Laura Trott: Olympics like ‘being in Big Brother house’
Team GB are heading home to a hero's welcome after their best-ever performance at an overseas games.
But two of the team's biggest stars, Laura Trott and Jason Kenny, are already home - and have had a few days to soak up the atmosphere.
Being at the Olympics "is like being in the Big Brother house," said Laura - who brought home two gold medals to add to the two she won in the London 2012 Games, making her the most successful female British Olympian ever.
Her fiancé Jason won three golds to double his previous haul. He said: "You have no idea what's going on at home, to see the buzz everyone's got about it is really special."
After Kenny won gold Laura posted a tweet that said 'Our kids have to get some of these genes right?!'
She said "I just thought it'd get me a few retweets […] Maybe sometime in the future we'll have [them]."
