Tanni Grey-Thompson explains the difficulty she had accessing the commentary position of the Olympic Stadium on the first day of the Paralympics.

Baroness Grey-Thompson is one of Britain's greatest Paralympians and is part of the 5 Live commentary team in Brazil.

Grey-Thompson explained: "The lifts were off so we asked which way I can get in and Ally (co-commentator) and Tim (producer) were pointed to the stairs.

"A very helpful member of staff sort of showed them the direction and then looked at me and said 'well she can stay here'."

"It's nothing that hasn't been said to me at home, it was just quite funny on day one that I nearly didn't make it here."
