Horse racing pundit Chapman, who had taken over from the late presenter Tony Gubba, quit Dancing on Ice after just one episode.

• Viewers aren’t convinced by the Dancing on Ice reboot – but they definitely know who they want to leave the show first

Chapman had faced criticism from fans of the rebooted series, with many saying he sounded too much like he was commentating on horse racing.

Matterface regularly commentates on the evening Premier League match on Saturdays on talkSPORT, and has been at the radio station since 2010. He also works for ITV Sport and used to be a presenter on Sky Sports.
