    THE UK HAS BEEN BETRAYED!

    JOIN THE STRUGGLE, FIGHT THE TRAITORS!

  • where can i buy that hat??

  • Well you got your medal Britiain well done.

  • Comment removed

  • nah thats out of order aswell mate, i worked with a lot of english boys on the rigs and that arsehole doesnt represent them all

  • @ mr abnormalton....what a complete and utter aresehole!!!

  • Well done to Amy Williams of ENGLAND on winning GB's only medal, a shame those looser scottish let us all down in curling, but lets face it thats not a real sport is it!? Yes I am a troll so fuck off.

  • going down hill on a tea tray !!! i would do well at that!

  • Wow 30 years is a long wait. Maybe they should introduce winter sports that suit the brits...

  • if her helmet was different from everyone else's(added features).....could that be the reason she "blew" everyone else away? just sayin

  • that made no sense at all....i know u were tryin to be humorous but jeez that was bad lol

  • i was'nt trying to be humorous or disrespectful at all. the contest was'nt even close, she smoked everybody. alot of people think that helmet made all the difference.

  • Great job Amy! No matter what anyone else says you really deserved it! Go Britain! =]

  • she goes to my school!!!

  • about time for some bikini shots then?

  • Very pleasing news, congratulations Amy!

  • go britain!!!

  • You made two and a half minutes of video about a winning sportsperson without showing a single second of her winning run. D'Oh!

  • Well done Amy, Britain is proud of you.

  • Check out England's 2010 WORLD CUP SONG...out soon.

    View it on my profile.

  • ITN are stupid.

  • HEY GUYS I HAVE ALL THE HIGHLIGHTS FORM THE OLYMPICS!!!! check it out not bad quality. worth it! PLEASE CHECK IT OUT. also I will be covering every other major sport event possible!

  • Yes, the title should have said that though?

  • hot

  • For the record, getting greater access to the facilities before hand just happens to be one of the advantages of being the host country. We are just getting flak for it because people expect Canadians to be passive and unassertive. There is nothing wrong with striving to be the best and using all the common advantages available to do so.

  • its one thing, having the perks like greater access to facilities as host nation......its another thing altogether not giving the rest the neccesary training time needed to compete on a level playing field.....but hey super amy still beat every canadian in the field.....well to be fair she never just beat them she destroyed them so happy days lol but i must say, in general i have no problem to canadians they are some of the coolest down to earth people on the planet......

  • but whoever sancioned or gave the go ahead for the appeal against amy's win needs to give themselves a shake because that was rank rotten, she blew the field away fair and square

  • i dont know but i stayed up to watch all four of her runs and she was brilliant....but fuck me id shag her everywhere shes so sexy! lol

  • These sore loser make me sick, they wouldn't allow the other countries to practise on the track to try and ensure they would win.

    Amy won despite her main training being done on a concrete track back home in Bath.

  • Buck up Canada, just wait until the Curling competition. You'll show 'em what you're made of.

  • this is from a true Canadian, way to go Amy! you really deserved it! =) and nice meeting you! you have a awesome personality. It's true its just the Canadians that are selfish and that want to win on home land. I'm a Canadian and I love to cheer for Great Britain. Great job Amy!

  • @dapphe101

    Just an FYI that the previous day after the 1st 2 runs there was a protest about the helmut form 5 different countries, not just canada, who would not have won a medal even if Williams was DQ'd

  • Congrats Amy from Los Angeles!

  • wait, since when in 30 divisible by 4? either its 32 or 28.

  • Outstanding,the moaners have no class,sure they will one day be somewhat ashamed

  • GO ON AMY!!!!!!!!! YOU TELL THEM!!!

    but oh no! Canada is becoming America!

    Spoilt and jealous upset toddlers that cry when they don't win something and try to find a reason to say that the other team cheated!

    I wonder though if their complaint was upheld - would a Canadian Olympian really feel any pride, if they got a medal just by press-ganging and techincal-faulting their way to victory, instead of just being good?

    Sort it out Canada. Be more British and less American!

    :-)

    ..OK.. flame me

  • Well done Amy! We stayed up until the early hours two nights running to watch you win Gold - and in such style too! On the third night we watched the presentation also. You really really did us proud.

    I have to say the German girls were fabulous and true sports. When these two CLOSEST competitors lifted you on the winners podium, this was the answer to those sore losers who objected to your victory.

  • I agree. It's sour grapes from a team with every possible home advantage. Amy doesnt even have a proper track to practice on in England for crying out loud! The Canadian team should applaud a very rare British gold medal, won by a plucky girl who beat them fair and square....

