Heading home - Team GB fly out of Rio as they celebrate their most | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
successful games in more than a century. | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
They won a total of 67 medals in Rio - more than in London - | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
putting them in second place in the medal table. | :00:15. | :00:19. | |

A "sporting Superpower" - that's how Team GB are being viewed | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
by UK Sport, after finishing second in the medal table at Rio 2016. | :01:09. | :01:32. | |
Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
after their most successful Olympic Games in more than a century. | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
They finished second in the medal table - behind the United States - | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
with a total of 67 medals, beating their medal haul | :01:44. | :01:45. | |
Their departure follows a spectacular closing | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
After 19 days of competition, the Olympic flame was extinguished | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
at the Maracana Stadium, as Brazil handed over | :01:57. | :01:58. | |
the baton to Tokyo, who'll host the next Olympic games. | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
It is a city synonymous with Carnival, and last night, Rio said | :02:02. | :02:17. | |
goodbye to the Olympics with all of its hallmark colour, noise and party | :02:18. | :02:29. | |
spirit. Tokyo, set to host the next summer games, sent the Nintendo | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
character Superman Rio, or was it their Prime Minister? It was hard to | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
tell. Team GB celebrated their success with red, white and blue | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
flashing shoes, perfect pairing for all their gold, silver and bronze. | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
67 medals including 27 golds represents Britain's greatest haul | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
in over a century. To be able to fly home with medals in our pockets that | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
make us the most successful team ever is something we hope and dreams | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
as we flew out, but it is amazing that it has happened. | :03:13. | :03:14. | |
How did Team GB achieve such success? Funding is key. UK sport | :03:15. | :03:25. | |
targeted ?274 million of lottery cash on 24 sports. Of 28 sports in | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
total in the Games, GB finished on the podium in 19. Just over a third | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
of athletes are returning with a medal. UK Sport's catchphrase is no | :03:39. | :03:47. | |
compromise, a reflection of a targeted investment strategy. Team | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
GB is forced to watch from the sidelines in some sports, such as | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
basketball, which receives no funding. Winning athletes are set to | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
benefit if the dash as the build-up to the next games gets under way. | :04:03. | :04:09. | |
Many of our athletes have tasted and away games, and they go from Brazil | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
to Japan, and there is a real commitment to continue that drive | :04:17. | :04:23. | |
and that success. At around ?4 million per medal, British Olympic | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
success certainly comes with a hefty price tag, but after a golden | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
Brazilian summer, those in control of the finances believe it is worth | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
every penny. Well, Rio 2016 ended spectacularly, | :04:35. | :04:36. | |
but the Games were certainly not without their problems - | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
played out against a backdrop of huge economic turmoil, | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
political unrest as well as anger from many at the amount | :04:42. | :04:43. | |
of money spent on them. And the big question, | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
as always with the Olympic Games, is what will their legacy be | :04:47. | :04:48. | |
for the host country. Our Brazil correspondent, | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
Wyre Davies, reports. As Rio said goodbye to the Olympics, | :04:52. | :05:05. | |
a moment to take it all in. For the last two weeks, the city has put its | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
many problems to one side. Their problems and divisions that cannot | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
simply be discarded and forgotten about. The power of sport as a force | :05:15. | :05:24. | |
for change was typified by Rafaela silver-macro, Brazil's first gold of | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
the Games, a woman from one of Brazil's toughest neighbourhoods. | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
Amazed by her own achievements, and optimistic about what it meant. | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
TRANSLATION: If my medal can help persuade people that the Games are | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
good for Brazil, they are not a waste of money and they have | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
improved the image of the country, that is a good thing. Rio certainly | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
felt like a more confident, safer place during the Olympics, but this | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
is what it took to guarantee the safety of tourist and athletes. | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
There have been almost unprecedented levels of security during big aims, | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
meaning thousands of heavily armed soldiers on the streets. They have | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
kept many parts of Rio safe in the past few weeks, but elsewhere, | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
things have continued just as normal. Almost every day, before and | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
during the Games, there were heavy shoot outs between police and the | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
gangs that control many of Rio's favelas. It was particularly bad | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
here in a sprawling community within sight of the Olympic Stadium. A | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
community almost untouched by the Games. | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
TRANSLATION: For us, they may has well have taken place in London. The | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
Olympics haven't done anything, and we did not feel part of it. We | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
didn't see any investment in the community. But the Olympics did | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
