:01:00. > :01:05.The pressure is on at a home Games and it can be too much at times, ask

:01:06. > :01:09.Michael James. Gold to Scotland!

:01:10. > :01:14.And sometimes it can be embraced. Jessica Ennis is the Olympic

:01:15. > :01:21.champion. This man surely is not human.

:01:22. > :01:26.Johnson, Freeman, Jessica Ennis, they all delivered. So the question

:01:39. > :01:50.Hampden Park crowd. -- a wee child. A nation is watching and hoping. It

:01:51. > :01:55.is a once in a lifetime moment for the 27-year-old from Perth. Eilidh

:01:56. > :02:00.Child. She could become the first Scottish track Gold medallist since

:02:01. > :02:06.1994. She has been the female face of the Games and Hampden Park would

:02:07. > :02:08.ring out for a long time if she were to win.

:02:09. > :02:13.Welcome to one of the most anticipated evenings in Glasgow on

:02:14. > :02:17.the 20th Commonwealth Games. A host could have another night to remember

:02:18. > :02:22.but it will not be easy for Eilidh Child, she needs a personal best and

:02:23. > :02:29.there is no better time or place. But there are other stars also.

:02:30. > :02:38.To make a's K Rees Spencer is favourite for the 400 metre hurdles.

:03:11. > :03:17.Botswana's Nigel a mass -- Nigel Amos, could he do it this year in

:03:18. > :03:25.the race of the Games? That is Hampden Park. We will go

:03:26. > :03:36.there shortly. Before we do, we can check on some of today's headlines.

:03:37. > :03:45.Max Whitlock got his first -- third gymnastics Gold for England after

:03:46. > :03:50.his incredible routine. Scotland's Daniel Keatings got Gold

:03:51. > :03:56.on the pommelhorse, his country's 14th of the Games. Another medal for

:04:32. > :04:35.tonight. Live athletics on BBC One. And three, there is diving with the

:04:36. > :04:40.conclusion of the three-metre springboard. And the women's

:04:41. > :04:53.platform. We will show you that later.

:04:54. > :04:58.To Hampden Park, for what could be a thriller of a Thursday. Nine Gold

:04:59. > :05:09.medals up for grabs. What a great race the Scotsman is

:05:10. > :05:15.having. And he has done it. Well done, Guy Learmonth.

:05:16. > :05:20.Doesn't she look wonderful? Showing us and the rest of the

:05:21. > :05:32.competitors what she can do, Shelly Woods.

:05:33. > :05:56.Eilidh Child, the poster girl of the Games.

:05:57. > :06:03.It is a wet Hampden Park this evening, not that that is dampening

:06:04. > :06:07.the enthusiasm of this incredible crowd who are showing their support

:06:08. > :06:12.for these athletes, and we have had a fabulous 200 metres semifinal.

:06:13. > :06:20.You will see the finals later. The English women did very well indeed.

:06:21. > :06:25.And we will have the 800 metres semifinals. But we do have this

:06:26. > :06:30.evening some big moments, we hope, on the track. Not least, Eilidh

:06:31. > :06:37.Child, who is going on that 400 metre hurdles. These are for hourly!

:06:38. > :06:42.They are more power alley the rest but this crowd will be right behind

:06:43. > :06:45.her and I cannot wait for that race. The stadium has been

:06:46. > :06:49.her and I cannot wait for that race. atmosphere is great but it will come

:06:50. > :06:54.alive when she steps out. We have been together for a couple

:06:55. > :06:57.of hours but Michael, Paula and Tanni Grey-Thompson, what will they

:06:58. > :07:03.make of these conditions? It Tanni Grey-Thompson, what will they

:07:04. > :07:05.the race for the athletes because it is dependent on tyres. Like Formula

:07:06. > :07:10.One. What rubber they have, is dependent on tyres. Like Formula

:07:11. > :07:19.change the sprinting. great racing tonight.

:07:20. > :07:22.For the sprinters, it did not affect their time is much in the

:07:23. > :07:28.semifinals. The later they go on, the wetter it gets, it will affect

:07:29. > :07:37.times. It may hamper times. But you are not

:07:38. > :07:42.out very long. Sprinters should not be complaining! But the warm up is

:07:43. > :07:47.the thing is, that is really important. That is the only bit of

:07:48. > :07:50.cofactor. Let's bring you up to speed with the

:07:51. > :08:01.women's 800 metres semifinals. The men's with David Rudisha, got. This

:08:02. > :08:05.is how the women got on. -- coming up.

:08:06. > :08:11.Two semifinals and Lynsey Sharp three from the outside sets of.

:08:12. > :08:17.Jenny Meadows will want three from the outside sets of.

:08:18. > :08:27.quickly. -- sets of. She will just about take the lead as they break.

:08:28. > :08:33.The World Champion settles down. Very happy to have company comment

:08:34. > :08:38.not desperate to lead. Sum. There is some slowing. -- and not desperate.

:08:39. > :08:44.Jenny Meadows on the show some slowing. -- and not desperate.

:08:45. > :08:48.shoulder of Sum. She is taking out an insurance policy keeping the pace

:08:49. > :08:53.is strong and fast. Lynsey an insurance policy keeping the pace

:08:54. > :08:59.Inigo position on the outside. The crowd is responding and it is a

:09:00. > :09:07.great response. Lynsey Sharp in a difficult position. Sum controlling

:09:08. > :09:16.this event. 58.8, that is witty decent -- pretty decent. Lynsey

:09:17. > :09:21.Sharp waiting. Has Jenny Meadows got back to form? If so, she would be a

:09:22. > :09:28.contender. Down the back straight, this will unfold. This is Jenny

:09:29. > :09:33.Meadows. Lynsey Sharp is in trouble. Her face is in pain. Jenny Meadows

:09:34. > :09:42.looks comfortable, moving round the outside. And Canadian Melissa

:09:43. > :09:43.Bishop. Three will go through. Smith of New Zealand making

:09:44. > :09:51.Bishop. Three will go through. Smith Sharp is back and she is

:09:52. > :10:00.struggling. -- making a recovery. Sum in front. Jenny Meadows, militia

:10:01. > :10:04.Bishop -- Melissa Bishop. Sum is front. Three of them will go through

:10:05. > :10:22.and it will be Sum and Melissa Bishop. Lynsey Sharp, it is not to

:10:23. > :10:26.be for her on her home stage. The top three will go through and

:10:27. > :10:32.the two fastest losers. Lynsey Sharp and Jenny Meadows. Five women could

:10:33. > :10:37.go through if they get inside the time. They know what they need to do

:10:38. > :10:43.but is anybody brave enough to take the pace out? There five places in

:10:44. > :10:48.seven of these women have wrapped -- have run faster than the

:10:49. > :10:53.seven of these women have wrapped -- they know the tactics. They need a

:10:54. > :10:57.strong race. They have set off with a reasonable

:10:58. > :11:04.strong race. They have set off with seconds. The crowd cheering. Jessica

:11:05. > :11:11.Judd on the outside, the young and inexperienced athlete with so much

:11:12. > :11:18.talent. On the home straight, Jessica Judd is taking over already.

:11:19. > :11:25.Settling down and looking good. It is a slow first lap. 60.76.

:11:26. > :11:30.Jessica Judd realising it is time to take decisive action and she goes to

:11:31. > :11:39.the front. McGowan of Australia moves up. Emily Dudgeon is

:11:40. > :11:44.accelerating. The crowd have come with their flags. Jessica Judd is

:11:45. > :11:57.leading. Emily Dudgeon in second place. The top three is important.

:11:58. > :12:03.The Ugandan trying to hold it. Nicky Hamblin makes a nice move. Jessica

:12:04. > :12:11.Judd and Emily Dudgeon in the front for England and Scotland, at Hampden

:12:12. > :12:17.Park, Jessica Judd kicks away. She looks strong to me, Jessica Judd.

:12:18. > :12:26.She is going to qualify. It will be tight. She is going to make it. And

:12:27. > :12:30.unfortunately, despite a marvellous effort by Emily Dudgeon, she holds

:12:31. > :12:34.her head in her hands because as she looks at the clock, she knows for

:12:35. > :12:39.the place will not be good enough. The first heat was quicker. Well

:12:40. > :12:45.done, Jessica Judd, well-controlled and smart move. She was confident

:12:46. > :13:00.and she did everything she had to do to get through.

:13:01. > :13:05.Nicky Hamblin got through. That fourth place with that time is bad

:13:06. > :13:11.news for Emily Dudgeon, she ran a brave race. The first semifinal was

:13:12. > :13:16.quicker and the bad news for her is good news for Lynsey Sharp and Jenny

:13:17. > :13:17.Meadows because they will go through as the two fastest losers to

:13:18. > :13:27.tomorrow's final. Let's talk about Jessica Judd and

:13:28. > :13:34.how she attacked that. No way she was leaving anything to chance. She

:13:35. > :13:39.took that on full throttle. I was nervous to see how she went today. I

:13:40. > :13:44.was concerned in the heats. She looked at it tired. Is boat ahead

:13:45. > :13:50.yesterday and sometimes you expect the heat to be easy and you do not

:13:51. > :13:55.feel good and it is worrying, but she looked better and in control

:13:56. > :14:01.today. That is how I like to see running, confidently. You have a

:14:02. > :14:11.relationship as a mental with her. Passing on your wisdom. -- men tour.

:14:12. > :14:14.Somebody to talk to. You cannot underestimate how an athlete finds

:14:15. > :14:19.this. She burst onto the scene last year and she went to the World

:14:20. > :14:24.Championships but she is new to this and it is only a year since she

:14:25. > :14:30.became a senior. It is coping with those expectations.

:14:31. > :14:37.It is, and it is going into the race. She is a tall as elite and she

:14:38. > :14:43.rolls a lot still. -- athlete. She has to strengthen her core. When she

:14:44. > :14:48.runs how she naturally runs, she attacks the race from the front, she

:14:49. > :14:53.is much more successful. She seems happier and more at ease. Nicky

:14:54. > :15:05.Hamblin from New Zealand judged that perfectly. A shame for Emily but

:15:06. > :15:09.good news for Lynsey Sharp. Lynsey Sharp in the first race, down

:15:10. > :15:16.the back straight, she did not have the extra gears. You could see the

:15:17. > :15:24.panic. But she held it together and what she did which counted was she

:15:25. > :15:29.fought. She remembered the fastest losers spot is up for grabs and you

:15:30. > :15:34.need to keep working. You might be disappointed but you keep working.

:15:35. > :15:41.And this race changed a lot in the last 50 metres. She came through

:15:42. > :15:45.very strongly. Lynsey Sharp kept working through the line. And a good

:15:46. > :15:54.runner for the Northern Ireland athlete who ran a personal best. She

:15:55. > :16:04.will go away pleased. Sum is the class act in the field.

:16:05. > :16:11.She is, certainly, she is the number one so far this year and they will

:16:12. > :16:16.aim for her in the final. Hopefully, it might not be quite as

:16:17. > :16:21.wet as it is now, it is bouncing. We have not seen it like this at

:16:22. > :16:26.Hampden Park so hopefully normal service will resume. We have already

:16:27. > :17:01.had the men's discus final. Steve Backley will tell you how that went.

:17:02. > :17:13.unfold. Gowda's third throw. It was enough to win. The heavens opened in

:17:14. > :17:20.the last round and made it difficult for anyone to challenge the lead

:17:21. > :17:34.from Gowda. Superb win. Second voyage to go. -- four years ago.

:17:35. > :17:38.There is the confirmation. Disappointment for Brett Morse. He

:17:39. > :17:40.was in fourth position. Benn Harradine, who won this

:17:41. > :17:52.Disappointment for Brett Morse. He was in fourth competition four years

:17:53. > :17:59.ago just went ahead of him. There are the minor places of what was a

:18:00. > :18:01.difficult competition. It was wet and it made the distances probably

:18:02. > :18:12.reflect that. We are building up towards the

:18:13. > :18:20.women's 1500 metres. Shelly Woods is the world record-holder. She has

:18:21. > :18:21.tough opposition. Diane Roy of Canada is the defending Commonwealth

:18:22. > :18:27.Games champion. Canada is the defending Commonwealth

:18:28. > :18:33.do you see her as her arrival? She has a lot of experience. The weather

:18:34. > :18:40.conditions are going to make it more tactical. They are starting off the

:18:41. > :18:44.track and they have asked to start in a straight line rather than

:18:45. > :18:52.starting on the bend. The weather conditions do mean it will be

:18:53. > :19:01.slippy. It is unusual to see them start this far out. Shelly Woods has

:19:02. > :19:09.started to train with David Weir. Have you seen a change in her racing

:19:10. > :19:09.and attitude? It has been tough. The coach who

:19:10. > :19:13.and attitude? It has been tough. took her to the world record, they

:19:14. > :19:19.split up not took her to the world record, they

:19:20. > :19:23.through different variations. She needs to learn sprint starts and

:19:24. > :19:33.come through strongly at the end. It is a lot of travelling to David

:19:34. > :19:35.Weir, but I think we will see the benefits of that.

:19:36. > :19:42.Angela Ballard from Australia. Paralympic medallist. Really good

:19:43. > :19:59.home interest. Lauren Rowles of England. We have already seen Sammy

:20:00. > :20:06.Kinghorn. It is throwing it down. Christie Dawes will be a threat, the

:20:07. > :20:15.Australian. Third in the Paralympic games in London in the 5000 metres.

:20:16. > :20:31.I am sure there will be cheering for the athletes on the inside. Shelly

:20:32. > :20:35.Woods, about to be introduced. T53 is completely paralysed

:20:36. > :20:42.Woods, about to be introduced. T53 waist down. Jade Jones. Tanni

:20:43. > :20:48.Grey-Thompson has been guiding Jade Jones threw her career. We have not

:20:49. > :21:14.mentioned Diane Roy, the defending champion. 43 years of age now from

:21:15. > :21:31.Canada. Tricky conditions. Shelly Woods moving out a little bit. Diane

:21:32. > :21:38.Roy will be on the outside. Sammy Kinghorn, interesting story.

:21:39. > :21:45.Terrible accident. Snow fell on the roof as she was out clearing snow.

:21:46. > :21:49.Paralysed at the age of 14, took up wheelchair racing and is now

:21:50. > :21:56.representing her country just four years later. She will be loving

:21:57. > :21:59.this, but not loving the conditions. Shelly Woods a little bit

:22:00. > :22:07.this, but not loving the conditions. back, Tanni? You can see how much

:22:08. > :22:11.water is on the track and how much spray is coming up into Christie

:22:12. > :22:16.Dawes' face. You get spray from the front wheels and the back wheels.

