Helen and Kate Richardson-Walsh
Helen and Kate Richardson-Walsh discuss what it's like to win Olympic gold alongside your spouse, and why some sports seem to be more welcoming to LGBTQ+ people than others.
Kate and Helen Richardson-Walsh relive the thrilling moment they won gold as part of the Great Britain field hockey team in a penalty shoot-out in Rio in 2016.
