Christopher Dean swears on Dancing on Ice as he makes on-air blunder

Christopher Dean sent shockwaves through the Dancing on Ice audience after uttering a profanity live on air mere minutes into the episode. The incident unfolded during the show on 2 March when presenters Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern welcomed back the remaining four celebrities to compete for a spot in the grand finale.

The hopefuls, Michaela Strachan, Anton Ferdinand, Sam Ashton, and Dan Edgar, were gearing up for their solo performances on the ice. However, the evening took an unexpected turn when Chris, caught off guard after Sam's routine, seemed to let slip a swear word.

Sam and partner Molly took to the rink, vying to impress the judges with a routine to Queen's classic I Want to Break Free, which won them high praise with three perfect 10s from judges Ashley, Oti, and Chris, and a 9.5 from Jayne.

When questioned about the score for Sam's solo challenge, Chris became flustered as he realised he hadn't entered his mark and in a moment of panic, he shouted: "Oh f***ing heck, I forgot to put that in."

Chris later clarified: "I got so excited with your performance that I forgot to give you a mark."

A swift apology followed from the show, yet it didn't take long for viewers to share their astonishment online, reports the Express.

One viewer asked: "Did Christopher Dean just drop an F bomb? #DancingOnIce."

Another wondered: "Did Christ just go F***ing Heck. #dancingonice."

Legendary ice skaters Chris and Jayne Torvill have just revealed their Dancing On Ice future. They will take to the ice one final time with an emotional performance, marking the culmination of an extraordinary 50-year ice-skating journey.

This poignant pre-recorded segment will showcase the renowned duo, best known for their iconic Bolero routine at the 1984 Winter Olympics, where they won a gold medal.

Reflecting on their lengthy career, Chris admitted, "We've been doing it a long time and people our age shouldn't be doing it now, so we're just happy that we can still do it."

"This will be our last live skate on Dancing On Ice because we're doing our final tour this year. So once we've finished our last skate on the tour, we won't be performing again."
