Slam it to the left if you're having a good time!

Figure skating medal hopefuls Lewis Gibson and Lilah Fear talk to Max Balegde about their journey into the sport and their dazzling rhythm dance routine to a Spice Girls medley.

Watch to find out what special surprise Max has in store for the ice dance duo.

Norwegian skiier Jarl Magnus Riiber held a commanding 44-second lead on the chasing pack as he cruised to the finish line in the combined individual 10km biathlon at Beijing 2022.

That is, before he realised that he'd opted for a pre-mature exit, was forced to turn around and start one final lap - a mistake that cost him a medal.

The biggest cheer of the night so far is reserved for Ukraine.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine occurred on the eve of the 2022 Winter Olympics. Four years on, their athletes are being made to feel very welcome.

While Bruce Mouat won team silver in Beijing, he and mixed doubles partner Jen Dodds painfully finished fourth in 2022.

Having started their campaign earlier in the week, the Scottish duo are top of the standings for Team GB as the only unbeaten team and are within touching distance of the semi-finals.

Dodds and Mouat spoke to BBC Sport candidly about their partnership and their experiences at the 2022 Beijing Games.

For those that are interested in style and the fashion of the athletes in tonight's parade...

Bruce Mouat will bid for a curling medal in Cortina after winning team silver in Beijing in 2022.

Since coming out publicly in 2021, Mouat has become a 'role model' for the LGBT+ community.

Watch him speak about his story below, or read his letter to his younger self here.

In a parallel universe, the Sweden team would be entering last rather than amid the Ss.

Stockholm-Are was narrowly beaten by Milan-Cortina in the vote for who should host in 2026.

A great cheer for San Marino, for who this is basically a home games.

The European micronation, whose borders are entirely surrounded by Italy, have one athlete representing them at these games - alpine skier Rafael Mini.

He waves the Sammarinese flag with pride.

When she's not shredding on her snowboard, Team GB's Zoe Atkin studies symbolic systems at Stanford University, an interdisciplinary program which encompasses psychology, linguistics and computer science.

What happens when Atkin uses artificial intelligence to imagine her Milano Cortina 2026 journey, right down to her dream Strictly Come Dancing inspired kit?

My apologies, Andy.

Trust me, in my household we speak of little else.

American snowboarder Lindsey Jacobellis almost won gold at her debut Olympic games in Turin in 2006.

Almost.

As she approached the finish line in first place, she grabbed her board on a jump in celebration - then fell, allowing Swiss Tanja Frieden to seize the top of the podium.

Sixteen years on, Jacobellis had the chance to redeem herself in Beijing, where she lined up in the final of the final of the women's snow board cross.

Watch her achieve her dream at what was her final games.

There are only three members of the Mexican party entering the arena here, but they had the enthusiasm to make up for it.

The flagbearer was pumping that flag back and forward. Great passion, lovely to see.

Team GB's Olympic diver, Tom Daley, did indeed provide unique hand-knitted scarves and winter hats for Team GB. Whether he knitted every single individual piece, I'm not sure...

If you enjoyed the video further down of us putting influencer Chris Hughes in one extremely dangerous situation, then why not have another one?

Just bumped into Team GB after their parade in Livigno.

Home time for them.

There are tonnes of buses lined up outside the venue, ready to whisk them away to somewhere warmer.

Big cheers as Team GB come past looking incredibly dapper.

Here’s a very excited (albeit blurry) Matt Weston. He’ll be reenacting something similar to this if he can win that skeleton gold medal next week.

Some colourful dresswear during the athlete parade...

Czech Republic have had the funkiest outfit, so far. Then you simply can't miss Belgium's athletes, thanks to their bright yellow jacket and trousers.

Finally, not the brightest outfit from Brazil, but they did display some dance moves whilst parading.
