David Seaman

Because I used to skate as a kid, but I was never taught.

I used to go to the local rink, you know, trying to impress the girls that you do and all that in Sheffield.

And I knew I could skate.

But the dancing side of it, I don't like dancing at all.

I know I can't dance.

I know I can't sing.

And I don't do it.

I don't even do it, even when I've had a few pints.

You know, so doing that, my love for ice skating overtook the realisation of wearing lycra and sequins and make-up and, you know, but waiting in the tunnel of Dancing With The Ice live for the second show.

The first show was...

Still pretty daunting, but we didn't know how many people were going to watch it.

I got through.

We found out the viewing figures peaked at like 14.4 million.

And we were like, oh my God.

So I'm waiting in the tunnel, nervous as anything.

But you played in World Cups.

I'm amazed that you were impacted in that way.

It's skating, and I'm totally out of my comfort zone.

And your mouth is so dry.

You go out and you have to stop in the middle.
