19/08/2016 Victoria Derbyshire

It's Friday, it's 9 o'clock, I'm Chloe Tilley in for Victoria -

And 'lightning Bolt' is still the fastest man

Jamaica's Usain Bolt is now just one final away

from the "triple triple" - three golds from three

I am getting older, I am not as young and fresh but it is just one

of those things. I am excited that I got the gold medal. That is the key

thing. Jade Jones retains her

Olympic Taekwondo title. I am Mark Cavendish back in London

with my silver medal to talk about what it is like to represent Team

GB. John O'Neill, the man who has been

ordered to give police 24 hours notice before he has sex,

talks to us exclusively about why he's been reduced to living

in the woods and whether the ban It is not as much of a culture shock

for me as it might be to somebody else. I have no control over what

happens and I am not optimistic. We also want to hear from you this

morning if you let your children Or maybe you would never

encourage your under-age Do get in touch on all the stories

we're talking about this morning. Use the hashtag Victoria live

and remember, if you text, you will be charged

at the standard network rate. Let's get the latest

on the Olympics. Quite frankly, did we have any doubt

at all that Usain Bolt was going to do this? Well, you would not bet

against them. We really have to tip our hats to Usain Bolt. Another

incredible performance for him. We may never see an athlete like Usain

Bolt again. He won the 200 metres in 19.78 seconds, meaning he is the

first person to win Olympic gold over 100 and 200 metres at three

straight Olympics. The 29-year-old says that maybe his final race of

the distance. If Jamaica when the relay tomorrow morning, he will

record an unprecedented treble trouble, meaning his ninth Olympic

gold medal. He has won every Olympic final he has appeared in. Spare a

thought for Adam Gemili, also in that race and who finished fourth.

He missed out on a bronze medal by two thousandths of a second. He said

he was gutted after words, having gone all the way through four years

of training, to miss out by such a small margin. By contrast those

emotions with those of Jade Jones, another Olympic tae kwon do gold

medal for her. It came in the under 57 kilograms category. A superb

display. She beat her biggest rival in a tough final. But the

23-year-old took it 16-7. Two head kicks in the final round sealing the

gold medal. She is only the third British e-mail to retain an

individual title after Charlotte Dujardin and Laura Trott. Let's hear

what she had to say. I didn't actually realise how much pressure

it would be. Until today, I thought, it is a lot of pressure. I put

pressure on myself. I know I am the best but in tae kwon do it does not

always work like that. I wanted to win so much. I have trained so hard

for four years. I just wanted to win and to finally do it was amazing.

And it was not just Jade Jones, you can always rely on the Brownlee

brothers. A fantastic performance from them. They were very close on

the swim and the bike but Alistair pulled away during the running. He

was able to walk over the line, in fact. And he shared a moment of

congratulation, but also exhaustion, as you can see, with his younger

brother, after the finish line. Let's hear what they had to say

after their amazing 1-2. This year, training has been so hard. I have

finished so many sessions basically trying to keep up with Johnny. I

have hardly been able to sleep at night because my legs hurt so much.

And then getting up the next morning, dragging myself out of bed

and doing it all over again. Does he always complain? I love it, it is

what I love doing. A third gold for Team GB 24 hours later in the

ceiling. Anna Mills and Saskia Clark, they had to wait an extra day

because there was no wind on the lagoon. But the moment came and they

relished it. All they had to do was finish their race in the 470 sailing

class. They improved on their second-place four years ago at

London. Add that to a silver for John Scofield, and a first badminton

medal in the men's doubles for Marcus Ellis and Chris Langridge.

More to come, what to look forward to. The women's hockey team will go

for gold, taking on the double defending champions, the

Netherlands, in the final. It starts at nine o'clock this evening. That

will be on BBC One in full, the first Olympic final for the women.

They looked in strong form as they beat New Zealand in the semifinal.

And Nicola Adams could become the first British boxer to retain an

Olympic title for 92 years. She will go in the final of the women's

flyweight competition, either gold or silver for her. That fight will

be on Saturday evening so fingers crossed that Team GB do well over

the next few days. And we will be talking about Nicola Adams over the

next half-hour. Let's get a summary of the day 's news.

A boy has died after being bitten by a dog in Halstead,

A 29-year-old woman has been arrested for allowing a dog to be

The United States Olympic Committee has apologised to the organisers

of the Rio Olympics, and the people of Brazil,

for the behaviour of a group of swimmers.

The four, who include the gold medallist Ryan Lochte,

Brazilian police say they lied to cover up

Gold-medal winners leaving the Games in disgrace.

Swimmers Gunnar Bentz and Jack Conger were questioned

for four hours over charges that they and two teammates

vandalised a petrol station and then falsely claimed they had

At a Games when crimes against athletes have caused

concern, the fake story has made people in Rio angry.

It was this man, Ryan Lochte, seen here winning gold for the US

200 metres relay team, who claimed they had been mugged

by robbers posing as police officers.

But the story unravelled when police studied CCTV pictures.

What really happened, they said, was that a drunk Ryan Lochte

and three others stopped to use the toilet at a petrol station

but when it was closed they lost their temper, smashed

A security guard then pulled a gun on them and told them to calm down

Footage from the athletes' village saw them returning in good spirits

Team USA has released a statement saying:

Lochte returned to the US on Monday where reaction has been

and threatens to overshadow all his achievements in the water.

A senior member of the International Olympic Committee, Patrick Hickey,

has temporarily stepped down after being arrested in Brazil over

the suspected illegal sale of tickets for the Rio Games.

Mr Hickey, who's from Ireland, has also stepped aside from his role

as president of the European Olympic Committees.

Brazilian police claim he was involved in a scheme

to pass tickets to touts, who sold them at inflated prices

Yesterday we heard calls for a post Rio Olympic Games in Britain.

Support is growing and Sadiq Khan says he is keen for a parade to take

place. You will be speaking to the government and Olympic sports chiefs

to find the best way of celebrating the achievements of British

competitors. A man under a court order to tell

police 24 hours before he has sexual contact with anyone for the first

time, will today find out if the legal direction will be

extended for up to five years. John O'Neill, from York,

was cleared of rape last year, but North Yorkshire Police asked

a judge to impose an interim Mr O'Neill says it is

so wide-ranging that he is unable A district judge at York Magistrates

will now decide whether to lift The Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn,

