TV's ice stars skate into Blackpool
A HOST of famous faces skate into town tonight for Kyran Bracken's ice party.
The former England Rugby international created the show after winning ITV's Dancing On Ice in 2007.
And the 37-year-old has persuaded investigative journalist Donal Macintyre, actress Clare Buckfield and East Enders star Todd Carty to join him for the week-long run at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
"I'm very excited to be performing in Blackpool," said Bracken.
"The arena has an amazing history of skaters and it's an honour to be here."
EastEnders star Carty was a famous flop on Dancing on Ice, but he admits he's looking forward his Fylde coast visit for different reasons.
"My kids were delighted when I told them I was coming to Blackpool," he revealed.
"They love the rides so it looks like I might have to go on a few rollercoasters. I don't know what's more dangerous, the rides, or me skating on the ice!"
TV judge Karen Barber and X Factor finalist Marisa Billitteri are also set to perform.The show opens at Blackpool Pleasure Beach and runs until October 31. For tickets, call 0871 222 9090.
