Holly Willoughby never does things by halves on the glamour front. And she wowed as she stepped out in a flowing gold dress for the Dancing On Ice final.

This year’s Dancing on Ice finalists, Brendan Cole, Kimberly Wyatt and Regan Gascoigne, have hit back at claims the ITV show is “fixed” as they all have previous dance experience.The trio, who will skate to impress the ice panel including Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean in the grand final on Sunday 27 March, have all carved out careers as dancers. However, speaking to OK! and other press outlets on the countdown to their last performances, the finalists insisted that it doesn’t mean that they would be natural ice skaters.

Dancing On Ice first landed on our screens back in 2006, and we've watched numerous well-known stars take to the ice over the years. There's been 13 celebrities take home the trophy so far, with the 14th winner set to be announced in this week's final, which takes place on Sunday 27 March. Pussycat Dolls star Kimberly Wyatt, Regan Gascoigne, and Strictly Come Dancing star Brendan Cole are set to battle it out in the Dancing On Ice 2022 final.

Anyone hoping to see their favourite celebs battle for the Dancing on Ice trophy will have to wait a bit longer before they find out who will take home the amazing trophy. In a shake-up to its typical Sunday schedule, ITV has confirmed that the Dancing on Ice final will not air on Sunday 20 March, due to a scheduling conflict.The dancing show's finale has been pushed back by a week so the channel can cover the FA Cup quarter-final match between Nottingham Forest and Liverpool.The football match is due to kick off at 5.15pm and coverage will be on ITV for three hours, meaning that the programme would clash with Dancing on Ice’s usual prime-time 6.30pm slot on ITV1.

Phillip Schofield opted to document Holly Willoughby's 'struggle' backstage at Dancing On Ice as she jumped on a popular trend.