serve as a catalyst to transform some parts of Rio. New | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
infrastructure and previously no go areas revitalised, already being | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
used by thousands of locals. Brazil bet on the cycle of the event as a | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
way of pushing forward a certain model of development, and medal -- a | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
model of transformation. It did benefit the city, but I do think it | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
benefited the majority of the population. There are challenges | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
ahead, not least the forthcoming Paralympics. City and state covers | :07:26. | :07:33. | |
are almost bare. The city can breathe a sigh of relief. | :07:34. | :07:35. | |
And we can speak to our Sports Editor, Dan Roan, who's in Rio. | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
Dan, where does Rio leave the Olympic movement? | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
There's no doubt, I think if you told the IOC and the local | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
organisers three weeks ago that this is how it would have played out, | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
they would definitely have settled for that. These games, a global | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
sports event, were being staged in developing countries for the first | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
time on this continent, it's a political crisis and economic | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
recession, all of the worries over the Zika virus and security, there | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
is a real conclusion that Rio got away with it. It could have been a | :08:13. | :08:20. | |
whole lot worse. There is great relief on the part of the | :08:21. | :08:22. | |
organisers, but there is no doubt that there were empty seats and | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
other issues, such as the challenges when it comes to legacy that it | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
leaves behind. There is a question over the burden that these games | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
play from countries like this. It could force the IOC into some big | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
questions going forward. To the Olympics need to be smaller, cheaper | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
and easier for developing countries to stage? Will be IOC Gophers safer | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
bets in the future? Tokyo has five new sports coming into it, so there | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
is no sign that they are in the mood to become a smaller affair. But for | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
the millions of people watching around the world on television, | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
these games will be fondly remembered, not just for the | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
spectacular backdrop, but that those fantastic sporting moments, | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
especially at King Great Britain, of course. | :09:12. | :09:12. | |
The Government has announced plans to segregate what it calls the most | :09:13. | :09:15. | |
dangerous Islamist prisoners from other inmates in jails | :09:16. | :09:17. | |
in England and Wales, in a bid to stop the spread of extremism. | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
The Justice Secretary set out plans including the removal of extremist | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
books from prison libraries and stronger vetting | :09:24. | :09:25. | |
Our Home Affairs Correspondent, Daniel Sandford, reports. | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
Among the most infamous Islamist extremists now incarcerated | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
in Britain are Anjem Choudary, found guilty last month | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
of supporting so-called Islamic state, Abdulla Ahmed Ali, | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
who led a failed Al-Qaeda plot to blow up multiple passenger | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
jets over the Atlantic, and the 21st of July bombers | :09:48. | :09:49. | |
who tried to attack London two weeks after 7/7. | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
They are just a few of the men who could spread | :09:54. | :09:55. | |
Men who converted in jail include Richard Reid, | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
the shoe bomber, and Nathan Cuffy, who unknowingly supplied the gun | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
for a failed Islamic State attack in London. | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
The new Justice Secretary told me it was now time to keep the worst | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
There is a risk there of those highly subversive individuals | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
being able to collaborate with each other. | :10:20. | :10:21. | |
That is why we are talking about a number of small units rather | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
than a single larger unit, which has been tried in the past | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
and where there have been significant problems. | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
The idea is to create a set of units within prison, | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
special units inside high-security jails like Belmarsh, | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
where a few of the worst extremists can be kept completely isolated | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
from the rest of the prison population. | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
Jamal, not his real name, spent two years in prisons including | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
Belmarsh, where he saw young, violent criminals and drug dealers | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
being quickly radicalised by a hard-core of 20 extremists. | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
There is an Islamic movement in prison. | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
It is not an Islamic movement based upon the beautiful virtues of Islam. | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
No, it is an Islamic movement based upon bullying, | :11:07. | :11:08. | |
But this man, previously a senior London police officer and a Muslim, | :11:09. | :11:17. | |
warns that special units for extremists are a risky solution. | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
Well, the danger is that if you put people into one unit, | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
The danger is that these individuals then want to become the individuals | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
It is very, very dangerous that we have these individuals there. | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
Prisons are full of vulnerable people. | :11:38. | :11:39. | |
And we want to try and ensure that those vulnerable people do not | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
