Tana Ramsay has been voted off 'Dancing On Ice'.
The cookbook author - who is married to celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay - was sent home from the show after all five judges opted to save former 'Coronation Street' actor Danny Young in the show's skate off last night (31.01.10).
The 35-year-old star and ice partner Stuart Widdall had earlier scored just 12 points out of a possible 30, despite all the panelists agreeing their performance had much improved from their previous efforts.
However, their repeat performance failed to match the standard of Danny - who had been disappointed to find himself in the bottom two after earlier scoring 17 - and his partner Frankie Poultney and the unanimous verdict meant "exhausted" Tana's time on the show came to an end.
This is also about performance, and yours stays on one level. In your brown costume, it was like watching faecal matter before it's flushed. It just goes round and round.
She said afterwards: "I've had such a fantastic, fantastic time. I'm going to miss skating with Stuart. I'm exhausted.
"My favourite bits were the training and the challenge of it all. Stuart has the patience of a saint."
Earlier in the show, outspoken judge Jason Gardner caused controversy when he upset Olympic swimmer Sharron Davies by comparing her performance with Pavel Aubrecht to "faecal matter going round and round".
He said: "This is also about performance, and yours stays on one level. In your brown costume, it was like watching faecal matter before it's flushed. It just goes round and round."
At the bottom of this week's scores were 'Inbetweeners' actress Emily Atack and Fred Palascak with just 10.5, while former 'Emmerdale' star Hayley Tammadon and partner Daniel Whiston impressed the panel again, topping the leader board with 23 points.
