Ryan Sidebottom ‘chuffed to bits’ to avoid Dancing On Ice elimination

Ryan Sidebottom has said he was “chuffed” to make it through the Dancing On Ice skate-off.

The cricketer faced off against Mark Little when both contestants ended up in the bottom two on the ITV show.

However, judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean, Jason Gardiner and Ashley Banjo all agreed that Sidebottom had performed better and former Neighbours star Little was given the boot.

Sharing a picture of his children on Twitter, the former England international wrote: “Chuffed to bits I’m through!

“Look who gets to come and watch daddy next week.

“Thank you for everyone’s support x @dancingonice

Dancing On Ice continues on ITV.
