[Tonichelle]

Anyone know when and if the Oly exhibition will be televised in the US?

NBC Sports is showing it Saturday at 12PM eastern. (I almost said 11 since I'm in Chicago.)

How do we figure out who will be skating in the event?

Just saw a tweet that Mao was invited to skate in it but no source was given.

I hope it's true.
Who else have been invited?

I know Takahashi is one of them.

MidnightSkater has posted about the BBC TV coverage of the Gala in the TV Schedule thread (All times GMT)

Sorry, forgot to say that BBC Red Button will show the Gala (Delayed) on Sunday :yay:

Quick update.
Gala on BBC Red Button 1 Saturday at 10.00pm.
Repeated on Sunday.

I just looked up http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/sochi-events, and they say that the Gala will be held from 16:30 - 19:00 GMT. So, it might be a good idea to keep an eye on the BBC website from 16:15 GMT onwards, just in case they stream it LIVE. (PLEASE SHOW IT LIVE!!!!)

Worth keeping an eye on it, but I rather think they'll be showing the men's bronze medal Ice Hockey match live... and it'll probably still be going when the gala starts.

I dont mind catching it on the red button later... and since it's BBC, no ad breaks - meaning we might actually see everything. My only gripe is that red button stuff isn't HD -_-

The schedule that I checked says that it is being shown live starting at 11.30 am (Eastern Standard Time) on their TSN network (channel 30 for me in Toronto). It should also be live-streamed then on their website.

Here's hoping Sotnikova replaces her wings with two giant rainbow flags.

 

[MidnightSkater]

Has an order of skate been shown for the Gala yet ?.
Or do we have to wait for the day ?.

Cross-posting from another gala thread:

Programming note for U.S. viewers of the NBC network telecasts (not NBCSN):

Seems that gala coverage will be included in both the late-night and primetime shows on Saturday (Feb 22).
