Breathtaking and technically brillant - I wish they would have won but I believe the judges found any excuse to deny them the dream ending to their comeback story. I am so glad they are back on our screens in 'dancing on ice' - I love watching them skate - perfection in unison!
WHAT were the judges thinking in this particular Olympics not to have awarded Torvill & Dean the gold? As a matter of fact, I think this was the worst judged Olympics in all 4 disciplines that I've ever seen in my life.
they are just breathtaking amazingly great skaters!! I have honestly never seen better ice skaters than them. They share such an unbelievable chemistry on and of the ice. Just look at Chris gazing at Jayne before they go onto the ice. That is such a symbol of their amazing connection and bond and the trust they have in each other. They are just incredible. 100% in sync with each other.
@sleeplessinsale Thanks for reminding me--I felt SICK about that terrible injustice, the whole British nation did too. A clear piece of Olympic political skulduggery, and corruption. Still with us today, along with the World football association's disgraceful behaviour. As usual, when large amounts of money are involved --corruption is close at hand.
@MeganXXnageM I remember watching a documentary on them years ago...Chris used to line up their skate guards with absolute precision before each routine, symbolizing their connection when on the ice. You can see that same intensity in his gaze.
Bolero was so sensual and elegant! But, the Rhumba was so erotic! Absolutely divine! Jayne and Chris, thank you for the beauty you create, project, and live by!
@MrDDurst They are the greatest and most famous in the WORLD at what they do. It takes dedication, passion and serious talent to do what they've done. What are YOU the best in the world at? You clearly don't like skating, so, why are you even watching this? Do us all a favour and save us the trouble of having to notice your pathetic trolling. Heh, I'm tempted to ask people to thumbs up this comment but I don't think I need to.
Still after 27 years, I haven't seen a better OD in my life. Breathtakingly perfect, sexy and unforgettable ( the 2 can come a bit closer to this is Anissina-Peizerat and Virtrue-Moir Flamencos in the Olympic 2002 and 2010, but those are only "closed to", not "up to" this miracle.)
@BigdealXXIII TOTALLY agree with you - the finest OD of all time, along with their OSP Paso Doble. Also totally agree about Virtue and Moir and Anissina and Peizerat's ODs too... despite the new rules Virtue and Moir have brought "dance" back to ice dance.... but Torvill and Dean... just WOW!!
I remember seeing this back in 1994 when I was a teenager and being absolutely open-mouthed in front of such a perfect display of awesomeness and emotion ...
16 years later I'm happy to see that it's the same feeling , to use the commentator's words , a masterpiece ...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Oksana Grishuk and Evgeny Platov in the BEST ice dancing team in the history of ice dancing! Unbeatable team FOREVER!!! Oksana and Evgeny true gold medal winners. This guys robbed them at the 1994 European championship. They must retun the gold medal to their true champions Oksana Grishuk and Evgeny Platov asap.
@2010watchmenow are you being serious?????? Maybe you should go and look up who is ACTUALLY the greatest ice dance team in history.....oh wait, you must have already done that to get to this vid!!
@2010watchmenow oksana grshuk evgeny platov LMAO you made those stupid names up.. Yea Yea Yea Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are unbeatable thats why they have the gold medals duhhhh BRITISH CHAMPIONS............. GB
They show what dancing is all about; she surrenders to her partner and he looks at her like he can't believe this beautiful creature is really in his arms.
@emmjo720 I love that look, the eye contact, the connection, the wry smile, and then the most electrifying rhumba.
@pobgill I have to disagree. The rules were changed v suddenly when it was known T&D were coming back so they COULDN'T do anything "pioneering". That's why when you look at all 1994 FDs they're all v traditional. Much as I admire Grichuk & Platov 1994 results were a BIG stich up. They were warned they'd only come 4th, but they were SO good there was no way they could be ignored
i came here to remember and be heartbroken all over again. No one dances from inside the music the way they do, as if their line is supported by a single shared beating heart. My younger friends mock ice dancing & i think you just dont understand...
They only won the bronze because there was a reaction against their innovation, and the judges wanted a return to the traditional. They were penalized for a supposedly "illegal" lift.
So right! And good for you for saying! The "illegal" lift was at the end...over his shoulder! They are MASTERS !! Their footwork is beyond belief!!!! Legends and good for them!!! forever a fan of theirs!!!
That "illegal" lift still pisses me off. The judges in 94 knew who they wanted to win. The gold medal winners that year spent almost a minute apart in the FD and recieved no penalty for it.
The judges always know who the winners are every Olympics, if you ask me. I am SICK to death of the judges, and I don't believe this 'new' judging system had mad any difference at all.
Historia de un amor - The story of a love (I had) It is commonly translated from Spanish as: A love story, and it was written by Carlos Eleta Almaran.
They say speed kills. In figure skating a lack of speed is what (according to the judges) kills. Total bullcrap as far as I'm concerned this was the best OD by far.
I would think that doing intricate skills side by side at a slower speed would be more challenging because there is no room for error. The judges could see every wobble.
They were so beautiful together, unsurpassed! I've been watching the Vancouver Olympics, and just had to find T&D to watch on youtube. And I can't believe they did not win in this competition. Age discrimination?
As others have stated, they don't get any better than Torvill and Dean. Absolute perfection. There is no comparison between what they did and ice dancers today. You can tell the endless practice and perfecting technique in every step.
@realmissyblues yea i totally agree they could show these young skaters a thing or two if they came back they would still win hands down because there is no one in the world better than torvill and dea n and there never will be i love u jayne and chris xxx
