Medal ceremony, was about 10/15 second moment when the camera was focused on one of the teams crotch.

All for GB doing well, but if the rule is when they're beyond 100m they're gone it's only fair they go.
Well if they are past the 100m then we should be thrown out and let the other 5 go surely?

Have to say one of the Aussies looked a bit too pleased to get a silver.

The seat came off on our boat and they stopped the race. Not sure what is going on, even Redgrave is uncertain so god knows.

DQ us, won enough, and the blokes in this team do seem "first against the wall" types. The women seem okay though.

Our boat just stopped. Looks like the runner on one of their seats got stuck.

Apparently if it happened more than 100m from the start they should be excluded, but there's some doubt just now.

Ah, just confirmed they go again in the restart. Dodgy?

How far had they gone? Is a bit bs if they've gone 200/300m I guess.

Ha, funnily enough on the Beeb's commentary Redgrave, knight of the realm and all, said of the seat "If it's not broken, makre sure it is."

not cricket, IMHO.

C'mon Denmark, I enjoy your porn, beer and pig-based products.
