Ice skating superstars Torvill and Dean, have claimed that their reality TV show Dancing On Ice is much more tough than it’s BBC counterpart, Strictly Come Dancing.

The show’s stars suffer so many injuries that the insurance bill alone must be astronomical and Christopher Dean told The Sun: “With ours it’s the jeopardy, because they know it’s live.”

“What you’re seeing is what they’re doing and you know they must be scared out of their wits. It’s not being in the jungle. It’s outside of their comfort zone.”

Jayne Torvill said: “It’s definitely more difficult. You can’t just get up when you fall on the floor. It can go from beautiful to ugly in a second.”
