Torvill and Dean were a couple I was captivated by as young teenager. The 1984 Olympics, which I remember was one of the most revolutionary moments in figure skating. Torvill and Dean changed the entire nature of the sport of ice dancing through this daring performance. Prior to this, it had been formal ballroom dance transferred to ice; they transformed it into ballet on ice. Pure genius. A great article about this performance by the BBC.
