Dancing On Ice scraps skate-off after Ekin-Su Culculoglu‘s “victory” through the process. This new development limits panelists from influencing the save list. Love Island’s Ekin-Su Culculoglu and Brendyn Hatfield competed in a skate-off against retired footballer John Fashanu and his partner Alexandra Schauman.
Skate-off allowed Dancing on Ice judges, Jayne Torvill, Christopher Dean, Ashley Banjo, and Oti Mabuse to pick their favorite celebrity dancers, thereby eliminating a duo. Unfortunately, it was the end of the road for Fashanu who was booted off the competition.
The Love Island star appeared relieved not to be going home in the first week. But if there is ever a time when she or any contestant will be caught with the least public vote, getting eliminated might just be impossible as Dancing On Ice scraps skate-off.

“Dancing On Ice” Scraps Skate-off, Increasing The Pressure On Celebrities
For the first time in the show’s history, Dancing On Ice scraps skate-off. The showrunners look forward to having more outstanding choreographies from celebrities following this pressure-worthy news.
But that will also mean the judges will not be privileged to save their favorites when it comes down to that. The only thing that works to help contestants will be their votes from the public and the judges’ scores.
Dancing On Ice scraps skate-off may be a good thing for viewers— the heightened pressure making celebrities bring on their A-game, it’s a curse because there can not be mistakes. An insider whispered:
Fans would recall just how flustered Culculoglu looked after discovering that she was with the least votes. But that prompted the former Love Islander and her opponent to bring on their best.
Before having a chance to prove herself, the 28-year-old was heavily criticized for rocking what viewers called an inappropriate outfit.
They also booed her dance routine. Fans claimed it was not family-friendly— since the show projected that. Following the wardrobe malfunction, she showed up in a mini burgundy dress, dancing her heart off.
