England wins the first gold medal of the Games.

:00:53.:00:53.

Brownlee takes the gold medal in Glasgow.

:00:54.:01:00.

It is a gold medal to the world champions of New Zealand.

:01:01.:01:06.

Anna Meares wins a gold medal for Australia.

:01:07.:01:12.

A standing ovation from the crowd, their first gold medal for Scotland!

:01:13.:01:22.

20 gold medals won across the Games yesterday,

:01:23.:01:32.

England dominated the triathlon, but it was all about Scotland

:01:33.:01:36.

In a moment, we'll look back on the medals won there and in the track.

:01:37.:01:44.

Another great day awaits, and here's the action we have

:01:45.:01:46.

We'll have the best of the early action

:01:47.:01:56.

at the badminton, as Wales get underway in the mixed team event.

:01:57.:02:00.

Then we're off to one of the hits of the games, the judo,

:02:01.:02:06.

which has become something of a Scottish fortress.

:02:07.:02:13.

It'll be just as noisy at the Tollcross Swimming Centre.

:02:14.:02:15.

England's Fran Halsall will be in the water for the first time.

:02:16.:02:21.

There's sure to be a roar then when the local favourites

:02:22.:02:24.

Ross Murdoch and Michael Jamieson take to the water again.

:02:25.:02:28.

And we'll have Georgia Davies on our minds.

:02:29.:02:34.

The Welsh medal hope goes in the 100m backstroke heats.

:02:35.:02:42.

So, here's the timings for you to plan your morning.

:02:43.:02:46.

In a moment, we'll be looking forward to the day's swimming,

:02:47.:02:49.

and taking a look back on a dramatic evening in the pool.

:02:50.:02:55.

Gold medallist David Carry is with us for that.

:02:56.:02:57.

Then we'll look forward to the day?s cycling,

:02:58.:03:00.

and talk about whether England's Olympic Sprint champion Jason Kenny

:03:01.:03:03.

can rediscover his form, or will the Australians dominate again?

:03:04.:03:05.

Then, at around 9.40am, we're off to the badminton,

:03:06.:03:09.

followed by judo as it?s the turn of the men in the 63 kg division, and

:03:10.:03:13.

Then, at 10.30am, it's back to the pool,

:03:14.:03:18.

BBC Three is also on from nine o'clock in the morning every day.

:03:19.:03:27.

And today they are showing Wales against India in the men's hockey.

:03:28.:03:33.

And, on the Red Button, that match between Wales and Canada

:03:34.:03:36.

You can watch all the tie live there.

:03:37.:03:39.

We'll show you some of the best action here on BBC One later.

:03:40.:03:42.

And, don't forget, on some digital platforms,

:03:43.:03:44.

you can press red, and then the blue menu, to get even more sports live.

:03:45.:03:48.

And every sport is live on the website, at bbc.co.uk/glasgow2014.

:03:49.:03:51.

What a night it was in the swimming pool especially for Scotland. David

:03:52.:04:21.

Carry will be talking about that. Let us take a look back on the 200m

:04:22.:04:27.

breaststroke final featuring Michael Jamieson. It did not go quite as

:04:28.:04:30.

expected. Take your marks.

:04:31.:04:44.

A great start, a huge roar from the crowd as they started. A really good

:04:45.:04:49.

first 15 minutes for Andrew Willis of England, probably the best start.

:04:50.:04:55.

Also, the former world record holder closest to us with the yellow Hat,

:04:56.:05:01.

from Australia. As expected, going out fast, but in the heat, he paid

:05:02.:05:07.

for it. It is his only tactic. He was talking himself down all week on

:05:08.:05:12.

this event, he might pull out of it.

:05:13.:05:16.

I will be surprised if he holds it. And in the second lane, a really

:05:17.:05:24.

good swimmer in the Black Hat. Jamieson is looking very strong.

:05:25.:05:29.

Ross Murdoch, to the right of the other lanes. Jamieson and Murdoch.

:05:30.:05:39.

This might push Jamieson to a record, I am not sure. It is hard to

:05:40.:05:42.

call. Now, Jamieson is starting to go, the

:05:43.:05:53.

blue hat in the centre is Michael Jamieson. This is his strength, the

:05:54.:05:59.

third 50m. One lane closed it is his team-mate, Andrew Willis of

:06:00.:06:05.

England. They haven't dropped the rest of the field. The Scotsman is

:06:06.:06:10.

coming through in the centre. Ross Murdoch and Michael Jamieson

:06:11.:06:16.

are the only capable in the field to go under 33. This is so tight. Ross

:06:17.:06:22.

Murdoch has taken the lead. I don't think the record will go. Murdoch,

:06:23.:06:30.

Jamieson and Willis. Murdoch might be touching out at Silver.

:06:31.:06:36.

Ross Murdoch looking brilliant. The 20-year-old from Stirling

:06:37.:06:42.

University. He is coming away! Look at that will stop the world record

:06:43.:06:49.

line. Taking the gold medal for Scotland.

:06:50.:06:53.

-- look at that! An utterly brilliant swim. Can you

:06:54.:06:59.

believe it? Gold to Scotland, but not the person we thought. A gold

:07:00.:07:04.

medal to Ross Murdoch, silver to Michael Jamieson. That at that, he

:07:05.:07:10.

is realising what he has done. Look at the time. A new British record.

:07:11.:07:17.

Scottish champion this year in the 50m and 100m breast stroke. Now, the

:07:18.:07:27.

Commonwealth champion and the Commonwealth record holder in the

:07:28.:07:31.

200m breast stroke. Who would have thought it? Ross Murdoch, the gold

:07:32.:07:42.

medal going to Scotland. And Michael Jamieson.

:07:43.:07:48.

David, you were lucky to be there. That final race of the night capped

:07:49.:07:57.

off what a brilliant night that was. You could just see Ross on his face

:07:58.:08:04.

at the end, shock, the surprise. A guy who had been preparing for that

:08:05.:08:09.

race but not preparing win. He was a name hardly anyone thought

:08:10.:08:20.

would win. When was he spotted by the squad? A perfect example of

:08:21.:08:25.

someone brought through the Scottish swimming ranks.

:08:26.:08:28.

A promising age-group swimmer, selected for the junior squad. He

:08:29.:08:34.

went to Stirling University. He is still a student. He did not appear

:08:35.:08:40.

in London 2012. The first time he has done this. To come along and win

:08:41.:08:45.

is remarkable. He did it in a very good time.

:08:46.:08:54.

You can see the red line he is chasing, the world record time, he

:08:55.:09:02.

is fractions behind. The second quickest of all time in that event.

:09:03.:09:08.

A truly world-class swim. He has a great future ahead judging from

:09:09.:09:11.

this. His first international competition

:09:12.:09:16.

on this scale. In two years, the Rio Olympics is in

:09:17.:09:22.

his sights. The remarkable thing is, if you see the red line he is

:09:23.:09:26.

chasing, this is not his best event. His best event comes today.

:09:27.:09:31.

He will be in the heats this morning.

:09:32.:09:36.

He beat Michael Jamieson who ended up with a silver medal. If you could

:09:37.:09:44.

see it on Ross Murdoch's face, it was clearly difficult for Jamieson.

:09:45.:09:49.

Ross was not preparing to win, Michael was. He had set his heart on

:09:50.:09:55.

this, this is where he grew up. The homeboy story. In the build-up to

:09:56.:10:02.

the Games, you saw posters of him everywhere. The incredible thing is

:10:03.:10:08.

he has inspired so many people. But not to get the fairy tale ending is

:10:09.:10:12.

heartbreaking. You can see the emotion, I am getting emotional now.

:10:13.:10:17.

Knowing the journey he has been on. It is heartbreaking to see. He is a

:10:18.:10:24.

resilient guy. Disappointed after London 2012, winning a silver medal.

:10:25.:10:31.

Even more disappointed here. He was there on the podium.

:10:32.:10:37.

Incredibly emotional for all supporters of Team Scotland and

:10:38.:10:39.

everyone watching that gold medal being awarded. Here is the ceremony.

:10:40.:10:49.

SCOTTISH VICTORY ANTHEM PLAYS: "Flower of Scotland"

:10:50.:10:58.

To hear the music bring out in the Tollcross Swimming Centre must have

:10:59.:11:05.

been incredible. You can hear the crowd in the background singing

:11:06.:11:10.

along. Those moments are the epitome of everything. Those moments, you

:11:11.:11:16.

remember, your family and friends, the sacrifices they have made. That

:11:17.:11:21.

is why the emotion comes out. It is not just a piece of metal, a moment

:11:22.:11:27.

on the podium, it represents so much. A lifetime of work, and wish,

:11:28.:11:31.

excitement to get to that moment. They will be back in competition

:11:32.:11:42.

later today. That wasn't the only Scottish gold medal. Here is the

:11:43.:11:46.

women's 400m individual medley. COMMENTATOR: About half a second

:11:47.:12:00.

lead for I Aimee Willmott. They have two legs left. I have got to tell

:12:01.:12:11.

you, Hannah Miley is coming back again, with the white hat, coming

:12:12.:12:16.

back very fast. Did Willmott go out too quickly?

:12:17.:12:21.

The crowd will lift Hannah Miley to a gold medal. She is digging in.

:12:22.:12:28.

Both are brilliant 400m swimmers. Miley looks like she has taken the

:12:29.:12:34.

lead, the crowd is going nuts. Willmott is looking the right way.

:12:35.:12:40.

It looks like Miley has got it. This is very tough, the atmosphere

:12:41.:12:44.

is extraordinary. The Scottish team are on their feet, and the crowd. No

:12:45.:12:50.

Scottish person has ever won a medal in the swimming pool, in Scotland,

:12:51.:12:58.

and this is a brilliant swim. You can see the British record. She has

:12:59.:13:04.

got the gold medal! Hannah Miley, for Scotland. What a start for the

:13:05.:13:09.

Commonwealth Games here in Glasgow. A brilliant swim from Hannah Miley.

:13:10.:13:17.

Silver to Aimee Willmott. The bronze medal has gone to Australia. But the

:13:18.:13:23.

crowd is on its feet, saluting double champion, well done, Hannah

:13:24.:13:30.

Miley. It is the result everyone has been

:13:31.:13:35.

wanting. The first race at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. A

:13:36.:13:39.

gold medal goes to Hannah Miley of Scotland. Absolutely brilliant.

:13:40.:13:50.

A new Commonwealth Games record. And the crowd is standing to salute a

:13:51.:13:53.

Scottish heroine. So, David, a fantastic start to the

:13:54.:14:35.

games. We will be speaking about the judo later on this morning. What a

:14:36.:14:38.

way to start the games? Absolutely. The show stopper right

:14:39.:14:45.

at the beginning we were looking for. Team Scotland were very brave.

:14:46.:14:52.

They manipulated the schedule is to make sure we had some good

:14:53.:14:55.

opportunities to win medals from the start, and it paid off. You can see

:14:56.:15:04.

the media today. It is so inspiring. Inspiring for the athletes to see

:15:05.:15:07.

early medals like that. The whole team will be on a high

:15:08.:15:12.

because of that. Back in Melbourne, the first day, when we won two gold

:15:13.:15:17.

medals, the whole team was lifted. A feeling of we can do this. You can

:15:18.:15:23.

see that in the swimming pool, in the whole team but across the

:15:24.:15:24.

nation. It is inspiring. courtesy of Hannah Miley. She really

:15:25.:15:46.

had a reason to smile. Absolutely. One word that describes

:15:47.:15:55.

her as resilient. In 2012 she came fifth having been absolutely

:15:56.:16:00.

expected to win a medal. So disappointed, she had to make

:16:01.:16:08.

changes to her practices, and one last night.

:16:09.:16:13.

Incredible to watch, it was only in those last couple of lengths that

:16:14.:16:17.

she took it away. Absolutely. And to know that your

:16:18.:16:23.

parents may well be ahead of you, but it is OK, it was calm and

:16:24.:16:29.

relaxed, putting all the right effort in. I was in the crowd

:16:30.:16:36.

shouting and screaming at her, it is why I am a bit hoarse today. It was

:16:37.:16:44.

truly amazing and they use the word inspiration. The feeling of

:16:45.:16:50.

excitement that the swim generator, right from the start, was amazing.

:16:51.:16:58.

-- generated. A very tight turnaround this morning

:16:59.:17:03.

for people like Michael Jamieson and Ross Murdoch. They will be back in

:17:04.:17:10.

the pool. This is the timetable today:

:17:11.:17:30.

Out of this line-up, Michael Jamieson and Ross Murdoch back in

:17:31.:17:38.

the pool today, have you any predictions?

:17:39.:17:45.

It is so difficult to predict. Both will be hugely full of emotion.

:17:46.:17:55.

Michael want have -- Ross will not have got back to the village until

:17:56.:18:01.

very late last night because of all the duties, the doping, and... So it

:18:02.:18:11.

is not a choice? And he will be buzzing.

:18:12.:18:15.

It is the biggest moment of his entire life. And he has then go to

:18:16.:18:23.

sleep, eat, get up this morning, and compete again this morning.

:18:24.:18:28.

And you say he now has a better event?

:18:29.:18:36.

His main event! We could see him on the podium again. There is a truly

:18:37.:18:43.

world-class field in the swimming pool. World record holders, the

:18:44.:18:50.

world number one, Adam Beattie of England, ranked number two in the

:18:51.:18:55.

world, she was using the 200 metres as a warm up!

:18:56.:19:04.

It gives you a sense of the strength of the field. We will talk to you

:19:05.:19:13.

again as the competition continues. A fantastic start at the Tollcross

:19:14.:19:17.

