Ice Dancing. I truly don’t understand why this is a sport when ballroom dancing, which is essentially dressage for bipeds, isn’t. Besides, Torville and Dean’s routine at the Sarajevo Olympics in 1984 is the reason why I still can’t listen to Ravel’s Bolero any more.
I was just looking at the potted biographies at the side of the page – surely Smith and Jones are Himalayans, not Siamese? They have longish fur and fairly short noses.
They certainly started off as Siamese but they’ve got furrier and more stylised over the years.
