The crowd have certainly taken our Eddie "The Eagle"
to their hearts. What a character. Looks like that's
the last we'll be seeing of Great Britain's
Michael Edwards... ...as he comes last
in the 70 meter. Some people are calling him
Eddie "The Eagle." I think, given his distances, Eddie "The Penguin"
would be a little more apt. But at least we have the
90 meter to look forward to. Now this is the event
that truly separates the men from the boys. Of course, one boy
who won't be there is Eddie "The Eagle"... ...as it's hard
to play up to the crowd when you're strapped
to a stretcher. But now over
to the bobsleigh event where the Jamaican team
are trying to steal Eddie's
to their hearts. What a character. Looks like that's
