If you have a VPN you can watch it on BBC. I've mainly watched the figure skating/ice dance & Robin cousins is a brilliant commentator - he knows when to say nothing!

Nice to see Britain with 2 golds, particularly the snowboard.
I'm glad the Olympics have evolved to include snowboards, particularly because they attract younger people and they're fun to watch.

Yes, Robin Cousins is excellent. As is Clare Balding ably assisted by a charming Lizzy Varnold.

The two UK gold medal winners Matt Weston and Tabby Stoeker have a super relationship between themselves but also with the two German silver and bronze winners.

The two commentators for the snow board events are full of wit and fun.

How pleasant to see something other than the constant bad news from around of the world.

And in Rugby le Coq Sportiv is cockadoodling at high volume.

Watched Kirsty Muir tonight and her 3rd jump was a disaster. I wasn't surprised after seeing her and her coach at the top of the ski slope. He looked about as inspirational as a wet weekend in Aberdeen and it seemed to transmit to her. I commented before she went "4th place again".
