He did not win a point in Dimitrov's first four service games, but now he wins four in a row in the sixth, including a brilliant return on the opening break point of the match.

Fery now serving for the opening set. On Centre Court. Against the former world number three. Stuff of dreams territory. Can he get the job done?

Three break points for Fery, 0-40. Now is the chance.

"Come on," is the little cry from Arthur Fery as Dimitrov goes long with a return for another decent hold of serve, to 15 when he was serving to save the set.

Five-five. If Fery can break in the next game he would then be serving for the first set.

Linda Noskova is a set up and now she's broken early in the second.

A powerful forehand down the line is too hot to handle for Madison Keys at the end of a lengthy service game.

The Czech ninth seed is in control after holding to consolidate the break, and Keys will be wondering how this has happened so quickly. She had looked comfortable for much of the first set.

We've had a question in from Kyle in Liverpool about the playing conditions in the hot weather:

With the weather being so hot, it will impact on the grass and it will be firmer. Does this favour players who play deeper into the court and will players have to adjust their game plan to what they maybe came into Wimbledon with?

We put the question to the tennis experts at Hawk-Eye... this is what they said:

When there is sun on the court, the grass will get hotter. This means that the court will produce higher bounces as there is less moisture. Ultimately, this may help a player who likes to sit slightly deeper on the court or a classic hard-court player. However, it can also help a fast server as the ball will retain more speed post-bounce and travel quicker through the air as air density is reduced. A five degree increase in temperature would decrease air density by approximately 2%.

A big cheer from the Wimbledon crowd as, in Dimitrov's fifth service game, Fery finally picks up a first point off his opponent's serve.

The second is not far behind after Fery moved to the net to pile on a bit of pressure.

But from 15-30 down, Dimitrov sends down a few vital first serves to get himself out of a bit of bother. Fery will now be serving to keep the opening set going.

The Hill is packed out and it is glorious sunshine and a Brit is keeping everyone hopeful.

A first shout of "Come on England!" can be heard on Centre Court after several fans take the chance between games to offer Arthur Fery some more encouragement. It gets a few laughs, but everyone is very much focused on keeping home hopes alive at Wimbledon for these next few hours.

There are huge gasps as Fery frames a forehand into the air, and again when he nets to bring Dimitrov to deuce - but they're quickly replaced by loud cheers as the Briton digs in to hold.

The sort of spirit that gets you through with 10 men at the Azteca...

But the first glimpse of danger is seen off by Arthur Fery as Dimitrov can not grab a break-point chance, sending a two-handed backhand into the net for a vital hold.

On Court One, ninth seed Linda Noskova has just snatched the first set against American Madison Keys.

It was on serve at 5-4 with Keys, who had had the only two break points of the set, 40-0 up.

However, she contrived to lose the next five points on the bounce and, from nowhere, Noskova was celebrating winning the opening set.

Dimitrov certainly wants to take advantage of the second serve returns. He's got to take it to Fery and dictate as much as possible.

Trailing 0-40, a leaping smash at the net from Dimitrov keeps the eighth game open, and a misjudged crouching forehand from Fery, which flies towards the crowd, gives the Bulgarian a bit more hope.

Fery tries a sliced backhand and only finds the net, so for the first time this match we're at deuce.

British pair Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool, the defending men's doubles champions, have got a fight on their hands on court three.

They won the first set 6-3 but opponents Petr Nouza of the Czech Republic and Austrian Neil Oberleitner have taken the second by the same scoreline.

It's into a decider in this one. You can watch on BBC iPlayer here.

The other big question about Arthur Fery, will his game translate to different surfaces? On this surface, the ball stays quite low but it's good for him to make the breakthrough in a big tournament like this.

Once more, Arthur Fery is not able to make a dent in Grigor Dimitrov's serve, which has now included four flawless service holds out of four.

Fery is just having to constantly hold on to what he has got, instead of trying to push towards a break of serve. Still, he is holding his own on tennis' best stage.

Arthur Fery is using his quickness to his advantage.

While he has stepped inside following the conclusion of the match, Roger Federer, just as he was on that devastating night for Grigor Dimitrov here last year, is once again present in the Royal Box as the Bulgarian seeks to banish the demons of his previous fourth-round appearance at Wimbledon once and for all.

Dimitrov was nicknamed 'Baby Fed' because of the similarity between his and the Swiss great’s game, not least that wonderful one-handed backhand of his.

But still no sign that Arthur Fery is in any way feeling overawed by this big occasion, as he serves in front of the Royal Box to continue his early progress on the scoreboard.

Another ace from Arthur Fery, his second of the match, helps the Briton to a hold to 15, with him sealing the game as a Dimitrov cross-court forehand goes wide.

Fery would have been hoping for a start like this before the match and he has given himself a good foundation, but now he has to just start to chip away at the Dimitrov serve which has been in fine form so far.

No messing around from Grigor Dimitrov on his serve as he makes it three perfect service games out of three, with Fery yet to take a point off him.

Dimitrov's game includes an ace at 136mph that flew past Fery.
