Roxanne Pallett is the eighth celebrity to be voted off Dancing On Ice.

The former Emmerdale beauty came bottom of the public vote with ex-Blue Peter presenter Zoe Salmon and the pair did battle in the skate-off. But the Ice Panel of judges voted in favour of Zoe, and Roxanne and her professional skating partner Daniel Whiston were evicted from the ITV talent show.

The celebrities were challenged to dance with props this week, with Roxanne choosing raunchy Pussy Cat Doll's number Don't Cha as she skated around a chair in a skimpy red outfit.

Zoe and her partner Matt Evers skated to Alesha Dixon's The Boy Does Nothing using a cane as their prop.

Despite the unanimous decision from the judges, even Mr Nasty Jason Gardiner said: "It was a very, very close skate-off. Perhaps the closest we've ever had."

Roxanne said: "It's been such a treat - an amazing experience. I can't believe I made it this far."

Zoe must now face Donal MacIntyre, Coleen Nolan and favourites Ray Quinn and Jessica Taylor next week.
