This is what it said before they apparently got shamed into changing it wink

Aha. Thank you, Steven. It is now the more accurate "Murray out"

They probably alternate "Murray out" and "Last Brit falls" when one or the other happens and got caught out by the fact that, for once, they weren't interchangeable! LOL

Having said that, it's very unusual for them not to use the verb 'crash' at the start of reports about Brits losing tennis matches, so perhaps we should be thankful for small mercies wink

Turned that tie break around nicely. Well done gentlemen.
Either of the potential opponents in the next round would be an interesting match.

Great stuff from Dom & Treat

Waiting for the GB media to react (on Twitter, I mean, where you'd usually expect a quick reaction to a GB win, even if they didn't notice it themselves if someone they follow has just tweeted it)

12 minutes later, still waiting ...

Max Mirnyi & Horia Tecau (5) or Michaël Llodra & Nicolas Mahut in the third round.

They're just about to start the decider...

25 minutes later, still nothing on the BBC live updates or from any of the GB press on Twitter (just me, our old friend TennisTalker and a few fans) but it turns out Jonathan Overend (oh how he'll be missed!) had noticed:
