Matt Richardson has become the third celebrity to be voted off Dancing On Ice, just days after he was called up to join the show.
The 29-year-old comedian is technically the sixth contestant to leave this year's series after Denise van Outen, Rufus Hound and Billie Shepherd were all forced to withdraw.
Having had just a couple of weeks to get up to speed - compared to the other celebrities' many months of training - Richardson and pro partner Vicky Ogden found themselves in the bottom two alongside Colin Jackson and partner Klabera Komini.
After the judges decided to send him packing, Richardson conceded: "I am quite relieved, this is the most horrifying terrifying and fear-inducing thing I have ever done. I don't know if I could have done it for another week!"
Dancing On Ice continues next Sunday at 6pm on ITV.