:22:17. > :22:22.The weather forecast did say it with the raining, but a lot of the women

:22:23. > :22:27.would be hoping it would be tried to stop the rot but they use on the

:22:28. > :22:36.pushing rims and gloves, on the first couple of pushes, it makes it

:22:37. > :22:39.hard to kick and to push. This race is about who will have the most grip

:22:40. > :22:44.in these conditions. Shelly Woods towards the back on the outside.

:22:45. > :22:54.Sammy Kinghorn towards the back as well. Diane Roy is looking to see

:22:55. > :22:59.what is happening behind. Christie Dawes and Angie Ballard of

:23:00. > :23:03.Australia. Jade Jones just looking for work Shelly Woods is placing

:23:04. > :23:09.herself as they come round now with two laps to go. Nobody really trying

:23:10. > :23:16.to push away in these tricky conditions. Diane Roy is controlling

:23:17. > :23:24.it at a moment, is that where you think she should be, Tanni? She is

:23:25. > :23:30.in the perfect position to control it. By the time the sprint kicks to

:23:31. > :23:34.the back of the pack, it is a bit like bike racing, it is almost too

:23:35. > :23:40.late. Shelly Woods has come really wide but is trying to stay out of

:23:41. > :23:44.trouble. Jade Jones does not want to be caught in the middle of the pack.

:23:45. > :23:52.Christie Dawes is sitting on Diane Roy's shoulder. She won the bronze

:23:53. > :23:56.medal in Beijing. It is so hard for these women right now. They are all

:23:57. > :24:05.watching each other. It will be about who is brave. Roy is making it

:24:06. > :24:12.harder on the rest of the pack. Coming round to take the belt.

:24:13. > :24:19.Shelly Woods still a long way back. Jade Jones is in the best position

:24:20. > :24:28.at the moment. -- Bell. Roy from the front is pushing hard. Shelly Woods

:24:29. > :24:33.is a long way off the pace. It is Angie Ballard who is behind the

:24:34. > :24:36.Canadian. Down the back straight and they are spread out as Roy has

:24:37. > :24:47.pushed on from the front and stretched them out. Jade Jones into

:24:48. > :24:53.third place. Still has an opportunity. Roy at the front, the

:24:54. > :24:57.veteran. Sitting behind her is Angie Ballard of Australia. Maybe Jade

:24:58. > :25:03.Jones can find something extra. Angie Ballard moves out, has she got

:25:04. > :25:09.the pace at the end? The Australian might do it. It is going to be the

:25:10. > :25:14.gold medal for Australia. Roy settles but the silver and an

:25:15. > :25:23.excellent bronze the Jade Jones. 3.59, the winning time. It was about

:25:24. > :25:31.being patients, conditions. Roy did so much of the work. Shelly Woods

:25:32. > :25:37.will be so disappointed with her performance. Never in it and never

:25:38. > :25:42.close enough. When it got going, Jones was just about in the right

:25:43. > :25:53.spot. Did not have the power of the other two ahead of her, but she is

:25:54. > :26:01.only 18 years of age. Gold medal that Angela Ballard of Australia.

:26:02. > :26:08.Tanni you must be proud of Jade Jones? Just for a moment you thought

:26:09. > :26:11.she might be close enough to get this? She was finishing really

:26:12. > :26:16.strongly but did not have this? She was finishing really

:26:17. > :26:22.response when the kick was made. Smart racing bike Angela Ballard.

:26:23. > :26:28.She is actually a T53 athletes so does not have stomach muscles or

:26:29. > :26:35.lower back. But sat behind Roy and waited for the final sprint. There

:26:36. > :26:37.will be a lot of surprised women, I don't think many people thought

:26:38. > :26:44.Angela Ballard was going to win this race. She is just behind Roy. Pulls

:26:45. > :26:52.out with perfect timing. Once you get level, you know you are going

:26:53. > :27:01.faster. Roy just has nothing left to give. She looks up and she shakes

:27:02. > :27:08.her head. She is done. Roy, was the one who tried to control it from the

:27:09. > :27:12.front but ran out of steam at the end. Not enough power. Angela

:27:13. > :27:16.Ballard, head down and pushing hard. Jade Jones, all the way to the

:27:17. > :27:22.and surely there will be more to come from her as her career

:27:23. > :27:30.develops. Perfect timing. Shake up the head from Roy. Let's talk to the

:27:31. > :27:38.bronze-medallist. Jade Jones. Age of 18, this is meant to be a

:27:39. > :27:44.building block and here you are with a bronze medal! It is my first

:27:45. > :27:47.senior medal and it's great to do it in front of a home crowd. How

:27:48. > :27:53.difficult weather conditions? The rain effects is a lot. But I pushed

:27:54. > :27:57.quite well in the rain. When did you realise and medal was within your

:27:58. > :28:02.grasp? I didn't until I crossed the line. I just going for the line. It

:28:03. > :28:08.does not really line. I just going for the line.

:28:09. > :28:11.sink in. With it all going on and the noise, you can hear the

:28:12. > :28:20.cacophony of noise, what will you thinking? It follows you around the

:28:21. > :28:26.stadium and keeps you going. Are you able to stay focused in that

:28:27. > :28:28.environment? It is difficult but you can focus. It is good to have

:28:29. > :28:29.environment? It is difficult but that support, you never really get

:28:30. > :28:33.environment? It is difficult but that in Paralympic events. It is

:28:34. > :28:38.amazing. Here you go with the bronze medal. We know you have so much

:28:39. > :28:45.potential, but as you said the other day, it is usually your late 20s

:28:46. > :28:52.when you are taking? Yes, it is a great building block for me to

:28:53. > :29:00.progress from. It is good to know I am progressing. Fantastic

:29:01. > :29:08.performance. Congratulations again. Thank you so much. Indeed, it has

:29:09. > :29:13.been good games for the north-east. Jade Jones of Middlesbrough, bronze

:29:14. > :29:30.medal. Time is not so important in these conditions. Diane Roy, of

:29:31. > :29:35.Canada with a silver medal. We can add a bit of Wales into that medal.

:29:36. > :29:40.You have a huge vested interest there as a coach. It is painful. I

:29:41. > :29:48.was more nervous before the race than they were. I felt I was pushing

:29:49. > :29:54.every single push with her. My heart rate was up. I am really proud of

:29:55. > :30:01.her. She had a smart, tactical race. It is a big step up. Roy has been

:30:02. > :30:06.racing for a lot of years, Ballard, champion back in 2002. She has never

:30:07. > :30:10.lived up to that really. But it is tough when you are sitting here

:30:11. > :30:15.trying to do an objective commentary when you are so close to one of the

:30:16. > :30:20.races. You achieved it and you achieved that level with her as

:30:21. > :30:25.well. Her and his lesson and delight is seeping through the screen. The

:30:26. > :30:27.women's long jump final tonight, Shara Proctor on paper certainly the

:30:28. > :30:41.strongest in the field. COMMENTATOR: Medals on paper is one

:30:42. > :30:47.thing that we need to convert and Shara Proctor, forever this is an

:30:48. > :30:53.opportunity. Here is your start list for the long jump final and in the

:30:54. > :30:57.middle of that is Shara Proctor. Jazmin Sawyers is joining her,

:30:58. > :31:03.another English jumper. But look at the Nettey. -- look out for

:31:04. > :31:07.another English jumper. But look at Here is the first jump of that 23

:31:08. > :31:16.rolled, Christabel Nettey. She handled that well. Very

:31:17. > :31:38.difficult conditions. We will confirm her distance,

:31:39. > :31:51.Christabel Nettey. It was about 6.5 metres. Shara Proctor's first

:31:52. > :31:54.attempt. No, no, no. Oh, dear. Shara Proctor has pulled up with what

:31:55. > :32:02.looks like something down the left leg. Didn't give any indication is

:32:03. > :32:08.there other than maybe wearing the long tights. Oh, my word. Is

:32:09. > :32:13.something called? Haven't heard any word of any injuries. She is

:32:14. > :32:21.favourite on paper. She leads the rankings six metres and 82. The

:32:22. > :32:27.front of her left side. Quadricep, hip flexed... No, no. Desperately

:32:28. > :32:28.disappointing. A golden opportunity slips through the hands of Shara

:32:29. > :32:41.Proctor. She will be desperately

:32:42. > :32:46.disappointed. She has gone out without even a jump for this

:32:47. > :32:54.Commonwealth Games. She has her head in her hands. Six in the World

:32:55. > :32:58.Championships last year. We were going to have a chat about how she

:32:59. > :33:02.coped with the big environment of these Games because she does not

:33:03. > :33:08.necessarily deliver the distances she can do at the one-off heats, but

:33:09. > :33:15.she hasn't even had the opportunity. Michael. Yes, really difficult for

:33:16. > :33:21.her. To come here and compete and not progress is one thing, but

:33:22. > :33:27.injuries are a part of the sport, but they are so, so difficult. As

:33:28. > :33:32.Steve said, it looks even like a hip flexed or quadricep injury and it

:33:33. > :33:37.looks like something that may be with the long tights on, she felt

:33:38. > :33:41.something in warm up, not enough to pull out but knowing maybe it was

:33:42. > :33:48.there. She looked a bit timid as she took off down the runway initially.

:33:49. > :33:51.Really disappointing. Things can happen on the warm up track and if

:33:52. > :33:57.it is not a Olympics or Commonwealth Games, she might pull out, but you

:33:58. > :34:03.put your body on the line and train for it and this is the moment of

:34:04. > :34:09.your season. Obviously, she sees I did -- decided to go ahead. Yes, in

:34:10. > :34:15.warm up you are just warming your body up, not going full blast. You

:34:16. > :34:20.have to go full blast to know if it is really an injury or not. These

:34:21. > :34:25.conditions do not help. Much more difficult to warm up, because it is

:34:26. > :34:34.cool and damp. There he is, David Weir, and his CV is just ridiculous.

:34:35. > :34:43.Six Olympic gold medals. Six marathon wins. The man can go over a

:34:44. > :34:53.wide range of distances. It is the T54 1500m tonight. The rain is

:34:54. > :34:59.abating somewhat. I first met David Weir when he was seven years old, a

:35:00. > :35:04.skinny little kid. He has always had a lovely technique. He did not have

:35:05. > :35:09.to learn it, he just did it. I was with him in Atlanta when he was 16.

:35:10. > :35:15.I went all his races with him. He was kind of nervous and I was the

:35:16. > :35:22.one who held his hand. After Athens he'd had enough. He was disappointed

:35:23. > :35:26.and went off and did other things. You are too modest. You are the

:35:27. > :35:31.reason he came back. He saw you and decided, I want a piece of that. I

:35:32. > :35:35.kept telling him he was talented and he did not believe me. It took him

:35:36. > :35:41.until Athens to realise that he could do it. And he has just been

:35:42. > :35:45.dominant ever since. He has a really good coaching partnership with Jenny

:35:46. > :35:49.Archer. They work so well together. He's very selective in the races he

:35:50. > :35:59.does. He does. He's under a lot of pressure. In Beijing he was the only

:36:00. > :36:04.gold medallist, which was really hard to deal with. A lot of time

:36:05. > :36:11.David Weir tonight. A fabulous ambassador for his sport. Fingers

:36:12. > :36:15.crossed for him. Let head to Andrew Cotter.

:36:16. > :36:27.COMMENTATOR: The rain has eased off. The Kenyan we see is one of ten

:36:28. > :36:34.athletes to contest this vinyl. Richard Coleman is actually a T 53.

:36:35. > :36:44.The only tea 53 in this race dominated by T54s listen to this.

:36:45. > :36:47.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE I wonder how he will judge this and raise it.

:36:48. > :36:57.A cheer as well for young Will Smith. He does so much to bring

:36:58. > :37:02.young para athletes through. Josh Cassidy may be a threat to David

:37:03. > :37:08.Weir. Tucked himself in behind Weir in the heat to come through. Richard

:37:09. > :37:18.Nicholson, as we said, one of three Australians.

:37:19. > :37:29.The defending Commonwealth champion. He was the quickest

:37:30. > :37:36.qualifier, Rick his own games record in qualifying. They are very

:37:37. > :37:45.tactical races. He was involved in a slower hit, David Weir. -- slower

:37:46. > :37:49.hit. Three and three quarters lapse of this soggy hand on track, but the

:37:50. > :37:54.rain has abated and the noise will grow for all of these men. David

:37:55. > :37:58.Weir having a little look across. I wonder how he will race this. He won

:37:59. > :38:05.at Paris in the Diamond league meeting. He stormed forward from the

:38:06. > :38:12.back. He was testing his speed. He has a wonderful change of speed. At

:38:13. > :38:16.Glasgow here in the Diamond league a couple of weeks ago he did it more

:38:17. > :38:24.conventionally. He eased his way through. I think that might be the

:38:25. > :38:28.approach this evening. Nobody seems to want to spend too much time in

:38:29. > :38:34.Lane 1. I think it is because it is very wet out there and it can make

:38:35. > :38:40.it challenging to push. But Kurt firmly having a look on his outside,

:38:41. > :38:45.checking his there. He does not want to allow anyone to jump into Lane 1.

:38:46. > :38:50.Yesterday I saw him and asked about his tactics are today. I think Kurt

:38:51. > :38:55.has always been a bit disappointed that there are not more of the male

:38:56. > :38:59.athletes that want to take the race to Dave, because he has such a

:39:00. > :39:05.devastating take on the sprint. You cannot leave it to the end. In

:39:06. > :39:07.London he was asking for help and no one would help him. I do not think

:39:08. > :39:12.there will be one would help him. I do not think

:39:13. > :39:16.the Australians but it is whether British Olympians might sacrifice a

:39:17. > :39:21.place also just to try to get in the way between David Weir. But you can

:39:22. > :39:34.see on the outside now, Dave has decided he does not want to be

:39:35. > :39:40.caught behind anybody. Josh Cassidy out in the front at the moment. His

:39:41. > :39:45.fair dollar partner would have been a favourite for the women's 1500m at

:39:46. > :39:57.she developed a deep vein thrombosis on the way to the country so she was

:39:58. > :40:01.unable to compete. Will Smith as well, and the far more experienced

:40:02. > :40:04.David Weir. He's settling in, slowing down a bit. I mentioned this

:40:05. > :40:10.turn of speed slowing down a bit. I mentioned this

:40:11. > :40:13.He really can turn it on. He has won at all distances. Cassidy in second

:40:14. > :40:16.place. at all distances. Cassidy in second

:40:17. > :40:25.outside for Australian, at all distances. Cassidy in second

:40:26. > :40:32.Australia, so two Australians out there. David Weir has not started to

:40:33. > :40:40.pick up the pace too much. He is now putting in a bit more effort. You

:40:41. > :40:44.can see his hand spin is fantastic. Kurt will try to come in behind

:40:45. > :40:44.can see his hand spin is fantastic. but at that speed it will be

:40:45. > :40:58.difficult. A masterpiece of but at that speed it will be

:40:59. > :41:06.the roar of the crowd fit him at the Olympic stadium, now you hear it at

:41:07. > :41:15.Hampden Park. David Weir is Commonwealth champion. Second goes

:41:16. > :41:20.to Fearnley. What a victory, six cup medals at Paralympics. Six times a

:41:21. > :41:25.winner of the London Marathon. And to add to that glorious freckles,

:41:26. > :41:38.now common wealth games champion in the 1500m. He made it look so easy.

