Greg Rutherford will soon take to the ice rink this weekend alongside his professional partner Vanessa James and may have an advantage to some of his co-stars on Dancing On Ice for its latest series to hit TV screens.

The athlete not only previously competed on Strictly Come Dancing but his sporting background will undoubtedly give him a bit of an edge thanks to his stamina.

Greg holds an MBE, a gold medal and also won Celebrity MasterChef.
