Phillp Schofield dicusses Dancing on Ice return

Phillip Schofield has been talking about the return of Dancing on Ice.

Speaking to The Sun’s TV buzz Magazine, Phil says he thinks Christine Bleakley will have no problem filling Holly Willoughby’s shoes. He says "Holly and I are looked after by the same management, so I knew a while ago that we were getting into a problem with dates if she did The Voice."

"There's no question that Holly's gutted she can't do Dancing On Ice, but she got a gig she couldn't possibly refuse. If I was her I would have done the same thing. “I’m sure that's a tradition that will be continued, there will be no shortage of va-va-voom with Christine." Phillip revealed his opinion towards his new co-host being booted from Daybreak, "I think Adrian and Christine gave it their best shot, you just have to pick yourself up, dust yourself down and move on."

Phillip also talks about the replacement of Emma Bunton and Jason Gardener on the judging panel; "When it comes to Jason, if I'm completely honest you just shake your head and tut in disbelief. But then you say: 'That was bloody great telly.' As far as I'm concerned, Jason was fantastic." Though Phillip has eyed up new judge Katarina Witt, "I have goggled her Playboy pics...good lord, that's a turn up for the books!" On new judge Louie Spence; "How long will it be before he does the splits on top of the desk?"
