Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby reveal how they walk on ice without ice skates on Dancing on Ice

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield seem to have their skating skills down.

In fact when the presenting duo introduce Dancing on Ice each week, they're so talented they don't even need skates to stay afoot.

It seems like a miracle, doesn't it?

Sorry to disappointed, but despite being entertaining and talented, the pair aren't also able to walk on ice as far as we know.

Phillip revealed the secret behind their apparent skills after fans of the show started questioning just how they were doing it.

Speaking on This Morning, the host explained that there's an invisible white carpet that is laid out before the show starts so they're able to walk in their normal shoes.

“If Holly and I go onto the ice they put white carpet out, and we walk in our normal shoes on white carpet," he explained.

But even when there isn't a carpet, there's another hack that lets them get away with not skating themselves.

"If we have to go out without the white carpet, there are special snow gripper things you put onto the bottom of your shoes," he said.

That explains it!

But Max Evans forgot the carpet was there during the launch episode and took a tumble. Ouch!

He wasn't the only one to fall during the competition though, as professional skater Ale Izquierdo was rushed to hospital this week after suffering a nasty accident.

Dancing on Ice continues this Sunday at 6pm on ITV.
