1.0 out of 5 stars Poor production values, not enough of Jane & Christopher, October 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Torvill & Dean - With the Russian All-Stars [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video appears to be a slapdash capture of a tour performance given by Torvil and Dean in the company of a group of Russian professional skaters. The video and sound quality are poor and there is far too much "filler" skating by the Russians while Jane and Chris are changing costumes, relaxing, whatever.

This review is from: Torvill & Dean - With the Russian All-Stars [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video is a wonderful spectacle of skating, no doubt. Jayne and Chris along with the Russian All stars is just a perfect combination! Yeah, we ALWAYS want to see more of T&D,but the Russians were brilliant too. The tape has a great variety, including drama (Polovotsian dances), comedy, and just some great skating. T&D are wonderfulll as always!
If you are looking for high quality skating entertainment, with some superstars, this is your tape!

This review is from: Torvill & Dean - With the Russian All-Stars [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Granted that there is not enough of Jane and Chris on this video, the quality of the skating and the imagination (looks like Christopher's style of coreography) behind the routines is first rate, as is the Russian skating and music. It is such a relief to find a video without any adds or peppy, innane commentary by intrusive announcers. If you find a better all-round skating tape, let me know! Why oh why do the British seemingly refuse to let us have a full collection of Torvill and Dean's competitive performances starting back in 1984? Only Babalonia and Gardner (are you listening, ABC?) in pairs matched them in their last world-championship performance (inexplicably submerged by an olympic disaster a month later).
