The Iceman Cometh

We never thought we'd say this, but Dancing On Ice is turning out to be one of the most perve-worthy shows on TV. If you're partial to a pretty boy, you've got Chris Fountain and Gareth Gates to tickle your fancy; for those who prefer a more manly male, Steve Backley's more than acceptable; and, if you're in a mood for a nostalgia trip, well, pin-ups don't get much more nineties than Tim Vincent.

Some of the professional skaters aren't exactly ice-sores, either. Our favourite? Fred Palascak, the cheeky glider who skated with Sarah Greene until she was voted off, but now partners Zaraah Abrahams, the former Corrie actress who's just replaced Michael Underwood. Are we sobbing over Michael's untimely exit from the competition? With Fred back again, not a single tear.



In case you're wondering, Fred's holding onto Sarah Greene's bosom in the right-hand photo. (Yes, thanks to the wonders of image-cropping, it does look more like an arse.)
