The Games1998

John:
If the gold medals aren't gold, we shouldn't call them gold. Call them the yellow medal.

Gina:
It doesn't have quite the same ring to it, does it? 'Triple yellow medallist Dawn Fraser.'

John:
Well, no, it lacks mystique. And I can't imagine that the winner of the grey medal and the winner of the brown medal will be all that disappointed that they didn't get up for the yellow medal.

Gina:
Better to come fourth.

John:
Yes, being run out in the heats is not looking like a bad result either.
