- Dancing On Ice tipped to end after this series.

- Dancing On Ice returned for a 17th series on Sunday night and there have been plenty on movement on the markets after just one episode.
Gambling.com’s Entertainment expert, James Leyfield has been monitoring Dancing On Ice and has created markets around the show.
Is Ice Axe Nearing?
While the celebrities will be looking to avoid low scores, show bosses might be hoping to avoid low ratings.
It comes after an average of 2.9 million watched Dancing on Ice’s return on Saturday, compared to an average of 3.6 million who watched the launch episode last year.
The ITV skating show is now into just 1/2, from 8/13 to be axed later this year. It’s 8/11 that the programme ends in 2026.
The ice-skating legends are now into 8/15 to quit the show following the current series and it’s into 10/11 the pair depart next year.
Michaela Wows In Ice Debut
Arguably the most impressive performer of last Sunday night was one of the ante-post outsiders – Michaela Strachan.
As a result, Michaela is into just 3/1 to win the series from a massive 25/1 before the off.
Soap star Sam Aston also fared well, scoring 27 points, and he is into 9/2 from a best price of 5/1 prior to the weekend.
The Traitors’ Mollie Pearce is into 4/1 from 11/2, despite not skating yet, but TOWIE’s Dan Edgar has gone in the opposite direction – out to 13/2 from 11/2 – as he awaits his ice debut on Sunday night.
Elsewhere, Hollyoaks star Chelsee Healey finished bottom of the leaderboard on 22 points, and she is on the drift as a result.
The star is 25/1 to win the 17th season from 10/1 last week, but she isn’t at the bottom of the pile.
Steve’s Short Stint?
While Sir Steve Redgrave is yet to skate, he finds himself at the top of the Next Elimination market.
Steve is now 100/1 to win this year’s Dancing on Ice, from a best price of 33/1 prior to the weekend.
He is also 6/4 favourite to be eliminated next, followed by 7/4 chance Josh Jones and 2/1 third favourite Chelsee.
Steve is the 2/1 favourite to be the next to do so in this year’s series, followed by 5/2 chance Chelsee.
