Fans of ITV’s Dancing on Ice express anger and share common gripe during semi-final: ‘This is not what we expected’

Dancing On Ice fans were all left marvelling over the same thing during the semi-final on Sunday evening.

Viewers were baffled over why the contestants were tasked of flying on the ice instead of skating.

Amber Davies, Miles Nazaire, Adele Roberts, Greg Rutherford and Ryan Thomas all had a go at flying through the air for the majority of their performance.

But some viewers were left disappointed at the lack of skating involved on the ice so close to the final.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, fans aired their frustration and wrote: ‘I never see the point of the flying routines…it’s called Dancing on Ice not Flying Over the Ice.’ย

‘Not a fan of this in the air stuff! No skating skills demonstrated at all up there!’

‘#DancingOnIceย not into dancing above ice. Change the name of the show.’ย 

‘Canโ€™t really see the point of flying around over the ice, would have been more interesting if they used a prop like they have in previous series’.

‘Well that suited Amber…no skating at all.ย 10s……….FFS, what a joke. Now tell me that’s not an agenda for her to win. 100% a FIX.’

‘This whole โ€œflyingโ€ nonsense is ridiculous! Amber moved about 3 feet on the ice for the whole routine. This is supposed to be the semi final!’

‘This I the most stupidest week of Dancing on ice Iโ€™ve ever seen’.

Amber and her skating partner Simon Senecal scored an impressive 40 points for their beautiful dance – the highest score on the leaderboard of the night.

Adele and Mark Hanretty, who danced last, were awarded 39 points for their emotional performance.ย
