Dancing on Ice returns next year complete with 12 new celebrities trying to stay upright in front of millions of us watching at home.
The new Dancing On Ice contestants include TV soap royalty, pop stars and athletes.
On the judging panel will be Ashley Banjo, plus Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean.
But John Barrowman, who joined the judging panel in 2019, will not be part of the new series.

Barrowman stepped down after his behaviour at work was scrutinised earlier this year.
Capital FM presenter Sonny Jay won the 2021 show, despite the series being cut short due to many of the celebrities pulling out due to injuries or illnesses.
Who is your favourite to win the show in 2022, though?
Here's the full line-up:
Sally Dynevor
The first 2022 contestant unveiled was Coronation Street actress Sally Dynevor.
Sally appeared on ITV's Lorraine announcing the news saying: “This is a massive challenge, it really, really is. I’m not getting any younger, I’ve just got to take every opportunity I get so that when I’m old I can say you know what? I gave it a go.”
Bez
Happy Mondays star Bez announced his part in the show by popping out of a snowball on ITV's This Morning.
He said to presenters Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby: “At the moment it’s more like Bambi on Ice, not Dancing On Ice!"
Bez is no stranger to reality television being a previous winner of Celebrity Big Brother in 2005 and a semi-finalist on the 2021 series of Celebrity Masterchef.
Stef Reid
Paralympic medallist Stef Reid let Good Morning Britain viewers in on her Dancing On Ice secret.
The athlete won bronze in the 200m T44 at the Beijing Paralympics in 2008 and followed that up with silver in the long jump F44 at the 2012 London Paralympics and again in Rio in 2016.
Liberty Poole
Fresh out of Love Island, Liberty has already picked up a new gig.
Liberty's mum used to be a figure skater.
She said: "I ice skate as a hobby sometimes so I can get around the rink but I can't do any tricks, no pirouetting or anything so I'm really looking forward to pushing myself and learning as much as I possibly can. Bring it on!"
Ben Foden
Former England rugby star Ben Foden is swapping his boots for skates.
Ben has experience in TV talent shows, reaching The X Factor: Celebrity semi-final in 2019.
Ben said about the new challenge: "I used to skate a little when I was a kid. I’d go to ice discos when I was 15, 16 and you’d always see these kids that could do pirouettes that had a proper dancing background."
Regan Gascoigne
Dancer Regan Gascoigne is the son of former England footballer Paul Gascoigne.
He shared the news of his ice skating challenge with his Instagram following, writing: "The Universe moves in mysterious ways! I love watching @dancingonice every year! I just never thought this would actually happen to me."
Rachel Stevens
Former S Club 7 star Rachel Stevens announced her place in the series on This Morning.
“It now feels really real, this is really happening," she said.
"I’m so excited, obviously really nervous.
"It's one of those things, until you do it you don’t know what’s going to happen."
Could Rachel, who came second in Strictly Come Dancing back in 2008, be a good shout to win the ice dancing contest?
Brendan Cole
If Rachel Stevens has a dancing background, then Brendan Cole really does.
He will be switching his dancing shoes for ice skates, after announcing his appearance on Loose Women.
“I’m so, so excited. It’s been a while coming now.
"I’ve known I’d be doing the show for quite some time and I want to get started, I’m so excited to be on the show," he said.
Previous Strictly pro alumni turned Dancing on Ice contestant, James Jordan, walked away with the crown in 2019.
So clearly a dancing background helps if Brendan can just master the ice!
Kye Whyte
Great Britain's first ever BMX Olympic medallist, Kye Whyte, will be trying his hand at ice skating when he enters the rink next year.
“When I did the audition I kind of related it to roller-skating so I think I did pretty well… I think the thing I’m really confident about is I don’t really mind if I fall, I’m quite fearless,” he told CBBC Newsround.
Ria Hebden
Entertainment reporter Ria Hebden will be the subject of stories as she enters the rink next year.
She told Lorraine: “It’ll be fun. This is one of ITV’s most sparkly shows so when they asked me I was like absolutely, we watch it at home."
"It will be brilliant to learn a new scary skill," said Ria of her decision to take up the ice-dance challenge.
Kimberly Wyatt
Pussycat Doll, Kimberly Wyatt, will also join the Dancing On Ice cast.
She told one of her bandmates, Ashley Roberts, on Heart Breakfast: “I have signed up for Dancing on Ice! I’m nervous, that ice is going to hit hard.
"I’m just excited to see what I can do on there. I’m up for a challenge!”
Could her performing background also give her a shot at DOI glory?
Connor Ball
The Vamps bassist Connor Ball completes the line-up. He excitedly shared the news on Capital Breakfast.
However, he didn't fill his fans with confidence, saying: "I’m quite clumsy, accident-prone. Ice is hard!
"It was pretty hard to keep the secret. The rest of the band know. They’re super excited for me.”
The 14th series of Dancing On Ice will be on ITV early in the New Year.
