Appearing on Heart Radio, Love Island star Taylor, 34, said: “I’m somewhere between absolutely terrified and very excited and I keep flitting between the two quite aggressively throughout the day.

“I’ve not even started stretching yet, I need to.”

He added: “I can skate but my dad got the snakehips, unfortunately I didn’t inherit that genetically from him.”

The Only Way Is Essex star Edgar, 34, told the radio station: “I’m looking forward to it but the thought of the live shows and performing is very real.”

He added: “I like to think I can ice skate a little bit but I’m a terrible dancer so that bit is going to need some work.”

Also on the radio station, soap star Healey, 36, said: “I’m ready, I’m good to go, let’s go! I’ve got a bit of rhythm but skating on ice is completely different, I’m excited.”

She added: “I’m most excited for the live shows, getting to perform live every week will give me a buzz, I can’t wait for the live shows.”

Springwatch star Strachan, 58, announced her appearance on ITV show Lorraine and revealed she had been considered for the show twice before.

She said: “It’s going to be a big challenge. I think the last time I was on ice was probably four years ago when I took some kids to skate round and I’m not one of these (people) that holds on to the sides… and because I trained as a dancer I’ve got a bit of balance, I guess.

“But I have no idea, Lorraine, whether I’m going to be good, average or really rubbish.”

She added: “I’ve always been one of those people that would say ‘Yes, I’ll do that’.”

Last year, Holly Willoughby returned to present Dancing On Ice, this time with a new host in the form of Stephen Mulhern, with whom she previously presented ITV Saturday morning children’s show Ministry Of Mayhem.

Mulhern replaced Phillip Schofield after he resigned from ITV having admitted to a relationship with a male This Morning employee.

Soap star Ryan Thomas and his ice skating partner Amani Fancy won this year’s competition.
