THE theatre tour of hit television series Dancing on Ice is coming to the north west and Hollyoaks actor Chris Fountain, who narrowly missed out on being champion, spoke to the Warrington Guardian this week.

Chris said: "It will be nervewracking at first but it's always like a mini-competition. I think it will be a wicked experience."

Chris, who lost out to Suzanne Shaw, says he enjoyed adding the wow factor to routines with impressive moves, such as the axel jump.

"We (Chris and partner Frankie Poultney) will be doing Cry Me a River and Livin' La Vida Loca on the tour."

The theatre audience will be able to text vote for their favourite dancing couple. The winning celebrity will join their skating partner for the finale dance.

Ice-skating heroes, Torvill and Dean will perform at each show which will be judged by TV judges and Olympic gold medal winner Robin Cousins.

The tour will be showing at the Liverpool Echo Arena from May 2 to 5. For more information, call 0844 8000 400.

Chris will not be appearing in the Monday show due to filming commitments with Hollyoaks.
