What does it take to win an ice skating Olympic gold medal? Eric Radford and Meagan Duhamel are Canada’s double World Champions and one of the favourites for gold in the Pairs discipline in South Korea in 2018.

The Winter Games might not be until February, but their Olympic dream begins in June - seven months before they take to the ice to skate for gold.

In The Studio has been given exclusive access to Eric and Meagan’s training base in Montreal, Canada, to see how they create one of the two routines that they hope will see them reach the top of the podium in Pyeongchang.

From key decisions about music, to the choreography and the costumes, we are with them every step of the creative process. We hear from coaches and their support team about how they create a gold medal winning routine. Plus, we join Radford and Duhamel in training, on and off the ice.

Eric is unique amongst skaters. He is the only athlete in his sport to come out as gay whilst at the top of his career. Meanwhile, it is a family affair for Meagan, who is married to their Coach and is the sister-in-Law of their choreographer.
