Thank you, I'd never seen this performance before and it is absolutely fabulous. Thank you so much for posting it.

[@margittkennedy1311]

No one before or since have skated with such wonderful edges and their feet so close together!

[@vickimarlene4905]

They’ve always been the best. Always will be

[@carolynellis387]

That's a massive ask skating with that length of material to open the sequence, fabulous and creative as someone said

[@sharonhyde7735]

A top score there will never be an ice skating couple like them! Never there a natural

[@junewhite6376]

Just stunning. Every little movement perfectly in sync. Loved it. Champions never surpassed. X

[@virginiamei9120]

I loved the Venus routine, it has not been seen that much, so glad I caught it. They never disappoint. That was gorgeous!

[@daisymay9203]

Who even has this creativity anymore ? These 2 brought a real sense of uniqueness to the ice and made people want to watch

[@scook5599]

Chris was lifting Jayne with just one arm. So strong.

[@theinvisiblegirlmh]

FYI, the woman jumps to help facilitate a lift. It’s rare that the man is expected to list the woman on pure brute strength. Having said that, it reminds me very much of the now-required assisted jump sequence in international ice dance competition.

[@tracypriest4386]

They make me proud to be British. There will never be any one that comes close to them

[@orlaithchops]

Saw this in Nottingham with my Mum and older sister in 1985 I was 6 years old I’ve never forgotten it ❤️

[@gretabrun3069]

[@rivkastock2684]

Xris is so so creative. He is lucky to have such a gifted selfless partner in Jayne

[@Curiousever]

It’s so very hard to respect him after the documentary.

[@rivkastock2684]

@@Curiousever indeed

[@dawnturner5597]

@@Curiousever which documentary?

[@ilovegoodsax]

@@dawnturner5597 There was a documentary about the two right before their second Olympics in 1994. Chris yelled and berated Jayne during a practice. I didn't see the big deal but apparently a lot of people were appalled.

[@colleencupido5125]

With a last name of Cupido, I am in an authorized position to say this poetic interpretation of Holst's "Venus" is a perfect portrayal of Love and Beauty on Ice

[@szqsk8]

Fabulous routine! I saw their ice show when they toured Los Angeles after they went pro and it was amazing.

[@marykeaveney5081]

They are simply the best You actually forget how brilliant they really were

He was so STRONG. Surprising for someone who appears to be so slender.

Gustav Holst, one of The Planets

[@michaelsquires7074]

The greatest ever ! No knighthood and damehood ? When we consider compare their achievements to some recipients the mind boggles…

[@kamwrites]

And now skaters go out in booty shorts and call it art. SMH.

[@valkyriesardo278]

I can admire the moves of course, but I just cannot relate to the theme. Love them, but have no idea what they were trying to convey here.

[@junewhite6376]

I think it was an ethereal idea of the planets. I loved it. X

[@mariawojcik5081]

No

[@edwardarckless3112]

Venus and the plombier it just stinks.
