Andi Peters, host of the ITV spinoff show Dancing On Ice Exclusive, has broken his ankle while rehearsing a routine with his partner Kristina Lenko.

Andi was set to perform the routine next week with Stephen Gatelys former skating partner, but it looks unlikely that he will be back on the ice anytime soon.

Andi, 36, said: “I didn’t think anything was broken until I looked down and saw just how big my ankle had swollen up.

“It was then that I began to think something major might be wrong. It was as if I had snapped a pencil in half.

“The last time I fell over on Dancing On Ice I only had a bruised bum, this time it’s a proper injury. Nobody should underestimate how challenging this show is.”

The big question on all Dancing On Ice fans lips….will this weeks semi finals be cancelled?

ITV has suspended all premium-rate interactive services amid the row over TV phone-ins. It has now launched an independent review after it emerged that X Factor viewers had been overcharged £200,000 in an interactive vote blunder.

ITV said the semi finals of Dancing On Ice would only go ahead on Saturday if its phone-in procedures had been shown to be sound.

The tabloids have been reporting that the show may not go ahead and may be cancelled or rescheduled until next week. I have to admit I was temporarily gutted at the prospect of missing my weekly Duncan fix.

However there is light at the end of the tunnel. ITV chiefs announced today that they were confident the show would pass any scrutiny and therefore will go ahead on Saturday…here’s hoping!

Friends of rugby star Kyran Bracken, have revealed that they are worried about Kyran and how hard he is pushing himself to learn the Dancing On Ice routines.

Kyran has admitted that the schedule is tough saying:

“One of the biggest worries each week is the next routine,” Kyran admitted. “And the thing is we have been in first place or right up there for the last three weeks. Everyone is coming up saying, ‘You’ll be in the final’ and talking like it is already decided. But that puts pressure on me because I want to keep it up.”

A close friend told the Daily Star Sunday: “Kyran has to learn to take time away from the ice. He should really think about his schedule and make sure he is not overdoing it. The last thing we want is for him to crash out or end this show an exhausted wreck.”

Fresh from the rink of ITV’s Dancing On ice, Lisa Scott Lee has revealed that she would love Steps to reunite as Take That have done and hopefully Boyzone won’t.

Speaking to the Sunday People Lisa stated:

“I would definitely welcome a Steps reunion and follow in the footsteps of Take That.

“We’ve all kept in touch, so I’d love it if we could get back together.”

How did she do it? Emily Symons has survived another elimination and escaped being in the bottom twos couples tonight in ITV’s Dancing On Ice.

I think that most people would agree that Emily should have left the competition last week, if not before, but somehow she keeps surviving the public vote. Sympathy is a fantastic emotion, but at this stage people should really be voting on the basis of skill and not on personality.

I think it was unfair that Lee had to leave tonight, but as he ended up in the bottom two with Clare Buckfield it wasn’t at all surprising. The judges were unanimous, they saved Clare. Hopefully after this Clare will make the final and Emily will leave next week. A Duncan, Clare, Kyran final is only right.

Duncan James today admitted to The Mirror that he hopes the next 12 months would be a turning point, during whcih he will meet the woman of his dreams.

“I’d love to meet someone special and hitting 30 seems like a good age to do it,” Duncan told The Mirror. “It’ll probably be a turning point for me where I take some time out of the business and concentrate on settling down.

“I’m not going to jump into any old relationship. Any girl I date has to accept that I come with responsibilities. My mum, my daughter and the mother of my child will always come first.

“Am I a mummy’s boy? I guess I am. I’ve never had a dad in my life so it’s always been me and Mum. I love my mum to pieces and I want to make her proud.”

In an interview with The Daily Record today, Lee Sharpe rattled off his extensive list of injuries which he has sustained since beginning rehearsals for Dancing On ice.

His injuries have included: a damaged wrist ligament, damaged shoulder muscles, a dodgy neck and bruised knees.

Its a dangerous business this ice skating!

