:02:02. > :02:04.can cost marks. Many of England and Scotland's gymnasts were Olympic

:02:05. > :02:13.team-mates but pleasantries were put on hold and the English were dealt a

:02:51. > :02:53.Commonwealth champions, but Scotland have their first ever medal in a

:02:54. > :03:00.team event at the Commonwealth Games. Now it is down to England's

:03:01. > :03:03.women to see if they can take two Gold medals in one day.

:03:04. > :03:08.The beam is one of the toughest pieces of appointment and England

:03:09. > :03:11.looked shaky. But European silver-medallist

:03:12. > :03:17.Claudia Fragapane's fall routine was sublime and it kept England in the

:03:18. > :03:22.lead -- complete routine. Wales took bronze. A golden day for the women

:03:23. > :03:26.and men. We did the job, we have had fun, we

:03:27. > :03:29.love the Commonwealth Games. A real data saver for all of British

:03:30. > :03:38.gymnastics -- a real day to savour. Well, Scotland may have just missed

:03:39. > :03:41.out on a team medal in the gymnastics, but Carnoustie

:03:42. > :03:43.was the setting for yet another The host nation had already made

:03:44. > :03:47.this their most successful Games, but today, Jen McIntosh became

:03:48. > :03:50.the first Scottish woman to win With more on that and all

:03:51. > :03:56.of the news from Hampden Park, the home of athletics at the Games,

:03:57. > :04:11.here's Patrick Gearey. It is all about David Rudisha! How

:04:12. > :04:19.quick will he be? That is a record! Unbelievable! What a privilege to be

:04:20. > :04:26.here! A privilege afforded to Glasgow now

:04:27. > :04:31.as well, David Rudisha, London Olympic champion 800m icon. One of

:04:32. > :04:37.the big names of these Games. Number one in heat one, finishing

:04:38. > :04:42.inevitably imposition one. In another 800m heat, things were

:04:43. > :04:53.closer. England's Andrew Osagie and Wales's Joe Thomas to tangled -- at

:05:02. > :05:05.Greg Rutherford! That is big, that is beyond eight metres.

:05:06. > :05:11.That was all he needed to reach the Long Jump final. He did stick around

:05:12. > :05:14.longer to perform autograph duties, whatever the intentions of the

:05:15. > :05:17.Stuart! Things were also comfortable for

:05:18. > :05:24.Scotland's Eilidh Child, easily into the final, to delight -- to the

:05:25. > :05:29.delight of Hampden Park! England's Laura Samuel is was not in

:05:30. > :05:35.the Triple Jump, and a personal best and her a silver medal, in good

:05:36. > :05:39.company -- Laura Samuel is. William Sharma was in sight of Gold

:05:40. > :05:46.when equipped hurdle upset his rhythm. And there was no catching

:05:47. > :05:54.them Jamaican runner. -- the Jamaican. Ashley Bryant just

:05:55. > :05:59.had the 1,500 metres race to go. He crosses the line third, in the board

:06:00. > :06:08.for bronze, but it was enough for another English silver -- enough for

:06:09. > :06:13.bronze. And England got second in this race.

:06:14. > :06:19.And England's Nick Miller through nearly 73 metres for silver in the

:06:20. > :06:22.man's hammer, and Scotland took the bronze.

:06:23. > :06:30.Today was the entrance of the wrestling, a theatre of power and

:06:31. > :06:33.pain. For England's Rattigan, it was physical and emotional, she settled

:06:34. > :06:38.for silver despite being favourite in her division. Mike Grundy took 40

:06:39. > :06:44.seconds to smash his way to one of two bronzes for England, and Wales

:06:45. > :06:49.got their first ever Commonwealth wrestling medal.

