    I admire Brad so much - Redgravepublished at 23:51 British Summer Time 12 August 2016

    Sir Steve Redgrave
    Five-time Olympic rowing champion on BBC Radio 5 live

    It is fantastic to be here. The atmosphere is very special.  I wanted to be here to see the team pursuit win and to see Brad win.

    I admire him so much. For his character, he’s very different, fresh and special.

    I am getting annoyed these cyclists are pushing me down the list!

    Here's more reaction from the man himself. Straight after the gold medal was won, he told BBC Sport he was "relieved" to win for his team.

    So Wiggo reveals his plans for this evening. If I was in Rio I'd be finding the bar he's in. It will be a good do.

    Is Wiggins Britain's greatest Olympian?published at 23:45

    Sir Bradley Wiggins' tally of five gold medals is still one fewer than Sir Chris Hoy's six, with the Scot winning all of his on the track, but he draws level with rower Redgrave.

    If you put them into a medal table, Hoy would still be top dog.

    Karen Shopland and Kirsty Hardman aren't only superfans - they're good luck charms too.

    Shopland from Derby witnessed Adam Peaty's gold in the pool as well as the rowing success today and the men's team pursuit gold. Hardman, from Norfolk, is here on honeymoon with husband Matt, who has half of his face painted too.

    "We loved 2012 so decided on the 2016 Olympics for our honeymoon and our friends have been very generous to help us get here.

    "I didn't get to see cycling in London and I have thoroughly enjoyed it tonight. My 'other half' decided he wanted to go to the basketball instead!"

    Highlights

    A little earlier on we told you that Great Britain went out after they drew with Spain and other results went against them. If you can bring yourself to watch, here are the highlights.

    'Wiggins is the greatest GB cyclist of all time'published at 23:35 British Summer Time 12 August 2016

    Sir Chris Hoy
    Six-time Olympic cycling champion on BBC One

    Sticking his tongue out during the medal ceremony showed what a release of pressure it was. He's happy, relaxed and loving the moment.

    He's the greatest British cyclist of all time because of what he's done across the board in so many disciplines. Chris Froome has won three Tours de France, which is no mean feat, but Bradley has won road world titles, Tour de France, track titles and set the world hour time record.

    Tonight hasn't really changed that because he was the greatest before tonight.

    It's not all British celebrations tonight, though. Not only have Murray and Watson gone out of the mixed doubles, but the men's hockey team have also had their exit confirmed.

    New Zealand have beaten Belgium 3-1, and that means Great Britain's 1-1 draw with Spain is not enough for them to progress.

  20. Great Britain third in the medal tablepublished at 23:25

    And, with those golds now hanging around the necks of the men's pursuit team, we can officially say that Great Britain are third in the medal table.

    Seven golds, eight silvers and six bronze put GB above Japan.

    In your face, Land of the Rising Sun.
