SVT - Sveriges Television - "Swedish State Television" has done some coverage on DreamHack Winter 2011 and I just thought I'd share the links here for the perhaps non swedish who doesnt visit http://www.svt.se too often ^^.

I own NO RIGHTS to these clips - they all belong to SVT - Sveriges Television.
Thank you SVT for covering e-sport!


[English]
SVT interviews Alena Krupnyk aka "WifeRa" (WhiteRa's wife ^^)
Related (Google translate) article for the above interview

Side note: I don't know who can/cannot view the clip above because of license issues sometimes, but hopefully all of you can view it!

[Swedish]
SVT talks about E-sport and the caster "Endars"
Eng to Swedish Google translate of the same link above


SVT DREAMHACK STREAM "ULTIMATE" LINK
(Swedish commentary): http://svtplay.se/v/2616886/e-sport/dreamhack_ultimate <-- Pretty sure that's the Arena one (hasnt started yet when I am writing this)


SVT DREAMHACK STREAM LINK #2
(Swedish commentary): http://svtplay.se/v/2611057/e-sport/dreamhack_extreme

Cheers & gg gl hf!

Amazed how an interview between people from Sweden and Ukraine is done in English.

Some good (unintentional) White-Ra style quotes in that interview.

What do you mean? That it's cool how "everyone speaks english" nowadays - or that they didn't walk around with a Swedish-Ukrainian translator 24/7 ( ^^ ) so she could express herself perfectly?

I guess the reporter sort of just spoke to someone quite randomly and found "her story" interesting

I find it amazing that you think it´s cool It´s like a normal thing to choose english when we are talking to forgeiners .

But in many other european countrys, I get the feeling that they mostly wanna talk with their native language to visitors.

Like: Germany,French,Spain,Italy and so.
but hey we swedes often speak swedish with other folks in Denmark and Norway too sometimes :D

Anyone who knows who'll be casting the finals on the rematch-stream? I loved the two who did it at Dreamhack Summer (think it was ominous and one other guy I'm not familiar with). That cast was a blast. They just loved every single moment during the finals.

Talking to them in english should be a given thing, however, plenty of shows dub over in their native language.
I think the poster (and I) are just thankful that this was not done, which allows people like us to watch and appreciate the interview!
