Football star, Graeme Le Saux has admitted that he did briefly regret signing up for this years series of Dancing On Ice after sustaining an injury last month.

Le Saux was rehearsing with his partner Kristina Lenko when he fell, banged his head and cut his lip.

“I really hurt myself,” Le Saux is quoted by the Daily Star as saying. “I started to think: ‘Why am I doing this?’

“I have fallen over lots of times but nothing this bad. As a footballer, I usually fall OK, but this time it really hurt. It took me a few days to get over it and heal up. I have now realised this can be a dangerous sport.”
