[Indie]

On the live stream it seemingly cut to 5 seconds of gymnastics during his run. Great work guys

I was using that when the horsey horsey was on (although a couple of times it wasn't updating quickly enough)

It's available on the website too.

Fair play to frenchie there

 

[Madison]

That was so good.

 

[Indie]

Kieran won the 2023 world championships with a score of 95.8. So he's definitely capable of it here.

 

[Madison]

I suspect he’s improved his score over the first run.

 

[Madison]

93 ish - good for silver - GB sitting in bronze

 

[Indie]

TonyJohnJohn up to 2nd

 

[Madison]

BOOOOOO

Coward

 

[Madison]

If this isn’t more than 93.70, that’s a bronze minimum for Reilly.

 

[Madison]

WOOP!

 

[Indie]

Yeah but we want it to be golder than that

 

[PercyPig]

Oooooh

 

[ButterTart]

I don’t think I could possibly watch this live. The margin for error is BRUTAL.

 

[Madison]

It’s clean…

 

[Madison]

94.82 is the score to beat

 

[Indie]

should have done his forwards loopy loop he did yesterday

 

[Madison]

Silver

 

[Madison]

We just need a bronze to have the devil’s medal tally.

 

[PercyPig]

Awwww that was such a good competition though! Love it!

 

[ButterTart]

I’m not raging about that. Two gold, two bronze and a silver so far today is nowt to grumble about.

 

[ILL ADVISED]

Still medal chances to come with the canoe too

 

[PercyPig]

Finally someone with their top off

 

[auretz]

Guatemala have just won their first ever gold medal

Is the BBC website live feed not working for anyone else?

Seems ok for me

I am sad that the French crowd did not serenade Anthony Jeanjean to the tune of ‘Jan Jan’ by Inga & Anush.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Wow, Matt Pinsent... doesn't look like he used to.

 

[ButterTart]

Wow, Matt Pinsent... doesn't look like he used to.

He looks more like a souvenir Matthew Pinsent pencil case these days.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Jake Jarman absolutely killing it in the gymnastics!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Canadian twink just had a rough fall off the uneven bars. His hand trip broke.

It was even worse when he came back for second go. Felt so bad for him

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Why are India so terrible at the Olympics?

When his score came in he looked so gutted

 

[rhythmbandit]

Joe currently 2nd but very tight at the top.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Not looking hopeful unfortunately.

 

[FetchFugly]

I do enjoy the female gymnastics commentator on the BBC. Always ready to pour some cold water when Matt Baker and the other one get too excited.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

One of them sounds like Johnny Vegas.

Why are India so terrible at the Olympics?

Every single person in India specialises at cricket.
