ITV Dancing On Ice fans complain Liberty 'deserves better' as she's voted off following awkward fall

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Dancing On Ice fans' hearts went out to Liberty Poole as she took a tumble on the ice during tonight's show. The Love Island favourite suffered an awkward fall while being lifted by her professional skating partner Joe Johnson.

The reality star, who starred in last summer's series of the ITV2 dating show, said "I don't know what happened" as she faced the judges.

Liberty, 22, scored 28 out of a possible 40 - her highest score of the series.

But fans were not impressed with the scoring. Judge Jayne Torvill admitted: "I was going to give you higher mark before the fall." @abiflamingo tweeted: "Liberty deserves better." @janebryant5 commented: "Think Liberty deserved more than 7." @xLuciaSerrano asked: "Why is Liberty only getting 7’s!?" @jodiellimanI said: "But yes there was a fall, but Liberty done SO much better this week, nailed that step sequence! @dancingonice sort it out." And @HausofDylan95 asked: "Why are the judges more harsh on Liberty than other celebs?" She was heaped with praise for carring on despite the fall. @DanJBrownMUFC said: "Well done Liberty and Joe for carrying on, I enjoyed the routine." And @teenamassam said: "Love Liberty, she just gets on with it…" The Happy Mondays dancer Bez also fell during his beekeeper theme routine.

DawudAishah said: "The way they talk to this man like his a baby, but the way they spoke to Liberty was so harsh. It's not fair." Fans were later fuming to see Liberty leave the contest after ending up in the skate-off with Olympian Kye Whyte.
