Le Saux first to be kicked off the ice

Former footballer Graeme Le Saux became the first celebrity to be kicked off Dancing on Ice tonight.

The 40-year-old ex-England player found himself in the bottom two, alongside TV reporter Donal MacIntyre after the public votes were added to the judges scores.

Both had to take to the ice again in the first live show of this year's series to win over the judges, who had the casting vote.

All five chose to save MacIntyre for his performance of 'Rockstar' by Nickelback.

Earlier, Christopher Dean told MacIntyre he had chosen a “great time” at the skate-off stage to give his best performance.

Le Saux, who skated to Frank Sinatra's 'I’ve Got You Under My Skin' said: “I thoroughly enjoyed it, I mean it’s short but sweet. I’m going to miss all the guys – the skaters, the other celebs because we built up a really good little team spirit.”

He also said he would miss his skating partner Kristina Lenko.