has declined to say if he would give military support to a fellow NATO

country if it were In the latest leadership debate

with rival Owen Smith, Mr Corbyn said he wanted a world

where there is "no need" to go to war - he also emphasised the

importance of diplomatic solutions. Owen Smith said the NATO treaty

requires all members Half of parents with children under

the age of 14 allow them to drink alcohol at home,

according to a new survey. The research, by a leading insurance

company, spoke to more than 1,000 people and found that many of them

were ignoring medical advice. It also found that a third

of parents with children under 14 used alcohol as a bribe

to encourage good behaviour. The UN has finally acknowledged

that it contributed to a cholera outbreak in Haiti in 2010 that

killed around 10,000 people. The United Nations had always denied

any responsibility for the epidemic, despite scientific studies

repeatedly showing that Nepalese UN troops were the source

of the disease. However it still says it's protected

by diplomatic immunity from claims for compensation

from victims' families. The International Paralympic

Committee will reveal more details later about the financial problems

facing the Games. Overnight, Brazil's President's

Chief of Staff said funding for the Paralympics in Rio

would be guaranteed. Our disability correspondent

Nikki Fox reports. In just 19 days, the Paralympics

will get under way in Rio. But instead of excitement,

there is uncertainty. Vital travel grants have not yet

been paid to athletes around the world, putting some

countries at real risk of not I don't think the IPC has ever faced

this situation in the 56 year history of the Paralympic Games,

especially with 19 days to go. Even with additional funding

that we have been promised, we will still have to look

at how we can make cuts. A court order that prevented more

public money being spent on the Paralympics

has now been lifted. However, that injection

of ?56 million is still not enough. We've worked just as hard

as the Olympians for the same British athletes like

Jordanne Whiley aren't worried about getting to the Games,

it's what happens or doesn't happen When I get to Rio, I want to be able

to play against everyone that has qualified and I think

if people didn't go, if nations didn't go,

I think the nobility of the Games The Olympics haven't

exactly been a sell-out. But with ticket sales

for the Paralympics at just 12%, it's looking like we might be seeing

even more empty seats. Around a hundred water voles

are being released into the wild They were once commonly found

in the British countryside, but are now one of our

most endangered species. Ecologists from the National Trust

will release the rare mammals into the waters of Malham Tarn,

England's highest freshwater lake. That's a summary of the latest BBC

News - more at 9.30. So another amazing day at Rio

and over the next two hours we'll have plenty of reaction

to Usain Bolt's latest win and the continued

success of Team GB. As we've been hearing, our tally

of gold medals now stands at 22, thanks to Jade Jones's

win in Taekwondo. We'll also be speaking to former

Olympians Diane Modahl and Derek Before that we're going to hear

from Mark Cavendish. Here's a reminder of the moment

he finally won an Olympic medal Mark Cavendish scoops up the final

point on offer which makes sure that he has the silver medal for Great

Britain. After all the effort and after all the Olympic heartache,

Mark Cavendish as an Olympic medal. It is a silver one and it is a

richly deserve one. Mark Cavendish! So, congratulations first of all and

welcome back. Relief, happiness, how are you feeling about that amazing

silver medal? I am really happy with that. It is my third Olympics and I

have finally got a medal. It took a lot. I was talking yesterday and it

was hard to believe that just a few weeks ago I was writing in the to

France, and then it completely changed and I was in the velodrome,

competing in the Olympics. It is so different, in just a couple of

weeks. Representing Great Britain is such an honour. And the Olympics is

the biggest thing, the best way to do that. To come away with a medal,

following the success of the Hall of Team GB this year, it is quite an

honour. How difficult is it to go from the likes of the tour to France

to the velodrome? Although it is all bikes, it's a bit

like saying Andy Murray would go and play squash, it's a racket sport but

it's not the same. We are on bicycles but it's even different

muscles you are using. It was hard to do but I've kind of been working

towards it for two years, training, I'm a professional road rider, and

that's my day job. And just in between that trying to keep the

velodrome going with a chance of winning at the Olympics. It was hard

to do but worth it in the end. Did you put a lot of pressure on

yourself ahead of this? It was the one medal you didn't have, and

you've been to these other games. Do you put pressure on yourself or can

you separate it? I actually do put pressure on myself but I thrive off

that. I have the best group of people around me. My family has been

massively important. My wife has pretty much been a single mum with

three kids while I've been away. The guys at British cycling to let me

come in and put the timing to me when I don't live in Manchester

where the British team is based, I had to go over there to drop in, and

they gave the time up to help me and that the re-sources behind it, as

they did with everybody. But I'm very fortunate to be in that

position, and that made it easier for me to do this, really. And we've

got to talk about the crash. You know we've got to talk about the

crash. Everybody has been talking about it. I know you apologise to

one of the riders you took out. Talk us through, presumably you had no

idea what was going on? You don't know what was going on. At the end

of the day you will not intentionally crash. I'm a

professional bike rider, I know what it is like to crash. I would not put

somebody in danger, especially somebody I like, a good bike ride.

He wasn't in a medal position, it would have no bearing if I did

something to him anyway. But yeah, I spoke to him and he was all right

about it. I'm glad he's all right, really. Obviously I get asked

questions. It was a basic mistake on my part, it was my fault. But it was

a mistake that unfortunately happens in cycling. And those bikes can go

pretty easily. We've seen clips throughout the games. The thing is

you got no breaks, you've got one gear, you can't stop pedalling. And

you don't have a run-off like you do in the road. So you are overlapping

a bit and there's not really anything to go on, and because you

are going round in circles, constantly looking behind, so yeah,

things happen in a split second, really. GB cycling has been

fantastic for years now, and it's the one thing we go into the games

and say, yeah, we're going to get some gold and silver is here. But

every member of Team GB cycling team has won a medal at these games which

has been incredible, and there has been some sour grapes from other

nations. That again has been blown out of proportion, it's the

Olympics, you are going to make big stories about it. I think every

member won either gold or silver. Which is incredible. It shows the

strength. A lot of people question how we pick it up for the Olympics

top white that's what Anna Mears was saying. She says, we all scratch our

heads saying, how do they left it in so many events when they haven't

even been in contention in the World Championships? The Olympics come

along, I'm not exactly sure how they've got it together. I don't

really think she's insinuating anything. She's not insinuating you

are on drugs or cheating or anything, but is it literally that

you care about nothing but the games? Absolutely. We have a plan

for every four years. It's what we are funded for. And although the

World Championships is important, I think other nations put the emphasis

as much as the Olympic Games, GB does. We have the world track

Championships in March this year, at home in London, so it was a big

World Championships for us, but we use our second-rate equipment, we

use our second-rate clothing. Even stuff that is eight years old, stuff

we were using before Beijing. And why, to keep the really good stuff

of the games? Xavier, if we learn to compete with the separate equipment

-- exactly, if we learn to compete with that equipment, and then we go

to the Olympic Games and all of a sudden we are peaking. There's a lot

of stuff about, should I go to the Olympics because I was only six in

the Omni at the World Championships. I said since January, I can't win

the world, but I can win the Olympics, it's in August. That's

what we do as a nation in cycling, we peak for August every four years.

Is it true those shoes cost thousands of pounds? Yeah, I don't

know, really. I'm with Nike anyway. Good plug. I was talking to you just

before we came in, you are competing this weekend? Supposed to be racing

in Germany. I heard yesterday I might not be going but I flew back

because it is back to the day job. Could you do another four-year

cycle? Are you saying you'd be looking at going to Tokyo? I race

from January to November every year anyway, professional road cyclists,

it's kind of like football, we have a season. I have two more years of

contract with my team, so I will be going at least two more years. One

thing I cannot do is balance road and track again. I don't know if the

road race would suit me in Tokyo, probably not. But then if I'm still

competing as a professional on the road it might be difficult. It took

a lot of energy to do it. And let's talk about Rio, I was fortunate

enough to be there, and incredible place. Always difficult to compare

to London because of home games, but what did you make of the whole

atmosphere there? After London, in the city will have a hard job

matching that and it will always be compared, unfortunately. And it was

not as well-organised as London. But one thing we were looking at, the

POA, they really looked after the British athletes. It was really

comfortable for us. And when you are living in that bubble you don't

really see anything else. I didn't see much more of Rio. It was a bit

hard getting into the Olympic Park. Nobody really knew what was going

on. It took us a week to find out how to get to the velodrome. We go

to the pedestrian entrance and they'd say, you can't come in,

you've got bikes, so we would go to the car entrance, and they said, you

can't come in, you've got bikes, so you had to befriend a security

guard. Is that the distraction, joking aside? It's all right. That's

kind of what Latin America is about, it's just quite relaxed. I think

once you get used that was OK. I had a brilliant time there. And

incredibly proud thing to represent Great Britain at the Olympics. For

me that was the biggest thing regardless of where I was. Did you

get to see any other events? No. Didn't see anything actually. I was

training for my event. There was a bit of click bait stuff going on, I

did not even go to see the other track guys competing before me, but

mine was one of the last track event so I have to rest up. And what about

the whole of Team GB? Cycling clearly had an incredible

achievement there. But also the whole team, presumably you feed off

each other when you hear somebody else wins a medal? It was brilliant.

We stayed in these big apartment blocks in the village. So Team GB

have a whole want to themselves. They had these lifts that took ages.

And by the time they come they are full of people who have been waiting

ages. By the end of it we got in and even if we didn't know the athletes,

we were best off saying congratulations because chances were

they'd won medal anyway. I think everybody really thrived of success.

Second in the medal table is phenomenal. It's incredible, isn't

it? 22 gold medals. I think we are only about eight medals off the haul

at London. I think the amount of different sports we have had success

at as well. In terms of different sports we would be highest in the

medal table as well, which is pretty impressive as well. Shows what a

diverse country we are at producing the best champions in the world.

Brilliant. Thanks. Thanks for having me.

Lots of you getting in touch on Twitter saying all credit to an

amazing athlete. The media need to celebrate him and not pick holes.

