Once-in-a-lifetime experience and I thoroughly enjoyed it

BBC has consistently interviewed the winners of events at past games no matter where from in addition to Brits and has also had foreign ex athletes as members of their commentary/analysis teams.

Obviously coverage is rightly geared to the home viewing audience but I've not seen it quite like it's been here so far. Maybe I've missed the interviews with all the winners

Perhaps now that Canada has the elusive first gold medal on home soil () coverage may be a little more inclusive.

Pity the Canadian in the final fell over (again). Do you think they're all smoking too much BC bud?

Could not believe some of it.

Am sure the Canadian / ex-American will be tested to prove a point - heard (in commentary) he fell in a ravine once, after a little too much juice but on the straight now.

Made a big deal of his 'Bad boy made good' before the finals which exasperated me. However, did feel for him when he fell as he was going for silver rather than settling for bronze. True sportsmanship.
