Dancing On Ice competitor, Donal MacIntyre, has admitted that he doesn’t expect to last much longer on the ITV reality TV show.

The investigative reporter, told MSN: “Well, I have been an endangered species from the very first edition of the show, I survived that so I am hoping that my evolutionary progress in the ice skating tree of life will bring me through a couple more shows.”

“There is no chance of me winning it,” he aded, “but I hopefully won’t either kill myself of anybody else by the end of the show.

“It’s great, it’s been lots and lots of fun. I spend the day stealing Christopher Dean’s digestive biscuits and playing rugby with Ellery Hanley on ice.”
