Torvill and Dean to star in Dancing on Ice tour
Skating stars Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are to star in a fourth UK Dancing on Ice live tour starting in April.
Former contestants from the show Gaynor Faye, Chris Fountain and Ray Quinn will join the pair together with Mikey Graham, who is dancing in the current series of the ITV programme. More celebrities will be announced later.
The five-week tour will kick off in Sheffield Arena on April 8 and the stars will go on to perform in arenas across the country.
The tours follow the same format as the ITV1 programme, with the live audiences using their mobile phones to text vote for their favourite performer. Profits from the text voting go to charity and £80,000 has been raised to date.