:41:39. > :41:47.-- that glorious record, now Commonwealth Games champion.

:41:48. > :41:51.Normally a few days before races, David will say he does not feel well

:41:52. > :41:56.and he normally has problems. Coming into this race, he has been fine. An

:41:57. > :42:03.incredible race by David Weir. He was leaving it until this season, I

:42:04. > :42:18.think, to decide whether he will carry on to rear. A fifth place of

:42:19. > :42:22.Will Smith there. I think the Swiss athlete who will be racing against

:42:23. > :42:27.him in the European Championships in Swansea next month is the closest

:42:28. > :42:32.David Weir has two a great rival. They were racing together a few

:42:33. > :42:36.weeks ago. I think they have virtually the same top speed. It

:42:37. > :42:40.depends who will go out hard and he will be able to control from the

:42:41. > :42:43.front. Looking at the shape David Weir is in tonight, it will be

:42:44. > :42:49.really hard to say who will beat him. Where does this come from, this

:42:50. > :42:57.change in speed? He has always just had it. He has always had tremendous

:42:58. > :42:58.hand speed, great position in the chair. He spent a

:42:59. > :43:05.hand speed, great position in the working on the aerodynamics and

:43:06. > :43:13.making sure his chair fits him as best as it can. He does not use

:43:14. > :43:16.plastic gloves, but suede and leather. That allows him to change

:43:17. > :43:24.his hand position, grip the wheel when it is wet and use the best kind

:43:25. > :43:28.of glue. There are not many races at this level where you can beat the

:43:29. > :43:33.Australians and Canadians. Interesting you were talking about

:43:34. > :43:39.the softer gloves, and the other athletes cannot hear David Weir

:43:40. > :43:42.coming with those. With the harder clothes you can hear the tap. But I

:43:43. > :43:44.do not think anyone would have heard anything with the noise of the

:43:45. > :43:57.crowd. A very happy David Weir. The Golden

:43:58. > :44:03.set is yours. It is a nice feeling. It was in the back of my mind after

:44:04. > :44:10.2012, should I carry on? This is why I carried on. I did not want to not

:44:11. > :44:16.represent England or win a gold medal here. It feels like London. So

:44:17. > :44:21.many English flags. The Scottish and Welsh here. The Home Nations have

:44:22. > :44:28.been great. You are getting better with age. Faster. A bit faster. I

:44:29. > :44:32.was worried about the weather because the manufacture of my

:44:33. > :44:35.clothes do not make them any more. I have been trying a lot of different

:44:36. > :44:37.stuff and it has not been working in the rain. I prayed I

:44:38. > :44:39.stuff and it has not been working in the rain. I prayed would be all

:44:40. > :44:47.right for the sprint at the end, which I was. Tell everyone at home

:44:48. > :44:52.how difficult it is compared to a dry race. It is so difficult. We

:44:53. > :45:00.have contact on the rims and you get spray from the wheels. That is why I

:45:01. > :45:09.was going wide in parts, because there were puddles. You try to stay

:45:10. > :45:13.dry as long as possible. I have to got to find the right proper

:45:14. > :45:26.material to work in the rain, but I went anyway, so... You executed it

:45:27. > :45:28.perfectly. Congratulations. He will go on to win many more, I am sure

:45:29. > :45:35.that he is the Commonwealth go on to win many more, I am sure

:45:36. > :45:38.that Games champion. They loved him here tonight. So to confirm the

:45:39. > :45:52.result: Another fabulous David Weir

:45:53. > :45:58.performance. The most exciting thing is, you get the sense his excitement

:45:59. > :46:05.is renewed and we will get to see him competing at Rio? He has the

:46:06. > :46:11.ability to win another four gold medals. He deserves it because he is

:46:12. > :46:22.an amazing athlete. The next race on the track is the men's 800 metres.

:46:23. > :46:36.David Rudisha putting in an appearance. Who better to build this

:46:37. > :46:40.one up than Michael Johnson. Here at the Commonwealth Games, the stars of

:46:41. > :46:47.the track have taken centre stage. Kirani James is going to take the

:46:48. > :46:59.bronze medal. We have heard Hampden Park raw and witness some

:47:00. > :47:06.world-class victories. The gold goes to Jamaica once more. But tonight,

:47:07. > :47:11.speed meets endurance over two laps of the track. 100 seconds, the eight

:47:12. > :47:18.and would meet a world record and the man responsible for it will be

:47:19. > :47:24.striving for the gold medal again. David Rudisha. Unbelievable. But

:47:25. > :47:39.this time, it may not come without a fight. Nigel Amos. The powerhouses

:47:40. > :47:46.are getting ready to do battle. Prepare yourself for a night of

:47:47. > :47:50.fears competition. Well, that night is very much under

:47:51. > :47:59.way and this should be one of the jewels in the crown. But he might

:48:00. > :48:03.not get it all his own way. Amos has surpassed him in winning a global

:48:04. > :48:09.title and he is the man in form but David Rudisha is still coming back?

:48:10. > :48:13.David Rudisha has continued to improve to this point. It will be a

:48:14. > :48:17.big test, Paula? It'll be an improve to this point. It will be a

:48:18. > :48:26.interesting race. He does not need any pacemakers. Be interesting to

:48:27. > :48:38.see if Andre Olivier will give any help to nice. The Commonwealth Games

:48:39. > :48:49.championship record is still held held by Steve Cram, set 28 years ago

:48:50. > :48:53.in Edinburgh. I am not sure anybody will break that record win it by a

:48:54. > :49:01.distance, what do you think? Maybe Brendan should dance about. It is

:49:02. > :49:07.not dissimilar day, it is a bit wet. It was in Edinburgh all those years

:49:08. > :49:14.ago. That was a great race. No wonder that time still is lands, you

:49:15. > :49:21.were in fantastic form. David Rudisha may have a go at your

:49:22. > :49:29.record. He may or may not have a go. That is Ferguson Rotich. Andre

:49:30. > :49:38.Olivier, training partner of Amos. We had a lane redraw because of a

:49:39. > :49:47.disqualification. We had a lane redraw because of a

:49:48. > :49:48.injury last year as well, both missed the world Championships.

:49:49. > :50:09.David Rudisha on the comeback trail. He is absolutely a legend already.

:50:10. > :50:17.Can he win the Commonwealth title? Jeffrey Riseley was advanced into

:50:18. > :50:20.this final. Michael Rimmer came through as the fastest loser. Has

:50:21. > :50:32.been struggling with injuries. But not this man, Guy Learmonth. Raised

:50:33. > :50:39.the roof almost off Hampden Park when he qualified yesterday. Talking

:50:40. > :50:45.to David Rudisha's team, they said the weather will be a factor. He

:50:46. > :50:51.does not like it, but it does that matter because he only has one way

:50:52. > :50:52.to run. He will stick with his game plan and will want to try to run

:50:53. > :51:00.away from Amos. plan and will want to try to run

:51:01. > :51:12.nuances. He has got to judge this right. The men's 800-metre final.

:51:13. > :51:18.David Rudisha, it has right. The men's 800-metre final.

:51:19. > :51:27.wait to get himself back into right. The men's 800-metre final.

:51:28. > :51:31.form, the form he hopes will see him run to this title. He is a free

:51:32. > :51:31.running, front running legends of middle-distance running already.

:51:32. > :51:43.David Rudisha goes to middle-distance running already.

:51:44. > :51:50.expect him to be. David Rudisha trying to control this race as he

:51:51. > :51:55.did in London. But in London he was fit and committed. He was so

:51:56. > :52:05.powerful. Tonight, it is different, he has had an injury. Tonight, a

:52:06. > :52:09.proud Maasai warrior needs different weapons. He needs to be more

:52:10. > :52:13.controlled, needs to be more aware and be brave and determined when he

:52:14. > :52:18.comes under pressure. In London he did not come under pressure, but

:52:19. > :52:26.tonight we expect Amos to put him under pressure. Now he has to

:52:27. > :52:35.respond. His team-mate, Ferguson Rotich moved from the back. He is

:52:36. > :52:41.working hard. Amos in a good place. Andre Olivier, the tall South

:52:42. > :52:47.African. David Rudisha is coming under pressure. But now he starts to

:52:48. > :52:53.kick from the front. Amos is all over the place. Moves out wide. Now

:52:54. > :52:59.he gives chase. Amos is going to take the gold medal. Amos wins it.

:53:00. > :53:06.David Rudisha second. Andre Olivier might have just got the bronze

:53:07. > :53:15.medal. He tried his normal game plan, but it wasn't hard or quick

:53:16. > :53:20.enough. The only one who could beat him was himself. He got into a

:53:21. > :53:28.terrible place on the long straights, extricated himself. Nigel

:53:29. > :53:35.Amos of what swan is the Commonwealth champion. -- Nijel

:53:36. > :53:43.Amos. He is a huge foot baulk plan -- fan. He picked up a four ball

:53:44. > :53:47.injury last year. He knows David Rudisha very well now. He followed

:53:48. > :53:54.him in the Olympic games. They have picked up medals. Andre Olivier has

:53:55. > :54:04.been confirmed in the bronze medal. Look at what that means to Amos.

:54:05. > :54:12.That was not the David Rudisha of London 2012. I am not sure running

:54:13. > :54:17.52.7 was going to give him a good chance given how well Amos has been

:54:18. > :54:19.going? We knew he would come under pressure tonight, we knew he would

:54:20. > :54:24.have two show a different performance. He loves to run at the

:54:25. > :54:32.front. He wasn't going to change that, but at the end of the day,

:54:33. > :54:34.David Rudisha, gave the best he could. He has been injured. This man

:54:35. > :54:43.was always going to be a danger. Here they come to the bell. David

:54:44. > :54:48.Rudisha looks strong but is not doing enough. Not testing Amos. On

:54:49. > :54:55.the outside, his team-mate comes close. But David Rudisha down the

:54:56. > :55:02.back straight, he is joined by his team-mate. Lengthening his stride.

:55:03. > :55:05.On the outside, Andre Olivier, the training partner of Amos. It looked

:55:06. > :55:13.as though Amos was going to be trapped. David Rudisha starts to

:55:14. > :55:20.kick. Amos did not look comfortable. Ferguson Rotich is trying to protect

:55:21. > :55:25.David Rudisha. Looks as though he might have had a chance, David

:55:26. > :55:32.Rudisha. Amos comes through, determined to beat the great man. At

:55:33. > :55:38.the end of the day, Amos, the Olympic silver-medallist becomes the

:55:39. > :55:42.Commonwealth champion. David Rudisha proves he is only human. This is

:55:43. > :55:51.David Rudisha trying to sprint. He normally tries to sprint in a faster

:55:52. > :55:56.pace. Amos is eating up the yards. David Rudisha was under pressure. I

:55:57. > :56:03.think he did well, David Rudisha, to come and run a fine race. He is only

:56:04. > :56:06.human. He wasn't able to do it tonight because he wasn't fit

:56:07. > :56:14.enough. Who knows, in a year's time? Amos up what swan are showing

:56:15. > :56:21.his polite and glory. And for him to be the athlete -- beat the athlete

:56:22. > :56:24.he admires so much. And with his team-mate in the bronze medal

:56:25. > :56:28.position, he will be thrilled. It was a great performance against a

:56:29. > :56:39.great athlete and I am delighted David Rudisha came here and gave us

:56:40. > :56:43.a race to remember. He is a huge talents, like David Rudisha. And

:56:44. > :56:50.unlike two years ago, Amos comes out on top. David Rudisha of Kenya has

:56:51. > :57:01.to settle for the silver medal. Andre Olivier, the training partner

:57:02. > :57:10.of Nijel Amos, takes the bronze medal. Michael Rimmer was seventh.

:57:11. > :57:24.STUDIO: For David Rudisha to take it on and comeback from injury, David

:57:25. > :57:29.Rudisha has stepped up a bit more? It was an interesting race. It was

:57:30. > :57:34.like watching two teams working together in the form of Andre

:57:35. > :57:40.Olivier and Amos. Ferguson Rotich was trying to block Amos in there.

:57:41. > :57:43.Andre Olivier now coming up on his shoulder. At this point he has the

:57:44. > :57:51.opportunity to move forward and he would have blocked Amos in there. As

:57:52. > :57:56.they come off the bend, Andre Olivier goes wider than he needs

:57:57. > :58:02.to. Amos has David Rudisha and the finishing line in his sights. David

:58:03. > :58:09.Rudisha, you can see the resignation because he knows there is nothing

:58:10. > :58:14.left in his legs. He did everything right in that race, but not in the

:58:15. > :58:19.shape we have seen him in in previous years. He is trying to

:58:20. > :58:23.raise himself into shape. He came close, but came up against an

:58:24. > :58:29.athlete who was a little bit more hungry. A bit closer than we saw in

:58:30. > :58:35.Monaco. But you sense in a couple of months he will be in better shape.

:58:36. > :58:39.Great Andre Olivier eight got the bronze medal because of the teamwork

:58:40. > :58:44.and the wonderful reaction from Amos as well. That's head down to Phil

:58:45. > :58:48.Jones. David, tremendous race between you

:58:49. > :58:53.and Nijel. We always expected it might be. But I think this crowd

:58:54. > :59:00.wanted you to get the gold medal, but in the end it was silver? It was

:59:01. > :59:09.awesome. The crowd was fantastic. The race was good. I found it a

:59:10. > :59:18.little bit difficult but I think it was because I did not have good

:59:19. > :59:25.preparation. Tell me about your approach, knowing Nijel was in there

:59:26. > :59:34.and how competitive he is? We have been racing together and he is a

:59:35. > :59:42.tough guy. We ran a tactical race. He was good tonight. You know this

:59:43. > :59:50.man well. You have a great deal of respect each other, Nijel and

:59:51. > :00:02.congratulations. This gentleman here, he will always be my hero. He

:00:03. > :00:05.is brave enough. You gave us some great entertainment, congratulations

:00:06. > :00:11.on your gold medal and you'll silver medal and I hope you treasure the

:00:12. > :00:17.memories from here. Thank you very much. It is a great place. Even my

:00:18. > :00:28.training partner came third. Thank you very much. STUDIO: Desperate

:00:29. > :00:32.scenes on the far side of the stadium. That is the sad face of

:00:33. > :00:36.Shara Proctor, because you may have seen, she took to her first attempt

:00:37. > :00:43.only to pull up holding her left leg. Oh, terrible. She came in is

:00:44. > :00:47.probably favourite. The English athlete desperately wanted to make

:00:48. > :00:58.her mark, and thought that gold might just be a few jumps away, but

:00:59. > :01:06.not to be. Meanwhile, that long jump final continues. This is the second

:01:07. > :01:09.attempt of Christabel Nettey. We saw her jump 6.47 in the first round, to

:01:10. > :01:22.take the lead. The yellow line there is her only of

:01:23. > :01:30.6.47, the same distance she jumped in qualification.

