- 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.

Who is still watching this 40 years later and wishing they could go back to more innocent times?> - this dance is timeless and still the best of Torvill and Dean.
Omg yes
Yes I am, what a floorless performance.. best times ever
Definitely my favorite T&D piece
Not sure about going back but this is special 😊
Me
Watching in 2022 and still in awe
1982 all those years ago today 2023 and I still smile whenever I watch this xxx
Wiping tears away watching this due to the pure art of it. How did they get that good? The skill and chemistry is such a one off in the history of any sport
This is quite simply the greatest isn’t it , choreography is breathtaking, Mack and Mabel soundtrack is superb, i watched this when they first performed it and it remains a pivotal moment in ice dance , everything they do is magical and their contribution to sport is second to none 🥰❤️🥰
Elegant, witty and flawless. They are still the best there has been.
Still gives me goose bumps watching it nearly 40 years later. Just brilliant!
Sheer class. They're still unbeatable.
You will never see better than these two.
This program never gets old...brilliant in '82-brilliant in 2020
And in 2022.....
Loved the theme and storyline of this FD. The costuming was brilliant. The technical skill was amazing, I get dizzy watching the number of hand/dance holds. And, the execution was most definitely 6.0. Nothing to say but "simply the best."
Thank you for posting this.
This is still my favourite routine of theirs. I just love Mac 'n Mabel. They captured the era of silent movies perfectly. All 6's should've been given. It was perfect.
Me too. I preferred this over Bolero, dare I say!
I agree the Mack and Mabel routine was the game changer for Ice Dancing
@@Person-mh6xq Definitely! Bolero was quite laboured. Mack and Mabel, and the Barnum routines are my favourites.
wonderful ice dancers still today but these two broke the mould and no one will ever touch them , they changed their sport,
There is not a leg line out of place, everything is perfect, so innovative and the wonderful Alan Weeks commenting. 38 years later this is fresh and original. "Oh my goodness"! as Mr Weeks says!
Even if you break it down to the movement of individual muscles it's difficult to find a flaw.
@@peterd788 Totally agree. And now this performance is coming up to 41 years old!
Superb skating, musicality, choreography
Absolutely amazing, no one can ever touch them even today. They're unique in every way. Just so magnificent , I can watch them all day.
What a surprise the USSR judge didn’t give a 6.0 ! They were fantastic,. Best ice dance pair ever in my opinion
Everything flows so perfectly, so seamlessly, they were in a class of their own.
Two words describe it - pure genius.
Pure geniuses they are amazing today as they were then, beautiful xx
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.💕
Other worldly....why isn't ice dance like this anymore? So lucky to be alive to have seen all these performances xx
So right. recent olympics pale by comparison
Have you not seen Gemma Collins ice dance? 😂
As always, great program........Jane forever classy in her costume choices.
I watch Chris and Jayne dancing every day ~ even multiple times. They are the absolute best ever, and I’ll never tire of seeing their amazing artistry and beautiful relationship.
I've been watching them on You Tube for an hour or two almost every day. Love them.
It never gets old ...does it.
@@Curiousever Definitely not.
Me too! It will never get old. 🤩
Me too , Everything They did was Memorable:)
I watch them every single day, you would wonder I don’t tire of them, but I never do, their artistry is above and beyond anyone else and they just make me happy. I wish I could meet them if only to see them once in my life. Going through Covid and staying indoors for this year has been hard on us all but I thank God I can immerse myself in the beauty T and D create.
Как замечательно,что Торвилл и Дин помогли вам перенести Covid,я думаю ,что не надо ограничиваться этим дуэтом. Посмотрите Грищук и Платова,там все гораздо гениальнее!!! Просто для начала посмотрите,а потом сами сделаете вывод.
I loved seeing their happiness with their 6’s. They deserve it, how hard they worked .
I never stop watching them, they just cheer me up....oh the good times...
Best ice dancers ever-love this and Barnum
I forgot how closely they skated together in this routine. A breakthrough masterpiece!
Sharing on our Facebook page.
Замечательный танец. Высокая скорость. Очень интересные шаги. Настоящие мастера.
Всё в них идеально, - и техника, и артистизм, скольжение...Пара лучшая из лучших...Блистательные и непревзойдённые.Талант, помноженный на огромный труд...Замечательная и прекрасная Бети Калоуэй...Браво !!!
I've had the pleasure of watching them live many times. They're so smooth over the ice, you barely hear their blades.Я имел удовольствие наблюдать за ними вживую много раз. Они так гладко скользят по льду, что их лезвия почти не слышно Greetings from the UK
@@meansy7753 Вы счастливый человек...
Great !!! Difficult and fun, so perfect so torvill and Dean !!!
Absolutely breathtaking ❤❤❤
Великолепная пара, на все времена! Чудесное владение коньком!
❤ The first time I watched this and boy brought a tear to my eye 😢 they are more than brilliant best ever and now in there,60's still perform brilliantly ❤
Thank you for posting such a nice copy of this routine, including the scores.
I love everything about this performance!
Величайшие навсегда!
CONGRATULATIONS!!
You deserved it. You earned it.
Captivating every time you watch it. And I can't stop watching it.
They really were perfection.
And this is when they changed ice dancing programmes forever. Instead of excerpts from different pieces of music of varying tempo, with no underlying theme or story, T&D used one piece of music and dramatic storytelling. Such wonderful innovators.
But it did have change of tempo and style. Bolero did not.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx fell in love with these two
Уникальная пара! Смотрится великолепно ДО СИХ ПОР!!! Полный восторг!
Чудесно и кинематографично. Каждый жест точен!!!!!! Это сплошной восторг!
am still watching
Couple admirable! C' est merveileux! Quelle harmony!
Beautifully skated & marvellous set of marks!
Thank you so much for this!! My other channel (D D Jay) has the World's FD but, yes, I think this is even better than it was at World's. My goodness, the innovation, execution, flair and drama, even after all these years, is breathtaking. Thank you again.
Such a beautiful performance and their faces at the end are adorable. Thank you for posting this. Our toddler daughter wore out my tapes watching Torvill and Dean.
I've bought all the dvds fairly cheaply off ebay so you may be able to rediscover them again through that.
Brilliant a class act and still going strong.
Thanks for posting this! I could watch them all day!
Me too x
This is still INCREDIBLE! I was only 8 at the time and remember it so well. What is so extraordinary is their chemistry. Watching it now it’s hasn’t dated in terms of skill and artistry.
Take my advice and put it at 1.5x speed. The most breathtaking sight of your life.
As with all of Torvill and the Dean skates...show me anyone else who could do these dances...on ice skayes!...and so beautifully!!!
No one
They make it look so easy!
Великие и единственные.
Самые лучшие Джейн и Крис.
The applause is always high .
Absolutely fantabulous.
I saw Jayne and Chris perform live in the nineties. They were magnificent, and they came over to chat to the audience after. Lovely, down-to-earth couple. And Jayne is so petite and slim, and I thought she looked very like Leslie Caron.
Still enchanting. They were perfection. Brought back times of fun and pleasant times.
This remains my favorite Torvill & Dean - yes, even above Bolero - and a dance that pretty much resurrected a Broadway flop musical.
Браво. Браво. Браво. Очень приятно видеть Танцы Шедевр и как здорово Выглядит Эта Прекрасная Пара в Танцах на Льду из Англии Бриллиант и Шедевр Англии.. Желаю вам здоровья счастья любви Взаимной и Радости в жизни. Огромное спасибо Вам за прекрасное видео и Танцы Шедевр очень Красивое Исполнение Танца Великолепное и Изящное. Благодарю вас.
Flawless. Just stunning 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thank you so much Flo! ☺ This was the better performance, and Chris's jacket stayed buttoned up. Lovely camera angles and more intimately covered. 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 agree. LOVE them. They are AMAZING. xxx.
I really think this one is my favourite
Love them. Best ever.
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.😢
Stunning!
LOVE
Stylish and beautiful
Thank you
How delightful to see this. I'd heard about this FD but never seen it before due to an idiotic TV station in my city that didn't carry the CBS broadcasts of international figure skating events in the early 80's. Classic ice dancing and not mini-pairs as we have now.
Bravo!
Sweet and Lovely.
Огромное спасибо Вам за прекрасное видео и Танцы Шедевр очень Красивое Исполнение Танца Великолепное и Изящное в Этой прекрасной пары из Англии Бриллиант и Шедевр Англии. Талант Послан Богом Им. Благодарю вас за Видео Чудесное и Танец Шедевр Супер.

