ITV reveal details on 2024’s Dancing On Ice

Dancing on Ice today confirms its line up of professional skaters for the forthcoming 2024 series. 

Returning to the show are Vanessa Bauer, Colin Grafton, Mark Hanretty, Brendyn Hatfield, Sylvain Longchambon and Tippy Packard.

After a break of one series and having both first featured on the show in 2013, Andy Buchanan and Robin Johnstone will also be back on the ice.

Meanwhile, Matt Evers announces his departure from the show, after a glittering fifteen series run and having been part of the professionals line up since the very first series in 2006. Fellow series regulars Alexandra Schauman and Łukasz Różycki will also be taking a break from the forthcoming series.

Philip has gone, but will Holly be back?

The greatest show on ice will also be welcoming four brand new skaters:

Amani Fancy – Two time British national champion, has previously appeared on the German version of Dancing on Ice

Vanessa James – Six time French national champion who represented Canada at the 2022 Winter Olympic games

Annette Dytrt – Former German and Czech national champion, also appeared on the German version of Dancing on Ice

Simon Senecal – Former Armenian national champion and Winter Olympian

Karen Barber and Daniel Whiston will also return to the show as Head Coach and Creative Director respectively.

As the 2024 celebrities begin their intense training regime, the professional pairings will be revealed over the coming weeks. ITV have yet to announce who will be replacing former host Phillip Schofield who quit ITV after an affair with a young man, legal but unwise, was exposed in the press. It is also unclear whether Holly Willoughby, who quit This Morning earlier in the month following a threat to her life, will return to the ice skating show next year.

Dancing on Ice is back on ITV1, STV and ITVX in 2024.
