First up to another of team GB's medal winners.

The ballet dancer who became an Olympic hammer thrower.

Sophie Hitchon broke the British record with a throw

The huge effort took her from fifth place to third,

Well, she joins me in the studio now.

What did it feel like in that moment?

It was amazing. We had put so much effort into the training schedule

that it was great to win a medal. And you did a bit of a dance.

I did. So much hard work had gone into it so it was amazing.

Tell me about dancing because I know you used to do ballet before

switching to hammer. Why did you do that?

I used to do a bit of ballet and I think it helped me get to where I am

today. I did other sports at school like hockey and netball and

transitioned into athletics because of my parents.

How does ballet and your background in that help you with hammer

throwing? Balance and posture. You learn them

from a young age so that helps. What about the future? I know you're

grounded is your biggest fan. He is. You will probably be watching

at home. Tell me about Tokyo.

We get back into training then we have the World Championships in

London next year and then onwards to Tokyo.

Thank you for joining us and good luck.

but there are four main key features when building a robot.

There is no point going into the arena if you haven't

got a weapon because you're not going to do anything

You're going to be fighting flippers, spinners,

We said, right, were going to have the most powerful flipper

there is and build the rest of the robot around that.

It is really important to make sure the armour is

strong and everything is safe and secure for all the more

In fact, one of the robots that we saw in Robot Wars was

In fact, it smashed all over the arena.

Apollo is one of the bigger robots in the competition.

It makes it hard for other robots to grab hold of it

and push us around the arena so we can keep control of the fights.

No matter how big your weapons were, how strong your armour is or

how heavy your robot is, the most important thing for us was to have

We then work out what the best our robot could do

The tactic was to hit them straight on, headfirst, and

It is a massive achievement for us to win Robot Wars and Apollo,

Onto footy and record amount has been spent by British

football clubs this summer - over one BILLION quid!

Last night the transfer window closed with the big last-minute

moves being David Luiz coming back to Chelsea after they sold him to

Arsenal and England midfielder Jack Wilshere has moved

And Newcastle's Moussa Sissoko has joined Spurs.

British number one Johanna Konta is through to the third round

of the US Open but only after this happened.

She collapsed towards the end of the second set when it was really

hot on court and had to take a short break.

But, amazingly, she recovered and was able to get through to

Hospitals in England will have to start

It's after doctors said they won't be coming in to work

The strike will mean lots of appointments

It's because of an argument between doctors and the Government

about how much they get paid and how long they have to work.

It's what a mega storm on earth looks like...

The International Space Station caught these images

of hurricanes making their way across the Pacific
