Good morning.

I'm Jenny, you're with Newsround.

And after day one of the Rio Olympics,

Britain already has a new world record in the swimming pool.

But on an emotional first day, there was also disappointment

as some of Team GB's brightest medal hopes failed in their bid

for Olympic glory.

Ricky is in Rio and has all the details.

Hello from Rio, Ricky here.

Day one is done and it has certainly thrown

up a few surprises.

It's been really hot today here in the Olympic Park,

temperatures have reached more than 30 Celsius.

It is so hot!

But that's enough about that, let's talk about

the sport.

In the aquatic stadium, Adam Peaty, who is only

21 years old, broke a world record.

Yep, he swam his heart out

in the men's 100 metres breaststroke.

He's now qualified for the final.

Tomorrow I'm hopefully going to move on a bit more.

I feel there is something more in the tank

but I want to save myself for that and

hopefully, you know, get that investment of all that work

I have done these past seven years.

So many people congratulating me there.

It is crazy and that is what it's all about, the Olympic experience.

Adam's roommate here in Rio, James Guy, didn't pick up

a medal in the 400 metres freestyle.

Hannah Miley missed out on a medal in the women's individual

400 metres medley.

There was some disappointment for Team GB in the

cycling as Chris Froome, who only recently won the Tour de France,

was unable to pick up a medal here in Rio.

And in judo, Team GB's Ashley McKenzie fought back

the tears as he narrowly lost by a single point.

Now, what I love about the Olympics is that it always throws up

some amazing stories.

Vietnam have never won a gold medal before but that has

all changed.

On Saturday, they won their first ever gold so imagine how

they are celebrating in Vietnam right now.

Plenty more drama to look forward to.

We've got fencing, hockey, and even more swimming

as the Olympics continue.

Brazil!

Thank

Thank you,

Thank you, Ricky.

And we've been asking what you're looking forward to.

Jess in London says she's looking forward to the swimming

and athletics!

And Carys says she'll be watching the gymnastics so she can use it

to learn some skill herself.

Thanks for those, get yourself online and let us know what event

you can't wait to see at Rio and who you'll be

cheering on from Team GB.

From record-breaking athletes to the world's longest aircraft now,

coming out of its hangar for the first time, ready

for its first flight.

Airlander is part plane, part airship, part helicopter

and cost ?25 million to make.

More tests are needed before it takes to the skies.

The date of its first flight hasn't been announced yet.

But that's all from me for now, Newsround's back

right here at 11.55.
