Iain Lee said he'd be happy to step up to commentate on Dancing On Ice
Nope, the show has been thrown into chaos after commentator Matt Chapman dramatically QUIT the series following just two hours behind the mic.
And Matt - who had taken over from the late legendary broadcaster Tony Gubba - has now chose to "hang up the skates" and walk out of the rebooted show. Many said he sounded too much like he was commentating on horse racing.
Speaking to The Sun, Matt claimed it was his decision to walk away from the show, saying: "I've chose to hang up my skates, leave the rink and return to the turf and I wish the show the best of luck for the rest of the run".
Insiders claimed he chose to quit the show due to a schedule clash, with a source telling the paper: 'Matt decided he couldn't make his diary quite work as he thought.
