For some reason this performance isn't as well publicised as their Copenhagen one but it's brilliant and so are the marks! Still, after all these years, Mack & Mabel is my favourite T&D FD.

I never tire of watching this. It is one of my favourite Torville and Dean routines. Love it, the music the Choreography, costumes the whole thing. They are IMO the most brilliantand best ice dancers of all time. Robbed of a second gold medal due to a illegal lift that really wasn't.💕

Before I had a VCR so this is a real gem for me to watch. At St Ivel Alan Weeks called it "a mini operetta", this, along with their Blues OSP which John Curry (also at St Ivel) described as "the most beautiful thing I've ever seen", what a glorious season that was! 👏 And for many of us, our fave FD. 💕💟

I was KRAZY about them for 35 years and watched them all the time. I had a mega crush on Chris.. and then I met them. They were really haughty and Chris thinks he grew up in NottingHAM . He also feels American audiences are more sophisticated . I was heartbroken. I cannot deny they will never be bettered as ice dancers when they were at their peak but I don't watch them purposefully now . I hadn't looked for years when this came up on my feed . I have them in my soul but my heart is jaded about them now.😢
