ITV Confirms Dancing on Ice Future Uncertain Amid Ratings Decline

The future of ITV's Dancing on Ice is in jeopardy as the show faces a significant ratings decline, reaching an all-time low of 2.4 million viewers. Insiders have expressed concerns that this season could be the last, especially following a drop from 4.1 million at its peak in 2023. Judge Oti Mabuse's recent nostalgic social media post has further fueled speculation about the show's end, prompting fans to discuss its potential cancellation. Former contestant Brendan Cole criticized the lack of innovation in the show's format, suggesting it may have run its course, while noting the impact of injuries among contestants this season. ITV has not made a definitive decision regarding the show's future, stating they are focused on the current series finale. As discussions about the show's viability continue, the production team is reportedly assessing whether the program is worth its production costs given the dwindling viewership.
