MATT Richardson feels grateful he had little warning about his Dancing On Ice debut because otherwise he would've overthought it all.

The 29-year-old comedian has been a stand-in for the ITV figure skating show since October and will take to the ice on Sunday's forthcoming show.

Matt's stepping in to replace fellow comedian Rufus Hound - who was axed from the programme this week after he tested positive for coronavirus.

But the figure skating debutant felt confident and admitted he will go into his first routine "without too much trepidation".
