Dancing on Ice judge, Nicky Slater, told GMTV this morning that he could be fired for giving Suzanne Shaw a controversially low score on Sunday’s show.

Nicky defended his frosty comments saying, “It’s ‘Dancing On Ice’, it’s not ‘Lifting On Ice.’”

However, the ice-skating star revealed he could be in hot water after his remarks caused a row among the judges last week.

“There is a bit of an issue here. The skaters are given the choreography of what to do. So in a way, Suzanne is getting caught between me asking for something which is a balanced routine, and what she’s been given. So I might get sacked actually, because I’m actually questioning the balance of the routine. So in a way, I should just talk about what is performed.”