In a true Jerry Springer moment, Dancing On Ice contestant, Clare Buckley, has declared that she is SO OVER her ex boyfriend Declan Donnelly.

‘I’ve had a couple of relationships since we split with non-celebrities, but they didn’t work out,’ she tells the Daily Mirror.

‘Maybe Mr Right is just around the corner. I understand why people always refer to me as Dec’s ex but hope they’ll soon stop.

‘I hope Dancing On Ice will show me in a different light.’

In almost the same breath though, she declared that she and Dec would never say never, so is she living in hope? Could be.

Duncan James is to cancel his future record releases and tour in a bid to focus on his TV career.

Duncan told Britain’s Sun newspaper: “I’ve decided not to release the single ‘Amazed’ because there’s so many other things going on at the moment.

“The schedule for ‘Dancing On Ice’ is so gruelling that I just don’t have any time to devote to music. There are some amazing offers coming in for TV presenting and theatre roles, so I want to focus on those.”

Duncan has also confessed he is desperate for the work because he is broke.

He said: “When I hit the big time with Blue I could spend, spend, spend. But now my bank account is nearly always empty!

“I bought a house for my mum and a house for the mother of my daughter, Tianie, who I pay child maintenance for.

“I’m hoping I stay in ‘Dancing On Ice’ for as long as possible - and that it then leads to some TV presenting jobs. Otherwise I won’t be able to keep up my mortgage repayments!”

Its hard to imagine a celebrity broke……I feel for him, it’s not nice to be skint!

Lee Sharpe has admitted that he thinks a man should win Dancing On Ice this year as they have a much tougher job than the girls.

He told the Daily Star Sunday, “It is easier for the girls. They just have to concentrate on looking nice and smiling in front of the cameras. They only have to be lifted up by their partners.

“Because they are mostly singers and actresses they are used to acting up in front of the cameras, which helps.”

I would be inclined to agree with Lee and in fact I started a thread over on our forum saying this exact thing. When the required element last week involved skaters skating independently of their partners, most of the girls struggled, while the men excelled. I think Lee has made an excellent point, but I wouldn’t want to be in his shoes when he meets up with the girls later this week.

Another reality TV shocker! I bet most of the UK were betting on Emily Symons leaving Dancing On Ice tonight. After a few trips on the ice both his week and last, I assumed that Emily would at least be in the skate off. And lets be honest if that had happened, what judge would have saved her?

However Emily made it through to next week without facing the skate off, she left that priveledge to Duncan James and Lisa Scott Lee.

Once again I wrongly assumed that Duncan James would be leaving, even though I think he is the superior skater. What I like about the men in this show is that they can skate independently. The girls lean a lot on their partner and I noticed this more than ever tonight when Emily and Lisa were skating.

Both Lisa and Duncan skated much better second time round, but 4 out of 5 judges saved Duncan and Lisa looked gutted to leave. From this week on it will get harder and harder to chose a winner. Well after Emily goes!

Jayne Torvill has revealed to The Daily Express that she would love to hang up her skates for a few months and dance on firm gorund as part of BBC One’s Strictly Come Dancing.

“It would be great fun, although I’d be worried people would think I’d have an advantage over other contestants,” she told the paper.

“I don’t know if I’d be any good in those high heels, though!”

I think she would be a fabulous contestant..I hope there are some BBC bosses out there reading this!

Oh No! Duncan James has today admitted that he has the hots for newly single Emmerdale actress Emily Symons.

There goes my chance then!

Early on in the show many people were convinced that Clare Buckfield could not have been a compete skating novice, as she was so much more advanced and skilled than the other celebrities.

But speaking to Philip Schofield Clare claimed that she was a complete novice and had stared at exactly the same level as Kyran (Bracken) and Stephen (Gately). My first though was “Gosh, she’s a quick learner!”

However The Mirror has revealed today that while Clare may never have been a professional skater, she certainly has previous experience. They even have the shots to prove it.

So what do you think? Is it fair that she had a head start and advantage over the rest of the celebrities or is it irrelevant at this point? We’d love to hear what you think.
