We all realised that skating is actually pretty dangerous business when Gemma Collins took a very dramatic tumble during her performance on live TV last week and showed fans her swollen knee and battered and bruised thighs.

This year's series has proven to be a dramatic one, with Megan and Wes announcing they'd called it quits just two weeks into the series, and Wes's skating partner, Vanessa Bauer posting a cryptic message about 'walking away from drama'.
