Chris Taylor

Michaela Strachan

Springwatch presenter Michaela Strachan is ready for the "big challenge" of Dancing On Ice.

"It's going to be a big challenge the last time I was on ice was four years ago when I took the kids, I'm not one of those people who holds onto the sides I guess because I was trained as a dancer I've got a bit of balance," she said.

During a chat on Lorraine, she added: "I've always been one of those people who says yes, I'll do that."

Dan Edgar
