Mad isn't it, the only nation beating us is the US, but how many hundreds of millions of people can they choose from?!
Saying that, what about China and their huge population and state investment in athletes.
The future is bright, the future is GB.

I concur, best thing that Major ever done in his tenure.

One thing I would ask is how Laugher is pronounced Law/Lure? Silver medal for a Gold medalist diver, who would have thunk it?

Confirmed, Great Britain finishes second in the Olympics, above China and Russia lol.



...now to concern ourselves with successful and beneficial negotiation out of the EU...oh those folk who put Britain down, lol, prepare to be surprised, this country is doing okay, and will thrive over the next few years.
Go Team GB!

I agree. That was a very impressive performance which was even better than a very good 2012 showing.

Absolutely.
It makes Great Britain the first host nation to win more medals at their following away Games.
Lil' GB, who'd have thunk it.

You guys ended up with the same amount of medals as France and Germany combined. Maybe the US and UK should just hold their own games and let the rest of the losers duke it out.