  • Hear hear! We stayed up to watch it too, and what made our evening was how amazing the german medalists were as well.

  • Well Done Amy :)

  • I used to love Canada but now I think thy are all greedy pompous dickheads. Be happy for someone else you jealous nation.

  • Don't be ignoarant enough to think that a few people represent the views and actions of an entire nation. I am sure I will be greeted with a few expletives in your response, but that only goes to prove my point further, if not, then maybe you'll have learnt something.

  • @dwainegibson lol, it wasn't the whole of Canada, just the Canadian team that are jealous

  • Well done Amy!!

  • The unfair helmet claim is utter poppycock. I was a car design engineer for 25 yrs. If anything, those tiny ridges at a 45 deg. angle HINDER, not help the laminar flow over Amys body. Besides, efficient aerodynamics is a legitimate goal in some Olympic sports. Bobsled is a prime example. Wealthy teams (eg. Canadians & Americans) spend big $ to design & develop sleds with least wind resistance. Do competitors from poorer countries object that Canada has an unfair advantage with a hi-tech sled?

  • o3o first off, the british don't say 'poppycock'. and secondly.. what? ._.

  • If Britain was the size of USA with the same ammount of citizens we would never ever lose a final at anything FACT. I guess it is because we get out and do things and not worship the TV lol.

    Well Done Amy and yes i agree she is fit also.

  • Yeahahaha! good job Amy. :)

  • check out England's OFFICIAL 2010 WORLD CUP song...out in 1 months time.

    It's on my profile...

  • queen of snow :D

  • Disappointed that Canada felt the need to lodge a second protest, after knowing one had already been dismissed. Come on guys, grow up! It's like a 4-year-old kid going to ask their mum for a candy after their dad has already told them "No".

  • Erm, does anyone remember the winter olympics 8 years ago? I think it was Britain who won GOLD in the Curling... Get your facts right!!!

  • @mattailin 

    This is the first INDIVIDUAL gold.

    Curling was a team event by more than one person. This was an individual event.

  • @mattailin

    the news reporter even states this

    he says 'the first SOLO gold medal winner in 30 years'

  • I'm glad Amy won but this makes Canadians look a bit bad. I hope Britons don't think Canadians are sore losers because they have enough negativity in their media about Vancouver 2010 already.

  • Excuse me? Since you are not british - and I am - what are you basing this 'negativity in the media' on? Mostly, reports on vancouver have been pretty disappointed because apart from Amy, we haven't received another gold, or the complaints about her helmet, but that's it.

  • Get in. Good to see us win a medal at the winter olympics :D

  • -Claps-!

  • Wow Im British and i never would of guessed we won a medal in the winter olympics and im half norweigen which is very good because norway have 5 gold medals and 11 medals all together which is good, also who saw shaun white in the half pipe? That was so cool.

  • C'mon ITN, show us the medal ceremony! Our first chance to see the Union Jack raised and hear God Save the Queen played, and I can't find it anywhere. Ex-pat in California.

  • I think htis got uploaded before because i watched the ceremony and it was like in mid-day

  • its on the BBC website

  • Congratulations Amy, well done. I know the US and Canada filed complaints agains your helmet, but that is just sour grapes and poor sportsmanship. You deserved that win all the way. I am Canadian, and I love that you won. It's a truly proud moment for the UK.

  • cheers from america i know we contested it to but its bullsh!t you won, this victory is yours to celebrate as you wish

  • yeah it's their time to shine... go brits..;]wow in 30 yrs.. man they really needed this.. not in a bad way ;]

  • soo hot

  • @MrCF19K I knooow :O :D

  • Well done girl. Along with our armed forces you have put the "GREAT" back into Britain. Well done.

  • Its great when a underdog defeats the cheats

  • Comment removed

  • Congrads people should be happy for her... i knows i am and im Canadian

  • Well done Amy, all of Britain is proud of you.

  • Oh Well, she might have well have one a Gold Medal for "Who can spit the furthest" because no where can you get to see her actual winning performace. All I see is the above video as news coverage and loads of still pictures. Also one UK media channel won't let me play as I'm not in the UK!!

  • Not only is she good but she's fit.

  • So's her mum...!

  • Listen, you pair of sad bastards, where can I watch the winning performance for the 3rd time!!!

  • On the internet

  • never mind bickering between each other....where can i watch her performance!!!!!!

