I don't care if she is a British citizen with a name like Baranova, she will feel Russia in her heart. Look for a win for Khok/Nov.

Marika Humphreys was born and raised in England and competed for Great Britain in ice dance in the 1990s. One of her partners was Justin Lanning. Later she became a coach , judge and tech specialist.

She married Vitaliy Baranov, who is Ukrainian of Russian ehtnicity. I think they both coach together at the same rink in Britain.

Here she is, doing a solo exhibition in 2004.

You couldn't be more wrong Joe. Marika is a british skater who married her dance partner (Ukrainian born) Vitaly Baranov and they then went on to skate in the Olympics for Britain.

Marika is a beautiful skater and a brilliant choreographer and is British born and bread - in Chester to be specific.
