British rowers Helen Casey and Tracy Langlands have failed to reach the final of the lightweight double sculls.
The duo could only manage fifth place in their semi-final heat, which was won by defending champions Romania.
And Britain's men found life just as difficult in their semi-final heat of the quadruple sculls.
The foursome were way off the pace and suffered the huge disappointment of coming in last, with the Polish crew powering to victory.