:06:50. > :06:56.21-year-old shooter can reverse is competing in his first senior event

:06:57. > :07:01.and he was doing more than competing -- Dan Rivers. He surprised everyone

:07:02. > :07:04.by taking Gold for England. Jen McIntosh won a silver to make a

:07:05. > :07:11.Scotland's most decorated competitor, taking over from her

:07:12. > :07:19.mum. Dashed to make her. -- to make her. This Englishman also had a Gold

:07:20. > :07:23.and he picked out another. And with the Queen's prose -- price, you also

:07:24. > :07:30.get a lift to the stadium. -- prize. Plenty more medals to be won over

:07:31. > :07:33.the next five days, but it was the last night

:07:34. > :07:36.of swimming at these Games. And what a successful night it has

:07:37. > :07:39.been for England, Wales and Scotland with Ben Proud winning

:07:40. > :07:41.the blue ribbon event, the 50-metre freestyle, Wales' women waiting 40

:07:42. > :07:45.years for a gold in the pool and now winning a second within 24 hours,

:07:46. > :07:47.and Dan Wallace with a second success to delight

:07:48. > :07:52.the swimming fraternity. Glasgow 2014 will be remembered as

:07:53. > :07:55.the Games that exceeded the expectations of the hosts and also

:07:56. > :07:59.England in the swimming pool. And there has been plenty to celebrate

:08:00. > :08:05.if you are Welsh. After this history making victory I

:08:06. > :08:11.just call in, Wales secured their second women's old with Georgia

:08:12. > :08:23.Davies sprinting in a Games record of 27.56 seconds. -- by Jazz Carlin.

:08:24. > :08:29.Just Colin also took silver again. In this sprint from Daniel Jervis

:08:30. > :08:33.secured him a medal -- and this sprint.

:08:34. > :08:38.There was an even more in oppressive victory over the leading Australians

:08:39. > :08:44.in this 50-metre freestyle. Dan Wallace took Scotland's medal

:08:45. > :08:53.collection into double fingers, with silver over 200 m -- into double

:08:54. > :08:58.figures. South African Chad le Clos was third. Fran Halsall could not

:08:59. > :09:04.sprint to the tree but the Englishmen would hold on, Adam Brown

:09:05. > :09:11.dragging his team to a new Commonwealth record.

:09:12. > :09:15.-- sprinted to victory. Tougher challenges will lie ahead

:09:16. > :09:20.next year against the legs of the USA and China, but after a

:09:21. > :09:22.disappointing London Olympics, Britain has a group of youngsters

:09:23. > :09:27.they can be very optimistic about. Let's have a look

:09:28. > :09:30.at the day's other stories. Scotland's Reece McFadden is

:09:31. > :09:32.guaranteed at least a bronze medal, after reaching the semi-finals

:09:33. > :09:34.of the flyweight division. McFadden beat Botswana's Oteng Oteng

:09:35. > :09:37.via a unanimous decision While England's Joe Joyce has

:09:38. > :09:41.also secured a medal in the super heavyweight category, after

:09:42. > :09:43.he made it to the semi finals. English boxer Natasha Jonas is out

:09:44. > :09:46.of the lightweight competition, after a split decision defeat to

:09:47. > :09:48.Australia's Shelley Watts. But Wales' Charlene

:09:49. > :09:52.Jones is through. She beat Hansika Arach-chi of

:09:53. > :10:04.Sri Lanka on a unanimous decision. Wales's hopes of qualifying

:10:05. > :10:06.for the semi-finals of the netball are over, after they

:10:07. > :10:09.were beaten 61-41 by South Africa. While a win for New Zealand over

:10:10. > :10:12.St Lucia ended Scotland's hopes But England will make the

:10:13. > :10:15.semi-finals if they beat Barbados tomorrow, that's after their victory

:10:16. > :10:20.over Trinidad and Tobago today. Nigeria's 16-year-old gold medallist

:10:21. > :10:22.Chika Amalaha has become the first athlete

:10:23. > :10:24.at the Games to fail a drugs test. Amalaha won a weightlifting gold

:10:25. > :10:26.on Friday, but has been provisionally suspended

:10:27. > :10:35.until her 'B' sample can be tested. The track cycling events may be

:10:36. > :10:40.over, but Sunday sees Olympic silver medallist Emma Pooley compete

:10:41. > :11:00.for England in the road race. Joining in with Neil Diamond!