Paul got in touch. Cav really down to earth, good to see. This one says

Mark Cavendish is a top man and it always pays to thank his team-mates

and those involved. Nicola Adams is guaranteed

at least a silver medal, after reaching the final

of the fly weight boxing. She's defending the title

she won in 2012, when she became the first female

Olympic Boxing champion. She beat a familar rival

in the semi-finals, in Ren Cancan, the Chinese woman, whom she defeated

to win gold at the London Games. Adams won with a unanimous points

decision, and will face France's, 10-time national champion

Sarah Oarrah-moo-oon, won a world title in 2015

and represented GB at Great to speak to you. What do you

make of Nicola? She gets so much press attention, doesn't she? She's

such a role model to so many young people. Yeah, I think she's a credit

to the sport. She's really put her name on the map. And it just gives

young females goals to achieve. I think that she will defend her

Olympic medal. I think she's going to win gold. She's an incredible

athlete and a real champion to the sports. You can see real

similarities between her and Jade Jones who won tae kwon do gold

yesterday. Nicola Adams hasn't turned up for anything except gold.

No, I mean, she trains with the lads up at GB. She's got that winning

mentality. I think that's what takes her where she is at. She's a very,

very skilled boxer. She can fight on the inside. I think she's the one to

beat. If anybody is going to beat heard they've got to be on their

game to have a chance. It is interesting that you say that she

trains with the blokes. I was reading yesterday that she says to

keep herself sharp to fight other women, she enjoys fighting men

because generally they are quicker and it keeps her at the top of her

game. It's not only that, it's probably finding a lady that's going

to push as hard as the men. I don't think there is in England, to be

honest. I think that she's clearly our number one. So all our hopes are

on her for the gold medal. So basically I think that she's

definitely guaranteed gold. I don't want this to sound patronising, but

do men find it difficult to fight against the likes of Nicola Adams?

While there are lots of things, they do with her in the ring. Personally

myself I wouldn't really want to get in there and two with her. But I've

heard a few rumours. And that sounds like a glitch unfortunately. How

frustrating. We will try to reconnect that line. I think we are

going to fail to do that. We will try to reconnect. In the meantime,

massive night for Usain Bolt. Usain Bolt heads for a record

breaking 'triple triple' of Olympic medals -

he's got his eighth Gold and is speeding to his ninth -

we talk about his remarkable And after ten - we look at the study

suggesting that half of all parents let their under 14 year old children

drink at home - we bring we bring you the opposing views

on each side of this tricky debate. Hugh is not ready either

unfortunately. Can we go to the newsroom? I don't think we can at

the moment, if I'm honest we are about a minute and a half early

because we were trying to speak to Billy Joe Saunders whose line has

dropped for us at the moment. I would be interested to get your

thoughts on drinking because there is this study which has come out

which says that over half of parents in the UK allow under 14-year-olds

to junk alcohol. Is that something you would allow them to do? Is it a

little sip of yours or would you say no. Now we can get the early

newsroom summary, so I appreciate that.

Police say a boy has died after being bitten by a dog.

Officers say a 29-year-old woman has been arrested for allegedly

allowing a dog to be dangerously out of control.

We'll bring you further details as we get them.

The United States Olympic Committee has apologised to the organisers

of the Rio Olympics, and the people of Brazil,

for the behaviour of a group of swimmers.

The four, who include the gold medallist Ryan Lochte,

Brazilian police say they lied to cover up an act of vandalism

On this programme yesterday we heard calls for a post

The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has said he is keen

He said he was speaking to the government and Olympic

and Paralympic sports chiefs to find the best way of celebrating

the achievements of British competitors.

If I have my way, yes, but we've got to talk to the government and the

Olympic and Paralympic chiefs. I'm optimistic. So what's important is

that we've obviously got the Paralympics coming up, I'm really

excited about that as well. And we celebrate our heroes returning from

Rio, the Olympians and Paralympian. A man under a court order to tell

police 24 hours before he has sexual contact with anyone for the first

News - more at 10am. Night for the incomparable Usain

Bolt. -- and eighth gold medal overnight. He will now go into the

relay tonight aiming for an unprecedented ninth track gold

medal. 36 medals so far for Britain, the latest another gold for Jade

Jones in the tae kwon do. Retaining her title in the under 57 kilo

category. And there was an historic 1-2 for the Brownlee brothers in the

triathlon. Alistair beat Jonny by six seconds, becoming the first man

to win two titles in triathlon. And much to look forward to at nine

o'clock tonight, with the Williams hockey players taking on the

Netherlands in the final. Team GB have never reached this stage

before. And I will be back just after 10am speaking to some of our

medal winning rugby sevens players. Let's have a look at the social

media reaction to the Olympics. Yesterday was another day

where Usain Bolt dominated the agenda, completing a Rio 2016

sprint double by winning the mens An achievement he took

in his stride, Bolt's Jamaica team mate

Yohan Blake was more effusive in his praise, tweeting that Bolt

is a "true inspiration There was success for team GB

as well, with Alistair Brownlee winning gold in the men's triathlon

and his brother brother Jonny The brothers looked pleased as punch

in the picture Alistair tweeted out, both of them holding

up their medals. Their efforts won the admiration

of former Olympian Victoria Pendleton, who tweeted

out 'That is one Gold for Alistair Brownlee

and silver for Jonny Brownlee.' The Olympics has wowed us

all with feats of athleticism, but it has also brought us

some lighter moments. British cycling hero Jason Kenny

cause a bit of a stir when he packed his kit into a bag

for life after winning gold at the men's keirin

a couple of days ago. I did comment on this myself. I said

is that really a bag for life? The Buzzfeed journalist

Chris Applegate Tweeted that this was the most British thing

he had ever seen. Alhough Belfast boxer Michael

Conlan didn't manage to win a medal this week, he certainly

inspired someone. A five-year-old County Dublin boy

has sent a touching letter to his hero, offering him a

consolation prize. Finn McManus

told a devastated Conlan: "I want

you to have my school medal Michael Conlan was clearly impressed

by this, tweeting that the young lad, he had

a gift waiting for him. So another fantastic

performance from Usain Bolt. The fastest man in the world did it

again, winning his second gold medal of this Olympics,

and looking like he might even go Let's take a look at his

Olympic highlights. Here comes Usain Bolt. Streaking

away from the field. Gold for Jamaica. That is superb. It is a new

world record. Usain Bolt already away. Look at the

time! It is gold for Usain Bolt and a new world record. I cannot believe

it. Usain Bolt has it in his hands. But it is Jamaica, one more to go.

Asafa Powell, what is the time? It is a new world record! Three gold

medals. Bolt quickly out of the blocks. Coming into his stride

alongside Gatlin. He is going to win the gold. It is a clean start. Bolt

is out of the blocks really well. Look at him go. He is going to do it

again! Gold all the way. You cannot argue. Here he goes. Jamaica are the

gold medallists again. And it is a new world record. Smashes it to

pieces. Gatlin gets away well. A focused effort. And here comes Usain

Bolt. He is going to take it. Usain Bolt gets it. 9.8 zero. What more

does he have for us? Usain Bolt, on his own, as he has been throughout

his career, running away from everybody, running to what he would

love to be immortality as an athlete. 90.79, it is his eighth

gold medal. I ran hard on the turn but when I came to the straight, my

body was not responding. But I am getting older. I am not as young and

fresh but it is just one of those things. I am excited that I got the

gold medal and that is the main thing.

Usain Bolt doing what Usain Bolt does best.

Diane Modahl is one of Britain's most successful 800 metre runner,

winning gold in the 1990 Commonwealth Games and competing

She now runs the Diane Modahl Sports Foundation.

Derek Redmond, British sprinter and World Champion

has competed in two Olympic Games, is next to me.

Thanks to you both for speaking to me about this incredible man. Ever

in doubt? It was never in doubt. The big thing was how fast would he run.

The fact that Gatlin was not there made no difference. He seemed

generally frustrated -- genuinely frustrated that he did not break the

record. Absolutely. He has gone there in great shape to win the

three medals. The 200, it is probably his last 200 on the world

stage and he felt that he was in shape to challenge the world record.

The fact that he did not get close to it will be disappointing but I'm

sure he will get over it. Diane, not much to criticise Usain Bolt for

what some people have criticised in the past that he has sometimes just

won the race and not pushed himself showboating towards the end. He

really wanted that world record and he did not get it. That is possibly

so spectators and fans being just a little bit greedy, I think. -- us as

spectators. We're so used to him, every time he steps on the track, a

miracle happens, something amazing happens. And I think he was probably

frustrated, as he set himself, that he did not get the world record,

although he ran the curve and he was going for it. And of course, knowing

Usain Bolt, he would not want to be upstaged by the 400 metre record

earlier in the week. Of course, it did not help that there was a rain

shower just before he started. You mentioned the 400 metres and I

wanted to bring that up. Wouldn't you love to see the two compete?

