Swimming was banned in the Seine for over a 100 years so doesn't that give you some idea of what you might be up against - So where is your plan B - Start in Tahiti with the swim, then catch a flight back to France and do the next 2 disciplines in Paris
Men's triathlon postponed due to poor water quality https://www.bbc.com/sport/olympics/articles/c4ngjz32j4do
I watched a bit of the gymnastics. At one point they were commentating on one event whilst we watched another. The explanation was that the BBC doesn't control the feed (presumably only the little interviews) which sounds right so much of what we are watching isn't particularly focused on team GB even if the commentary is.
I watched a bit of the mountain biking and Tom Pidcock's performance was outstanding, likely to be one of the great stories from this year for Team GB. I watched the three day eventing hilights which the BBC repeated later on for some reason. I do like show-jumping so at least it's a sport I roughly know what's going on.
Oh and I watched Summer McIntosh swimming, crazily far ahead. Although her parents have given her a name that sounds like a brand of warm weather waterproof.
Why isn't he referring to Paris as 'Paree' just to be consistent?!
Fucking nonsense. Good old Beeb.
It became recognised as Turkiye in 2021 and the pronunciation changed with that. The English speaking world has been pronouncing it differently for the last three years, nothing to do with the BBC.