Perfection! If today's skaters could come anywhere near as close as these two, I wouldn't have been falling asleep last night while watching the ice-dancing!
It is a compulsory dance, in the US it is at the international level, it just looks nothing like this rhumba. It is a quick sequence of steps with one large choctaw.
The best ever. They should have two gold medals instead of one. They were straight robbed, but they weren't the only ones at that Olympics-Elvis Stojko should have won too.
The 1 thing that gets me hotter than hot is seeing a tall good looking man who really knows how to dance. & Christopher Dean fits the bill. T&D 4EVER!!!!!!!
They did not 'retire' after the 1994 Olympics, they went back to professional touring, performing and competition. They retired in 1998. (And they weren't 'beaten', they were robbed.)
Totally agree, they were robbed plain and simple. Then we had to endure Pasha Grishuk showing her you know what to the judges and sleeping with all the married men for years, LMAO!
Thanks You-Tube, I'd been wanting to see the video of this English pair dancers for a longtime and finally, I did, and in the comfort of my own home too.
You may not know this but they today work on Dancing On Ice. This wasn't their gold performance check out thier 1984 performance which they won gold for. This is torville and dean skating around Leona Lewis (1:00 on)
For emotional/passionate/sensual and even comedy try:
Torvill and Dean:
Song Of India
Oscar Tango
Stormy Weather
Encounter
Revolution/Imagine
Diablo Tango - Comedy
You will not be disappointed. Alot of these were performed in their professional championship days. Alot of people think they disappeared after the '84 Olympics, and forget that they went professional and performed all over the world especially in the US.
@OPL73 yes i have most of their dvds and books and i have watched all of them and several more true genious the dances are devine diablo tango is hillariuos
Yo know, if she didn't look so much like a post-menopausal woman old enough to be his mother, than this could have been really HOT, but she skates like an englishwoman. Very sanitary.
@frecklesislegend they are both english they were both born and raised in nottingham chris was raised just outside in a mining town called calverton they met at the ice rink
@ritzygal how dare u jayne and chris are the best ice dancers ever and yes she does skate like she is english BECAUSE SHE IS and so is he dont bad mouth jayne and chris ever!!!!!!! its disrespectful and there are millions more TnD fans who will agree with me
This has everything that a Rhumba should have. It has passion, it has fluidity, it hastechnical brilliance, it has it all. Dancers from the skating world now could learn lessons from this.
Historia de un Amor is a song written by Panamanian songwriter Carlos Eleta Almaran. It was written after the death of his brother's wife. It is also in the soundtrack of a 1956 Mexican movie of the same name. . It may be interpreted that love is a story for a woman but it's just an episode for a man. It was sung or played by many artists like Julio Iglesias, Nana Mouskouri, Perez Prado, Laura Fygi, Iva Zanicchi, Eydie Gormé & Trio Los Panchos, Pedro Infante, Dalida, Ana Gabriel, Luis Miguel
Hi the name of the song is historia de un amor and there is quite a few latin american singers with the version of the song but i think one of the bests is from the mexican singer Luis Miguel is a lovely and soft bolero :)
T&D certainly set the ice sizzling here. Viewers might like to compare this version to the exhibition piece they did to the same music in 1982 - see my channel.
All i can say is, at least this part of the competition was not marked down. But to be honnest, this OD is miles above the two Russian couples FD, let alone their actual OD.
I usually watch the woman in ice dance -- partly because of the more flamboyant costume, but mainly because the woman is usually the better skarer. With no disrespect to Jayne, I always watch Christopher in this pairing. He is beautiful and graceful.
Awsome, quite literally. Surely the best OD ever, although the blues of Usova&Zhulin (Summertime) and Libertango of Grischuk&Platov runs it very close. But nobody marked it down, they were justly first on the OD. With all my love to T&D, don't think I'd have them 1st on the FD. U&Z should've been 1st overall, and at least 4 judges had'em there.
In reply to selesqueen, if T&D had been 3rd in the CDs, but 1st in the OD and the FD, they would've been 1st overall. (like they should've been).
I'm not sure I agree that T&D should've been 3rd in both the CDs. The Russians were strong, but T&D were better, IMO, on both dances, especially the Blues.
No they didn't win the 1994 Olympics. They won the OD part of the competition, but only won a bronze medal overall. They were robbed of the gold medal by those stupid judges. Everyone would could see that they were technically and artisticaly the best except those idiotic judges!! Argh...makes me mad it does!
They deserved only 3rd in the CDs. The two Russian teams had the best CDs. However they deserved to win the OD and FD I think. If they had won the OD and FD but still been 3rd in the CDs what would the overall result have been.
Just a magical,sensual performance was like they were in a separate(much higher level) competition of their own compared 2 their opponents.Pity political judging refused 2 acknowledge what we all saw & knew or reflect it in their 'marking'.Still baffles & riles me when I think about how they were robbed, when their superiority over their 'competition' was glaringly obvious 2 all with eyes n hearts except the people trusted 2 mark/judge them fairly apparently.Just so GD injust!End of rant,lol!xxx
Absolutely this is the sexiest piece of correography I've seen. I wish they had won... this was just magic!!
You gotta love youtube.. anything thing you can think of it's here on youtube. Thanks for posting that. I've been dying to see T&D perform this again since those Olympics.
How this flawless dance was beaten by the very fake-looking entry by the event winners (one of the two Russian pairs that took silver and gold) is completely beyond me. It has variety, originality and class throughout, and never once looks tacky.
This is one of my favorite piece of music...and they just realized it on the ice in this marvelous dance. They are telling the history of love, so sensually...
I rememeber seeing this live on TV, when I was 14 and being literally mesmerized by this wonderful performance...
They obviously won the gold in everyone's heart but the judges...