:01:31. > :01:46.Her season's best is 6.73. Her coach offers words of advice. Slightly

:01:47. > :02:00.improved, by two centimetres. Jazmin Sawyers is looking to some support.

:02:01. > :02:08.Well, that looks good. She looks pleased enough. Young Jazmin

:02:09. > :02:14.Sawyers, 20 years of age. This pleased enough. Young Jazmin

:02:15. > :02:20.just the sort of competition to get her used to what is an important

:02:21. > :02:24.part of Championship progression. A world junior bronze medallist. A

:02:25. > :02:31.season's best of 6.47. Well done, Jazmin. Second place. So here we

:02:32. > :02:49.have Ese Brume of Nigeria. 21 That was high off the board. Was it

:02:50. > :02:51.good? It looks as though it might have taken the lead if it's illegal.

:02:52. > :03:07., yes, it is. Very little form to talk about, but

:03:08. > :03:09.a lifetime best for Ese Brume, to take the lead in the third round of

:03:10. > :03:22.the halfway stage. Desperately sorry for Shara Proctor.

:03:23. > :03:29.The last races on the track tonight are the men's and women's 200m. But

:03:30. > :03:34.first a child in the 400m hurdles. -- Hayley Child. Let's see you had

:03:35. > :03:42.the final line-up was made up. -- let's show you how the final

:03:43. > :04:11.line-up was made up. COMMENTATOR: Jodie Williams takes

:04:12. > :04:19.second behind Blessing Okagbare. 22.43.

:04:20. > :04:27.COMMENTATOR: The Canadian started quickly in Lane 3. But it is Calvert

:04:28. > :04:55.of Jamaica. Williams off to a decent start

:04:56. > :05:09.Henry outside her just around the bend. Davies of Canada running well.

:05:10. > :05:16.Bianca Williams looking comfortable. Very impressive. 23.17.

:05:17. > :05:22.So these of the qualifiers for the women's 200m final. Blessing

:05:23. > :05:27.Okagbare a strong favourite. Good run, though, from Jodie Williams. A

:05:28. > :05:54.little bit slower off the blocks. Well, well, well. Livermore, Bailey

:05:55. > :06:05.and Talbot in a photo finish. It is Danny Talbot. 20.47.

:06:06. > :06:52.Avril from the crowd. -- the crowd roars.

:06:53. > :07:04.It is all about prior. -- Bryan. After all of that, this is how they

:07:05. > :07:17.will line up later on. The three Jamaicans, the big threats, three,

:07:18. > :07:18.four and five. A little later tonight we have the women's final as

:07:19. > :07:28.well. A quick line about the lane draws.

:07:29. > :07:32.When the women's ways Jodie Williams is on the outside of blessing

:07:33. > :07:42.Okagbare. Is that good? I preferred that she would be on the inside. She

:07:43. > :07:46.is competing as if she is a little bit inexperienced even though she

:07:47. > :07:51.has extensive experience at a junior level. I would prefer she was

:07:52. > :07:58.inside. Of the English girls left, best chance? Jodie. That was almost

:07:59. > :08:03.a personal best she ran in the semifinal. Just a few hundreds of a

:08:04. > :08:11.second off a personal best. I think she will run a personal best and has

:08:12. > :08:13.a very good chance of a silver. 8:45pm for the women, 9:10pm for the

:08:14. > :08:28.men. Let's look at long jump. COMMENTATOR: I feel compelled to

:08:29. > :08:29.mention Katherine Thompson, at the top of the rankings, he would have

:08:30. > :08:42.loved to have been a part of this. -- Johnson-Thompson, who would have

:08:43. > :08:47.loved to have been part of this. Maybe as a result of the wet

:08:48. > :08:58.weather... Another solid performance for the

:08:59. > :09:06.21-year-old. 6.56 in the third round. Already in the lead. Enjoying

:09:07. > :09:18.herself. Maybe a slight improvement. Marginal if that. Crucial to get

:09:19. > :09:26.advice from the coach. 6.50 that one, so no improvement from Brume.

:09:27. > :09:34.The men's 400m hurdles if coming first, then the women's. It features

:09:35. > :09:42.the poster girl for the Commonwealth Games, Hayley Child. Her face has

:09:43. > :09:44.been everywhere. -- Eilidh Child. She certainly grew up in a household

:09:45. > :10:09.that loved its sport. I'm one of four, two sisters and one

:10:10. > :10:15.brother I have got. My sister and I did athletics and my brother had

:10:16. > :10:25.played football. We were surrounded by sport.

:10:26. > :10:37.I joined the team at the school and my sister did the same. She went and

:10:38. > :10:41.won the cross country. I went along and won it too and then tried

:10:42. > :10:48.hurdles and was quite good at that, too. What is the secret to winning

:10:49. > :10:53.the hurdles? It is all about your stride pattern. Every hurdle, you

:10:54. > :10:58.want to attack it. If you have one blip on one hurdle, it can affect

:10:59. > :11:05.the whole race. It is about having a really smooth race. You have got

:11:06. > :11:11.your first British title. How did it feel to be the favourite? I have

:11:12. > :11:18.never had that kind of expectation. I wanted to win it. I knew if I ran

:11:19. > :11:21.a good race I should run it. Especially in the hurdle events

:11:22. > :11:24.things have happened. I just wanted to go out and do my best

:11:25. > :11:33.performance. London was overwhelming. Rafa van step away and

:11:34. > :11:38.look at it from a distance, I am at the Olympics here, an incredible

:11:39. > :11:42.opportunity, I just saw it as a champ in chips where I did not

:11:43. > :11:47.perform very well. I want to just enjoy the experience of Glasgow. I

:11:48. > :11:51.hope it will be a nice support when a comeback, with the home crowd

:11:52. > :11:56.there to cheer on. You feel a bit special because you are a home

:11:57. > :12:03.athlete. I hope I will be a bit more relaxed knowing I have good support

:12:04. > :12:07.behind me. When I went to my first senior Championship 's, I was a

:12:08. > :12:11.youngster and it was my first experience, the world champ in

:12:12. > :12:13.chips. Then I went to Delhi. I wasn't making up numbers, I was a

:12:14. > :12:29.contender. COMMENTATOR: Hayley Child is closing

:12:30. > :12:39.down. -- Eilidh Child It was such an amazing feeling. That was the start

:12:40. > :12:44.of things after that for me. Imagine doing the lap of honour in Glasgow.

:12:45. > :12:48.Have you allowed yourself to think? It would be the best moment of my

:12:49. > :12:53.life to be able to do that. Rather than think about that, I just try to

:12:54. > :12:57.focus on what I need to do to hopefully get to that stage. I've

:12:58. > :13:03.plan my training and things like that and if it happens, it happens.

:13:04. > :13:12.Silver medallist in Delhi for years ago. Fantastic run on this track in

:13:13. > :13:17.the Diamond league a few weeks ago and when we spoke to her in Rome at

:13:18. > :13:22.the Diamond league, we said to her, your faces everywhere, are you

:13:23. > :13:27.enjoying it? She said, yes, I am. She has the right mindset. She has,

:13:28. > :13:31.and there is a point in an athlete's career when they start to

:13:32. > :13:39.recognise and accept that they are as good as they are, and I think

:13:40. > :13:42.Eilidh Child has talked about 2012 in overall by the expectation and

:13:43. > :13:47.the atmosphere, but now she is ready, she has trained hard, she has

:13:48. > :13:52.made those changes, and she knows what everyone in the stadium,

:13:53. > :13:56.regardless of being Scottish or not, they want her to do well. She's

:13:57. > :14:01.prepared for that mentally, you can see that, here it in interviews. All

:14:02. > :14:07.she has to do is execute her race like she did in the Glasgow Diamond

:14:08. > :14:17.league, and she will be fine. Angela Ballard won the T 45 1500m earlier

:14:18. > :14:21.is receiving her medal. Smith is undoubtedly the favourite in the

:14:22. > :14:26.field. She did, of course, come up against new problems last year in

:14:27. > :14:29.the World Championships, so her technique sometimes borderline, and

:14:30. > :14:33.she was disqualified last year. Poppies nobody wants that to happen

:14:34. > :14:37.this evening but it will be an interesting head-to-head. --

:14:38. > :14:44.Peasley, nobody wants that to happen. She will be bitter from that

:14:45. > :14:48.and this is a happen. She will be bitter from that

:14:49. > :15:00.and this Championship that Jamaicans take very personally and seriously.

:15:01. > :15:05.She is in name six. -- Lane 6. She will bring her leg around the

:15:06. > :15:08.hurdle. Rounding the hurdle as opposed to over the hurdle.

:15:09. > :15:14.Sometimes that is done inadvertently. I do not think anyone

:15:15. > :15:18.should try to do it to gain any advantage, especially at that point

:15:19. > :15:21.in the race, so it was a mistake and I'm sure she was absolutely

:15:22. > :15:26.devastated by it. I am sure she's thinking about it coming into these

:15:27. > :15:31.championships. Let's head outside because within that T54 1500m

:15:32. > :15:38.ceremony, Jade Jones of England, the one with the bronze. How lovely,

:15:39. > :15:41.what a great moment for her coach, Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, to be

:15:42. > :15:49.the one to put the medal round her neck. We were sitting here with

:15:50. > :15:53.Tanni. She was shaking. I do not know how she managed to commentate.

:15:54. > :15:58.So it is a beautiful moment when things come together like that, and

:15:59. > :16:03.well done to Jade Jones. 18 years old. I think we will hear and see of

:16:04. > :16:09.a lot more from her in the future. Let's get out on the track. The

:16:10. > :16:20.first of two 400m hurdles finals, the men first.

:16:21. > :16:29.champion. Dai Greene failed to go through. Two English athlete but the

:16:30. > :16:35.Jamaican is the favourite, along with South African Cornel

:16:36. > :16:58.Fredericks. Catch -- English athlete. The Kenyan champion, any

:16:59. > :17:06.face. The first of the contenders is white. -- Boniface Mucheru. Jeffery

:17:07. > :17:15.Gibson in lane five. The record-holder. We saw Cornel

:17:16. > :17:20.Fredericks strapped in the semifinal but he said that was just a

:17:21. > :17:31.precaution. And if he is in his best form, he might be the man to beat.

:17:32. > :17:37.The World Champion is in lane three. He won the world title by fractions.

:17:38. > :17:50.Not quite enough form this year but he showed in the semifinal that he

:17:51. > :17:55.was getting pretty good. The African champion a couple of years ago,

:17:56. > :17:59.Christian Cuevas-Morton, and an American citizen who chose to

:18:00. > :18:10.compete for Nigeria. Nile Flannery has been his own fiercest critic.

:18:11. > :18:16.The Jamaican champion rocks Roy Cato was disqualified in the semifinal

:18:17. > :18:22.and that allowed Flannery back in. Two English athletes in this final.

:18:23. > :18:32.Flannery, Christian Cuevas-Morton, Cornel Fredericks, Jeffery Gibson,

:18:33. > :18:40.Annsert Whyte, Richard Yates and the Kenyans, Boniface Mucheru. We as for

:18:41. > :18:50.silence at Hampden Park -- we are asking for silence.

:18:51. > :18:58.Cornel Fredericks rises in the green vest of South Africa. He may be the

:18:59. > :19:03.man to catch, he has been so strong this season. It is even between

:19:04. > :19:09.Jehue Gordon and Cornel Fredericks who is making his move alongside

:19:10. > :19:15.Jeffery Gibson. Boniface Mucheru on the outside. Flannery on the inside.

:19:16. > :19:18.Cornel Fredericks is flying. The World Champion is hunting him down

:19:19. > :19:25.and watching him all the time. Cornel Fredericks is looking

:19:26. > :19:31.powerful. Annsert Whyte in yellow. But he is down and he has gone.

:19:32. > :19:35.Cornel Fredericks is clear. Jehue Gordon finished strong in Moscow and

:19:36. > :19:41.he is doing it again. Connor Fredericks is holding gone. Jeffery

:19:42. > :19:45.Gibson does not get fair, Jehue Gordon lunging at the line for the

:19:46. > :19:52.silver medal but Cornel Fredericks, the champion, the Commonwealth

:19:53. > :19:55.champion... This man is the winner. He takes the applause at Hampden

:19:56. > :20:04.Park because he went out quickly and he held on. He is the champion.

:20:05. > :20:10.He is a highly skilled hurdler. You expect him to have very good

:20:11. > :20:15.technique. When he was young, he was African Junior champion. He is a

:20:16. > :20:20.very skilful runner indeed. We were very running -- we were very worried

:20:21. > :20:26.about him with that strapping on his thigh but he came through. Annsert

:20:27. > :20:32.Whyte was pushing for a position as well but down he went. And he hit

:20:33. > :20:37.the barriers. You have to do it in a skilful way, you cannot accelerate

:20:38. > :20:42.like that and you pay the penalty when you are tired. Remember when we

:20:43. > :20:47.spoke about this young man, how disappointed he was? And he ended up

:20:48. > :20:51.coming in fourth place in a tight inside lane. A good, strong

:20:52. > :20:58.performance. Returning back to form. We were looking so much at Cornel

:20:59. > :21:03.Fredericks and Jehue Gordon and Annsert Whyte, look at Flannery in

:21:04. > :21:10.lane one. Many titles have been won in this

:21:11. > :21:18.lane. In 1972, and 48 seconds in the inside lane. Moses won from the

:21:19. > :21:23.inside lane. A lot of skilful athletes have pulled off a great

:21:24. > :21:27.performance from that position. What is good about Flannery, he kept his

:21:28. > :21:31.head. He has been working hard, he has been disappointed in his

:21:32. > :21:37.performances coming into this championship. But when he gets

:21:38. > :21:41.focused, he can get the performance when it matters. The rest of the

:21:42. > :21:48.field is not going away so he starts to get -- so he starts to dig in and

:21:49. > :21:51.he works hard and he gets something out of this race. What a

:21:52. > :21:54.performance! In fourth place in the Commonwealth Games, a great

:21:55. > :22:02.performance for him. -- a fourth place. Annsert Whyte, he hit the

:22:03. > :22:11.barrier with his leaders like because he is too close. -- with his

:22:12. > :22:18.lead leg. That is what happens. He is too close, problems. Cornel

:22:19. > :22:22.Fredericks, what a great victory. Very pleased for him because he has

:22:23. > :22:29.been knocking on the door of success for a long time. Look at Flannery.