Absolutely. But I do not know what Derek would say. He is the 400

metres specialist. With Usain Bolt's speed at 400 metres, I think Wayde

van Niekerk would struggle. If you are going to put them in the race,

it would have to be 300 metres. Wayde van Niekerk, for me he is the

best performance of the Olympic Games, I may be biased because it is

my event but 43.03 is unbelievable. He is the only sprinter to ever run

under ten seconds, 20 seconds and 44 seconds. But over 100 and 200

metres, Usain Bolt has it hands down. Over 400 metres, Wayde van

Niekerk has got it so the distance to run would be 300. That would be

an event. But Usain Bolt would not do that? He could do it. One of the

reasons he does not like running 400 is because he does not like

training. He has admitted that. He ran 45 flat many years ago. But as a

one-off, it would be interesting to see how he would do. But the thing

that would scare him over 300 metres is the amount of lactic acid that

would be created in his leg, but Wayde van Niekerk would be used to

that. I reckon that would be a fantastic spectacle. Looking ahead

for Usain Bolt to do the treble treble, Diane, the Jamaican

sprinters have not done as well as normal. Do you think is going to get

that in the relay? I think it is absolutely on. The difficulty with

the relay is getting the baton round. Everybody has to do that,

even Usain Bolt. With the team they have got, with the inspiration of

somebody as strong, clearly in good form, as Usain Bolt, it is

absolutely on. But we should not underestimate the other competitors.

The Team GB guys will have something to say about that. They are a shark

team. They have described themselves as a family. They know that they are

running well and they know that they have trained well. They have got the

baton round. I think we have to watch out for the other competitors

as well. But the trouble trouble is absolutely on. It is an obviously.

-- it is an, obviously. The problem for Usain Bolt is that nobody likes

to have to rely on other people for your run success but this is a

relay, a team event and he has to rely on those other three guys. The

biggest problem is getting the baton round. You can be the greatest team,

the Shahpur steam, the quickest team as we saw in 2004 at Athens where

America had a slight tweak in one of their changeovers, and we have

another world-class team on their shoulders. We have seen it in major

championships before, it can happen and we hope it doesn't. It puts us

in an odd situation because I would like to see Usain Bolt doing the

trouble trouble, trouble trouble, however you want to pronounce it,

but that is at the cost of Britain winning a gold medal. -- triple

trouble. What is the future going to be now for sprinting? The worry is

that Usain Bolt says his coach wants to do another 200 and then he is

done. I was lucky enough to be in the stadium when he ran his 200

metres in 2012. When he walked into the stadium, the electricity was

phenomenal. He had the crowd eating out of his hands. Athletics, with

all of its scandals, it needs someone like that. Wayde van

Niekerk, is that him and? Does he have the personality? Who picks up

the baton? The problem is there. From an ability point of view, there

are athletes that could fill those shoes. We have Mo Farah and Jess

Ennis. We have Wayde van Niekerks and other world-class athletes. But

what we're going to miss is that personality and character and it

will leave a hole. The sad thing, if anyone else tries to be Usain Bolt,

they will say, they are only copying. Nothing else can be said.

He will leave a massive hole from that perspective. The competition

and the times and the medals will continue to be won by other

athletes. Other people will come along with similar abilities that

will be able to perform at that level but following that personality

that he brings, we are going to miss that. Single-handedly, he has been

responsible for keeping track and field where it is in the world is

today. Did you see anyone taking over, Diane? What is unique about

Usain Bolt is the fact that he is charismatic, and confident. What

we're used to seeing in athletes is that tunnel vision, the game face

that they come with on the running track. And he has changed all of

that. He has entertained us and excited us and then when it has

really mattered, he has also performed. And I think this is an

opportunity now. It is an opportunity for other talented young

athletes to get up there and not try to copy or to be a clone of Usain

Bolt, but to go out there and perform, keep winning, keep right

first times and bring their own style, their own charisma, their own

personality to the sport. It has been done before. Usain Bolt is

unique, absolutely, but what is great about athletics is that it is

an opportunity for others to come through and shame. And there will be

others waiting in the wings, ready to show their own personality.

They have to be careful, these up-and-coming athletes, just

remember you've got to be winning and winning in style before you can

start showboating and doing the sort of stuff Usain Bolt has done. Years

ago Michael Johnson with his gold spikes come he could afford to wear

gold spikes because the guy was smashing world record over 200 and

400. So it's all well and good but I always say take care of business

first and then the world is your lobster. I think it would be a

mistake for anybody to go and try to replicate what is a natural

personality of Usain Bolt. I remember meeting him when he was 15

years old at the world Junior Championships in Sherbrooke in

Canada and we were there with a strong Team GB contingent ourselves.

We were very proud and confident about what they young Craig

Pickering, 100 metres sprinter, was going to achieve at this

Championships. The Jamaican team looked at us and said, OK, we see

Craig, we recognise his talent, but look out for this young 15-year-old

Tommy Usain Bolt. And at the age of 15 at those world junior

championships he was amazing, charismatic. He was entertaining.

His ego at 15 was just as Big Ben as it is today. And so that is natural

to him and it would be wrong of anybody to try to replicate that.

But it would be absolutely right for those with the personality and the

drive to want to go out and entertained to do it in their own

unique way. Because that's what sport is about. We are there to

entertain and to provide people with a showcase. Encouraging young people

to get involved in the sport. Thank you for coming to speak to us.

The International Paralympic Committee has said

there is ?90 million deficit in funding for the Games.

Only 12% of tickets have been sold, and the funding shortfall means some

athletes from smaller nations may not be able to get to the games.

The man who has to tell the Police 24 hours before he has sex

will today find out if the legal order is to be extended

John O'Neill claims his Sexual Risk Order is so wide-ranging

that he is unable to work and is now homeless.

I must warn you this discussion will contain frank,

sexual language which you might not want children to hear - our reporter

First of all, can you give us a little background to this case?

Tell us what could happen today. These sexual risk orders came into

force last year and they can be imposed on anyone the courts believe

could be at potential risk of causing potential harm. In the case

of John O'Neill he was acquitted of rape but during the trial we heard

evidence that he had rape fantasies. He always maintained that those will

role-play and part of a consensual relationship with his then partner.

And that he also had safe words to ensure the situation could not get

out of control. Despite that the judge took the unusual step of

saying that he was dangerous. Since then he's had this order imposed on

him and he says because of the stringent nature of that order he is

now living rough. So this is where I've been camping

out. Over here, that's the little one-man tent. That's where I sleep.

I've got some waterproof containers for clothes and such. Firewood for

the concrete stove I have improvised out of breeze blocks. That's my

water stash. The piles of lemonade bottles. Jesse is that as water

containers. Do you actually like living here? Once I got used to it,

yeah. The bills are very reasonable. Isn't it demoralising to live like

this? It is under the current circumstances because I thought all

this was behind me. I thought all this was behind me. But to have to

go back to it, it has been a bit of a shock. But to be honest I'm

entirely focused on the hearing. John O'Neill claims he's living

rough because he can't get a job after the sexual risk order he was

placed on prevents him from using electronic devices unless the police

can access them. Despite being found not guilty of rape is legally

required to tell the police 24 hours before he has sex. And in his first

interview he told this programme the order has impacted on his life. Why

have you had this sexual risk order served upon you? This is the mystery

that we have been trying to figure out. We were amazed that the police

made the application after an acquittal, unanimous acquittal of

the only time that I've ever been accused of. As he's homeless, John

prepares for today's court hearing in a park in York. He claims he was

advised to declare himself unavailable to work, as a result he

says he's lost the right to universal credit and legal aid. Have

you made yourself a martyr? I haven't done it, that's the point.

Have you done it just as a campaign against the situation you are in?

That is an outrageous misrepresentation of what has

happened. I have not done this. None of us expected after the claim was

cut that it would have a knock-on effect to legal aid. John spends his

days in coffee shops and walking the streets. Thinking about the court

case today which could see his sexual risk order extended for up to

five years. Do you just want around town because you've got nowhere to

live? No, I'm working overtime. I've got a matter of days to prepare for

a very complicated case in which I'll be representing myself. So it's

all work. Do you have to come in to pick things up? Why are you in town?

