Figure skaters Torvill and Dean have announced on the 40th anniversary of their gold medal-winning performance that next year will be the last time they dance together.
The duo have returned to Sarajevo in Bosnia-Herzegovina, where they danced the Bolero in the 1984 Winter Olympics.
Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean will skate together for the final time as part of a UK tour in 2025.
Torvill told the BBC: "The tour is the celebration of our careers."
Dean, 65, said: "We felt it's right because 2025 is our 50th year of skating together.
Well, I guess all good things must come to an end . But 50 years is one heck of a partnership... the glory days of the 1980s may be a distant memory now, but they remain much-loved among the public even today!
Hopefully, they'll put on a spectacular performance that gives their partnership a worthy send-off .
