Leah here with all you need to know to kick start your day.

:00:00.:00:00.

We chat to superstar rowers Heather Stanning and Helen Glover.

:00:07.:00:16.

More sport is on the way - just a week to go until

:00:17.:00:20.

And find out why camels are for sale.

:00:21.:00:22.

So, first up major, excitement in the studio today.

:00:23.:00:33.

We're joined by Team GB rowers Heather Stanning and Helen Glover,

:00:34.:00:36.

who won gold at this summer's Olympics in the women's pairs.

:00:37.:00:39.

They'd won gold four years ago at the Olympics in London

:00:40.:00:41.

and successfully defend their title in Rio this summer.

:00:42.:00:52.

Major congratulations, girls. What does it feel like to finally have

:00:53.:00:58.

that gold medal and watch those pictures of you crossing the line?

:00:59.:01:04.

It is a massive relief. It shows that four years of hard work has

:01:05.:01:11.

been worth it. Can we have a look at your medals? It is the best chance

:01:12.:01:16.

now to show them off after all that hard work. Does it feel worth it,

:01:17.:01:23.

now you have got them? Definitely. They are similar to the London once.

:01:24.:01:28.

I brought the London one because my lovely fiancee Steve Backshall

:01:29.:01:39.

dropped mind yesterday. We are a big friend of Steve Backshall, CBBC

:01:40.:01:44.

presenter. Before the rowing, he was very emotional. Can we have another

:01:45.:01:45.

look at that clip. I am going to cry like a baby. All

:01:46.:02:01.

those mornings, getting up. It was about coming here and defending the

:02:02.:02:05.

title. They have just been unbelievable.

:02:06.:02:09.

We absolutely love Steve, but what was it like having him there and

:02:10.:02:16.

knowing he was behind you 100%. It was amazing. You see how much it

:02:17.:02:21.

means to our friends and family. It is no wonder they get emotional

:02:22.:02:26.

because they have seen how much we have trained and tried and they know

:02:27.:02:31.

how much we put into that race. It's such a relief that is why they are

:02:32.:02:36.

so emotional. You are inspiring the next generation of. In your

:02:37.:02:41.

yearbook, some of your schoolmates said you would win an Olympic medal.

:02:42.:02:49.

Weirdly, they saw something I did not know. We had people most likely

:02:50.:02:55.

and they said I was most likely to win an Olympic gold, despite never

:02:56.:03:00.

having sat in a rowing boat. Such a big achievement for both of you.

:03:01.:03:06.

Tokyo 2020, you're thinking about whether you compete? Four years is a

:03:07.:03:13.

long time and it is a lot of commitment. It is not just us, our

:03:14.:03:18.

friends and family supper when we are training. We need to make the

:03:19.:03:22.

right decision. What if you don't, you are going out with a massive

:03:23.:03:25.

achievement. Thank you very much. Next, there's just one week left

:03:26.:03:28.
