Filming for a popular reality TV show is set to return to studios near Watford.
ITV has applied to film the upcoming 17th season of Dancing on Ice at its facility at Bovingdon Airfield Studios, according to a premises licensing application submitted to Dacorum Borough Council.
Dancing on Ice has been based at a purpose built facility at the former airfield since 2018, which has also played host to Michael McIntyre's The Wheel and The Masked Singer.
Filming would take place between 9am and 7pm from Monday to Thursday, until 10pm on Friday and Sunday, and as late as 11.59pm on Sundays, according to the application submitted in August.

ITV said parking will be managed by traffic marshals, while local businesses will be warned in advance to prepare for an increase in business during filming.