Beyond the proposed special units, all prison staff | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
will now get further counter-extremism training, too. | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
But there are no points to set up special units in Scottish prison is, | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
where Islamist extremism is not seen as a major problem. | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
Two people have been arrested by police on suspicion | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
Officers from Scotland Yard's Counter Terrorism Command have | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
detained a 20-year-old woman and a 16-year-old girl for allegedly | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
planing to travel to Syria to join a proscribed organisation. | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
The leaders of Italy, Germany and France have been meeting | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
in Italy to discuss the future of the European Union. | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
They have stressed the need for giving the Momentum new impetus. -- | :12:30. | :12:38. | |
giving the European Union. The talks between Matteo Renzi, | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande come as European countries | :12:42. | :12:43. | |
try to coordinate their negotiating position, as Britain | :12:44. | :12:45. | |
prepares to leave the EU. They're also expected to discuss | :12:46. | :12:47. | |
the economy, the migrant crisis The first of around 650,000 ballot | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
papers have been sent out today to people who can vote | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
in the Labour leadership contest. Party members will get a say, | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
along with those belonging to unions and almost 130,000 | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
registered supporters. Our Political Correspondent Vicki | :13:00. | :13:00. | |
Young's report contains He's getting backing from some | :13:01. | :13:14. | |
senior Labour figures, but Owen Smith needs to persuade hundreds of | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
thousands of signed up supporters that he'd do a better job than | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
Jeremy Corbyn. Today he made a bold promise, to put them in charge of | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
party policy, and did all he could to distance himself from the years | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
where Tony Blair took New Labour into power. Our party was more | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
interested in good relations with the bankers, with big business and | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
the media than with ABBA grassroots. And he said that the era when Labour | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
members were seen and not heard were part of the past. I will not seek to | :13:47. | :13:54. | |
overturn it what ever my views, but I will seek to influence it, as | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
leader. A warm reception for Owen Smith here in South Wales, but look | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
what he is up against. Last night in North London, thousands turned up to | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
see Jeremy Corbyn. His team say he is inspiring people to join the | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
party all over the UK, and they are confident he will still be leading | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
Labour at the end of this contest. We know that Owen has a good | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
campaign, but we have honesty and integrity, and trust. I think those | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
are things he doesn't have. Labour Party members see that in Jeremy. | :14:31. | :14:37. | |
Labour Party membership is now at its highest since 1979. When Tony | :14:38. | :14:44. | |
Blair won his landmark victory, membership was around 400,000. That | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
nearly halved after the Iraq war in 2003, and the slump continued until | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
2010. Now their arm or than half a million full members, under Jeremy | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
Corbyn. After rows over the rules and who can vote, two thirds of a | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
million people will elect the New Labour leader. A recent surge in | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
those signing up to support Labour has been remarkable, and the party | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
now has more members than any other elliptical party in the UK. That | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
this leadership contest has come up YouTube the divisions over the | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
direction the party should take. Bringing the two sides together will | :15:27. | :15:27. | |
not be easy. Team GB prepare to fly home | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
after their most successful Olympic Games in more | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
than a century. I will be reporting on how the next | :15:35. | :15:49. | |
generation of particular fish -- British Olympic heroes are being | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
spotted sporting glory. American swimmer Ryan Lochte has | :15:53. | :15:54. | |
been dropped by his sponsor Speedo, following the controversy | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
over his false claim that he was robbed at gunpoint | :16:00. | :16:00. | |
during the Olympics. Last year, more than a million | :16:01. | :16:08. | |
migrants arrived in Europe from Syria, Africa and South Asia, | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
sparking one of the biggest crises This year the numbers have fallen | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
but many still try to make Latest figures suggest more | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
than 100,000 people have reached Over the same period, 2,700 men, | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
women and children died. Save The Children says the number | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
of unaccompanied children who've arrived in Italy has doubled over | :16:30. | :16:32. | |
the past year to close to 15,000. Our correspondent Chris Buckler | :16:33. | :16:41. | |
was with a rescue ship when it arrived in the port | :16:42. | :16:43. | |
of Catania in Sicily. Arriving from Africa, both young | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
and old see Europe's wealth. A different world from the poverty | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
and, in some cases, turmoil that But each new face that appears | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
in places like Catania adds to the pressure on resources, | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
and that is particularly true for the children, | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
