And of course, who can resist an evening watching curling?

Bruce Mouat led (or skipped, in curling parlance) GB to the silver medal in 2022, losing to Sweden in the final.

They’ll play nine round-robin matches – starting tonight against China – with the top four teams qualifying for the semi-finals.

That match gets under way at 18:05 GMT.

To get you in the mood for tonight’s ice dance finale (from 18:30 GMT), here’s Lilah Fear and Lewis Gibson’s rhythm dance routine from Monday night.

The British duo are in fourth place heading into the free dance.

The men’s ice hockey gets going a little later this afternoon with Slovakia playing Finland in Group B before Sweden take on hosts Italy later tonight.

Finland are the defending Olympic champions while Slovakia took bronze four years ago having beaten USA in the quarter-finals. They lost to Finland in the semis.

Revenge time?
