Last month it was revealed that next year’s series of Dancing On Ice would be the last but it appears that this may no longer be the case.

Apparently show producers are considering bringing the skating competition back but without Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean who said they would be hanging up their skates in 2014.

Jayne and Christopher might be replaced by other skating professionals. 

TV Biz claims that the programme, which is one of ITV’s most popular and expensive productions, could survive with two new professionals to coach the celebrities.

A source explained: “The show is still massive for ITV. But when Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean decided to go, it gave Peter Fincham a reason to get rid of it.”

Last month it was announced that the show will finish after next year's series. 

The insider added: “Yet many at ITV Studios think that was the wrong decision. Jayne and Christopher leaving is a big deal and it will be incredibly hard to replace them – but not impossible.

“To say that they are the only telegenic skating pros who could fill the role would be wrong. So watch this space.”
