23/08/2016 The One Show

Hallo and welcome to the One Show with Patrick Kielty, Alex Jones and

Iwan Thomas. We are welcoming, direct from Heathrow, each with a

medal around their necks, 30 of our Olympic heroes.

CHEERING The first on our red carpet, it is

the women's flyweight gold medallist, Nicola Adams! With her,

the superheavyweight medal winner, Joe Joyce. And Josh Buatsi. We've

also got our amazing golden hockey team led by the captain Kate

Richardson-Walsh, Helen Richardson-Walsh and goalkeeper

Maddie Finch. CHEERING Joined by Hannah Macleod, Susannah

Townsend, Alex Danson, Lily Owsley, Georgie Twigg, Sophie Bray, Laura

Unsworth and Crista Cullen. We have the gold winning sailors Hannah

Mills and Saskia Clarke and the kayak gold winners Joe Clarke and

Liam Heath. And from the pool, the double Silver Medal winner, Jazz

Carlin. We have the rowers, Helen Glover, Matthew Langridge, Matt

Gotrel and William Satch with gold medals and Silver Medal winning

Polly Swan and Karen Bennett. We have the one and only gold winning

medallist -- gold-medal winning cyclist Ed Clancy and from the rugby

sevens, Dan Bibby, Phil Burgess and Tom Mitchell winning silver medal

was. Team GB, everyone! Add Silver Medal 's. -- silver medals. We have

to thank them for their performances in Rio and for delaying their return

home to be with us. We are joined by Will Satch, Laura Unsworth, Hannah

Mills and Saskia Clarke and the boxer, Nicola Adams. Nicola, talk us

through the flight. Basically it looked like a party bus all the way

home. Yeah it was, a lot of fun, British Airways did a good job

entertaining us and it was nice to feel appreciated for the hard work

we did in Rio. A long flight, who stuck the place and who faded? I

think I was the first one to fade! Well, you had a special set, I

believe? I flew the flight back with Adam Peaty! All the way. There he is

at the front. One of the brilliant things, previous Olympics apparently

all of the medal winners are meant to be in the seats up front but this

time we had more medal winners than those seats, so how did it work? I

don't know but somehow we ended up and the front, it was amazing. Best

experience ever. I'm looking at the Lady at the end, Laura, I saw a

picture of someone dressed as British Airways cabin crew. 70 extra

bottles of champagne on the flight. Are you responsible for where they

went? Maybe! It was the hockey girls's fault, we had the majority.

We thought we would give the hostess is a rest and do their jobs for

them. I think you did very well. Saskia, we saw a tweet from you with

your luggage yourself and Hannah. Was it a good idea to have all of

Team GB with the same red bag when you got back to the airport? It

looked a nightmare but I think we got lucky because we were taken to a

press conference and our bags arrived there. Then we forgot about

them, actually. Behind you, the hockey girls who were starting the

singing, when you were taking off from Rio, was the singing still

happening whenever Nicola was walking off the plane? I think that

the hockey girls were partying into the night, I think that they win.

