Phillip Schofield used the Story feature to post a video of his co-presenter Holly Willoughby looking all glammed up before the camera panned to the rest of the crew. The blonde beauty looked incredible in her maroon-coloured dress. 

Have we set up a call centre on the side?

After taking notice of Phillip’s recording, Holly smiled at the camera as she lifted her glass filled with what appeared to be white wine. 

“Press day for @dancingonice,” the 59-year-old wrote on his Story’s post.

“Or have we set up a call centre on the side?” 

As the video continued to pan around the room, judge Ashley Banjo provided the entertainment with jokes as his fellow co-stars laughed in hysterics. 

A handful of wine bottles were seen on a table in the middle of the room.

Dancing On Ice returns to ITV on Sunday, with Ashley, Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean reprising their roles as judges on the programme. 

John Barrowman, who was axed following last year’s series, has since been replaced by Strictly Come Dancing’s Oti Mabuse. 

ITV confirmed John’s departure in October, having served as a judge for just two years.

“We thank John Barrowman for two brilliant years on the Dancing On Ice panel,” they said. 

“[We] are pleased to be working with him again as host of the forthcoming All Star Musicals specials.”

In an interview with The Mirror this month, Phillip touched on the Doctor Who star’s exit from Dancing On Ice, saying that Oti’s addition to the show was “amazing”.

Yet the father-of-two will miss John being part of the series, saying: “I adore John and obviously we will miss that larger than life personality.

“But in every panel you want to make sure each area is well and truly serviced.

“Oti will definitely be the one to pick them up on their dancing and their dancing skills and that’s really important.”

Phillip seemed rather excited to see the dynamic between the group of judges who all come from different dance backgrounds. 

“So, you’ve got Ashley [Banjo] with the overall showbiz nature and difficulty with the moves,” he added.

“Obviously Jayne [Torvill] and Christopher [Dean] who have ice skating sewn up and then you’ve got Oti who knows exactly what’s required.”

Dancing On Ice 2021 was won by Capital FM’s Sonny Jay, though multiple injuries and Covid had plagued the series as a whole. 

The first half of the contestants will be taking to the rink with their professional partners starting at 6.30pm on Sunday, while next weekend’s show will see the remaining six perform before one act is eliminated. 

The show will run for a whopping 10 weeks and conclude on March 20.
