I'm glad the Japanese pair won. I know she fell but it was still full of difficulty and content

I thought the S Korean man and woman singles skaters were excellent.

Just watching the Ice Dance and finding the first two sessions a bit samey. I think it's the music, it's all wispy and dramatic. Hope it picks up a bit in the last session.

I agre with you about the South Koreans. Much preferred their routines. It's all very nice being able to do 6 quads but if your components are a mess you don't deserve a big score.
Just Shona to go.

Yes, six quad guy was good but left a lot to be desired artistically. That quad axel was impressive though!

I wasn’t aware there was any on at the moment. Have googled and can’t find an international championship.

The World Championships in Montreal start on the 18th March. Here’s hoping we get some coverage, even if it’s just on iPlayer!

No reference in next week’s RT, but I think if all else fails it may be streamed on YouTube under ISU figure skating. 🤞
