Nice summary video to start with. (Both of my Junior girls, Vasilisa and Varvara, were shown )

It was interesting seeing how the draw was done in the second video. (Varvara was one of the ones we saw going up).

Third video was interrupted. Does this mean we're going to start?

OK, now they're repeating the first video.

Get on with it!

Finally! It is starting. And the arena is absolutely packed!

Awww. Lovely video of Denis.

I'm getting emotional.

Great opening group number, with young skaters accompanied by young musicians / singers.

Then Dias joined in.

Wish they would use the camera that shows the whole rink. There is so much going on!

CaroLiza_fan

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I forgot they have a pile of speeches after the Opening number.

GET ON WITH IT!!!

I don't want to have to break away for my evening meal!

Looks like we are starting with the Juniors. And local ones at that.

First, Artur joining the ranks of waiters.

And then Veronika turning French. And unfortunately having a fall.

Then back to the boys, with Temirlan telling us that "It's A Man's Man's Man's World". Fortunately it was the original, not the abomination that we heard in the Free Dance!

Drat. Didn't catch the names of the partnership skating to "Barbie Girl".

I'll get back to them in the interval.

EDIT: No need - it's Alicia and Paul

No need to say what colour the girl is wearing!

Oh, it's actually a medley. Onto a completely different type of song

Is that Sophie Ellis Baxter with the last song?

MY BABY!!!!

ALL THE BEST VASILISA!!!

CaroLiza_fan

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

SHE'S SKATING TO SHAKIRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And it is my favourite Shakira song too - "Objection"!!!

This little girl knows how to make me very happy!

Mmmm. It turned into a remix in the second half.

WELL DONE CHAMP!!!

Maria Sannikova and somebody Kazimov

Is this Anna's little sister?

Maria Sannikova and somebody Kazimov

Is this Anna's little sister?

CaroLiza_fan

And two skaters later, here is Anna!

[CaroLiza_fan]

It's Quasimodo Daniliants!

I knew the robes were going to be ditched at some stage, but I was not expecting him to be wearing that!

And a second costume change!

Will there be a third? Does he think he's one of those dolls?

I hope he remembers to gather everything up at the end.

Ah, he's doing it already during the programme.

@elektra blue - your baby girl is dreaming a dream here!

And a beautiful dream it is too! Not miserable at all!

[CaroLiza_fan]

Awww. A beautiful tribute video to Frank Carroll.

CaroLiza_fan

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

A really beautiful programme from Dias.

A fitting way to follow the tribute to Frank beforehand.

[CaroLiza_fan]

Now some "Hot Stuff" from the Taschlers. (No, that sounds weird!)

Don't know the next song in the medley.

"Enough Is Enough"?! Not exactly the message to be sending the judges!

CaroLiza_fan

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Weird remix of "Boléro" for Sofia Samodelkina.

That dress is gorgeous!!!

But I would say that - it reminds me of a dress that Liza Tuktamysheva was wearing in one of my old avatars!
