Stars head to the slopes of Dubai

After being inspired by her Canadian "show-off" co-star, Brendan Fraser on Sunday, the child actress Eliza Bennett booked two ski lessons at Ski Dubai for Tuesday.

A source close to the British actress said Brendan was "in his element" as he showed everybody what he could do on the snow. "At one point he was even skiing backwards."

Bennett, of Nanny McPhee fame, has never skiied before said she was looking forward to saying she had enjoyed her first few lessons in Dubai.

Fraser and Bennett play a father daughter team in Inkheart.
