Steps star Ian 'H' Watkins and Coronation Street star Lisa George have become the latest celebrities to sign up for Dancing On Ice 2020! H, who is best known for being in the 90's pop group alongside Claire Richards, Lee Latchford-Evans, Lisa Scott-Lee and Faye Tozer, confirmed he was joining the celebrity line-up on Good Morning Britain.

He said, "What am I doing? I have frantically been You Tubing James Jordan and Ray Quinn. I have kids now so it's a skill I can learn and take my kids to the ice. It's scary and exciting and now there's no turning back. I know I'm going to be put through my paces and that's the name of the game."

Fans were pretty convinced H was joining the show, as one of the teaser pictures that Dancing On Ice show bosses posted on Instagram looked very like him...

Joining him is Lisa George, who is best known for her role as Beth Tinker on Coronation Street. Lisa has played the beloved character since 2011, and confirmed that she was taking part in the show on Lorraine.

She said, "I haven't been on the ice for about 40 years. Yesterday was my first session on the ice. It was good, I really enjoyed it, I did't fall. I was a bit scared, I was quite nervous. I can't believe I'm 50 next year and I just thought 'if I don't do this now I'm never going to have the chance to do it again'."

Lisa was also spotted in the teaser pictures, as fans were convinced it was her as soon as they saw it...

Perri Kiely

Diversity dancer Perri Kiely reunited with his dance-mate Ashely Banjo for Dancing On Ice 2020! He said, "I'm not going to lie, I'm a little bit nervous. I've had a couple of training sessions so far and I'm not going to lie, it's hard. I can stand up on ice and skate about a bit, but technique, it's difficult!" Of normally being the one to get thrown into the air, Perri said, "Role reversal! I'm pretty sure my job title was to get thrown about. I would love to back flip on ice, imagine how sick that would be! But I said I was going to get on the ice and spin and flip and do this, but I turned up to that first training session and I just wanted to put one foot in front of the other and make sure I don't fall over."
