A little French girl in the crowd behind me has been shouting Simone Biles name this whole time. Biles just finished her warm up on the bars & turned around & waved at her. The girl just burst into tears!! I’m not sure I’ve seen a female athlete have this much of an impact before
When I was younger I spent HOURS pretending to read the news on the BBC… today I did it for real and I’m just pleased I have sorted my hair out and learnt how to speak
In the space of minutes we’ve just witnessed Alex Yee win the triathlon with the most incredible finish and now GB make history winning the women’s quad sculls final, with another incredible finish. If this doesn’t get you going nothing will. IMAGINE NOT LIKING SPORT!!!!!!!!
@Kalyan_Sri_
I have another one… At the end she was with the team getting pics. Loads of photographers obviously. She then spotted a photographer in a wheelchair at the back - so she got the team back together and posed for him separately. Such a little but important thing to do
12 year old Betty would be absolutely beside herself! Reporting on the Olympics for

An absolute privilege to make my Final Score presenting debut on Boxing Day of all days 🤯 Honestly can’t believe it. What a day. Im going to lie in a dark room and have a bottle of prosseco 🥂

Sorry but I haven’t witnessed anything like I did In this arena this morning! Serena Williams is an absolute legend but so is Simone. I just said I’m not sure I have witnessed an impact like it.

Here’s something to break up your timelines…
The one condition of getting this fella was that my boyfriend could choose the name. So everyone meet McGinn… I’m sure
@jmcginn7
will be thrilled. He does also have a big ass if you were wondering
I just don’t know how to sum that up. Incredible performance from

Words matter, and as our understanding of social justice evolves, our language evolves along with it. Here’s how to remove speciesism from your daily conversations.

Walked past a group of young girls today (reckon they were around 12) playing football & I heard one go ‘I wanna be like Ellie Roebuck & go in goal’ Amazing!!! Wouldn’t have heard that when I was younger. Power of representation.
Bloody love football, bloody love being a reporter. But my god is it long as a woman working alone. I’ve been kissed by fans, jumped on and had my mic taken off me and this was before 1
An absolute surreal experience to present my first programme on BBC network TV last night… helped by a brilliant match between England and Jamaica. Bring on Saturday 🤝

Dominic Solanke not being in this squad is mad! 19 goals this season for Bournemouth. Had one of the biggest seasons in PL history for a ‘bottom-half team’
Honestly, what a brilliant World Cup. The Aussies are next level but
@EnglandNetball
can be sooooo proud of that historic silver medal - the only way is up! An absolute honour to present my first tournament. 7 days on the bounce, I need a lie down. Thanks for watching 😊

Over 4 thousand travelling Ipswich fans celebrate with the players after they go top of the championship (for now) thanks to a 1-0 win over Blackburn… Far from convincing performance, but they held on. What an unbelievable story that could be unfolding!

Dan it’s killing me that I completely missed this report and didn’t react off the back because it’s amazing!!! Too much going on in my ears at this point 🫠
(1) It’s just over a year since we launched The Fast and The Curious. There’s a lot I love about this pod, but one of my fave things is how many women & girls listen. We have a 64% female 36% male split. For a sports podcast this feels incredible…