who arrive all too often alone. It's obvious in the city around this | :17:08. | :17:16. | |
port that many live on the fringes of the system that is supposed | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
to protect them, if not Among the teenagers we found | :17:21. | :17:23. | |
here was Fatah. He travelled by himself | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
from the troubled country of Somalia We're not showing his face | :17:30. | :17:31. | |
because he is only 14. Are there not dangers | :17:32. | :17:40. | |
for you because your mum's not here, Workers from the charity | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
Save the Children were with us when we spoke to Fatah, | :17:46. | :18:23. | |
and they helped to find him But in towns and cities | :18:24. | :18:25. | |
across Italy, that's becoming increasingly difficult, | :18:26. | :18:32. | |
with the reception centres filling up, as boats continue to arrive | :18:33. | :18:34. | |
with vulnerable children. Today there was one girl who was 15 | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
years old, from Eritrea, Many children choose | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
to continue their journeys alone, and this is extremely dangerous, | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
because they are constantly falling at the hands | :18:48. | :18:50. | |
of smugglers and traffickers. Many girls are forced | :18:51. | :18:52. | |
into prostitution in order Keeping a separation | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
between the worlds of children and adults is proving to be | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
a challenge here. There are children who simply leave | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
the reception centres, and there's little the staff | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
there can do to stop them. Europe is starting to struggle | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
to provide the education, shelter and stability needed | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
by the unaccompanied children For refugees and migrants | :19:14. | :19:15. | |
of all ages, home is both something that's been left behind | :19:16. | :19:25. | |
as well as somewhere The go-ahead has been given | :19:26. | :19:27. | |
for a ?7 million research project in the UK to try and help identify | :19:28. | :19:37. | |
Alzheimers disease It's thought there are brain changes | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
for several years before the more obvious signs | :19:41. | :19:48. | |
of the disease become apparent. The former Radio One DJ | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
Chris Denning has pleaded guilty to a series of child sex offences | :19:53. | :19:54. | |
dating back as far as 1969. The 75 year old - | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
who was one of the original line-up of presenters - | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
admitted abusing eleven boys, but denied three charges | :20:02. | :20:03. | |
of indecent assault. An investigation by BBC Scotland has | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
found that the vast majority of new schools built under a private | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
funding scheme are now So-called Private Finance | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
Initiatives allow private companies to take a stake in, | :20:16. | :20:22. | |
build, and then run, 17 schools built under one of these | :20:23. | :20:24. | |
schemes in Edinburgh had to be closed for safety reasons, | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
as Fiona Walker reports. Pupils and teachers are back to work | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
after the summer in Scotland. At 17 schools in Edinburgh, | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
they're back to buildings which had The problems came to light when this | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
wall collapsed into the playground It was really distressing, | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
to be honest, that has made it very, very upsetting for parents, | :20:48. | :20:55. | |
knowing that we trust, when we drop our children off at school, | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
that they are going to be kept safe. We don't want them going | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
into buildings that are unsafe. What surprised parents is that these | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
were relatively new schools. They are also private | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
financed schools, or PFI, which means they are built | :21:13. | :21:15. | |
and managed by a private company. Hundreds have been built | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
across the UK, and now stakes in the projects are bought and sold | :21:19. | :21:20. | |
on financial markets. The whole PFI machine, really, | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
is really a profit machine, a wealth machine, if you like, | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
and there are an awful lot of people making very substantial | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
sums of money out of it, which have nothing to do with, | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
and have no benefit to, Research shown to the BBC suggests | :21:37. | :21:38. | |
that in Scotland alone the vast majority of the PFI schools | :21:39. | :21:48. | |
are at least partially What we don't know is how much | :21:49. | :21:50. | |
money is being made, except for one sale, | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
which included the 17 Edinburgh schools, where we know that one | :21:56. | :21:57. | |
company made what some would call That is a very high profit, | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
but what you've got to look at, in terms of the way the council | :22:01. | :22:11. | |
provided that service, was what happens to the project over | :22:12. | :22:14. | |
the 30 year period. But does it sound like value | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
for money, I mean, given what's happened, a wall has fallen | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
down, does that sound We did a comparison, | :22:21. | :22:22. | |
in terms of value for money, between public procurement | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
and private procurement, and it came out showing | :22:27. | :22:27. | |
that this method provided us So does it really matter | :22:28. | :22:29. | |
who owns your school? Edinburgh City Council says it | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
should have no bearing on safety, but for families, their faith | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
in the system has been shaken. Nobody has really been held | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
accountable for what has happened, in putting so many children's lives | :22:42. | :22:48. | |
at risk, really. The enquiry into the construction | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
failures at the Edinburgh schools will consider whether the private | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
