Dancing on Ice series 6

The sixth series of Dancing on Ice aired from 9 January to 27 March 2011, on ITV. Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby returned as hosts, while Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean returned as mentors. As part of a major revamp, the show moved from Elstree Studios to Shepperton Studios, where they unveiled a new set. It was the also the first series to be broadcast in HD.

Karen Barber, Emma Bunton, Robin Cousins, and Jason Gardiner returned, though Barber moved from the "Ice Panel" to head coach. Nicky Slater did not return as a judge and was not replaced. In another change, the judges gave scores out of 10.0 instead of 6.0, allowing for an overall total score of 30.0.

The line-up was revealed on 18 December 2010, and consisted of sixteen celebrities. The first two shows, on 9 and 16 January 2011, were billed as "qualifying" rounds, with eight couples skating in each, and two being eliminated each week. The remaining twelve couples progressed to the main competition, which started on 23 January.

A twist on 30 January saw the two celebrities with the lowest combined total of judges' scores and public votes compete in the skate-off as usual, but their fellow celebrities decided which team would stay in the competition instead of the judges.

On 6 March, the six remaining celebrities took part in the first ever team challenge. Following their standard performances, they were divided into two groups of three, with each group performing their own routine. The judges then decided which performance was best, and each celebrity on the winning team had their previous scores doubled. Two weeks later, on 20 March, the four remaining celebrities performed a solo routine following their standard performances.

The finale, on 27 March, was the first not to feature flying performances. Instead, the three remaining couples performed their own "showcase" routines, for which they were joined by four professional skaters. As before, one couple was eliminated before the final two couples performed the Boléro.

Former EastEnders actor Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt were announced as the winners.
