Didi Conn exits Dancing on Ice

Didi Conn has been eliminated from ‘Dancing on Ice’.
The 67-year-old actress has become the third contestant to leave this year’s show after losing in the dreaded skate-off against Saara Aalto.
Following her exit, Didi – who is best-known for playing Frenchie in ‘Grease’ – told her dance partner Łukasz Rozycki: "I have enjoyed my partner, the best in the world. And he’s a good cook, too."
All four judges voted in favour of keeping Saara on ‘Dancing on Ice’, with Jason Gardiner saying that Didi’s exit meant the programme was losing a little bit of its "heart".
Didi also revealed she plans to continue skating, even though she’s been eliminated from the ITV show.
Asked whether she’ll take to the ice in the future, Didi explained: "Oh sure, I have to come back at the end, right?"
Earlier in the show, Gemma Collins suffered a painful-looking fall during the final moments of her routine.
The outspoken star had to fight back tears as she listened to the review of her performance by the ‘Dancing on Ice’ judges.
Despite her embarrassing tumble, head judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean praised Gemma for the improvements she’s made over the last week.
And Jason – who was involved in an on-air argument with Gemma last week – also praised her performance.
He said: "When you come in and apply yourself, and when you drop The GC you improve and you did."
