Ahead of the Opening Ceremony on Friday, it is a tradition to have a few football matches before the games actually start.
One great match eariler was Canada and Australia, The Canada women scored a great goal in the first 20 seconds. It's one of these things you have to watch back to believe it. Totally amazing display by the Canadian women there.

Just as this biographical documentary about British film director Ken Loach was about to start, I feared it was going to be about as thrilling to watch as an episode of 'The South Bank Show' with Melvyn Bragg. Such a reservation by me was severely misplaced however. Instead, what I saw was a superbly put together documentary by the BBC and British Film Institute. It was really interesting, incredibly insightful and surprisingly very uplifting by the end. If you are a big lover of British films like I am then this programme is a must see.
Long Lost Family (ITV, 9pm) Deeply moving synchronised sobbing as relatives are artfully reunited so they can be filmed crying a lot.
Self-styled naughty boys Stephen “The Bear” Bear, Heavy “The Tosser” D and Lewis Bore delude themselves they’re funny. I’ve got bad news for them… they’re not. Boom!
Oh look, how hilarious… Celebrity Big Brother’s unholy trinity have surrounded DJ James Whale and they’re chanting “horny, horny, horny”. Be still my aching sides. What are they, six years old?
I’m not sure where these guys are from, but I assume they were grown on a moron farm with all the other vegetables.
Child Genius (Channel 4, 8pm) The final five clever kids battle it out to be named Britain’s brightest youngster. Specialist subjects chosen by the junior boffins – who are all under the age of 12 – include Morphological and Behavioural Mimicry in Arthropods. Blimey.

More like Trash-trapped!!! Know it's only just aired but AGHHHH!!
Welcome to Non-entity Squares! The poor relation of The Chase. Regular viewers (including myself) who are now left waiting for new episodes until September. Six folks attempt to out do each other in order to be king/queen pin of the dosh through General Knowledge mallarkey. One lad. Giles stuck out, but only coz of his shirt. Was thinking it was a Tom Selleck reject. Then he went and spoiled it all by saying something stupid. Like. He used to be a copper!
The game is on, as always the viewers are wondering who most of the contestants are… and the early irritants are staking their claim to temporary fame.
Welcome to Celebrity Big Brother’s house of horror where someone called Heavy D was delighted to achieve immunity from eviction.
“Boom!” he boomed. “Bang. Wallop. Get in there.” What a vocabulary. What an interesting conversationalist.
Coronation Street (ITV, 7.30 and 8.30pm) Ahead of Kylie’s funeral Sarah realises that Todd is convinced she murdered Callum. Worse still, Sean realises that Todd and Billy are an item. There may be trouble ahead.
