Skating on Thin Ice

Skating on Thin Ice was a short-lived Australian celebrity reality television programme broadcast on the Nine Network in 2005. Hosted by Jamie Durie, nine celebrities learnt to skate with the ultimate goal being to perform with Disney on Ice, with proceeds going toward children's charity, CanTeen.

The celebrities included:

  • Deni Hines - singer
  • Kim Kilbey - presenter
  • Imogen Bailey - model
  • James Blundell - singer
  • Belinda Green - former beauty queen
  • Regina Bird - Big Brother 3 winner
  • Vince Sorrenti - comedian
  • David Whitehill - presenter of Hot Source
  • Peter Everett - presenter and home designer

Nine revived the concept more successfully in 2006 as Torvill and Dean's Dancing on Ice, also hosted by Durie.
