Britain has caught the Olympic bug - and it's reflected in the medals table.

Team GB is now third, underneath China and America.

Before the close of day eight in London today, Team GB already has 26 - 11 gold, seven silver and eight bronze. In contrast by the end of day eight in Beijing, the British team had only won 17 medals - seven gold, three silver and seven bronze.

Can we keep our place near the top? Super Saturday certainly off to a sensational start as Britain's rowers claimed two golds and both Jessica Ennis and Mo Farah are competing this evening.

Check out the winning medal moments for team GB below, as we wait to see if Ennis and Farah can up the tally.
