Earlier on in the night, both Mollie and Dan Edgar were sent plunging into the skate-off after failing to impress viewers, despite receiving high scores for their routines.

Hosts Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern revealed that former footballer Anton Ferdinand, Corrie actor Sam Aston, and Springwatch presenter Michaela Strachan were heading straight through to the semi-finals.

This left The Traitors personality Mollie, and her pro partner Colin Grafton, to skate again.

She was up against The Only Way Is Essex star Dan and his ice dance professional Vanessa James.

Earlier on in Musicals Night, Vanessa had suffered a shock fall after being thrown by Dan during the pair’s cowboy-themed Oklahoma! routine.

However, the pair rectified their mistake in the skate-off, and were saved by Dancing On Ice judges Ashley, Chris, and Jayne, with only Oti voting to keep Mollie in the competition.

Now, only four competitors remain to battle it out in the long-running ITV celebrity skating competition.

Next week, Dan will face Anton, Sam and BBC star Michaela as the quartet compete for a place in the live final.

This comes after actress Chelsee Healey, Ferne McCann, and Olympic rower Steve Redgrave were all eliminated.

Love Island’s Chris Taylor was previously forced to skate away and former EastEnders actress Charlie Brooks was axed by the judges last week.

Last year, former Coronation Street actor Ryan Thomas emerged as the victor after beating Radio 1’s Adele Roberts and Made In Chelsea personality Miles Nazaire.

Fans were left absolutely stunned as Mollie was axed and took to social media in droves with disappointment.

Writing on X, one fan wrote: “Mollie got absolutely s****** over tonight by the gross overmarking of Dan and Anton.”

A second commented: “So sad to see Mollie go she deserved better than what she got.

“I hope the people who vote for Mollie can unite with the people voting for Michaela because it’s time we get a woman to finally win this show again.”

“What the hell are these judges thinking? Mollie & Colin were robbed,” fumed a third viewer.

While a fourth exclaimed: “We all know Mollie was miles better! Oti the only one with eyes it seems!”

And a fifth fan added: “Ah s*** sake. Mollie and Colin deserved to stay in this.”
