Viewers have been threatening to switch off after the “Mr Nasty” of ice skating could only raise criticism of the show’s newly trained hopefuls, which this year includes Saara Aalto and Brian McFadden.
Fans of the show noticed that while Torvill and Dean could score the celebs quite highly, it was rare for Jason to go above a 4.5 out of ten, despite him not being a professional ice skater.
On tonight’s show, viewers and fans ranted how “slimy” and “bitchy” Jason was coming off.
Jason has been a longstanding judge on the show and started in 2006 until the show was cancelled in 2014 and then was asked back when the show was relaunched in 2018. He took out a year in 2012.