That's right. Because I don't have an address my solicitor sends

paperwork to the post office in the centre of town. So yes I do have to

walk in to pick up post. North Yorkshire Police say the orders are

there to protect the public from the risk of sexual harm, and it's up to

the courts to decide if they are justified. Department for Work and

Pensions say they don't recognise this account of events and urge Mr

O'Neill to contact them if he wants help to get back to work. I accept

that it's odd and very unusual. But I was homeless when I was a kid, I

camped out all the time. It's not as much of a culture shock for me as it

might be for someone else. I have no control over what happens on Friday

and I am not optimistic because of what's happened this last week. I

just can't imagine winning on Friday.

So, Peter, he said in a report that he will be representing himself.

Tell us what will happen today? He lost his right to legal aid so he

will be representing himself in court today and says he's not

optimistic because he is not a legal professional. The most likely

outcomes are either that the order is lifted or it could be imposed for

a period of time right up to five years. Civil Liberties groups have

always complained about these orders saying that they are heavily

restrictive, especially on people that have never been convicted of

any crime. North Yorkshire Police always claim that the conditions of

this order are proportionate. Of course the media picks up on this

committee needs to give 24 hours notice before he has sex. He says

there are greater challenges. He says that's the thing everybody is

caught up on, the 24 hour notice. But he says it is the limit on

electronic devices which is the big thing. We now live in a society that

is so reliant on technology, either at work or at home you might have to

use a mobile phone or a computer and unless these have access to all

those things he cannot use them and he says it is a huge restriction on

his life and one of the reasons he is now living rough.

Thanks for dropping by to fill us in.

Half of parents with children under the age of 14 allow them

to drink alcohol at home, according to a new survey.

The research, by a leading insurance company,

spoke to more than 1,000 people and found that many of them

It also found that a third of parents with children under 14

used alcohol as a bribe to encourage good behaviour.

A spokesman for the East England Ambulance Service said that despite

the best efforts of everyone involved the child sadly died. I

have spoken to Essex Police and they tell me they have arrested a

29-year-old woman for allowing a doctor be dangerously out of control

and injuring a person. She remains in custody this morning. The dog in

question has been seized and placed in kennels. The breed is yet to be

identified. Do they automatically destroy dogs?

They have two identify the breed and act within the law. Worryingly on

Monday there was another fatal attack, a man who was 52. Attacked

and killed by a dog while walking his own Yorkshire terrier in

Huddersfield. This was notable particularly because the dog in

question that attacked him had been returned to its owner a week earlier

by dog wardens who deemed that the breed was not dangerous. And that

incident has been referred to the Independent Police Complaints

Commission. Frankly there are still lots of dangerous dogs owned by

members of the public, at least 21 people, 14 of them children, have

died in the last ten years as the result of dog attacks. More than

7000 people have been taken to hospital with injuries as a result

of dog attacks in two years. The Dangerous Dogs Act, there to try to

stop this problem, amended in 2014 to give greater powers to try and

prevent this, some of the new measures were introduced to penalise

the owners of dogs who attack people on private as well as public

property, and actually the prison sentences were increased as well for

those convicted of certain offences. I think especially with this latest

death a lot of people will be asking whether the law is simply not

working well enough. Thank you for dropping by and filling us in on

that story. We will bring you an update on that. Headlines in the

next couple of minutes but first the weather. After the sunshine there is

a change of seasons in the air for many, I'm afraid to say. Some will

be welcome of the rain falling over the next 24 hours. The glorious week

in the Highlands, best of the weather here today, up to 24

Celsius. This shot from Dorset much more typical of what many of you are

seeing out there right now. Rain spreading its way north with an

eastwards. Things by turning up this afternoon through England, Wales and

Northern Ireland as the rain works northwards and eastwards, never

quite reaching the far north of Scotland. Expect temperatures of 23

degrees. But central and southern Scotland, not a great afternoon. Not

great in England but some areas need rain, we've only had four or five

millimetres in the East Midlands so far this month, any rain here will

be welcome. I'm sure some gardens across the South will welcome the

occasional rain. As the sun comes out the win strengthens and this is

our change to autumn as we go through tonight and into tomorrow,

deepening area of low pressure to the west of Northern Ireland,

strengthening winds around, rain pushing northwards towards Orkney

and Shetland and bringing infrequent, heavy and thundery

showers towards western parts of the UK to go into Saturday morning. The

weekend will not be a wash-out by any means and in fact some parts of

north and name in Scotland, another fine day. Eastern parts of England,

some getting away with a few showers, dry weather. Frequent

showers elsewhere, some heavy and thundery. Dusty winds accompanying.

After temperatures in the mid to high 20s, some will be struggling to

get out of the team's Saturday afternoon. The big story for

tomorrow is the strength of wind around the coast and southern

western parts of England and Wales, widespread gales. Winds touching 40,

50, even 60 mph. That will have an impact on ferry services. And being

the summer, a big weekend of outdoor activities could be hampered as the

area of low pressure continues to push across the North Sea as we go

through the night and into Sunday. Staying window through Saturday

night. Frequent showers to begin with. Confined to eastern areas

later. Try and buy to towards the West. Sunshine in the breeze not

feeling especially warm. Taking is into Monday working its way across

the UK and then into next week. Is that weather front just all is

towards the West. And if they do that there's a chance, after a

cooler weekend, we could start to bring warmer air back-up from the

the near continent. Temperatures back to the mid or high 20s

potentially across southern and eastern parts of the UK. More

updates on the news channel throughout the day.

Hello it's 10 o'clock, it's Friday - I'm Chloe Tilly -

welcome to the programme if you've just joined us.

The greatest sprinter of all time Usain Bolt is now just one final

away from the "triple triple" - three golds from three

I'm getting older, I'm not as young and fresh but I'm just excited I got

the gold medal. Marc Cavendish, fresh from Rio, tells us what it

means to be part of Team GB's successful stop to represent Great

Britain is such an honour. The Olympics is the biggest thing. You

can watch the full interview on our programme page.

And do you let your teenagers drink at home?

A new study suggesting that half of all parents in Britain do.

We can head to speak to queue and get all of the updates on the

Olympics. What will you do when they are over? I do not know what we will

be talking about next week I'm sure there is football going on. We have

to talk about Olympics while it is going on. First, we have to speak

about the incomparable Usain Bolt, the 29-year-old, powering his way

around the video track to win the 200 metres gold for the third

straight Games will stop 19.78 seconds. He stays on course for an

extraordinary travel trouble of sprint titles. Team GB consolidated

second in the medal table with three golds, Jade Jones wrote her name in

the history, defending her Olympic crown in the under 57 kilograms

category, eating a big rival from Spain -- beating. I didn't actually

realise how much pressure it would be. It was only today, I thought,

there is a lot of pressure, and pressure on myself, because I know I

am the best but in tae kwon do, doesn't always work like that. I

just wanted to win so much and I've trained so hard for four years, I

just wanted to win and to finally do it is just amazing. Written's first

go on day 13 came with a historic 1- to put the Brownlee Brothers in

triathlon, Alistair beating his brother Johnny. As expected, Saskia

Clark and Hannah Mills duly completed the last race in the 470

sailing class to take gold four years after they won the silver

medal in London. Tonight at nine p.m., grape's hockey players take on

reigning champions the Netherlands in the final. Britain had never won

the Limerick title, they are up against a team who won in Beijing

and London. -- the Olympic title. I am joined by part of the rugby

sevens team. James, I want to start with you. It was a great

performance, you beat New Zealand early on, did you ever think that

you would have gone so far and start so well? I think when we can

together ten weeks ago, we had the challenges of never having played

together as a team, we knew we were confident in the levels of training

we have had back home before we went to Rio, we wanted to get a good

start in the first game against Kenya, and then we built our

performances. It was a great feeling to reach the final. That semifinal

against South Africa was a very tough much, it's obviously put you

into the gold-medal game, but was it so tough you had spent all your

energy, did you have anything left in the tank against Fiji for the

final? I don't think so. It was probably our toughest game, and it

was another one that was really tight, but in the last game, that

was bubbly our worst performance, unfortunately, and the Fijian is

really hit the mark, and probably played as well as they could have.

