    Viewers for the GB match yesterday peaked at 2.5million.

    Does anyone know where I can find a TV Guide for the BBC Olympic Channels?

    I've tried google and have been unsuccessful.

    Russia - might take a couple of golds in gymnastics? Perhaps the athletics too. A Russian won the long jump at the European Championships so fingers crossed.

    Japan - have a chance to take gold or silver in the women's football.

    Brazil - Hope it's a Japan v Brazil final in the women's and not the U.S now!

    Spain - Spain and Brazil in the men's football final too! The Spanish are into the diving too aren't they?

    Looking good!

    Not surprising - we're not hosting it, although technically the map should only show London.

    Unlike the World Cup, Olympic Games are awarded to a host city not country.

    But a number of events are also taking place out side of London. Football and sailing events to name two.

    is it me, or is it a bit coincidental that these three Boards user-names appear together??

    It's always the head of state that opens the games.
