In Sunday night’s live show, all three finalists first performed a showcase skate before they went head to head on the ice at the same time in a skate battle.

Dancing On Ice judges Jayne Torvill, Christopher Dean, Oti Mabuse 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.

Hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield then announced the contestant with the fewest votes was The Vivienne, finishing in third place.

Nile and Joey 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 Nile beat Joey to victory.

Alongside the trio of finalists, stars on Dancing On Ice 2023 included footballing legend John Fashanu, The Wanted star Siva Kaneswaran, singer Michelle Heaton and Corrie star Mollie Gallagher.