They are the hard-core? Yeah. Nicola, first off the plane, we'll

was flying the plane home, Laura was in charge of champagne, the hockey

girls in charge of singing and Hannah and -- Hannah and Saskia

making sure the banks were sorted. Give it up for flying home Team GB

-- the bags. CHEERING Plenty of celebrations on the way

home. The good news is that the celebrations will continue with a

parade in Manchester. You were part of the 20 12th two, can you describe

the feeling of being on the bus -- the tour in 2012. Is it the best

feeling? Yes, fantastic to go away and have so much success, and

sharing it with the nation who gave us so much support, that's what it's

all about. The streets are going to be packed. Job, I heard that as a

tribute to you, there is something special happening? -- Joe. My town

is organising a homecoming for me, which is an honour and they are

going to parade me around in a canoe. They are going to carry you

down the street in a canoe? Six people are going to carry me round

and parade me and hopefully there will be a good reception back home

in stone. Some good Twitter moments coming on. There will be some good

selfies from the top of the canoe. Can I just squeeze in. Helen Connor

you have done this before, you have a parade in Penzance -- Helen, you

have done this before. There is a lot of talk about receiving honours

but you don't think it should be automatic? I feel like bringing the

medals home is the most important thing, that's our job, anything else

is an amazing extra but it isn't something we expect. If it comes it

is a bonus and it shows the country is proud but we want to bring the

medals home and anything else is special. Absolutely. I will swap

with you. At the end, Matt, a golden rower. Great Britain, second in the

world, everybody, isn't that an achievement! CHEERING

When you were out in Rio, were you feeling the pressure in terms of

Japan? I think we were focused on our own event and really focused on

winning. When the first medal came in it started rolling and

snowballed, when the floodgates opened it kept going and before we

know it we were climbing up the table and by the end, the last

couple of days we were pushing to really try and keep that second

place, which is an amazing achievement. When you go to Tokyo,

do you think that there will be a lot of pressure on Team GB? Yeah it

is going to be hard, the Chinese won't be happy that we have taken

their spot in the second place so they are going to push pretty hard.

Nobody thought we could surpass London and we have done. I think

that the sky is the limit. Definitely. I have to say, you look

very fresh. Have you had a shower yet, have you been home? I have had

a shower but I haven't had any sleep. You all look superb.

Brilliant. Well, we've got 30 medallists with us from boxy,

hockey, sailing, kayaking and rugby and of course we are going to hear

about the highs and lows -- boxing. And the four years of training

leading up to the Olympics. First it is only right, shall we do it one

more time, shall we look at some more golden moments? Here we go.

COMMENTATOR: He is bringing it home, this is brilliant, he has

obliterated the world record. Olympic champion, Adam Peaty of

Great Britain. Joe Clarke of Great Britain is the Olympic champion. It

is gold, pure gold, they've done it. It is a golden start for Great

Britain. Great Britain, Glover and Stanning, they are history makers.

They are the Olympic champions. It was never in doubt. Well done, Great

Britain, from the gun to the tape, the entire way. The awesome foursome

have done it. Out of this world. Historic moment for British sport as

well. Max Whitlock, double Olympic champion. Justin Rose of Great

Britain takes Olympic gold. Laura Trott is Britain's most successful

female Olympian of all time. It's a golden hat-trick in Rio for Jason

Kenny. Andy Murray is a double Olympic gold medallist. Giles Scott

winning Great Britain's fifth Olympic gold-medal in the men's

heavyweight class. A glorious golden double four Alistair Brownlee. Gold

medal, Hannah Mills and Saskia Clarke. The Welsh wonder striking

gold again. Nick Skelton, a big start, taking gold for Great

Britain. Extraordinary performance. Great Britain, the history makers,

the hockey history makers. Liam Heath, the most successful British

Olympic paddler of all time. Nicola Adams with a triumphant roar, being

crowned Olympic champion for the second successive time. Mo is going

to get gold for Great Britain again. The double double, four Olympic gold

medals. They can't get past Mo So many fantastic moments, but

Friday nights, between Nick Skelton and these girls, the hockey girls, I

was on the floor! Is so were many others. So emotional.

