Great runs from the French and British girls

British record, nearly broke the magical 9min barrier.

I think Bird just broke the British 3000m Steeplchase record for men and women.

Edit - I'm talking rubbish she was nowhere near the mens.

Not men's. Men's is 8:07, she got just over 9mins but did break her own British record.

I'm going mad mate. Misread the time!

Women's 200m coming up. I think Gabbie Thomas walks gold, Alfred takes silver, Brown takes bronze.

Neita and Asher-Smith need to be close off of the bend to try and snatch bronze.

The bbc always tries to be so clever with their video montages, why not just focus on the actual events?

Very very annoying isn’t it - hardly shown any live events tonight. Shambles!

Can't be arsed with all of these entrances. It's worse than the fucking darts.

Quite a few of these lady 100m/200m runners are well fit. Not the man muscle roiders of the past

Women’s 200m final about to run.

We have Neita and Asher-Smith, but neither are tipped to compete for the podium.
