Day 9, Part 3

Clare Balding presents from Sochi. Penny Coomes and Nick Buckland represent Team GB in the ice dance. Plus the bobsleigh gets under way with the two-man competition.

Clare Balding hosts live coverage of the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. Ice dance is always one of the most watchable of sports, and has provided some great Olympic moments - who can forget Torvill and Dean storming to gold with their Bolero routine 30 years ago in Sarajevo? Penny Coomes and Nick Buckland are representing Team GB in Sochi and will be boosted by their bronze medal in 2014's European Championships. However, the gold medal will probably come down to a showdown between defending champions Tessa Moir and Scott Virtue of Canada and their American training partners Meryl Davis and Charlie White. Davis and White had to settle for silver in 2010 but arrive in Sochi as the world champions.

There is another chance to catch the thrills and spills of the morning's snowboard cross action, and the bobsleigh gets under way up at the Sanki Sliding Centre, with the opening runs of the two-man competition.

16.15 Women's snowboard cross, plus bobsleigh updates
17.15 Live figure skating - ice dance, short dance.
