Sarah GreeneSarah GreeneIt was neck and neck between Samantha Mumba and Sarah Greene...

But the former Blue Peter presenter was the first to be booted off Dancing On Ice.

The 49-year-old suffered the first voting blow last night after a live skate off in the ITV1 show.

It was unanimous across the board of five judges that her time was up.

Sarah said: "I've loved all of it - and this is a fantastic hobby to have.

"I'm going to continue. It's been such a fantastic experience and a fantastic sport.

"I just can't wait to get back to all my friends at Slough ice rink. Everyone should take it up."

In other DOI news, The Sun reports that Gareth Gates has been banned from having a spray tan, lest he look too orange on t'telly.

That's showbiz, folks.
