    Sir Paul McCartney's ex-wife Heather Mills is apparently among celebrities preparing to take part in the fifth series of Dancing On Ice.

    Mills will face competition from the Beatles singer's niece, comedian Emily Atack, as well as from Sinitta, Gordon Ramsay's wife Tana, EastEnders' Danniella Westbrook and Boyzone's Mikey Graham.

    The Sunday Mirror reports that Jeremy Sheffield, of Holby City, comedian Bobby Davro and Emmerdale's Hayley Tamaddon are also taking part.

    Ex-Coronation Street star Danny Young and TV doctor Hilary Jones will also compete, as will the former Olympic swimmer Sharron Davies.

    Dancing On Ice returns to ITV in January, with Emma Bunton confirmed to replace Ruthie Henshall on the judging panel.

    Emma Bunton the new judge :confused:

    The only one I've not heard of is Emily Atack. Still would've been interesting to have seen Arlene Phillips as a judge. Not sure what Emma will bring as a judge, will have to wait and see.

    She stars in the tv show The Inbetweeners

    Yeah, she might not have a fan base, I'd never heard of her, but she looks lovely.

    Aww I liked Sinitta :( Sharon is so wooden :(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,554 ✭✭✭✭alwaysadub


    thought Sharon would've gone ahead of Sinitta but i suppose nearly giving the poor fella a sex change didn't help her plight!
    Looking forward to seeing the lads next week..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,461 ✭✭✭Queen-Mise


    they are so many white ice puns I could make now about Danielle Westwood - but I am resisting !!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,185 ✭✭✭Snoopy1


    I say this every year, but sunday night really annoyed me. Why do Torvill and Dean have so much input?? That move they gave Sinitta was far too hard for her. Why doesnt the proffessional do some of the choreography. Why is the the 1st dance always Torvill and Dean. The proffessionals are younger, more flexible and would surely produce a better dance at the start.

    Also why does Phillip shout everything grrrr


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭DancingQueen:)


    Love the series, can't believe Sinitta went. Don't think she deserved it! but ah well. Can't wait to see the guys skating :)

    Because everything is so serious and dramatic!! :D Do you reckon are his digs at Jason Gardner just pantomine or do they genuinely dislike each other??? I have to say I like Jason, he is harsh but if you listen to him its good advice that he's giving if they'd actually take in what he says.

    Hope Mikey Graham does well, would be nice to see an Irish "celebrity" do well after the stints of Stephen Gately and Samantha Mumba.

    Enjoying this years Dancing on Ice, it's better than last years because as much as I liked Ray Quinn, he was soo far ahead of the rest there was no real competition element (although I loved the dishy Donal!)
    I was gutted Sinitta left- if Ray Quinn and Todd Carty had been in the skate off in 2009 and Ray had slipped would they have saved Todd?! :eek:
    I don't think she should have been made to do such a tricky and potentially dangerous lift on her first week anyway. I want Tana Ramsey or Heather Mills out next, not a fan of either. Poor Dr. Hilary tonight- could barely stay upright! :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 123 ✭✭brandodub


    Go Kieran-lift!!!!

    Great performance from Gary. (using his cute child to get votes, shameless!)
    EDIT: Go Robin, you show Jason who's boss!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 516 ✭✭✭Gloom


    Can someone tell me the name of the song played during the couple's routine before Sharon Davies and her partner? Thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭DancingQueen:)


    I <3 Mickey! and the show tonight was brillant :)

    Which couple was it?

    I don't know their names but it was the couple before Sharon Davies? I think they had a dispute with one of the judges over one of the moves performed aswell.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,863 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    Gary Lucy.. I think the song was Jason Mraz - 'I'm Yours'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 516 ✭✭✭Gloom


    Suhweeeet, that's it! Thanks!


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,863 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    No probs! Daniella undermarked there at the end in my opinion. :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 526 ✭✭✭mandz


    Poor Dr. Hilary, he should be voted out. Given the girls had an extra week to practice it didn't show tonight.

  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,863 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    No it didn't- I like that they're all very similar talent-wise this year. Poor Dr. Hilary should be voted out before he kills himself or his partner!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,405 ✭✭✭shinny


    It's really hard for Sharron (hated having to type two r's there!!) to look elegant and feminine !! I can't believe she stayed over Sinita anyway, so I hope she goes this week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,405 ✭✭✭shinny


    Noooooooooooooo!


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,863 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    My God- how are her and Dr. Hilary still in the competition? I was convinced she was a gonner over poor Jeremy. Drat. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,185 ✭✭✭Snoopy1


    What was Sharron wearing!!!!!


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,863 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    Oh my God. She's in great physical shape but *cringe*

    Oh god the annoying Heathe Mills is on the late late why is she everywhere?


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,863 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    She probably came over to get more D.O.I votes then someone told her we can't vote over here! :D


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,863 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    Was anyone watching on Sunday?
    Once again Sharron Davies was wearing a God-awful outfit, just terrible terrible! (Jason said she looked like 'fecal matter'!)
    Glad Tana Ramsey went, she wasn't the worst but she's pretty devoid of any personality apart from being dutiful wife to the Vile Gordon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,185 ✭✭✭Snoopy1


    I couldn't believe what Sharron was wearing. I even text my mum to say o could nearly see up her birth canal !!!!!
    I'm glad tana went she was so boring

    I know!! It was even risque for a beach holiday it was cut so high! And it doesn't help her physique- it just makes her look longer and more awkward!

    Yes i thought lask weeks costume/leotard thing was risky, but this was even worse. It was so high cut, lets hope they put her in something normal next week!!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 526 ✭✭✭mandz


    Yeah they seem to be dressing Sharron in awful costumes. Jason has come under fire for what he said they described what he was saying as 'bullying' her.

    I have to say at the moment my faves are Mikey Graham and Daniella Westbrook. I don't know how she didn't fall out of her costume to be honest on Sunday night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,185 ✭✭✭Snoopy1


    I didnt expect to like Daniella , but i do now. Mikey is my favourite as well.

    I wish they would stop asking him to comment on people whose confidence is already not great. They need encouragement, not belittlement.

    Me too! I didn't expect to like her at all, she's doing really well too.

    Love Mikey, his dance on Sunday was super.

    I have to say I love Jason. :D If they'd stop throwing their eyes up to heaven and moaning in most cases his advice is good. Of course there are times when he can be a bit harsh and I do feel sorry for the contestant. They seem to have it set up in a system as to who comments so they can easily arrange it that he's not commenting on the likes of Sharron but they don't. They know it gets a reaction. I actually don't like that guy Nicky that sits beside Jason.

    It's like he's trying to be the baddie but without the wit or charisma.. or personality of Jason. Good skater though, but no Robin Cousins. :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 526 ✭✭✭mandz


    Why do they keep dressing Sharron in a swimsuit for a costume?! Can they not give her a little skirt to make her look a bit more feminine. She skated well but didn't like her snipe at Jason it was good advice!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 90,227 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Hilary gone home it was expected though

    Mikey to win come the ice man :D

    About time the public seen sense. He wasn't really 'dancing' all he really did was skate in a circle holding on to his partner unlike the others. As was said on the show will only turn into a competition when he leaves.
