ITV Dancing On Ice viewers claimed they switched off minutes into tonight's episode.
Kye Whyte, Brendan Cole, Kimberly Wyatt, Regan Gascoigne and Connor Ball donned their skates for Sunday's semi-final.
However, the latest edition of "the greatest show on ice" was hit by chaos as usual presenter Holly Willoughby was forced to pull out after she contracted coronavirus.

Phillip Schofield hosted the show on his own in Holly's absence and wished his co-host well in her recovery at the top of the programme.
He said: "As you can see Holly isn't here tonight. We found out just a few hours ago that she tested positive for coronavirus.
"I know what it's like to watch this show from home. It is really weird. Holly, get well soon. Lots of love."
Fans following the show on Twitter were disappointed that Holly was unable to present the show and said they would be changing the channel.
Drooper said: "Thats it, no Holly. Back to the Baftas"
BCCD added: "Phil without Holly is like Ant without Dec… doesn’t feel right"
Jon posted: "No Holly Willoughby tonight on #DancingOnIce Can’t cope with this"
Jim commented: "With Holly absent there is little chance I will be enjoying the semi tonight."
