Holly Willoughby made sure to make a splash as she returned live to ITV on Tuesday night. The TV star was back hosting The Games on the channel alongside Freddie Flintoff.
After appearing from Crystal Palace during the first episode of the series on Monday (May 9), the competition moved over to the London's Aquatics Centre for some action in the pool. It kicked off with the Men's Freestyle, which once again saw Wes Nelson emerge victorious, before the six male and six female celebrities paired up for the second round of synchronized diving.
It was then over to another pre-recorded event, the Canoe Slalom at The Lee Valley White Water Centre which saw Manchester's own Ryan Thomas, best known for playing Jason Grimshaw in Coronation Street, come out top, topping the leaderboard for the first time in the series so far.

But away from the sporting action, viewers were left divided tonight as host Holly, 41, wasn't just appearing on ITV as she also appeared on BBC One at the same time. The presenter was back on-screen in the latest, pre-recorded episode, of Freeze The Fear with co-host Lee Mack on the BBC.
So it became somewhat a battle with herself as she made a double telly appearance while taking a break from her usual hosting gig on This Morning, where she has been replaced for the week by Rochelle Humes. But her appearance on two of the main channels didn't go down well with everyone.
