Why should they retire so young. It's a nice little earner for them.

I think they'll carry on for as long as ITV want them. While they're are both still amazing skaters, there's no need for them to retire.

They could carry on doing what they do now but cut out the skating if it gets too much for them.

It's their names more than anything that carry the kudos.

I don't think they'll retire, they're both still very fit and can skate as well as ever. Why would they give it up?

Their age has nothing to do with it. I know skaters up here in Scotland that are in their 60's and 70's. One little lady is 82 and still turns up once a week to practise her edges!

Why on earth should they retire?

Should everyone over the age of thirty suddenly become invisible?

I think they are superb and define the whole concept of Dancing on Ice.

oh, I am so glad I am not the only one who thinks this!!!

I really, really, really wish that the pro skaters were able to give more input into the choreography rather than being told what to skate by T&D (please correct me if I am wrong on this)

As far as I understand it, some of the pros will never have choreograped their own routines. It's a shame, as some of the best arguments in the Strictly forum are about the pro's choreography!

If I see one more naff, cowboy-themed routine on DOI I will scream!
