Team GB moves up to second in the medal table in Rio,

:00:11.:00:12.

after an evening of stunning successes.

:00:13.:00:14.

Max Whitlock makes history - winning Britain's first ever Olympic

:00:15.:00:18.

gold in gymnastics - he then won a second,

:00:19.:00:20.

A German, years and years, and you get about one minute to show what

:00:21.:00:33.

you have been working on. -- for hours and hours in the gym. I am

:00:34.:00:38.

just psyched, so happy. And it is goals. -- and it is gold.

:00:39.:00:44.

And 112 years since golf was last played in the Olympics,

:00:45.:00:47.

Jason Kenny winds the gold medal for the second time. And in the last few

:00:48.:00:57.

minutes, Jason Kenny has won gold in the cycling.

:00:58.:01:02.

Also on the programme: New video, appearing to show the kidnapped

:01:03.:01:06.

Nigerian schoolgirls, is released by the Islamist

:01:07.:01:08.

More bad blood between Jeremy Corbyn and his deputy in advance

:01:09.:01:12.

And Pakistan win the fourth and final Test at Lords,

:01:13.:01:15.

It has turned into Super Sunday at the Olympics in Rio.

:01:16.:01:44.

In less than two hours, Britain won three gold medals,

:01:45.:01:47.

pushing Team GB to second place in the medal table.

:01:48.:01:54.

Max Whitlock won the men's floor exercise to take Britain's first

:01:55.:01:57.

ever Olympic gold in gymnastics - he then went on to win a second

:01:58.:02:00.

The third gold came in golf, with a two-shot victory

:02:01.:02:10.

In the last few minutes, Jason Kenny has won a gold

:02:11.:02:13.

And there are more medals to come - including for Andy Murray,

:02:14.:02:20.

who is playing in the men's tennis final now.

:02:21.:02:23.

We begin tonight with all the latest on the gymnastics, from our sports

:02:24.:02:26.

For every athlete there is a moment where careers are defined. For Max

:02:27.:02:44.

Whitlock, it was historic for an entire generation. Where others

:02:45.:02:48.

faltered, he was immaculate on the floor. Impeccable. Flawless. He just

:02:49.:02:58.

needs to land this tumble. His score of 15.633 would not be bettered. Max

:02:59.:03:04.

Whitlock has made history. A silver and bronze for Brazil proved popular

:03:05.:03:11.

here, too. But after carrying the weight of British gymnastics' hopes

:03:12.:03:15.

for someone, the union flag must have felt some light on his

:03:16.:03:19.

shoulders. This is an historic moment for British gymnastics. The

:03:20.:03:26.

first-ever Olympic champion in the sport, and his best event, the

:03:27.:03:30.

pommel horse, yet to come. Whitlock had just one hour off to come back

:03:31.:03:37.

down to earth. Simone Biles use that time to vault herself into the

:03:38.:03:42.

stratosphere. She makes the impossible not only look impossible

:03:43.:03:47.

but easy. Gold number three from a possible five. Britain's domination

:03:48.:03:54.

on the pommel is extraordinary. Louis Smith was the silver medallist

:03:55.:03:58.

in London who inspired a generation of youngsters to see that gymnastics

:03:59.:04:02.

could be cool. Here, his routine was enough to take the lead and

:04:03.:04:08.

guarantee a medal. But then Whitlock, the Commonwealth champion,

:04:09.:04:12.

World Champion and European champion and now, double Olympian champion.

:04:13.:04:17.

Smith was unable to hide his devastation at silver but his sport

:04:18.:04:21.

thanks. These boys have put British gymnastics on map. Hours into the

:04:22.:04:26.

gym, years and years, and then you get one minute to show what you have

:04:27.:04:31.

been working on. To do it today at the Olympic Games, I am just so

:04:32.:04:36.

happy. After a lifetime waiting for goals, two came along at once. It

:04:37.:04:38.

was well worth the wait. For more on Justin Rose's

:04:39.:04:51.

success in the golf, and all the rest of today's action

:04:52.:04:53.

in Rio, here's Andy Swiss. Some said that golf did not belong

:04:54.:05:02.

in the Olympics. Just try saying that to Justin Rose. For all its

:05:03.:05:07.

critics, it produced a thrilling showdown. Rose level with Henrik

:05:08.:05:14.

Stenson until the final hole, a moment of magic. Stenson crumbled

:05:15.:05:21.

and Rose departed for glory. The first Olympic golf champion for 112

:05:22.:05:25.

years. -- rollers putted for glory. Worth waiting for for Britain. It

:05:26.:05:31.

feels better than any tournament I have ever won. It is so different

:05:32.:05:35.

and unique. The cloud were incredible. It is a cross between

:05:36.:05:44.

golf and a carnival. In the ceiling, gold was guaranteed for Giles Scott.

