Frau, will you let us know if you hear whether D&L are going to skate or if they withdraw.

If the Eurosport guys say so, I'll report on them, Dee.

So far, nothing heard about D&L...I'm assuming that they're 'on.' They won't skate for another two hours or so...towards end of Gp 4. [Alas, only 5 couple per skate group, so they are in next-to-last gp.]

Fraser/Lukanin of Azerbaijan into first:

Eurosport reports:
They get a big cheer on completion of their piece, and some fans even throw flowers and teddie bears into the rink! It was, to be honest, a very competent display out there which could have been better served, I must say, by a more upbeat and fast-flowing song. Let's see what the judges think: And they like it!! The Azerbaijanis are way in the lead - 45.26 + 31.88 = 77.14 and 148.24 overall. That will put the pressure on the rest of the group - all placed higher after the first two components - to perform tonight.

5 FRASER Kristin / LUKANIN Igor AZE 20 27.27 19 43.83 1 77.14 1 148.24 4 GREBENKINA Anastasia / AZROJAN Vazgen ARM 22 24.28 20 43.83 3 69.88 2 137.99

Pechalat/Bouzat of France skating now. Alas, so far Eurosport only giving the 'ticker text' from Simon & Chris. I hope that the actual TV (audio) coverage comes on soon. At least we know what's happening....

here's text on the French:
Nathalie Pechalat and Fabian Bourzat of France perform Les Miserables hoping that they will be far from miserable at the end of the night. They sit in 18th before tonight, on 72.66 points. And they're certainly getting into the theme of things by wearing mock French city peasant outfits. But I'm afraid it's a pretty weak start, lifted by an innovative lift and hold midway through. But after a series of spins, Nathalie almost stumbles! A successful one-handed hold and spin makes sure they end on a high note, but I think they will drop from their 18th place with that display.

Welll they're into first. Bit of a surprise, given the stumbles, think the Eurosporters:

6 PECHALAT Nathalie / BOURZAT Fabian FRA 16 28.59 17 44.07 2 76.65 1 149.31
5 FRASER Kristin / LUKANIN Igor AZE 20 27.27 19 43.83 1 77.14 2 148.24
4 GREBENKINA Anastasia / AZROJAN Vazgen ARM 22 24.28 20 43.83 4 69.88 3 137.99

Hoffman/Elek of Hungary now. Flamenco Medley.

Up to 15thin World last yr but struggled this year. Nice here....big applause. Shall they move up here?

"No fallers yet," says Simon. "It's a long night yet!" quips Chris.

Hungarians into 2nd with 1st-place FD so far. . Jamie & Ryan stay in 1st (despite 3rd-best FD so far)!

Watanabe/Kido of Japan
My Fair Lady


***
They can really use every inch of the ice...but free legs swing too much for my liking (Simon says).

Good synchro on twizzles.

oops...a little stumble there...but no fall.

Nice ending spin. Big applause. "Crowd really loves that!"

"Really sell it well...but from waist-down, not much going on."

Into 1st!

CCTV-5 is not currently playing the ice dance. Some skiing event. I hope they'll tune in for the last two groups, at least.

Do you have a link to the eurosport radio, Frau?

I don't know but I don't bother, as it is jumpy & freezing, at best. Rather listen to smooth audio in real time, then watch smoothly at night (& on fsvids later).

It's an ice resurfacing, by the way. Eurosport is off for a rest for 15-20 mins.

OH NO!!!!!! How sad!!! They have the prettiest, dreamiest FD but, considering how hard Marie-France fell, it's understandable.

Hopefully they'll come back in great form for Worlds!!!

Ice resurfaced & gp 3 is warming up now.

Gregory/Petukhov of USA about to skate....followed by the (now) lone Canadians in this event -- Wing/Lowe.

"Sinead & John looking good in warm-up...they've really done us proud. Scottish medley coming up."

The guys explain why D&V got three points in deductions last night....both he & she fell (2 pts there) AND they held a lift too long (3rd pt off).

Gregory/Petukhov
Romeo & Juliet

***starting soft music****

****forceful march****
"Really dangerous lift." big applause

"That was a really strong, powerful opening. Good speed. Gt ice coverage."
***softer music****
REALLY good speed on that back spin!"

***faster music***
"Oh, nasty moment there...but Denis recovered well."

END

A really good program. Strong. too bad for that little edgy moment but otherwise super.