International Swimming Centre. And equal excitement expected when the

:19:18.:19:20.

Bradley Wiggins took part in his only event of the Games, but it did

:19:21.:19:30.

not quite go to script. The return to track racing Bradley

:19:31.:19:35.

Wiggins. But England have got their hands full with this Australia

:19:36.:19:41.

team. They really are under pressure.

:19:42.:19:47.

It is going to form. Australia leading the way. Down to three, they

:19:48.:19:55.

really were putting the hammer down, and have put themselves under

:19:56.:20:01.

pressure. Will the numerical disadvantage make a difference? No,

:20:02.:20:09.

the lead has gone up! England really are on the ropes.

:20:10.:20:15.

A sensational time, England have two settle for silver.

:20:16.:20:22.

And a sprint towards the line, desperately close! Just taken by

:20:23.:20:29.

England. This is a decisive race for gold.

:20:30.:20:42.

But England are just had too much speed for them! A tremendous final.

:20:43.:20:51.

This is not a knockout race. Stephanie Morton with the fastest

:20:52.:21:01.

time. Just two riders to come, including one of the great names in

:21:02.:21:11.

track cycling, Anna Mears. She is absolutely flying on that first lap.

:21:12.:21:17.

Victoria Williamson back in six place after that first lap. And it

:21:18.:21:25.

is a Commonwealth Games record! Gold for Australia.

:21:26.:21:31.

The final race at the end of an exciting opening day. The world

:21:32.:21:38.

champions in black, England in red and white. There is less than a 10th

:21:39.:21:50.

of a second in it! The world champions are under pressure.

:21:51.:21:56.

England just under three tenths of a second down. Dawkins leading the way

:21:57.:22:04.

for world champions New Zealand. Into the finishing straight... Gold

:22:05.:22:12.

for New Zealand! The Commonwealth Games record has gone. Called to the

:22:13.:22:31.

world champions. -- gold. Rob, you won gold in the 2006

:22:32.:22:38.

Commonwealth Games, what a great disappointment for Bradley Wiggins.

:22:39.:22:45.

I think so. Having been disappointed not making the selection for the

:22:46.:22:54.

Tour de France, then putting everything into this, the result

:22:55.:22:59.

will be disappointing, but this is only has a starting point for Rio.

:23:00.:23:06.

He sounded optimistic afterwards about his chances for Rio. Is he

:23:07.:23:11.

overplaying it? I don't think so. What the bride has

:23:12.:23:17.

set his sights on, he generally obtains. -- whatever Brad. She has

:23:18.:23:39.

an incredible palmares. I was surprised he did not do the time

:23:40.:23:43.

trial. But he has put everything into this event, and I think it was

:23:44.:23:47.

more about the processor than the actual outcome and result. Just a

:23:48.:23:52.

first step for the next two M years towards Rio.

:23:53.:23:58.

He was clear that he sees his future on the track rather than the road

:23:59.:24:02.

and was dismissive about the sphere surrounding road cycling. You share

:24:03.:24:09.

that, having done some road racing in your time.

:24:10.:24:15.

What he likes to do is throw the odd grenade and then run away giggling.

:24:16.:24:21.

But that was an interesting interview he did last night after

:24:22.:24:25.

the track. I think he is quite hurt after what happened last year on the

:24:26.:24:31.

road, his non-selection. But I don't think it is the end of his road

:24:32.:24:36.

career. And he needs the rest of that career to September for the

:24:37.:24:51.

team pursuit in Rio. -- to prepare. So they can go together?

:24:52.:24:57.

The road can give you back up for the track.

:24:58.:25:03.

The Australians were clearly superior in the end. Was it just a

:25:04.:25:08.

good night? It seemed to go to plan for them

:25:09.:25:15.

really. In qualification they were able to ride within themselves.

:25:16.:25:21.

Whereas the English boys had to go out on full gas because there were

:25:22.:25:27.

still two teams to follow them so they had no way of controlling their

:25:28.:25:33.

right. But when it got down to half distance, the Australians went down

:25:34.:25:39.

to three, then the third ride also began to drop off, but they held

:25:40.:25:47.

together extremely well. Where does that put them looking

:25:48.:25:54.

ahead to Rio? Are they favoured? They will certainly be a major

:25:55.:25:57.

factor in the gold medal. But actually have -- we have seen

:25:58.:26:08.

cycles, with teams dipping off then coming back up for the Olympics. You

:26:09.:26:12.

cannot keep that momentum going in between. It is just a shame that we

:26:13.:26:21.

have seen that at the Commonwealth Games.

:26:22.:26:25.

All eyes on the velodrome today. Games.

:26:26.:26:31.

Another English star of the Olympics, Jason Kenny.

:26:32.:26:39.

It is Jason Kenny, what a ride! You need a lot of power, you need to

:26:40.:26:52.

be very smooth. And speed and tactics? The best

:26:53.:27:05.

tactic is speed! I just want to win. Great Britain are Olympic team

:27:06.:27:12.

champions! And what a future this young lad has ahead of him.

:27:13.:27:18.

It feels like quite a long time ago. I was 20 in Beijing. Now I am

:27:19.:27:25.

26. I have been cycling seriously since the age of 14. This was my

:27:26.:27:33.

main goal, because I would be 24 in time for London, at my optimum.

:27:34.:27:41.

He wins the gold medal, and in style!

:27:42.:27:47.

What was London like you? How did life change?

:27:48.:27:52.

It was mental for a couple of weeks afterwards. But a few months down

:27:53.:28:00.

the line you slip back into normal life and training. I wanted to go

:28:01.:28:06.

well at the World Championships and they managed a gold medal.

:28:07.:28:15.

What a ride when it really mattered! So it was nice to back up that

:28:16.:28:20.

performance. I always look forward to the next event and do not spend

:28:21.:28:25.

long patting myself on the back. Chris Hawley -- Hoy bowed out, how

:28:26.:28:49.

have you taken the mantle? It has not got any easier. You

:28:50.:28:54.

always fight to win as many medals as possible. I have no Commonwealth

:28:55.:29:01.

medals yet, it would be nice to win, but it will not be easy, there is

:29:02.:29:07.

Australia, New Zealand are current world champions, so it will be a

:29:08.:29:08.

battle. world champions,

:29:09.:29:12.

And the timetable for this morning: And another busy day at the

:29:13.:29:44.

velodrome. Jason Kenny did not have an easy time getting into the

:29:45.:29:51.

quarterfinal. He did not. On top of the team sprint he also had

:29:52.:29:54.

qualification in the afternoon for the 200-metre sprint. Qualified in

:29:55.:30:01.

you live and place out of 12 qualifiers, the skin of his teeth.

:30:02.:30:08.

-- 11th. To be that far down was concerning. He is now up against

:30:09.:30:16.

Glazier, who qualified fastest. So it affects your position?

:30:17.:30:22.

As you go through the rounds, the fastest qualifiers always face the

:30:23.:30:28.

slowest qualifiers. So that makes his job harder?

:30:29.:30:39.

A lot harder. A stunning performance, a record in

:30:40.:30:46.

qualification. We have seen at least one Commonwealth record go in every

:30:47.:30:52.

single time event. In sum, two or three have gone in the rounds. It

:30:53.:30:58.

won't make Jason's job any easier. He has three different races, the

:30:59.:31:05.

best of three. For the women we will see Joanna

:31:06.:31:13.

Rowsell, the current world champion. In the individual pursuit. Backed up

:31:14.:31:22.

by Laura Trott and Danny King. Laura Trott is obviously world champion,

:31:23.:31:26.

multi-Olympic champion. Lots to look forward to in that event.

:31:27.:31:31.

This is the three of them racing together back in London, two years

:31:32.:31:34.

ago. That brings back the memories, the

:31:35.:31:39.

atmosphere in the velodrome here is on a par with London, it really is

:31:40.:31:45.

an incredible place to be. And the crowd, it doesn't matter what colour

:31:46.:31:48.

jersey crosses the line first, the crowd have been fantastic.

:31:49.:31:55.

A good velodrome, a good atmosphere. Everything is good. How have these

:31:56.:31:59.

three fared since London, what can we expect?

:32:00.:32:07.

These girls all seem, they had a bit of a dip, like most of the athletes

:32:08.:32:13.

after the Olympics. Generally, they have kept it on a level. They are

:32:14.:32:22.

young girls, they love riding their bikes. They haven't quite got into

:32:23.:32:32.

that, it is AJ Lee dog -- a daily job routine.

:32:33.:32:40.

Thank you. The cycling is all on BBC Three this morning.

:32:41.:32:43.

Before you go, Rob, just wanted to show you this.

:32:44.:32:46.

We all know what great cyclists Scotland produces,

:32:47.:32:47.

I love Glasgow for the character of it. I am looking at the place like a

:32:48.:33:15.

giant playground. I am always looking for some sort of perfection

:33:16.:33:20.

in writing. I am not competitive with other people, but I feel

:33:21.:33:28.

competitive with myself. It doesn't matter if it is 15 feet or 200 feet.

:33:29.:33:33.

It is important to me to feel I have done my very best and to make it

:33:34.:33:35.

look as easy as possible. You want to live in a city which

:33:36.:33:46.

allows you to be creative. Incredible, Danny McAskill. Some of

:33:47.:34:06.

that, I am sure you will have spotted, the crane behind our

:34:07.:34:09.

studios. You want to inspire people but that

:34:10.:34:14.

is the very extreme. Danny is an incredible brighter, I

:34:15.:34:18.

met him just as he was launching his first video. Talking to Chris Hoy

:34:19.:34:24.

yesterday, he said he wanted to ride across the roof of the velodrome on

:34:25.:34:30.

the side. It is only a few feet wide, but very high, but they would

:34:31.:34:33.

not allow him. I can see why they would not allow

:34:34.:34:38.

him! There are plenty of pretty scary places they have allowed him.

:34:39.:34:41.

You have two race off now. -- I know you've got to dash across

:34:42.:34:48.

the city to the velodrome now. At least you should see plenty

:34:49.:34:52.

of smiles on your way. Here's a little reminder

:34:53.:36:02.

of what's happening at the moment. You can see Wales in action

:36:03.:36:02.

against India in And on the Red Button, Wales are

:36:03.:36:04.

taking on Canada in the badminton. And don't forget to then press

:36:05.:36:10.

your blue menu button And if you want to see even more you

:36:11.:36:12.

can head to the website, where every individual sport will be

:36:13.:36:17.

streamed live. There's currently some badminton,

:36:18.:36:19.

table tennis and netball on there, Time to catch up with

:36:20.:36:22.

Ollie Williams. Ollie is keeping a close eye

:36:23.:36:30.

on social media as he dashes Not content with that, she actually

:36:31.:37:11.

sent a message on Twitter to say it tops the famous one at the Oscars

:37:12.:37:22.

party with Ellen de Generes. That has gone around the world. The Queen

:37:23.:37:27.

is a serial offender in this. If you look at this photo, you will find

:37:28.:37:34.

the Queen in the background, not smiling quite so broadly. Plenty of

:37:35.:37:40.

people had the Queen in the background of their shots.

:37:41.:37:44.

This photo was taken by Anna Meares, dining with the Queen at the

:37:45.:37:51.

time, in this next photo. She took a photo of her pudding instead! She

:37:52.:37:57.

wasn't allowed to eat it. She still has to compete, so she had to turn

:37:58.:38:03.

down pudding in front of the Queen. I have heard some of the staunchest

:38:04.:38:06.

food on offer in the Athletes' Village is also some of the most

:38:07.:38:10.

popular. Not everyone is as disciplined. Probably not too bad.

:38:11.:38:17.

What are you doing with your 71 club?

:38:18.:38:22.

It is currently six strong. I will tell you about the ten I am going to

:38:23.:38:26.

add to that. First of all, we have a challenge

:38:27.:38:30.

for anyone at the games back row to come up with a Commonwelfie -- at

:38:31.:38:37.

the Games. We have Scott Phillips out on

:38:38.:38:43.

Glasgow green a hive of activity during the opening ceremony. 10,000

:38:44.:38:48.

people packed there. Ian Harris braved the intense

:38:49.:38:55.

sunshine and took a Commonwelfie from there.

:38:56.:39:05.

And Rebecca Morton in this last one, with mascot Clyde, on the River

:39:06.:39:16.

Clyde. Please keep those coming in. If you are trying to teach your kids

:39:17.:39:21.

how to spell the word Commonwealth, don't go down route!

:39:22.:39:30.

And more about the athletes involved in the action.

:39:31.:39:42.

Dale Bennett paid tribute to Ross Murdoch.

:39:43.:39:53.

His tweet in capital letters said,, well champion! I think he is

:39:54.:39:56.

recovering from his podium experience.

:39:57.:40:04.

-- Commonwealth champion. Tell me about the mission?

:40:05.:40:14.

Trying to find an athlete to interview. The premise is simple,

:40:15.:40:19.

the execution may be difficult. An athlete to interview from all

:40:20.:40:26.

competing nations. I missed out on a triathlete from Bermuda. Today,

:40:27.:40:33.

there are ten coming up. The first of which will be at the

:40:34.:40:42.

weightlifting this morning. Those Australian weightlifters have

:40:43.:40:43.

Cambodian heritage, I want to find out more about them.

:40:44.:40:55.

And the Loy family from Papua New Guinea, five of them, all in the

:40:56.:41:02.

same table tennis team, including one of them who is the coach.

:41:03.:41:06.

You will have to race around the venues.

:41:07.:41:12.

