Hannah J, external: Most amazing way to wake up, bronze medal for Jenny Jones! Go Team GB! Tears all round!

Billo, external: Looks like Great Britain might have to invest in cow bells. We are now officially an alpine nation. Well done Jenny Jones.

Bronze medallist slopestyler Jenny Jones: "It feels amazing. I cannot believe it, I just can't believe it. I knew I was going to drop but I didn't know how far. I am just so happy.

"It was so difficult waiting. I thought I did my best run and landed it as best as I could. with the course the way it was, i did my best run."

And now for the amazing moment - her elated mum and dad step out from behind Pinsent's giant frame and embrace their daughter. They have a good old natter on live TV with her mum telling her how happy the boys are back home and her proud dad almost lost for words. Great scenes.

Jenny Jones's parents have travelled all the way out there - without her knowing. Apparently her mum has found a clever hiding place. Behind Matthew Pinsent.

"Jenny's been though a lot, she was at the top 4 years ago and for her to come here and put it down and get a bronze medal is pretty crazy," says GB snowboarder team-mate Jamie Nicholls.

"It's great for British snowboarding as a whole, Jenny's podium is really going to boost the sport so much in the UK!"

All three girls are on the top step of the podium now, arm in arm. Jones, from Bristol, started snowboarding at the age of 17 when her local dry slope was offering free lessons. After leaving college, she spent a season working as a chalet maid in Tignes, a French resort where she would win Euro X Games gold more than 10 years later (2010).

Watch Jenny Jones' historic medal-winning run.

BBC Sport snowboarding commentator on Jenny Jones' bronze medal

"Jenny Jones has just taken Britain's first ever Olympics medal on snow. This is the crowning glory to one of Britain's finest snow athletes. In the final, she has delivered one of the best runs.

"She had a calm, cool collected head there. She could have gone out there and risked it all, but she made the decision to get scored higher by making a perfect run."

Jenny Jones, 33, has been a long-time trailblazer at the top of her sport, winning three X Games titles. After winning her first World Cup medal - silver in New Zealand last August - Jones saw her season disrupted by a concussion sustained in training in December. The flower ceremony is taking place now out on the course, with the medal ceremony to follow later. Jones is smiling from ear to ear.

GB slopestyler Aimee Fuller on BBC TV: "Get your history books out and record this moment. Our girl Jenny Jones has done it. The first medal of the Olympics for Team GB. Wow!"

The gold goes to Jamie Anderson of the USA after that show-stopping run. Enni Rukajarvi of Finland takes the silver.

"What a phenomenal performance. It is not just about talent there, very few people in the world teach the heights Jenny Jones has done, no-one deserves it more."

The screams in the commentary box start as Anna Gasser tumbles off the back of a jump. Her score is only 51.75, which confirms Jenny Jones in the medal position. Aimee Fuller is crying and now Ed Leigh and Tim Warwood are going too! This is a historic moment for British winter sport and their emotional response tells you everything about what it means.

Isabel Derungs is all over the shop, stumbling and tumbling. Her score of 15.25 is a footnote. Jenny Jones is one rider away from the bronze.

"The was a battle with nerves and Jamie Anderson wrestled them to the floor and landed a beautiful run."

Wimbledon champion Andy Murray, external: Jenny Jones! Is it wrong to hope everyone left falls?

Favourite Jamie Anderson of the USA throws everything at her run. Flips, tricks and high-kicks - it's all in there. There is a hint of a hand on the floor at the end. But the judges are impressed. Very impressed. She scores a whopping 95.25. Jones slides to third.

Sweden have overcome a determined Japan team 1-0 in their Olympic women's ice hockey opener.

Swedish netminder Kim Martin Hasson made 19 saves to secure a clean sheet and captain Jenni Asserholt scored the only goal.

Torah Bright's bottom catches the snow. the judges penalise her and it's a 66.25. Only three to go.

Elena Koenz only scores 54.50. Another one down, four to go. Jenny Jones fist-pumps leader Rukajarvi - they know they are getting closer and closer to the podium.
