A new ice rink inside the world-famous stadium set up just before Christmas will put skaters at the scene of some of Britain's greatest sporting moments - just keep off the grass! The rink, the biggest in Britain, will follow the outside of the pitch where England beat Croatia 5-1 this week to qualify for the World Cup finals in South Africa.
