Yes, i thought that was odd. The 90s was a long decade.

I worked in a record shop for a lot of it. There was a lot of music. not all of it good

Grin

Was that’s the music theme though?

I LOVE 'Muppets Christmas Carol' ,

In my opinion -and I did my English lit dissertation on Dickens- it's the best version.

I love Kermit.

Can't go wrong with singing vegetables.

I’m sorry. That must have been very traumatic. The 90s were rubbish.

Raahh · 15/02/2026 21:57

In the Ice dance , the theme for the short programme was the 90s, yes.

Applecharlotte2 · 15/02/2026 21:57

Woo we’ve made it to first page of medal table - albeit at the bottom!

Applecharlotte2 · 15/02/2026 21:58

Oh great bob sleigh tomorrow!

PistachioTiramisu · 16/02/2026 08:32

Did we see the medal ceremony for Matt and Tabby? If so I must have missed it - would love to have seen our flag go up and the National Anthem played.

EleanorReally · 16/02/2026 08:35

yes and she in particular seemed to enjoy singing the national anthem. so lovely to see

Seems Canada are losing their gentlemanly reputation in this Olympics with one of their ice hockey players being removed for fighting…

Fallulah · 16/02/2026 11:34

I too am confused by the emergence of another ice skating competition - I thought we were all done after the pairs, the quad falling men and the bald coach that wore 14
different coats in the kiss and cry.

Is it like the difference between artistic and rhythmic gymnastics?

And, do we get to see the gala?

Yes it’s pairs free tonight for the medals, pairs is different to ice dance as it incorporates higher lifts and jumps. Then we have the women’s individual competition. The gala on Saturday is unlikely to be on BBC but I’ll be watching it on TNT. It seems Ilia Malinin is preparing an exhibition skate on mental health, possibly to ‘Fear’ by NF.

Fab - thanks! We have TNT so I’ll set a reminder for the gala - I will never complain about my partner taking all the sports packages on Sky again. It’s more than paying its way at the moment!

I watched it on the BBC, it's switched to slalom now though.
