A triumphant return to figure skating glory, if only in my head.

Torvill & Dean: Our Life on Ice
T&D are coming out with a tell-all memoir that reveals some pretty shocking stuff about their career. The Daily Mail has been publishing excerpts that I must say are fascinating: how Dean almost killed them in a car crash on their way to training for the 1984 Olympics, how his marriage to Jill Trenary dissolved, and Torvill's heartbreaking struggle with infertility.
I'm not typically a fan of tabloids and tell-alls, but T&D are icons in the figure skating world, and they seem like true class-acts, so I can't help but be curious about their new book, and the revelations that have come out of it.
And just for fun (because really who cannot watch this over and over) is their 1984 Olympic gold-winning free dance to Bolero.
