  Ice rave behind the scenes in Sochi

  

  Enjoying the atmospherics of tonight's highlights show. There is a rave behind us and two blokes carving an ice car.

  Seven gold medals will be won on Monday, though no Britons are expected to contest for medals. Among the highlights will be the chaotic dash to the finish in the men's snowboard cross.

  Curling

  What happens if Norway and Britain secure victories on Monday? Oh boy. Wins for both Norway and Britain would give them the same record as China (which is six wins and three losses). In this instance, the head-to-head record will be used, but China, Norway and Britain would have an identical record, meaning the Draw Score Challenge (DSC) average would come into play. We'll discuss the intricacies of the DCS if and when we need to. Sunday is for watching repeats of Last of the Summer Wine and Heartbeat, not discussions on the Draw Score Challenge.

  On lucky volunteer gets a photo I'm sure they'll treasure for life with Jamaican bobsleigh duo Winston Watts (left) and Marvin Dixon (right). The pair say it is important for them and their nation that they improve on 30th and last position in tomorrow's final run.

  Curling

  Britain's male curlers take on China at 1006 GMT on Monday and even a win will not make it certain that David Murdoch's men reach the semi-finals. The Brits need to outdo Norway, who play Denmark, to qualify outright, and a play-off on Tuesday could be required to decide the remaining semi-final places. If none of that makes sense, click here for all the qualification scenarios. We think.

  Eve likes to play the offensive game. She has decided she is ready and will go firing from the first end. Russia were very tentative this morning - but if Eve has the hammer she will go right at it from the word go.

  The round-robin match against Russia is the first of two crucial games for Britain's women. If they beat the Russians and Denmark on Monday are guaranteed a spot in the semi-finals.
