    Just watched a repeat of the game on the red button. Great performance from the boys and I think Bobby Lammie should be an early contender for sports personality - that boy is pure magic with the broom.

    Let's hope the women repeat the feat in the early hours :)

    Somehow whenever the Winter Olympics is on I always end up watching the Curling!
    I'm currently off work having tested positive for Covid (no symptoms) and I'm contemplating getting up in the morning to watch Eve Muirhead's team action live.

    Eve Muirhead and the ladies' semi-final is on at 12 noon today. It was wrongly reported on the BBC website

    Setting the alarm tomorrow though, loved the way we were all calm and collected and the Americans overly cocky!

    Great end by Eve in the 9th - keep it tight in the 10th and they're in the final :)

    Great last stone but they all played their part getting the stones in the house.

    I’ve got covid and isolating so this on the tv is a very welcome distraction.

    Here are all the details you need to know ahead of the final:

    When is the men’s curling final at the Beijing Winter Olympics?

    The final will begin at the National Aquatics Centre in Beijing, China, at 6:05am UK time on Saturday 19 February.

    How can I watch the men’s curling final?

    The final will be broadcast live on BBC Two in the UK, with coverage beginning at 6am.

    I'm setting my alarm for 6.

    According to Eurosport it has been pushed back by 45 minutes “ to allow maximum exposure”.

    Anyway, we’d best stay up all night to be sure
