0944: Aside from the page you're looking at, the BBC coverage kicks in at 1200 BST on 5 live before Sue and the gang get going on BBC Two and HD from 1230 BST, and 5 live sports extra joins the fun at 1300 BST. And the really good news is that via the red button or the video stream on this page (UK only) you can follow the action when it starts at 1200 BST.

From adamjdoherty via Twitter:
"Honestly, I think Murray has had too much of an easy ride to the semis - Rafa will be super confident after beating Soderling."

Will from London via text: "I'd suggest people invest some money in shares in boots (* Other highstreet vendors of nail products are available). Rumour has it their profits are about to sky rocket after brits buy up their stock of fake nails to replace the ones they chewed off while following Murray."

0922: BBC Breakfast catch up with 2001 champion Goran Ivanisevic, just the man we want to see on Wimbledon semi-finals day. Asked if he thinks he would have beaten
Our Tim in their semi if the rain hadn't interrupted play,
the Croatian admits: "Honestly, I don't think so. I didn't know what to do. Luckily we didn't have this beautiful roof then and, after we stopped on the first day, I knew I was going to win because there was too much pressure on Tim." You're not helping, Goran, you do realise that?
0915: All of which leaves us with plenty of time to discuss what lies ahead, so get in touch via text,
Twitter
or
606
to let me know how you're preparing for the big match(es). I had a sneaky day off yesterday and foolishly went to the gym for the first time in a month.
I now feel like an 11th-hour John Isner.

0900: Good morning. I don't know about you but I have this
nagging sense of deja vu.
A British man in the Wimbledon semi-finals, decades and decades and decades since our last finalist, up against the world number one..... come on, god of sport, give us a break.