Congratulations, Kate, as the captain, after 13 gruelling years

you have got the gold, after bronze in London which was fantastic. You

stepped on the plane not knowing how it was going to go, but you have

stepped off having inspired many young girls. How different was

stepping off the plane compared to when you got on? I was so emotional,

it has been the most epic two weeks of our lives. We hope we have

inspired youngsters and older people do go out and have a go. You

absolutely have to. You got to carry the flag. Yeah. It was epic, the

weather was truly British, rain and wind. We could see people with

umbrellas and I thought hang on, this is supposed to be Rio. The

Copacabana, what happened? It was good, standing with the flag,

representing Team GB. Every athlete has done very well, whether you

medal or not, everybody gave everything. Helen, you scored one of

the winning penalties -- medal. How did you cope with the pressure? I

don't know anything about hockey but I was on the edge of my sofa. Quite

relieved it went in. I knew that if we got a couple of goals, then Maddy

would save at least a couple of theirs. We had a shoot out

competition against Dutch in the Europeans and I think they were a

bit afraid going into the shoot at. Maddy, you had the best, it is

written on your water bottle, the same thing that we have on the

bottom of gin and tonics. What is it? Stay big? We can write that on

it tonight. How do you relax in a penalty shoot out? You just keep

looking at these guys, you forget about the millions of people

watching and you just imagine you are back at Bish, doing the

training. You train for those moments -- Bisham. Really confident

going into it. Amazing because you didn't make the last Olympics, this

is your first and you were absolutely great. A lot of girls

will be interested in getting into a team like you guys. How do you go

about it, what's the best way? Go to your local hockey, wherever the

nearest place is, they can give you eight stick in your hand, get used

to what it feels like -- a stick. That is what we did and now we are

here with the ultimate around our necks, it is really that simple. You

have got one. This is the thing, you have been together for so long, what

is it going to be like when you finally say goodbye and go home?

Really emotional, we were just saying that we don't know what to do

with ourselves because we are used to being together 24-7 for the last

three weeks and we won't know what to do. It will be so quiet! Speaking

of quiet, I need to find out who is the lead singer because... Where is

she? Someone is always in a chorus of singing "Free from desire!" Why

that song? I don't know, the crowd were so good, we had so much family,

they started it and one of the boyfriends had a drum and it became

the song of that game and then the song of every night and then the

song on the plane. It is a good chance. It is going to be the song

of every reunion that you have, even when you are old! Because you are

superstitious, that has to be your song for life now. Girls, thank you

so much, it is a joy to have you with us. You have inspired so many

young girls, and older ones actually! We are going to your Mac

now. The water now, Saskia and Hannah, silver in 2012, can you

believe you are in London with a gold medal? -- going to Iwan. By

donor when it will sink in. It isn't a dream -- I don't know when it will

sink in. It is an adrenaline rush, being on the plane and seeing our

families again that we have missed for a month, it is so amazing, I

can't begin to describe it. In Rio, how did you get up for the last day,

you knew that as long as you didn't sink, you were gold medallists, how

did you prepare? Hanna checked the boat about 20

times. We just went through the normal routine. We just had to go

out and do it and get through the race. Luckily it was great. Well

done, everyone. Brilliant. And a man who had big shoes to fill, my heart

was in my mouth, after the first day you were in 17th place of 23. What

went wrong? I just had a shocker on that first race. Fortunately I had

another and I pulled my socks up and ended up winning. If anyone wants to

get into sailing at home, what can they do? There are local sailing

club is all around the country, just find one of those. There are many

beginners courses. It is a great sport, not that well known but give

it a go. And do they have to be as tall as you are? No, you just met

Hannah! Good point. Joe, for me your celebration was one of the best. On

paper you were not meant to win? It is always good to defy the odds. We

heard about your celebration, you have come back to London Olympic

champion, and you will be walking through the town. I think it is

sinking in, I have had a bit more time to get my head around it,

finishing early on. Stepping off the plane was getting back to reality,

the crowd reminding me what it was like to be on top of the podium

again. Have you been having early nights? Obviously! Correct answer! I

love the gym, how can I get shoulders like that! The strength

programme, what we put into the programme, it is a crucial part of

it. We have gone for strength to weight ratio. And you have come home

with extra weight around your neck, two medals. You dream of it but

having them hanging round your neck is just amazing. Is there enough

time for me to get my shoulders big enough? I hope so.

Back to you. Who can forget Adam Peaty's grandmother, she became

famous watching her grandson become the 100 metre breaststroke champion.

