With the X Factor concluding for another series and the New Year beckoning, ITV have now officially confirmed the start dates for Dancing on Ice and Splash in 2014. Water and Ice, just what you need to warm yourselves up this winter.

First up, Olympic diver Tom Daley will return to induce vertigo in another batch of minor celebs, with series 2 of Splash premiering at the time of 7.20pm on Saturday, 4 January, on ITV.

Then the following evening at 6.15pm on Sunday, 5 January, also on ITV, Dancing on Ice 2014 hits our screens for the start of its special All-Star series.

In what looks set to be the celebrity figure skating shows ninth and final series, former contestants Suzanne Shaw, Bonnie Langford, David Seaman, Kyran Bracken, Zaraah Abrahams, Gareth Gates, Ray Quinn, Beth Tweddle, Todd Carty, Hayley Tamaddon, Gary Lucy, Sam Attwater, Jorgie Porter and Joe Pasquale return one more time for what’ll be the biggest DOI season ever.