  • can anyone tell me where I can see video of the actually winning the gold?? Would you believe I have tried everywhere on line with no success!! Talk about not respecting her win!!

  • You Brits or should I say BRATS just hate America because we wanted to be our own country. Got away from you. Oh well!!

  • cant actually say I hate americans. stop being so judgemental

  • She is beautiful and talented! Good on her! Got more balls than most men to do that!!

  • Amy Williams...You are inspirational

  • No mate...you suck. Brits are doing just fine.

  • Just fine? ... In what world are you living in? What do we ever win in? Sure we get the odd individual who wins an odd medal at the olympics but compare that with other nations. When was the last time we actually came first in the olympics, or the world cup or generally anything?

  • well we dont sponser our atletes like other countrys do they have to do it all in there own time or take time of work some have been sacked for taking time of work so in all we win by shere guts and deadicatin well done amy

  • allah65456............fuck allah

  • @Allah65456 HAHAHA!!! SO true!!!  USA ALL the Way!!

  • yh thats amazing cosidering that our country is as big as one of your states, we are tiny!  you have i dunno something like 13 states so that averages to around 1.6 medals per state, yup your doing fantastically, realistically your not doing far better. Be proud of your achievements dont belittle everyone elses.

  • @jesstar05 we have 50 states.  thank you..

  • If you have 50 states (which you do) That makes your statistics worse then ours

  • sorry mate geography never been my strong point, but if i were you i would never have pointed that out :) If you were Britain you would be doing far worse with those statistics. I did suprisingly look it up and the first website said 13 for some reason but i didnt really read it i couldnt be bothered loooool wooops my bad but still what i pointed out is still a fair point, no matter how dumb i looked in rthe process!

  • @jesstar05 sorry. I didn't mean to put you down. I apologize.

  • USA? THe country that has mountains, cold weather and ideal conditions to breed winter athletes. Considering Mount everest is 8 times higher then our talllest mountain and we have no facilities, Golds a pretty special result you know

  • mount everest is no where near the united states you fucking idiot

  • Did I say it was? No! I said the tallest mountain in britain is no where near as big as everest, learn to read

  • Well done Amy all your family stayed up and watched you .. well done your brilliant

  • USAHAHAHAHA

  • Well done Amy, shame about the Canadains trying to spoil it for you.......BAD CANADIANS KNOW YOUR PLACE!!!

  • Hey, we dont all hate your country. I've been to the South and loved it. My country gets bashed too lol -- x

  • 'not said one bad comment' why dont you look at your previous comment, why are you on this video trolling

  • @xASxDragoon I said I didn't say anything bad about Amy or Great Britain. DUH!!

  • Comment removed

  • Did she really say "...oh fck I must've won..." at 0:16, and on ITN national news? GO AMY!!!

  • Really proud to be British - thank you for doing such an incredible job - and going so incredibly fast! In awe of how fearless Amy was

  • Anyway, good to read all your comments. Love you New World guys really!

    Congrats to Amy, great result. Welcome everyone to London 2012, unless the bankers have bankrupted old blighty by then.

  • yet if you look at the history of the winter olympics, you are behind Norway in the medal tables. a country of 4.5 million people. What was the term you used? oh yes, HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And i believe you came second to China last year. tit

  • We always do better that GB though. ANY OLYMPICS!!!!

  • Actually we won in London 1948,and Antwerp in 1924 ;)

  • Shut your fucking mouth, 10D1971

  • @Nihilanth1982 MAKE ME.

    Dawn

  • Urmm, GB came 4th in Beijing. Your country is massive. Being Patriotic is fine, but you are just being discriminative. stfu

  • what a doll and winner .... i want to marry her ..

  • GO TEAM GB! Well done Amy! Can't believe the Canadians thought there was a problem with her helmet - they r such bad losers! Plus, other than the official practice runs, they would only let the Canadians practice on the track and we still won, so thats what they get for basically cheating.

    Well done Amy, you deserve that medal!

  • NINETY percent of all the top American athletes are NOT American but more American citizens THAT SAYS IT ALL .That is very very poor coming from a Country where ONE SINGLE Stae in America is bigger than Britain herself .

    What about that ????????

  • Can't describe how I feel that GB won a gold in an event that needs a bit of guts and true skill.

    Well done Amy, you have balls of true top quality steel!

  • The medals ceremony is tonight Sat Feb 20th in Whistler, around 6pm Pacific Time

  • Amy deserved the win so humble and so generous in condoling the losers AKA THE YANKS AND CANADIANS AKA ENGLANDS former Countries to do whatever they liked there.

