The EastEnders actor got the most viewer votes after topping off his self-created Footloose showcase and a version of ’Riverdance’ in the ’World Tour’ week with an accomplished take on Torvill and Dean’s legendary bolero.

Attwater, who sat at the top of the judges’ leaderboard after his initial two routines, beamed as the result was announced and embraced his professional partner and former lover Brianne Delcourt.

The 24-year-old hoisted Delcourt onto his shoulders as she proudly held up their Dancing On Ice trophy.

When earlier asked by hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby to sum up his experience, Attwater gushed: “It feels amazing and I don’t want to do what everyone does but I have to say thank you to everyone… there’s so many people here and I’ve had the time of my life and it’s all down to them.”

Referring to Delcourt, he added: “I’ve made a friend for life, and I wouldn’t be here now at this point and at the standard I am if it wasn’t for Brianne.”