They hadn't performed to their best throughout the tournament and it was

a lucky for us that when they are on form, everything goes to hand, they

always off-loading the ball, they have pace, powerful, huge men, they

are difficult to stop. Do you come home with any disappointment or is

the silver medal almost overachievement? It was a funny

feeling, because essentially, you come off having lost the game and it

was the final and we lost it quite badly but then on reflection, how

far we have come in the last ten weeks, we pretty quickly were

buzzing in terms of what we managed to achieve as a group. Tom, the

captain, the legacy of rugby sevens, it is starting to stand out as a

sport in its own right away from the 15s game, do you think this medal

will go some way towards establishing the sevens game in

people's minds? I hope so. The game of sevens has been on an amazing

journey, we have seen it grow in popularity, no more so than in the

last couple of weeks. The feedback we have had from people, it was the

most amazing thing, people have never seen a game before saying how

exciting it was. It's 14 minutes, amazing action, lots of scoring,

it's easy to get into even if you don't understand the game of rugby

so much. That's amazing for us as players, to be part of that on the

biggest stage there is an also in terms of legacy, we wanted to

protect our ability to come together as a team, the ability we showed out

there on the field was special, the way we fought and had a never say

die attitude for Team GB and everyone that represents, is

something we would like to leave a legacy for. Congratulations. I'm

sure you will be celebrating for some time to come. We will be back

just after 1030 a.m. To talk more Rio sport. Time for a summary of

If I have my way, yes, but we've got to talk the government and the

Olympic and Paralympians chiefs. They will want it, that's why I am

optimistic, and what is important is we have got the power Olympics

which sports will be give After London 2012,

four Olympic sports - Basketball, Volleyball,

Table Tennis and Wrestling - Other sports suffered

less severe cuts. Swimming - which fell short

of its London 2012 target - was cut by nearly ?4

million. Some sports had more money. Overall

the total funding was 347 million. So what happens to those

athletes who are left not And what about the athletes

who haven't hit their medal targets in Rio -

will they lose out in and Olympic Bronze Medallist Chloe

Rogers and Professional Table Tennis In our Southampton studio

is the Chair of UK Sport Rod Carr. These are pretty brutal decisions.

Is it literally a case of where you finish at an Olympic Games as to

what funding you get? No, it isn't, is the reality. It's a case that

it's a factor, but the main thing we look at is the capability of a

particular sport going forwards. We spend more time looking forwards as

to who the sport is putting forward and whether they have got a

realistic medal shot at the Games all the Games after, then we do

looking backwards. So it isn't the case that it's as simple as

committee don't perform, you get your money cut. It's worth pointing

out that London was a special case, a home Olympics, the government

decided that all competing British sports should have some basic

funding, which had not been done before in the previous four Games.

So it was a special case, we felt that if we didn't have the resources

to carry on with that with sports that didn't have a realistic chance

of getting to the podium for the next Games. He say it's not directly

linked to performance but if you get the gymnastics team for example,

which have done amazing things, far outperforming what was expected, Max

Whitlock becoming a double champion, presumably gymnastics will now get

more money, is that then taken away from another sport? You are right

that we have a limited pot of money, we have to distribute that in the

best way, to maximise our chances of getting the maximum number of medals

so yes, it's tough and we have to make decisions. The gymnastics as a

classic case in point, in 2000 they didn't do very well and they had

their money cut. Their strategy was to have a root and branch review of

what they were doing, the pathways for young gymnasts, coaches they

were employing, they did all of that, and you have seen the results.

It has taken them some time, but right now, three Olympic cycles

later, they are right up there. And they did it bit by bit. Coming to us

each time and delivering on what they said they would do, we

responded with giving the more funding. The those sports that

aren't yet there in funding terms, the reality is, if they come to us

with a track record, and they demonstrate brought record of

achievement, even at Junior or youth level, we will take that Somerset. I

want to bring in Chloe and Simon, Chloe, you had that funding is a

hockey player. We were very fortunate to have the funding and

train full-time as a squad. It's been a long path and it comes over

time, working hard to get that funding. They didn't qualify for the

Athens Olympics, slowly they progressed, but from the Beijing

cycle, we were funded full-time, and progression is helped and we have

got better results, so it's about performances at the Olympics,

performing well at every tournament and showing you are medal

contenders, going into radio as well.

When we talk about funding, what does it mean? Do you personally get

money? As a training group for London and Rio, 30 men and 30 women

on the hockey teams are funded, for a squad of 16 that get picked each

tournament. We are all individually paid a monthly allowance, and that

allows you to train full-time. We all live near the site. For the

Beijing side of a lot of us were working part-time and training

part-time and that showed in our results. Moving towards London and

Rio we were able to be together every day, training fully, it has

your full attention and focus and results improve. Give us the

perspective on table tennis. You are not only a coach but your brother

has self-funded and become world champion? The world champion is in a

different sport, the sandpaper version. But Andrew is the athlete

with most medals in Commonwealth history. Table tennis was given

nominal funding for London and doesn't have funding now. Obviously

it is a no-brainer. Table tennis needs funding for its elite level

athletes and right throughout the sport. The concern is how governing

bodies spend their money and how they allocate their money, it is of

the greatest interest to me. How does your brother balance that, if

he is self-funded, does he have a job? Andrew Bagley is very much

full-time, he has just come back from China. Fortunately we have a

very strong family network which I think you will find a lot of

sportspeople have. In some ways not getting funding has created the

athlete. We had to fight for what perhaps we felt was our right and we

would still argue that. Equally so I ink that's made an athlete. We do it

our own. But Andrew has always been selected for major events. Played in

London 2012, and it has created an athlete who has had to fight and do

it the hard way. It's not always a hard luck story if you don't get

funded. Stephen saying we need funding for table tennis, what are

the chances of that? Well, they are on the rise, particularly in the

men's side of the game. Some good results at the Olympics with the

men's team, knocked out in the quarterfinal against China won gold.

So just like gymnastics 12 or 16 years ago, they are on the rise. And

I'm sure, I know in fact they will come to us and ask for us to

consider their case for Tokyo and beyond, and we will take that very

seriously. And I think the point that's been made about people really

digging deep is a good one. Even if they are not on funding. Remember

that public funding, in this case lottery funding, is a privilege.

It's not right. And we do have to make some difficult conditions. To

be honest with you the results speak for themselves. One hesitates to

blow our own trumpet but you've only got to look at the medal table. We

have medals in more sports than we did in London which was our home

games. So it's working. Obviously he makes some valid points and table

tennis clearly needs funding in the future. We are competing with China

which is arguably the largest global economy and it is their national

sport. To have any chance we do need funding throughout the support.

Table tennis has done well at the Olympics, Team GB have done well,

and that will encourage UK Sport to release funds to Team GB table

tennis. So that's really encouraging. As I say, it's about

how the allocation of funds is their news for the best interest of the

game. As long as that is done in an open entrance Baron way I think

people will connect with that. -- open and transparent way. When you

see gold medals being won, there are many stories for people playing

sport who have not been funded and that would make an interesting

article, to not just see the gold medal, but to see the inspiration,

it is heart-warming. There was a time, what's in there, When Marnie

Was There kind of given out in what some people would say a very British

way -- when money was given out. There's a more ruthless approach

now. But we are winning more medals, so there needs to be logic to that.

Yes, you look at who has received money and it is the sports that are

doing well, and they have to have done well to get noticed in the

first place. As hockey we did not receive much funding. We have

progressed and done well to get noticed and receive funding to the

point where we are able to do it full-time. Is it quite stressful

waiting for the call of whether you've got funding or not? A little

bit. There is a system whereby we are a squad so it's not necessarily

the individual. The hockey girls took the decision that everybody

receives the same amount, whether you have been in the squad ten years

or are relatively new. As a group of players it was the decision of we

are all in this together and we deserve the same amount. It's a

tricky one to say you are waiting for your funding but ultimately as a

sport we look at it, the men and women are there as a sport rather

than individuals. Thank you for coming in. I will stick up for table

tennis and I do hope Rod will look at table tennis favourably. He's

giving you a nod, he suddenly taking it on board.

The study suggesting that half of all parents let their under 14

year olds drink at home - we'll have the details

and we'd love to hear from you if you've got teenagers.

