MacIntyre pens 'Dancing On Ice' book

Donal MacIntyre is penning a book about his time on ITV1's Dancing On Ice.

The investigative journalist, who finished runner-up to Ray Quinn, will chronicle his journey on the reality show in From Beginner To Bolero. MacIntyre was voted into the bottom two in the first week, survived the judges' vote-off, and went on to reach the live final.

"It is a kind of light-hearted whimsical diary on my time on the ice," he told PA.

"It's kind of really a travel book more than anything, about my times while I was training for Dancing On Ice around the world."

MacIntyre is rumoured to be organising a celebrity ice hockey match with his fellow Ice contestants to raise money for this year's Children In Need.
