We really want to win so that we will end up going | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
to worlds in Canada. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:10 | |
SCREAMING AND CHEERING | 0:00:10 | 0:00:14 | |
-BOTH: -We're going to Canada. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:18 | |
Skating with Josh just feels natural because we've skated together | 0:00:18 | 0:00:22 | |
so long and we're really good friends. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:24 | |
The Icicles are up against the best young synchro skaters at the | 0:00:43 | 0:00:47 | |
Junior World Championship. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:48 | |
You represented your country and that is something you should be | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
-amazingly proud of. -Icicles! | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
With just a week to go before the end of season gala, | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
Josh and Kloe face a costume nightmare. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
It just felt so uncomfortable. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
And it looks like Jellie will have to forget their long-awaited return | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
to the ice. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:06 | |
I can't do lifts at the minute. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:10 | |
We'd like to welcome on board the Great Britain | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
junior synchronised ice skating team who are going to Toronto to compete | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
at the World Championships there. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |
Canada! | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
Hi, guys. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
She just gave me loads of pretzels because she's | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
nice, even though I've had my own bag. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
After success at this year's British Championships, | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
the Icicles are heading on a 3,500 mile adventure. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:43 | |
We're only halfway through the flight. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
We're getting to watch a film now, so see you later. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Toronto. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
They've arrived in Canada's biggest city, Toronto, | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
to compete in the World Junior Championships. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
This bit. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
The flight was eight hours. It was really long. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
All the team's excited to be here and there so much energy | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
and we've started, like, vlogging. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
-I feel like Fiona's the... -Camera woman. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
I might roll in commentary, add a few bits here and there, | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
a bit of info. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:25 | |
We've been in the room five seconds | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
and we've already lost both of our keys. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
It's a good start. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:30 | |
-I'm the team masseuse. -No, you're not. -I'm not. That's a lie. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:37 | |
This may be an amazing experience, | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
but it's also proving to be a nerve-racking one. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
Can you believe it's the comp tomorrow? | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
It's worlds, like, it can't get any bigger. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
Before I get on, that's when I'll be most nervous. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
Because you have, like, loads of eyes watching you skate. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
If you mess up, then you'll feel like you've let the team down. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
Well, this is my, like, first time away from home. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:04 | |
It's really nice, because it's just kind of like being with your family. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
We've got our Great Britain jackets. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
We're representing our country. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
So we have to make sure that we skate our best. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
I think that adds an extra bit of pressure. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
But the more experienced Icicles know how to keep everyone relaxed. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:22 | |
Let me just fix that. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:26 | |
-You look amazing. -You're doing it for me. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:31 | |
For some of them, Canada will mark the end of an era. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
This is going to be my last World Championship because I'm going | 0:03:34 | 0:03:38 | |
off to Uni next year, and it's not just me, | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
there might be a few older ones also going their separate ways. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
So that really means that we all want to perform to our best. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
I think a lot of people want to make it, like, special and end on a high. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:51 | |
When we perform, we'll be performing to a full crowd | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
and we're going to go out with a bang. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:55 | |
But before any skating gets underway, the girls have a secret | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
scheme planned for their beloved coach, Esther, at | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
-tonight's dinner. -Do you think she's going to be surprised? | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
-Do you think she knows? -I think she'll love it. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
-Going to come out and throw them all over the place. -Yeah. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
And all the other teams can look at us like we're crazy, | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
-but we know what's going on. -Yeah! | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
