Gutted for the Germans, but thrilled for the Japanese with that thrilling routine they gave us tonight

 

[PercyPig]

They should do a winners performance now

Gutted for the Germans, but thrilled for the Japanese with that thrilling routine they gave us tonight

Especially after they thought they’d fucked it up with their first dance

 

[straightorbroken]

We still have the women's solo I hope? I've been looking forward to that Time To Say Goodbye performance that retiring woman has been saving for the occasion.

 

[straightorbroken]

Watching the centipede team pursuit. The Dutch are just insanely good at speed skating.

Can't believe they got that back.

 

[straightorbroken]

2 man bob heats 3 and 4 will air on 2 at 6.

 

[PercyPig]

That evil cheating Canadian curler is giving American vibes all over

 

[Madison]

This Big Air competition was INCREDIBLE.

 

[Eddie]

This Big Air competition was INCREDIBLE.

And the commentary is infectious.

 

[Madison]

And now comes the curling to bring the mood down.

 

[straightorbroken]

And the commentary is infectious.

Until they said "bosh".

 

[Agneeta]

And now comes the curling to bring the mood down.

It's an intellectual pursuit.

 

[straightorbroken]

Women's figure skating at 9.10pm thank goodness.

 

[PercyPig]

And the commentary is infectious.

They both do such a good job of selling something where you have no idea what’s going on apart from the athlete not face planting the snow being a good thing

 

[Lucille]

I’ve been enjoying the women’s figure skating! A lot less falls than the USELESS MEN. Although the current leader is a Russian who did a routine to a MICHAEL JACKSON medley.

 

[dmlaw]

Looks like the maple syrup devils are going inflict another loss on GB.

 

[straightorbroken]

Since they're all Scottish, would love the British team to crank up their accents if not the slang when discussing and shouting so that the Canadians wouldn't understand them.

 

[Ellie]

One of those Canadians looks far too much like the Sherminator from American Pie.

 

[straightorbroken]

No Canada, the racket was still for the Italian win that had yet to settle.

 

[PercyPig]

One of those Canadians looks far too much like the Sherminator from American Pie.

That’s the double tapper!

 

[Lucille]

Obsessed with the Japanese 17 year old who just took the lead and landed a triple axel without breaking a sweat.

 

[Lucille]

We have a skate to SUSAN BOYLE!

 

[straightorbroken]

I'd have preferred a Janet megamix.

 

[straightorbroken]

The coach

 

[straightorbroken]

Robin Cousins reassuring us the jump she's about to do is on "the good leg".

 

[straightorbroken]

This Japanese girl is absolutely wonderful.

 

[Ellie]

This Japanese girl is absolutely wonderful.

That was incredible! And she looks about 12.

 

[straightorbroken]

That was incredible! And she looks about 12.

Some of it made me think of Shirley Temple!

 

[straightorbroken]

Loved badger hair girl as well. So stunning in between all the jumps too.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oooooh. I expected her to be first.

 

[straightorbroken]

Gorgeous <3

 

[straightorbroken]

I thought that was Martha Stewart up there with Snoop Dog and Malinin.

 

[straightorbroken]

What a rousing finale. What a top 3. Gutted for Miss Amber Glenn though. I take it you can't try the jump again later on then?

 

[Lucille]

The short program has several required elements, one is a triple jump, if the jump is a double it’s considered a fail and no points are awarded.

Harsh!

It wasn’t?

 

[Lucille]

It was they’re besties.

 

[Finn]

 

[straightorbroken]

It wasn’t?

I'm sure it was (just checked), but I thought they said it was someone else commentating.

Robin Cousins mentioned it's easier to "try again" in a solo routine as opposed to a pairs, but perhaps the steps routine or spins couldn't be sacrificed here to do this. Since we all know programmes have required elements (what with the whole being marked thing let alone it being mentioned in every routine) maybe there just wasn't the room. Bless her though.
