hi there

Ive been searching around on the net and it would appear that theres a pretty poor range of videos and media available. I would have thought there would be more on enthusiasts websites etc.. ? Can anyone direct me the right way , I am looking for famous olympic pieces like Torvil and Dean, Kwan "Fools of Gold" etc...


kind regards

If you mean downloads,there's fsvids.9.forumer.com.If you mean freelance videotapes/DVDs,search for any forum's 'trade','market' sections.If you mean commercial videos,have you tried Amazon.com?

Hope this helps.

ok thanks. Shame though, that site is bust. Every link you click just refreshes the same page .. including the register link so i cant join up.

The site was closed for registration during the olympics. Olympics are over now.

Things are back to normal there, and I am joyfully downloading Oksana Baiul's 1994 Oly LP, which I somehow have lost.

If you are interested in historic performances, there is the offical Olympic Videos (http://www.olympic.org/uk/utilities/multimedia/gallery/results_uk.asp?entid=77&MediaType=VID&page=1) site. My favorite there is John Curry. Most of the videos are not of complete programs, but that one is. Many of them have documentary voice overlay, which I found very enlightening.
