The Wenlock mascot waddling after Usain Bolt then giving Bolt a golden Wenlock with all three doing the Bolt pose! The pictures of it crack me up!

Bert le Clos, Chad's father's interview with Clare Balding. Lovely but so funny.

Mr Bean at the Opening Ceremony.

Oh another Wenlock one where he hugs Mo after his win. The action shot with Mo's legs swinging in the air!

The mix up with the flag of South Korea instead of North Korea at the Football, of all the Countries to do it to, it had to be them.

The german diver back flopping off the diving board- he really fecked up his chances.

The american scull rower who seemed to have the swellest reaction to winning a bronze medal.

Only really amusing moment for me was in the stadium this evening with the Czech girl whipping off her towel before commencing her pole vault run. There was much appreciation from the stand and we caught her smiling at the reaction, which amused us in the crowd no end.

Then she cleared her vault and we loved her even more.

You can tell he paused a bit as well momentarily when he realised he wasn't being quite PC

I loved Nick Skelton's excitement at winning gold and him jumping onto the podium before he was supposed to. He'd waited a lot of years for a medal but clearly couldn't wait any longer.

Most already mentioned but...

The very, very happy American rower

Clare, Mark and the wonderful Ian Thorpe poolside, constantly funny, insightful and just great chemistry

Bolt and that mascot, bizarre and hilarious

Chad's Dad - total star and Chad's medal presentation, although that was more then amusing

The comment on here in one the day's action thread describing Ben going all 'gangsta in a boat'

Wells has got a lot of stick for this.

But to be fair to him, firstly what he said was true, and secondly he had probably seen MJ's recent program about this very topic, so it would have been a reasonable thing to say especially with MJ sitting next to him on the sofa.

Colin Jackson during the men's 100m "Here comes whatshisname". Still makes me chuckle

And Bert le Clos, "beautiful boy"

In the cycling yesterday afternoon I was certain that the commentator said 'the whore of Belgium'. I had to go look up all the riders before I realised what he really said.

Jeremy Hunt and the bell wins hands down for me [I suspect sabotage from some long suffering employee in his department who has to tidy up the gaffes]

The footage of that piss artist Ashley Gill-Webb running away from reporters after appearing in court on that bottle-throwing charge yesterday. The speed he was shifting, we should put him in the 100m relay team.
