The Denis Ten YouTube channel with the live stream is gone.

Is it possible that our qq friend might stream it? I accidentally caught some of those streams while Nepela and Nebelhorn were going on...

I don’t know what you mean by qq friend or how one might accidentally catch a stream.

I don’t know what you mean by qq friend or how one might accidentally catch a stream.

Figure skating fan Mu Hongsu's Chinese channel--https://live.qq.com/10154004 (except those last 8 digits won't work for this tournament); don't know if this live broadcasting station will be running for Dennis Ten Memorial, etc. I was able to click on the link when I saw it while looking at the thread for the Women's SP, and I got in! Link doesn't always work; there is a limit as to how many can get into a 'room', etc....so for me it was kind of an 'accident' because I didn't know if it would work. But for me it did--that day, at that time.

Looks like Caro_Liza fan has given us a new UT channel which should work, though! See message #5.

I've seen many Queen programmes over the years, but this programme by Semyon REZNIK (KAZ) is the first I have seen to "Mother Love".

It really worked! More people should look further into Queen's back catalogue, rather than just going straight for the big hits. Because there are some hidden gems in there. Such as this song.

A great way to start the day!

EDIT: Sorry, I forgot this was the Senior Free Dance thread. I'll shut up now. ​

There is a junior men's thread !

The stream has started. Best wishes to all dancers.

When we saw them briefly at the start, Sofía was wearing a black body warmer.

Next time we saw them, it was off and we saw her dress.

When the camera came to focus on them, another partnership nearly collided with them. Then we saw a bit of their step sequence.

Next time they were focussed on, they were finishing off a section of their programme.

Shortly afterwards, we saw them holding hands.

Then at the one minute warning, we saw Asaf holding Sofía aloft, and then setting her down.

The last time we saw them, they were separate.

Not much to go on. It's hard to keep track of anybody when the camera shot switching is so frantic.

Congrats to Kristina DOBROSERDOVA / Alessandro PELLEGRINI on their SB.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I was thinking "it's a good job that the two Spanish partnerships are not back-to-back today. It'll give Kirill a chance to be with both of them".

But I hadn't noticed that the other partnership in their camp, Gaukhar NAURYZOVA / Boyisangur DATIEV (KAZ), were going just before Philomène SABOURIN / Raúl BERMEJO (ESP)!

Enjoyed Gaukhar NAURYZOVA / Boyisangur DATIEV's sl lift near the end of the dance. Love the enthusiastic audience support for the home team.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Awwww. That was lovely. When Gaukhar and Boyisangur were taking their bows, you could see Philomène and Raúl in the background applauding their tream-mates.

I really like these two. They were good to start with, but joining Sara, Kirill and Ksenia's camp has really brought them further on.

As expected, Kirill was with them for a while, but then had to leave.

They go into the lead of both the Free and overall.

WELL DONE GAUKHAR AND BOYISANGUR!!!

And here come their team-mates!

ALL THE BEST PHILOMÈNE AND RAÚL!!!

Happy that Philomene was able to recover from the stumble without falling. I am intrigued by the strapping worn in their costumes. I guess I will have to look into the story of their dance.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Philomène and Raúl have come on so much since I first saw them last season.

I have to be honest, this is not the programme I was expecting from their costumes. I was expecting a motorsports themed programme. Lets face it, in those costumes, Raúl looks like a Ferrari driver and Philomène looks like a grid girl.

Nevertheless, I loved it!!!

Kirill is able to stay with them.

OK. What is Raúl up to with the mask?! Philomène is in stitches laughing!

They go into the lead of both the FS and overall.

WELL DONE PHILOMÈNE AND RAÚL!!!

Oh dear. We have been having storms since yesterday, and the electric momentarily went off for a second just as Charise MATTHAEI / Max LIEBERS (DEU) were being introduced. (We were actually expecting it to go off last night, but it didn't).

It's a good job I'm on the laptop and we have a battery back-up for the internet. I don't want to miss my kids, who are up next!

CaroLiza_fan

 

[auser]

I love the deep green color of Charise MATTHAEI / Max LIEBERS's costumes. Do my eyes deceive me or do I detect some Chock/
bates influence in their lifts? Good luck to your kids @CaroLiza_fan!

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

And now we have the third partnership from Sara, Kirill and Ksenia's camp. My kids!!! With their "Exogenesis Symphony"-but-with-a-strange-story-attached programme.

ALL THE BEST SOFÍA AND ASAF!!!
