Patsy Palmer mortified after epic fall during Dancing on Ice routine
PATSY Palmer was left mortified after an epic fall during her Dancing on Ice routine.
The former EastEnders actress took to the ice for Dancing on Ice’s Musicals Week with her partner Matt Evers.
The pair danced to Defying Gravity from Wicked and Patsy was painted green just like Elphaba from the show.
While she got off to a good start, as they zipped across the ice, Patsy suddenly lost her footing and fell to the floor.
Matt quickly tried to help his partner up and after an awkward moment, she was back on her skates and headed over to be strapped into a harness to be raised into the air for the routine’s finale.
As she headed over for her scores, Phillip Schofield quipped: “Not quite defying gravity.”

He then asked if she was OK, and she replied: “I’m ok, it’s life, you fall, you get up, you carry on, it’s amazing.”
Christopher Dean told her: “My mantra is if you’re not falling you’re not trying and you were really trying.”
But he added: “The stumble brought it [his score] down a little.”
Meanwhile Oti Mabuse told her: “I wish you had fallen and styled it out somehow but I’d love to commend you for carrying on.”
Patsy ended up scoring 20.5, putting her second from the bottom of the leaderboard.
