The BBC has apparently admitted defeat and cancelled the new Upstairs, Downstairs: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2133318/Upstairs-Downstairs-axed-BBC-admits-defeat-battle-Sunday-night-dramas.html?ito=feeds-newsxml I can't say that I'm surprised. I feel for the actors and the behind the scenes people of course, but I won't mourn the demise of this show.

Here's another magnificent performance from Gwendal and Marina, from the Olympic Games 1998:

I used to watch figure skating, but my interest has diminished somewhat in recent years. My favourite discipline was always the ice dancing, and this is probably my all-time favourite performance, Gwendal Peizerat and Marina Anissina from France in 1999. How they failed to win the gold medal is still a mystery to me......
