Reeds program is quite nice. A team with betters skills would have made wonders with it.. Still it was the best I've seen them skate..

Didn't really like the Japanese routine at all, not even with Zorba the Greek! Robin Cousins not impressed either, said didn't think the style suited their tall and romantic skating at all. He says they have lovely long lines that weren't shown off in the playful essence of Zorba.

I'm surprised myself. I liked this piece of Morozov's choreo. I thought one needed to 'feel' the country one's choreographing for. I thought Morozov wasn't capable of that, after everything he's said.

Actually they were very good, and entertaining; I have to say when the announced the Greek theme and I saw the costumes I assumed the worst...

Oh they are a good team, I like them, but those costumes are soo inappropiate for Zorba the Greek. Its like, I dunno, lets say, a team dancing to hip hop dressed as southern slaves from the 19th century.If they were a much higher profile team they would get a lot of trashing in the same vein as DomShabs have been getting.

I love the folk dance theme. It's an endless parade of ethnic stereotypes. They should never change it as the theme of the OD, except maybe to swap in disco, that'd be only thing that could bring a similar level of lulz.

Fab performance by the Brits with their Irish Folk Dance, loved the lifts and fit the Riverdance music perfectly. Had timing issues in the twizzles but still looked good!
46.33 and the crowd isn't happy about that score, booing all round the arena.
