"I ploughed on through yesterday, thinking I'm not going to take a tactical nap," says former English sprinter Katharine Merry - who now presents on BBC Radio West Midlands.
But, when the kick-off was delayed from 01:00 BST to 02:00, Merry says her husband wandered off for a nap.
"Half past one I was still awake, all still bright-eyed, and kind of bushy-tailed, and then I went horizontal and dozed off," she recalls.
"My husband never came back; I woke up at 06:30 and missed everything."
