Watch routine that won first British figure-skating world medal since Torvill and Dean

Figure skaters Lilah Fear and Lewis Gibson have won Great Britain’s first World Championship medal in the sport since the great era of Torvill and Dean.

The pair secured bronze in Boston, 41 years after Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean won their fourth global title.

“I can’t even describe my feelings, I’m still shaking,” said Fear afterwards. “I’m in disbelief.”
