Nothing will top B.ESP uncles threatening to spank the judge who put S/Z second in ordinals after their breathtaking 2003 Worlds Turandot.
The British commentators comment after Shen/Zhao's FS 2003 Worlds:

I recently rewatched the Pairs final group FS from 2015 Worlds with the tdp commentators. The only thing I understood was their awed exclamations of wow! after seemingly every well-executed element. Their enthusiasm is definitely appreciated and infectious!
My absolute favorite is Simon Reed in this regard.
Slutskaya 2005 Worlds FS: "Oh YES! Just try to tell them [the audience] there's any doubt who has won this gold medal. The best performance of her life here at home in Moscow. No wonder the tears are starting to flow."
Shen/Zhao 2003 Worlds FS: "Goosebumps. [...] That was a performance that doesn't just take the gold. That rivals any pair skating perfomance in history, going back to the great Gordeeva and Grinkov and Mishkutenok and Dmitriev. [...] We don't need judges here. We don't need any judging system. [...] One judge has them second. Should be carried off and spanked."
EDIT: Oh, FSLover17 and steiner were faster. My bad.
Also, while I didn't like his commentating at all, Scott Hamilton's laugh after Slutskaya's high triple lutz in her SP in Turin.
Guess: 'it wasn't four and a half minutes, it was just no time at all'. Love that comment. Think of EC 2017 and pairs....
In this case commentators were Paloma del Río and Javier Raya (yes, the skater ). Paloma is always so respectful and nice everybody loves her in Spain
My turn. Guess: "...they were clapping along with the music. That's the first time I've ever heard that at a compulsory dance!"
