Wimbledon is now in full flow: day four saw showboating, trickery and a shock exit in Rafael Nadal. And the schedule for day five seems like it will be equally entertaining.

Heather Watson, the British No 1, is in action against the 20 grand slam winner and World No 1, Serena Williams. Watson will have her work cut out but she will go into the game knowing all the pressure will be on Williams to add to her outstanding trophy haul.

The men’s World No 1 is also in action. Novak Djokovic will be looking to book his place in the last 32 by defeating Germany’s Bernard Tomic. The pair met in the quarter final stage in 2011 where Djokovic was tested over four sets.

Here, James Olley fills you in on all the day's standout events...