:05:45.:05:49.

Successor to Ben Ainslie and living up to his example. The title won

:05:50.:05:55.

with racist despair. There was also silver for Nick Dempsey. Elsewhere,

:05:56.:06:02.

the roommates racing for gold in the velodrome, Jason Kenny and Alan

:06:03.:06:09.

Skinner. The best of three and Kenny edged the first. Win a second and he

:06:10.:06:15.

would be champion. Kenny proved unstoppable. His fifth on a big old.

:06:16.:06:20.

Sir Chris Hoy, Sir Steve Redgrave and Sir Bradley Wiggins the only

:06:21.:06:24.

other Britons to have done that. And in the tennis, Andy Murray looking

:06:25.:06:28.

for a place in the record books, as he emerged to face Juan Martin Del

:06:29.:06:32.

Potro for goals. No player has ever won two Olympic singles titles, can

:06:33.:06:39.

Murray make history on this historic day for Team GB? What an evening we

:06:40.:06:46.

are having here. Jason Kenny with that remarkable fifth Olympic title,

:06:47.:06:51.

and in the tennis behind me, it is currently 5-5 in the first set

:06:52.:06:55.

between Andy Murray and Juan Martin Del Potro. Will it be another gold

:06:56.:06:59.

medal for Team GB on this quite extraordinary day? Extraordinary.

:07:00.:07:03.

Team GB's remarkable achievements began in the early hours

:07:04.:07:07.

when Mo Farah retained his ten thousand metres title -

:07:08.:07:09.

In the heptathlon, Jessica Ennis Hill narrowly

:07:10.:07:12.

missed out on gold and afterwards hinted at retirement.

:07:13.:07:17.

Our Sports Editor Dan Roan reports on the overnight action.

:07:18.:07:24.

A special moment. No matter how hard they try, Mo Farah's rivals are

:07:25.:07:33.

simply cannot keep up. No other British track athlete has ever won a

:07:34.:07:37.

third Olympic gold medal. This has now become distance running

:07:38.:07:38.

domination. His win last night, all the more

:07:39.:07:55.

remarkable given his fall in the tent flap. The reigning champion

:07:56.:08:00.

quickly recovered and although the Kenyans made a late charge, Mo Farah

:08:01.:08:05.

surged to decisively. They succumb to the inevitable. Bow to his

:08:06.:08:12.

superiority, Mo Farah wins the gold. Four years on from double gold at

:08:13.:08:17.

London's gold, he has another, and with the 5000 metres next weekend,

:08:18.:08:23.

he is on course for a historic repeat here in Rio. I am not going

:08:24.:08:28.

to focus on it. I am going to switch off and let my body recover. In the

:08:29.:08:33.

final event, the heptathlon, Jessica Ennis-Hill knew she had to beat her

:08:34.:08:40.

opponent by almost ten seconds to retain her title. Jess Ennis, it is

:08:41.:08:43.

going to be very close to her best. Just outside 2.7 eight. And now the

:08:44.:08:56.

clock is ticking. Tiam finished seven seconds behind, close enough

:08:57.:09:00.

for the Belgian to prevail. This morning, after some reflection, and

:09:01.:09:05.

is still hinting at retirement. It is definitely a difficult decision.

:09:06.:09:11.

-- Jess Ennis Hill. I feel confident with what I have achieved throughout

:09:12.:09:15.

my career and this is an amazing occasion. This is my last Olympics,

:09:16.:09:19.

and I think that is why I was so emotional. Greg Rutherford, the

:09:20.:09:23.

other member of the Super Saturday Trujillo, had to settle for bronze

:09:24.:09:29.

in the long jump. This evening, the attention turns to one man, Usain

:09:30.:09:34.

Bolt. The Jamaican hoping to complete an unprecedented hat-trick

:09:35.:09:35.

of Olympic 100 metre titles. Meanwhile in the pool there was yet

:09:36.:09:42.

another gold medal for the American He won his 23rd gold

:09:43.:09:45.

in the 4x100 metre medley relay final -

:09:46.:09:55.

the final race of his Among those picking up

:09:56.:09:57.

the silver was Adam Peaty. Hard to keep up but let's look at

:09:58.:10:04.

the medal table. Almost halfway through Day 9

:10:05.:10:07.

of the Rio Games and there's been a big change for Britain

:10:08.:10:13.

on the medal table. Team GB are now

:10:14.:10:15.

in second place behind the United States after

:10:16.:10:17.

pushing China into third. Britain now has 13 golds,

:10:18.:10:23.

15 silvers and 7 bronze medals And we can speak to our

:10:24.:10:26.

sports editor Dan Roan. He is inside the stadium tonight.

:10:27.:10:37.

Very hard to keep up. A remarkable 24 hours. Yes, you are witnessing

:10:38.:10:42.

one of the greatest days in British Olympic history. If you consider Mo

:10:43.:10:49.