finance scheme contributed If it did, it could change the way | :22:56. | :22:57. | |
things like schools and hospitals And viewers in Scotland can see more | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
on that story in "BBC Scotland Investigates: How safe | :23:04. | :23:13. | |
is my school?", on BBC One A brief look at some of the day's | :23:14. | :23:15. | |
other other news stories. Hundreds of people have observed | :23:16. | :23:23. | |
a minute's silence at Shoreham in West Sussex to mark the first | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
anniversary of a crash at an air A vintage jet came down on a main | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
road outside the show An air accident report is not | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
expected to be published before The owners of an oil rig, which ran | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
aground on the west coast of Lewis, have been given the go-ahead | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
to refloat the vessel this evening. The 17,000 tonne Trans | :23:48. | :23:50. | |
Ocean Winner was blown on to the shores of North West | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
Scotland in severe weather There's been heavy rain | :23:54. | :23:55. | |
in the Yorkshire Dales, flooding one of the longest cave | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
chambers in Britain. The manger at the White Scar Cave | :24:02. | :24:03. | |
said he's not seen such bad A number of roads in North Yorkshire | :24:04. | :24:06. | |
have also been flooded. After the success of Team GB in Rio, | :24:07. | :24:13. | |
the focus is already turning to the next generation of Olympic | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
and world championship stars. Who will they be and how do they get | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
spotted in the first place? Our correspondent Frankie McCamley | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
is at the Lee Valley White Water Yes, and this is where some of the | :24:24. | :24:39. | |
future's Leticia Olympic hopefuls are being spotted for sporting | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
glory, hoping to follow in the footsteps of the kayak bird | :24:44. | :24:46. | |
medallist, Joe Clarke. Some come here for around four hours a day, | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
others fitted around their schooling work, and for some, training has | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
become a full-time job. They are not short of talent here and following | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
Joe's gold-medal win, they are definitely not short of enthusiasm. | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
Just over a year ago, 13-year-old Jack had never been in a kayak. Now | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
he trains his six days a week. He was talent spotted at a nearby | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
school, and he's just one of the many youngsters inspired by another | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
local boy who trains here. Joe Clarke, picking up gold in the men's | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
kayak final for Team GB. It's quite inspiring because it makes you know | :25:29. | :25:31. | |
that someone from around here can get gold and makes you want to get | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
as well. I remember watching it on TV, thinking how amazing it is for | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
where he trains, I train as well and how local it actually is. And the | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
man in charge of is cutting that talent at this club believes Joe's | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
gold is only going to lead to more. It is tangible for them, they can | :25:51. | :25:54. | |
see that if they put in the hard work Joe has done, then it is | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
entirely possible. Joe's legacy has not just spurred on these beginners. | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
His team-mates are also now hoping to represent Team GB in the next | :26:05. | :26:14. | |
limpets. My goals are to medal at Tokyo. I am not that far behind and | :26:15. | :26:21. | |
I really could compete at that level. So the work for 2020 now | :26:22. | :26:23. | |
begins. The devil will be in the detail for | :26:24. | :26:41. | |
you in the next couple of days. Almost Copacabana beach here in | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
northern Scotland earlier today, it has been today a big day of | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
contrasts, as we saw just a few moments ago, flooding across parts | :26:51. | :26:53. | |
of northern England caused by the heavy downpour. This picture taken | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
by Kevin in Cumbria. The downpours have eased a bit and we will keep | :26:59. | :27:01. | |
the contrast for the next few days. They will be hotting up for some of | :27:02. | :27:05. | |
us, but for others it is going to be still quite fresh, and there will be | :27:06. | :27:09. | |
downpours around. That rain has eased for Northern Ireland but still | :27:10. | :27:12. | |
a bit damp and drizzly across western Wales. Turning soggy across | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
Northern Ireland overnight, that rain creeping towards the south of | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
Scotland later on too. Foremost, a dry night, quite warm across the | :27:22. | :27:29. | |
South, quite and murky -- misty and murky. Some early rain across | :27:30. | :27:34. | |
Cumbria clears, damp and drizzly from Northern Ireland, maybe a touch | :27:35. | :27:37. | |
dry early on but rain on and offer much Scotland. Temperatures suppress | :27:38. | :27:43. | |
just in the teens here but for England and Wales, once the sun | :27:44. | :27:46. | |
comes out the temperatures shoot up and we could get close to 30 degrees | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
in the London area. The difference between hot and cold air, a weather | :27:51. | :27:53. | |
front that gets going tomorrow evening and could cause some | :27:54. | :27:56. | |
thunderstorms as part of southern and eastern Scotland particularly | :27:57. | :28:02. | |
during the early hours of Wednesday. A comfortable night across the West | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
but tomorrow night could be quite difficult for sleeping because some | :28:07. | :28:10. | |
southern and southern areas -- southern and Eastern, temperatures | :28:11. | :28:13. | |
staying at 19 or 20 degrees was a warm start into Wednesday, slowly | :28:14. | :28:17. | |
the rain shimmies away, a bit more clout in central areas but a | :28:18. | :28:21. | |
brighter day for Scotland and Northern Ireland, and still that | :28:22. | :28:24. | |
heat across the south-east, 30 is again possible. | :28:25. | :28:30. | |
Team GB prepare to fly home after their most successful Olympic Games | :28:31. | :28:38. | |
in more than a century. The government announces plans for | :28:39. | :28:42. | |
England and Wales to segregate the most dangerous Islamist prisoners. | :28:43. | :28:44. | |
