Good afternoon and welcome to Newsround. | :00:14. | :00:23. | |
In ten minutes' time, there'll be a parade in this city. The Olympians | :00:24. | :00:33. | |
will be celebrating with this Olympic parade. They'll be | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
travelling to this stage and will be led by a massive model of a lion in | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
red, blue and white. Earlier today, some of the stars had been talking | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
about how whited they are about this parade. -- how excited they are. | :00:45. | :00:52. | |
Watch this. Very excited after Beijing, London and Rio now. To come | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
to Manchester and then to London tomorrow to thank the people that | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
supported us through the summer of the Olympics and Paralympics is | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
going to be exciting. When I got off the plane and saw the people with | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
placards, it's been amazing ever since. I want to thank everybody for | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
the support. Sacrificed a lot of time and training to win the medals | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
while we were away. The come back and see you guys cheering and | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
smiling away, it's an honour for us. Really looking forward to it. So | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
great to be back with everyone and to celebrate what we have achieved. | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
And there are a lot of achievements to celebrate. Both Olympians and | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
paralympians did better than 2012, smashed the medal totals and made it | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
to second in the leaderboard. Let's remind ourselves of some of the best | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
bits. It was a massive summer for our Olympic and Paralympic athletes. | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
Years of training paid off and they smashed it. It started in the | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
swimming where Adam Peaty got the first gold for Team GB. Medal mania | :01:55. | :02:02. | |
had begun. Max Whitlock brought home two golds, six golds were won in the | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
velodrome with Laura Trott leading the way, Mo Farah got to | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
double-double and Nicola Adams defended her title. The hockey team | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
went into the record books. Team GB aced into second place in the medal | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
table. It didn't stop there. From day one, the medals continued to | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
roll in. Kadeena Cox got two golds in two sports. 15-year-old Ellie | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
Robinson stormed to victory in the S Dr 650 metre butterfly. Johnny | :02:34. | :02:38. | |

Dame Sarah storey became the most successful British female | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
paralympian ever after winning three golds. Paralympics GB doubled the | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
golds won four years ago and also finished second in the medal table. | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
It's just started to rain here in Manchester city centre but everyone | :02:59. | :03:01. | |

participate and they keep getting up and going, even if they hadn't done | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
