Just to let you know that I have updated my TV Schedule post to include the BBC, as well as some general entertainment channels owned by Discovery that have been added to the German and Swedish versions of the Eurosport Player.
The BBC do not give detailed schedules of what they are showing, so I was only able to find programmes that specifically mentioned figure skating. And there were not many.
I hate the way the BBC does the Olympics!

Do you know if BBC are adding multiple channels for the Olympics like they do with the Summer Olympics & Wimbledon ?. Only One Red Button channel there so far.
They're not. Eurosport have the multiple channels this time, but they're only available on Virgin and BT. If you have anyother provider, the only way to see more is to get the Eurosport Player.

Okay, I confess this question is probably partly due to laziness because I didn't see the answer skimming several things. Is the NBC stream of the skating from NBCOlympics.com going to be available to watch later if I cannot catch it live?
Why are ladies the only discipline to have a day off between short and long programs?
Is Ashley Wagner actually commentating for any network?

They could have given everyone a day break, by staggering the events like they used to:
Pairs SP - Men's SP - Pairs FS - Men's FS // SD - Ladies SP - FD - Ladies FS.
According to their TV listing ...
NBC Primetime coverage will definitely cut to other sports like they always do (Snowboarding and Alpine Skiing).
NBCSN coverage will show the earlier groups. There's also a "pregame show" from 6-7pm EST.
So yes, looks like you'll want to record both, as NBCSN figure skating coverage is only 2 hours long.
