Dancing On Ice is back! Time to get your skates on #1

[TheSassyAssassin]

So the Strictly glitter has settled for another year but to fill the void we have the new series of DOI starting this Sunday at 6pm on ITV1.

Our presenters will be Phil & Holly and our judges are Jason Gardiner (he's the Craig!), Torvill and Dean, and Ashley Banjo (from Diversity).

There are 12 brave stars taking to the ice this year. ’Coronation Street’ actors Anthony Cotton and Brooke Vincent lead the way, alongside ‘Hollyoaks’ star Stephanie Waring, Good Morning Britain’s weather presenter Alex Beresford, Love Islander Kem Cetinay, former ‘Great British Bake Off’ champ Candice Brown, singer Lemar, rugby player Max Evans, former ‘X Factor’ contestant Jake Quickenden, Olympian Perri Shakes-Drayton, presenter Donna Air and Bucks Fizz member Cheryl Baker.

There has already been injury - Lemar has replaced cricketer Monty Panesar who literally crashed out with a broken ankle...ouch!

So come and join us...there will be dancing , there will be ice and there will be thread mascots

Ooh, AC not happy

Ha ! Jason agrees with me !

Snap! 🥂

Why are j and c on the judging panel if they score the same? No flow to AC 's routine. Kem faffed a lift but scored so much higher.

Oooh saucer of milk, Jason?

Just tuned in - is AC ok ? He seems a bit deranged !

AC is a tad annoying isn't he...

Like Kylie - the pro should have done a spinny thing at the end as a divert distract shock and awe it would backlash like Gio pirouetting with Laura but what the hey Anthony is hurting my ears

AC has not come on as far as I thought he might. Which is fine as he's clearly an arse.

Think AC had been on a sniff of the old ice powder......

I used to love DOI years ago. And I'd forgotten how it early it starts

I am persevering with it, but I miss Robin Cousins.

And Phil's glittery poo jacket is quite shocking.

Oh no! He's messed up! Then lost it.

Awful, he nearly dropped and was so out of time.

Gosh this isn't going well is it? Fluffed a fair bit.

I wish the cameraman would stop with the frequent and weird change of angles.

No idea who this celeb is but he looked knackered for most of that!

Really thought he was going to drop her then!

What is with the male outfits? Max's is awful

No drink this time!

damp squib for me

He's a rugby player Goosey.

Rahh "glittery poo jacket" spluttered my tea! That is so right.

Wow! J & C have scored differently!

My hair looks like Jayne's tonight. But she spent ages in the salon and I went for a walk on the beach.

he is Tham Evans brother - Monkseal has the incriminating photos ;-)