Farah's gold medal in the early hours of today, as it was reviewed,

:10:50.:10:55.

and Andy Murray's tennis match later, we're looking at six or seven

:10:56.:11:00.

gold medals, if you consider Giles Scott, guaranteed victory in the

:11:01.:11:06.

ceiling. That surpasses anything, even at London 2012. The fact that

:11:07.:11:10.

Team GB is vying with Olympic powerhouse like China, with a

:11:11.:11:14.

population of over 1 billion, it is remarkable when you consider that as

:11:15.:11:18.

recently as 1996, 20 years ago, grey Britain managed just eight medals.

:11:19.:11:24.

Anybody who thinks that fantastic haul four years ago was peculiarly

:11:25.:11:29.

down to the fact that we had home advantage, must think again, a

:11:30.:11:32.

reminder of the game change that lottery funding has proven for sport

:11:33.:11:36.

in Great Britain. More drama in the Olympic Stadium at 2:30am your time.

:11:37.:11:42.

The blue ribbon and event of any Olympic Games is the 100 metre final

:11:43.:11:46.

and Usain Bolt, huge amount at stake for him. He will try to become the

:11:47.:11:54.

first man in Olympic history to win the 100 metres at three successive

:11:55.:11:58.

Games. A huge amount at stake for the organisers, given the doping

:11:59.:12:02.

related controversy. The last thing the organisers will want is for his

:12:03.:12:09.

nearest challenger, Justin Gatlin, twice on the receiving end of doping

:12:10.:12:14.

bans, to win such a defining event. All will be revealed later when the

:12:15.:12:17.

world will stop for around ten seconds to watch.

:12:18.:12:23.

The Islamist group Boko Haram has released a video which it says shows

:12:24.:12:28.

some of the schoolgirls who were kidnapped from

:12:29.:12:30.

276 girls were abducted from their school more

:12:31.:12:33.

than two years ago - about 50 appear in the video.

:12:34.:12:39.

In this report from Martin Patience, the images

:12:40.:12:40.

of the girls are obscured to protect their identity.

:12:41.:12:51.

:13:09.:13:11.

have been badly injured in military air strikes,

:13:12.:13:13.

and she calls on the government to release Boko Haram

on the state of our girls. We are left with missed feelings of grief

:13:27.:13:30.

and strength and hope. This mother could not be consoled. As the

:13:31.:13:34.

families came together to watch the latest video. One father said he was

:13:35.:13:40.

shocked by his daughter's appearance, but thankful that there

:13:51.:13:52.

a spotlight on the brutal But this May, renewed hope

for the families, after one Forced to marry a fighter,

pressure to free the girls. It says it is in talks

:14:12.:14:14.

with the militants, but it needs to be doubly sure that it's speaking

:14:15.:14:18.

to the right people. As for the girls' families,

:14:19.:14:20.

the agony and the anger goes on. And while the world focuses

:14:21.:14:23.

on the fate of the schoolgirls, aid agencies warn of a growing

:14:24.:14:26.

humanitarian crisis. Thousands have been killed

:14:27.:14:28.

by the Boko Haram insurgency and more than 2 million

:14:29.:14:31.

displaced by the fighting. This is a conflict far

:14:32.:14:33.

bigger than just Chibok. The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has

:14:34.:14:37.

accused his deputy Tom Watson of talking nonsense about claims

:14:38.:14:44.

that hard left activists are trying to infiltrate the party, in the run

:14:45.:14:47.

up to the leadership election. Tom Watson says there is clear

:14:48.:14:51.

evidence to support his allegations. Earlier today, it was announced

:14:52.:14:56.

that there won't be an appeal to the Supreme Court

:14:57.:15:00.

about whether new members can vote Here's our Political

:15:01.:15:02.

Correspondent Chris Mason. Smiles and pleasantries from Jeremy

:15:03.:15:16.

Corbyn today. I do in a civil war with Tom Watson? Lovely to see. But

:15:17.:15:23.

no answers. The reality is that he and his deputy are peddling in

:15:24.:15:28.

different directions. Those who support Mr Corbyn say that Tom

:15:29.:15:31.

Watson is talking nonsense when he says that hard left campaigners are

:15:32.:15:35.

signing up to take over the party. The allegations are as ridiculous as

:15:36.:15:42.

they are outlandish. The Labour Party has over half a million

:15:43.:15:47.

members. These are ordinary men and women who have come to the Labour

:15:48.:15:51.

Party because they have been bruised and bloodied by the economic crisis.

:15:52.:15:57.

But in a post on Facebook tonight, Tom Watson hits back. He says a

:15:58.:16:02.

small group of left-wing activists do want to seize control. Yes, the

:16:03.:16:07.

