Lilah Fear & Lewis Gibson

[Ruthypegs]

Congrats to Lilah and Lewis, first British ID medal in forty years, I think?

41 years since an ID medal at Worlds, 31 since an ID medal at Olympics.

Great news anyway! A nice article here, too https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2...-bronze-to-end-britains-31-year-medal-drought

Great interview here with Lilah and Lewis - https://www.teamgb.com/article/in-q...-fear-and-lewis-gibson/4XNxtOBnZgOESss4q4mhsp - love the home-made cardboard skates!

According to their Instagram Lilah & Lewis will be using music by the Proclaimers, a Scottish duo, for their free program.

It is so much fun - I've just come back from the premiere (!) at the Bolero Cup - from 3:49:26 (if the stream is still available) https://www.youtube.com/live/leP6YopoH2g

There were a few bobbles today, but it's a fantastic programme - one of their best yet - I think it will bring the house down at Euros.

Both RD and Free Dance a little rough around the edges at Bolero Cup. But both really promising and look better to me than last year's routines. The Scottish Free Dance really does have that Olympic feeling.

Hopefully the routines will be a bit more polished for Nebelhorn at the end of the Month.

I also found the music cuts in the free to be a little jarring, but the energy and personality are already there in spades! It is sure to be a crowd pleaser later in the season.

Not sold on the music cut for spice girls but it’s not awful. Will have to see how it evolves in the season. I LOVE HER UNION JACK DRESS

Lilah & Lewis are in my top 3 for favorite ice dance teams. Their medal at Boston Worlds was one of the event highlights for me.

I am really excited for their Scottish free dance! I have been wishing for ages that more people would skate to Celtic music (other than Riverdance).

Grand Prix de France looks like a tough field, and I hope they are ready to fight. It sounds like Lilah is, based on a recent interview . I will be rooting for them the most in France.

Wonder if any other ice dance teams have their own dedicated pyjamas? - https://www.next.co.uk/style/su736731/f81661

Yeah, I was really heartbroken for them, too.

Me too!

Me, too. And I love that program so much.

While not a big follower of Ice Dance, such a shame for Lilah and Lewis at Worlds. Hope they'll still continue for another quad. Surely many more medals in the horizon if they continue.
