HOLLY Willoughby had an awkward slip-ip during Sunday’s Dancing On Ice.
After the opening number starring figure skating legends Christopher Dean and Jayne Torvill, the TV presenter stepped up to the camera alongside co-host Holly Willoughby.

Viewers watching at home couldn’t believe the gaffe, with many seeing the humour in the live TV moment.
“Did Holly just call ‘Jayne’…’DRAIN’?” wrote one fan on Twitter.
Another added: “Did Holly say drain and Chris.”
And a third wrote: “Hollys slip of the tongue saying… ‘To impress Drain & Chris.'”
The presenter delighted viewers on Sunday evening after she displayed her stunning hourglass figure in a strapless monochrome gown with a love heart neckline.

Holly‘s dress – crafted by famous designer Gunel Babayeva – also featured a delicate embellishment that saw her sparkle underneath the ITV studio lights.
Sharing her look on Instagram before tonight’s show, Holly wrote: “Tonight on Dancing On Ice, we celebrate Jayne and Chris as our remaining skating stars dance routines inspired by classic Torvill and Dean performances.”
Sunday’s show saw Stef Reid leave the competition as Phillip Schofield said that not one, but two pairings will be sent packing next week.
Stef, 37, landed in the skate-off against Kye Whyte, who was unanimously saved by judges Ashley Banjo, Oti Mabuse and Christopher Dean.
Tonight’s head judge Jayne Torvill agreed with the decision to Stef home, and the track and field Paralympian star told hosts Phillip and Holly Willoughby: “I have absolutely loved every moment of this show.
“It’s just not something I ever thought I would be able to do.”
It came after a jam packed show that host Phillip described as “the best we’ve ever done.”
Dancing On Ice continues next Sunday on ITV at 6.30pm.