This has everything that a Rhumba should have. It has passion, it has fluidity, it hastechnical brilliance, it has it all. Dancers from the skating world now could learn lessons from this.

histoire l'histoire de l'amour.....
arakhachatran 3 years ago
Historia de un Amor is a song written by Panamanian songwriter Carlos Eleta Almaran. It was written after the death of his brother's wife. It is also in the soundtrack of a 1956 Mexican movie of the same name. . It may be interpreted that love is a story for a woman but it's just an episode for a man. It was sung or played by many artists like Julio Iglesias, Nana Mouskouri, Perez Prado, Laura Fygi, Iva Zanicchi, Eydie Gormé & Trio Los Panchos, Pedro Infante, Dalida, Ana Gabriel, Luis Miguel

Hi the name of the song is historia de un amor and there is quite a few latin american singers with the version of the song but i think one of the bests is from the mexican singer Luis Miguel is a lovely and soft bolero :)

No one will remember all the other couples they competed against, but Torvill & Dean will always be known for perfection on ice. Mesmerizing!!!

T&D certainly set the ice sizzling here. Viewers might like to compare this version to the exhibition piece they did to the same music in 1982 - see my channel.

perhaps at the skating with the stars show?
jonasbrothers1fan587 3 years ago
All i can say is, at least this part of the competition was not marked down. But to be honnest, this OD is miles above the two Russian couples FD, let alone their actual OD.

this dance is just gorgeous......its so sesual! they are without a doubt the best ice dancers ever and the deserved to ein gold in 94!

I usually watch the woman in ice dance -- partly because of the more flamboyant costume, but mainly because the woman is usually the better skarer. With no disrespect to Jayne, I always watch Christopher in this pairing. He is beautiful and graceful.
ilexxian 3 years ago 11
Awsome, quite literally. Surely the best OD ever, although the blues of Usova&Zhulin (Summertime) and Libertango of Grischuk&Platov runs it very close. But nobody marked it down, they were justly first on the OD. With all my love to T&D, don't think I'd have them 1st on the FD. U&Z should've been 1st overall, and at least 4 judges had'em there.

I don't know how any judge with good conscience can mark down Torvill and Dean.

In reply to selesqueen, if T&D had been 3rd in the CDs, but 1st in the OD and the FD, they would've been 1st overall. (like they should've been).
I'm not sure I agree that T&D should've been 3rd in both the CDs. The Russians were strong, but T&D were better, IMO, on both dances, especially the Blues.

No they didn't win the 1994 Olympics. They won the OD part of the competition, but only won a bronze medal overall. They were robbed of the gold medal by those stupid judges. Everyone would could see that they were technically and artisticaly the best except those idiotic judges!! Argh...makes me mad it does!
badbeer13 3 years ago 2
They deserved only 3rd in the CDs. The two Russian teams had the best CDs. However they deserved to win the OD and FD I think. If they had won the OD and FD but still been 3rd in the CDs what would the overall result have been.

Just a magical,sensual performance was like they were in a separate(much higher level) competition of their own compared 2 their opponents.Pity political judging refused 2 acknowledge what we all saw & knew or reflect it in their 'marking'.Still baffles & riles me when I think about how they were robbed, when their superiority over their 'competition' was glaringly obvious 2 all with eyes n hearts except the people trusted 2 mark/judge them fairly apparently.Just so GD injust!End of rant,lol!xxx

it wasn't about who was the best skaters it was about the fact that 3 of the judges all came from countries which used to be in the USSR

How this flawless dance was beaten by the very fake-looking entry by the event winners (one of the two Russian pairs that took silver and gold) is completely beyond me. It has variety, originality and class throughout, and never once looks tacky.
