Who is saying What, Why, When and Where

Headline:

Torvill and Dean were so steamy on the rink, they had to be lovers, right?

Synopsis:

Jayne Torvill asks: 'I suppose you want to know whether we did?' The Olympic gold medal-winning skater turned presenter of Dancing On Ice is sitting in a London hotel room with her co-host and professional partner Christopher Dean.

Ever since their Bolero routine at the Sarajevo Olympics in 1984, Torvill and Dean have been Britain's most popular artistic couple; a sort of sanitised version of Nureyev and Fonteyn.

And, as Jayne puts it, everyone wants to know if their off-rink relationship was sexual, or whether any tendresse was, as it were, put on ice.
