Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean have announced they will be going on one last tour before they retire from skating together in 2025.
The British ice skaters from Nottingham went down in British sporting history at the 1984 Winter Games following their routine to Ravel’s Bolero at the Zetra Olympic Hall in Sarajevo.

On announcing their retirement, Dean said: “I think there comes a time when you know.
“We’re not spring chickens any more but we’re still able to do it to a certain degree that we feel good about it but that will go.
“So I think this is the right time for us to be able to do that and go and skate and do some of the old routines, be very nostalgic, but then do some new fun, upbeat (dances) with friends of ours from the skating world and from Dancing On Ice.
“We’re looking at it as a celebration.”
