"I can't wait to get my hands on those celebrities and knock them into shape," Dean told the newspaper.

Torvill said coaching novice celebrities could turn out to be as challenging for the duo as their 1984 gold medal win at the Sarajevo Olympics.

ITV Entertainment Chief Claudia Rosencrantz called the show an "ice-breaking new series."
