The Aussie choreographer, dubbed ‘Mr Nasty’, is used in 39 different clips in the two-hour special

Included are bust-ups with reality star Gemma Collins, 40, and ­Benidorm actor Tim Healy, 69, and a spat which reduced choreographer Karen Barber, 59, to tears.

There is also footage of him calling Towie star Lauren Goodger, 34, a “walrus on ice” and accusing TV host Andrea McLean, 51, of having too much Botox.

Fans have complained the show is “boring” without Jason, who left in 2019.

ITV bosses are also set to rile Sky presenter Kay Burley, 60, suspended for breaking lockdown rules, by showing a clip of her branding her skating partner a “silly c**t.”
