    I think when someone is devastated at not getting a gold medal, they should resist giving interviews immediately afterwards. The GB Taekwondo lady came over very badly:o

    She was totally focussed on gold, I know that, but to say she doesn't even want the bronze came over as churlish:o

    I know sounded awful :eek:

    I thought some of the velodrome rules were complicated but can anyone understand the modern pentathlon?

    I googled it, it said run and shoot so I assume it means shoot and run in big circles.
    I thought pentathlon meant 5 things?!
