Dancing On Ice fans complained they were missing Stephen Mulhern as Phillip Schofield returned to the rink.
Phillip was back alongside co-host Holly Willoughby after missing last weekend's episode.
There was a reshuffle on the popular ITV skating contest after Phillip, 59, tested positive for coronavirus.
