James, 40 - who is married to Ola Jordan - is certainly expected to impress given his extensive dance training which saw join BBC's Strictly in 2006 as a professional, before leaving the show in 2013.

'I want to be able to impress Torvill and Dean more than anyone else, but I'm a lot worse than I thought I'd be.'
'He made me do it!' She confessed, 'He shamed me into saying OK I'll do it. He shamed me into it. So I'm doing this for my kids, I'm not doing it for the money. I can't skate.'

Whilst Gemma is a novice, Richard admitted he's got a lot of skating experience.
He revealed: 'I grew up in Sweden so I used to skate out there. Frozen lakes, on the way to school and stuff, a lot of people don't know that'
And despite Gemma quipping: 'Now I'm about to pull out of the show', Richard revealed he's not feeling overly-confident.
'I can skate but I normally dance on dry land,' he said, 'dancing and skating are two different things. I can move, I can shake my stuff.'
A host of famous faces, including Jane Danson, Emma Atkins, and Brian McFadden, have been rumoured for the show but Phillip Schofield - who hosts Dancing On Ice with Holly Willoughby- ruled out one name.
Reading out a list of rumoured hopefuls, he commented: 'Rylan Clark-Neal - Rylan will never do it, he can skate but he's always said he'll never do it.'

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