:22:30. > :22:34.Glancing over to see where he is. Counting everybody as he goes past.

:22:35. > :22:36.A great return to form and I hope he is very pleased with that. He is

:22:37. > :22:43.with Phil. How please are you with that

:22:44. > :22:49.performance considering what happened yesterday and you were not

:22:50. > :22:55.in the final? -- pleased. It was strange yesterday. I was annoyed and

:22:56. > :23:02.I still am, I did not execute it right. I pushed too hard yesterday.

:23:03. > :23:09.I am happy with my race. Those three guys are world-class. I am happy to

:23:10. > :23:14.come fourth, strange as it sounds. I have come fourth in every

:23:15. > :23:18.championships and this is my first senior championships. If somebody

:23:19. > :23:21.had told me I was before then the Commonwealth Games, they would have

:23:22. > :23:25.bitten off their hand. It will stand you in great stead as you move

:23:26. > :23:32.forward. Yesterday, down in the dumps. The

:23:33. > :23:36.appeal goes on, rocks Roy Cato trailed

:23:37. > :23:40.appeal goes on, rocks Roy Cato I prepared as if I was in the final

:23:41. > :23:47.straightaway. -- Roxroy Cato. I got the news at four o'clock yesterday.

:23:48. > :23:53.Really good race today. The time is all right. But now I am happy that

:23:54. > :23:59.Really good race today. The time is came back from yesterday. I am happy

:24:00. > :24:00.before. All the best. The sun is coming out at Hampden

:24:01. > :24:14.Park. These are the results. South Africa have it again. Jeffery

:24:15. > :24:18.Gibson, a national record for the Bahamas and the first medal at the

:24:19. > :24:30.poetics in the Commonwealth Games for the Bahamas. -- the first medal

:24:31. > :24:35.at the athletics. Eilidh Child could be about to meet

:24:36. > :24:39.her destiny. You have been in that position when the pressure is on,

:24:40. > :24:45.can you enjoy it? Not at this stage, you are focusing. It is not about

:24:46. > :24:54.anyone else, you are focusing on doing well. We can hand you over to

:24:55. > :25:00.Steve Cram. What a moment for Eilidh Child. The

:25:01. > :25:06.perfect girl. The crowd already getting excited. She is about to be

:25:07. > :25:12.introduced. Her dad and her sister was sitting behind us a little while

:25:13. > :25:18.ago. I am sure they are as nervous. Reports are that she is nervous and

:25:19. > :25:28.excited. Probably a mixture of both. It is going to be tough. The

:25:29. > :25:34.Jamaicans have been disqualified and disqualified and did not finish. The

:28:19. > :28:34.hurdles final. Hampden Park goes silent for their girl.

:28:35. > :28:45.I am surprised the starter did not make that decision. It was Chanise

:28:46. > :28:49.Chase. The crowd were unsettled. She put her hand up and she has every

:28:50. > :28:56.right. That is exactly what she should have done. She should signal

:28:57. > :28:58.that she is not settled. That disturbance came from the discus

:30:05. > :30:31.Spencer leading it. Spencer of Jamaica takes the gold

:30:32. > :30:42.medal. Eilidh Child of Scotland takes the silver. We dared to hope

:30:43. > :30:48.that maybe Eilidh could overturn the way the result has always gone, but

:30:49. > :30:54.Spencer is a great athlete. She is the world number one. And for Eilidh

:30:55. > :30:58.Child to have even come close to winning back today, she would have

:30:59. > :31:04.had to rent a close personal best. She acquitted herself well under the

:31:05. > :31:09.pressure. She did go out hard, she took it down hard and she got on

:31:10. > :31:12.terms with Spencer and now she can enjoy... Yes, it is her second

:31:13. > :31:19.silver medal at the Commonwealth Games, but the last one was a long

:31:20. > :31:24.way from home, in Delhi. This one is special. I'm sure it will mean a lot

:31:25. > :31:32.to her. But you had to give it to Spencer. She was a great athlete,

:31:33. > :31:41.but well done Eilidh Child. A huge amount of pressure on Eilidh's

:31:42. > :31:47.shoulders. When there is a huge expectation and virtually everybody

:31:48. > :31:52.in this stadium was hoping and praying that Eilidh could do

:31:53. > :31:56.something here... So that silver medal will be very precious indeed.

:31:57. > :32:05.She is very emotional. She is trying to spot people in the crowd. So she

:32:06. > :32:12.can go on a lap of honour. Very pleasing to see first. That was a

:32:13. > :32:25.huge relief. High-fives all round. Hugs all round. It has been a big

:32:26. > :32:29.year that Eilidh. They are all wearing the same colour. She was

:32:30. > :32:34.proposed to last year but engaged to Brian, and it has been a tough year.

:32:35. > :32:39.When you have all of this pressure to deal with, as the hometown girl,

:32:40. > :32:43.as the favourite, to just go out, and you still have to execute it.

:32:44. > :32:47.You can wish and hope that the one thing you cannot do is mess it up,

:32:48. > :32:54.and she absolutely did not do that. You are so right, Steve. We know

:32:55. > :32:58.what he's capable of running, she has demonstrated it this year. A

:32:59. > :33:03.couple of weeks ago she won the Diamond league, but you still have

:33:04. > :33:08.to clear ten barriers, in tricky conditions, testing conditions, and

:33:09. > :33:13.she did remarkably well. There is Spencer of course, now at last be

:33:14. > :33:17.champion. She has been knocking on the door championships for a long

:33:18. > :33:22.time, Spencer, and she has gone under the magical 53 seconds. For

:33:23. > :33:30.her it is important that she takes the gold medal at long last. There

:33:31. > :33:34.is Eilidh enjoying the crowds. That is her dad. Her dad and her sister,

:33:35. > :33:38.who were sitting with us to begin with and they moved over to be with

:33:39. > :33:44.their friends. Look how much that has meant to him. How proud he must

:33:45. > :33:50.be his daughter. And all of Hampden Park starts to celebrate, and the

:33:51. > :33:57.familiar song is being played down there. We have had this a few times.

:33:58. > :34:01.She has walked a few miles herself. She has run a few miles. What an

:34:02. > :34:24.atmosphere. # I would walk 500 miles...

:34:25. > :34:30.COMMENTATOR: She is taking the emotion of the crowd, and I bet

:34:31. > :34:31.COMMENTATOR: She is taking the had some endless sleepless nights.

:34:32. > :34:49.Tonight I think she will sleep. STUDIO: The atmosphere inside

:34:50. > :34:55.stadium is just rocking. I hope that is coming through to you at home.

:34:56. > :34:58.Denise is jigging, Paul is dancing, even Michael is bopping along to his

:34:59. > :35:10.favourite second anthem. Denise. Overwhelming. I remember London like

:35:11. > :35:16.it was yesterday but the emotions here tonight are just sky-high.

:35:17. > :35:19.Fantastic support in the stadium. Like the commentator said, to come

:35:20. > :35:24.away with the silver medal, you can hope for the gold but it is a

:35:25. > :35:30.realistic result here, but over ten barriers, anything can happen. She

:35:31. > :35:35.could have hit it, follow over, but she came through. I just imagine the

:35:36. > :35:42.weight coming off her shoulders. That is what it is about. There are

:35:43. > :35:49.little kids tonight, Paula, and they are seeing a hero, and they will

:35:50. > :35:53.want to go away and replicated. And the feeling an atmosphere as well.

:35:54. > :35:58.That little girl will go away and think, I was in Hampden Park that

:35:59. > :36:02.night, I felt that. It is something I want to do. Hopefully she will go

:36:03. > :36:36.can join a club and try it out. Well, Eilidh touching just about

:36:37. > :36:42.every palm as she goes around there. Brilliant scenes there. They have

:36:43. > :36:54.had a lot to cheer about this week, the Nigerian Athletics Federation.

:36:55. > :36:59.The song is all over. Everybody's listening to it. It is a fantastic

:37:00. > :37:03.moment at this stadium. Well done for Eilidh. Sometimes

:37:04. > :37:12.moment at this stadium. Well done silver, sometimes you win silver and

:37:13. > :37:14.moment at this stadium. Well done she absolutely won silver. Steep set

:37:15. > :37:18.moment at this stadium. Well done it up with a statistic, didn't he?

:37:19. > :37:21.Nine times they have raced, nine times Spencer has beaten her.

:37:22. > :37:23.Nine times they have raced, nine are dealing with somebody who will

:37:24. > :37:36.be one of the favourites heading into Rio, and she is a supreme

:37:37. > :37:40.athlete. Eilidh has stepped up again. She has, and making the most

:37:41. > :37:44.of the readiness, being ready to do your best when it really matters, to

:37:45. > :37:47.cope with the pressure, to understand the emotions and what you

:37:48. > :37:53.have to do in your training to get to this point. It just reminds me of

:37:54. > :37:59.1996 when Michael Johnson won the 400m and Roger Black had to rent the

:38:00. > :38:03.silver because there was no way it was going to happen that he was

:38:04. > :38:12.going to beat you that night, and being proud of that silver medal.

:38:13. > :38:18.You have to just go out there and bring your race and Eilidh knew

:38:19. > :38:21.that. As Steve said earlier, it is about not making mistakes,

:38:22. > :38:29.especially in this event. You go out there and when your best race.

:38:30. > :38:34.Anything can happen. We have seen it with Christine Ohuruogu. You just

:38:35. > :38:39.have to go out there and give it your best shot and let the chips

:38:40. > :38:45.fall where they may, and they felt right for Eilidh tonight. We

:38:46. > :38:49.suspected, we hoped tonight might be the night. The really brilliant

:38:50. > :38:56.night of athletics here. Thrilling Thursday, let's call it. Like Super

:38:57. > :39:01.Saturday. Right now we have an Englishman.

:39:02. > :39:08.David Weir taking gold a little earlier this evening. He is about to

:39:09. > :39:15.be presented with his medal, so I will hand you over to Andrew Cotter.

:39:16. > :39:27.COMMENTATOR: Following that atmosphere, and everyone enjoying

:39:28. > :39:34.that music. Dupont from Canada gets the bronze medal in the men's T54

:39:35. > :39:44.1500m, which was a race dominated by one man, really. A wonderful night

:39:45. > :39:49.of finals here, and the weather is even behaving now. The setting is as

:39:50. > :40:01.fine as you could hope for in the world sport.

:40:02. > :40:22.The win the silver, representing Australia, Kurt Fearnley. As proud

:40:23. > :40:28.and happy at he could beat to take the silver. That Hampden was making

:40:29. > :40:33.a huge moment ago a few members away for the silver medal for Eilidh

:40:34. > :40:38.Child. Now they will proclaim the gold medal for one of the greatest

:40:39. > :40:44.figures in this sport. Gold medallist at the Commonwealth

:40:45. > :40:57.Games, representing England, David Weir. All his great achievements,

:40:58. > :41:05.six Paralympic medals, six Olympic gold medals, six times winner of the

:41:06. > :41:09.London Marathon, but this seems to mean as much to him as any of the

:41:10. > :41:22.others. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

:41:23. > :41:36.Ladies and gentlemen, the national anthem of England.

:41:37. > :42:52.from the Proclaimers to Jerusalem. And David Weir is champion of the

:42:53. > :42:54.Commonwealth for the first time. What a moment the him inside

:42:55. > :43:06.Hampden. STUDIO: Congratulations to David

:43:07. > :43:09.Weir, the full set fame. He wobbled a bit after London. He was

:43:10. > :43:11.Weir, the full set fame. He wobbled whether he had the motivation and

:43:12. > :43:16.desire to go on. We are all whether he had the motivation and

:43:17. > :43:26.that what he did tonight will mean he will go on to Rio. He is getting

:43:27. > :43:33.quicker. And finding his motivation again. It is awesome. Such an

:43:34. > :43:40.inspiration to so many. Brilliant. Let's head over to the wrapping up

:43:41. > :43:44.of the long jump. COMMENTATOR: Final stages for the long jump final and

:43:45. > :43:54.it is Jazmin Sawyers currently in the bronze medal position.

:43:55. > :44:08.That is big! Jazmin Sawyers! She may have just jumped a jump of her life.

:44:09. > :44:15.Perfect on the board, four centimetres to spare. Jazmin

:44:16. > :44:24.Sawyers, wow! That is the kind of leap that you only dream of. 6.50!

:44:25. > :44:33.Just two centimetres short of the golds. Well done Jazmin. A

:44:34. > :44:36.Just two centimetres short of the silver medal. So the celebrations go

:44:37. > :44:46.across to Ese Brume of Nigeria. silver medal. So the celebrations go

:44:47. > :44:51.gold, I would have thought it might be blessing Okagbare. She is

:44:52. > :44:56.concentrating on the sprint so it is her young team-mate, Brume at 21

:44:57. > :45:04.years of age. She takes the gold. Look at that. Two centimetres off a

:45:05. > :45:08.seasoned's best -- two centimetres and a seasoned's best the Jazmin

:45:09. > :45:17.Sawyers. Canada taking the bronze medal. STUDIO: Well done. Both the

:45:18. > :45:23.English girls there getting a seasoned's best, but Jazmin with a

:45:24. > :45:26.terrific silver medal there as well. Time for a bit more of the Fast

:45:27. > :45:46.Show. Jodie Williams take second.

:45:47. > :45:53.The Jamaican chasing her down. Looking really good. Under pressure.

:45:54. > :45:57.Calvert wins it. A good run from Bianca Williams.

:45:58. > :45:59.Flying at the moment. Very impressive run.

:46:00. > :46:12.A great performance. What a line-up for the final of the

:46:13. > :46:21.women's 200 m. That is Bianca Williams, one of three English

:46:22. > :46:35.athletes in this final. But the one they are trying to catch its

:46:36. > :46:41.blessing could Bari. Jody Williams leading the English challenge.

:46:42. > :46:49.Dash-macro one. That is Jody Williams. -- Okagbare. Things

:46:50. > :46:58.looking good for England at the moment. Who can catch Blessing

:46:59. > :47:12.Okagbare as she looks to complete the sprint double? Bianca Williams

:47:13. > :47:26.in lane three. Calvert of Jamaica in lane four. Ese Brume -- who can stop

:47:27. > :47:44.this run to Gold? Away they go first time and

:47:45. > :47:49.already, Blessing Okagbare on Samantha Henry Robinson outside.

