'Don't say that!': Sally Dynevor apologises as she makes honest admission ahead of ITV Dancing On Ice exit

She won hearts on this year's Dancing On Ice while taking on the ice each weekend with a big smile.

But Coronation Street legend Sally Dynevor has been voted off back to the cobbles following a skate-off with BMX racer Kye Whyte.

The Weatherfield icon, who has played Sally Metcalfe in the soap since 1986, said she had the time of her life on the ITV celeb skating contest as she bowed out graciously.

But ahead of the judge's decision Sally was pulled up by hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield after she made an honest admission.

Sally, 58, who was partnered with pro skater Matt Evers, told the pair that she felt it was her time to leave the rink.

After Holly pointed out to her "you looked so happy to be in the skate-off" she admitted: "The competition is so good I think it's time for me to go."

"Oh don't say that," said Holly.

And Phillip said: "Don't vote yourself off."

"Sorry," apologised Sally.

The actress, who earlier this month received an MBE for services to drama, covered her mouth and her partner on the ice Matt jokingly grimaced.

Correcting herself, she said: "I want to stay."

After judges voted to save Kye and his pro partner Tippy Packard, a tearful Sally said: "I have had the time of my life I can't tell you how much I've loved doing the show."

Thanking Matt, she said they'll be staying in touch after the show.

"Matt you've been such a strength to me and I've loved every second with you," she said.

In her final show Sally was joined on the ice in a disco routine by her co-star Antony Cotton who competed on Dancing On Ice in 2018.
