Oxi: Джон Керр написал в дневнике на своём сайте: << 1 April >> 2008 Hi everyone, It has definitely been too long since our last diary entry but I was encouraged not to write anything up to, and including, World's in case I wrote something a little controversial. I cannot imagine what they mean! ;-) Anyway, World's was a fantastic experience and the atmosphere created by fans from all over the world made it, in our opinion, the best World's we have ever been involved in. It is really hard to find the words to describe how it felt the way people got behind us especially in the Original Dance. They were making so much noise towards the end of our Scottish dance that it felt that they were lifting us up and carrying us towards the end of the routine. When the crowd is really vociferous like that it actually gives you energy and an unbelievable high as well. In the Free Dance the crowd was equally enthusiastic and it was amazing to see all these Union Jacks and St Andrew's flags appear when we first stepped onto the ice. The performance itself went much better than at European's and we really felt we conveyed the idea of the routine much better than before. The big thing for us coming into this event was to crack the top 10 because after, unfortunately, finishing 11th the last 2 years we really needed to establish ourselves inside that top 10. The competition actually played out the way we thought it might with us in a tussle with Pechalat/Bourzat and Davis/White for the 6th, 7th, and 8th positions. These are 2 excellent teams and I think we all skated to near our maximum so to finish 8th for us was a good result. To conclude it was great to see Delobel/Shoenfelder finally get the reward they deserved after years of misfortune. I think they will feel a World Title is ample compensation. Holiday Time Since World's, Sinead and I have been taking some much needed time-out after such a hectic last 6 months. I have been in the Bahamas with my girlfriend while Sinead headed down to London for some retail therapy. If we get the chance we will try and put up some holiday snaps. New Beginnings So the off-season will start for us in a week or so and we, like everyone else, will have to come up with 2 completely new routines. As well as that we have a completely new compulsory to learn. We are really looking forward to the challenge and we hope that we continue to entertain and engage skating fans from all over the World. A few medals would be nice too though ;-) Thanks again for visiting the website and we hope you enjoy all it has to offer. See you all next season, Sinead & John Насколько я поняла, не зная английского, Джон очень доволен Чемпионатом мира, говорит, что это лучший чемпионат в его жизни. Очень сильно помогала реакция трибун, это придавало заряд энергии, и очень помогало классно откатать все программы. Джон уже съездил с подружкой на Багамы, а Шинед в это время проходила курс терапии в Лондоне. Говорит, что уже рвётся в бой, что со следующей недели начинают придумывать новые программы.
Oxi: The ICE is right for duo http://edinburghnews.scotsman.com/features/The-ICE--is-right.3951817.jp By SANDRA DICK THINK of skating and ice dance and the first names that pop into most heads would be those of Torvill and Dean. They glided over the ice in their sparkling purple outfits, famously snapping up a gold medal in the 1984 Olympics to the pulsing rhythm of BolЁ¦ro. Or perhaps it brings to mind the over-excited celebrities of Dancing on Ice ЁC Suzanne Shaw, Gareth Gates and, unavoidably, Holly Willoughby's low cut frocks. And what about the names John and Sinead Kerr? Unless you happen to be American, Japanese or an ice dance die-hard, the chances are they aren't going to feature highly on your list of sporting legends. After all, the brother and sister team come from a town, Livingston, that doesn't even boast an ice rink ЁC how could they possibly be the country's most successful ice dancers of their generation? John, now without the startling silver hair dye he had for the World Championships last month, flashes a perfect smile. In a transatlantic accent courtesy of his new home in New Jersey, he agrees. "We have fans all over the world. For some reason they seem to love us in Japan and probably because we are based in the States now, there's lot of interest there too. But here? Well, we're pretty much left to get on with things." He's being rather polite. The siblings' mum, Maeve, 56, however, is more succinct. "I can't understand it, they've done incredibly well, yet there doesn't seem to be that much interest in them here. They should be modelling, giving talks to schools, encouraging children into sport ЁC but they're never asked. "I remember the local gala day when the gala queen's mother was doing the crowning ceremony and John and Sinead were at home in the garden sunbathing ЁC no-one thought to ask if they might do it. Yet the other week we were going to the World Championships and there were Japanese fans in kilts waving