:47:50. > :47:55.Freezing round the bend. Jodie Williams well-placed with Calvert

:47:56. > :48:02.inside her. Jodie Williams strides to get there. Jody Williams looking

:48:03. > :48:08.for silver. Blessing Okagbare gets Gold. Three English girls in the

:48:09. > :48:14.hunt for silver and bronze. Macro -- one wins but what a race behind her

:48:15. > :48:20.from Jody Williams, Bianca Williams. It may well be second, third and

:48:21. > :48:25.fourth for England. Jodie Williams gets silver behind Blessing

:48:26. > :48:32.Okagbare. And Bianca Williams gets the bronze medal. What incredible

:48:33. > :48:39.sprinting by the English women to take second, third and fourth. All

:48:40. > :48:41.getting personal bests and putting three Jamaican sprinters behind

:48:42. > :48:50.them, phenomenal. And looking at the times, only Cathy Cook now has run

:48:51. > :48:54.faster than Jodie Williams. And great for Bianca Williams. Blessing

:48:55. > :49:02.Okagbare, her moment, she has completed the double. Untouchable in

:49:03. > :49:07.the 100m and in the 200. Nigeria have Gold again. But what a race

:49:08. > :49:14.from some of the future for British sprinting. Strong sprinting by the

:49:15. > :49:19.English women. Jody Williams had good control of the bend. There was

:49:20. > :49:24.pressure left and right but she never gave up. She worked hard.

:49:25. > :49:31.There she is with Bianca. The two medallists. And that is the

:49:32. > :49:37.champion. Not related, we stress that again. They are both 20. Time

:49:38. > :49:48.for an autograph, many of those in the future. 22.50, only Cathy Cook

:49:49. > :49:55.has run faster over 200 m. Bianca Williams not far behind. A possible

:49:56. > :50:01.best for the fourth position as well. -- personal best. Blessing

:50:02. > :50:06.Okagbare wins the Gold but what a race. There was a moment down the

:50:07. > :50:10.home straight you thought Blessing Okagbare might be caught. Just a

:50:11. > :50:17.moment! A fleeting moment! But the reality is that Blessing Okagbare

:50:18. > :50:22.has got that incredible speed. Under 11 seconds on numerous occasions.

:50:23. > :50:27.All the women would know that. Look at Bianca Williams. She is in lane

:50:28. > :50:31.three and she has the two Jamaican athletes inside and outside but she

:50:32. > :50:37.never gives up. She keeps working hard. Jody is a beta for and

:50:38. > :50:49.mechanical runner, blue and all the way. -- dutiful. Bianca did well to

:50:50. > :50:54.do that. And I feel sorry for the runner in lane eight. She had to

:50:55. > :51:02.focus and keep pumping the arms to see where she would end up. A great

:51:03. > :51:08.performance from her. These women will be pleased and excited about

:51:09. > :51:15.their really -- Relay running prospects. That will be great with

:51:16. > :51:20.England, Nigeria and Jamaica. A personal best for the fourth

:51:21. > :51:31.position at 29 years old. Michael Johnson, you can ask for no more.

:51:32. > :51:38.We can see Jodie Williams here, she is focused and giving it everything

:51:39. > :51:42.she has got. It looked for a moment that maybe she had an opportunity to

:51:43. > :51:53.defeat Blessing Okagbare for the Gold. Coming round the bend. She got

:51:54. > :51:58.a great start. Blessing Okagbare did not run as far around the bend and

:51:59. > :52:03.she did before. -- as she did. This is a great performance. The anchor

:52:04. > :52:09.Williams. She had a really nice start, I love her technique. --

:52:10. > :52:16.Bianca Williams. She is a great athlete. Nice transition between the

:52:17. > :52:20.two Jamaicans. This is competing. She has to get people at this point.

:52:21. > :52:27.She has the speed and endurance to do that. That is about training and

:52:28. > :52:34.she has had great training. Just leaning at the end to get that

:52:35. > :52:39.medal. Fantastic performance, certainly for Bianca Williams and

:52:40. > :52:43.Jody Williams, now having a real opportunity to improve upon that as

:52:44. > :52:51.they go into the future. They cannot believe it themselves. Amazing. I

:52:52. > :52:58.think they surprised themselves. The future is bright for English

:52:59. > :53:05.printing, British printing, women's sprinting, and it has not been for

:53:06. > :53:13.some time. A double Gold in a Glasgow night for Blessing Okagbare.

:53:14. > :53:20.And a thrilling Thursday, that is what it is called. 20 minutes of

:53:21. > :53:26.athletics we have experienced in Hampden Park and for British

:53:27. > :53:32.printing, this is great news. -- is hunting. We have talked about the

:53:33. > :53:38.rise of these women. -- Tish sprinting. For these women to get on

:53:39. > :53:42.the podium. It is incredible and my heart rate

:53:43. > :53:49.is just coming down to normality. I have been watching Jody, I know her

:53:50. > :53:57.family, she had a rough time. To pick herself back up, she has made

:53:58. > :54:02.the move to train with Christine. That transition has helped her

:54:03. > :54:09.confidence. It has increased her motivation. She has just been

:54:10. > :54:15.rewarded with one of the most impressive runs I have seen for a

:54:16. > :54:21.young athlete. And Bianca, as Michael said, flawless technician.

:54:22. > :54:30.But great majority to not panic when she was so far down the field. Just

:54:31. > :54:36.relax and to let her actions do the work, fantastic. They had to race.

:54:37. > :54:43.With 50 to go, this was not a done deal. They had to pick of those

:54:44. > :54:51.athletes. It was not a done deal by any stretch. With even 50 metres to

:54:52. > :54:56.go. What kind of personal best? A 10th of a second by Jodie, which is

:54:57. > :55:03.great. Two tenths of a second by Bianca Williams is massive. A big

:55:04. > :55:07.personal best. That speaks to what type of future she has. And with the

:55:08. > :55:16.right training and guidance, which is important, talking about the Tish

:55:17. > :55:19.sprinters, what do you do from here? -- British. Getting a medal does not

:55:20. > :55:23.put you in the World Championship final. You have to do

:55:24. > :55:28.put you in the World Championship you have to learn from this. Not

:55:29. > :55:30.just sit back. You are completely right. The times those girls

:55:31. > :55:38.just sit back. You are completely produced can get you into finals if

:55:39. > :55:42.confidence and you know it is in your arm. That is exciting for me.

:55:43. > :55:48.They have to be managed well, stay healthy. -- your armoury. To make

:55:49. > :55:52.finals in Olympics and healthy. -- your armoury. To make

:55:53. > :55:59.performance they need. You are right, Denise. Those times can get

:56:00. > :56:02.them into World Championship finals. You have to do this again. Now you

:56:03. > :56:04.have done it, you have to do it again. That speaks again to

:56:05. > :56:14.management, to keeping an athlete again. That speaks again to

:56:15. > :56:19.not sit back. That is her little sister, Hannah. She is also

:56:20. > :56:20.not sit back. That is her little sprinter in the making. That is her

:56:21. > :56:25.mum who has had a personal battle. sprinter in the making. That is her

:56:26. > :56:31.This is such a big thing for a child prodigy to come through and to make

:56:32. > :56:35.it on a very respectable circuit. Commonwealth silver-medallist. She

:56:36. > :56:39.took her personal Commonwealth silver-medallist. She

:56:40. > :56:44.track a couple of weeks ago and finished fourth in a very strong

:56:45. > :56:50.field. And tonight, she has taken it down again. She can get quicker than

:56:51. > :56:57.this. Absolutely, she can get faster. No doubt about that. I would

:56:58. > :57:02.say that contrasting the two, the most important thing for Jodie is

:57:03. > :57:07.getting a medal at a senior level. Even though it is a bronze medal for

:57:08. > :57:14.Bianca, the time for her is the nominal. That is the big thing for

:57:15. > :57:21.her. -- phenomenal. Both positive for those athletes. It is about the

:57:22. > :57:28.transition from junior to senior so often with a promising athlete and

:57:29. > :57:34.Jodie was that. 151 races she has won as a junior, it blows your mind,

:57:35. > :57:38.having that consistency. A lot of athletes get lost along the way

:57:39. > :57:41.because things happen, they mature, something does not click on a

:57:42. > :57:50.transitional period, and she has had injuries. This feels like the launch

:57:51. > :57:56.pad. Yes, and what has happened in the past in many cases, when the

:57:57. > :58:01.athlete is a child prodigy like that, there is so much attention and

:58:02. > :58:06.focus that that contributes to the difficulty in making the transition

:58:07. > :58:11.from junior to senior. Good and Jodie and her team for getting back

:58:12. > :58:17.on top. Coming back and positioning herself really well as she goes into

:58:18. > :58:20.the future. Next year is the World Championship and she still has

:58:21. > :58:23.European Championships and that will not be a walk in the park but she

:58:24. > :58:28.will go into that with tremendous confidence. And more talent from

:58:29. > :58:34.behind, from the Oregon World Junior Championships, Paula. Smith winning

:58:35. > :58:40.the Championships. A new generation coming through. Jodie will be an

:58:41. > :58:47.inspiration tonight to see where she can go. Well done to Bianca for her

:58:48. > :58:53.runs. And fourth placed, a bronze. And a silver medal. And this evening

:58:54. > :58:58.and Eilidh Child in the 400 metre hurdles. After about 20 minutes for

:58:59. > :59:04.her lap of honour, Phil Jones caught up with her.

:59:05. > :59:08.The most popular girl in the city tonight after that wonderful

:59:09. > :59:16.performance and silver medal, can you describe the emotions? The first

:59:17. > :59:19.emotion was relief. It has been a nervous couple of days and I wanted

:59:20. > :59:24.to execute the race well and I felt I did that. I felt I left everything

:59:25. > :59:30.on the track and I am delighted to come away with a medal, over the

:59:31. > :59:33.moon. In the mill .com and you have dealt with the pressure wonderfully

:59:34. > :59:41.well because there is a what -- in the build-up. I owe so much to so

:59:42. > :59:44.many people. My coach Malcolm and make training group have been

:59:45. > :59:51.supportive, my fiance and Ryan, my psychologist, my family. I have a

:59:52. > :59:55.great team, my agent Greg, they kept me grounded and focused and I am so

:59:56. > :00:02.glad I could give something back tonight. What goes to your mind on

:00:03. > :00:03.the lap of honour? The crowd so noisy and singing a proclaimers

:00:04. > :00:15.song. corner of the stadium had a member

:00:16. > :00:23.of my family and friends to share that with. It was so emotional. I am

:00:24. > :00:26.just so delighted. It was always going to be tough to give some

:00:27. > :00:31.perspective after the race but these memories, once-in-a-lifetime, you

:00:32. > :00:37.will take them through the rest of your life? I try not to think about

:00:38. > :00:41.that, I tried to see this as just another race and not get overwhelmed

:00:42. > :00:46.but after crossing the finishing line, I knew that I had one at all,

:00:47. > :00:48.there was a relief and I will enjoy the rest of tonight.

:00:49. > :01:40.Congratulations. BOTSWANAN NATIONAL ANTHEM PLAYS.

:01:41. > :01:44.Well, he won the silver medal, chasing David Rudisha in the London

:01:45. > :01:49.and X and had that national medal. This time it was not as quick as

:01:50. > :01:55.David Rudisha, this time he could not, not as quick as he wanted to be

:01:56. > :02:02.but this young man, Nigel Amos, he is the Commonwealth champion and his

:02:03. > :02:07.training partner also on the rostrum with the bronze medal. And a smiling

:02:08. > :02:10.David Rudisha. Very gracious in defeat. Do not worry about that, he

:02:11. > :02:42.will be back. Was -- holding those wooden trophies

:02:43. > :02:49.carved out of wood. There you go. I am sure that Nigel Amos will take

:02:50. > :02:57.that back with him. He got six and a half cows from London. He might get

:02:58. > :03:02.more! That got Thursday going. But 800 Metres. Since then, we had a

:03:03. > :03:08.lead child in the silver medal position. And only the fourth woman

:03:09. > :03:18.in the Commonwealth Games history to do the double after her wonderful

:03:19. > :03:23.Women's 400m Hurdles. Let us not forget about Blessing Okagbare, she

:03:24. > :03:27.is the double champion and that was a prep -- fantastic performance. She

:03:28. > :03:33.has yet to win gold at major championships but performance here

:03:34. > :03:41.does bode very well for her chances next year. Andy World Championships

:03:42. > :03:47.against the likes of Shelley and Fraser Price and those really big

:03:48. > :03:53.dogs. Those in this girls have got to chase those people. They must be

:03:54. > :03:57.looking at them as the targets. So does Blessing Okagbare, she still

:03:58. > :04:02.not running those times, she is there but she cannot eat them. And

:04:03. > :04:06.we did talk about what the British gross will take from this but

:04:07. > :04:11.Blessing Okagbare will also take a tremendous amount of confidence from

:04:12. > :04:17.this championship. She will be looking at these results, that is

:04:18. > :04:23.training partner. Literally on her tail, she is right there. Until she

:04:24. > :04:26.training partner. Literally on her gets into 10.7 territorial, she is

:04:27. > :04:34.still one tenth away from these girls. -- territory. She is enjoying

:04:35. > :04:39.the Scotland flag, that has been strategically placed rider. Jasmine

:04:40. > :04:43.Sawyer also had a good time this evening with that silver medal for

:04:44. > :04:49.England in the long jump. Phil caught up with her.

:04:50. > :04:59.England in the long jump. Phil caught up To take the medal, 20?

:05:00. > :05:04.Amazing, at the start of the year might goal was to make the team and

:05:05. > :05:09.then the final and then I said to the coach, we will see what happens,

:05:10. > :05:10.I cannot believe it. You had the bronze medal in your grasp and had

:05:11. > :05:16.an even bronze medal in your grasp and had

:05:17. > :05:20.silver. I am so pleased. It does bode well for the future and in the

:05:21. > :05:24.championship environment I was able to step up. Not the gold medal but I

:05:25. > :05:30.am over the moon! This does show you the medal -- the value of ringing

:05:31. > :05:35.the young athletes through? -- bringing. This is the biggest thing

:05:36. > :05:39.I have ever done, coming through the junior ranks was valuable but this

:05:40. > :05:48.was the experience I needed to take on the big girls. Look around! Enjoy

:05:49. > :05:52.the moment, you will have a great time on the podium as well. Silver

:05:53. > :06:01.medallist at the Commonwealth Games! Thank you so much! Where you are in

:06:02. > :06:05.any doubt what this means? That facial expression was just

:06:06. > :06:10.beautiful. Absolutely. This is what it is about, dreaming of something

:06:11. > :06:15.and working towards it and achieving it. And other people watching that

:06:16. > :06:21.and being inspired. If you want to take away one name from the

:06:22. > :06:25.athletics, it could be Blessing Okagbare, she has done the double in

:06:26. > :06:30.the sprint, only done three times before. Phil Jones

:06:31. > :06:30.the sprint, only done three times her. What a night

:06:31. > :06:33.the sprint, only done three times at Hampden Park. One of the stars of

:06:34. > :06:39.the show, Blessing Okagbare, but the at Hampden Park. One of the stars of

:06:40. > :06:41.second gold medal. You have the Scottish

:06:42. > :06:48.second gold medal. You have the that I won this, not really

:06:49. > :06:55.favourable weather and I had 201 day, this is competition and to get

:06:56. > :06:59.to do something like this, day, this is competition and to get

:07:00. > :07:05.something faster. From yesterday. I did not get the time

:07:06. > :07:09.something faster. From yesterday. I the win. People will look at that

:07:10. > :07:13.double championship! That is what I am saying! Even though I

:07:14. > :07:18.double championship! That is what I that time, winning is amazing. Two

:07:19. > :07:24.different gold medals in Glasgow is something to celebrate.

