GB win the Olympics! (Three months after they end...)

[Lord Camomile]

Forget China and all their medals, Great Britain are the true Olympic champions

Great Britain have been named the world's best Olympic team following their record-breaking performance at Rio 2016.

Team GB's women's hockey team have also been named best female team at the Association of National Olympic Committees (ANOC) awards in Doha.

Britain finished second in the medal table, ahead of China for the first time, winning 27 golds, 23 silvers and 17 bronzes - and became the first team to win more medals after hosting the Games.

I thought Team GB finished above China in the medal table, only behind the US?

Would probs have given the best women's team award to the American gymnasts meself...

I liked Josh Widdecombe's dig at Adam Hills;

"The last thing Australia finished second in was the Ashes."
