This is another of my ‘bad photo – good memory’ entries into Project 52. It’s a sneakily snapped iPhone shot of Jayne Torvil and Christopher Dean at the filming of Dancing on Ice last night, which I went to with DorkyGranny.
I’d never watched the show on television, so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it was a really fun evening. There was lots of banter between the presenters and the judges during the ad breaks, plenty of doughnuts to keep our energy levels up, and we had great seats just a couple of rows from the front, so we had a clear view of all the skaters during their performances.
My only disappointment was not managing to get a pic of Phillip Schofield (even a blurry one!), who I’ve loved since I was about DorkySon’s age – I remember him presenting from the Broom cupboard with Gordon the Gopher!
