GB's men's curlers have qualified for the Winter Olympics semi-finals after beating Norway 6-5 in a tense play-off.
They will now face Sweden on Wednesday for a place in either the gold medal match, or the bronze game.
In a tight affair at the Ice Cube in Sochi, a superb final shot by skip David Murdoch, where he took out two Norway stones to score a double, saw Great Britain through.
Murdoch has finished fourth and fifth in the previous two Winter Olympics.
He said: 'It will certainly go up there as one of my best shots ever. It's just tremendous; it's great to get into the semi-finals. We've had fantastic support through the week and that game was absolutely incredible. '
Norway, who had a 7-6 victory over GB in the round-robin stage, were the first to get a score on the board when they took one in the first end and they traded singles and blank ends until the fifth end where skip Thomas Ulsrud made two.
Murdoch hit back with two in the eighth end and an error from Norway saw them score only one in the ninth, thus leading 5-4 but handing GB the hammer in the crucial final end.
It looked as though Britain would have to settle for a single and take it into an extra end but Ulsrud made a mistake with his final stone.
That left Murdoch with a chance to score two, which he duly took to the cheers of delight from his team-mates and the British fans who were in the arena.

Sweden's men claimed Winter Olympic bronze after defeating China 6-4 in a dramatic sudden-death 11th end at the Ice Cube Curling Centre in Sochi.
World champions Sweden lost to Great Britain in Wednesday's semi-finals and by beating China avoided finishing fourth for a second successive Games.
China, were in a commanding position in the ninth end, but errors cost them a first-ever men's Olympic curling medal.
The British men will contest for Olympic gold with Canada at 13:30 GMT.
China led 4-3 heading into the last regulation end - the tenth - but would have been in a more dominant position but for a surprise error from their skip Rui Liu
He failed to release his first stone before it passed the hog line meaning it was 'burnt' and annulled - and thus the advantage was handed back to Sweden.
Lui's team-mate Xiaoming Xu bafflingly repeated that mistake in the crucial sudden-death 11th end.
With Swedish skip Niklas Edin placing his final two stones to perfection it gave his nation their first men's Olympic curling medal since the sport debuted at the 1924 Chamonix Games.

Great Britain's men's curlers were denied a historic gold medal following a crushing defeat by Canada in Sochi.
Canada completed a hat-trick of victories dating back to the 2006 Turin Games with a dominant 9-3 triumph.
A win for skip David Murdoch's team would have given Britain more than one gold medal at a Winter Olympics for the first time.
Silver means Team GB have won four medals in Sochi, matching their best ever Winter Games haul in 1924.
It follows Lizzy Yarnold's skeleton gold and bronze medals for snowboard slopestyler Jenny Jones as well as the women's curling.
After winning five and losing four of their round robin fixtures Great Britain's men only made it through to the knock-out phase after coming through a tense play-off against Norway.
Three-time Olympian Murdoch then inspired them to an impressive win over reigning world champions Sweden in Wednesday's semi-finals.
However, the signs were ominous for Great Britain from the opening end where they found themselves 2-0 down, which became 5-1 after just three ends with Greg Drummond, Scott Andrews and Michael Goodfellow appearing to be suffering from nerves.
The interval break after five ends failed to revitalise Great Britain's fortunes as the slipped 8-2 behind before conceding defeat with two regulation ends remaining and the score at 9-3.
'We just never got off to a good start,' said Murdoch. "

The doodle is has a striking and colourful vintage design.
To celebrate the start of the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Google has created a multi-coloured, eye-catching doodle.
The doodle features some of the main sporting events that will be taking place, including skiing, snowboarding and curling.
It appears that the retro-themed doodle has been inspired by the design of the Sochi Games' website, where each sport is represented by a different colour and illustration.
The doodle is completed by a quote from the Olympic Charter just below the search bar which embodies the spirit of the Games, the first of which was held in Chamonix, France, in 1924
The Charter reads: 'The practice of sport is a human right. Every individual must have the possibility of practicing sport, without discrimination of any kind and in the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity and fair play.'
Despite this positive message, there has been much controversy surrounding Russia's human rights' record since Sochi won the bid to host the Winter Olympics. In particular concerns have been raised about the treatment of the country's gay community.
The Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics officially starts today with an opening ceremony at the Fisht Olympic Stadium. It will be running from the 7 -23 February while the Winter Paraly

Google quotes the Olympic Charter, posts a protest Winter Olympics doodle in gay pride colours.
The practice of sport is a human right. Every individual must have the possibility of practising sport, without discrimination of any kind and in the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity and fair play.'
On the day the the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics (the 22nd Winter Olympics) in Russia begins, Google has posted a fundamental principle of the Olympic Charter on its home page along with a doodle showcasing six Winter Olympics disciplines presented in the colours of rainbow flag / pride flag, that represents gay pride.
The extract from the Olympic Charter and the doodle is Google's way of protesting against Russian President Vladimir Putin's scarcely veiled campaign against gays and there has also been much discussion on how Russia would deal with gay athletes during the Winter Games.
The same doodle and the extract has also been posted on Google's Russia home page.
The Olympic Charter is the codification of the Fundamental Principles of Olympism, rules and bye-laws adopted by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). It governs the organisation, action and operation of the Olympic Movement and sets forth the conditions for the celebration of the Olympic Games.
Some 3,000 athletes, a record for the Winter Olympics, will come for 98 events, includ