The six you got yesterday? The Falkland islands, Mike Brownlee,

:41:13.:41:22.

badminton they are. To track cyclists from Ghana and Malaysia. --

:41:23.:41:25.

two. Ollie will be back here for Tonight

:41:26.:41:31.

at the Games every evening, hosted by Clare Balding and Mark Chapman,

:41:32.:41:34.

here on BBC One at 10.40pm. As well as the best

:41:35.:41:37.

of the day's action, they'll also have a live band in front of a

:41:38.:41:40.

studio audience and special guests. as planned. Oh!

:41:41.:42:58.

She has done it. Renicks, and her opponent goes over. A standing

:42:59.:43:01.

ovation from the crowd, their first gold medal for Scotland.

:43:02.:43:08.

He -- she took her apart, piece by piece, fantastic.

:43:09.:43:14.

Textbook from Renicks. Her tactics were superb. That was the way to do

:43:15.:43:20.

it. Closing her down. She put her under pressure.

:43:21.:43:33.

Tactically, her opponent was miles away.

:43:34.:43:38.

That turned it on its head. Oh, this will be interesting.

:43:39.:43:49.

She could get it on that. The referee is looking.

:43:50.:43:59.

Kelly Edwards who turned, didn't get a full rotation. She really could

:44:00.:44:05.

get it. If the referee is going to be consistent up to now, then Stott

:44:06.:44:14.

we have seen differently all day. So, she does get it. Renicks gets

:44:15.:44:22.

the gold, a second gold medal for the siblings. For me, they should

:44:23.:44:26.

not have given one of the penalties earlier on.

:44:27.:44:29.

No, it is never a nice way to win. it is what it is, a metal around the

:44:30.:44:47.

neck. What a start and I'm delighted to

:44:48.:44:57.

say that both sisters are with me this morning. What an incredible day

:44:58.:45:02.

it was, you provided Scotland with the best possible start, Kimberly!

:45:03.:45:14.

It was so moved writing. -- nerve wracking. I am ecstatic, let's hope

:45:15.:45:22.

we can keep it going. And Louise, you then did the same

:45:23.:45:30.

within an hour. We did not get to see each other for

:45:31.:45:33.

hours after that, Kimberly wasn't doping control. -- was in.

:45:34.:45:42.

So you did not even get to congratulate each other?

:45:43.:45:48.

We did not. But when we got back to the village at 1:30am I was dancing

:45:49.:45:56.

in the room! Did you watch any of her fight?

:45:57.:46:04.

In a small room on the TV. I could hear the crowd going mental. But I

:46:05.:46:09.

had to wait until I could finish what I was doing. We gave each other

:46:10.:46:23.

a couple. -- cuddle. It was good. How did you get into it?

:46:24.:46:30.

It was a family thing. My dad likes to do things for the community and

:46:31.:46:34.

he wanted to get us into fit is an self defence. -- fitness and.

:46:35.:46:43.

Everything in the environment we do together. Training, weights, travel,

:46:44.:46:53.

I would not want it any other way. It makes these moments special.

:46:54.:47:00.

Let's show everybody again. First of all, your fight, Kimberly. How tough

:47:01.:47:10.

was the competition? The Indian was very strong and had

:47:11.:47:13.

one big throw she had been catching people with all day.

:47:14.:47:20.

You had watched how she fought earlier in the day?

:47:21.:47:27.

Yes. You must focus on your own fight but keep an eye on who you

:47:28.:47:34.

might come up against. I didn't even know how to celebrate. I was just so

:47:35.:47:39.

happy! And Louise, you were up against... ?

:47:40.:47:49.

Kelli Edwards of England. It was quite a tactical fight. I'm somebody

:47:50.:47:54.

tries to attack all the time and get myself into difficult situations. So

:47:55.:48:00.

I knew this would be tactical and made sure I stayed really strong. It

:48:01.:48:06.

went to penalties. So the home or can you put in,

:48:07.:48:10.

judging who you might fight against, that is really important? --

:48:11.:48:18.

homework. Yes, and it really paid off on the

:48:19.:48:24.

day. First on the podium, getting your

:48:25.:48:30.

medal, in front of a home crowd. The crowd were amazing. Behind you

:48:31.:48:37.

all day. Even when you saw another Scottish person going out, whilst

:48:38.:48:41.

you were in the back warming up, your stomach would start churning.

:48:42.:48:47.

You think, they are behind me, I can do this.

:48:48.:48:53.

We had family, close friends, the governing body, every judo club in

:48:54.:49:05.

Scotland it seemed! We play rugby, recreationally, and they were all

:49:06.:49:14.

there with T-shirts. I was jumping around, screaming, I wish it had

:49:15.:49:20.

been on video. It probably is, somewhere! Do you

:49:21.:49:32.

now both have your sights on the Rio games?

:49:33.:49:38.

Yes, we will plan our competitions for the next two years. That is the

:49:39.:49:47.

next goal. What has been part of the common

:49:48.:49:54.

rock games taught you? -- Commonwealth.

:49:55.:49:59.

To make sure you are the fittest and healthiest you can be. It is a

:50:00.:50:06.

roller-coaster as an athlete, you are up and down all the time. But

:50:07.:50:11.

the support we have had from Scotland, the openness, telling the

:50:12.:50:18.

truth about how you feel, it has been a massive help. It is about

:50:19.:50:23.

hard work, determination, and the people you have supporting you.

:50:24.:50:29.

I have so much admiration for that determination and focus. You are now

:50:30.:50:40.

free to enjoy the rest of the Games. There are two days of judo

:50:41.:50:44.

competition left, we will go and support the rest of the team who

:50:45.:50:48.

were there for us. Then on Sunday we will go to the rugby finals because

:50:49.:50:53.

we are massive fans. Kimberly has friends in weightlifting. But we

:50:54.:50:58.

want to see all sorts of different sports, how they prepare, just

:50:59.:51:02.

generally getting behind Scotland, shouting for them. People got behind

:51:03.:51:10.

us who were not even part of the judo setup. It is only hitting me

:51:11.:51:16.

now. The emotion, all the support and there that we only know about

:51:17.:51:22.

now. A lady said to me, I was watching on the television with

:51:23.:51:27.

tears in my eyes. I said, what were they saying to make you cry?

:51:28.:51:37.

It was not the media, it was you! So, enjoy the rest of the Games, it

:51:38.:51:41.

has been fantastic to have you with us this morning.

:51:42.:51:52.

Badminton has already begun. Time now to catch up on the mixed team

:51:53.:51:58.

event between Canada and Wales. A reminder of what is at stake.

:51:59.:52:08.

Badminton is a fast-moving racquet sport. It requires agility,

:52:09.:52:16.

dexterity, and stamina, layers can cover to four miles in a standard

:52:17.:52:24.

match. You strike a shuttlecock over the 1.5 metre net. The unusual

:52:25.:52:35.

aerodynamic properties mean that it has a significantly higher top

:52:36.:52:40.

speed, 200 miles per hour. And a quicker deceleration than in other

:52:41.:52:47.

racquet sports. The game is decided when a player reaches 21 points, by

:52:48.:52:54.

a margin of at least two. Matches are the best-of-3. Six cool medals

:52:55.:53:00.

are for grabs in the men's, singles, and doubles competitions. As well as

:53:01.:53:10.

a combined mixed team event. We will concentrate on group D in

:53:11.:53:15.

the mixed team event. Eight of field in which only the top team is

:53:16.:53:19.

guaranteed to qualify, along with the two best runners up from the six

:53:20.:53:25.

groups. A loss for Wales yesterday means they really must beat Canada

:53:26.:53:31.

to have a chance of progressing. Each time is made up of five

:53:32.:53:40.

matches. This game was the best-of-3 sets, the Welsh had lost the first,

:53:41.:53:45.

and we join it at the start of the second.

:53:46.:54:11.

That is much better. Sailor Thomas is all over the place. -- Sarah. It

:54:12.:54:27.

is a tall order, they want to ask. But look at this, she is getting in

:54:28.:54:32.

front of Oliver. But as a trouble area. -- that is.

:54:33.:54:55.

A good flick serve. A shot she should not miss. Do the Welsh have a

:54:56.:55:03.

chance to damage this Canadian pair?

:55:04.:55:09.

More competitive start to the scheme than the first, which was essential

:55:10.:55:15.

from a Welsh perspective. -- to this game.

:55:16.:55:25.

Good play. A very soft block into an open space, just directing it,

:55:26.:55:34.

beautifully played. The vital third shot, well played by Alex Bruce.

:55:35.:55:38.

Serving really well. But as you said, a much better start

:55:39.:55:51.

to this second game. He is getting more into it now. The

:55:52.:56:35.

curse of the commentator! Yes! That is good play by Thomas. She

:56:36.:56:56.

really tried to move Bruce, it was good, play it clear, play the drop

:56:57.:57:03.

shot, and then down, very nice, good play.

:57:04.:57:14.

By far the best rally of the match by far. By far. What they rally it

:57:15.:57:26.

turned out to be. That will definitely boost the confidence.

:57:27.:57:36.

Too long playing with the drift, the Welsh, in this second game. A slight

:57:37.:57:45.

draught in the arena. That is neat. We have seen some

:57:46.:57:59.

lovely angle shots from the Canadians. He has a great touch, no

:58:00.:58:04.

doubt about that. Sorry! I can understand why she said

:58:05.:58:38.

sorry! She blocked it at the net but Bruce had already seen it. And that

:58:39.:58:41.

there was no angle to it, nothing. edge ahead. But a far better contest

:58:42.:59:14.

than the first game. 11-7 to the Canadians at the interval. This was

:59:15.:59:19.

the long, extended rally. Nice touch. That was missing at the start

:59:20.:59:24.

of the match. Good play. He is playing so well at

:59:25.:00:00.

the net, isn't he? He really has that touch. That was good. Aiming

:00:01.:00:08.

for that spot, and anticipated so well.

:00:09.:00:13.

That is out. Good fighting. Well played, I really think that was good

:00:14.:00:24.

play. But very well covered by Thomas. Be shot was a little behind

:00:25.:00:40.

him, it is so difficult then. -- the shuttlecock.

:00:41.:01:24.

Terrific, sustained attack. A little bit of variety. Then the power.

:01:25.:01:32.

Taking the pace away from that shot is not easy.

:01:33.:01:54.

Good play from the Canadians. A good attack. Impossible to get out of it.

:01:55.:02:13.

The third shot from Alex Bruce was really good, she served it really

:02:14.:02:17.

nicely. Bruce played it to the net. She knew where it was going. But he

:02:18.:02:38.

couldn't react in time. I must say, I have been very

:02:39.:02:58.

impressed with Toby Ng in this match. His positional play. He knows

:02:59.:03:02.

exactly where to cover. A very convincing victory for the

:03:03.:03:58.

Canadians. In the first part of that second game, it became pretty

:03:59.:04:01.

competitive. They steadily pulled away. And they should just why they

:04:02.:04:06.

are seeded in the individual mixed doubles event.

:04:07.:04:18.

That continues now live on the Red Button.

:04:19.:04:32.

We promised you some judo. We will have that for you. Here is your

:04:33.:04:35.

guide. Judo was first held at

:04:36.:04:43.

the Commonwealth Games in 1990. This is only the second occasion since

:04:44.:04:48.

then it has been staged. The aim is to throw your opponent to the

:04:49.:04:53.

ground, hold them down, or gain submission. The contest lasts five

:04:54.:04:57.

minutes, with points awarded for different throws and holds. The

:04:58.:05:01.

ultimate aim is to execute the which achieves the maximum score

:05:02.:05:04.

and guarantees victory. This can be achieved by throwing your opponent

:05:05.:05:12.

flat on their back, holding them down, and gaining submission with an

:05:13.:05:15.

armlock or stranglehold. If the scores are tied, the contest enters

:05:16.:05:18.

a golden score period, the first Let's go over to the SECC

:05:19.:05:21.

for the first bout of the morning. Ore Oduba will be watching this

:05:22.:05:37.

session for us, and a lot First, good morning to you. It is

:05:38.:05:54.

the only appropriate way to greet you here at the SECC. This is the

:05:55.:06:00.

hot ticket. We have a couple of fights going on. British interest

:06:01.:06:07.

will come very shortly. What a night last night, five gold medals up for

:06:08.:06:11.

grabs and all of them went to the home nations, three for England. And

:06:12.:06:21.

the two sisters, the privilege of getting the first gold medal for the

:06:22.:06:25.

home nation. A fantastic achievement. Scotland only got one

:06:26.:06:32.

gold medal in the last time judo was held in England. A fantastic

:06:33.:06:34.

achievement for them. There are four gold medals up for

:06:35.:06:45.

grabs now. I am pretty sure home nations fans will be hoping for the

:06:46.:06:56.

best. A packed 73 kilograms category for the men. We will be expecting

:06:57.:07:01.

one or two if not three of the medals on the podium.

:07:02.:07:06.

I will greet you properly as well. We had the Renicks sisters here. And

:07:07.:07:17.

talking about this fantastic atmosphere. It is incredible. What

:07:18.:07:24.

is really nice is to see they may be individual nations and territories,

:07:25.:07:29.

they are British competitors together.

:07:30.:07:35.

They had a terrible time in London. It came down to Gemma Gibbons

:07:36.:07:44.

delivering a silver medal. Together, the nations are enjoying each

:07:45.:07:53.

other's medals. A tight team. I am sure they will be enjoying success.

:07:54.:08:02.

All the gold medals for the home nations yesterday. They will be

:08:03.:08:06.

expecting the same today. Six, six home nations interests --

:08:07.:08:23.

interest. First it comes to Jan Gosiewski and Caoimhin Thompson.

:08:24.:08:29.

