‘Holidaying with Jane McDonald’ sees the star go back to her roots as she explores Scotland.

It sees her visit Edinburgh’s spectacular Christmas market, then traveling north for whisky-tasting and bauble-making.

However, Jane suffered a horrible fall as she attempted to play the sport curling.

She revealed she had fond memories of her mum taking her to watch the sport so brought her friends Julie, Alywn and Sue along to try it out.

As she prepared to take to the ice, McDonald said: “Some people might say that women of a certain age and declining bone density shouldn’t be mucking about with stones on solid ice, but I say stuff it, I’m going in!”

After a quick safety demo the women then got started.

Jane was given an additional stone to help with her balance as she gave the game a go.

But it wasn’t long before things took a turn, with the star saying: “Oh hang on a minute, a bit of cramp. Clearly, I needed a little longer to limber up.”

She then lost her balance and slammed into the ice, landing on her back.

Not one to give up, Jane quickly got back on her feet and continued to try her best at curling.

Afterwards, she admitted: “In fairness, I don’t actually know who won, or if we were following the rules but we had so much fun. I take my hat off to you.

“That was incredible, we had a good time! 2026 Olympic Team here I come! But let’s leave with our heads held high and hips still intact.”

Fans at home clearly enjoyed the show as one posted: “Seeing Jane McDonald on the tv instantly cheers me up, what an icon she is! we need more shows!”

Another said: “Having a fantastic time watching. Christmas and Jane McDonald… Perfect.”

“Jane McDonald for the next Winter Olympics,” said a third.

While a four remarked: “Watching this now. An utter delight. Jane McDonald, the Scottish Highlands? What’s not to like?”

Holidaying with Jane McDonald is available to stream now on My5.