Showing what was possible & to come come....
So fast and so close - Wow!
The video disappeared for a bit. I'm glad it's back as it's my favourite version on here
Soviet judge....that still is the shocker....such beauty, so lucky to have been able to see this. xxx. thanks for posting.
Wciąż wracam do tych filmów 🙏😊. Najcudowniejsza para. Talent, gracja, choreografie.... Coś niebywałego. Pozdrawiam serdecznie 😊🤗🇵🇱🙌🙌🙌🙌
Unbeatable to this day
¡Genial! ¡Incomparables!

Brilliant!
wow magic x brilliant x x
Super bravo!
And remember Betty Callaway heirs coach too...but always to watch, never dates
Wow
This is the far better video, and thanks for sharing it. All the footage from Copenhagen is SO DARK! Did they not have lights in that arena? This is my second favorite T&D FD; my favorite is the following year, to Barnum.
It's just the quality of the footage I'm guessing.
I absolutely LOVE Barnum⛸♥️ 🤡
❤️❤️
It is way past time that Chris was knighted and Jayne made a Lady or Dame Im not sure what the appropriate accolade is? Lady Jayne Torvill and Sir Christopher Dean sounds much better!
If it was Sir for Christopher, the it would be Dame for Jane. Lord/Lady is a peerage rather than a recognition.
Still the best.
Fantastic-such a great skill just to avoid each others' skates.
Did they ever skate to St. ELMOS fire???