But first, Danny Williams against Connor Ireland. Let us go over to

:08:30.:08:37.

our commentators. Unbelievable. With ten seconds left

:08:38.:08:56.

to go. He did exactly what you said he should not do, which is to commit

:08:57.:09:01.

an error. It is not going to happen now.

:09:02.:09:09.

Looking at the video, saying he landed on his side and not his back.

:09:10.:09:21.

A waza ari is a near ippon. He had to roll onto his back almost

:09:22.:09:30.

completely. Now, Danny Williams going for the strangle. Can he get

:09:31.:09:36.

it? If that jacket is underneath. We can see it wasn't quite underneath

:09:37.:09:40.

the neck. It has to go around the throat. It sounds gruesome. Once it

:09:41.:09:47.

goes on, they tap to submit. Danny Williams, very good. But

:09:48.:09:55.

Connor Ireland is not giving up, representing Wales at the, what

:09:56.:09:59.

games. He is going to show everything he has got.

:10:00.:10:08.

He put on a fantastic show at the UK schools games, always a tense

:10:09.:10:13.

fighter, wanting to get further on come to showcase what he knows. He

:10:14.:10:20.

is a hard trainer. He is young. Is he training at the Institute of

:10:21.:10:24.

sport in Wales? They are producing some good fighters. A lot of these

:10:25.:10:31.

institutes have full-time systems. Now, somebody is going to go. Oh,

:10:32.:10:42.

Danny Williams tried it there. He likes his counters.

:10:43.:10:47.

Always a big chance with that throw, if you are not twisted enough, it

:10:48.:10:51.

depends on the referee's interpretation. He will have to look

:10:52.:10:56.

at the video to see who initiated it and if he turned enough.

:10:57.:11:00.

If they land together, there is no school given.

:11:01.:11:09.

-- score. A good decision. They have to stay within the yellow

:11:10.:11:11.

area. That was almost four Danny Williams,

:11:12.:11:22.

are they going to give it? He has given a yuko.

:11:23.:11:29.

He has given it the other way, I do not get that? I am surprised that

:11:30.:11:37.

has not been given to the video referee.

:11:38.:11:46.

The referee has scrapped the actual score.

:11:47.:11:48.

People might think you know what you are talking about! Maybe!

:11:49.:11:55.

I love how Ireland is not backing down from the experience. And with

:11:56.:12:00.

all of that ink, quite intimidating!

:12:01.:12:09.

He is really committing with that. He has not quite got the line, we

:12:10.:12:14.

are talking about lines of attack. Not quite the right angle to finish

:12:15.:12:20.

it off. It is a spectacular counter by Danny Williams, when it works.

:12:21.:12:27.

Credit to Ireland, he is doing well. I think Williams wants to make his

:12:28.:12:32.

mark. Looking for a big throw to start the

:12:33.:12:39.

tournament. Maybe that is his way of getting into the game, a big throw,

:12:40.:12:42.

to show the youngsters don't bother. Ireland is left-handed which is why

:12:43.:12:54.

he keeps getting caught. Danny Williams is going around the waist

:12:55.:12:55.

with that hand. He had to watch that belt -- belt

:12:56.:13:06.

grip. We haven't seen penalties so far. I

:13:07.:13:10.

will explain a little more as we go through. They will come up on your

:13:11.:13:16.

board as a yellow flag. More four penalties and it is this

:13:17.:13:21.

qualification. In some of the contexts, we may see a lot. Islands

:13:22.:13:29.

is going in for the shime waza. It is across the face, Williams is

:13:30.:13:35.

saying. You have to be careful and showed the referee because sometimes

:13:36.:13:38.

it looks like a submission, I have seen that before.

:13:39.:13:44.

Counter-productive, that. It can work against you. What we mean by

:13:45.:13:49.

tapping is when you go for a submission, pressure against the

:13:50.:13:53.

elbow or a struggle against the neck, when you tap, that means you

:13:54.:13:59.

submit and give the ippon to the other player.

:14:00.:14:03.

There is another school. Another score to Daniel -- Danny Williams.

:14:04.:14:18.

Five minute contest. If there was no is score at the end -- there is no

:14:19.:14:31.

score, then it goes into the golden score when any will win.

:14:32.:14:35.

That is going to be a penalty for Ireland. He will get a shido for

:14:36.:14:40.

stepping out, he should do. The referee hasn't given it.

:14:41.:14:45.

Williams is resorting to tactics and not just the big throw. One minute

:14:46.:14:50.

left on the clock. He has got to play it safe. And keep back at the

:14:51.:14:56.

Tattoo yuko lead. You can see quite clearly the right

:14:57.:15:01.

against left situation. Right-handed Ireland, right-handed Danny

:15:02.:15:06.

Williams. Sometimes, it is very difficult to catch the sleeves.

:15:07.:15:24.

grip up and be positive with our grips. That is why the baggy jackets

:15:25.:15:33.

are not for show, it is a weapon. It is our equipment. That is nice.

:15:34.:15:45.

Almost taken by Williams. I have done some work with Danny and

:15:46.:15:48.

sometimes he is not as tight as he should be with that. He has to go up

:15:49.:15:57.

onto the arm now. Now he starts, three seconds to go, it will make no

:15:58.:16:02.

difference, he will win the match, Williams for England goes through to

:16:03.:16:08.

the quarterfinal stage. Good first match for Williams, good

:16:09.:16:13.

warm up, get him into the Games, get his head together, get him sorted.

:16:14.:16:19.

He will go back and re-evaluate what went right and wrong, and look at

:16:20.:16:24.

his next competitor, see how he can improve on that performance.

:16:25.:16:39.

Credit to Connor who came out ready to fight, and that is exactly what

:16:40.:16:44.

he did. Yes, I think Danny Williams was

:16:45.:16:56.

thinking, just a junior, no problem. Did not quite get the control on the

:16:57.:17:03.

upper part of the body. Just hooks the inside of the lake and takes it

:17:04.:17:19.

backwards for a second yuko. -- inside of the leg.

:17:20.:17:30.

Danny Williams goes through. Called in at the last minute for Benjamin

:17:31.:17:41.

Fletcher. Danny, can we... ? He has gone away unfortunately. Benjamin

:17:42.:17:46.

Fletcher had to pull out with a knee injury, Danny must be absolutely

:17:47.:17:53.

exhausted, he will be happy but tired as he makes his way into the

:17:54.:17:59.

round of 16. We have just seen him go through but in the under 73

:18:00.:18:19.

category we had Thompson Thompson against Gosiewski, let's see how

:18:20.:18:23.

they got on. There are the fighters. There is a

:18:24.:18:47.

law of expectation for Gosiewski, he is a quality fighter, but not

:18:48.:18:56.

seeded. There are a few higher placed fighters than him on the

:18:57.:19:07.

list. In the white, Gosiewski, Thompson in blue. First round, and

:19:08.:19:17.

73 kilograms category. Chance for an armlock, quickly onto it. Problems

:19:18.:19:26.

for Thompson. He just spun out. Just in the wrong position. A little

:19:27.:19:34.

taste. He looks sharp, a good sign early in the contest. And now

:19:35.:19:45.

Thompson works on Gosiewski's arm. He has some fantastic new assets,

:19:46.:19:50.

Gosiewski, some very smart transitions. I wonder who taught him

:19:51.:20:01.

that! Just trying to settle on a grip now. You really must have both

:20:02.:20:16.

hands on. Does not come off. You will not be surprised to hear that

:20:17.:20:22.

Gosiewski is of Polish extraction. So is the referee. And back onto the

:20:23.:20:33.

arm. Taking nice control of the lapel. He will take his time to try

:20:34.:20:39.

to turn them over. Again they has slipped it, need work, the way to do

:20:40.:20:48.

it. Circle that leg around and then lose contact. Twice now Gosiewski

:20:49.:20:56.

has had the opportunity to work on the arm, on both occasions Thompson

:20:57.:21:03.

has been able to get out of it. A nice contest, flowing well with lots

:21:04.:21:04.

of action. Again, it does not come off. The

:21:05.:21:23.

nice thing about this is that Gosiewski is perfectly happy on the

:21:24.:21:27.

ground, he does not mind giving up a position on the ground, whereas

:21:28.:21:32.

other fighters would dislike it. He thrives on it. Perfectly happy. Even

:21:33.:21:38.

if it is not the best initial position, he can work something from

:21:39.:21:45.

it. Yes, although that leg was a little bit high, a little bit much

:21:46.:21:50.

for me, wasting effort and energy. Conservative effort and energy, he

:21:51.:21:55.

is ahead on penalties. Just under three minutes to go. Almost a slip,

:21:56.:22:03.

he was just off balance. He was going the wrong way. This is the

:22:04.:22:13.

speciality technique of Gosiewski, his legs are locked in and he's

:22:14.:22:18.

going for the turn. Once they are locked in, and they are strong,

:22:19.:22:22.

there is no getting out of there. You have to remember... Is that a

:22:23.:22:34.

tap out? Yes. Too tight. Fantastic. We spoke about Gosiewski's prowess

:22:35.:22:43.

on the ground, and that is how he troubled him. He did it beautifully

:22:44.:22:50.

in the end. A good start for Gosiewski England. Leaves Thompson

:22:51.:22:57.

unfortunately to draw one of the better fighters in the category. But

:22:58.:23:05.

it is Gosiewski we will see in the second round. Taking control. He

:23:06.:23:13.

takes his time. Legs in, automatically, he would have

:23:14.:23:18.

practised that position thousands of times. Very strong. Now that

:23:19.:23:39.

strangle will be going on. Bold, and the strangle was going on.

:23:40.:23:46.

You see it, and she thinks, no good, I have to tap out. Let's take a look

:23:47.:23:58.

at Patrick Dawson of Scotland, facing joseph Hell Bapou off-camber

:23:59.:24:18.

room. -- of Cameroon. If Scotland even have half as good a day is

:24:19.:24:28.

yesterday, it would be a success. Dawson in white, Hell Bapou in

:24:29.:24:33.

blue. think sometimes in the first fight,

:24:34.:25:01.

the nerves are there and sometimes the grips are a little bit weak. You

:25:02.:25:08.

need to settle your nerves, take your time, set the technique up.

:25:09.:25:26.

Dawson was a little bit rushed. He is settling in, now. He missed a

:25:27.:25:42.

trick. If you win a penalty, you don't want to give one top ten

:25:43.:25:47.

seconds later to your opponent. -- have one given against you.

:25:48.:26:18.

Less penalties for stepping outside the area so far. I know it is only

:26:19.:26:27.

the second of third fight, but yesterday we had a whole list of

:26:28.:26:33.

them. The fighters just paying a little bit more attention. That did

:26:34.:26:38.

not come off once more. Would be nice to try and set him up

:26:39.:27:19.

with a feint if he can. He is going to slip that leg.

:27:20.:27:28.

For me, that is too quick. Much too quick. I don't see the

:27:29.:27:35.

point in calling that, you know he is going to throw his leg across, by

:27:36.:27:42.

that time you call. He has missed that, I am afraid. A nice bit

:27:43.:27:50.

developing, and he called it too quickly. He is uncomfortable. There

:27:51.:28:01.

is something that Hell Bapou is not comfortable with. Just rolling back

:28:02.:28:10.

on his heels. That is why he went down, and he is likely to turn a

:28:11.:28:16.

little bit, or else he would have been out. He seems to be tiring a

:28:17.:28:29.

little bit now. Which is strange. If you look at him, he is in great

:28:30.:28:33.

physical condition. Again, everything to the rare from Dawson.

:28:34.:28:47.

-- rear. A feint to the front, and something to the rear and he will be

:28:48.:28:56.

in great position. And there it is. Just stretched him out. And in that

:28:57.:29:02.

stretching the children started to come up. A little bit of room to get

:29:03.:29:13.

behind in. -- the chin started to come out. Good to get a first win

:29:14.:29:23.

and feel like you had a real fight. That is what you need, you just need

:29:24.:29:26.

to get out there, and feel what it is like on the mat in front of your

:29:27.:29:35.

home crowd. A good start for the Scotsman. Winning his opening

:29:36.:29:44.

contest. We will see him in the next round, facing Gosiewski, he has that

:29:45.:29:57.

to come. We pick up where we left off last

:29:58.:30:03.

night, success for Scotland. We pick up where we left off last

:30:04.:30:09.

night, success The biggest cheer went for Patrick Dawson, who will

:30:10.:30:17.

now face an Englishman in the Battle of Britain, against Gosiewski. And

:30:18.:30:27.

later on, Danny Williams, who we saw earlier on, making his way into the

:30:28.:30:32.

last 16 also. They are in separate halves of the draw. So we could see

:30:33.:30:38.

an all England final, or it could yet another England versus Scotland

:30:39.:30:42.

fight. Either way, the fans are not disappointed.

:30:43.:30:46.

But the rest this morning?s bouts are on the website,

:30:47.:30:51.

along with all the other live sport which is happening right now.

:30:52.:31:03.

It is not long until those first swimming heats of the day. There was

:31:04.:31:10.

a fantastic atmosphere last night at the Tollcross is national swimming

:31:11.:31:15.

centre. Let us head right over there to the venue. Helen Skelton is

:31:16.:31:24.

keeping an eye on the heats this morning.

:31:25.:31:28.

