Torvill and Dean [text(large print)] : our life on ice : the autobiography
Torvill, Jayne, 1957-2015
Large Print
When Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean collapsed to the ice at the climax of their routine to Bolero in the 1984 Winter Olympics, the judges could find no fault, awarding them 12 maximum scores of 6.0, while 24 million viewers watching at home in Britain simply looked on in amazement. They turned professional and would eventually spend eight years working on ITV's 'Dancing on Ice', but still much of their story remained unknown. Now, Torvill & Dean finally open up about the challenges they have faced and the pressures of life in the public eye: Jayne speaks candidly about her struggle with husband Phil to start a family, while Chris reveals the heartache in his family story.
