News in Picture

The Winter Olympics are a week old and the action continues to come thick and fast in Vancouver.

This weekend BBC Sport will bring you the best of the events as Great Britain look to secure their first medal of the Games.

On Friday evening, overnight leader Amy Williams will try to win gold in the skeleton, but faces competition from her team-mate Shelley Rudman.

In Vancouver, John and Sinead Kerr take to the ice for the compulsory dance section (first of three) of the ice dancing event.

The pair were fifth in January's European Championships after securing a bronze in 2009.

On Saturday, American hotshot Lindsey Vonn steps into her bindings for the women's super-G. She's already wrapped up back-to-back titles in the season-long World Cup series. And she's the super-G world champion. And she leads the World Cup overall, heading for three straight titles!

Britain's Chemmy Alcott is ranked 18th in the World Cup super-G standings this season with a best finish of 15th in Lake Louise.

Skis on again on Sunday, it's men's giant slalom day up at Whistler. Austria's Benjamin Raich is the defending champion and you can expect to see him go close again, while American Ted Ligety leads the World Cup standings.

Ed Drake, Andy Noble and Dave Ryding go for Great Britain.

In curling, Eve Muirhead's British women play Switzerland and David Murdoch's men face the USA, while Britain's Kerr siblings perform their original dance, the second of the three ice dance sections

Canada also take on the USA in the men's ice hockey tournament. A real grudge match there, but which game isn't a grudge match in ice hockey?
