The winner of Dancing On Ice 2020 has been crowned in this year’s final results.
The weekend saw the remaining three celebrities skating for the final time this series.
And after ten weeks of competition, on Sunday evening saw the winner crowned and it was Joe Swash who won Dancing On Ice 2020.
Ben Hanlin left in the last elimination, leaving just three contestants for the final last night (March 8).
They were actor and TV presenter Joe Swash, Paralympian Libby Clegg MBE and Diversity dancer Perri Kiely.
In the first half of the final’s results, Libby was eliminated leaving Perri and Joe as the top two.
In Sunday night’s live show, all three finalists first performed a showcase skate before they reprised their favourite skate of the series.
Dancing On Ice judges Jayne Torvill, Christopher Dean, John Barrowman and Ashley Banjo all offered their comments and scores out of 10. However, for the final, their scores were just for guidance as viewer votes alone determined the results.
After each celeb had completed their two performances, the voting lines were frozen.
DOI hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield then announced the celeb with the fewest votes was Libby, finishing in third place.
Perri and Joe then went on to perform once more, skating to the iconic Bolero.
Lines then closed for good before Phil and Holly returned to announce the winner as Joe beat Perri to victory.
“This is the most amazing experience!” reacted Joe.
Viewer votes alone determined the results in the final, with the judges only able to give their opinions for the last live show.
