WATCH: Bradley Wiggins had the rest of his teammates in stitches during God Save The Queen

Patrick McCarry

How very Rock n’ Roll.

Bradley Wiggins is now a five-time Olympic champion. Not many Wiggins’s can say that. Not many humans can say that.

The Team GB track cyclist is now 17 mere golds behind Michael Phelps after helping his pursuit team to the top of the podium and, while they were at it, a world record time.

We’re not sure if Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth was up late to watch the boys won gold. If she was, she may well have caught Wiggins acting the noodle during the national anthem.

His teammates could hardly keep a straight face.

In recent centuries, that kind of guff could have got your head disconnected from the rest of your body.

We live in better times now.
