Before Strictly star James Jordan was crowned the winner of the 2019 series, viewers were left amazed by the beautiful performance from the top judges.

Fans flocked to Twitter to share their reaction and one said: “Nobody will ever top the partnership of Torvil and Dean . Just the cutest”

One more wrote: “It doesn’t matter how many amazing skaters out there but when torvil and dean skate something truly magical happens”

 

The skating legends performed Ravel’s Bolero at the Sarajevo Winter Olympics on Valentines Day in 1984 and Chris, 60, admitted they are grateful every time they perform together nowadays.

Speaking about performing together now, Chris recently said: “Do we feel those 35 years in our bodies? Yes! You reach a certain age and that downward slope. Nowadays every time we perform we feel like we don’t know if that’s our last performance.

“So each time we skate it feels like a little added bonus. It’s quite sentimental. We like performing together, but there is an emotion each time we skate now.”

The remarkable duo recently performed together for the first time in four years on the ITV show, but Chris stopped short of gliding across the ice with Jayne above his head.

He added to the Mirror: “I could still do it. But there are age appropriate things and I don’t think I should be throwing a 60-year-old lady around the ice.

“We still feel in our 20s. In our mind we can do everything but our body doesn’t allow it. We’re the best we can be at the moment.

“I hope we’ll realise when it’s time to stop skating before other people realise it.”

Jayne was a reserved youngster, determined to explore her passionate nature through the ice.

Their early years and the creative impetus drove them to become ice dancing royalty.
