After 50 Years on Ice, Torvill and Dean Reveal Their Final Skating Performance!

Shocking Announcement: Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean to Retire from Iconic Performances on 'Dancing on Ice' In a surprising revelation, renowned ice dancing legends Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean have announced that they will retire from performing on live television after the upcoming series of Dancing on Ice. The pair, who have been mainstays on the show since its debut in 2006, made it clear that their decision comes as a result of feeling "too old" to continue their on-ice performances. Torvill and Dean, who have collectively secured an impressive 16 gold medals across World, European, and British Figure Skating Championships, retired from competitive skating in 1998. However, their most significant achievement remains their captivating gold medal performance to Maurice Ravel's Bolero at the 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympics, a moment that still stands as a high point in British sporting history. The duo's decision to retire from live performances marks the end of an era. Speaking about the impending final performances, Christopher Dean, 66, commented, "This will be our last live skate – here on Dancing on Ice. We’re doing our final tour this year as well, and once we finish that, we won't be performing again. There are lots of endings." At 67, Jayne Torvill echoed similar sentiments, expressing that the time had come to step away from the ice. “We’ve been doing it a long time, and people our age shouldn’t be doing it now,” Christopher added, reflecting on the duo’s remarkable journey together, which has spanned over five decades. Despite their retirement from performing, Torvill and Dean will continue to serve as judges on Dancing on Ice, working alongside Ashley Banjo and Oti Mabuse. Their departure from the ice rink will be a bittersweet moment for fans who have followed their careers since the inception of the show. Looking back on their involvement with Dancing on Ice, Torvill shared fond memories of the show’s early days, remarking, "It feels like our baby. We were approached by ITV in the early stages and helped develop the format together. We didn’t know much about TV, and they didn’t know how skating worked, so we built it together." As they prepare to retire from performing, Christopher is embracing a new hobby, following in the footsteps of other celebrities. "I’ve taken up beekeeping. It sounds like a good thing to do," he explained, citing the peacefulness of the activity. The ongoing series of Dancing on Ice, hosted by Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern, continues to feature celebrity contestants, including EastEnders’ Charlie Brooks, ex-footballer Anton Ferdinand, and Olympic champion Steve Redgrave. Among the competitors, Coronation Street's Sam Aston has drawn praise for his natural skating ability, with Christopher Dean commenting, "Sam has taken to it quite naturally." As the curtain falls on the performance careers of two of the most iconic figures in British ice dancing history, their legacy will undoubtedly continue to influence the world of figure skating for years to come.
