Nathan Robertson and Jenny Wallwork made a spirited second-game comeback before going down to second seeds Robert Mateusiak and Nadiezda Kostiuczyk of Poland in the mixed doubles semi-finals.

The England pair lost 21-18 18-21 21-9.

Later in the afternoon Mariana Agathangelou and Heather Olver had to settle for their bronze medal after going down to top seeds Petya Nedelcheva, of Bulgaria, and Anastasia Russkikh, of Russia, 21-18 21-13 in the women's doubles semi-final.

And three-times English National champion and fourth seed Rajiv Ouseph (pictured) lost his men's singles semi-final to second seed and Denmark's 2008 bronze medallist Jan O. Jorgensen 21-14 22-20 despite having led 19-16 in the second game.

That meant England had to settle for three bronze medals while Denmark are chasing gold in both singles through Peter Gade and Tine Rasmussen as well as gold in the mixed doubles with Thomas Laybourn and Kamilla Juhl.

The women's doubles is the only event they cannot win, having had to settle for a bronze.

They are already assured men's doubles gold in a repeat of the Yonex All England final as Mathias Boe and Carsten Mogensen take on Lars Paaske and Jonas Rasmussen.
