  • Gary Herbert is utterly brilliant doing the commentary of rowing

    Yes, he is excellent. And the obvious warmth for Sir Steve from all the rowers is so heartwarming.

  • i dunno if its just me but i find redgrave to be a bit of a dick when he talks
  • the wife of the 40 year old rower (can't remember his name) was on the radio this morning. he retired for about 8 years before deciding to get back into it. He and his brothers won the pairs rowing years ago. what an achievement. Well done boys!

    Was just thinking he was coming across a bit arrogantly then myself.

  • So glad she won it in her own yard what a fitting end to a great career and a fantastic woman

    she's enjoyed it so much she is even considering Rio! So not necessarily the end yet

  • Take a bow Kath can't forget Anna but the fact Kathy has finally done it is really something else

    Even the presenters are crying lol

    Kath has been the catalyst that has seen British sculling dragged from the 'B' final also rans for years to World & Olympic medalists in doubles & quads - perhaps Anna can make the break-through in singles IF Katherine retires.

    Daughter of a crewmate of mine goes for Gold tomorrow, Sophie Hosking. Dave won gold at World Champs in 80's and has rowed the Atlantic race. C'mon Sophie & Kat!!!!