    Anyways WD Amy once again such a deserving winner.

  • God Bless America. So easy to wind up! Ever heard of spell check, you red necks?

    At least you still have Tiger Woods.

  • lul...she raped the competition by a big margin

  • Great to see one of the Good Guys win. Well done Amy. Have the Americans dropped their helmet protest yet, or are they too busy going for gold in obesity?

  • at eating and bombing the brits!!!! see this as revenge!!!

  • when did America bomb the brits?? We never did. Learn some history.

  • Comment removed

  • stfu

  • @martyn534200 The CANADIANS had a problem with her win.. NOT the AMERICANS!!!!!!!

  • Actually, the complaint was lodged by both the Canadian AND the American team.

    (I'm only reply because I can't see a response to your statement, so if there already has been I'm sorry :) )

  • who yah talking to?

  • It's happening tonight, that's why. 10 hours or so.

  • amy is HOT.

  • amazin! funny watchin it on tele, no one seemed to even want to say she might get the gold cause the bottom inevitably falls out for the british, not this time though! (and a big 'whatever' to the americans for thier accusations)

  • As an American, this is what the Olympics is all about. Bravo Amy Williams!Now if Canada and the other countries(i think even the US) could drop their protest, let Britain celebrate this momentous victory.

  • @chaps666 What the hell is that supposed to mean? All brits have shit teeth? If so, screw you.

    WELL DONE AMY! Marvelous effort that.

  • Comment removed

  • In America we are portrayed with huge buck teeth and posh accents. If thats so, claps you must be a pretty fat racist smelly shit

  • So by that understanding being an American you must be pretty fat from eating one too many hamburgers, right?

  • @chaps666 i love the smell of jealousy!! haha

  • wow chaps, you are a fucking idiot.

  • Well done Amy!!!

    As someone who used to live in Bath, I am so very proud of her. Great job!!!

    Cheers!!!

  • Brilliant ot see Amy win. So dedicated and focused yet a really nice girl. And, as others have pointed out, absolutely gorgeous. Can't wait to see her on TV when she gets back home. I hope the media promote her and don't forget about her.

  • Well done Amy you deserve it .

  • Fantastic crumpet. Unassuming and pretty. Why were the Canadians complaining about the helmet? Let it go you graceless oiks.

  • isnt she a fit bird, congrats amy!!

  • Couldn't have happened to a nicer girl.

    Very gracious of her to congratulate Jon, the gold medal winner and recognize the tremendous pressure placed on the Canadian team...a group of very good people.

  • Most badass Olympic sport

  • @ApoplecticDemon Sexy Deathslide I've heard it called. Maybe not quite the right name given what's happened on the same track but it did make me chuckle

  • Well done Amy! A really great triumph. Had to watch history in the making. Once again from all those at Mulbury Hamilton, well done.

  • Brava! Congratulations from the States!

  • well done from ulster.

  • Congratuliation Amy, we are all so proud of you!

  • Well done Amy

  • Congratuliation we are so proud of you :D

  • fantastic achievement, very well done Amy

    congrats

  • haha canadian chokers, get over it .... well done Amy !

  • the only reason the americans and candaians are complaing is because they thought they would place in the top 3 but when they saw there chances of losing they started to complain. there just bad losers and i didnt see any other county complaining it just shows you shouldnt b cocky before u race because you will look stupid wen u dont place like the yanks and canadians! LOSERS!!

  • get in there amy williams!!!! absolutely brilliant!!!! good to see the yanks and canadians complaining about it too!!!!! made it even sweeter!!!!

  • I thought the Scottish Curling team won winter olympic gold 8 years ago

  • That is true, but this is the first individual medal in 30 years (Torvil and Dean also won a gold in 84)

  • Ok I see. Fantastic achievement for her.

  • WELL DONE Amy.

    May you win many many more medals.

  • she looks like carrie ann moss

  • At 1:43 - Bad error in the report, if she did it in 35 seconds she'd have been going more like 200mph! I think you meant 53 not 35.

  • WELL DONE AMY!!!

    Fantastic stuff, it just goes to show that hard work and talent pays off!!

    Sports personality of the year 2010 anyone.....

  • @marksims68 No sports personality of the year will go to England's Rio Ferdinand after lifting the World Cup.

  • England wont, yet he will still get sports perso for getting us knocked at at the 1.4 finals at penalties. Amy williams for sports personailty, THen Jessica Ennis second when she breaks the world pentathlon record in Doha
