More from Andy Murray: "A big thank you to all of my team for all the hard work they've put in to help me. To all my family watching up there, I love all of you. Thank you. I'm going make sure I enjoy winning this one, last time I was so relieved, there was so much stress and pressure I didn't get as much a chance to enjoy it. 

Huge thank you to everyone who came out to support. The Prime Minister of the country is here. Playing at a Wimbledon final is tough and I certainly wouldn't want to be Prime Minister, it's a tough job."

Reserve a seat on Have I Got News For You for that man.

Andy Murray ends of a topical, comic note, noting the fact that the Prime Minister is in the Royal Box watching him.

Centre Court jeers, Murray defuses a potentially awkward situation saying David Cameron's job is tougher than playing a Wimbledon final.

This is the moment he did it, enjoy.   

Andy Murray on BBC Sport: "This the most important tournament for me every year. I've had some great moments here but also some tough losses the wins feels extra special because of the tough losses. 

I played really good stuff today. Milos has had a great few weeks on the grass and had some unbelievable wins, that semi-final against Roger was a great, great match. 

He is one of the harder workers out there and each time we play against each other he's made big improvements. 

Andy Murray - as even and as steady as a spirit level - greets Sue Barker's opener of "Feel good?" with a head scratch and a "Er, yeah."

He pays fulsome tribute to his defeated opponent, thanks Ivan Lendl and his own team and tells his family that he loves them.

Good on him.

Andy Murray picks up his racquet, which he lost in the moment, and throws it into the crowd. A spectator drops it - they'll rue that in years to come as somebody else grabs it.

He's there! Straight sets again, Wimbledon champion again. A supreme performance from Andy Murray. Raonic has been a delight to watch but it's Murray's time in the sunshine of centre court again.

"An-dee, An-dee, An-dee!"

Centre Court is on its feet, chanting the name of its king.

Murray points to the sky, point to his box and then throws his head back and sobs as he sits on his courtside stool.
