2026 Europeans - Free Dance - "Sheffield Whinesday"

[Wyliefan]

Lovely skate for them. Glad he got his bootlace problem fixed!

 

[Sally1214]

Looks like Charlene and Marco have done enough ... if the TES holds.

 

[Citlali]

That was lovely from Charlene and Marco

 

[Spikefan]

This was glorious, especially after R/A and after last year’s program.

 

[~tapdancer~]

Well that's that. G/F get the bronze.

 

[Private Citizen]

Guignard and Fabbri miles better than they were in Angers. They skate much bigger than the Loparevas. Still don’t think it will be enough to contend for a medal in Milan even with home ice advantage though.

 

[BittyBug]

Well his skate issue doesn’t seem to have phased them at all. Well done.

 

[Karen-W]

Well, that was lovely and the best they've skated all season, but the GOE for so many of their elements says it all. They'll be lucky to remain on the podium today.

 

[Aceon6]

More speed and flow than the RD, still not their best vehicle

 

[annie_mg]

I'm pretty sure they will go ahead of the French, even though I preferred L/B. They skated very well. I love their music, but I love Italians and Italian.

 

[Nadin]

Wow!! Their skating skills are something else, deep edges and they cover loads of ice. Not usually a fan of their programmes but this was just beautiful.

 

[Braulio]

Grazie Charlene and Marco for all these years, European swan song

 

[peibeck]

G/F running out of gas still during the last 45 seconds that really drains the impact of this program for me.

 

[tony]

Twizzles 4/4
One foot 2/2
CiSt 3/2

All lifts 4

 

[Matryeshka]

This was the best they've ever skated this FD. First time it's held my attention. If there was any justice, both G/F and L/B would be on the podium.

 

[kirkbiggestfan]

Barbara’s death stare at that boot! She’s not gonna make it this season.

 

[MsZem]

Well his skate issue doesn’t seem to have phased them at all. Well done.

They've skated since the dawn of time, so it would take more than that to phase them

 

[LilJen]

A bit of a generic program but well skated. I’ve had a soft spot for tiny Marco since I saw him years ago at Skate America. Tiny but mighty.

 

[SidelineSkater]

This is an example of a program that works for them. The RD...not so much. They've had a bunch of hit or miss programs over the years. I'd say about even hit or miss.

 

[SidelineSkater]

I like Babs' blue fuzzy top. I want to give her a hug.

 

[Aussie Willy]

You just gave a long post about how the elements didn't fit the music in D/S program and it would be so hard to judge and all, but you "really like this program" that they've essentially skated the same thing for 3 years so I just found it

So I gave you an explanation which I think is the right thing to do but now you mock it? Is no-one else allowed to provide an opinion? But hey what would I know? Have only been judging for 20 years. And have done music for goodness knows how long.

 

[Spikefan]

If Laurence can wear underwear, Lewis should be allowed a kilt.

 

[Wyliefan]

Oh man! I thought Lilah looked nervous, but I hoped the crowd energy was going to help her.

 

[Karen-W]

Oh no! Major twizzle error! And that will cost them any chance at the title.

Okay, let's watch the competition because there was no mocking to be found . And I never said you didn't know anything.

 

[Spikefan]

A 3 for her twizzle, that’s a 1.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Oh wow. Lilah looked like she's going to puke going into the twizzles, but I didn't expect it to be such a complete disaster.

 

[Lanie]

She looked so nervous

 

[miffy]

If Laurence can wear underwear, Lewis should be allowed a kilt.

Is he not? John Kerr wore one a few times.

 

[Braulio]

I needed this mistake AT the Olympics
