Brendan Cole is currently skating up a storm on the latest series of Dancing on Ice, but the show is far from his only venture into reality TV. Although Brendan made his name as one of the original pros on Strictly Come Dancing, back in 2006 he made an appearance as one of the contestants on Love Island.
