In a chat with Hello! magazine Tom, who takes on John Travolta’s character Zuko, said of their friendship on the ski show: “I’d not skied that much before we went to Austria for that job, but I picked it up quite quickly.
"Whereas she took a little longer, so if she was on the floor having fallen over I'd go over and spray snow in her face," he said.
"But we have that kind of relationship. Really jokey. And you need that - we're on the road for 10 months and it'll be tedious at times, with eight shows a week, so I think it's good that we've got that humour and that good working relationship."
