The Dancing on Ice judges will travel to Alaska in the upcoming special to make their dream of skating outdoors a reality, but they will also see the effects of climate change first hand. Jayne said:

‘I’ve always dreamed of being out in nature, skating outside and this was the most perfect opportunity to achieve that, whilst also seeing the reality of climate change with our own eyes’.

Ever since they were younger, the skaters have dreamed of performing on a frozen mountain lake instead of an artificial ice rink, and now the pair are able to fulfil their lifelong wish.

However, it is not as easy as it seems because climate change has melted the ice, so Torvill and Dean must travel across Alaska to find the perfect spot to perform. Christopher admitted the effects of global warming are “truly devastating”, but he hopes the documentary will encourage people to take care of the planet.

He added:

‘This is an extraordinary chance for us to skate out in the open with no constraints or the barriers of a rink. To discover how quickly the ice is disappearing is truly devastating. We hope it will be a reminder not to take our precious planet for granted’.

The film is narrated by Stephen Fry and executive produced by Archie Baron for Wingspan Productions, and it has been commissioned for ITV by Jo Clinton-Davis.

Jo said:

‘We’re delighted to be bringing this festive treat to ITV viewers this winter. Jayne and Chris are genuine skating icons and in pursuit of a dream that inspired their careers. In this film they will be searching wild Alaska for the perfect ice-skating setting – in a world where the ice is rapidly disappearing.

‘With breath-taking scenery and their usual exquisite attention to detail, their unique performance is not to be missed’.
