    It's makes for great TV. The problem being watching it on French TV with French announcers who have the habit of calling the team competing under the Union Flag "England" or "the English". It gets me mad. I mean, it's not hard to understand that it's team GB and not team England or team UK or some other such title. On an aside, I'll bet that Andy Murray had never been more British than when he won his gold medal. It seems that, for the English journalists, he's British when he wins and Scottish when he loses!
