Ever the professional, Jayne quickly dusted herself off with the help of Chris as they continued their routine. Following the accident, Christopher reassured the crowd and told them it was all okay.

He said: “Thank you so much. As you can see, sometimes it gets scary out here. Scary, scary – for Jayne anyway.” He went on to thank fans for attending their final tour.

Christopher said: “It has been a terrific show and thank you to my wonderful skaters here and to Jayne. We are really honoured that you spend your time to come out and see us on a Sunday afternoon and share some of our 50-year career highlights.

“It’s been so memorable and we will always remember today. Thank you for your memories everyone.” The talented duo, who rose to fame with their performance at the 1984 Winter Olympics, kicked off their final tour this month.

Christopher and Jayne first came together in 1975 before stunning at the Olympics. Their farewell tour, titled Torvill and Dean: Our Last Dance, is set to run until May 11.

The dates will see the duo perform in London, Belfast, Newcastle, and Glasgow. Speaking ahead of their finale, Chris explained they both felt it was the “right time” to stop skating.

He said: “We’re not spring chickens anymore,” before saying the pair want to retire while they’re still able to perform “to a certain degree”. Meanwhile, the legendary duo have been followed by cameras as they travelled across the country for one last tour.

They previously discussed their tour with the Mirror about their tour, telling us: “We’re delighted that our farewell tour will be the subject of an ITV documentary.

“The programme will be filled with poignant and joyful moments as we plan, rehearse and perform our final skating journey together – all caught on camera by a film crew following us over many months as we bid farewell to our 50 year ice skating partnership.

“It’s fitting that this documentary will be broadcast on ITV, our TV home for the last two decades. We hope fans will enjoy this final opportunity to see us skate together.”
