Phillip Schofield says Sharron Davies created `frostiness' on set

Dancing on Ice host Phillip Schofield has claimed that Sharron Davies caused a "frosty" atmosphere on the set. The Olympic swimmer decided to change the music and routine she was given.

Davies was unhappy with the choice made by show mentors Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean.

She said she made the decision to change to a slower number because she found the fast dance number difficult because of injuries she sustained during her swimming career.

Writing on Twitter after the show, Schofield remarked: "My God, it was as frosty off the ice as it was on tonight!!

"Never known a show like it - sensational."

He added: "With regards to the frostiness, it's never good to tell Olympic Gold medallists and international skating legends that you know better!!!"

Sharron was voted off the show after she and professional partner Pavel Aubrecht found themselves in the skate-off alongside Emily Atack and Fred Palascak.

Davies said: "I have enjoyed my time here. First and foremost, I had the best partner I could ever wish for.

"It's been just fantastic. I've really enjoyed the guys over here - they're great skaters and most importantly they're fantastic people."

    Frosty? Bet it was Arctic!! Chris's face was an absolute study and you could SEE that he had to actually THINK about what he was going to say. Diplomatic or what? As for Sharron Davies, I thought her sport was Swimming, NOT Ice Dancing - so who died and put her in charge? She moaned about her health problems due to swimming but since this series started, we've all watched girls and guys skating through the pain barrier WITHOUT changing their routines. Sharron Davies knew before she signed her contract what to expect - and if she didn't, she must have been living on the moon or something. Nah - just doesn't wash. And if she "thought more of her shoulder" she shouldn't have been so greedy and put pen to paper. Even if she'd done a perfect routine this week, she would've been canned anyway after the disrespect she showed towards Chris and Jayne.
