SP: 65.51 PB

I know this team has been disappointed in their PCS scores in the past... it's the first half of this program. It takes elevator music to a whole new level. As always, technically very impressive.

It is the cry of the skating fan

"WTF is this cover?!!"

Oh thank God here's the original.

 

[icewhite]

very concentrated performance

 

[elektra blue]

they looked slow probably focused on their elements. well done anyway

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Well done Masha and Lyosha

 

[QuadThrow]

The Hungarians might be on the podium after the SP with that!

If this is anything to go by, I am glad I haven't been watching any of the Senior GP's so far.

That was awful!

Ah, Freddie has arrived late. I was going to say that he must have been affected by the bus strikes, but they aren't until next week.

Sorry, but that cover at the start just spoiled any enjoyment I might have had of this programme.

I actually like the cover this time. It's slowed down but it works for me. I don't like the original much. Prefer FM's single songs anyway.

 

[EdgeCall]

Not bad!

A bit calm for the second part of the music, where they could have shown a little more energy. But overall their substitution was a blessing.

 

[icewhite]

I really like these costumes.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Although the Hungarians technical elements were really well done.

And hey Fedor K shout out from Mark for you @LadyB

 

[LadyB]

Personal best - fantastic!!!

I know, I know, SBS jumps matter, but this team is really fantastic and I love their skating so much.

 

[LadyB]

Love the music for Gh/Am!

 

[elektra blue]

not their best performance

 

[EdgeCall]

Not entirely clean.

"The Ecstasy of Gold" is a fitting choice for figure skating.

 

[ana]

Go Sara/Niccolo!

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Now that is more like it!!!

I may not be a fan of cowboy films, but Morricone was a genius. Love his music.

Was not expecting a rock version to come in.

I LOVED THAT!!!

Oh, shut up Mark and let us enjoy the skating in peace!

What?! 2nd?! I was expecting that to go into the lead.
