Michael Underwood is hoping that it is third time lucky when he competes on Dancing On Ice 2009.

Michael was a reserve for the 2007 series, then dropped out early last year after he broke his leg during rehearsals. This year he will be partnered with the gorgeous Melanie Lambert.

Michael’s career started when he won a six week CBBC presenting contract on Gaby Roslin’s BBC television show Whatever You Want. He has since worked on CITV, Jungle Run and GMTV.