Saltires. "It's a shame, because they would love to do more in Scotland." That said, you've got to get your skates on if you want to catch the pair on a flying visit home to their parents' house in Kirkfield West, Livingston. Life for the past two years for 29-year-old Sinead and her brother John, 27, has revolved around New Jersey where they live, eat and breathe ice dance with their two-times Olympic Ice Dance champion coach, Evgeni Platov. Under his direction, the pair have just accomplished their most successful season ever: finishing eighth in the World Championships in Sweden a fortnight ago came hot on the heels of personal best marks 'People want entertainment, and we like to entertain' and fifth place in the European Championships, and fourth place in a Grand Prix event in Sendai, Japan, in December. This run has sealed their international reputation and gained them a new raft of fans. All of which is setting them up nicely for two years' hence, when the Livingston pair will fly the British flag in the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, hoping to improve on their showing in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, when they came tenth. "I think people want to be entertained and we like to be entertainers," says Sinead, explaining the pair's unique relationship with fans around the world. "We like to do things that are a bit more innovative and creative ЁC and the crowd do like that." Her face, usually plastered with make up for a performance ЁC once so much so that it actually, rather bizarrely, cost the pair points ЁC today is bare, revealing Sinead to be strikingly and naturally pretty at the same time as shedding years from her rink persona. The sequins and revealing dance outfits are replaced by a simple T-shirt, jeans, sweatshirt. "I suppose it's nice to be dressed up ЁC yes, it's every little girl's dream ЁC but honestly, I keep saying that come my wedding day there'll be nothing special for me because I'm so used to dressing up in sequins," she laughs. Sinead remembers being around seven when, hooked by the roller skating craze that swept Livingston in the mid-80s, she joined a club at Deans High School. A chance family day out ice skating, however, was pivotal ЁC soon the wheels had been swapped for shiny blades and hours spent at Murrayfield perfecting her spins. Her solo ice skating training came to an abrupt and frightening halt, however, when, aged nine she was struck down with potentially fatal meningitis. While her parents, Maeve, a nurse, and Alastair, 52, a doctor, braced themselves, Sinead displayed the kind of physical strength that would eventually power her across a 60m by 30m Olympic standard ice rink to achieve breathtaking lifts, leaps and spins and place her among the best skaters in the world. Within nine months she had recovered, and was soon joined by her younger brother on the ice. John, however, had his own challenges to face. "I was called every name you can think of," he recalls. "The kids at school would say 'Oh you must be a poof', skating for boys was just culturally unacceptable in this country." With his Hollywood smile, flowing hair and lean build, John may look like he'd blow away in a stiff breeze, but nothing could be further from the truth. He's all man, with a girlfriend to prove it. "And this is a very physically demanding sport," he adds. So, what of the future? Sinead says: "If I had to give it up tomorrow I wouldn't mind, because I can look back on the Olympics and getting into the world top ten which has been amazing." "I would like to think we can come back home and do something to help skating in Scotland and Britain as a whole," she adds, while John nods in agreement. "It would be nice to put our knowledge and the skills we have learned to use here for the next generation."

В общем, сезоном довольны, не довольны безразличным отношением к ним на родине. Говорят, что в Японии и то больше у них поклонников, и фан-клуб. О детстве немного написано, как я поняла, в возрасте 9 лет Шинед очень сильно болела минингитом, 9 месяцев. Родители у них медики, врач и медсестра. В будущем хотят быть тренерами.
Paola: Oxi, спасибо за новости о Шинед и Джоне Пусть и на английском, но в общем, всё понятно . Жаль, что на родине у них мало поклонников Неужели у старушки Англии такой колоссальный выбор отличных фигуристов, что к собственным чемпионам можно относиться безразлично ? Интересно, а тренировать они тоже буду вместе ...
Oxi: Paola пишет: Неужели у старушки Англии такой колоссальный выбор отличных фигуристов, что к собственным чемпионам можно относиться безразлично Дело в том, что во-первых, в Англии на первом месте футбол, а во-вторых, или наоборот, во-первых, причина такого отношения не только к ним, а ко всем фигуристам, которые тренируются за границей, на это также жаловался Казинс (забыла который, Робин или Стивен), к -рый тоже тренировался в Америке, раньше я приносила интервью, где об этом говорилось. Но тем не менее, им платят стипендию, поддерживают.
