Ah ****, there we go, I've gone again.

My image of the games, tbh.

Storys like that are what the Olympics are about for me.

Love it when an unknown comes through for glory and that image has certainly stuck with me.

Oh, Sirens is on BBC2. McPherson gets 'em out near the end.

Feels a bit sad now it is over. A bit like that feeling you used to get on Christmas Day night when you realize it is all over.

Jessie J should change her song Domino to Camel-toe after tonights performance.

What a fantastic closing ceremony though. I'm so glad they didn't wheel Paul Mcartney out to do the ending, The Who were the perfect decision.

It always makes me go goosepimply when that girl looks up and says "I love you Mum"

A tear every time.

Gemma Gibbons telling her mum, who she lost 8 years ago, that she loved her after securing a place in the final.

Can the english premier league top the Olympics? na not a chance. Not with all these over paid cheating girls diving all over the place earning 200k a week.

The olympians are the real athletes. nuff said

Was holding one of the medals a couple of days ago. They are surprisingly heavy.

Was one of the silver medals for the mens lightweight 4's - all 4 of them were at The Now Show live and I was at the recording. They were happy to hang around after the recording, chat, have photos taken and pass their medals around.

The heaviest yet, I think that they said. The BBC had an infographic the other day about the components of the medals.

That was in 2003, and he was on it for 5 years.

Are you ill? Why don't you post something worthwhile instead of just posting nonsense.

You're a BBC commentator, aren't you?

Because I enjoyed watching sport, but it didn't have any emotional effect one me means I'm not human?

Which image?

Wouldn't you if you'd worked your butt off for at least 4 years just for that small disc of metal?

No, because it looks like every other bloody medal I've seen countless times

. I can see it well enough around your neck/chest!

Oh, I don't like Tennis either. I suppose you'll be calling me a paedophile next.

The Spice Girls were totally chronic.

She's one of the heros of the games for me. Fought with a broken hand for a few of her fights and in the final.

I was one of the cynics... but I was proven massively wrong.

And kind of glad that I was.
