She added: “I’m actually going back to do the one-off Christmas special. You will see me back on the ice. They want me involved and it is an amazing experience.”

Explaining that she went in for a meeting with the show’s bosses, Gemma revealed that she asked if there was “any way” they could get her back “full-time”.

She added: “I was like: ‘Can’t you make me a judge?’ Because me and John Barrowman would get on famously. You never know, they might have a mad moment and put me in.”

Partnered with Matt Evers, she showed her diva side by sleeping during rehearsals. She also hit the ice mid-routine and fell out with now-departed judge Jason Gardiner.

Gemma was thrilled when he quit the show, calling it “karma” after he said she lacked elegance on the ice and likened her to a “fridge”.
