Battle of the Blades
Anyone else watching this? A bit cheesy, I admit, but quite a fun concept. The idea of Probert (6' 3" and notorious enforcer) dancing on ice with Lenko
(5' 2" and an ice dancer) amuses me. And it's for charity.

Re: Battle of the Blades
"Skating around the stars" as I like to call it. (youve noticed the female partners are doing all the fancy work
)
Its cheesy in the best CBC tradition, but its kind of fun. Shame they couldnt find a male figure skater to skate rings around a female hockey player, as it is the format looks a little sexist.

I wonder what will follow? Screamers and Mexican lesbians on ice?

You would prefer what? "Battle of the wandering apostrophe's"?

It they had done it with dwarfs and put a few obstacles in the way, that would've made for a better programme.

Re: Battle of the Blades
No violence (unusual for a Tie Domi appearance)
No swearing
No vulgarity
No one being humiliated in the name of reality TV
For prime time TV here that all comes as a welcome relief to be honest. People are assessed on their actual talent and ability to perform under pressure in front of a crown and the cameras. It could be a lot worse in my opinion.

I thought it a reasonable stab at "Family Entertainment"