:07:25. > :07:32.Congratulations. Thank you! It is ladies night, but it is time for the

:07:33. > :07:35.men to turn it on, it is the Men's 200m final, only one Home Nations

:07:36. > :07:40.representative in the shape of Danny Talbot and the Olympic bronze and

:07:41. > :07:47.world silver medallist is there, Warren Weir.

:07:48. > :07:59.Danny Talbot coming through but Jason Livermore is coming through.

:08:00. > :08:13.It will be close. Photo-finish. It is Danny Talbot! Five together.

:08:14. > :08:23.Warren Weir, Akani Simbine. Mosito Lehata might well be second place.

:08:24. > :08:30.Look at Rasheed Dwyer. It will be all about Rasheed Dwyer.

:08:31. > :08:37.Of course, he is the athlete with the accolades but, Michael, you do

:08:38. > :08:44.not think he is unbeatable? Certainly not. And his team-mate,

:08:45. > :08:48.Rasheed Dwyer, they are lined up and they have a very good chance. I

:08:49. > :08:55.would expect them to see them coming together. Danny Talbot is not

:08:56. > :09:00.comfortable on the curve. He is out in laying the bridge six, he has all

:09:01. > :09:11.of those Jamaicans behind him. He will be coming hard down the home

:09:12. > :09:26.stretch. -- he will be. Phil has the dynamic jewel. -- duo. We have Jodie

:09:27. > :09:31.Williams and Bianca Williams. Everyone fancied you over 200

:09:32. > :09:35.metres) I'm just amazed at the moment, I am in a world of shock. I

:09:36. > :09:40.came in second and I had to perform and do it and I am just absolutely

:09:41. > :09:47.over the moon. You have enjoyed the lap of honour, top five all time,

:09:48. > :09:52.but Bianca, in your first major senior championship? Absolutely

:09:53. > :09:58.gobsmacked. It has been such a journey for me and my coach. Like I

:09:59. > :10:06.said before, I had to come here and to come into that 100 Metres and

:10:07. > :10:12.then the silver medal, Tuesday was inspiring. I am so proud of myself.

:10:13. > :10:17.What about those celebrations? Amazing, this crowd is absolutely

:10:18. > :10:25.incredible. Everybody wants to speak you. It is an amazing atmosphere.

:10:26. > :10:30.You have gone autograph mad! I got tired halfway through! I had to get

:10:31. > :10:37.a breath back! All the little kids coming up to us. It is unreal. The

:10:38. > :10:42.greatest thing about all of this for British women's spreading is you are

:10:43. > :10:47.both so new to this scene and delivering medals all of the --

:10:48. > :10:54.already. This is just the start? And we beat the Jamaicans! People are

:10:55. > :10:57.always very quick to write off the women sprinters and I think we have

:10:58. > :11:00.come out here and we have started to show that we can perform on this

:11:01. > :11:04.time of stage and in such a strong field. This is a sign of good things

:11:05. > :11:07.to come. Congratulations both of you. Happy birthday to my little

:11:08. > :12:48.brother! The Men's 400m Hurdles title. Dai

:12:49. > :12:52.Greene carry that title for three years -- for years. Cornel

:12:53. > :13:12.Fredericks. It is a very fine win. Great scenes for the Men's 400m

:13:13. > :13:15.Hurdles medal serve money and we're coming to the last final of the

:13:16. > :13:21.evening on the track, it is the Men's 200m final. You said before,

:13:22. > :13:27.you are sensing Jamaica, one, two, three? The only person who can

:13:28. > :13:32.possibly get in there is Daniel Bailey from Antigua. He does train

:13:33. > :13:37.with the Jamaicans from time to time that this man, Warren Weir, he has a

:13:38. > :13:42.target on his back and he is in great shape but the great thing

:13:43. > :13:48.about this is, you could pick any one of those guys. This will be

:13:49. > :13:54.fantastic to see, that finish. Some people will be really leaning, like

:13:55. > :13:59.Colin Jackson, trying to get there. Hopefully a great race in store. Who

:14:00. > :14:01.will execute this is the best? Who will come through with the goods?

:14:02. > :14:14.Who will hand over to Steve Cram. The full start list. Gavin Smellie

:14:15. > :14:23.from Canada. Daniel Bailey in laying number two and then those three

:14:24. > :14:35.Jamaicans. Danny Talbot, the only home country athlete. 38 and grew on

:14:36. > :14:43.the outside. He has been drawn in the same lane he was drawn in the

:14:44. > :14:46.semifinal. 20 years of age. He does look a little bit nervous. Does he

:14:47. > :14:52.have a chance of sticking into the top three? All eyes are on those

:14:53. > :15:04.three Jamaicans. This man, the record-holder, at 60 Metres. 10.13

:15:05. > :15:12.this year and 47.3 over 400. Danny Talbot from England! The European

:15:13. > :15:23.bronze medallist over 200 and is and then beside whom, the three

:15:24. > :15:30.Jamaicans. Jason Livermore. Rasheed Dwyer, the silver medallist at the

:15:31. > :15:35.student Games. This time, he is in the final and does he have a chance

:15:36. > :15:43.of upsetting the -- the Commonwealth Games favourite for he came here?

:15:44. > :15:49.Warren Weir. -- before he came here. They are looking chilly! It is not

:15:50. > :15:56.as cold as last night, I have to say. Daniel Bailey. Remember him,

:15:57. > :16:12.fourth place in Berlin back in 2000 and nine. And then Gavin Smellie

:16:13. > :16:17.from Canada. -- 2009. We have been used to a clean sweep from the

:16:18. > :16:24.Jamaicans. They have a chance in this 200-metre final. Warren Weir,

:16:25. > :16:29.has he got the sort of performance that we have seen from him earlier

:16:30. > :16:35.in the season? 19.8 two, the only man to have run under 20 seconds in

:16:36. > :16:41.this field. -- 19.8. The 200-metre final.

:16:42. > :16:54.Warren Weir gets a good start, he is not wire in lane three. Lane seven

:16:55. > :16:57.is going well, Jason Livermore going well, Warren Weir has an advantage.

:16:58. > :17:06.It is going to be rescued wire. well, Warren Weir has an advantage.

:17:07. > :17:11.he hang on? Rashid Dwyer gets it. -- it is going to be Rasheed Dwyer. I

:17:12. > :17:18.think they might have got a one, two, three. Very close on the line.

:17:19. > :17:19.think they might have got a one, 20.1. A race which might have been

:17:20. > :17:28.won and lost not on the bend which it often is but strengthening it out

:17:29. > :17:33.on the home straight. You keep expecting Warren Weir to go away. We

:17:34. > :17:44.have seen him moving on but this is not a Warren Weir of the past. It is

:17:45. > :17:52.a Jamaican one, two, three. Colin? Great sprinting in the women's race.

:17:53. > :17:56.It is chilly. That is a surprise. The semifinal, he probably looked

:17:57. > :18:03.It is chilly. That is a surprise. better than Warren Weir. This is

:18:04. > :18:08.Mosito better than Warren Weir. This is

:18:09. > :18:11.just missed out on a medal because Jason Livermore finished quickly

:18:12. > :18:16.come but Dwyer was Jason Livermore finished quickly

:18:17. > :18:22.We watched his semifinal. His transition from the turning was

:18:23. > :18:27.great. This is Danny, he finished in seventh place in 20.45. He will be

:18:28. > :18:32.frustrated because I know he wanted to compete well and I do believe he

:18:33. > :18:39.did. It would tough to sneak in amongst the top four. As I was

:18:40. > :18:46.saying about Dwyer, we are seeing Warren Weir now and that is the

:18:47. > :18:52.champion, Dwyer. He is doing the high five. The Jamaican men were

:18:53. > :18:56.looking for a clean sweep, the women did it in the 400m and at last they

:18:57. > :19:04.have done it in the 200 m. They will be relieved. Warren Weir, third from

:19:05. > :19:09.the right. He explodes. He ran out on a very strong turn and it is this

:19:10. > :19:13.transition we talk about. From the bend, he gets into the high knees

:19:14. > :19:19.mode. Warren Weir was on him at that stage but he came out of the bend

:19:20. > :19:26.well. He came into that stride he has and it was enough to put him

:19:27. > :19:30.ahead of Warren Weir. As he came to the shoulder of Warren Weir, there

:19:31. > :19:36.was no real response. That is where the difference is. They come off the

:19:37. > :19:42.bend, high knees. Here we go. Working hard. Down the home

:19:43. > :19:48.straight. Dwyer, his eyes fixed forward. Warren Weir was reaching

:19:49. > :19:51.for the line and that made a big difference. Jason Livermore sneaking

:19:52. > :19:56.through, brilliant stuff. I would be interested to hear what Michael has

:19:57. > :20:06.to say about that. Yes, Colin, I am now just looking at

:20:07. > :20:12.the Danny Talbot who is not great around the bend -- Danny Talbot. He

:20:13. > :20:18.is only one tenth of a second outside his personal best, that is

:20:19. > :20:24.not bad. It was a class of competition that was a bit much for

:20:25. > :20:29.him. He can clean up that technique down the home stretch, rocking back

:20:30. > :20:35.and fourth a bit. Warren Weir under a lot of pressure here. From Dwyer.

:20:36. > :20:42.A really good start. He tried to put Russia and Dwyer, but Dwyer knows he

:20:43. > :20:46.is better on the straight and he is not as comfortable on the curve. He

:20:47. > :20:49.let Warren Weir run around the bend and he came home and he used that

:20:50. > :20:56.speak to advance -- that speed advantage. Given Warren Weir run

:20:57. > :21:06.19.8 earlier in the year, I wonder if he had an injury that put his

:21:07. > :21:12.training back. But the Jamaicans taking the one, two, three, a lot of

:21:13. > :21:20.pedigree with the Jamaican sprinters. Outside of Warren Weir,

:21:21. > :21:33.this is the Jamaican beating. Jason Livermore and Dwyer. -- be team.

:21:34. > :21:36.Great athletes in the future. Dwyer is a good athlete, he is the

:21:37. > :21:42.Commonwealth champion. Warren Weir in second place. The silver. Not the

:21:43. > :21:48.athlete he was earlier in the season. Jason Livermore taking the

:21:49. > :22:01.bronze, ahead of Mosito Lehata, a new national record for him. Danny

:22:02. > :22:04.Talbot in seven. -- seven. Danny Talbot finished in seventh place,

:22:05. > :22:14.and he spoke to fill. -- Philip. Talented Jamaicans, what

:22:15. > :22:21.had you hoped to get out of that race? I go into every race wanting

:22:22. > :22:25.to win. I did not execute the race I should have. I do not know what went

:22:26. > :22:30.wrong, I gave it everything. I can go home happy, but disappointed

:22:31. > :22:35.because I know I could have done more. What have you learned from the

:22:36. > :22:41.two races in one session and progressing to a major final? I

:22:42. > :22:47.think I have learnt a lot in terms of how to handle myself against

:22:48. > :22:50.these big names. You come into a championship and you want to do your

:22:51. > :22:55.best. I was not far from my best but I need to move on from 20.4 and get

:22:56. > :23:01.into the low 20 seconds to be competitive. What will you need to

:23:02. > :23:09.do to get there? I do not know. I am not far away. I have run between

:23:10. > :23:19.20.36 and 20.475 or six times this year. So a consistent basis. -- 20.4

:23:20. > :23:21.seven five or six times. Hopefully I can carry on after that. Thank you,

:23:22. > :23:40.all the best. What a moment for Eilidh Child. A

:23:41. > :23:46.huge roar from this hand in crowd. -- Hampden Park crowd.

:23:47. > :23:57.Everybody enjoying the face of these Commonwealth Games. It is for her a

:23:58. > :24:01.new experience to have had that sort of pressure, and it was a difficult

:24:02. > :24:12.Russia. Everybody in athletics knew it was tough to beat Kaliese

:24:13. > :24:15.Spencer, she is a great champion. -- it was a difficult pressure. She

:24:16. > :24:20.missed out on the World Championships but she gets her

:24:21. > :24:23.moment, a Gold medal for the Jamaican. She has been disqualified

:24:24. > :24:29.in the past in major championships, but no problems today. Eilidh Child

:24:30. > :24:31.ran a good and strong race. It was always a mountain to finish ahead of

:24:32. > :24:46.Kaliese Spencer. It was a rainy, cloudy evening in

:24:47. > :25:58.Hampden Park. It certainly It

:25:59. > :26:16.a silver lining. And It

:26:17. > :26:19.Thursday. Some people seem to think It

:26:20. > :26:26.it is over, it is not, we have got the 100 metre hurdles. The champion

:26:27. > :26:31.Sally Pearson will take to the track. And Tiffany Porter, of

:26:32. > :26:34.England, the bronze-medallist from the World Championships last year.

:26:35. > :26:39.This is my favourite part, when the reggae music starts. The Jamaican

:26:40. > :26:45.athletes look like, really, when they play the music! In the same way

:26:46. > :26:50.the Scottish athletes do when they played the Proclaimers! Eilidh Child

:26:51. > :26:51.said she did not really like it until tonight because she is a

:26:52. > :26:57.Hearts fan and they until tonight because she is a

:26:58. > :27:01.that is an Edinburgh thing. I think she likes the songs

:27:02. > :27:02.that is an Edinburgh thing. I think enjoyed this evening. This has been

:27:03. > :27:07.a night she will never forget, enjoyed this evening. This has been

:27:08. > :27:12.Paula. That will stay with her forever. Thinking back to that will

:27:13. > :27:17.keep her going to the tough times every athlete will face. It is a

:27:18. > :27:22.special night and it is a privilege for me to be in the stadium tonight,

:27:23. > :27:27.experiencing how it came alive and how this crowd really enjoyed it.

:27:28. > :27:35.Kaliese Spencer was singing Bob Marley, she was delighted, as every

:27:36. > :27:43.Jamaican is! Not true, Denise! We are going to have to steal his iPod

:27:44. > :27:47.Jamaican is! Not true, Denise! We to see what Michael listens to in

:27:48. > :27:52.his hotel room in the early hours! It is a fabulous atmosphere. Two

:27:53. > :27:57.more nights of athletics here. It has been packed for every session.

