Coronation Street actor Anthony Cotton looked apprehensive as he was snapped taking to the ice for the first time.
The star could be set to join the line-up for the rebooted ITV ice skating contest when it returns to screens in January after being cancelled in 2013.
Anthony, who plays Sean Tully in the soap, was pictured attempting an ambitious lunge move before looking to have a wobbly moment as he clung to the side of the rink, desperately trying to catch his balance on the slippery surface.
However, he wasn’t the only famous face taking their first figure skating steps.
Celebrity psychic Sally Morgan, 65, was also spotted giving it her best shot, learning the basic moves in the safe arms of one of the trainers.
Rugby star Max Evans, 33, who is also the brother of Thom Evans, 32, and the cousin of former Top Gear presenter Chris Evans, 51, also tried his luck on the ice, looking to take to it well as he demonstrated his skills gliding along unaided.
The snaps could reveal the first three contestants for the revived series, although producers are rumoured to be trialling up to 50 stars before making their final decision on who will compete.