:11:01. > :11:08.This Camden boxer is a man who clearly enjoys himself what he is

:11:09. > :11:14.not always a nice guy, with this unorthodox double punch for example.

:11:15. > :11:20.The Badminton official needed to take cover here, a shuttlecock

:11:21. > :11:23.hitting him right in the face. There was certainly no kissing in

:11:24. > :11:29.wrestling, it is about the chase. Up, down and around the mat. And

:11:30. > :11:43.with five Gold medals on offer, two went to Canada and three to India.

:11:44. > :11:47.And this athlete seems pretty happily -- happy, despite not

:11:48. > :11:52.winning. This was the winner, from Papa New Guinea. And this is how not

:11:53. > :11:59.to do it. Bailey Rogers going the way most of us would. The same could

:12:00. > :12:04.not be said of the winner. Breaking the Commonwealth record. That was

:12:05. > :12:10.not the only thing broken on day six.

:12:11. > :12:15.Goodness me! Welsh hockey player Michael Shaw almost took the roof

:12:16. > :12:19.off. We all make mistakes and there were more in today's mountain

:12:20. > :12:26.biking. Painful to watch and to compete in. Unless you win, of

:12:27. > :12:31.course. Canadian Catharine Pendrel did. And there was a New Zealand one

:12:32. > :12:36.and two on the mend's event. Further back was 48-year-old William Kelly

:12:37. > :12:40.of Swaziland, it was not easy for the veteran but he made it in the

:12:41. > :12:47.end. He could have been there all night.

:12:48. > :12:50.The action is over for the night, so let's have a look

:12:51. > :12:56.at the medal table, with five days of the Games left.

:12:57. > :13:05.Scotland have been overtaken by Canada. Scotland fourth with 13.

:13:06. > :13:07.We've been taking a look behind the scenes of the

:13:08. > :13:11.Commonwealth Games on this show, with our reporter Chris Mclaughlin.

:13:12. > :13:16.We have been used to the famous faces and we have had a very

:13:17. > :13:22.Scottish base. This is a favourite, the shooter

:13:23. > :13:29.Mike Gilligan met a famous face today, Sir Jackie Stewart. Check out

:13:30. > :13:35.his attire. Leaving no one in doubt as to who he is supporting. Look at

:13:36. > :13:42.those trousers! David won the squash Gold yesterday.

:13:43. > :13:48.She was with the mascot Clyde, showing off her Gold medal. Clyde is

:13:49. > :13:51.proving popular in these Games. And finally, the new Commonwealth

:13:52. > :14:00.100m champion showing of his Gold medal. Bailey-Cole. Having a nibble,

:14:01. > :14:03.like Rafael Nadal. And they have now met sporting

:14:04. > :14:07.royalty. The Royal family have been

:14:08. > :14:14.everywhere. We have had the Dutch family. The Duke of Cambridge

:14:15. > :14:19.meeting Usain Bolt. And asking each other if a work out. I am not sure

:14:20. > :14:25.if Prince Harry works out at safe to say that Usain Bolt does.

:14:26. > :14:34.And tomorrow? More gymnastics, more boxing tomorrow. McColgan in the

:14:35. > :14:40.steeplechase. Daughter of Liz McColgan. 20 happening tomorrow. And

:14:41. > :14:46.plenty of Gold models on offer. -- plenty.

:14:47. > :14:53.That's all from Commonwealth Games Sportsday. Good

:14:54. > :15:02.night from Glasgow. I leave the ashram, travel halfway

:15:03. > :15:08.across the world to find my father, Oh, well. As Vashrati says,

:15:09. > :15:13.gotta keep smiling!
