I'd never watched rowing before, im remember watching this live at the time and bursting into tears when gb got over the line. Was truly amazing and absolutely brilliant commentary.

I remember watching this in a pub very late in the UK and everyone crowding around the old TV set shouting and willing GB to a famous victory.

One of THE most emotional and spectacular sporting achievements ever - along with fantastic commentary
I remember watching it live in 2000 with tears in my eyes, and 24 years on - it still makes me cry
Totally amazing 👍🏼

I'm British but was living in New Zealand when the Sydney Olympics was on. Normally a very calm, quiet man, but the second half of this race was the one and only time I have ever got up out of my seat, screaming at the telly! Epic race. So proud of the GB crew - especially Tim Foster, from my old rowing club in Bedford, and Steve Redgrave, my rowing hero!

Amazing to watch this after watching ‘Goldfever’. You really are awarded if you sacrifice your utmost for your sport.

Hard to see but I do think there were more British flags in the crowd than Australian.