Good morning. My team are just coming down from last night, how was

:31:29.:31:34.

it in here? Two gold medals for Scotland,

:31:35.:31:39.

it in here? Two gold medals for From Hannah Miley winning that first

:31:40.:31:44.

gold medal, it continued to the end with Ross. And a world record from

:31:45.:31:52.

the Australian team. Very emotion, -- very emotional, seeing family

:31:53.:31:56.

crying. Ross Murdoch. He dedicated it to his

:31:57.:32:02.

grandad. He looked so surprised. The crowd were not sure, as much as

:32:03.:32:08.

they loved the performance, they were not sure what to do. It was

:32:09.:32:15.

always about Michael. There was so much pressure on him. Ross's face at

:32:16.:32:24.

the end. 50m to go here. They were side-by-side all the way. I expected

:32:25.:32:28.

that Michael would have a little bit left at the end.

:32:29.:32:33.

Ross was so surprised. The difficult thing for Michael was that Ross did

:32:34.:32:43.

phenomenally well. He had a great day. Michael was

:32:44.:32:50.

aiming for that world record. He has openly said he had set his alarm and

:32:51.:32:55.

every morning he wakes up to that world record, he looks at it. He

:32:56.:32:59.

really wanted to get under that mark. Ross was more shocked that he

:33:00.:33:11.

did that time, not just a case of beating Michael. A big PB for him.

:33:12.:33:21.

He has overnight come from not being known in world swimming, and now,

:33:22.:33:27.

here's a to beat. The best time in the world this year. Ross is the new

:33:28.:33:37.

Michael. Seven home nations swimmers in that final.

:33:38.:33:43.

We will see both of them again later in the 100 metres breaststroke. If

:33:44.:33:49.

you want to see any of the heats from Tollcross, you can go online

:33:50.:33:54.

and see every single race. We have the men's 200m freestyle, heat

:33:55.:34:05.

number three. On the century times, the three

:34:06.:34:14.

fastest heats have the top 24 swimmers. The fastest swimmer is in

:34:15.:34:29.

lane four. It is circle seeded. There are normally only three or

:34:30.:34:33.

four heats. But we will concentrate on the faster heats.

:34:34.:34:46.

All Twitter questions are welcome. This heat, all three medallists from

:34:47.:34:51.

last night are back in action, how difficult will it be for them to

:34:52.:34:55.

recover? Definitely it will be hard. It was a

:34:56.:35:02.

late night. They probably had to go into doping control, fit in food and

:35:03.:35:07.

relaxation. This is what they have trained for. They have known the

:35:08.:35:11.

schedule for a long time. It is difficult. This morning, they will

:35:12.:35:17.

feel in control. They know they are swimming well. That is a bonus.

:35:18.:35:29.

These Scottish have a lot to live up to. Robbie Renwick is in heat number

:35:30.:35:35.

five. The defending champion. He has to get through this to get to the

:35:36.:35:40.

final. In the 50 and 100m bases, we have

:35:41.:35:49.

the finals the following evening. In the 200m, heat in the morning and

:35:50.:35:54.

final in the evening. There was no hanging about. The top eight will go

:35:55.:35:58.

through to the final this evening. Ross is reigning champion.

:35:59.:36:17.

First up we have the 200m freestyle. And here is the timetable.

:36:18.:36:40.

It is warm in here. And warm in the evening once the lights had been on

:36:41.:36:48.

all day. It is boasting. A busy morning. They had to crack

:36:49.:36:58.

on. One of the highlights of last night was the Australian world

:36:59.:37:03.

record. Did you expect them to go that quickly?

:37:04.:37:06.

Yes, everyone in the swimming world did. On paper it showed they would

:37:07.:37:11.

break the world record. They are the fastest swimmers in the world right

:37:12.:37:18.

now. What is nice is very had that target. They are a long wait ahead.

:37:19.:37:29.

They did not stop. They went for it and tactically give it right with

:37:30.:37:35.

who they placed in the relay. We will see a lot of them again this

:37:36.:37:40.

morning. How much of a confidence is it to have a gold medal already?

:37:41.:37:45.

When you have done all the training and leading up to a major meet, you

:37:46.:37:53.

get confidence from one race and it goes into other racers. -- races. If

:37:54.:38:07.

you look at the English team, they weren't a million miles away from

:38:08.:38:16.

the Aussies. Fantastic for them. The knock on effect is not just here

:38:17.:38:21.

in the swimming pool, statistically, it is Scotland's best ever, what

:38:22.:38:26.

games, and it tends to happen when they win early in the Games.

:38:27.:38:34.

It gets the ball rolling. It was the very first race. It is great for the

:38:35.:38:42.

English, Welsh, we saw loads of medals last night. It gives the

:38:43.:38:46.

whole British team a boost. They train together. A lot of them train

:38:47.:38:57.

in Bath. They know their squad is swimming well. It gives a boost to

:38:58.:39:06.

the others. Good to see James Guy get his first

:39:07.:39:11.

senior medal last night. In the World Championships last

:39:12.:39:16.

year, he shone out. When you come into a Championships, you still have

:39:17.:39:21.

to deliver. He improved again and pushed the other guys. It is nice to

:39:22.:39:29.

see for the other swimmers. We always need to see new talent.

:39:30.:39:41.

Liam swam well last night. Always good to see. Heat number three in

:39:42.:39:48.

the 200m freestyle, that as hand over to your commentators. -- let

:39:49.:39:53.

us. The result of the second heat of

:39:54.:40:16.

this 200m freestyle. A new Isle of Man record. A lifetime best by over

:40:17.:40:24.

one second. The big boys are coming out, the

:40:25.:40:30.

first of the seeded heats. David McKeon, what can he do after that

:40:31.:40:35.

fascinating 400m freestyle final, we thought he had it in the bag. Ryan

:40:36.:40:41.

Cochrane came from nowhere to win the gold medal.

:40:42.:40:52.

Calum Jarvis from Wales in shot. Nick Grainger, since the trials, he

:40:53.:41:01.

was at the ten weeks with a stress fracture to his back. Apparently he

:41:02.:41:07.

has come on really well. Ryan Cochrane, the champion from last

:41:08.:41:09.

night, a stunning last 50m. Heat number three of five. David

:41:10.:41:26.

McKeon of Australia, world ranked number seven in this event. He has a

:41:27.:41:31.

decent start, that yellow hat right in the centre. A little bit shorter

:41:32.:41:37.

than he would prefer, he prefers this to 400 metres freestyle. He

:41:38.:41:45.

went so fast in the 400 free but paid for it. With 75 to go it

:41:46.:41:50.

started to unfold. You have two try to learn from what

:41:51.:41:56.

you do. I have seen him go out over a second faster than that, and he

:41:57.:42:05.

tired up again. He has to work on that. He has a beautiful stroke,

:42:06.:42:11.

Calum Jarvis from the Seychelles, Calum Jarvis from the Seychelles,

:42:12.:42:22.

first over, Wales, actually. Certainly Wales! That is a gutsy

:42:23.:42:29.

swim from the Welshman. If you can keep it up and bring it home, that

:42:30.:42:35.

would be great to see. No semifinals in the 200. No mistakes. Jervis is

:42:36.:42:45.

turning first again. A big swim. He has a backstroke history, he

:42:46.:42:49.

changed to freestyle. He is coming away from the field. A phenomenal

:42:50.:42:55.

swim. He is taking McKeon apart. Going away, nearly a body length

:42:56.:42:59.

ahead. A strong kick. This is

:43:00.:43:08.

extraordinary. Calum Jarvis. A new lifetime best for him. Is it a Welsh

:43:09.:43:11.

record I think it is. Goodness me. He has beaten David

:43:12.:43:29.

McKeon. Remind me never to bet on swimming.

:43:30.:43:37.

I am not sure if Ryan Cochrane will make the final. Maybe from last

:43:38.:43:47.

night, his gold medal swim. This is super, the Welshman showing

:43:48.:43:51.

everyone how to do it. A new Welsh record. It will be tight to make

:43:52.:43:56.

that final. Heat four. The second of the three

:43:57.:44:07.

fastest heats. Fraser-Holmes in the Australian

:44:08.:44:36.

trials did the same, setting good times. He has said he can do it.

:44:37.:44:50.

They have just watched the third heat and it wasn't that fast. A very

:44:51.:44:58.

good swim from the Welshman. After that, I think the next two could set

:44:59.:45:03.

a pace. latter he -- heats.

:45:04.:45:28.

Fraser Holmes, third fastest in the world of this year, yellow cap.

:45:29.:45:39.

Great position for James Guy to be in.

:45:40.:45:44.

A really fast hundred from both of these guys. Out like lightning.

:45:45.:45:57.

Thomas Fraser of Australia forced to turn -- first.

:45:58.:46:07.

James Guy, a real talent for Great Britain swimming. But it is Robbie

:46:08.:46:32.

Renwicks. Fraser Holmes looks a little bit

:46:33.:46:40.

more comfortable. The British record, one. Lloyd, 148. James Guy

:46:41.:47:20.

just took two hundredths off his fastest time. He is right on form.

:47:21.:47:44.

Fraser Holmes winning. You don't want to be equal eighth position.

:47:45.:48:00.

So, defending champion Robbie Renwick, he has a big job to make

:48:01.:48:08.

the final. But should do it. He has not shown much form this year. 47.6

:48:09.:48:17.

his best swim this year. And in 48 should get him in the top three. But

:48:18.:48:27.

he has not really needed to. Yes, but sometimes it is good to put

:48:28.:48:34.

yourself in that fast speed. The fastest seed is McEvoy of

:48:35.:48:38.

Australia, world ranked number two this year. He has gone very fast

:48:39.:48:47.

indeed. Defending champion Robbie Renwick close to him. But look,

:48:48.:49:02.

McEvoy is off like a shot. Only a handful of people swam under 1.46

:49:03.:49:08.

this year. McEvoy the lead in that group. Now, it looks like Renwick

:49:09.:49:21.

it's coming back. The sort of thing he does. Good second half is two --

:49:22.:49:41.

of the race. As long as he can pick it up now. In that white cap,

:49:42.:49:48.

closest to the leader. It is still reasonably fast. 1.28 of the split.

:49:49.:49:57.

We are close to a Commonwealth record. Just a little bit down on

:49:58.:50:05.

it. But getting back like a rocket, really good from Renwick, really

:50:06.:50:14.

catching him up. He came back very well indeed. 1.47, he is definitely

:50:15.:50:24.

in the final. A hundredths ahead of Matthew Stanley in New Zealand, all

:50:25.:50:35.

three will make its head. There might well be a swim off. Yes, for

:50:36.:50:48.

seventh, eighth, and ninth. One place, three swimmers, they will

:50:49.:50:52.

need to do it at the end of this heat session. They have got a bit of

:50:53.:51:01.

a while. That was hard work for Renwick, but McEvoy looked good. He

:51:02.:51:17.

looks comfortable, and he has the seats for the 400 medley coming up

:51:18.:51:29.

-- heats. It is interesting, but he did it at the Australian trials. He

:51:30.:51:42.

is in good shape. He has come through, this guy. Last year,

:51:43.:51:51.

finalist but no medals at the World Championships. Olympics, just in the

:51:52.:51:58.

seats as a relay swimmer. So, just starting to show. He is only 20. He

:51:59.:52:08.

took on James Magnussen in the hundred metres freestyle and beat

:52:09.:52:15.

him. Which was quite extraordinary. Magnussen declared he was going for

:52:16.:52:23.

the world record. And up steps young McEvoy, and not only did Magnussen

:52:24.:52:29.

not brake the world record, but he came second in the race! The Dutch

:52:30.:52:38.

coach has now gone over to Australia. I imagine they would have

:52:39.:52:45.

had eight quick chat. Get yourself right, and of records,, records

:52:46.:52:46.

comp. Exciting times. We are heading for a

:52:47.:53:05.

swim off. Only one place available. Three swimmers will swim at the end

:53:06.:53:09.

of the session, racing for that one place. A horrible place to be in but

:53:10.:53:22.

I think Ryan Cochrane will thrive. A minor technical glitch but we will

:53:23.:53:25.

show you the results of the men's 200 metres freestyle. When we would

:53:26.:53:40.

race, if there was a swim off, all these rumours would go, swim off,

:53:41.:53:52.

swim off! I notice Rebecca did not join in! I've never had a swim off.

:53:53.:54:01.

You were never involved in one, never seen one? No, I don't think

:54:02.:54:12.

so. These guys will now have to swim again, then prepare again for the

:54:13.:54:17.

final, so it is really tough, but it is what it is about. The July that

:54:18.:54:34.

clapping? -- did you like that? It is my kind of thing! If it is one of

:54:35.:54:44.

yours, you don't like the swim off, but if it is not, you are not that

:54:45.:54:54.

bothered about it. Michael Jamieson and Andrew Willis

:54:55.:54:57.

put an amazing performances last night. There is a knock-on effect.

:54:58.:55:07.

You know what, the rest of my squad our swimming well. So it will be

:55:08.:55:13.

interesting to see what we get tonight.

:55:14.:55:19.

Davies is from the school of thought, you just get on with it,

:55:20.:55:24.

none of this entertaining nonsense! You just get on and swim!

:55:25.:55:33.

It does help. You spend 20 hours a week with your coach, you socialise

:55:34.:55:39.

together, so it does not mean that if somebody else has a nightmare,

:55:40.:55:45.

you will have one as well, but, yes, positivity does around the

:55:46.:55:50.

room, knowing other people have done it, seeing them with their medals,

:55:51.:55:54.

you think, I don't want to miss out, I want one of them as well.

:55:55.:56:07.

This is a big opportunity now for Fran Halsell, isn't it?

:56:08.:56:16.

Yes, she was disappointed with her performance in London and scraped

:56:17.:56:23.

only a bronze in the worlds, so this is a chance this year for her to

:56:24.:56:27.

make a name for herself a bit more and get the medals that she rightly

:56:28.:56:34.

deserves. This is in Barcelona last year, getting that bronze in the

:56:35.:56:39.

