John Barrowman wants to know if ‘Dancing on Ice’ will return.
The 53-year-old judge – who lives in America with his husband Scott Gill – is desperate for the ITV figure skating competition to return, and is eager to know when it will be back on TV, despite the coronavirus pandemic.
Speaking on ‘Lorraine’, John shared: "Nothing’s been said officially to me.
"However, if it does come back I know I will be there. I would like to know myself because I have to plan ahead. "I’ve got to plan flights, I’ve got to make sure everything is OK here before I go back. But it is something we need."
John believes the show could give the nation a "lift" amid the pandemic, and he would be happy to film the programme without a studio audience.
He continued: "’Dancing on Ice’ is such a great show.
"At the time of the year when everybody needs a bit of a lift anyway. This year, we’re gonna need an even bigger lift … if we have to do it this year without an audience, so be it.
"It’s left up to myself, Ashley [Banjo], Chris [Dean] and Jane [Torvill], and Phillip [Schofield] and Holly [Willoughby] and everybody in the studio to bring that energy across to the audience at home. I think it will be a challenge, but we’re up for it. So fingers crossed the show will be back."
The former ‘Torchwood’ star also let slip he could be making a grand entrance on the show, as he’s been planning to get back on the ice for some time.
He teased: "Maybe I’ll get on the ice this year. I’m gonna let you in on a secret, I’ll probably get in trouble but you know what they gotta get me first. There was a discussion, we were gonna do it.
"However, we didn’t have the time and couldn’t get people’s schedules together. I actually went on the rink with a couple of the pros to start working and doing stuff.
"I have my skates with me, and if you follow me on Instagram, you’ll see I got my skates out to start getting some stuff going."
