A BUDDING young ice skater from Bolton was treated to a very special lesson from a former Olympic champion when she visited Chester Zoo's Frost Fair.
Robin Cousins, who was also head judge on ITV's Dancing on Ice, passed on helpful tips to eight-year-old Emily O'Brien, from Cox Green Road, Egerton, after she won a competition hosted by radio station Smooth FM. The Frost Fair runs at Chester Zoo until January 13 and features an ice rink, carousel and other festive activities.