World Championships. Cate Campbell took silver, and she will be in the

:56:40.:56:45.

pool today. Not much between them, can they bridge the gap?

:56:46.:56:58.

On paper, she could potentially, but what was interesting about the World

:56:59.:57:01.

Championships was the fact that we have not won any medals, and it was

:57:02.:57:06.

the ultimate day, so what's the pressure on her performance. --

:57:07.:57:16.

penultimate day, so lots of pressure. A lot on her shoulder, but

:57:17.:57:24.

she stood up and performed. She made a change of coach last year.

:57:25.:57:34.

Sometimes those things take a shift. She is one of the most talented

:57:35.:57:42.

swimmers I have ever seen. Sprinters are born to sprint. It is down to

:57:43.:57:52.

your body make-up. She is one of those people who does deliver. Yes,

:57:53.:57:56.

the Olympics was disappointing, fifth, she came, but at every other

:57:57.:58:02.

major meeting she has stepped up and taking a medal.

:58:03.:58:10.

She seems like a great character. Always got such confidence out of

:58:11.:58:16.

the pool. It is hard to tell with her. She has

:58:17.:58:22.

changed coaches. She normally races are really well all year round but

:58:23.:58:25.

this year she was doing something a bit different so I am looking

:58:26.:58:31.

forward to seeing it. It will be an interesting morning.

:58:32.:58:37.

Courtney Butcher is from Guernsey, we also have swimmers from the Isle

:58:38.:58:43.

of Man, lots of representation from the home nations. Let's move over to

:58:44.:58:47.

the commentators. Joe -- Joachim, I would not be

:58:48.:59:13.

surprised to see in finals shortly. This is heat four of eight. We are

:59:14.:59:21.

seeing some of the less traditional swimming nations here. The Ugandan

:59:22.:59:36.

is the fastest seed. Courtney Butcher of Guernsey is in lane

:59:37.:59:37.

three. 50 metres freestyle. The pace is

:59:38.:59:54.

starting to hot up. I would imagine these ladies are a little bit

:59:55.:59:57.

spooked by the time of the previous heat. The 14-year-old from Saint

:59:58.:00:06.

Vincent and the Grenadines, below 27, extremely good. This looks like

:00:07.:00:14.

it will be the Ugandan, just, by five hundredths. A good swim from

:00:15.:00:22.

Courtney Butcher. Her lifetime best was 27.75. She has just gone .48. So

:00:23.:00:30.

a new lifetime best, well done Courtney. Once again lane for

:00:31.:00:43.

pulling out the fastest swim. Here are the results of that heat.

:00:44.:01:14.

We will start to get down to 26s shortly. So, the last of the

:01:15.:01:20.

unseeded heats in the women's 50 metres freestyle. We have already

:01:21.:01:30.

seen a very low 27. So, the last of the unseeded heats

:01:31.:02:04.

in the women's 50m freestyle. We have got some extraordinarily quick

:02:05.:02:12.

swimmers in the last two heats. And look at this. Going very well indeed

:02:13.:02:19.

in Lane 2, Hill of Northern Ireland. She got second. And her time, 27.23.

:02:20.:02:35.

That is a landmark for her. The Irish girl, a 14-year-old, having a

:02:36.:02:41.

fantastic swim, getting close to dropping under 27. Best time for

:02:42.:02:53.

her. Laura Kinley also doing very well, from the Isle of Man. I think

:02:54.:03:03.

it is probably going to be low 25s to make the final.

:03:04.:03:10.

I think you're right, Bronte Campbell might go even into the

:03:11.:03:16.

24s. She is certainly capable. So, the first of the seeded heats...

:03:17.:03:23.

Bronte Campbell of Australia, part of that world record-breaking relay

:03:24.:03:30.

team from yesterday. Davies, the 16-year-old, in Lane 7, for Wales.

:03:31.:03:35.

She swam a very good leg on the Welsh relay, actually.

:03:36.:03:54.

So, world ranked sixth is Bronte Campbell of Australia. This is the

:03:55.:04:03.

50m freestyle. Maybe better at 100m. But look at the strength and power.

:04:04.:04:09.

The two Bronte sisters on tub of the podium. Both gold medallists and

:04:10.:04:12.

world record holders from last night. What a family that is. Look

:04:13.:04:19.

at this, what a demonstration of 50m freestyle! Brilliant stuff! That is

:04:20.:04:25.

a stunning swim. Games record it is. Good heavens! What a start! Well,

:04:26.:04:34.

she is meant to be the third fastest, and it is a new

:04:35.:04:36.

Commonwealth record for Bronte Campbell of Australia.

:04:37.:04:42.

Wow! ADRIAN MOORHOUSE: We mentioned it

:04:43.:04:48.

before, the girls grew up in Malawi, swimming away from crocodiles.

:04:49.:04:53.

Fantastic swim! She was knocked out of the Delhi competition, the last

:04:54.:04:57.

Commonwealth Games, with Anja LeFevre. But the two Bronte sisters

:04:58.:05:02.

signalling their intent. I think this will be a time for the rest to

:05:03.:05:12.

aim for. ANDREW JAMESON: I am sure that will

:05:13.:05:23.

be broken again before this is done. That is clearly the comfortable

:05:24.:05:26.

targets to make it through to the semis, sub 26. Fran Halsall, the

:05:27.:05:38.

only British swimmer to get a medal at the World Championships last

:05:39.:05:42.

year, and that was in this event. Here is Amy Smith. Both women

:05:43.:05:49.

getting that silver medal last night, in the four times 100m, they

:05:50.:05:54.

will have been quite pleased with that, finishing behind Australia.

:05:55.:06:02.

The second last heat of the women's 50m freestyle. Fran Halsall of

:06:03.:06:09.

England getting a decent start. Very short, choppy stroke it is. She is

:06:10.:06:15.

in Lane 4, world ranked amber for this year. And these two are going

:06:16.:06:25.

well. The Commonwealth Games record has just been set. And it has gone

:06:26.:06:30.

again! So, for the second time in two heats, the Commonwealth Games

:06:31.:06:36.

record has gone. And I would imagine it may well go in the final as well.

:06:37.:06:40.

Fran Halsall sticking out a very, very strong marker. Really pleased

:06:41.:06:45.

for her. She is a bit of confidence swimmer, I think. Absolutely, she

:06:46.:06:52.

needs this kind of thing to she had a nightmare in Delhi, got a stomach

:06:53.:06:56.

illness, and did not achieve what you wanted to do there. But this is

:06:57.:07:00.

really good for confidence. She had one breath, about 15 metres out, and

:07:01.:07:05.

put her head back down again. I like the idea of doing that, getting some

:07:06.:07:11.

air in before the end. That is only two tenths outside of her lifetime

:07:12.:07:15.

best, which was set in one of those shiny suits.

:07:16.:07:29.

And what a final heat we have got here. Cate Campbell in Lane 4,

:07:30.:07:37.

Melanie Schlanger in Lane 5. The two Australians from that relay team

:07:38.:07:42.

which set the world record, but Cate Campbell was absolutely brilliant.

:07:43.:07:50.

Her split was 52.1, I think it was. Utterly extraordinary. There she is,

:07:51.:07:55.

Cate Campbell. Her sister set the new Commonwealth Games record in

:07:56.:08:03.

Heat 6. Fran Halsall just wrote it. And there is end be. Sub 24? We will

:08:04.:08:11.

see, but I think the record will go again.

:08:12.:08:18.

Sian Harkin, the 19-year-old from Scotland, is in Lane 3. And the

:08:19.:08:28.

Australians in the centre looking very comfortable. Look how strong

:08:29.:08:30.

Cate Campbell is in the centre. World champion on the 100m

:08:31.:08:36.

freestyle, and she is swimming away from Schlanger. This is brilliant. I

:08:37.:08:43.

think it may be under 24. 24.3. I am surprised, I think you called it,

:08:44.:08:48.

Adrian Moorhouse! Well, I will tell you what, the way she held the

:08:49.:08:51.

water, the strength of the stroke, was fantastic. I am surprised the

:08:52.:08:59.

record did not go again, though. Dig 24 is quite a big one to ask for.

:09:00.:09:07.

But she dominated this field again. I think it is between the two

:09:08.:09:11.

sisters and Fran, when we get to the final. Of course, it is semifinals

:09:12.:09:17.

tonight. Going into those semifinals, Fran Halsall is the

:09:18.:09:18.

fastest. 26th. -- under 26. Celebrating the

:09:19.:09:59.

world record last night, and gold medals, it is hard to come down

:10:00.:10:01.

after those things, but obviously they have done. So, here are the

:10:02.:10:09.

qualifiers for Fran Halsall goes in fastest, with her Games record.

:10:10.:10:16.

Then, the Campbell sisters. Amy Smith and Sian Harkin are also in

:10:17.:10:19.

there. Jessica Lloyd. Hannah McCarthy has made it as well - well

:10:20.:10:23.

done, excellent! So, a new Games record for Fran

:10:24.:10:32.

Halsall. We will be talking more about that in a minute, but now it

:10:33.:10:35.

is time to go back to Mishal Husain, who has got some news from

:10:36.:10:39.

the athletics. Yes, some news about the Welsh

:10:40.:10:43.

hurdler Rhys Williams. We have learned that he has failed a drugs

:10:44.:10:46.

test and is going to play no further part in the Commonwealth Games. That

:10:47.:10:51.

announcement has come from Team Wales this morning. He is a

:10:52.:10:54.

high-profile member of the Welsh team, the defending 400 metre

:10:55.:11:02.

European hurdles champion. These pictures are from an athletics

:11:03.:11:07.

meeting in Glasgow just a few weeks ago. So, he will be playing no

:11:08.:11:14.

further role in the Commonwealth Games, with the athletics due to

:11:15.:11:18.

start this weekend. It follows the news that he has failed a drugs

:11:19.:11:22.

test, and he has been handed a mandatory provisional suspension

:11:23.:11:28.

from all competition by the UK anti-dumping authorities. More on

:11:29.:11:33.

that later on, but now, back to the swimming heats. So, Fran Halsall,

:11:34.:11:40.

with a new record for the Commonwealth Games, but what do you

:11:41.:11:45.

make of the Campbell sisters? They are just absolutely totally in

:11:46.:11:48.

control of this one. Bronte just looked really long, really smooth.

:11:49.:11:55.

Mark did a stroke count on them all, and it was fascinating to see the

:11:56.:11:59.

difference between how Fran swims and how the Campbell sisters swim.

:12:00.:12:05.

We can hear from Fran now. What a fantastic swim? Yes, it is my

:12:06.:12:11.

fastest time of the year, so it is a nice way to start. Hopefully will be

:12:12.:12:15.

a bit faster tonight. But it is a nice pool, the crowd get you going a

:12:16.:12:20.

bit. Seeing Bronte go fast gave me the incentive. You might have to

:12:21.:12:25.

make the most of this Commonwealth Games record just for about 20

:12:26.:12:30.

seconds, because Cate is moving quite quickly, isn't she? Yes, it is

:12:31.:12:35.

going to be a nice final. It will be a close one. What do you see as your

:12:36.:12:42.

speciality now, or do you not really have one? Obviously, you had the

:12:43.:12:47.

injury after the Games, then last year you decided to specialise...?

:12:48.:12:54.

Can you see the time? No, it is still yours! That is a nice bonus to

:12:55.:13:02.

go into the semi with! Sorry, I got distracted. What do you reckon is

:13:03.:13:13.

your speciality? This is my year of finding out, really. I wanted to add

:13:14.:13:18.

the hundred back in and train a bit more on that one, and then after

:13:19.:13:22.

this year, make a decision on what is going to be the best combination

:13:23.:13:26.

for the Olympics. Really focusing on maybe just 50, or see if the 100

:13:27.:13:31.

will be good enough to get on the podium just that is what it is all,

:13:32.:13:35.

giving myself the best chance of getting on the podium in Rio. I do

:13:36.:13:40.

not want to spread myself too thinly, so it is all about trying to

:13:41.:13:45.

decide. Well, it looked fantastic, more of that, please! Thank you, I

:13:46.:13:51.

will try. That was Fran watching the final heat. Her stroke, you were

:13:52.:13:57.

counting hammy strokes she did, what did you make of it? If you look at

:13:58.:14:04.

the stroke tempo, Fran is not as tall as Cate and Bronte. She took 42

:14:05.:14:10.

strokes, compared to Cate, 31 strokes. It is all about the

:14:11.:14:17.

reaction of the block, the entry into the water, and trying to go 15

:14:18.:14:20.

metres under the water before you get going. If you look at Fran, in

:14:21.:14:27.

Lane 4, her turnover, how fast her arms are going over, she is doing 43

:14:28.:14:32.

strokes to Cate's 31. That is just the way she swims. You are trying to

:14:33.:14:38.

get yourself on top of the water. If you think of a speedboat, the faster

:14:39.:14:42.

it goes, the more it comes out of the water, because there is less

:14:43.:14:47.

resistance. But it does not matter how you swim it, it is who gets

:14:48.:14:52.

their fastest. Fran has still got a great chance. And that is the best I

:14:53.:14:58.

have seen her look in a heat. The best for a long time. I guess the

:14:59.:15:05.

theory and practice can end up being very different, as we saw last

:15:06.:15:08.

night, with Michael Jamieson coming in the favourite, but Ross Murdoch

:15:09.:15:14.

having a phenomenal swim. Today, they both go again, next to each

:15:15.:15:17.

other in the heats of the men's 100m. Not Michael's stronger

:15:18.:15:22.

different. But how will Michael becoming into this one? Because it

:15:23.:15:39.

is semi finals they don't need to push as hard, can be a little bit

:15:40.:15:45.

more relaxed. How will you feel this morning? -- he feel.

