More skating:
Deanna Stellato-Dudek and Maxime Deschamps free programme. Deanna is 40 and most skaters are considered old after 25. She originally skated singles, had a 16-year break from competing, and came back as a pair skater.

But there was this well-remembered routine back in 2006, concluding with a display of the Death Stare...

We got problems with the radio here ... That's pretty evident.

Looks like CNN could do with the hint as well.
Re: We need more
Talking of dodecahedrons...
They are much harder to make than the other platonic solids. My money is on the Roman ones as some sort of guild piece or demonstration of the maker's skill.

Re: We need more
How well-spoken and intelligent is that young lady? Can you imagine an interview like that today, interspersed with the words 'like' 'OMG' 'totally, really really, etc. If only the UK had kept its educational standards at that level.
Re: We need more
Even if slightly virtue-signalling in its title, a heartwarming story:
She was the first Black woman to fly in the US Air Force. Now this trailblazing pilot is making her final flight

Re: We need more
2:15 video with glimpses of Plymouth, Aberdeen, Liverpool, Stirling, Market Drayton, Cockington, Cardiff, London:Colour films are insanely rare in the 1920s, which makes this 26-part travelogue of the UK exceptional. Filmed in 1924 by Claude Friese-Greene using his father's colour process invention, I've edited a preview for Twitter, but it is now available on DVD, restored by the BFI
