Big lead for Wendy Holdener, must surely win now. Errrrmmmm…..

Yes, is on the Discovery Player, unless there is rights issue in

Injured & in the TV commentary box for online streaming!

Big shock as Georgia beat Wales in Cardiff. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/63687627

Scottish Curling Women move to 2-0 after a 7-4 win over

PRC = People’s Republic of China. DPRK = Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

Oh dear, Charlie DNF. But there’s a god result coming.

Damn, had €100 on Wendy Holdener to win, said nobody ever. Shiffrin moves to 75 liftetime, closing in on Lindsay Vonn.

Incidentally, Therese Johaug now doing the “…and how did you feel when the cow attacked you?” post-race interviews for Norwegian TV.

Game 1 in the Curling - Women beat Turkey last night, men have just beaten German 6-4 after extra end. Charlie Guest has qualified 9th in the first round of the first Levi Slalom

This has snuck up on me unawares - European Championships from Ostersund start tonight! Here's the televised schedule - all games on the World Curling PPV setup, semis and finals on ES & the Olympic Channel. Le Gruyère AOP European Curling Championships 2022 broadcast schedule - World Curling Federation

The moderate good news is that Norway does at least have frost now.

One vote for Bartosz Zmarzlik here!

He’s not in charge; he’s just put there by the people who are in charge to do all the embarrassing stuff.

And we also get a Nordic Combined season opener from Norway this weekend, although I guess the jumping will be highlights only. Queans (old Scottish version of the Norwegian word) & Men on both Saturday and Sunday. Kombinert – November 2022 – NRK TV

We have races on TV today, just as for the biathlon last week. Classic sprint races from Sweden Längdskidor: Bruksvallarna – Sammandrag av sprintprolog samt finalen | SVT Play And Sprint races from Norway - remember, it doesn't work from the Direkte / Live page, only from individual Sport - Langrenn - page. Langrenn – I dag kl. 13:10 – Klassisk sprint, finaler – NRK TV And same thing tomorrow & Sunday. Same programme for both countries, would you believe Friday - Classic sprints Saturday - Classic middle distance ITT Sunday - Freestyle middle distance ITT Very possibly from Finland as well, but my brain would explode if I tried.

Nobody wants to say this, but I’m convinced that 95% of athlete heart issues are related to COVID. Not since EPO 25 years ago have we seen so many athlete deaths.

Not so much a fact, as a piece of propaganda. Nobody can possibly know the population of the world. We in have not the faintest clue what our true population is. Do you think Mauretania or Yemen have more accurate, up-to-the minute figures?

Come on guys! Phrygian hats, worn by manumitted slaves in Ancient Rome, adopted by a symbol of freedom by the French revolutionaries in 1790. Also 1830, 1848, 1870 & 1968.

TV coverage is on the Olympic Channel - starts at midnight UK time.

That’s a very good result for - Ukaleq Slettemark 3rd in Sjusjoen. 0 0 & only 15 secs behind. Some PBs coming this season, I reckon. Got an interview on Norwegian TV which naturally I could not understand, but she seemed happy.

Amazing drama in the v semi - 26-26 at full time. Goes to extra time. Win 27-26! Face in the final.

Yeah, that is the secret. You can watch live & on demand just by starting here https://tv.nrk.no/serie/skiskyting/ But not from the Direkte page. Now wondering if the Norwegian National Bank Gold Reserves have the same people working for them.

Damn! I had it working for a while but a crack team of Norwegian copyright commandos have helicoptered into my window & switched it off!

Norwegian TV works, so 4 races today & tomorrow! https://tv.nrk.no/serie/skiskyting/202211/MSPO40500222/avspiller Hmm, not so fast.....it works on my Ipad using the Brave Browser, but not on my PC!
