I watched their video and it seems that some judges gave them 5.9, not 6.0. --Heida Maria 22:37, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Those are the technical skating marks. They received 9 perfect 6.0's for artistic impression. --Martin 1600 17:53, 3rd Feburary 2007

Split

This article has a suggested split tag, but it doesn't give any rationale for this, I don't think that splitting the article is a good idea in the same way that we don't integrate the relevant details into John Lennon, George Harrison, Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney and then delete The Beatles. If we were to spilt then the information in this article would most likely be the same in both of the individual articles.

Unless there is a counter argument to this then I will remove the tag in a few days. [[User:King Strato |King Strato] (User talk:King Strato talk) 19:06, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, the tag should be removed. BTW, this article could use considerable cleanup. What's that mess of a list at the bottom? Robert K S (talk) 10:25, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Teg removed. King Strato (talk) 18:01, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

what, not a single picture? --anon —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.114.177.32 (talk) 22:52, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sussex or Surrey

This page states Torvill now lives in Surrey. Yet her page states she lives in Sussex! 79.65.29.151 (talk) 14:28, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Of all time" silliness

How can the claim "became the highest scoring figure skaters of all time" be justified? Since time has not yet ended, the best that can be said is "became the highest scoring figure skaters to date". Oh my, how that "of all time" idiom, that one hears so often, annoys me. 86.132.222.129 (talk) 23:12, 18 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
