There are two male commentators. It's Canadian television, so one is Johnny Esaw, who was a TV producer and huge fan of skating who really promoted it heavily on the CTV network. The other male voice is Toller Cranston. And the woman, as you said, is Debbi Wilkes.You got me curious, so I went looking and found a video of it:

By the way, who are the commentators? One of the male commentators sounds like Scott Hamilton to me, but he wasn't long retired from competitive skating. I don't know when Scott started commentating, but 2 years seems too soon in my mind. Especially at a time when he was starting off on a professional career.
At one stage, he addresses the female commentator by her first name. So, given that it is the Canadian Championships, I am guessing that she is Debbi Wilkes.
Anyway, I had to laugh when she was at pains to stress at the start that it was not an actual adaptation of the story. If she had quit there, it would have been alright. But she talked on. And by the time she finished, she had made it sound like the programme was definitely about incest.
It didn't look too bad to me. I've seen other attempts at romantic programmes by siblings that are more questionable than this one.
Yeah, I can imagine that situation being common.
