1994 Lillehammer Olympics Ice Dance Medals Ceremony 

Oksana Grishuk & Evgeny Platov are legends and public sweethearts. They are still unbeatabale. There is no one couple who has won two olympic golds withot any lost.

The audience knew what was up.

Never underestimate audience, they know questionable judging when they see it.

Thanks for uploading!

Think the cheers and the standing ovations from the audience when Jayne and Chris come out prove who was the best!

Как отличается награждение от олимпиады в Нагано. Как трудно завоевать вторые олимпийские медали .Все видно по нашей лучшей паре- Грищук и Платов.

Still after 20 years is so painful to watch this! Poor Jayne and Chis. I feel rally sorry for them. Thank God the audience did justice!

That's true. They know honest judging and poor judging.

Wow and they actually did this before the world, remember that next time you feel cheated

Agreed. That was just painful to watch. A real shame.

You can see even more tension when Usova & Zhulin shake hands with Grishuk & Platov. Not exactly all that friendly!

well John-Paul, every one has own favorites. But Grishuk and Platov are judges and crowd favorites. They have the best technique and they have new directionin ice-dancing. Grishuk and Platov repair their titel the next four years, including the next Olympic games in 1998.

TORVILL & DEAN were named Skaters of the Century by Skating Magazine.

Thanks for posting this. After such a controversial decision, I'd always wondered how this medal ceremony went. Just as I expected: really awkward. Maya having to congratulate the woman who'd had an affair with her husband. Torvill and Dean having to congratulate two couples who shouldn't have beaten them, IMHO. And the least popular of the three couples winning the gold and getting the most lukewarm applause from the audience. Sheesh.

А я всегда была мнения что их не заслуженно превоносили. У Джейн Торчилл нет легкости в скольжении, этого не могут скрыть даже телекамеры. Техника прокатки-да, на высоте с этим не поспоришь. Но для золотых медалей этого мало. Для золота нужна скорость в катании, грация, пластика, легкость в скольжении, то чего нет у английской паре (никогда не было). Чтобы ни говорили, но наши танцоры на 2-е головы выше английских танцоров.

They may not know all the rules but they know who is the best.

Exactly.

У наших спортсменов невозможно выиграть старыми программами

At the time of these Olympics, I wasn't as much into skating as I am now so watching what Tracy Wilson said about the violations was enlightening and frustrating. Torvill and Dean have one violation, and are deducted, yet G&P had three and aren't deducted? I do remember my parents and their friends talking about this and complaining about it. Listening to what Rod Black, Debbie Wilkes and Brian Orser said they seem to also question it (I'm Canadian, so watch CTV)

That was the problem with the ice dance back then, it was all politics. Grishuk and Platov also had violations. More, IMO, then T&D. However, Torvill and Dean are legends and are all class. Talk about a soap opera, though, with G&P and U&Z! So glad ice dance is no longer a political affair.

冷战里有热情，再也看不到了，人变化太快。。

U&Z had a really dull but well-danced free program though.

Utter fix. I hope the German "judge" still has trouble sleeping at night,

still was a joke the winners actually fell and still won, I hated this scoring system in Ice Dance. To think now how different scoring was then and who the frequent winners were all the time. What a change now ehh?

Usova Zhulin would have won gold had the proper deductions been taken from Grishuck Platov's program.

Что за церемония

T & D were robbed of the Gold

Well, at least Gritchuk & Platov and Sotnikova can compare notes on what it feels like to be an undeserving Olympic champion...

Что за Гимн звучал?

Indoor robbery.

Shame Shame Shame

М,

Торвилл и Дин были есть и будут лучшими. Позор судейству.

Грищук похожа на доярку.
