They have been left baffled as to how the skating partners will be included into soap storylines.

Another Emmerdale fan said: “Torvill and Dean, the show still hasn’t improved even after Jane Hudson has left, the writers are dreaming.”
A third fan pondered: “Well I don’t know how they will fit into storyline, it’s usually who’s shacked up with who, or who’s pregnant or who’s murdered who…”
A final person commented: “Why ?? Whatever for lol. Someone’s getting desperate.”
