Nicole Cooke

What a brilliant end to the women's road race! The first gold for G.B. at the Bejing olympics, the 200th in the modern era. The best bit. She's Welsh!

Never heard of Nicole Cooke, but I was hoping the UK got no medals at all - because the Olympics as a sporting occasion is basically a load of old tosh.

I was over the moon to hear some Czech bint won the first gold in the Women?s 10m Air Rifle Shooting event! That's not a sport - because any fooker with a steady hand and endless time to practice could get to the Olympics.

Folk hero status awaits....

And have you not heard thought of the best- as things stand, it is her or Lewis Hamilton for Sports Personality of the Year...

Mind you, Man U must be Team of the Year and Padraig Harrington shoed in as Overseas Personality already.