Ian says parents should be ashamed of themselves, parents should be

made accountable for their actions. Ben says encouraging drinking

underage is not acceptable. The legal drink in aid should be raised

to 21. Furthermore checks on shops and nightclubs selling to underage

people need cracking down on. This view says I'm away to at a

restaurant in the north-east and more often than not I come across

parents who effectively encourage their underage children to drink. Do

get in touch. A single image of a five year

old Syrian child, battered, bloody and filthy after an air

strike, brought the ravages of the conflict back

onto the front pages this week. He was the victim of the latest

fighting for control of the Syrian city of Aleppo -

that's intensified as government forces try to regain control

of districts lost to rebel forces. The Assad regime, backed by Russia

and Iran, has continued bombarding the city,

and this boy was retrieved from one The pictures were met with outrage

and grief around the world. He's just one of thousands of children

suffering as the violence escalates. If you see the whole video it is so

painful to watch. Let's speak with Haid Haid a Syrian

based in London with family Razan Saffour, whose

mother is from Aleppo - she also has family currently living

in the city. Those images are just absolutely

heartbreaking, aren't they? Of course that is one child in a city

where so many children are being targeted. It's hard for anybody to

look at that but is it harder for you with that link to Aleppo? Yes,

for sure. Especially that my son is still there. I have only one family

member who lives in areas controlled by the regime, the rest live in

areas controlled by opposition groups. On a daily basis I think of

them. To see how they are doing. And I don't know whether the next call

they will still be OK or not. It's just surreal, what's going on there.

And no one is trying to do enough. Is there much difference in

conditions between the rebel held areas and the government-controlled

areas? Big, big time. The problem is that the Syrian regime is using

bombs and indiscriminate weapons, and the Russians who started

bombarding last September they have been intensifying their bombardments

and strikes as well. So in my home town, around 30 kilometres from

Aleppo, for more than three weeks now, you have between four and 30

air strikes a day. And most of those air strikes, all of them, actually,

I hitting civilian areas. They are hitting markets, hospitals and

schools. And houses. So it is completely different when you live

in areas controlled by the opposition, because they don't have

air strikes. So the damage is done by mortar shelling is much less than

the damage done by the air strikes. So when you talk to your family in

Aleppo, is there any sense of a normal life? Do people feel safe to

leave their homes and go out on the streets? Absolutely not. It's quite

ironic because on one hand there's no sense as we understand it of

going out, going to university, buying your groceries. For them it

has become normal and that is exemplified in the image of the boy.

He wasn't even crying, he was sitting there are specialist. A boy

his age is the age of the Syrian war, he is five years old, that's

when the Syrian war started. It just shows how this life has become very

normal. People expect to die any second. I was speaking to my aunt

just a few days ago. We speak to her every day. We hadn't heard from her

for about three days on Wednesday. So we hadn't heard from her since

Sunday. And on Wednesday we heard back from her and she told us that

for the first time this year her flat was bombed by a barrel bomb

filled with chlorine. She almost died. But because this has become

their daily life she is very well equipped with survival techniques.

Her neighbours who live in the flat underneath her diet and the people

above, some of them died and some of them are in critical condition is.

She is a 65-year-old woman who lives by herself. She was suffocating from

chlorine gas but she managed to hide herself and cover her face with damp

cloth for about two hours until the Syrian civil defence came over and

were able to extract her out of the rubble. Now she's homeless. Thank

God she's got friends where she can stay round their houses. But yeah,

that's their daily lives. Even when she was telling us this, I was in

shock. I'm half decent to, I can't cry because I hear this on a daily

basis but I'm shocked because she's almost laughing like, I almost got

killed again. Does she have access to food? You say she's effectively

homeless, friends are supporting her, how does she get access to food

and medicine? Knowing that Aleppo is under siege right now, generally all

of Syria, it's very difficult to get access to food. She gets food

because charities are able to come in. I'm sceptical about Russia being

involved in that. Russia agree to that the same day they bombed nine

hospitals. And they are the biggest killers, alongside the regime, of

the Syrian people. So it's all very ironic. But they do get food.

Obviously it's not as accessible but food is there. The main concern now

is to stop the murder once and for all. That's the main concern for

Syrians right now. They are demanding a no-fly zone, for a stop

to the killing. But more they are demanding food. Of course Russia has

said yesterday that it would support the idea of a 48-hour ceasefire.

We've heard these kinds of conversations before. Do you have

faith in that? Definitely not. Because they are the ones targeting

civilians and they are the ones targeting hospitals and schools.

They just say that to say that, OK, we are doing something about it. The

truth is they are the ones killing those people and they are the ones

not allowing food to enter those areas. Even as Rezan mentioned, the

siege was broken a week ago, more than that. But now the regime are

targeting this bit of land so they don't allow people to leave. And

they don't allow aid in. They are the ones stopping that from taking

place. And they are just giving people false promises to say. Bait

as you speak to your respective families inside Aleppo, do they want

to leave? And if they do, is there any realistic prospect they will be

able to? I think it's quite difficult at this point to leave

from Aleppo because it's not physically possible. Because they

don't trust the humanitarian forces? Nobody did, and the corridors don't

even exist. That's one thing. I spoke to a friend there and he told

me that at least in my house I know that I can die peacefully with my

family. But why would I go to a designated area to be killed by

those who are killing me everywhere I go? So for sure they do not trust

them. The other thing is, you want to leave out of Aleppo, to go where?

Turkey closed the borders, you cannot leave Syria. To Lebanon on is

almost impossible. To Jordan they closed the border as well. You have

no way out of Syria. As long as you are in Syria it is the same

situation. You go outside Aleppo, they are bombarding those areas as

well. My hometown has 30 air strikes today. There is no safe place to go

to. This is why the discussion is we need to provide those people with

safe areas. Those people need protection, and we should provide

them with that protection. I think there's also another aspect not

discussed as much. This is their home country. They don't want to

leave Syria, they want to rebuild Syria. We tend to forget, the

narrative is skewed and we tend to forget how this started. It started

five years ago with a revolution when people rose up asking for

freedom. People want to stay in their country and rebuild, they do

not want to be forced out of it, and for the bombardment to remain there

and for them not to be able to live a prosperous life in the place where

their grandparents lived in. So we tend to forget about that home

sentiment, national sentiment. We can't just uproot people from their

home and send them to another place full stop they are going to be

living isolated, for the rest of their lives.

There is another issue, which is solidarity. When I speak to my

parents, tell them they should leave and they say, we can't afford to

leave. So we are there with those people and their supper whatever

they suffer. -- they suffer. Those people other neighbours and friends,

they are not going to leave them there alone because believing that

place doesn't change the fact of those people will die maybe tomorrow

or the day after. The homes in their country are being destroyed. Thank

you for joining us. With just three weeks to go till

the start of the Paralympic games - we speak to Team GB's most decorated

female Paralympian, Sarah Storey - she'll be telling us

how she's preparing. But this comes amid fears

of a ?90 million shortfall Only 12% of tickets have been sold -

and there've been oversight issues - meaning some athletes may not be

able to afford to get to the games. Let's get some sport. Again, more

success on day 13 for Team GB but also an eighth Olympic gold medal

for the in comparable Usain Bolt, the Jamaican easily winning the 200

metres, he now goes in the four times 100 relay, he is aiming for an

unprecedented nightclub medal on the track. 56 medals so far for Great

Britain. Jade Jones retained her title in the tae kwon do, the same

one she won in London four years ago. A historic 1-2 for the Bradley

brothers, Alistair Brownlee beating Jenny Bramley by six seconds to

become the first man to win two Olympic titles -- Jonathan Bramley.

Tonight at nine p.m., Great Britain face the Netherlands in the final of

the hockey. It'll be a big one for them. Plenty more spoiled coming

throughout the day. -- more sport. Police in Essex say a boy who died

after being attacked by a dog It happened at Halstead

late yesterday. A 29-year-old woman has been

arrested for allegedly allowing a dog to be dangerously

out of control. The dog has been seized by police

and placed in kennels. The United States Olympic Committee

has apologised to the organisers of the Rio Olympics,

and the people of Brazil, for the behaviour of

a group of swimmers. The four, who include the gold

medallist Ryan Lochte, Brazilian police say they lied

to cover up an act of vandalism Latest reports say that Jimmy Fagan

is to pay $11,000 to a Brazilian On this programme yesterday

we heard calls for a post-Rio Olympic Games parade in Britain.