We're throwing Esther a wedding party, because she's getting married | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
in a few months. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
We've got her a cake and, of course, a tiara, because she is a princess. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
We just want to celebrate her wedding. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
OK, I'll go out and make sure she's not there before you. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
Go, go, go. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
Esther has no idea of the surprise, | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
and with all the other teams also arriving for dinner, | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
the girls have to be sneaky to avoid detection. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:45 | |
You need to check out the lobby for us. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:50 | |
Stop. Go, go, go, go, go. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
She's going to love that. Imagine if that the cake fell on the floor. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
Guys, it would not be my fault. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:12 | |
I love this, it's like secret spies. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:14 | |
-Esther! -Esther! | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
Thanks for my cake. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:22 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:05:26 | 0:05:30 | |
A beautiful cake they've organised for me today. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
Very thoughtful, I'm very grateful. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:44 | |
Would anybody like some cake? | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
Come to my wedding. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
She was really cringed out at the start, but she just went with it | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
and I think she's had quite a good time with it. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:55 | |
She looked really happy, and the cake was so amazing. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 | |
Just got a fork and digged in, and we invited all of the other teams as well, | 0:05:58 | 0:06:02 | |
so that was really nice. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
Esther's going to be a beautiful bride. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
A little bit embarrassing, but hey-ho! | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
And hopefully, it's relieved a little bit of stress | 0:06:09 | 0:06:12 | |
before the competition starts tomorrow. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:14 | |
Back in Nottingham, there's only a week until the biggest event | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
in the rink's calendar. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:24 | |
Those arms, they cannot come loose. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
The annual gala. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:29 | |
Hundreds of skaters will take to the ice to wow the crowd, | 0:06:29 | 0:06:33 | |
so every detail has to be perfect. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:36 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:39 | |
Kick up, kick up. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
And overseeing everyone is coach, Tamara. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:45 | |
Line, line, line, line. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:47 | |
Yeah, starting with the right, starting with the left. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:49 | |
We've decided for all the routines to be based on famous Hollywood | 0:06:49 | 0:06:54 | |
movies and for our skaters to represent different characters. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:58 | |
Now come to the line quicker. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:00 | |
We can go for animals, then we have animated characters. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:08 | |
You know, sci-fi themes. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
Come on boys, bigger. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:13 | |
At the moment, oh gosh, totally not ready. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:20 | |
This is exactly our problem. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:21 | |
You've got to get there faster. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
It's loads of work for the coaches. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
Split and you go there. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
But that's nothing. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
The figure skaters have both a solo and a group number to prepare for. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:42 | |
And not only that, it's come at the worst time. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
We've got competitions coming up, like, just around the corner, | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
and just, like, we're in full training mode, | 0:07:49 | 0:07:51 | |
but at the same time, we know that | 0:07:51 | 0:07:52 | |
the gala is a really important thing and we want to look our best. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
Normally we'd practise them for months before we even showed people. | 0:07:57 | 0:08:01 | |
So yeah, it's just really hectic. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:02 | |
And now strong. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:06 | |
I think it's fair to say that I'm really unready, so unready. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
I haven't even finished my solo. We have just a few days left. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
I forgot. So many places. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
The group as well, I don't think I know it as well as the others, but | 0:08:24 | 0:08:29 | |
I just have to kind of work with it. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
Last year, ice dancers Josh and Ellie didn't perform together | 0:08:35 | 0:08:39 | |
at the Gala because Ellie took some time away from skating. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
With the Jellie duo on a break, | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
Josh took to the ice with Lauren in her place. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
-Hi. -Hi. -Do you know what Sophie wants to talk about? | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
No, do you? | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
No, I don't know. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:57 | |
Now that Jellie have started training together again, | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
their coach, Sophie, has something important to discuss. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:04 | |
-Hello. -Hi. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
