The 40-year-old soap actress - who plays Leanne Battersby on the show - will appear on the upcoming 11th series of the popular ITV skating competition this weekend, but she is now skating on thin ice when it comes to learning her 'Corrie' lines after she mistakenly left her pages at home today (03.01.19).
She wrote on Twitter: "Big few days for @dancingonice big rehearsals, some amazing pro skater routines....just thought i would try and learn my @itvcorrie scripts while the pros do their thing...... left scripts at home (sic)."
Jane has previously revealed her 36-year-old co-star Samia Longchambon - who plays Maria Connor on the ITV soap - "encouraged" her to sign up for the show after appearing on the series back in 2013.
Speaking to Digital Spy, Jane - who is partnered on the show alongside Samia's pro ice skater husband Sylvain Longchambon - said: "Samia is one of my best friends. She said, 'It's really hard, you'll ache, you'll be tired, but you've got to do it!'
"She really encouraged me to do it.
"So, because all my friends have done it, I thought, they've all been through the same process ... and they've been really supportive and I think that helps.
"When people are really encouraging, it makes you think, 'Maybe I can do this rather than being fearful of it.' "
Brian McFadden, Wes Nelson, Didi Conn, Richard Blackwood and Saara Aalto are also among the celebrities taking part on the show this year.