Now support appears to be growing. The Mayor of London,

Sadiq Khan, has said he is keen He said he was speaking

to the government and Olympic and Paralympic sports chiefs to find

the best way of celebrating the achievements of

British competitors. If I have my way, yes,

but we've got to talk to the government and the Olympic

and Paralympic chiefs. They will want it, that's

why I am optimistic, and what is important is we have got

the Paralympics coming up, I'm excited about that as

well, we celebrate our heroes returning home from Rio, Olympians

and Paralympians. The 2012 Paralympic Games were a

record success, a huge uptake in disability sport, but there is

concern about Rio. The International Paralympic

Committee has said there is ?90 million deficit

in funding for the Games. Only 12% of tickets have been sold,

and the funding shortfall means some athletes from smaller nations may

not be able to get to the games. On top of all that the Olympic

Broadcast Service has said it will only cover 13 out of the 22

Paralympic sports because of a We hope to speak to Britain's most

successful Paralympian of the modern era, and who is set to compete

in her seventh Paralympics. Here to talk to us is Craig Spence,

Director of Media and Communications at the International Paralympic

Committee. Rosemary Fraser is the campaigns

manager at Scope. First of all, Craig, I want to speak to you about

this ?90 million that seemingly has gone missing. Where has it gone? We

don't know. We have been working with the rear 2016 organising

committee for seven years now, and the budget has always been there for

the Paralympic Games. Two weeks ago when reopen the 16 informed us we

needed to make further cuts to the services we offer, that's when the

alarm bells started to ring, we have now looked into the books with the

organising committee and effectively we're talking ?75 million needed,

for the Games to be at the level they committed. And it's not fair,

we're wondering, how can we bring in more revenue and how can we make

further cuts to ensure the Games take place with the budget

available. As a competitor, does this affect people's preparations

for the Games when they are hearing things like, there's not enough

money, some nations might turn up and we have only sold 12% of

tickets? I think in my opinion, the coaching staff and the Paralympic

Association is from those countries that you have mentioned, have to

think logically, and they have to continue with the process of

training to the best of their ability. And hopefully, that senior

people within their positions will bring in that money and make sure

that the facilities are there. And at the Games is going to be a

fantastic spectacle for the Paralympic athletes mentioned.

Craig, how realistic is it that these nations, some of the poorer

nations who wait for that money to arrive in their accounts before they

broke the plane tickets, how realistic is it that they may not

appear, is it just scaremongering? It could happen, unfortunately. We

have been committed, some money from the Mayor, and some money from the

state-run companies within Brazil. However that still leaves us with a

deficit, but with the money coming in, we are optimistic we can start

to pay the travel grants which were due to be paid to our national

Paralympic committees at the end of July. The problem is, some of the

smaller countries don't buy their plane tickets to Rio until the grant

drop into their bank accounts. Purchasing tickets to Rio just a

matter of days before the opening ceremony would be very expensive

indeed and I think it's a real threat that ten countries won't be

able to afford to the Games so we are working with them and their

governments to see how can bring in extra revenue for them so we can

ensure that all 165 countries we want to compete other and lining up.

I'm pleased to say we can connect with Dame Sarah Storey, preparing

for her seventh Paralympics. I know you haven't heard all our

conversations so far, we have been talking about disappointing ticket

sales, this ?90 million deficit, does that damage your preparations,

is it some kind of distraction? Not at all. As an athlete, you very much

train to control the controller balls, things that happen outside

your preparations, there's nothing you can do, and your job doesn't

change you have to be able to perform to your very best in an

empty room. I said this ahead of London, people said you must be

excited about four houses and the woman from the crowd, I said

absolutely but if it is an empty room. -- the war from the crowd. See

don't think it will make a difference if there are empty

stadiums? If it does, then you are distracted by the wrong think you

have to focus what is happening in your lane, in your event, the crowd

can make a difference, especially in a home Games but if the crowds

aren't there, that's no excuse if someone would pat you on the head

and say you can have a gold medal anyway because they weren't enough

people cheering, is the way things are. We have been through tough

things before, I know people will work hard and learn lessons from

this. Are you disappointed by the situation? I was saying in the

introduction that only 13 of the 22 Paralympic sport are going to be

televised because of this funding deficit, that must be disappointing?

Very disappointing, especially when you consider how little coverage we

get in between Paralympic Games, there has been no live coverage at

all since the London Games in 2012, so it's hugely disappointed, we have

a long way to go from the media perspective, to provide the live

feeds of people can take it up in the interim, it's the bonding at the

pinnacle of our sport isn't going to be televised. We are unfortunately a

little bit used to it now. You have been a huge aspiration to young

people, many the cup spot after London 2012, your preparations,

presumably feeling quite confident now? -- many the cup spot. I'm

putting everything into every single bit of training, I'm looking forward

to getting out on the start line. There's quite a lot of pressure,

after what Team GB have done at the Olympics, the cycling team, there's

probably a bit of expectation but we know you are used to delivering.

Pressure is something someone else puts on you, you put your own

pressure on yourself, it's about controlling what you can control,

you have to be able to perform when you sit in that start gate, on the

start line, looking along the track, whatever it is you're event you

can't allow those external things to distract you so you have to focus on

what you have done in training, no you are well prepared and can do the

best performance you can want the race gets underway. Before I let you

go, I know you have two get back to that all-important training, but

what is the feeling not only amongst cycling Paralympians but the team at

large? Is there a sense there are a lot of medals that can be one? Yes,

preparation has been the main focus for everybody, always has been, we

have been working away for weeks, months, years, to get to the start

line in the best shape we can be and when we get there, as the best

funded team in the world, there will be a lot of expectation and

hopefully everyone has prepared enough to be able to deliver.

Hopefully we will speak to you as and when you win a Paralympic medal!

Award to bring in Rosemary we were talking about how well London did at

engaging young people, filling stadiums, giving Paralympic sport a

platform. How frustrated are you at what we are hearing? It's incredibly

frustrating, thought we had cracked this. We did well at Beijing, London

was tremendous and now we are hearing this. It is sad for the

athletes who have trained so hard, who may not get there to compete,

especially from those smaller nations. That's more important

because it really helps in terms of thinking about how people view

disabled people more widely in society. Unfortunately I wonder if

this is what happens with disabled people, we forgotten about. I don't

make any difference between watching disabled and non-disabled athletes,

to me, I win is a win. So I think it's really disappointing. Is it

part of this Olympic overspend, it saying, it's only the Paralympics,

we can take money away? Unfortunately it feels like that, I

remember people saying, isn't it nice that those liberal go and

compete, like they had just decided they were going to do it the week

before, people don't understand the dedication and just the sheer hard

work that goes into training to compete at this level. We need to

see more and more disabled people in sport, also more widely, and I think

this really helps. It will help with funding, as we see with the success

of the cyclists, the funding they have received, if disabled sport

isn't getting that in the media, it won't flourish, younger disabled

people need those role models. Mark, you were a role member to some

of those younger people. As a Paralympian, you have to train

harder than the Olympians? I think going back to what the lady said

regarding funding, what that gives the individual or the athlete, as

Sarah Storey said earlier, to focus 100% on the process. The process for

an athlete, able-bodied or disabled is that they can actually focus on

training for instance, 25, 28, even 30 a week. Then letting the body

rest. Obviously when the body rests, that's when the magic happens. Then

they can set aside any other stress that will be related to their lives,

for instance. That's why certainly over the last two or three

Paralympic Games, that's why Paralympics GB naturally has done so

well. Because that funding has allowed the individual to train 100%

of their time and focus on that goal of bringing back that gold medal

from the Olympiad. Cregg, do you want to pick up on the point

Rosemary made that she feels like, because its Paralympic sport, the

Olympics can make a bit of their money, it doesn't matter, it's not

as important? I think this is just the Rio 2016 organising committee.

We saw it with Beijing, London, and we are seeing it with Tokyo, an

integrated budget where they treat both games equally. The Paralympic

Games has got a fantastic reputation for changing attitudes to

impairment. We saw with London 2012, one in ten people in the UK changed

attitudes towards people with a disability. Although we've only got

13 sports being broadcast live from Rio, we will have more broadcasters

than others showing pictures to 100 countries, we are expecting a TV

audience of 4 million people. We believe although we have these