:15:46.:16:00.

Gutted. Absolutely gutted. The poster boy who seemed in such good

:16:01.:16:06.

form, very confident, on paper, going to win by a gap. But what a

:16:07.:16:31.

race from Ross. But hand over to our commentators

:16:32.:16:33.

and see what happens. So exciting, I cannot believe they

:16:34.:16:48.

have put these two guys next to each other. Ross Murdoch, his best race

:16:49.:16:59.

is said to be 50 or 100, and he won the 200 last night. What is going

:17:00.:17:06.

on? Michael Jamieson really has

:17:07.:17:14.

something to prove. Here, it is about Jamieson and murder. The crowd

:17:15.:17:20.

anticipating another head to head. -- Jamieson and Murdoch.

:17:21.:17:29.

Guy Davis from the Isle of Man is in lane one. Dawson of Northern Ireland

:17:30.:17:37.

into Mac. But it is really about four and five.

:17:38.:17:44.

There is a real contrast. He has the ability, he can really power out,

:17:45.:17:59.

but he has really sped up his/ -- his stroke. Not sure if he is

:18:00.:18:08.

hanging back on purpose. Curious to see if you can get under a minute in

:18:09.:18:12.

the heat after the effort of last night. Murdoch doing well. Richard

:18:13.:18:23.

Funk of Canada going well and the white hat. Look at that, so strong.

:18:24.:18:32.

A comfortable time, I have got to say. That is definitely the morning

:18:33.:18:40.

after the night before. Jamieson, through to the semifinal, I can only

:18:41.:18:45.

hope that was him just getting there, a time for tonight, then get

:18:46.:18:54.

back to bed. Only Jamieson can know what is going on for him, all sorts

:18:55.:19:00.

of Demons in his head. Slow off the block. Murdoch realised he was

:19:01.:19:11.

ahead. Then he concentrated on Richard Funk to his right. Just

:19:12.:19:17.

digging. Look how high he can still get, real power. It is really hard

:19:18.:19:24.

to get those arms to work in the last five metres. Ross Murdoch, the

:19:25.:19:31.

common world champion of the 200 metres breaststroke, comfortable

:19:32.:19:38.

through to that semifinal this evening. -- Commonwealth. The

:19:39.:19:45.

standard of swimmer in this hundreds metres breaststroke is frightening.

:19:46.:19:58.

The top four in the world included. So, here we have the defending

:19:59.:20:11.

champion and world record holder, van der Burgh of South Africa.

:20:12.:20:26.

This is going to be interesting. They do not need to go that fast to

:20:27.:20:37.

make the semifinal. Tactics? He will have to go for it, van der Burgh, he

:20:38.:20:43.

has not shown much this year and this is a big competition. Just one

:20:44.:20:52.

up from him in the lack cap, Snyders, uses his hips a lot less,

:20:53.:21:03.

more stock even other swimmers. -- stocky. Looking rusty, van der

:21:04.:21:14.

Burgh. Sometimes when you do not need to push it you just lose your

:21:15.:21:22.

rhythm a little bit. It looks like Snyders we'll win it. In second, van

:21:23.:21:36.

der Burgh, third, James Wilby. Certainly in the first four will go

:21:37.:21:42.

through to the semifinal. Very comfortable swimming in these heats.

:21:43.:21:48.

I think some are a bit hung over from last night. Not literally! I am

:21:49.:21:58.

curious whether van der Burgh has got the fire in him. That is a bit

:21:59.:22:09.

unusual. Looking a bit sluggish. Although third fastest time in the

:22:10.:22:10.

world, this year, mind. The final heat of the men's 100

:22:11.:22:29.

metres breaststroke. The world champion, Christian Sprenger, in

:22:30.:22:36.

lane four. Craig Benson in three for Scotland. It will be interesting to

:22:37.:22:45.

see how Sprenger shows after last night. A first showing for Benson,

:22:46.:23:04.

he was not in that 200. Sprenger in the Centre for Australia, yellow

:23:05.:23:15.

hat. The world ranked number one and two Inverness. -- in this. Katie is

:23:16.:23:33.

quite a strong guy, very powerful. -- Patey. Strong off the wall.

:23:34.:23:41.

Sprenger struggling to stay with him. His head is all over the place.

:23:42.:23:49.

I wonder if this will get under a minute. This is looking awful from

:23:50.:24:00.

Sprenger. He cannot be comfortable. 59.47. Very good indeed from

:24:01.:24:15.

Peatey, by far the fastest of the geeks. That was impressive and a new

:24:16.:24:21.

Commonwealth Games record. -- the fastest of the heats. He came fourth

:24:22.:24:35.

in that same race with Murdoch and Jamieson. He had to wake up and do

:24:36.:24:44.

this. Pretty impressive. On the other hand, the world champion,

:24:45.:24:50.

Sprenger, really not looking good. It could be a home countries battle.

:24:51.:24:57.

With the South African playing spoiler. A new Commonwealth Games

:24:58.:25:06.

record. Benson will be in the semifinals. But did not look good

:25:07.:25:20.

for the Australian, Sprenger. A games record for Peaty, only man

:25:21.:25:28.

through to the semifinals under a minute. Van der Burgh, nicely in

:25:29.:25:38.

fourth. Michael Jamieson in 10th place. A lot of work to do.

:25:39.:25:54.

The much discussed final of the 200. Adam Peaty, what a swimmer for him,

:25:55.:26:09.

a new games record. It can go to waste. People like

:26:10.:26:16.

Michael, Willis, the 100 is not their strength. Whereas Murdoch,

:26:17.:26:29.

Peaty, it is their event. I think Adam just wanted the confidence this

:26:30.:26:34.

morning. He wanted to show the others. Like laying a marker down.

:26:35.:26:43.

He could have had an easy morning but I think he wanted to test

:26:44.:26:44.

himself out a little bit. You two must have had a different

:26:45.:26:56.

night last night, did you get any sleep at all?

:26:57.:27:04.

I managed eventually! It took me time to get over what I did last

:27:05.:27:07.

night and eventually got five hours in.

:27:08.:27:14.

When you woke to see your face all over the newspapers did you think it

:27:15.:27:18.

was a dream? I have not been able to see any of

:27:19.:27:24.

it, television or newspapers. I have not seen any of the press. Maybe

:27:25.:27:29.

later. Maybe a good thing, just leaving it

:27:30.:27:36.

until later. Michael, you had a top night but you are an unbelievable

:27:37.:27:38.

professional, you just did behind you? -- will you just leave it

:27:39.:27:48.

behind you? I will just try to enjoy it now,

:27:49.:27:52.

soak up the atmosphere, and wish these guys are the best. Ross has

:27:53.:27:58.

written his name on the history books last night, but I know he will

:27:59.:28:05.

have one eye on the 100, and with his confidence, he will be dangerous

:28:06.:28:10.

in the final. Incredibly gracious of him to do

:28:11.:28:16.

these interviews. It is sometimes difficult. But these

:28:17.:28:25.

guys, especially Ross, he is just in a daydream at the moment. He just

:28:26.:28:37.

wants to let people get to know him. A little bit of a debrief with

:28:38.:28:43.

Sharon, and you want to stand and watch the other races also.

:28:44.:28:51.

The woman's 100-metre backstroke, Emily Seabourn is favourite.

:28:52.:29:00.

The Australian girls are incredible. But we have some strong girls,

:29:01.:29:06.

Davies of Wales, Quigley of England, Symonds of England, it is a really

:29:07.:29:13.

strong field. It will be a really tight race. There is no clear

:29:14.:29:20.

favourite. I do not think one person will be miles ahead of the rest.

:29:21.:29:27.

We go back to that breaststroke a minute ago. Number one in the world,

:29:28.:29:35.

Sprenger, he was awful. You were not impressed, were you? No. Australia

:29:36.:29:43.

have the Pan Pacific games, maybe he was focused on that, but they will

:29:44.:29:48.

remember the Commonwealth, what happened here right now, and if you

:29:49.:29:52.

do not perform, that is not on the result sheet. Like you said, you are

:29:53.:29:59.

still proud of your Edinburgh medal. For a Paralympic

:30:00.:30:04.

gold-medallist from Northern Ireland, her event is not in the

:30:05.:30:12.

Commonwealth Games, so she is going in this event instead because she is

:30:13.:30:16.

an accomplished able-bodied swimmer as well. That is what is so great

:30:17.:30:24.

about these games, what it embodies. It will be great to see how she

:30:25.:30:28.

handles it. It can be quite daunting. It be interesting,

:30:29.:30:33.

tactically, it works. There are only four heats, this is

:30:34.:31:06.

the first of the seeded heats. Elizabeth Simmonds goes in Lane 5,

:31:07.:31:12.

next to the fast Australian. The first time we have seen Lizzie

:31:13.:31:20.

Simmonds at this Commonwealth Games. It may be a little bit short for

:31:21.:31:24.

her, but she has had a very good season.

:31:25.:31:29.

So, the first of the seeded heats in the women's 400m backstroke. Bethany

:31:30.:31:45.

Firth of Northern Ireland is in Lane 7. Catherine Dawson is having a

:31:46.:31:54.

great year. She won the Scottish Championships at the age of 16.

:31:55.:32:02.

There she is with the blue. Simmons and Hocking, both 23 years of age.

:32:03.:32:12.

Now, Hocking coming away from the field. Simmonds struggling to hold

:32:13.:32:23.

on. It is still a very good swim from the Scot, Kathleen Dawson, in

:32:24.:32:28.

Lane 6. This could be a Scottish record. Hocking WinZip, very good

:32:29.:32:35.

from her, second was Lizzie Simmonds of England, and if I am not

:32:36.:32:39.

mistaken, that is a new Scottish record for Kathleen Dawson. Good

:32:40.:32:55.

swim in the heat. There is the turn, nearest to us.

:32:56.:32:59.

Hocking proving a little bit too strong. On the far left, Simmonds

:33:00.:33:09.

and Dawson battling it out. So, the first of the seeded heats,

:33:10.:33:14.

and it is a quick time, Belinda Hocking clearly laying down a mask

:33:15.:33:21.

-- laying down a marker. Sub-60, that is very impressive. Was it a

:33:22.:33:28.

Commonwealth Games record, actually I know I think it was. They have not

:33:29.:33:33.

shown it yet, but I think it was. Yes, Commonwealth Games record. Yes,

:33:34.:33:44.

by one 100th of a second. So, the second of the seeded heats, and

:33:45.:33:48.

Georgia Davies of Wales, what a great opportunity for a medal she

:33:49.:33:53.

will have. But tonight, but tomorrow in the final. She has got to get

:33:54.:33:56.

there first, though, via the semis tonight. Rachel Williams goes for

:33:57.:34:03.

Wales in Lane 2. She trains down in Bath. And the Welsh record-holder,

:34:04.:34:12.

Georgia Davies, in Lane 5. Next to her is Wilson of Australia. I think

:34:13.:34:23.

Georgia Davies will go sub-60. Her best time is pretty much exactly the

:34:24.:34:25.

same, 59.78. So, two lengths of backstroke, 15

:34:26.:34:37.

metres underwater. I tell you what, right on the edge, Georgia Davies,

:34:38.:34:42.

in Lane 4, with the white hat. You cannot go past the 15 metre mark. It

:34:43.:34:49.

was right on the line, wasn't it? It was. I was watching her do some

:34:50.:34:54.

practising, and her coaches were pulling her back of it. Good

:34:55.:34:58.

swimming from Lauren Quigley, the 19-year-old. From the English team.

:34:59.:35:10.

Oh, good turn again from Georgia Davies, using pretty much the whole

:35:11.:35:14.

of the 15 metres. That has really affected the race. Edison Wilson was

:35:15.:35:21.

ahead, but Davies's turn put her back into contention. Madison Wilson

:35:22.:35:30.

leading for Australia, but I think she has been overtaken by Quigley.

:35:31.:35:45.

Interesting way of swimming it from Lauren Quigley. She was out

:35:46.:35:51.

relatively slow, but brought it back very strongly. Absolutely, the

:35:52.:36:00.

strongest swimmer in good underwater from Davies, staying underwater for

:36:01.:36:10.

the full 15 metres. She looks a lot like her mum, doesn't she? Yes, she

:36:11.:36:15.

does! And her dad. So, there is the result. One heat to

:36:16.:36:37.

go. I think Rachel Williams will make it through to the semis as

:36:38.:36:42.

well, with just one heat to go. She is eighth so far, in fact, socially

:36:43.:36:45.

will certainly make it through. So, the final heat. World ranked number

:36:46.:36:53.

one is Emily Seebohm. She has already seen her team-mate going

:36:54.:36:59.

sub-60. It will be interesting to see how she goes now.

:37:00.:37:20.

So, the final heat of the women's 100m backstroke. A very good start

:37:21.:37:34.

indeed. I wonder if Emily Seebohm will try to get her record back. It

:37:35.:37:39.

is good to see Seebohm leading the race out. She was really

:37:40.:37:42.

disappointed after 2012, I think she felt she could have done more. She

:37:43.:37:47.

had a great Commonwealth Games in Delhi, eight medals out of eight

:37:48.:37:51.

races. Well, half a second separates the first three, and Seebohm, again,

:37:52.:38:06.

a good turn. 29.0 is OK out, I do not think she will go sub-60 after

:38:07.:38:10.

that. She could do. She is swimming pretty well. The Canadians are going

:38:11.:38:20.

with her. But at that, a new Commonwealth Games record. She just

:38:21.:38:32.

went 29.0, 30.5. That is pretty impressive splits. She is a real

:38:33.:38:35.

threat. World ranked number one this year. Fastest qualifier into the

:38:36.:38:43.

race. So, Seebohm, the one to watch, really. Just doing the job, through

:38:44.:38:52.

to the semis. ANDREW JAMESON: Back is the third

:38:53.:38:59.

fastest time in the world this year. ADRIAN MOORHOUSE: Good swimming from

:39:00.:39:03.

the Canadians, though, Russell and Snodgrass, they were quite close.

