Ice skating legends Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are to guest star in an episode of Emmerdale over the festive period.

Ice skating legends Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are to make a cameo appearance in Emmerdale this Christmas.

The pair - mainstays of ITV's Dancing On Ice - will be seen in an episode to help a "well-loved" character make a marriage proposal.

The scenes were filmed at an ice rink in Leeds with cast members including Mark Charnock (Marlon), Joe-Warren Plant (Jacob) and Dominic Brunt (Paddy) present.

"It is amazing being here," said Dean. "We have jumped from watching Emmerdale on TV to being in a scene. From the screen to the scene. I'm loving it."

Skate partner Torvill added: "I can't wait to watch the episode that we are going to be in. It will be surreal sitting at home watching it."

The soap's producer Laura Shaw said: "We are delighted to welcome Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean as our very special guests to Emmerdale. Torvill and Dean certainly promise to bring the Christmas magic sparkle to the show."

Emmerdale continues weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
