Gymnastics coach Colin Sill says he is impressed by Beth Tweddle's attitude after she qualified for the final of the uneven bars in Beijing.

Tweddle has overcome a number of injuries in the run-up to what will be her final Olympics before retiring.

"I feel sorry for that kid she's put everything in to this. She's had a twisted ankle, a bad back, all sorts, but she's still there, said Sill."

Telford-based Sill coaches at the GB gymnastics centre at Lilleshall.
