After some celebrities appeared, she said of an interaction with her co-host Stephen Mulhern: “Earlier on, Stephen may have given me a fright, and I think it sounded like a bad word slipped out.”
“I don't think I did, but I'm sorry if you thought you heard it, but I don't think I heard it.”
“I’ll watch it again on ITV Player because that’s where you can watch these things again.”

Before returning to Dancing On Ice alongside her new co-host Stephen, who has replaced Phillip Schofield, Holly had been off screens since leaving This Morning in October after 14 years on the sofa.
She left the show after an alleged plot to kidnap and murder her emerged, which followed Phillip Schofield leaving ITV after his affair with a younger showrunner came to light.
Gavin Plumb, 36, has pleaded not guilty to charges of incitement to murder and incitement to kidnap the former This Morning presenter. The security guard remains behind bars after being denied bail.
During a short hearing at Chelmsford Crown Court, Gavin Plumb, from Harlow, Essex, who was not present, had a bail application refused. His trial date is set for June 24 next year.
Lifestyle brand Holly's captioned the image: “It's time to welcome the first full moon of the year.”
