Were Helen Glover and Heather Stanning the same girls that were miles ahead and came first in a heat on monday or were there more than one rowing pair for GB? Reason I ask is that I didn't really recognise their faces today but I guess they must be the same girls? Brilliant job though getting gold!

Ah, no, it wasn't them. I just realised it's the girls for the double sculls, Anna Watkins & Katherine Grainger. Their final is tomorrow. Great chance for gold. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/olympics/18905853

Well done :)

GB kept hitting the buoys, they were drifting in and out of their own lane near the end.
