The 37-year-old weather presenter and his partner Brianne Delcourt were booted out of the ITV competition on Sunday night (25.02.18), narrowly missing out on a place in the semi-final.

Speaking after his exit, Alex said: "I've had the best time ever. From everyone out here, to everyone backstage, they've all been brilliant. It was everything I could have wished for and more. When I came into the competition, I thought I was going to go out at week one, week two, so I'm really happy. Thank you to Brianne, you've been a complete soldier throughout the process."

Whilst Brianne added: "I've loved skating with Alex. You did such a good job tonight and thank you for holding me up tonight."

All the judges - Christopher Dean, Jayne Torvill, Ashley Banjo and Jason Gardiner - opted to save Kem Cetinay and Alex Murphy over Alex and Brianne.

When making their decision, the judges praised Alex's skating but admitted it was his time to go.

Ashley said: "At this point in this competition, we are always going to be losing great skaters but I have to go for, basically, who I think would be most competitive in a final situation and I think that would be Kem and Alex."

Whilst Jayne added: "Alex and Brianne, that was a great skate. Your skating was strong ... I'm saving Kem and Alex."

Meanwhile, Jake Quickenden and his professional skating partner Vanessa Bauer wowed the judges - and the studio audience - with an Evil Queen inspired routine to Britney Spears' 'Toxic'. Following their amazing headbanger move last week, the pair were under pressure to deliver an equally stunning performance. They received high praise from all four judges - Christopher, Jayne, Ashley and Jason - who scored them 9.5 a piece, bringing his total to 38.

Rugby star Max Evans bounced back from his spot in last week's skate off to wow the judges with a Red Riding Hood themed skate to Duran Duran's 'Hungry Like A Wolf', whilst 'Coronation Street's Brooke Vincent impressed with a improved skate to Little Mix's 'Black Magic'.

'Dancing on Ice' continues on ITV next Sunday (04.03.18).
