Day 6 Commonwealth Games Sportsday

Hello and welcome to Commonwealth Games Sportsday.

We're your last stop of the evening for all of the best action

from today, and I promise we'll get everything in before midnight.

Here's what's coming up on the programme:

Double delight for England's gymnasts.

The men's and women's teams take top honours, while Scotland win

Davies doubles Wales' women's gold medal tally, with victory

And we'll bring you the more amusing moments that you might

It's difficult to know where to start today.

We'll have news of Wales totting up their gold medal

tally at the Tollcross pool in a moment, but let's hop across to

the Hydro first, to get news of the home nations wining a whole

It is a sport of tumbles. And stumbles. The slightest mist step

can cost marks. Many of England and Scotland's gymnasts were Olympic

team-mates but pleasantries were put on hold and the English were dealt a

blow with Sam Oldham's first fault. England were now a man down. Step

England needed one final good routine on the high bar. Christine

Thomas sealed the deal. That is it, England confirmed as the

Commonwealth champions, but Scotland have their first ever medal in a

team event at the Commonwealth Games. Now it is down to England's

women to see if they can take two Gold medals in one day.

The beam is one of the toughest pieces of appointment and England

looked shaky. But European silver-medallist

Claudia Fragapane's fall routine was sublime and it kept England in the

lead -- complete routine. Wales took bronze. A golden day for the women

and men. We did the job, we have had fun, we

love the Commonwealth Games. A real data saver for all of British

gymnastics -- a real day to savour. Well, Scotland may have just missed

out on a team medal in the gymnastics, but Carnoustie

was the setting for yet another The host nation had already made

this their most successful Games, but today, Jen McIntosh became

the first Scottish woman to win With more on that and all

of the news from Hampden Park, the home of athletics at the Games,

here's Patrick Gearey. It is all about David Rudisha! How

quick will he be? That is a record! Unbelievable! What a privilege to be

here! A privilege afforded to Glasgow now

as well, David Rudisha, London Olympic champion 800m icon. One of

the big names of these Games. Number one in heat one, finishing

inevitably imposition one. In another 800m heat, things were

closer. England's Andrew Osagie and Wales's Joe Thomas to tangled -- at

tangled on the line and Andrew Osagie was very disappointed.

Meanwhile, another competitor was ready to go.

Greg Rutherford! That is big, that is beyond eight metres.

That was all he needed to reach the Long Jump final. He did stick around

longer to perform autograph duties, whatever the intentions of the

Stuart! Things were also comfortable for

Scotland's Eilidh Child, easily into the final, to delight -- to the

delight of Hampden Park! England's Laura Samuel is was not in

the Triple Jump, and a personal best and her a silver medal, in good

company -- Laura Samuel is. William Sharma was in sight of Gold

when equipped hurdle upset his rhythm. And there was no catching

them Jamaican runner. -- the Jamaican. Ashley Bryant just

had the 1,500 metres race to go. He crosses the line third, in the board

for bronze, but it was enough for another English silver -- enough for

bronze. And England got second in this race.

And England's Nick Miller through nearly 73 metres for silver in the

man's hammer, and Scotland took the bronze.

Today was the entrance of the wrestling, a theatre of power and

pain. For England's Rattigan, it was physical and emotional, she settled

for silver despite being favourite in her division. Mike Grundy took 40

seconds to smash his way to one of two bronzes for England, and Wales

got their first ever Commonwealth wrestling medal.

21-year-old shooter can reverse is competing in his first senior event

and he was doing more than competing -- Dan Rivers. He surprised everyone

by taking Gold for England. Jen McIntosh won a silver to make a

Scotland's most decorated competitor, taking over from her

mum. Dashed to make her. -- to make her. This Englishman also had a Gold

and he picked out another. And with the Queen's prose -- price, you also

get a lift to the stadium. -- prize. Plenty more medals to be won over

the next five days, but it was the last night

of swimming at these Games. And what a successful night it has

been for England, Wales and Scotland with Ben Proud winning

the blue ribbon event, the 50-metre freestyle, Wales' women waiting 40

years for a gold in the pool and now winning a second within 24 hours,

and Dan Wallace with a second success to delight

the swimming fraternity. Glasgow 2014 will be remembered as

the Games that exceeded the expectations of the hosts and also

England in the swimming pool. And there has been plenty to celebrate

if you are Welsh. After this history making victory I

just call in, Wales secured their second women's old with Georgia

Davies sprinting in a Games record of 27.56 seconds. -- by Jazz Carlin.

