The seventeenth & final series of Dancing on Ice began airing on ITV on 12 January 2025. During the finale of the sixteenth series, it was announced that Dancing on Ice had been renewed for another series. The series was once again filmed in the purpose-built studio at Bovingdon Airfield, which was set up for the tenth series. Stephen Mulhern and Holly Willoughby returned as the hosts. Christopher Dean, Jayne Torvill, Ashley Banjo and Oti Mabuse returned to the judging panel. The series was won by Coronation Street actor Sam Aston and his partner Molly Lanaghan, with television presenter Michaela Strachan and her partner Mark Hanretty finishing as runners-up.
On 26 March 2025, due to a drop in ratings, ITV announced that the seventeenth series would be the show's last, with the show being shelved and would not return in 2026.
On 4 January 2026, Dancing on Ice was replaced by The Floor from the Sunday night schedule which is currently hosted by Welsh comedian Rob Brydon.
Professional skaters On 29 October 2024, ITV announced the line-up of professional skaters for the seventeenth series. The skaters returning from the previous series were Andy Buchanan, Annette Dytrt, Brendyn Hatfield, Colin Grafton, Mark Hanretty, Sylvain Longchambon, Tippy Packard, Vanessa Bauer, Vanessa James and Vicky Ogden. Following the announcement, Hanretty and Hatfield confirmed it would be their final series as professionals. The professional skaters who did not return for this series were reigning champion Amani Fancy, who left to focus on other projects, and Simon Proulx-Sénécal. They were replaced by Eric Radford and Molly Lanaghan respectively. Prior to the beginning of the series, it was confirmed that following several reports surrounding the welfare of contestants on Strictly Come Dancing, a 24-hour hotline would be introduced for the celebrities and professionals to contact should they have any concerns whilst competing in Dancing on Ice. On 2 February 2025, it was announced that Vanessa Bauer had been forced to withdraw from the series after suffering a torn ligament and various sprain injuries. As a result, her celebrity partner Chris Taylor was re-partnered with Robin Johnstone for the remainder of the series.
Couples On 30 September 2024, Ferne McCann was announced as the first celebrity to be participating in the series. Mollie Pearce, Steve Redgrave and Sam Aston were subsequently confirmed later that day respectively. More celebrities continued to be revealed throughout the following days before the line-up was concluded a week later. The pairings began being revealed on 30 October 2024, before concluding a week later on 6 November 2024. Dame Sarah Storey was initially announced to be competing in the series, and was due to be paired with Sylvain Longchambon, however it was announced on 6 December that Storey had been forced to withdraw from the competition after fracturing her ankle in training. On 26 January 2025, Josh Jones was forced to withdraw from the competition after sustaining an injury to his ankle during training.
