Coronation Street star Mollie Gallagher looked very different to her soap character as she debuted her makeover on ITV's Lorraine. The actress, known for playing Nina Lucas in the Salford-based soap, appeared on the morning show as she was revealed as the next contestant for Dancing On Ice.
Mollie is the fifth celebrity to be announced for the ITV skating show's 2023 series, hosted by Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, ahead of its return in the new year.
She joins Olympic bronze medal-winning gymnast Nile Wilson, Love Island winner Ekin-Su Culculoglu, football star John Fashanu and former EastEnders actress and DJ Patsy Palmer in the line-up for Dancing On Ice 2023.

Lorraine Kelly was given the responsibility of announcing Mollie's participation in the popular show with the Corrie actress making her entrance through the sliding big screen in the Lorraine studio on Thursday morning (October 6). The soap star looked stunning as she made her way to her seat.
Mollie debuted her freshly dyed locks on the programme as she chatted to Lorraine, 62, about being the latest Corrie star to swap the cobbles for the ice rink, following in the footsteps of 2021 contestant Sally Dynevor, as well as Antony Cotton, Samia Longchambon, Brooke Vincent to name just a few.
Mollie, who introduced her two-toned hairdo last year, first showed off her change over the weekend on Instagram. Sharing various snaps, she showed how she'd added even more of the icy blonde shade to her jet black locks and with some added auburn mixed in for the new autumn season.
