The latest season of Dancing on Ice has come to an exciting end, and we have a new champion.

After weeks of skating, Coronation Street actor Sam Aston and his partner Molly Lanaghan were crowned as the winners.

Michaela Strachan, the BBC Springwatch presenter, and her skating partner Mark Hanretty were the runners-up.

Former footballer Anton Ferdinand and his partner Annette Dytrt came third and were the first to be eliminated in the final after a public vote.

In the final show, all the contestants performed dazzling routines. Anton and Annette skated to Let's Go Crazy by famous musician Prince, earning a perfect score of 40 from the judges. Speaking to his skating partner, Anton told Annette that he'd "enjoyed this journey" with her.

Michaela and Mark skated to Don't Rain On My Parade, with judge Oti Mabuse saying their performance had "really touched“ her and was "absolutely beautiful."

And Sam and Molly performed to the Pink Panther theme, as Christopher Dean, one of the judges, told Sam, "I'm really proud of you."

After Anton lost the public vote, Sam and Michaela skated to the Bolero, a routine which was made famous by skating judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean at the 1984 Winter Olympics.

Jane was clearly impressed with Sam's performance, saying it was "brilliant!"

"I mean tonight, everything came together," Christopher said. "Your skating skills are always on show, but you had to have timing and acting,"

The Coronation Street star said his time on the competition had been "such a journey".
