Yup, Usain is in town, and everyone is here to listen to his thoughts - more than 500 journalists, camera crews from around the world, presenters and spectators and rubberneckers alike.

    Men's team final

    Halfway in the gymnastics and Team GB are in good shape. They're currently in third with 134.031 points. Russia are still leading the way, with Japan in second. It's pretty much game over for the USA and Ukraine though, who have had a disappointing night. Three more rotations to go...

    Nail-biting stuff wasn't it. I had no idea which way it would go. They held their form all the way through. but the Chinese were impressive.

    Adam O'Neill: Superb stuff from Daley and Goodfellow! Another bronze medal in the bag for GB!  

    Phil Adlam: Fair play, nailed that dive. Not that I know anything about diving.   

    Carly Davies-Knight: Lovely to see Tom, Dan and their team so genuinely thrilled with a bronze medal. Well done lads!!

    Parallel bars done for GB. Max Whitlock was down on his qualifying score but Brinn Bevan and Nile Wilson are both on point. Halfway through and Britain are in contention, with their strongest apparatus - pommel horse - up last. Exciting stuff.

    Tom Daley and Dan Goodfellow are diving back into the pool, but this time it's in celebration. Sheer joy from the British pair as their score finally comes up and puts them out of their misery.

    It's an 89.64 and it's good enough for bronze and GB's fourth medal of the Games.

    China complete their six dives to put the glean on that gold medal. World and Olympic champions, bravo.

    Here come the British duo - my elementary maths makes it 83.61 needed to clinch bronze... can you bear it?

    Here's the USA - oh and it's good. Probably good enough for a medal.

    They score 95.05 and Steele Johnson is almost in tears. 457.11 in total - GB would need 103 to beat it, so it's unlikely they'll nab silver.

    So - it seems we have China for gold, USA for silver and GB looking to snatch bronze from Germany... stay tuned, it's tense.

    Germany have landed a decent looking dive that heaps the pressure on USA and GB.

    They score 86.40 to finish on 438.42.

    GB will need 83.61 in their last dive to beat that.
