Dancing On Ice 2022: Torvill and Dean leave viewers ‘feeling sick’ with routine

Some people had to switch off!

Dancing On Ice 2022 judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean left viewers feeling slightly sick with their performance last night.

But it wasn’t the actual routine, it was how it was filmed!

In a Dancing On Ice first, Torvill and Dean were filmed by a drone on the ice.

The drone captured the performance in one shot.
