Attention… Go!

Mohamed (“Moe”) Sbihi was Team GB’s male flag bearer for Friday’s opening ceremony in Tokyo. Part of the men’s eight, Mohamed is the first member of an ethnic minority to have this honour. Previous British oarsmen who did this role were Jack Beresford (1936), Steve Redgrave (1992 and 1996) and Matthew Pinsent (2000). Picture: @BritishRowing

  1. Only discovered HTBS earlier this year & really look forward to 6.00.am. each morning. There’s always something new & interesting & starts the day well. If you take the Radio Times, do look at the Rowing icon for the Olympic timetable, they are both rowing on bow side! Thank goodness whoever produced that is not in charge of Team GB. Anne Stapleton.
