Phew, got the Men's FS finished just in time for the Gala.

We're starting now!

Anna Shcherbakova & Egor Goncharov

It's always amusing when the girl is wearing a beautiful dress, but the guy is just wearing a T-shirt and jeans. But, it did actually work here.

Loved the music they were skating to.

[Artemisa]

I think a dress of queen of hearts .. would be better ..

 

[Mathematician]

Missed Sh/G I'll re-watch on the break.

Mura's EX is a little ridiculous to me. Hoping it at least gives her the catharsis for playful programs so she keeps skating serious programs in competition next season.

 

[KhinSuShein]

Wow I like Sofia Muravieva's show both dance and sound

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Sofia Muravieva

Well, now we know. Alice in Wonderland is actually Lady Gaga in disguise.

That was a bundle of fun. I absolutely loved it!!!

[Mathematician]

M/E charming with a typical Nats-type exhibition for a winter mood.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Anastasia Mukhortova & Dmitry Evgenyev

Bonsai Tarasova wearing a white jumper and red skirt. Dima wearing a red jumper and black trousers.

I take it they are portraying the characters in a Russian drama series or film that I am unfamiliar with that this music was used in.

Some good mime acting at the start.

[EdgeCall]

The all-black outfit suits Gleb well.

They just portray a typical Russian family celebrating the new year. At the beginning of the program, they listen to the Kremlin Clock and drink champagne.

 

[Mathematician]

Gleb seems a little tired but to be fair, it must be a little harder for the guys to skate on the same day as their FS.

Ach, that's a let-down. I preferred my original theory.

Speaking of the new year, I hope we get to hear ABBA at the end of this gala. I've really missed hearing them the past couple of years.

[AlexBreeze]

Old gala by M/U

Why? They have newer ones

 

[Fetinia]

Litfullin skates using the song performed by a singer whose last name Malinin

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Gleb Lutfullin

He is wearing a black top and black trousers.

When I heard the choir at the start, I thought we were getting another religious programme. But when the main body of the song started, I realised it was going to be something more fun.

I really enjoyed that!

Oh, he had a fall. Well, at least it doesn't matter now.

[Fetinia]

Not sure why but Ustenko looks to me more like a pair skater...

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Ekaterina Mironova & Evgenii Ustenko.

Katya is wearing a white nightie (one of Viktoria Sinitsina's?) Zhenya is wearing all black.

I liked the amateur dramatics from Zhenya at the start.

A beautiful programme.

[AlexBreeze]

Not sure why but Ustenko looks to me more like a pair skater...

He's as tall a pair skater.

 

[Mathematician]

Anna seems to fall more often in exhibitions than competitions. I remember her falling at the Russian callout last year as well. Can't remember the last time she actually fell in a competition, though she can make mistakes.
