"France's British-born mogul skier Ben Cavet is getting better each round and put down a strong run in the first stage if the finals. "It felt good," he says, beaming. "It felt in control and slow and the time was just as quick. That's a good thing."

If you are tuning into BBC Two now, you might be wondering how the moguls final works.

The top 10 in qualifying progressed directly to the final. The remaining athletes then went again, with the top 10 progressing.

The scores are reset for the final, which has three phases. The first is under way now, in which the 20 finalists compete in reverse order of their qualifying position.

The top 12 advance to the second phase, in which the six highest-scoring skiers progress to the third and final phase. The medals are only decided by the third phase.

All clear?

France's British-born Ben Cavet is up next, with his run ending with a strong score of 22.97.

The 20-year-old from Crowborough, Sussex, moved to France aged 10 as his father was a ski instructor in Les Gets.

The bearded wonder Per Spett gets the men's moguls under way, finishing with a trademark flamboyant flick at the end.

"Ok, here we go. Nearly moguls o'clock. The course is shining like a fluorescent strip light and the crowd, who have had a couple of hours to wait since the qualification rounds, are ready for some serious action. That, they will get. This is Olympic bumps skiing. But before we begin, a quick verbal tour. We're a 15-minute walk around the hill, going left from that historic slopestyle venue, that corner of a foreign field that will always be Great Britain."

We've got one more medal to hand out today and that's in the men's moguls. The final is split into three parts - more on that in a bit - and starts at 18:00 GMT. You can watch that via the video stream at the top of the page.

"Elise Christie's best distance is not the 500m and she started on the outside, and normally she would panic at that but she kept her cool and won her race quite convincingly, so it's nice to be seeing this new tactic.

"For Charlotte Gilmartin, she is now in the top 16 of the world and that's an amazing feat."

Christie and Gilmartin both advanced from their heatsin the short track speed skating earlier today.

The British men's team have been speaking to BBC Sport after winning one and losing one of their two games today. They defeated Russia 7-4 but then lost to Russia 8-4.

Skip David Murdoch says: "We need to take the positives. It was a good win for us earlier, but we weren't quite as precise as we needed to be tonight."

Michael Goodfellow adds: "Sweden are not the world champions for no reason. We didn't put enough pressure on them and that's why they beat us."

"They are cocky, friendly, not at all dangerous and they are everywhere in Sochi.

"Thousands of stray dogs who were befriended and fed by the migrant workers who built the Olympic Park feed in bins, make friends with skiing superstars and one even made it to the opening ceremony.

"The dogs were an embarrassment and the organisers were going to kill them but one woman - Nadezhda Mayboroda - had a different idea.

"In the hills above Sochi, she set up makeshift shelter and has taken in 140 Olympic strays.

"One of Russia's richest men - multi-billionaire Oleg Deripaska - remembered the stray dog he adopted as a child and decided to put up the cash to fund the shelter. It's a modern day Russian fairytale."

After two runs, Natalie Geisenberger is sitting pretty at the top of the women's singles luge timesheets with a 0.766 second lead over German team-mate Tatjana Huefner. American Erin Hamlin is third.

The medals will be handed out tomorrow, after the times from the final two runs are added to their current totals. But considering Geisenberger's sizeable lead and the fact she's the only woman to go under 50 seconds, it will take a miracle for anyone to stop her winning gold.

Britain's Craig Pickering fears the back injury that prevented him from competing in the bobsleigh at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi may end his career.

The former sprinter, 27, was due to compete in the two-man and four-man events for Great Britain but he withdrew after being hurt during a training run and was later found to have slipped a disc in his lower back.

"Right now, my goal is to come back from this injury to a point where I can live a full life," Pickering told BBC Radio Leicester. "If sport is a part of that, then that's great. If not, that's the way it's meant to be."

Canada's women, going for a fourth consecutive Olympic gold, fail to score in the first two periods but dominate the third to beat Finland 3-0 and secure a quarter-finals bye, regardless of the result in their final group game against the United States.

Over at Medal Plaza in the centre of the Olympic Park, Canadian speed skater Charles Hamelin has just shed a few tears as he picked up his gold medal for this morning's 1500m.

It's been a day of mixed fortunes for the Brits in Sochi 2014.

In the curling, Britain's men beat Russia 7-4 but were then thumped 8-4 by world and European champions Sweden. GB's women lost 6-4 to reigning Olympic and European champions Sweden.

Jack Whelbourne became the first British man to reach an Olympic short track final but required medical treatment after a fall in the medal race.

In the women's events, Elise Christie and Charlotte Gilmartin both progressed to Wednesday's semi-finals of the short track speed skating 500m.

And Chemmy Alcott finished 16th in the women's super combined downhill, using the event as a training run for Wednesday's downhill.

"The important thing was to get the win against Russia and they did that, but it was always going to be difficult for Great Britain against Sweden. There was hope when Britain got it back to 2-2 but Sweden showed why they are one of the toughest teams to beat here.

"It's a long, drawn-out competition and you will have days when it does not go your way. If Britain are to get through then the match against Germany [on Tuesday] is one they should be winning."

It's defeat for Great Britain in the men's curling as David Murdoch's men lose 8-4 to world and European champions Sweden. Earlier in the day, GB beat Russia so it wasn't all bad. In the 10-team competition, each team must play the other nine teams. The top four then progress to the semi-finals.

Norway have been bumped off the top of the medal table by Netherlands, thanks to the continued success of the Dutch in the speed skating events. All seven of their medals have come from the event. Britain are down to 18th in the table with one bronze and will not add to that tally today.