Labour Party has made something of a habit in recent months of falling

:16:08.:16:11.

out with itself but this really is something else. When Jeremy Corbyn

:16:12.:16:16.

publicly describes claims by his deputy is nonsense, it is proof that

:16:17.:16:20.

the bitterness and rancour are notching up further still. Little

:16:21.:16:24.

wonder that senior figures within the Labour Party say they have never

:16:25.:16:30.

known it to be this divided. Despite that, the man who once Jeremy

:16:31.:16:34.

Corbyn's job reckons he could bring the party together. I am convinced

:16:35.:16:38.

that there is more that unites us than divides us and I am convinced

:16:39.:16:43.

that if I can put together a programme of people and policies at

:16:44.:16:47.

the heart of the Labour Party, I can get people to rally around it.

:16:48.:16:51.

Whoever finds themselves in charge of Labour next month, the deep

:16:52.:16:53.

divisions will not disappear quickly.

:16:54.:16:58.

Scotland Yard is setting up a team of specialist police officers

:16:59.:17:00.

to target people who commit hate crimes online.

:17:01.:17:06.

The project to tackle so-called trolls will cost more

Thousands of people - including this woman

who was trapped inside her car - have been rescued from

Both the woman and her dog were pulled to safety.

Officials say floods have reached 'epic proportions'.

:17:47.:18:06.

The husband of a British-Iranian woman who's facing trial in Iran has

:18:07.:18:09.

told the BBC that she is being used as a political pawn.

:18:10.:18:12.

Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has been in prison in Iran since April,

:18:13.:18:14.

The Prime Minister, Theresa May, recently raised concerns

:18:15.:18:18.

about the case in a phone call to the Iranian

:18:19.:18:21.

Our correspondent, Caroline Hawley reports.

:18:22.:18:27.

It has been almost five months now since the Ratcliffe

:18:28.:18:30.

Nazanin had taken her daughter Gabriella back to Tehran on holiday.

:18:31.:18:34.

This photo was taken shortly before Nazanin was arrested by Iran's

:18:35.:18:37.

Gabriella had her passport confiscated and is now living

:18:38.:18:41.

Nazanin's job involves organising training for journalists around

:18:42.:18:50.

She has been accused of trying to engineer the peaceful overthrow

:18:51.:18:55.

She is to be tried in a secretive revolutionary court.

This time last year, Britain was reopening its embassy

The country's moderate President is trying to repair relations

:19:09.:19:10.

But in the past few months, several dual nationals

:19:11.:19:15.

Many believe hard liners within the regime are trying

:19:16.:19:21.

to wreck the rapprochement with the west.

:19:22.:19:23.

Do you think she is a pawn in a political game, if so what is it?

:19:24.:19:27.

I think she is definitely - there is definitely a political game

:19:28.:19:30.

going on between different parts of the Iranian Government

:19:31.:19:33.

and Iranian regime, so the revolutionary guard

:19:34.:19:34.

versus the Government, and she's caught up in that.

:19:35.:19:42.

There have been various attempts by the Iranian Government to improve

:19:43.:19:44.

relations with the west, and this is, you know,

:19:45.:19:47.

almost as provocative as possible to stop that happening.

:19:48.:19:58.

Gabriella, filmed here before her mother's arrest,

:19:59.:20:00.

spent her second birthday separated from both her parents.

In the cricket, England have lost the fourth and final Test

:20:44.:20:51.

against Pakistan by 10 wickets at the Oval.

:20:52.:20:54.

Chasing just 40 to win, after England finished their second

:20:55.:20:56.

innings on 253, the tourists completed the rout just

:20:57.:20:58.

after tea on the fourth day, to level the series.

:20:59.:21:00.

How fortunes flutter for England right now.

:21:01.:21:17.

A team headed for world number one has seen things whirl

:21:18.:21:20.

Still 86 runs behind Pakistan, only five wickets remaining,

pressure liberated Moeen Ali and Jonny Bairstow.

:21:29.:21:30.

England were in trouble any way - why not have a go?

:21:31.:21:33.

Pakistan's spinner Yasir Shah held his nerve.

:21:34.:21:35.

Moeen didn't wait for the umpire, he knew.

:21:36.:21:38.

The tourists took part in army bootcamps to get fitter

:21:39.:21:41.

Putting fielders in just the right places.

:21:42.:21:50.

Stuart Broad caught in the web spun by Yasir.

:21:51.:21:53.

England were soon all out, just 39 ahead.

:21:54.:21:58.

This is Pakistan's Independence Day, and the final

:21:59.:22:00.

All such occasions need to finish with something spectacular.

:22:01.:22:04.

The series is drawn, but it feels like their triumph.

:22:05.:22:14.

And that is all from me for tonight. Now on BBC One, time for the news

:22:15.:22:20.

wherever you are. Good night.
