    Unconfirmed reports that Jessica Ennis must beat Nafissatou Thiam by 9.47 seconds in the 800m to win gold.

    The difference between their PBs? 9.47 seconds.

    That is so unlucky for poor Fran Halsall. She misses out on gold by six hundredths of a second, bronze by two.

    We were celebrating a gold at BBC Towers, and she has to leave empty handed. Cruel.