And what about the families of other Team GB members? We have been to

meet some of those who watched from home.

I'm the father of Jack Laugher. I did not go to Rio, my wife and

daughter and her friends did. I preferred to be at home because I am

quite nervous. I preferred to stay and watch it on the telly with our

feed the dog. The first competition was Synchro, Jack and Chris

together. It was something I looked forward to for four years. It

suddenly hit me just how big this was. I just burst into tears. It was

just all the pressure, the expectation that had built up over

such a long time. It is gold for Jack and Chris! The memory of the

whole event was seeing Jack kneeling down just in tears, pouring out of

him. When he comes to CS he will be bringing medals. Our boys, Jack

Colson! -- when he comes to see us. Jack calls them. Tonight all the

family is here and so excited. I spoke to my daughter last night and

asked how she was. A big moment, the semifinal. 50 seconds to decide. The

headshot. Commiserations. I am in shock at the moment. It is OK, it is

fine. We wanted gold but we will go for bronze. There she is! Cracking

shot. There is another one. Very proud of the anchor. Now she is a

bronze medallist in the Olympics. -- Bianca. My name is Meg Barker. In

the lead up to the race I was more nervous than Eleanor. She seemed to

handle it really well, just enjoying the experience. What an Olympic

final we have on our hands. I watched Eleanor here in my house in

Manchester. When it came on I was not relaxed, I was so scared! It is

going to be a ride to glory. I could not sit still, I was pacing around

the living room. My sister went up to the crowd and my family was

there, I burst into tears. I never cry but I cried my eyes out. I just

wanted to be there and celebrate with them.

Seeing Eleanor on the podium getting the medal was surreal. It was 12

years ago this week we had our first session together and never thought

it would be like this. We just did it for fun. I have never seen her

smile like that, I could tell how happy she was. It makes sense that

the supportive friends and families were key as well as the hard work,

obviously, to the success of Team GB. Jazz Carlin, congratulations.

You paid tribute to your father, saying he started you off when you

were little. What age was that? As soon as I could get in the water,

from a baby, I was never afraid. He used to take me every week. So I

have a lot to thank him for. And your mum and dad managed to make it

over to support you. Was it more or less pressure to have them there? I

always like to see them in the stands, my dad always raised in a

Rangers shirt! It is nice knowing that they're there. They have been

there throughout Myhill career. And your dad take some credit, he said

it was his lucky shirt that did it! It was definitely not! He can get

rid of that! And fact of the day, your mum cannot actually swim. My

mum doesn't like swimming, she has never been comfortable in the water.

On holiday I tried to get her in but she's not a big fan, it was my dad

who got me into swimming. You have trained so hard, what was the food

that you dream does after all that? I'm missing my mum and cooking, I

just a nice home roast dinner. As soon as I finished completing it was

onto the pizza and ice cream. All the people in Swansea are thrilled.

Thank you so much. Now then, most decorated Yorkshiremen, Ed. It is

nice to know. You said you could not believe it that you were mobbed when

you got off the plane a few days ago. When you're out there was it a

bit like being in a bubble? Absolutely, you have no idea what is

going on back home. You just get an inkling, people saying well done on

Twitter. You kind of expected at the home Olympics, in London. Out there

Eurojust in a bubble and have no idea. As soon as I got off the

flight there were 30 paparazzi. It is something we never experienced

before. Well you will get no peace now, all these people are going to

follow you! Your heroes! Now rugby, no one expected this result.

