      <title>LIVE TOUR ATTRACTS RAVE REVIEWS</title>
      <description>The thrilling live spectale that is - the Dancing on Ice Tour 2008, is attracting fans across the UK.</description>
      <body>&lt;p&gt;Whether or not you are a regular watcher of the TV show, the huge appeal of the live show makes this a must-see family experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An extract from&amp;nbsp;The Times online review by Donald Hutera:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;...the cosy 2&amp;frac12;hour spectacle is undeniably polished, family-orientated entertainment, packed with glitter, gaffes and edge-of-the-seat excitement.&amp;nbsp;And I saw the iconic headliners Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean working their magic alongside a pack of other professional skaters, each paired with a moonlighting pop singer, actor, soap star, presenter or sporting figure.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

      <title>TORVILL &amp; DEAN TO PERFORM</title>
      <description>In addition to a gruelling schedule of celeb-training, the golden duo will perform routines on tour</description>
      <body>&lt;p&gt;What would Dancing on Ice be without it's premiere stars?&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All of the celebrities will be trained and choreographed by mentors Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean. You may be eager to see the celebs, but the icing on the cake (if you'll pardon the pun) on this tour, is the opportunity to watch the UK's ice-skating legendary duo perform...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We're thrilled to confirm that once again, Jayne and Chris will be performing several of their stunning ice-dance routines at each show on the tour.&lt;/p&gt;</body>
