So there is considerable speculation that in this year's World Championship event she could lose her title to DOROTHY HAMILL , the brilliant American free skater. Commentator ALAN WEEKS

1850-1918
The first of three Omnibus films about the transatlantic take-over of our popular song and dance.
From nowhere but the United States could such have sprung. It is the music of the hustler and the feverishly active speculator, brimming with life.
That was how The Times described the American ' ragtime ' that was sweeping through Britain in 1913. This ragtime was the latest in a long series of sensations from the USA. We had already been beguiled by the plantation melodies of the Minstrels, bowled over by the city songs of New York's Tin Pan Alley, galvanised by such dances as the cake-walk and the turkey trot.
After ragtime came the foxtrot and something called ' the blues.' By the end of World War I, ' jazz ' was on the horizon and, in the words of Noel Coward , ' the American victory was a fait accompli.'
How did they do it? And why did we fall so easily? Narrator Ian Holm