-You all right, Josh? -Yeah, thanks. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:09 | |
Are you enjoying being back on the ice, Ellie? | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
Yeah, it feels really good. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
When you stopped skating, it was just before the gala | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
so was it a bit weird not having been a part of that? | 0:09:19 | 0:09:23 | |
I felt like I missed out while everyone was doing the gala. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:27 | |
I missed it a lot. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:28 | |
Basically I wanted to ask you whether you would like to take part | 0:09:28 | 0:09:32 | |
in it this year. We'd love to have you in it, | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
so it would be within a dance group number. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:37 | |
So, what do you think? Would you like to do it? | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
-Do want to do it? -Yeah! -Yeah. -Excellent. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:43 | |
So, we've only got a short period of time till we perform. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:47 | |
It's going to be a challenge, but are you up for it? | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
-Yeah. -That's what I like to hear. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
-We're really excited, aren't we? -Yeah, I'm excited. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:57 | |
-I'll try not to drop you, but I can't promise anything. -Thanks. | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
You're welcome. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
On the other side of the planet, | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
the Junior World Synchro Championships have begun. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
Canada is an ice skating crazy nation, | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
and the crowds are already going wild. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
After their mammoth journey to get here, | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
the Icicles have to shake it off and get in the zone. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:30 | |
We are absolutely shattered from an eight-hour flight, | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
but it's an amazing rink. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:34 | |
-So big. -It's beautiful. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
It's very surreal, because for a few of us, this is our first worlds, | 0:10:38 | 0:10:42 | |
but then for everyone, it's Canada, so it's just amazing. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:46 | |
I never thought I would be here. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:48 | |
I've seen some teams before through the internet, | 0:10:48 | 0:10:52 | |
but it's different seeing them live. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
Ready, girls? Feet together. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
Feet together. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:57 | |
You work all season for the World Championships to get there. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:02 | |
The girls have worked really hard, now they just need to perform. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:07 | |
They'll be skating two routines at the competition with their short | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
programme up first. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:14 | |
You don't realise how good you are. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:15 | |
Like you're a good team, you skate well. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:18 | |
You've got to get that extra bit more. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:20 | |
But it's going to be who brings it the most on the day, isn't it? | 0:11:20 | 0:11:22 | |
But with 19 teams from the world's top skating nations battling it out, | 0:11:24 | 0:11:29 | |
the Icicles are the underdogs. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
The girls know that they're not going to be top three on the podium, | 0:11:31 | 0:11:35 | |
that it's about performing to their best ability | 0:11:35 | 0:11:37 | |
and getting the scores at the best they can do. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
I want you to go on the ice and I want you to bomb round, | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
finish everything off. OK? Let's go. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
Five, six, seven, eight. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
With the prospect of facing a huge crowd and a wall of judges, | 0:11:48 | 0:11:53 | |
it's unsurprising that the girls skating in their first-ever worlds | 0:11:53 | 0:11:56 | |
are feeling the heat. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:57 | |
I think I'll be nervous when I step on because it's going | 0:11:57 | 0:12:00 | |
-to be a full arena. -It's very different for the girls, | 0:12:00 | 0:12:02 | |
there's no glass in the barriers, so the audience are a lot closer. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |
We saw how many people were there. It became very real at that point. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:11 | |
This is it. This is what it's all built up to. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
I want you to be out of breath when you get off the ice. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
This is three minutes, OK? | 0:12:20 | 0:12:21 | |
But remember, you have to concentrate where your feet | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
placement go because that's when falls happen. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
You are a team, OK? And you perform as a team but regardless, | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
you've represented your country in Canada and that's already something | 0:12:30 | 0:12:34 | |
you should be amazingly proud of. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:36 | |
-ALL: -Icicles! | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
When you walk out of the changing room, you're thinking, | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
this is what being in synchro has been all about. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
We were so in the zone, heads down, getting ready to go on the ice. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:55 | |
And you hear the crowd. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:56 | |
It was one of the scariest things I've ever experienced. | 0:12:56 | 0:12:59 | |
Enjoy it, girls. Just have fun, OK, out there. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:03 | |
Go girls, fast. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:04 | |
-ANNOUNCER: -Team Great Britain. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
