in words...

Love Story is probably their most famous long program. Lori Nichols choreographed it and the soundtrack is by Francis Lai.
They performed this program at many events such as 1999 Skate America, 2000 World Championships, 2001 Grand Prix Final and the 2002 Olympic Games.
In addition, Love Story includes a particular move, called the spoon move. It is known to be their signature. The current layout of this site portrays it.

The following exerpt comes from an article by Rosie DiManno. No infrigement is intended.
"...what Nichol describes as the "spooning moves'' - the skaters fitting inside one another rather than moving face-to-face. That piece of choreography resulted from Nichol's own situation when designing the program. Heavily pregnant at the time, Nichol was acutely sensitive to the embraces, physical intimacy, that could accommodate her own body. Those sentiments were incorporated into the tablature of the routine."
