lol at blake's interview... couldn't understand it without Tivo. Bolt will be the fastest man ever for a while. He truly is a freak of nature.

i hate how they interview the athlete JUST after the race has finished. leads to awkward conversation with out of breathe often disappointed competitors. the worst was with tyson gay when he just came 4th by a fraction of a second, please stop it bbc.

consider yourself lucky, you could have

nelson monfort
worst interviewer
(does the same thing + always shouts at athletes with his awful voice and terrible accent and then cuts athletes right after they said four words to translate them into french. not to mention awkward questions - the guy asked one of the french swimming relay girls who had just won bronze if that medal was something special for her after her mom died the year before. fucking tactless)

Agreed It's wrong putting a mic infront of them asking the batest of questions when you know what the answers are going to be. Like yesterday with mens lightweight rowing, the blokes were in tears and clearly broken over it and he still interviewed them... tho that was funny as he got emotional too and his voice bugged out when introducing the cycling

There were/are no steelworks in Bolton, besides a few fabrication/welding places.
