Figure Skating: World Championships Highlights
Sue Barker presents coverage of the 2013 World Figure Skating Championships from London, Ontario in Canada.
With just a year to go before the Winter Olympics in Sochi, competition will be fiercer than ever. At last year’s championships, Italy’s Carolina Kostner was the star, winning gold in the ladies’ free, while Canadian sensation Patrick Chan won his second successive world title in the men’s event. There will be highlights of all four free programmes – the pairs, men’s, ladies’ and the ice dance. Sue will be joined by 1980 Olympic champion Robin Cousins.

I believe NBC proper will be doing a broadcast on the weekend.
Also, icenetwork will have it on demand after the NBC broadcast.
When I was still able to get Universal Sports, if NBC was broadcasting, sometimes it wouldn't be on US sports till the next day after NBC?
Doris,if you find any direct reference to this, I sure would like to set my DV-R but I see no coverage by NBC what so ever....please prove me wrong.....
NBC will broadcast a 2 hr. program on March 23rd. Nothing next week.

For those of us who no longer have Eurosport International since it went digital. :disapp:
(And who get frustrated by unreliable streams).
Waiting for the rest of the live BBC online/red button coverage to be announced (for Sat or Sun). But disappointing that BBC is only beginning coverage from Friday onwards when the event starts on Wednesday.
Will someone post NBC propers times? Heather Winfield does not have anything for Worlds. NBC is not covering this more extensively? Oh I hope I can pick up live feeds but I usually forget the odd times they happen. Is Ontario a diff time zone than east coast-gotta look at map, i guess. ill look thru thread to see if nbc coverage is happening. I cannot understand this-its Worlds!!!!
