In last night's show, seven of the remaining eight famous contestants took to the rink, with Siva Kaneswaran unfortunately sitting out the episode after falling ill.

Taking on Icons Night, the Dancing on Ice line-up transformed into stars of stage and screen, from Patsy Palmer becoming a Spice Girl to Carley Stenson donning a Dusty Springfield beehive.

Joey Essex was the first to take to the ice for week 5, embracing a Sir Elton John-esque outfit and scoring 33 points for his routine to I'm Still Standing.

Patsy Palmer was up next, making a mid-performance costume change to Spice Girls hit Spice Up Your Life. However, her score of 26.5 landed her at the bottom of the leaderboard.

Nile Wilson came in first place once again with his Robbie Williams routine, while Darren Harriott channelled George Michael for his skate, picking up 28.5.

The Vivienne skated to Beyoncé out of drag and impressed the judges with her 33.5-point performance, although Carley Stenson pipped her to second place, skating to Dusty Springfield's Take Another Little Piece of My Heart.

Mollie Gallagher closed the show as Billie Eilish, performing the very first Headbanger of the season – however, it was Patsy and Darren who landed in the skate-off following the public vote.

Despite giving it her all, Patsy Palmer became the fourth person to be eliminated from the competition after the judges unanimously voted to save Darren.
