Failures? Ffs, I look forward to you regaling us with all your Olympic gold medals.

Reaching the Olympics and being in the top ten, as many of or athletes have is no small achievement.

They'll not be happy in the US tonight, that's the second figure skating gold they've failed to get.

We have a pairing in figure skating tomorrow. They are meant to be quite good.

I’ve enjoyed the bits I’ve seen and the Olympics are great for watching something every four years that you’d never usually give any time too. And the Winter ones for me it’s just a bonus when we do pick up a medal. Sports Personality is always better after they’ve had an Olympics in the year too.

Watched the whole of the last runs. He absolutely nailed it. A performance right up there with the best British Olympic victories. And what a level headed bloke he is. Was a great night. Well done Matt and all of his support team.

I just don't understand how you get into that as a sport. Well unless you're holding a dinner tray whilst fooling around with a mate, who then pushes you down the slope and you somehow find out you're good at avoiding death.

This. How do you do the first ever full run? Blindfolded?

My claim to fame is a lad with the same name was in my year.
