    I was going to post the same the other day. I heard him on the radio during the week. There's also a boxing pundit that sounds like Gregg Wallace.

    Made me laugh watching some of the vaults this morning, commentators are giving it stuff like, 'not good enough', and I'm sat there thinking WOW and that it would be a result if I got over and landed without killing myself!:D

    I like Johnny Vegas. He voices Dave in the Rubbish World of Dave Spud. & his Glamping series is the best telly this year.
    I think these lads are on loan from the Rugby. British lad’s doing well. :)

    I can’t help imagining Johnny doing the floor exercises.

    Craig Heap was one of our better gymnasts just before we started medalling on the world stage. Got 2 commonwealth gold medals. Went to my daughter's school to launch " the best you can be" in the 2012 Olympic run up.

    Well done Max Whitlock, securing Gold on the Pommel horse as he retains his Olympic title! :)

    Sorry Helen, didn’t know it was Craig Heap. He does sound a bit like Johnny Vegas though. Meant no offence, just thought that the idea of Vegas doing gymnastics is funny. Attempted wit can be dangerous on here.
