In pratica è una serie tv in 6 puntate di 30min l'uno, che andrà in onda a partire dal 2 gennaio 2014, in vista delle Olimpiadi. Verrà girata questa estate.
La docu-serie si incentra sulle loro vite, sulla pressione e l'eccitazione che provano quando ci sono le gare, non solo sul ghiaccio ma anche dietro le quinte.
Parlerà della competizione che c'è nel mondo dell'ice dancing e seguirà "l'irresistibile duo" verso la conquista della seconda medaglia d'oro olimpica.
Arriva la nota dolente: la serie parlerà anche "della loro relazione unica e personale; partner dalle elementari, la loro intima connection sul ghiaccio ha ispirato milioni di fans; l'interesse per la loro amicizia stretta li segue ovunque."
Credo che soffriró
Ma parlerà anche dell'allenamento, del duro lavoro che c'è dietro...
Su un forum leggevo che sono preoccupati, visto che verrà girato questa estate (chissà se la stanno girando già), non li distragga dai loro allenamenti....
Bho.. sta di fatto che sarà interessante
PS: loro sono e saranno sempre "sweethearts" per i giornali
