I'm gonna stay up

I'm up anyway...

Just a wee reminder that Eurosport's bumper 7 hour coverage of the Cup Of China continues in 10 minutes with the Pairs Short.

Here are some streaming links:

Eurosport 2 International livestream

British Eurosport 2 livestream

I'm still trying to catch up with the Men's after having my dinner (Doornbush is about to start), so that's why I won't be commenting as we go along.

Hope this helps

I'm a bit emotionally drained after the ladies and the men, hoping to relax with (hopefully) some decent pairs skating :yes:

Lota · Nov 7, 2014

Rooting for Peng/Zhang here

Their kiss&cry always looks interesting (and by interesting I mean slightly disturbing) but I like them in general and am a fan of their programs this year.

That was an unfortunate fall. But a beautiful skate, nonetheless.

Lota · Nov 7, 2014

I was thinking wow, such a pleasant surprise from them, and then the fall happened :bang:

P.s. not many people left here to watch the pairs, huh? :laugh:

Oh my god, at a quick glance + my fuzzy feed Souza-Kordyeru really does remind me of Szolkowy!

People are too busy arguing about other things :disapp:

This Chinese couple was superb till the "stupid" error. I didn't know anything about them, but they look really promising and are beautiful to watch

Alba · Nov 7, 2014

That throw was beautiful and big from B&D. Very nice skating, as usual from her.
Pity that she continues to fight with the sbs jump. But this is their best skating so far. Good for them.

Only about 1 point spread among the top three so far. All promising and good to watch and needing experience.

As soon as they came onto the ice, Mark Hanretty said the same!

When I saw him from a distance, I agreed. But, seeing Antonino close up when they were waiting for the results, I thought he was more like Barack Obama!
