Girls Aloud took Dancing On Ice to a new level last night — as they performed their latest song Untouchable while suspended over the rink.
The five singers, in Grecian pastel-coloured dresses, resembled fairies as they floated in mid-air for the special appearance. But strong wires helped ensure they were safe.
Resident skating champions Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean accompanied the girls with a special routine on the ice.
Host Phillip Schofield called the performance “stunning” after he had watched the girls — including X Factor judge Cheryl Cole — in rehearsals. Untouchable is the third track to be released from the band’s album Out Of Control.
Meanwhile, the judges focused on the remaining four celebrity couples who were last night battling for a coveted spot in the final of the ITV1 contest.
They included singer Ray Quinn, who skated with Maria Filippov and former Liberty X star Jessica Taylor with Pavel Aubrecht.
They were joined by investigative journalist Donal MacIntyre, who took to the ice with Florentine Houdiniere and TV’s Loose Women presenter Coleen Nolan with her skating partner Stuart Widdall.