Just Colin also took silver again. In this sprint from Daniel Jervis

secured him a medal -- and this sprint.

There was an even more in oppressive victory over the leading Australians

in this 50-metre freestyle. Dan Wallace took Scotland's medal

collection into double fingers, with silver over 200 m -- into double

figures. South African Chad le Clos was third. Fran Halsall could not

sprint to the tree but the Englishmen would hold on, Adam Brown

dragging his team to a new Commonwealth record.

-- sprinted to victory. Tougher challenges will lie ahead

next year against the legs of the USA and China, but after a

disappointing London Olympics, Britain has a group of youngsters

they can be very optimistic about. Let's have a look

at the day's other stories. Scotland's Reece McFadden is

guaranteed at least a bronze medal, after reaching the semi-finals

of the flyweight division. McFadden beat Botswana's Oteng Oteng

via a unanimous decision While England's Joe Joyce has

also secured a medal in the super heavyweight category, after

he made it to the semi finals. English boxer Natasha Jonas is out

of the lightweight competition, after a split decision defeat to

Australia's Shelley Watts. But Wales' Charlene

Jones is through. She beat Hansika Arach-chi of

Sri Lanka on a unanimous decision. Wales's hopes of qualifying

for the semi-finals of the netball are over, after they

were beaten 61-41 by South Africa. While a win for New Zealand over

St Lucia ended Scotland's hopes But England will make the

semi-finals if they beat Barbados tomorrow, that's after their victory

over Trinidad and Tobago today. Nigeria's 16-year-old gold medallist

Chika Amalaha has become the first athlete

at the Games to fail a drugs test. Amalaha won a weightlifting gold

on Friday, but has been provisionally suspended

until her 'B' sample can be tested. The track cycling events may be

over, but Sunday sees Olympic silver medallist Emma Pooley compete

for England in the road race. Joining in with Neil Diamond!

This Camden boxer is a man who clearly enjoys himself what he is

not always a nice guy, with this unorthodox double punch for example.

The Badminton official needed to take cover here, a shuttlecock

hitting him right in the face. There was certainly no kissing in

wrestling, it is about the chase. Up, down and around the mat. And

with five Gold medals on offer, two went to Canada and three to India.

And this athlete seems pretty happily -- happy, despite not

winning. This was the winner, from Papa New Guinea. And this is how not

to do it. Bailey Rogers going the way most of us would. The same could

not be said of the winner. Breaking the Commonwealth record. That was

not the only thing broken on day six.

Goodness me! Welsh hockey player Michael Shaw almost took the roof

off. We all make mistakes and there were more in today's mountain

biking. Painful to watch and to compete in. Unless you win, of

course. Canadian Catharine Pendrel did. And there was a New Zealand one

and two on the mend's event. Further back was 48-year-old William Kelly

of Swaziland, it was not easy for the veteran but he made it in the

end. He could have been there all night.

The action is over for the night, so let's have a look

at the medal table, with five days of the Games left.

Scotland have been overtaken by Canada. Scotland fourth with 13.

We've been taking a look behind the scenes of the

Commonwealth Games on this show, with our reporter Chris Mclaughlin.

We have been used to the famous faces and we have had a very

Scottish base. This is a favourite, the shooter

Mike Gilligan met a famous face today, Sir Jackie Stewart. Check out

his attire. Leaving no one in doubt as to who he is supporting. Look at

those trousers! David won the squash Gold yesterday.

She was with the mascot Clyde, showing off her Gold medal. Clyde is

proving popular in these Games. And finally, the new Commonwealth

100m champion showing of his Gold medal. Bailey-Cole. Having a nibble,

like Rafael Nadal. And they have now met sporting

royalty. The Royal family have been

everywhere. We have had the Dutch family. The Duke of Cambridge

meeting Usain Bolt. And asking each other if a work out. I am not sure

if Prince Harry works out at safe to say that Usain Bolt does.

And tomorrow? More gymnastics, more boxing tomorrow. McColgan in the

steeplechase. Daughter of Liz McColgan. 20 happening tomorrow. And

plenty of Gold models on offer. -- plenty.

That's all from Commonwealth Games Sportsday. Good

night from Glasgow. I leave the ashram, travel halfway

across the world to find my father, Oh, well. As Vashrati says,

gotta keep smiling!
