Kyran Bracken was eliminated from ‘Dancing on Ice’ tonight (23.02.14).
The former rugby star became the latest celebrity to be voted off the ITV series after facing Sam Attwater in a tough skate-off.
The 39-year-old Irish athlete gave one of his best performances of the series to Snow Patrol’s hit ‘Chasing Cars,’ but all four judges, Jason Gardiner, Ashley Roberts, Robin Cousins and Karen Barber, made the difficult decision to save the ex ‘EastEnders’ star, who performed a Riverdance-inspired routine, instead.
Upon hearing the result, Kyran thanked his professional partner Nina Ulanova, calling her a "star" and told host Phillip Schofield: "To finish off on our best-ever skate was fantastic and all I can say is thanks to the people who have been keeping us in."
He also predicted that any of the remaining contestants, Ray Quinn, Hayley Tamaddon, Beth Tweedle and Sam, have the potential to win.
He said: "Good luck to all of them. I honestly think you’ve got some great skaters. And it’s not a done deal yet."
Former ‘X Factor’ runner-up Ray, 25, is the hot favourite to be named the ‘All Star’ champion of the show’s final series ahead of next year’s semi-final.
‘Dancing on Ice All-Stars’ continues next Sunday (02.03.14) at 6.15pm on ITV.
