Wow! I did not expect to enjoy the North Korean team as much as I did. Nice flow!

Bit rip-off Shen/Zhao choreo, but surprisingly strong skate (good throws and lifts). They should compete more

I have to say, peese, you seem to know exactly how to watch figure skating: with a relaxing beverage.

Tonight's beer is Red Hook Audible Pale Ale. ;)

Have never heard of it!! The name even sounds like fun. Love this team!!

Lovely. nice to see old school pairs - ie not so busy you can't see what's going on. Some lovely unison skating and their throws were solid. hope they come back

Was I imagining things, or was there an aborted lift towards the end of the programme?

Whether there was or not, I am really impressed with the North Koreans.

But, please, ditch the white make-up! You don't need it! :drama:

Nice to see their skate. I am so impressed with how they are doing considering they likely have limited access to resources compared to other teams.

Sorry for D/R's withdrawal. Just watched their SP and for the first time I feel Megan looks pretty (on ice) with a delicate feel.

Obviously need more gelling time, they are overall hesitant and lacking connection/conviction

Ah. Didn't realise that was the background to the long surname. I just thought it was a posh double-barrelled name. :laugh:

So, French Canadians do like the Spanish and Portuguese then. I'm happy to hear that. I always liked the tradition of honouring both parents.

Mmmm. Francis and Sumire are considerably behind the Koreans on TES.

Too bad about that jump bauble. I really liked creative promise of this team.
