She said that her fall during LP was unexpected as she thinks she can do that element with her eyes closed, but all in all she believes she skated a strong programme and the total impression wasn't spoiled by the fall.

Thanks for the link - very funny interview. The TV host tried quite hard to be "mean", but she answered with wit and humour. I never heard her speak before - in this clip she sounds like a smart and cheeky person.
