Bobby Brazier enjoyed the benefits of some R&R with his dad Jeff and younger brother Freddie on Sunday, after putting in another smooth performance on Strictly Come Dancing.
The 20-year-old, who has proven to be a favourite during this year’s series, scored an impressive 32 points on Saturday night as he and professional dance partner Dianne Buswell, 34, tackled a Viennese Waltz.
Anton Du Beke said it was the ‘best dance’ Bobby had performed thanks to his ‘confidence which makes you sweep across the floor’, while head judge Shirley Ballas added: ‘I was absolutely delighted with it.’
Although some viewers were united in complaining over one particular element of his performance, the couple made it through to another week with relatively little stress – although Bobby did have to face up to losing his confidante Eddie Kadi, as the comic and radio DJ lost in the dance-off against Zara McDermott.
This appeared to be in marked contrast to the previous week, where both Bobby and Dianne had caused concern among viewers by looking ‘off’, with the model and actor later revealing why he was actually ‘proper deflated’.
Celebrating his survival to dance once more, dad Jeff, 44, took him and the more media-shy Freddie, 19, alongside his wife Kate Dwyer to recuperate at an ice bath and sauna session out in the countryside.

Sharing photos and clips from their visit to the Croft Farm Escape against the stunning backdrop of Hertfordshire, Jeff praised his youngest and partner for their ‘good effort’ when plunging into the ice bath.
‘Great to help @bobbybrazier recover for another week of hard work! (Thanks to those that voted for him ❤️),’ the proud dad added.
Sharing a group photo of them posing in brightly coloured cover-up jackets in the sunshine on the deck, Jeff also posted a clip of EastEnders actor Bobby sitting pretty comfortably in the metal ice bath as he took in the gorgeous view.
He also messed around with Freddie as he rubbed a big ice cube on his chest just to make sure he was cold enough during his freezing dip.

‘We enjoyed it so much I’ve invested in one for the garden 💪🏻❄️,’ the TV presenter revealed in his caption.
Jeff, who found fame by starring on Shipwrecked in 2001, shares his two boys with late ex-partner Jade Goody.
The Big Brother star died of cervical cancer in 2009 aged just 27.
Talking to Metro.co.uk recently, Jeff explained why it was no one should expect the less public Freddie to follow in his older brother’s footsteps and compete on Strictly.

‘Freddie has spent his whole life looking at his older brother and that is difficult for most siblings,’ he said.
‘No, I don’t think Freddie wants to do reality programmes and he hasn’t been inspired to do what his brother has done because whenever Bobby has done something, whether it’s karate or football, Freddie’s been like “I’m not doing that,” because it’s something that he doesn’t have to measure up to his brother or against him.’
He added: ‘All I’m describing is something that happens in most families, Freddie wants to forge his own path, his qualities are immense in terms of his emotional intelligence. So I’m really excited for his future, but there’s no pressure on Freddie to follow in anyone’s footsteps whether that be Bobby, mine or his mum.’
