Tomorrow at the Winter Olympic Games in China, a young man from Prestwick will take to the ice as he seeks to win gold for Team GB.

Lewis Gibson, alongside skate partner Lilah Fear, will be appearing in the figure skating event on Saturday (February 12).

The pair hope dancing to a medley of music from Lion King can help propel them to big things at the Olympics.

The Prestwick-born figure skating star makes his Team GB debut in Beijing on the back of finishing fifth at January’s European Championships.

"The Lion King is a story that resonates so much with us,” said Gibson.

“We both grew up watching it and adoring it and adoring the storyline.

“That goes for a lot of people around the world and I really hope what we do out there on the ice can show that.

“I just want our performance to come across as something that people can relate to, sit back and enjoy.”

Fear added: "It's about friendship, universal love and empowerment - it's something everyone strives to achieve as a human being.

“It's about trial and tribulation and remaining gracious and strong and believing in yourself.

“We've both experienced ups and downs in our career and personal lives and that's allowed us to harness those emotions and experiences into a real performance.”

Gibson and Fear’s partnership began back in 2016 when they entered their first international competition that season.

They are both targeting the next Games, set to be staged in Milano-Cortina in 2026, as the time to peak and aim for an Olympic medal.

Fear said: "Our dream is to be on the Olympic podium - that would be great to do here, but we have a long-term vision and we want to push ourselves to grow and evolve as athletes over the next four years."

Gibson added: "It's a competition so you just never know what can happen.

“We have that long-term vision and for that to happen here, would be a bit of a shock! Amazing, nonetheless, but our sights are set a little further down the line.”

The figure skating event will take place tomorrow from 11.07am until 2.38pm.
