Dancing on Ice glides in to Newcastle
February 24, 2008
Dancing on Ice, the ITV hit show returns for its second live tour, stopping at the Newcastle Arena for two nights only, April 11th and 12th .
Andi Peters will return as compere of the live show; this a time around he will present to live audiences without the help of crutches having steered clear of the ice since his ankle break last year which he sustained during practice. He went on to present the show regardless of his injury.
All of the celebrities (inc Chris Fountain, Linda Lusardi, Gareth Gates, Kyran Bracken and Clare Buckfleid )will be trained and choreographed by mentors Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean (who will perform several of their favourite routines at each show) all over the UK.
The judging panel will be rink-side at each show to critique the celebrity routines. Olympic gold medal winner Robin Cousins will head the panel of ice judges, which includes Karen Barber, Nicky Slater and Jason Gardiner.
In addition, the Arena audiences will have a chance to vote. Replicating the format of the TV show, they will be able to use their mobile phones to text in their favourite celebrity dancing couple. The audience votes will then be added to the scores from the panel of ice judges to decide the winner. Once the votes have been counted, the winning celebrity will join their skating partner to perform a magical finale. As per last year, all profits from text voting will go to charity
