Dancing On Ice 2012 continues tonight with the second live show of the series, as the remaining half of the celebrity skaters take to the ice for the first time.
Last Sunday saw Heidi Range, Andy Whyment, Charlene Tilton, Mark Rhodes, Chemmy Alcott, Andy Akinwolere and Jorgie Porter fight it out on the rink, with Andy Akinwolere becoming the first star to be sent packing.
Tonight will see Hollywood actor Corey Feldman, actress Jennifer Ellison, children’s TV presenter Sam Nixon, fitness guru Rosemary Conley, founder of freerunning Sébastien Foucan, actress Laila Morse, Emmerdale actor Matthew Wolfenden and TV personality Chico take to the ice to battle it out for their place in the competition.
Take a look at what they have to say ahead of their first skate below…
Jennifer Ellison
Age: 28
Skating partner: Daniel Whiston
I couldn’t cook when I went into Hell’s Kitchen and I did pretty well at that. I just need to learn to skate and I will be OK.
Laila Morse
Age: 66
Professional partner: Lukasz Rozycki
I can’t wait! I’m looking forward to the sparkles, false eyelashes and the spray tans; we’ll all skate out each Sunday looking like we’ve been tangoed.
Rosemary Conley
Age: 64
Professional partner: Mark Hanretty
Dancing On Ice has made me feel like I’m 25 again! My husband has said he’s never seen me so happy in the 28 years that we’ve been together!
Corey Feldman
Age: 40
Professional partner: Brooke Castile
I have no fear when it comes to confrontation, being direct, being honest, upfront but when it comes to say a paper cut, I’ll cry all day! I have a very low thresh hold for pain
Chico
Age: 40
Professional partner: Jodeyne Higgins
Whilst I’m really excited about being part of the new series of Dancing on Ice it’s not necessarily in the best of circumstances. I wish Chesney all the best and a speedy recovery. I will not just be skating for myself I will be skating for Chesney as well and do him proud
Matthew Wolfenden
Age: 30
Professional partner: Nina Ulanova
“I’m quite looking forward to the outfits! I’m going to be proper blinged up! The lads down the pub will take the mickey but they all want tickets!”
Sam Nixon
Age: 25
Professional partner: Alexandra Schauman
I’ve been looking at clips of Ray Quinn performing on Dancing On Ice which is stupid because there’s no way I’m going to be anywhere near as good as that!
Sebastian Foucan
Age: 37
Professional partner: Brianne Delcourt
Freerunning on land is very different to on ice so it’s a bit early to know if I can incorporate any of my moves, for now, I am still learning the basics.
