Zoe Salmon never got to wear anything like this when she presented Blue Peter. She's pictured with dance partner Matt EversPhotograph: John Rogers/ITVAs a former star of BBC1's Holby City, Jeremy Edwards will know exactly what to do if one of his co-stars has a nasty accident on the ice. Although given what happens to most of the patients who are wheeled onto Holby - and quite a few of the staff - perhaps he should leave them well alonePhotograph: John Rogers/ITVIntrepid investigative reporter Donal MacIntyre goes undercover to discover just how desperate celebrities have got to be to go on Dancing On Ice Photograph: John Rogers/ITV
Is there anyone from Liberty X, the band that grew out of a reality show (ITV's Popstars) who hasn't subsequently ended up on one? While her former Liberty X bandmate Michelle Heaton bounces around the Celebrity Big Brother house, Kevin Pietersen's fiancee Jessica Taylor will be flying across the ice. But will she hit the judges for six? Photograph: John Rogers/ITVGrange Hill, EastEnders, The Bill, Dancing On Ice. What comes next in this sequence, Todd Carty? Photograph: John Rogers/ITVOne of these people is a former Great Britain rugby league player. That's right, it's Ellery Hanley, with dance partner Frankie Poultney. He was very good as stand-off and loose forward. But will he be any good with a waist loop lift?Photograph: John Rogers/ITVPop quiz: which one of these is the celebrity, and which one is the ice dancer? It's the bloke of course! It's Ray Quinn, runner-up of ITV1's The X Factor. Some people seem to spend their entire TV career on reality shows. We're sure that won't happen to Ray Photograph: John Rogers/ITVWe'll give those smiles 4.8 for sincerity. It's singer Coleen Nolan and Stuart Widdall Photograph: John Rogers/ITVBrrrr! A practical joker cruelly swapped Melinda Messenger's ice skating costume for her beach outfit, but she soldiered on through the photoshoot regardlessPhotograph: John Rogers/ITVThis caption is sponsored by Google. Why it's (tap, tap, tappity tap) Gemma Bissix! She used to be in (tap, tap) EastEnders, Hollyoaks and an episode of Britannia High. According to IMDB: 'After leaving school she ran a pub for two years, sold electrical products for her family business and also worked as a bra measurer at Marks & Spencer before deciding to return to acting.' Frankly I'd take that with a pinch of saltPhotograph: John Rogers/ITVFormer Chelsea and England footballer Graeme Le Saux was once famous for reading the Guardian, so don't expect us to say anything snide about him here. Except that the jury's out as to who spent more time on their hair - Le Saux or ice dance partner Kristina LenkoPhotograph: John Rogers/ITVFirst name, Police song. Second name, what you stack bricks on. Yes, it's Emmerdale's Roxanne Pallett Photograph: John Rogers/ITVOh no, not him again! Relax, Michael Underwood, we're only kidding. The GMTV presenter trained as a reserve on the show in 2007 and was forced to quit last year's contest after breaking his ankle. He didn't take it well, you may remember. Third time lucky, Mike?Photograph: John Rogers /ITV