As soon as that music comes on, you take your big deep breath, | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
you can't do anything more. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:26 | |
# Let's call it a day, babe | 0:13:28 | 0:13:30 | |
# I think I know what you're trying to say | 0:13:30 | 0:13:35 | |
# Honey, it's fair play | 0:13:35 | 0:13:38 | |
# We don't have to spell it | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
# I think I know what you're trying to say... # | 0:13:45 | 0:13:49 | |
We started the programme and then bit by bit, | 0:13:51 | 0:13:53 | |
I think people started to get too nervous or tried too hard. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:57 | |
I sort of felt that something wasn't right. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:03 | |
As we were going into the moves, you could tell that our line | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
was maybe quite nervous. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
-AUDIENCE: -Oh! | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
As we went under the leg, me and Eve fell. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:19 | |
I was just thinking that I need to get back up, get back in, | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
make sure I fight it with everything I have left in me. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:28 | |
We ended up falling in the worst positions. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:30 | |
If you fall over here and the line's over here, | 0:14:30 | 0:14:32 | |
you've never got a chance of getting back on. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
So they did an amazing job for no-one else to fall over. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:36 | |
# Do what you have to | 0:14:36 | 0:14:39 | |
# What a shame | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
# What a loss | 0:14:41 | 0:14:42 | |
# The winner takes | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
# She takes it all... # | 0:14:44 | 0:14:45 | |
Through the programme, the team may not be talking to you, | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
but they're still supporting you in a way, like, in the holds, | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
just pinching you to say, "We can do it." | 0:14:51 | 0:14:54 | |
# What a defeat | 0:14:54 | 0:14:55 | |
# To say the least | 0:14:55 | 0:14:57 | |
# But thank God | 0:14:57 | 0:14:59 | |
# The love is free | 0:14:59 | 0:15:01 | |
# And maybe it's good for you | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
# It's good for me. # | 0:15:06 | 0:15:07 | |
It's happened now. Accidents happen. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
It was very difficult, | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
almost impossible to hide your emotions in those moments. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
Because you've been training for this your whole life. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
Girls, you need to pull your shoulders back. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
And you have to stand there and smile as best as you can, | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
which is so hard, because you just want to go, | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
you want to go back to your hotel, cry. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
-ANNOUNCER: -The score. 42.5. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
It's a devastating score. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
Off you get. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:51 | |
While the competition has to go on, bruised and battered, | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
the girls cannot bear to stay and watch. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
They head back to the hotel with their dreams in tatters. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
As most of Nottingham heads home for a relaxing evening, | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
over at the rink, it's gone crazy. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:21 | |
Girls, can the rest of you that are ready | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
go and get where you need to be? | 0:16:26 | 0:16:27 | |
It's the last chance to get things right for the movie themed gala. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:32 | |
We're trying to co-ordinate everything. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:34 | |
But nobody ever said show business was easy. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:38 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:40 | |
Hello. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:42 | |
Nothing. One, two. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
Nick, do you want to go on the ice? | 0:16:45 | 0:16:46 | |
-I haven't got a mic. -Huh? -I haven't got a mic. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
-OK... -The kids are there, they're ready. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
But I can get them. I'm having a mare. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
All right, you need to be in your opening position. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:03 | |
Who's this side? Quick. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
So we don't really know what's going on, but fake it till you make it. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
Number one rule. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:12 | |
The next time we'll do it like this, is going to be on the day. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
I don't know my routine. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:16 | |
I don't know the group routine, I don't know this ice dance bit, so... | 0:17:16 | 0:17:20 | |
Where are the kids? | 0:17:23 | 0:17:24 | |
I don't know what you were looking at. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
So that box is at the wrong gate. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
We expected the mess, and we are in the middle of the mess. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:34 | |
The shark costume and the shark have disappeared. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
Bobby! | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
While the other skaters try to get to grips with their routines, | 0:17:39 | 0:17:43 | |
Jellie's whole performance is in jeopardy. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
The other day when I was doing my skating, | 0:17:46 | 0:17:48 | |
I fell over and I sprained my wrist, and sprained my thumb. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:52 | |
I can't do lifts at the minute. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
And if Josh can't lift Ellie, | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
there'll be no highlight to their routine. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:59 | |
