Why are Tom Daley’s speedos so small? We know you’re dying to know.

The Olympic diver, who will represent the UK in Rio 2016, has explained the reasons behind his pool attire, which he says is practical rather than performative.

‘They have to be small because everything has to stay in place,’ he revealed on The Graham Norton Show, due to air this evening (20 May).

‘If you’re spinning around the last thing, you want to do is have something come out of place! And when you hit the water you don’t want things flapping about because it would hurt.’

Great weekend down in Plymouth visiting family and training synchro with @dannielgoodfellow 💪🏼

Daley said he is back to training six hours a day, six days a week for his training routine for the upcoming Olympics.

‘It is terrifying that you train for four years just for that one moment. You get six dives and if you mess one up, it’s all over. It’s a pretty cutthroat thing.’

Jodie Foster, Russell Crowe, Ryan Gosling and Greg Davies will also appear on The Graham Norton Show, as well as a performance from gay singers Bright Light Bright Light and Elton John.
