Radio 5 commentating on this = most embarrassing, condescending, smug, narrow-minded, cutely nationalistic shit I have ever heard - it's like an event designed to give the home nations a sporting chance in as many events as possible
also ban incessant lyrical descriptions of how someone bravely prevailed in a fucking hurdles race - they were winning and they won, so what - play >1 hour of competitive sport then come back to me
