The thirteenth seriesofDancing on Ice debuted on ITV on 17 January 2021. During the finale of the twelfth series, it was announced that Dancing on Ice had been renewed for another series.[1] The series was once again filmed in the purpose-built studio at Bovingdon Airfield, which had been set up for the tenth series.[2] Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby returned as hosts, while Ashley Banjo, John Barrowman, Christopher Dean, and Jayne Torvill returned as judges.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the series was filmed without a live audience for the first time in the show's history, while the judges were separated by perspex screens. The celebrities and their professional partners formed bubbles in order to work together safely.[3]
This series experienced numerous withdrawals. Denise van Outen, Billie Shepherd, and Jason Donovan were forced to withdraw from the series after suffering injuries, while Rufus Hound and Joe-Warren Plant both withdrew after testing positive for COVID-19. Amy Tinkler and Matt Richardson joined the competition as replacement contestants in weeks 3 and 4, respectively.[4]
On 15 February 2021, ITV announced that they would postpone the sixth live show scheduled for 21 February in order to give the remaining contestants sufficient time to recover from any injuries, stating that "The welfare of all of those involved is important to us and we felt it prudent to take a week's break at this juncture". The episode was instead replaced with a pre-recorded special celebrating the most memorable moments in the show's history entitled Dancing on Ice: The Greatest Show on Ice. The live shows resumed on 28 February.[5]
On 26 February 2021, ITV announced that the current series would end a week earlier than originally planned, taking the number of live shows to eight instead of the usual ten.[6]
Sonny Jay and Angela Egan were announced as the winners on 14 March 2021.
On 24 June 2020, it was announced that Alex Murphy had not been re-contracted for the upcoming series, and on 19 July 2020, that Brianne Delcourt would be leaving the show to spend more time with her husband, Kevin Kilbane, with whom she partnered last series.[7][8] On 30 August 2020, it was announced that Alexander Demetriou and Carlotta Edwards would also not be returning, although Demetriou did still appear in some of the group numbers.[9] On 7 October 2020, it was announced that Jess Hatfield, Oscar Peter, and Tom Naylor would not be returning either. They were replaced by returning professionals Andy Buchanan and Robin Johnstone, and new professionals Angela Egan, Klabera Komini, and Yebin Mok, along with Joe Johnson and Karina Manta who led the professional group routines.[10] Vicky Ogden, also a returning professional, joined the cast in week 4 when Matt Richardson entered the competition, but did not take part in the pre-recorded group routines. On 16 February 2021, it was announced that Hamish Gaman had been forced to withdraw from the competition after snapping a tendon in his hand. Therefore, Faye Brookes was re-partnered with Matt Evers.[11]
On 20 September 2020, Myleene Klass was announced as the first celebrity to be participating in the series.[12] More celebrities were revealed in the following days before the line-up was concluded on 4 October.[13] On 26 January 2021, Denise van Outen was forced to withdraw from the competition after suffering three bone fractures and partially dislocating her shoulder. Van Outen was replaced by former Olympic artistic gymnast Amy Tinkler, who made her debut in the competition in week 3.[14] Former Olympic skier and broadcaster Graham Bell was originally partnered with Yebin Mok; however, after Mok sustained an injury before their first performance, Bell was re-partnered with Karina Manta.[15] On 3 February 2021, it was announced that Rufus Hound had tested positive for COVID-19 and was forced to withdraw from the competition. He was replaced by comedian and television presenter Matt Richardson, who made his debut in the competition in week 4.[16] On 6 February 2021, Billie Shepherd was forced to withdraw from the competition after suffering a head injury in training.[17] On 12 February 2021, it was announced that Joe-Warren Plant had to withdraw from the competition after both he and partner Vanessa Bauer tested positive for COVID-19.[18] On 22 February 2021, it was announced that Jason Donovan had been forced to withdraw from the competition after suffering a back injury.[19]

Group performances:
Graham Bell and Yebin Mok were meant to perform this week. However, after Mok sustaining an injury in training, Rufus Hound and Robin Johnstone performed instead.[20]
In a new twist for this series, during the first two weeks, the judges awarded a Golden Ticket to one couple, which granted them immunity from the public vote. Only half of the celebrities performed this week. The couple with the lowest votes from the first week competed against the couple with the lowest votes from second week in the skate-off. Couples are listed in the order they performed.
