Didi will be hoping to impress skating legends Torvill and Dean, who lead the judging panel once again.
Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby are also back as hosts of the show.
On joining the show, Didi said: "Boy oh boy, I'm going from being a Pink Lady to Queen of the Ice. I'm coming to the UK on Monday and I can't wait to see you!"