Do you know what you've done? | 0:17:59 | 0:18:00 | |
We had to have an X-ray, | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
because they said it could be broke but I've sprained it. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:06 | |
You can't really lift with one hand, can you? | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
Probably not. In a lift, it hurts quite a bit. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:12 | |
It would be annoying if I couldn't do the gala because | 0:18:12 | 0:18:15 | |
me and Ellie have only just got back together, | 0:18:15 | 0:18:18 | |
so we want to show everybody we can skate well again. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:21 | |
The worst-case scenario is him not being able to do, like, | 0:18:21 | 0:18:25 | |
any of the lifts. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:26 | |
I'm just going to rest my wrist until the gala, | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
so I don't do any more damage to it. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
As doubts loom over Jellie's chances for the show, | 0:18:34 | 0:18:38 | |
it's not going any smoother for those on the ice. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
To create their movie character look, Josh, Kloe | 0:18:44 | 0:18:47 | |
and Becky have costumes definitely not made to skate in. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:50 | |
Was the costumes OK? | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
-No. -No? -They're so uncomfortable. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:58 | |
OK, we're going to need some last-minute adjustments, guys. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |
We're going to need to rehearse in them again, aren't we? | 0:19:01 | 0:19:03 | |
Because they just felt so uncomfortable. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
Nothing's been designed specifically for us. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
We've kind of just had to make the best of what we've got. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:10 | |
And like, Kloe's costume doesn't fit and none of the material | 0:19:10 | 0:19:13 | |
-feels great. -They're normal like going out dresses, | 0:19:13 | 0:19:15 | |
so it's really hard to skate in and because of that, | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
obviously when we move around, it's really hard to control it. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
We've just got to put up with it | 0:19:23 | 0:19:25 | |
for the three minutes that we're on the ice. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
It's going to be really hard work between now and the gala. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:31 | |
Are we doing it again? | 0:19:31 | 0:19:33 | |
I have to hope for the best, you know. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:35 | |
Now we're starting with this music. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:38 | |
After their devastating first skate, | 0:19:44 | 0:19:47 | |
the Icicles are still feeling the scars from yesterday's performance. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:51 | |
As a team, when we first got off the ice, we were all really upset, | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
but that's what happens sometimes and you just have to get through it. | 0:19:56 | 0:20:01 | |
I definitely think that the nerves have hit the younger ones, | 0:20:01 | 0:20:04 | |
but we're all sticking together and I've been talking to them. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
Bonjour. I think I look glow-y enough, do you? | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
Today's a new day. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:20 | |
Everyone's so much more enthusiastic and so much more positive about it. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:24 | |
And it's just as well, because the girls now face returning | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
to the rink to perform again. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
But now we've got our Bollywood programme and we've literally got to | 0:20:29 | 0:20:33 | |
bring it as much as possible. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:34 | |
-We've got 32 minutes to do six headpieces. -Oh, stop. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:38 | |
I don't even want to think about it. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
We're just going to show the crowds that we're better | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
than what we skated yesterday. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
Their low first score means it's no longer about their final placing. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:54 | |
Now, it's all about team pride. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
Going back to the rink was like going back to the scene of a crime. | 0:20:57 | 0:21:01 | |
I think everyone was focusing on individually what they needed to do. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:06 | |
I just wanted to forget the day before. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
Everybody falls at some point. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:11 | |
You just want to get it out of your head so that it doesn't affect | 0:21:11 | 0:21:14 | |
the other programme. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:16 | |
# Boom, crack, sound of my heart... # | 0:21:16 | 0:21:19 | |
They won't be the first team or skater that this happens to. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:22 | |
And it definitely won't be the last, | 0:21:22 | 0:21:24 | |
but they pulled together as a team, they are one. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
Today's a new day, it's about getting out a clean programme | 0:21:27 | 0:21:30 | |
and performing and feeling good about themselves. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
The team smashed their Bollywood routine at the | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
British Championships, but with their nerves sky-high, | 0:21:36 | 0:21:40 | |
will they be able to do it again? | 0:21:40 | 0:21:42 | |
The younger ones are very nervous and they're representing | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
their country. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:48 | |
It's how they handle those nerves is what's most important. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
So I just hope that they can relax rather than stress and panic. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:54 | |
Everyone, I want everyone on their feet now. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
Pat your legs, get them moving. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:58 | |
Wake those knees up. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:00 | |
And for leavers like Amy and Alex, | 0:22:00 | 0:22:02 | |
this performance will be their last competition memory. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:06 | |
