Commentator ALAN WEEKS Men's Luge
Live coverage from the Olympic Park of the final two runs of the men's individual competition. The sport has been likened to 'sliding off a snowy roof on a tin tray', and the lugers, in their shiny racing suits, can reach speeds of more than 70mph. STEPHEN BRIALEY is likely to carry British hopes, in an event dominated since its
Olympic debut in 1964 by the East Germans.

GERALD SINSTADT on the men's 30km cross-country at Canmore Nordic Centre, and highlights of the first of the speed-skating events to be decided - the men's 500m - with commentary by RON PICKERING.