Brilliant. Silver. You did so well against Argentina, and against South

Africa. My husband is New Zealand, can you imagine. But your parents

were there. I was lucky, my mum and dad, my sister and girlfriend and a

few mates were out as well, great travelling support. It was pretty

awesome having them. And your girlfriend, or fiancee, was eight

months pregnant. Were you not worried that the silver would bring

on an early baby! Just a bit! With that Argentina match going to extra

time. She said if I go into labour it is your fault! She was happy for

me but also panicking a bit at the same time. A silver medal and

shortly a baby, what a month for you! And Phil, you have already had

a party thrown for you in Loughborough. What was it like to

stand on the podium and still hear the national anthem? It was a

surreal experience. We talked about at the whole time, what we wanted to

aim for, but getting up there, I was lost for words and I still am. I

cannot really see it was a great experience, it was phenomenal,

getting to sing the national anthem and all that, just to think this is

really incredible and I loved every minute. The boys would agree that

everyone has done a sterling job. Beyond brilliant. And Patrick is

with the boxers, also doing a sterling job. The safest man in the

UK standing beside the GB boxers! Come on! We have got Nicola, Josh,

and Joel. Nicola, what an amazing achievement. Has it sunk in, first

British boxer to win back-to-back in 92 years, double Olympic champion.

You are now back home, how does it feel? It feels amazing. It has been

a long four years and it has been tough. I had a shoulder operation,

ankle injury, and in the past five months I became European, world and

double Olympic champion. So I completed the Grand Slam titles. The

most accomplished amateur boxer in Britain that we have ever had.

Whenever we see you, we saw you in 2012 as Olympic champion and we just

assumed that you would go to defend the title but it was really tough.

It was really tough, the girl I was competing against in the finals was

a three-time world champion. The girl in the semifinals was a

five-time world champion and Olympic silver medallist. I had some tough

competitions. I just have got that desire and will to win and I work

hard in the gym, I listen to the coaches, and never give up. Guys,

were you watching when Nicola won a match? Josh, you're the first in the

team to take a home. It was pressure off, but the support was great. When

Nicola was boxing we were all screaming our heads. All supporting

each other. Overall the team spirit was good. I'm not the only one in

the country, but I think that Joe was robbed. You landed some many

punches. These statistics do not like, I put 110% in and thought I

would get the nod at the end. But it wasn't to be. The good thing is that

you're guaranteed a ticker tape through London. Who is your trainer?

Sadiq Khan. They will put a word in and you are -- you will have your

ticker tape reception. Sounds good! And what other for tonight? You

don't have to make the wait any more. -- weight. A few drinks. Helen

Glover, you do find it your London title but you were quite late to the

sport? -- you defended in London title. I had never tried rowing

before and they tested my fitness and looked at my height and put me

into it. You're not the tallest. I'm quite small for this board, it takes

all shapes and sizes, anyone could have a go. Karen, this young lady is

getting married soon. You'll attended a hen do in Brazil, any

gossip? We had it all well organised, everything planned out

and someone forgot all the Games in the taxi. So we had to make them up

on the spot. One of those was when you say a vegetable without showing

your teeth. I'm not going to do it! Then every time a waiter came over

with were saying, here is the stripper! But there was none. Well

done, the first team in history to come back with a medal. Matthew, you

are Polly's boyfriend, she got silver medal before you, did you

feel pressured to bring back the gold? Luckily we were on the water

at the time and had no idea how they were getting on. We saw them at the

start and they got off slowly, but we focused on our own race. I only

found out what happened later. It was nice to see them over on the

podium. And did anyone lose a forfeit? She has got to do the

house-cleaning for the next year! I'm not allowed, I always do a bad

job! Well you do a great job for Great Britain, well done. You're all

big lads. The average man, how much do you eat? Last count was about

6000 calories on an average day. We do put it away. The Cox also eats a

lot. You eat and drink a lot, you either party animals! Well done out

there. Fantastic. Thanks to all our Olympic heroes. And good luck to all

the Paralympians in the next couple of weeks. I'm going out there too.

What a show it has been tonight. I'll be heading to Edinburgh

for a series of shows from the Festival, where we'll be

bringing you an exclusive look A proper divorce is built on

a solid foundation of hate. A proper divorce is built on

a solid foundation of hate.
