Fans in UPROAR over 'confusing' Dancing On Ice result
WARNING SPOILERS

Viewers of Dancing On Ice are fuming after last night's result saw Candice Brown leave the competition, despite being tied with Lemar.
The show, which has returned this year after a four-year hiatus, had its first skate-off last night, with The Great British Bake Off's Candice Brown battling it out with singer Lemar.
WARNING: SPOILER ALERT!
Sadly, Candice was sent home, but fans of the show were livid as the judges had got into deadlock over who should leave the competition.
Of course, angry viewers took to Twitter to vent their frustrations and confusion over why it was decided that Candice would leave the show despite having a tied vote among the judges.
Watch Candice Brown and Matt Evers share a farewell video after being voted off Dancing On Ice:
While the Dancing On Ice team have not yet spoken out about the furor, it could be that Candice and Matt had the lowest amount of votes from viewers too, which is the way it normally works on other shows like Strictly Come Dancing.
In fact this week Christopher Dean was the head judge who would have the say over who should leave the competition. Every week the position of head judge alternates between Christopher and Jayne Torvill. But clearly a lot of viewers didn't understand this.
Other viewers were just sad that Candice had gone - never mind the controversy surrounding her exit.
The revival of the show proved to be insanely popular for its first episode last Sunday, drawing an audience of 7.5 million - but last night unfortunately saw a drop of over a million people, leaving the show with an audience of six million. Which is still quite a lot!
Now take a look at everything you need to know about the new series of Dancing On Ice, including how the position of head judge works.
