He used to swing her about on the ice so does that count as a fling?

I remember that documentary - he really was vile and very verbally abusive towards her.

My best friend at the time and I had it taped off the telly. We were very young and tried to do the dance in the living room every day. No surprise that he eventually came out as gay

OMG

Are you my sons mate??? His initials aren't BW by any chance are they? Or perhaps there were lots of little lads (later coming out as gay) that did that. I took him to Sheffield to see their tour ........happy days

You're quite right he is an ex-copper

Loving the stick insects story, BB. Might try it with a couple of my guinea pigs, Buzz and Vyvyan.

Well, maybe not.

He was pushy and that was exactly why they got to the top.

So what if they had a fling. Sex is only the tick box in our perception of a relationship.

That image has had me roaring with laughter for about 10 minutes I think that image will be imprinted on my mind for ever - I don't think I will ever be able to hear Bolero again without thinking about stick insects! thank you for brightening up my day

I think she was , he came over as a real control freak , god only knows why she would have got with him . She must have had esteem issues .

[alanwarwic]

Funny that you would never even have heard of a T & D if they had been just your average "nice people".

[celtic star]

If this is true my guess would be it was very recently .

Whilst watching DOI only last Sunday , my daughter picked up on thier body language and faces they were pulling , it was like they were seething with each other . Moreso Jayne .
This was so obvious to my daughter she rewound and kept pausing it every time they were on camera , to prove it to me .

We just thought they must have had a major falling out before the show , because i knew of the documentary before , and also knew how they could rise above it and be proffessional .

their "dabble" was when they were teenagers

Jayne's married and twice divorced Chris is now in a relationship with Karen Barber

[Rob1985]

Thought they were married?

[turquoiseblue]

I passed Christopher Dean in the street. He was walking towards the ice stadium in Nottingham carrying a take away coffee.

[Scarlett O Hara]

Didn't everyone and their dog already know this?

Please don't tell me this is being reported as news anywhere!!!

Not good news for stick insects/other pets, but I quite like the concept IRO their human namesakes

[wilehelmas]

To me they were always one of those maybe couples who for some reason, I didn't WANT to know the inner intimacies/details of whatever/not potential relationship they might have.

I loved them as performers, they did the country proud and they were so wonderful and entertaining to watch when they were being professional, on ice, doing their thing.

But the rest, a bit like the Krankies, I could well do without knowing tbh. Not comparing them directly to them. Just imo that same weird vibe where it was either too intense or seemed control issues?