:39:04.:39:12.

Jessica Love should also make it through to the semis. The youngster

:39:13.:39:23.

Hill might not make it. In actual fact, she is tied for 16th, she will

:39:24.:39:26.

have a swim-off to get into the semis. So, here are the

:39:27.:39:33.

semifinalists confirmed. Almost as expected. You could see Lauren

:39:34.:39:39.

Quigley getting amongst the medals, that she has just got to qualify

:39:40.:39:43.

tonight. Georgia Davies, in seventh, a little bit of a surprise. Kathleen

:39:44.:39:47.

Dawson, breaking that Scottish record.

:39:48.:40:02.

I can tell you that there is a swim-off for that 16th place, and it

:40:03.:40:09.

is between the Kenyan and Danielle Hill, the 14-year-old from Northern

:40:10.:40:10.

Ireland. But right now, we turn our attention

:40:11.:40:21.

to a swim-off for the one Remaining Place in the 200 metre final. Mark

:40:22.:40:26.

is excited, he wanted to start up a Mexican wave, Rebecca, not so up for

:40:27.:40:34.

it? No, they are always exciting, but I like it when it is just to

:40:35.:40:37.

swimmers. This time it is three, and all of them want that spot. It is

:40:38.:40:47.

like a dance off in Strictly. Mark's line!

:40:48.:40:58.

ANDREW JAMESON: So, looking forward to this one. One spot available -3

:40:59.:41:04.

swimmers in it. On paper, it is Cochrane, but they

:41:05.:41:23.

are not swimming on paper, Adrian. ADRIAN MOORHOUSE: It is interesting

:41:24.:41:30.

that they have put it now, rather than later. So, Ieuan Lloyd is

:41:31.:41:43.

closest to us. No, sorry, I am not sure they have got them in the right

:41:44.:41:50.

lanes, have they...? It says on the board here, Ieuan Lloyd of Wales is

:41:51.:41:55.

in Lane 3. And it says Nick Grainger of England is in Lane 4 and Ryan

:41:56.:42:03.

Cochrane is in Lane 5. But I think yes, Lloyd is nearest to us.

:42:04.:42:11.

Grainger with the black from England is the one that is leading. So, Nick

:42:12.:42:18.

Grainger, from England. He has got a length up on the first 100. We know

:42:19.:42:23.

that Ryan Cochrane in the middle has got a good finish on him. He will

:42:24.:42:28.

wind this up. So, Grainger goes over first. Cochrane is in the centre, in

:42:29.:42:36.

second. And in third, it is Ieuan Lloyd, closest to us. Grainger has

:42:37.:42:40.

gone out really hard. This is sort of how it went in the heats, and

:42:41.:42:45.

Ryan Cochrane, who won the 400m, came back. He can do it, but he has

:42:46.:42:51.

got clear water between him and Cochrane. It is not over, when you

:42:52.:42:56.

have got Ryan Cochrane in a race like this, with 50m to go... So, it

:42:57.:43:01.

is Grainger leading, Ryan Cochrane coming back. Has Grainger done

:43:02.:43:08.

enough? He might have, you know. Cochrane is working very hard for

:43:09.:43:12.

Canada, I do not think he is going to catch Grainger. Look at this. It

:43:13.:43:17.

looks like Grainger is going to hold on. Grainger gets it, Ieuan Lloyd

:43:18.:43:31.

second, Cochrane third. I can tell you that graphic is wrong, Nick

:43:32.:43:38.

Grainger has made it through. And I have got to say, all three of them

:43:39.:43:42.

going faster than the time they set in the heats. And if any of them had

:43:43.:43:47.

set that time there would not have been a swim-off. But it is Grainger

:43:48.:43:52.

who has gone through. Brilliant, that is how you do it. Cochrane

:43:53.:44:01.

grimacing a bit. But now he can focus on that 1500m. This was the

:44:02.:44:08.

150 mark. Lloyd having a look over. Cochrane had a big look of that

:44:09.:44:17.

turn. Just a bit too much to make up on more of a sprint race. And it was

:44:18.:44:23.

Grainger who fractured his back, wasn't it? Yes, I was speaking to

:44:24.:44:29.

somebody at Sheffield who said he had a stress fracture in his back

:44:30.:44:33.

and he was out for ten weeks, and he has come back and looked even better

:44:34.:44:37.

than he ever did. That was a super swim. So, I can confirm that Nick

:44:38.:44:45.

Grainger won that swim-off, so he gets a place in the final of the

:44:46.:44:47.

men's 200m freestyle. Let's look ahead to the 400m IM.

:44:48.:45:04.

Good result there in the end. So, he gets his place in the final tonight.

:45:05.:45:08.

We will see that with Clare Balding from seven o'clock in here. Now,

:45:09.:45:12.

let's turn our attention to the men's 400m IM. A good friend of

:45:13.:45:21.

yours goes in this one? Tom Layfield. He has been part of the

:45:22.:45:31.

swimming a long time. But there is not a lot going on here, these guys

:45:32.:45:37.

can relax a little bit, they do not need to go all out to make the

:45:38.:45:44.

final. And a British record earlier in the

:45:45.:45:51.

year will give him a bit of a boost. This is a slightly open event which

:45:52.:45:56.

is nice. Australia will not necessarily dominate, or anyone

:45:57.:46:08.

dominate. A good chance for Pavone, Fraser Holmes had a good race

:46:09.:46:15.

earlier, but will he be tired now? It might not matter this morning,

:46:16.:46:19.

but come the final he might be a little more tired than the others.

:46:20.:46:24.

It is about your own race plan, tempo, getting it right.

:46:25.:46:32.

The crowd are whipped into a frenzy. You might hear this at a football

:46:33.:46:38.

match, but you are hearing it now in a swimming pool.

:46:39.:46:46.

This is all about time in this heat going into the final this evening.

:46:47.:46:57.

The men's 400 medley. You saw the Commonwealth Games record just the,

:46:58.:47:14.

-- just there, but the holders not at these games. Russo of South

:47:15.:47:22.

Africa in the lane for M. Russell Scotland in five.

:47:23.:47:31.

Africa in the lane for M. Russell when you set yourself. You have your

:47:32.:47:38.

routine. If something is not right, it is about timing. You can see them

:47:39.:47:51.

conferring. Oh, I don't know. It is interesting. I am just looking

:47:52.:47:56.

at the start having a chat with them, what are they talking about?

:47:57.:48:04.

-- the starter. It is quite serious, something is

:48:05.:48:08.

going on I think. They are having to work out what to do about it.

:48:09.:48:18.

So many big shocks last night. You are right. Dan Wallace has a

:48:19.:48:26.

great breaststroke as well. They are still chatting about something. I

:48:27.:48:33.

wonder if they still thought that the caption was right and they have

:48:34.:48:44.

just realised it was wrong. But they can sort it out later. I really like

:48:45.:48:51.

the sky, Wallace, now trains in the United States. -- this by. Russo is

:48:52.:49:00.

in the same university team, team-mates in America.

:49:01.:49:08.

The first of two heats in the men's 400 metres individual medley. Wall

:49:09.:49:16.

is of Scotland in five. The hack Wallace. -- wall is.

:49:17.:49:31.

Russo leading out the race. Wallace has got a good breaststroke. This is

:49:32.:49:52.

about what you would expect. Lane six, we are out of short, not having

:49:53.:50:03.

a good race, Tom Hadfield. 55.6, very fast indeed. 56.4, from

:50:04.:50:12.

Wallace. From the University of Florida. Lovely strokes. Look at

:50:13.:50:28.

that. It is good for Wallace, he just needs to hang in there. Went

:50:29.:50:40.

out in 56.2. Let's see what happens in the breaststroke. It is for

:50:41.:50:47.

Wallace to try to make up that distance. Let's not forget Luke

:50:48.:50:58.

Reilly. The 18-year-old from Canada. Can you see him?

:50:59.:51:05.

They know exactly how many strokes to do before they flick over.

:51:06.:51:13.

Russo leading at the halfway mark, from South Africa. Wallace from

:51:14.:51:26.

Scotland, now starting to work his breaststroke. Particularly quick. I

:51:27.:51:35.

would not be surprised if he ends up at a decent medal in the final

:51:36.:51:40.

tonight. It would be great to see that. His

:51:41.:51:45.

parents sold the family home to centre into America. He is one of

:51:46.:51:58.

five children. -- to send him to. I bet he is excited to be within a

:51:59.:52:09.

second of Russo. On the freestyle he must be able to hold this and go

:52:10.:52:16.

through. I think you are right. This is a real challenge for a gold or

:52:17.:52:23.

silver medal here from him. Just has to save a little bit for tonight.

:52:24.:52:29.

This will be a massive Scottish record. I reckon it could even be a

:52:30.:52:38.

British record. If he goes for 4.10, he could be second-fastest in

:52:39.:52:47.

the world. Tom Hadfield holds the British

:52:48.:52:52.

record, he is having a nightmare. The crowd are going not. -- nuts. A

:52:53.:53:15.

very good swim indeed. A new Commonwealth Games record for

:53:16.:53:23.

Wallace of Scotland. Another fantastic swim from him. To go with

:53:24.:53:30.

the Scottish record he set in the 400 metres freestyle. I tell you

:53:31.:53:37.

what, the rest of the field will be sitting thinking, oh my word. Waving

:53:38.:53:48.

to the crowd and rightly so. A talented swimmer who has had some

:53:49.:53:55.

tribulations over in the States. He is putting it behind him and letting

:53:56.:53:59.

his talent show. Really made that count and took a good 2.5 seconds

:54:00.:54:11.

out of Russo. Powering away. There are two Scotsman in the next

:54:12.:54:15.

race, he is shouting to them, good lock! Good man.

:54:16.:54:26.

A new Commonwealth Games record for Dan Wallace. I am not sure that

:54:27.:54:40.

fourth place will be quick enough. Should be all right into rooms of

:54:41.:54:45.

placing but the time is not great. -- in terms.

:54:46.:54:53.

The Australian fastest cedars in lane four -- fastest seed is in.

:54:54.:55:07.

Louis Smith of Scotland in three. More home nation interest. Louis

:55:08.:55:12.

Smith of Scotland in lane three. More home nation interest. Louis

:55:13.:55:25.

Smith of Scotland in He and Pavoni are both good but I am not sure they

:55:26.:55:29.

will make a dent in the time of Fraser Holmes. Lovely underwater

:55:30.:55:48.

shot. Not bad at all from Pavoni but it is the world ranked number three,

:55:49.:55:52.

Fraser Holmes of Australia, leading them out. But we have just seen a

:55:53.:55:59.

really quick first heat and a new British record from Dan Wallace.

:56:00.:56:10.

Scottish swimming, goodness me! Golds and silvers, another three

:56:11.:56:17.

through in the 200 metres breaststroke. They all seem to be

:56:18.:56:28.

performing well. It gives momentum. You are in charge of your own

:56:29.:56:32.

individual preparation but it gives you a lift to see friends and

:56:33.:56:42.

colleagues and team-mates do well. Fraser Holmes a real classy

:56:43.:56:47.

swimmer. Already swamped today earlier on. If you does this he will

:56:48.:57:11.

be in two finals. -- if he. Did not use the full distance. Sometimes

:57:12.:57:21.

very difficult and the backstroke. Sterling started his career at

:57:22.:57:28.

Warrington. His mum and dad run a swimming teaching school. Really

:57:29.:57:38.

making the most of the backstroke leg. Halfway through. Travis Mahoney

:57:39.:57:49.

of Australia leads. Fraser Holmes is maybe just about in second place

:57:50.:57:59.

stop Louis Smith of Scotland, and they only have two set 4.19, the

:58:00.:58:07.

time that Tom Hadfield set. The question for me is whether

:58:08.:58:10.

Fraser Holmes will do anything about his colleague, the older of the two,

:58:11.:58:19.

Travis Mahoney. Four. 17 a personal best time. He has been in relay

:58:20.:58:32.

teams in the freestyle before. Smith has now decided not to hang around

:58:33.:58:36.

and try to get onto the shoulder of Travis Mahoney.

:58:37.:58:43.

You can quite see it but in lane number seven, Ross Muir of Scotland,

:58:44.:58:55.

he is right with the format in the centre -- the four in the centre,

:58:56.:59:01.

and he could really make a final here.

:59:02.:59:07.

Smith just bridging the gap between the two Australians. Keeping that

:59:08.:59:30.

full kit going. -- kick. Smith and Pavoni, good positions.

:59:31.:59:36.

I think Ross Muir might make it through. I think he could. I think

:59:37.:59:46.

he could even go with 31. Travis Mahoney hanging on well. Pavoni

:59:47.:59:55.

Looking good, he may well take it. Fraser Holmes third. Fourth was

:59:56.:00:02.

Louis Smith. They will all go through. Has fifth made it in? I

:00:03.:00:13.

think, in lane seven, Ross Muir has made it to the final by a hundredth

:00:14.:00:16.

of a second.

:00:17.:00:25.
