Torvill and Dean to star in Emmerdale Christmas scenes
Jane Torvill and Christopher Dean usually appear on screen early in the year as they judge celebrity skaters on Dancing on Ice.
The bolero-skating legends are used to being on TV but the world of soap is a step away from what they’re used to.
Now though, the skating partners are going to appear in Emmerdale for some very special Christmas scenes.
Filming for these scenes has taken place at a location in Leeds as the duo help a villager with their festive marriage proposal.
These scenes will air rather soon, with Christmas being just around the corner.

Jane Torvill added: “I can’t wait to watch the episode that we are going to be in. It will be surreal sitting at home watching it.”
Emmerdale Producer, Laura Shaw, said: “We are delighted to welcome Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean as our very special guests to Emmerdale. Torvill and Dean certainly promise to bring the Christmas magic sparkle to the show.”
