “He was in a bad way on the high wire as he suffers from motion sickness,” a source told the paper.

Jessica Taylor ended up in floods of tears as she had difficulties grasping her version of Torville and Dean’s Bolero. Maybe she’ll get lucky and be the first contestant voted off on Sunday night, meaning she wouldn’t have to perform the routine.

Dancing On Ice contestant Donal MacIntyre has revealed that he has no desire to win the series in Sunday nights final.

Speaking at a press conference in London, Donal said: “I don’t want to win. That’s not my journey… for Ray and Jessica I think it probably is they want to win… For me it is only about enjoying the ride… I shouldn’t be here.

“My motivation to be in the final is to be the best I can be… Trying to win is something that’s outside your control.”

Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner has insisted that Jessica Taylor may just snatch the Dancing On Ice title this Sunday night.

Bookies are touting Ray Quinn as a cert to win the series, however Jason thinks that the high wire routine may help Jessica gain much needed points.

Jason told The Sun said: “Women tend to look better in the air than men.

Former Dancing On Ice contestant Zoe Salmon has denied rumours that there was a huge rift between the skaters backstage.

Speaking to Take 5 magazine, Salmon explained: “All this year’s contestants got on really well. There’s no scandal.

“We’ve all been rooting for each other and I think that’s because the sport has a dangerous side. Nobody wants anyone else to get hurt and it’s great to see the other contestants improve.”

Coleen Nolan has revealed that she is relieved to be out of Dancing On Ice.

The former pop star was booted off the show on Sunday night just a week before the live finals.

Coleen told The Sun: “I wanted to do the semi-finals for me and my family – but I was so ready to go. Before the skate-off I said to Donal, ‘If you go out and fall I swear to God I will break your legs.’ I thought, ‘Just my luck he will fall and they have to put me through.’”

Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner has questioned the credentials of Britain’s Got Talent judge Piers Morgan saying he knows nothing about performing.

“I’m sorry but what does Piers Morgan know about performing?” Jason told Heat.

“I’ve met Piers and he’s a great guy, but he has made some fatally wrong decisions. He doesn’t know what he is talking about.

“I would have liked to have been a judge on Britain’s Got Talent.”

Coleen Nolan has narrowly missed out on the final of Dancing On Ice.

She was booted off the show tonight, some would say finally, and I think even she realised that it was time for her to go.

I am a huge fan of Coleen, in fact she is by far my favourite Loose Woman, but she really should have left Dancing On Ice weeks ago and probably only stayed because of the John Sergeant factor. She amused people, people liked her, but she couldn’t really skate.

Dancing On Ice contestant Coleen Nolan has assured viewers that she will skate this weekend if at all possible, despite her recent injury.

Coleen dislocated a rib last week, the rib consequently pressed into a spinal disc leaving the Loose Woman in extreme pain.

Nolan told The Mirror: “I had never been in so much pain in my life. It was excruciating – even worse than childbirth. And I knew it was serious.

Dancing On Ice girls Roxanne Pallett and Zoe Salmon are said to be at loggerheads after Roxanne made disparaging comments about Zoe’s perma grin during an interview.

Jason Gardiner appeared with Roxane on This Morning last Monday and said of Zoe: “There is such a sincerity on the ice.”

But Roxy, 26, raged: “Sincerity? Are you mad?”

Loose Women panellist Coleen Nolan may be forced to leave Dancing On Ice after suffering her second injury in a week.

Last week Coleen sustained a suspected fracture in her hand and just yesterday, whilst practising a high wire routine, the presenter dislocated a rib.

The on site medics couldn’t help Coleen as the rib was pressing on a disc in her spine and causing her extreme pain so she was rushed to a nearby A&E.

Zoe Salmon has been voted off dancing On Ice and in my opinion she was robbed.

Zoe is going home whilst Coleen Nolan remains, it hardly seems fair does it?

Salmon started off in the series way behind her main female competition, Jessica Taylor, but by this week was almost Jessica’s equal on the ice. Zoe can jump and skate alone, two things which Coleen Nolan still won’t be able to do when this competition is over.

Girls Aloud are to perform at next week’s Dancing on Ice semi final show.

The theme is wire week so the girls will be suspended from the ceiling whilst singing their latest single, Untouchable. Torvill and Dean perform their routine below them.

A source told The Sun: “Everyone’s really excited about getting Girls Aloud. It’s wires week so they’ll be suspended from the ceiling.”

Dancing On Ice star Ray Quinn will be pushing the boundaries on this weeks show by attempting to complet an axel during his on ice routine.

The move is said to be as dangerous as the infamous headbanger but takes more skill on the part of the celebrity, as Ray will have to jump and complete a full turn in the air before landing smoothly on the ice.

Dancing On Ice reject, Roxanne Pallett has blasted show judges Jason Gardiner and Ruthie Henshall and asked for them to be sacked.

In an interview with The Sun, Roxanne said that Jason was a “poor man’s version” of Simon Cowell saying: “Simon knows his stuff, doesn’t get too personal and he’s got class. Jason’s missing the class.”

She went on to vent about Jason and Ruthie saying: “They should get rid of them. They might as well have two blow up dolls sat there, they’re so full of hot air.

“Jason needs to start extending his vocabulary and stop using childish metaphors.

Donal MacIntyre wowed the Dancing On Ice judges last night and was awarded his best score ever on the show.

The TV hardman managed to perform a spellbinding routine along with his new partner….a broom! All that and he had a bruise that covered half his leg as you can see from the picture above.

I have to say that Donal is by far my favourite contestant on this years ITV series. He improves week by week and the show really has been a journey for him. The fact that he is absolutely gorgeous…a real man if you know what I mean….doesn’t hurt either
