Dancing On Ice star goes above and beyond to avoid the skate-off!

Let's hope there's no crash landing!

Hold on, are we seeing things, or has Antony Cotton quit Dancing On Ice and got a new job in the process?

Before you all start to panic, Antony was, in true actor style, researching his latest part for tonight’s show.

Antony, along with professional partner Brandee Malto, took a crash course in being cabin crew aboard a Virgin Atlantic flight in honour of their routine.

Tonight will see TWO of our celebrity couples saying goodbye in the show’s first double elimination.

Donning the airline’s outfits, the pair were busy on board the plane, Antony looking smart in a fetching brown suit with name tag, a grey waistcoat and red tie.

And Brandee was rocking the lady’s version of the uniform and looked great in the bright red suit.

For anyone thinking he might have been getting away with any rehearsal, he was still practising with the ice.

Mainly when he was serving passengers on the flight their drinks from the trolley, including snacks as well, of course!

Oooh double vodka and tonic for us please Antony!

They were also treated to the Coronation Street star’s dulcet tones as he took to the in flight announcements.

Wonder if he had to explain where the exits were?

The star also added to the fun by posting a picture of his badge with the caption “Just gonna leave this here” which seemed to manage to get fans in a right old tizzy.

Some thought the actor was giving up the cobbles and heading for a life of travelling…

He also tweeted about his experience…
