Nile Wilson 'to win Dancing On Ice' but viewers baffled by judges' scores

Dancing On Ice viewers have chosen Leeds athlete Nile Wilson as their series winner already - but they are a bit confused by the judges' scores.

Audiences all agree that Leeds Olympian Nile, along with dance partner Olivia, were not just the standout performers of the night but are clearly streets ahead of the entire competition this series.

Indeed, their street themed skate, complete with break dancing, was widely praised online as viewers said 'give them the trophy now'.

But Nile and Olivia got 34 out of 40 for their street inspired skate, which many viewers felt was simply too low for their outstanding street skate.

Nile Wilson and Olivia have been tipped to win the whole series (ITV1)

@julianhillaire said: "Everybody else looked like they were Dancing On ICE where Nile looked like her was DANCING on ice"

@shane_official said: "I give Nile and Olivia 9.5. WOAHHHHH that was NEXT LEVEL. The Axel jump was incredible, the street dance was absolutely spot on, and for me the only issue was the little wobble. Dance of the series so far. Incredible. #DancingOnIce #DOI @dancingonice"

@lizbethswann said: "Nile is just SO good it’s mad"

@davidorchiston said: "That’s what I call the best performance of the night by Nile and would have given a 9 #Dancingonice"

@mummysunshine said: "Wow just when you think Nile can’t get any better he does that incredible routine #DancingOnIce"

@emmachloe said: "Nile is by farrrrr the best skater hand over the trophy now really"

@carrieuk2 said: "Wow, Nile was amazing. I loved that so much. He should definitely have got a 9 for that. #dancingonice"

Dancing On Ice airs on ITV1 on Sundays from 6.25pm.
