Robert and Pat Dineen 1961 North American Championships FD

Rare, rare TV footage of Robert and Pat Dineen competing in ice dance at the 1961 North American Championships, just days before their ill-fated flight to the Worlds in Prague. They were not shown in the CBS broadcast of the 1961 US National Championships, which makes this clip even more special

The last time the world championships were canceled was 1961 - 50 years ago when the entire U.S. world team, along with coaches, family members, officials and judges were killed in a plane crash en route to the championships in Prague.

The International Skating Union, global governing body for figure skating and speedskating, finally decided Monday morning there is no way to have the World Figure Skating Championships take place in Tokyo as scheduled next week.

Anyone else here watching or at least keeping up with the World Championships? I don't have the money to shell out for internet feed and I don't have NBC Universal so I have to keep up on the boards and what not.

After the horrible year he's had I'm glad that Nobunari Oda is doing well so far. Hopefully he can have a great free skate. The US men aren't doing to bad considering. There less than a point away from each other.

Here's a link to the standings if anyone is interested http://www.isuresult...results/wc2011/

      Another World Discussion Thread

      By AbcNbc247 · Posted

      I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.

      As The World Turns Discussion Thread

      Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much.

      Another World Discussion Thread

        Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year.

      Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go.

      The Madonna Thread

      By Maxim · Posted

      Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.

      Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Chris B · Posted

      This is just a guess but I feel like the fact that they keep mentioning her dead husband is for a reason. We know Martin has a secret that likely involved someone dying. Martin's victim could be Alan which Leslie/Dana either knows about or finds out and she uses that to blackmail the family into letting her crimes slide.