Because it was my last skate competing, | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
I really wanted it to go well. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
For my final skate to be something I'm proud to remember. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:13 | |
-Let's hold hands. -We're asking for an amazing skate, | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
that would make our current time at Canada the best ever. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:23 | |
-Please make that come true. Amen. -All right. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
Amy, let's go. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
As if the girls didn't have enough to think about already, | 0:22:28 | 0:22:30 | |
they've drawn the dreaded place of skating first. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING | 0:22:34 | 0:22:38 | |
Go girls, enjoy it. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:41 | |
When I was in the huddle, the key is to tell them to breathe, | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
you can do this. We need to show how good we can skate. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:51 | |
-ANNOUNCER: -Team Great Britain. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:53 | |

About halfway in, I think we all actually knew that we could do it. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:40 | |
We were pushing as hard as we could. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:41 | |
I just remember looking around at all of the team | 0:23:47 | 0:23:49 | |
and even the audience, everyone in there was just smiling. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:53 | |
Clapping along. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:54 | |
And I saw somebody, like, dancing to it, so I was like, "Whoo!" | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
Keep going! | 0:23:59 | 0:24:00 | |

Literally, just took the biggest deep breath | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
and I was like, "We did it." | 0:24:33 | 0:24:34 | |
-Yeah. -We did it. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:35 | |
We had an amazing skate. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:39 | |
Everyone was a bit nervous because of yesterday, | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
but they really brought it out today. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:43 | |
-What team? -ALL: -Icicles. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:44 | |
We all skated our hearts out. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:47 | |
We wanted to have a clean skate, we wanted to do really well and we did. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:52 | |
We all pulled together and worked together and that's what being a | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
team's all about. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:57 | |
-ANNOUNCER: -The programme score. 54.3. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:02 | |
We really bonded together, it's really brought us | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
together as a team. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:06 | |
I don't think this will be my last junior worlds. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:09 | |
It's deffo not my last junior worlds. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:11 | |
I'll be back next year, wherever it is. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:14 | |
The girls can leave this competition with their heads held high because | 0:25:14 | 0:25:18 | |
they came back with a much better performance | 0:25:18 | 0:25:21 | |
and something that they can be proud of. | 0:25:21 | 0:25:23 | |
Canada was definitely the best. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:27 | |
It was amazing that something like skating can take you | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
all over the world. | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
Before the long flight home, | 0:25:34 | 0:25:35 | |
there's one more thing the Icicles have left to do. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:38 | |
I got it! I got an icicle. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:43 | |
It's a natural wonder of the world, Niagara Falls. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:48 | |
It's beautiful. There's so much water. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
We need to get the background. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:56 | |
Ready, steady. Go! | 0:25:58 | 0:26:01 | |
This is such a nice way to end the trip. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
Shoulders back. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
As Amy and Alex's final Icicle adventure draws to a close, | 0:26:15 | 0:26:19 | |
it's clear how big a part synchro has been in their lives. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:23 | |
When I was younger, I just did it because I found it fun. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:26 | |
Oh, my goodness, how cold is it? | 0:26:26 | 0:26:28 | |
Cheese. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
OK, that's one. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
When I first started, | 0:26:32 | 0:26:33 | |
I never thought I'd ever come to Niagara Falls, | 0:26:33 | 0:26:36 | |
and I'm really grateful for it. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:38 | |
Just because I'm moving away doesn't mean that the friendship stops here, | 0:26:38 | 0:26:42 | |
because the friendships I've made here are lifelong. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:45 | |
-Steady, steady. -One, two, three. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:47 | |
-It's a rainbow. -I got it. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
Oh, my gosh! I love it. | 0:26:57 | 0:26:59 | |
This has been the best adventure I've ever been on with synchro and | 0:26:59 | 0:27:02 | |
I'd just love to do more things like this. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
-Boo! -Not even funny! | 0:27:06 | 0:27:09 | |
Next time, it's the end of the season for our Ice Stars | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
and gala day. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:21 | |
Even with Josh's sprain, | 0:27:24 | 0:27:25 | |
Jellie are determined to make their comeback. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:28 | |
I need the toilet. I need to go to the toilet. | 0:27:28 | 0:27:32 | |
It's an emotional night for the Icicles as the team skate together | 0:27:32 | 0:27:36 | |
for the very last time. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
We've come such a long way together, | 0:27:38 | 0:27:40 | |
and I hope that we'll all stay in touch. | 0:27:40 | 0:27:42 | |
And Kloe tries falling in love with skating all over again. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:49 | |
I just have to go out and enjoy myself. | 0:27:49 | 0:27:51 |