:27:58. > :28:03.But tonight, the bar has been raised in terms of performances, reaction

:28:04. > :28:10.and appreciation for what the shoulders here have seen. The motion

:28:11. > :28:15.has been incredible. -- for what this audience. I have looked at the

:28:16. > :28:19.stadium and people have been on their feet. It was raining before,

:28:20. > :28:24.they were singing. And now this athlete is about the interviewed.

:28:25. > :28:34.Listen to the reaction. There is a presentation in the

:28:35. > :28:46.stadium and we are not linked up to the microphone. You cannot hear it.

:28:47. > :28:48.It is the presentation team and the audience

:28:49. > :28:56.It is the presentation team and the conversation she is having with BBC

:28:57. > :29:01.Scotland track-side. Colin said she would sleep well tonight, I do not

:29:02. > :29:06.know if she well, Paula? How is she going to get that out of her head?

:29:07. > :29:11.There is no way she is getting any sleep tonight. She will be buzzing

:29:12. > :29:13.by tomorrow morning. Maybe tomorrow night, she will sleep

:29:14. > :29:22.by tomorrow morning. Maybe tomorrow tonight, I do not think so. She

:29:23. > :29:26.still has business to do. But it has been a great night, fantastic

:29:27. > :29:35.evening. Michael predicted a one, two, three four men's 200 for

:29:36. > :29:41.Jamaica and they with Philip. Taking the Gold medal, your

:29:42. > :29:51.reaction? It is excellent. It is a wonderful feeling. We got a one,

:29:52. > :29:55.two, three, a wonderful feeling. You used to these medal situations and

:29:56. > :29:59.in Britain, you did it at the Olympics and to gain now. It is

:30:00. > :30:02.always good. It is always good in the sprint. We did it at the

:30:03. > :30:19.Commonwealth and we are pleased. trials in Jamaica, 1,2,3. The same

:30:20. > :30:33.thing. One last word for the champion, what

:30:34. > :30:44.does this mean to you? Were used to seeing Jamaicans dominate on the

:30:45. > :30:51.world stage? This is a stepping stone for me. But the greatest!

:30:52. > :30:55.Thank you for talking to us. Great scenes and a great victory for

:30:56. > :31:04.Jamaica. They love being dominant in the sprint and nobody did mention

:31:05. > :31:10.Usain Bolt. Let us go back to Gary at Pacific key. Are you enjoying

:31:11. > :31:17.this thrilling Thursday? We certainly are. Truly wonderful night

:31:18. > :31:19.of athletics we have been enjoying at Hampden Park and what a

:31:20. > :31:23.sensational atmosphere, you can see why they call it friendly, Glasgow

:31:24. > :31:29.is doing the Commonwealth bride. Let us take a breath. It is a given as

:31:30. > :31:34.we are going to be breathtaking spectacle that is the ten-metre

:31:35. > :31:38.diving. The women were plunging. The synchronised silver medallist Tonia

:31:39. > :31:49.Couch and Sarah Barrow but this time individually. It is the final round.

:31:50. > :32:06.Into the final round. Sarah Barrow has not quite worked out the way she

:32:07. > :32:12.would have liked tonight, she's not quite on top form. A flourish to

:32:13. > :32:23.finish would be good. That is really nice. Well done. She has not been on

:32:24. > :32:27.her greatest form during this final but she has finished, as requested

:32:28. > :32:36.by my commentator friend, with a flourish. 75 points. Beautiful dive.

:32:37. > :32:42.Well done, Sarah. I wish I had that kind of influence, just to make

:32:43. > :32:52.things happen. Good. 7.5 and eights. Very well done indeed.

:32:53. > :32:57.Victoria Vincent. Just 14 years old. The member that face. You will see a

:32:58. > :33:01.locked ward of it in the years to come. Superb final dive. She

:33:02. > :33:07.launches herself onto the diving board. Just a little bit too much

:33:08. > :33:12.forward memento but she did manage to counter that very cleverly.

:33:13. > :33:13.Reaching forward. She will not get eights because of that forward

:33:14. > :33:20.momentum. She will get sevens. Will eights because of that forward

:33:21. > :33:32.she break 300? Not quite. What a shame. Just shy. She is in fourth

:33:33. > :33:39.place. Two and a half somersaults. And what a beautiful entry into the

:33:40. > :33:47.water. That does put pressure on the remaining girls still to go in this.

:33:48. > :33:50.That is a great list that has been put together. She has stepped up

:33:51. > :33:54.from the put together. She has stepped up

:33:55. > :33:58.preliminaries this morning. She will be pleased with that, the strongest

:33:59. > :34:12.Australian performance by a long shot.

:34:13. > :34:18.be pleased with that, the strongest Australian And that is another

:34:19. > :34:25.corker. What a shame that she made that mistake on her inward three and

:34:26. > :34:31.a half. This is a beauty. This could be 80 points. The best of the bunch

:34:32. > :34:42.so far. With a twist. Two and a half somersaults. There we go. This is a

:34:43. > :34:46.real case of if only. She would be in the shake-up in the end but she

:34:47. > :34:53.will not be shy. Possibly fifth-place or may be better for the

:34:54. > :35:06.Malaysians. This must be on the money. She has thrown the gauntlet

:35:07. > :35:12.down. That is what Pandelela Rinong Pamg needs to match. To be the

:35:13. > :35:16.Commonwealth champion. Megan has been guaranteed the silver medal.

:35:17. > :35:31.Will that we good enough for gold? Or am I talking to sing? Will her

:35:32. > :35:36.team-mate surprises? Could be. It will be hard to overtake. Can she

:35:37. > :35:45.get perfection on the reverse two and a half somersaults. There you

:35:46. > :35:50.go. Superb final dive from Tonia Couch. That was missing this morning

:35:51. > :35:55.in the preliminaries but hear it is, in the final, just giving you a

:35:56. > :36:02.flavour of what this lady is capable of. Just some splash. I have seen

:36:03. > :36:06.her being scored nine and above on this. She will be outside the medals

:36:07. > :36:10.but she is the Commonwealth Games silver medallist alongside Sarah

:36:11. > :36:17.Barrow yesterday in the synchro event. We are diving at the sharp

:36:18. > :36:30.end of the ten Metres platform. The last divers will do the same, back

:36:31. > :36:38.to and as, one and a half twists. -- two and a half somersaults. We are

:36:39. > :36:44.looking at Roseline Filion, here on the platform. The bronze medallist.

:36:45. > :36:51.One and a half twists. That is good. Very good, in fact. Good enough for

:36:52. > :37:02.a medal. The bronze, I believe. So that is to medals for Canada. -- two

:37:03. > :37:11.medals. Only one person can spoil the Canadian party and she is coming

:37:12. > :37:19.next. 71.3 or better and she will pick up her second gold. I am not

:37:20. > :37:25.sure! That is a very good dive but the entry was throwing up some

:37:26. > :37:33.splash. She does need 7.5 to get the gold. Will she split the Canadians.

:37:34. > :37:42.Maybe that will not be good enough. That might only be silver. It could

:37:43. > :37:48.be Canadas first gold. -- Canada's. She did not quite yet those marks

:37:49. > :37:59.that she wanted. She fell shy just by over four points. 372.65. It is

:38:00. > :38:09.gold for Canada. Bronze for Canada. And, in between, Pandelela Rinong

:38:10. > :38:18.Pamg. She just could not quite get what she needed on that final dive.

:38:19. > :38:35.So, Canada can rejoice. We will hear the Canadian national anthem being

:38:36. > :38:38.played. Well, they are delighted. Meaghan Benfeito. And Roseline

:38:39. > :38:50.Filion. Earlier on, the one metre

:38:51. > :38:53.springboard champion, Jack Laugher, was hoping to double his tally with

:38:54. > :39:00.victory in the three Metres. He did not quite make it but he did win

:39:01. > :39:05.silver with the gold going to Ooi Tze Liang from Malaysia. Jack has

:39:06. > :39:09.another gold medal chance tomorrow in the three Metres springboard

:39:10. > :39:15.synchro with his partner, Chris Mears. Tom Daley starts his

:39:16. > :39:19.Commonwealth bid with James Denny, in action in the final from 7:15pm

:39:20. > :39:27.tomorrow evening and on Saturday night, he goes on the individual

:39:28. > :39:36.high dive, all live on the BBC. Back to Hampden Park. We have some races

:39:37. > :39:53.left. The heats for the Women's Hurdles. We have had a glorious

:39:54. > :39:57.night tonight at Hampden Park and be finish

:39:58. > :40:00.night tonight at Hampden Park and be Hurdles. Tiffany Porter in lane

:40:01. > :40:06.number two. The bronze medallist at the World Championships in Moscow,

:40:07. > :40:11.wonderful chance here in Glasgow. Kierre Beckles from Barbados, lane

:40:12. > :40:13.number three. There are three heats in this first round, they are

:40:14. > :40:47.effectively semifinals. Malaysia in lane under five.

:40:48. > :40:55.Edgecomb, going for the Bahamas. Danielle Williams. She had to settle

:40:56. > :41:02.behind Monique Morgan last year. And Michelle Jenneke. Sally Pearson is

:41:03. > :41:11.the big star. I think Australian television has something to do with

:41:12. > :41:17.the scheduling of this. So, there is Tiffany Porter. It might combine to

:41:18. > :41:21.a great tussle between her and Sally Pearson but with Hurdles, nothing is

:41:22. > :41:30.guaranteed. You must safely cross those barriers. Mercifully, still

:41:31. > :41:38.dry. And very still this evening. Nothing windy today. The first two

:41:39. > :41:46.athletes go through automatically. So, cleanly away. Porter is out.

:41:47. > :41:51.Danielle Williams in lane over seven. Williams trained to stay with

:41:52. > :42:01.her. Tiffany Porter is through safely. 12.84. Very clean running

:42:02. > :42:07.from Tiffany Porter. That was a very nice, confident piece of running.

:42:08. > :42:12.She reacted well and she drove off the first hurdle beautifully. Really

:42:13. > :42:22.lovely piece of work. Let's have a look. 12.84. And victory. She does

:42:23. > :42:26.work hard into that first hurdle, and then drives into every single

:42:27. > :42:30.one of those. She tries to keep her head still. You do not want to be

:42:31. > :42:38.wandering all over the place, that could play with your balance. She

:42:39. > :42:42.drove everything very well. And a very nice, competent piece of racing

:42:43. > :42:48.as well. I'm very pleased that Tiffany Porter has come through. You

:42:49. > :42:54.want to feel the track, you want to feel the atmosphere. You have heard

:42:55. > :42:57.all about it and she is now feeling it. Well done, Tiffany. She is

:42:58. > :43:05.talking to Lots of waiting around for you. They

:43:06. > :43:10.were talking about hearing in the village what the atmosphere is like

:43:11. > :43:13.here. And the anticipation is building but you must do the job? I

:43:14. > :43:19.have been so inspired watching everybody. Feeling that energy. I

:43:20. > :43:24.have been so anxious and I had the opportunity today. Nothing is

:43:25. > :43:30.guaranteed in the Hurdles? There is nothing automatic? It is different

:43:31. > :43:35.to the sprint, we cannot ease up. It is all about rhythm. It is but

:43:36. > :43:39.executing the race as well as you can. And you are clearly aware that

:43:40. > :43:43.this is one of the most mouthwatering prospects of the

:43:44. > :43:49.Games. You against Sally Pearson in the final? She is fierce, we will

:43:50. > :43:53.line up for the finals and hopefully put on a great show. Thank you so

:43:54. > :44:01.much. Some of you might be watching for the first time and hear that

:44:02. > :44:07.accident, but her mother is English. A very strong run and a good win.

:44:08. > :44:13.She goes safely through to the final. Danielle Williams as well.

:44:14. > :44:19.Kierre Beckles and Michelle Jenneke will have to wait. Clean running

:44:20. > :44:23.from Tiffany Porter, she made a step up last year at the World

:44:24. > :44:27.Championships. She will want to cement that performance here. Yes,

:44:28. > :44:32.she knows this is a very good opportunity. She knows that Sally

:44:33. > :44:36.Pearson is not quite in the form that she has shown with her

:44:37. > :44:41.dominance over the past few years but Tiffany Porter, the hurdling was

:44:42. > :44:49.tidy and she must keep going and race again. The confidence that was

:44:50. > :44:54.lacking is here. She has been purse -- inspired by performances this 70.

:44:55. > :45:08.Jasmine Sawyer picked up silver in the long jump. -- this evening. We

:45:09. > :45:13.had Doctor pulling up after her first attempt. This is a bonus

:45:14. > :45:18.medal? Do not take that away from her. She pulled it out of the bag on

:45:19. > :45:23.the night, she had her personal best. Only if you centimetres off

:45:24. > :45:28.from running. She raised again when it mattered. She should be proud.

:45:29. > :45:34.She had the winter youth Olympic also medal a couple of years ago.

:45:35. > :45:37.She is OK with being up there. Not take anything away but not one those

:45:38. > :45:44.medals that you would have said, that is the done deal! And this will

:45:45. > :45:55.relieve propel her forwards. If she decides to stay with athletics. She

:45:56. > :46:01.is very talented. Williams She is strong, quick, that is what you

:46:02. > :46:09.need. And she surprised herself. -- she is strong. She would not have

:46:10. > :46:14.expected a medal. And that smile lit up the arena. Let's get on with the

:46:15. > :46:24.hurdles, Steve Cram, take it away. They will be watching over their

:46:25. > :46:32.breakfast in Australia. Sally Pearson. The defending champion. And

:46:33. > :46:41.World Champion, Olympic champion. Sullivan. -- Solomon. We have had a

:46:42. > :46:52.redraw because her season's best was entered wrong. It was a typing

:46:53. > :47:05.error, literally. George, next to Sally Pearson. This is the

:47:06. > :47:17.Australian contingent cheering on their hero. Lucas, from Trinidad

:47:18. > :47:24.Tobago. So Solomon is trying to get in the top two to get into the

:47:25. > :47:30.final. Great socks! Pearson has had a troubled week, arguments with team

:47:31. > :47:36.management. It team management member has been suspended. A public

:47:37. > :47:40.fight, that cannot have helped preparations -- eight team

:47:41. > :47:46.management member. First two through to the final tomorrow.

:47:47. > :47:56.Pearson is away, Solomon also away. Jones running terribly for Canada.

:47:57. > :48:01.Solomon with an opportunity. It is about Sally Pearson at the front,

:48:02. > :48:13.who is second? It is tight. It could have been Lucas. It might have

:48:14. > :48:20.been. It is going to be a two horse race in the final. Sally Pearson.

:48:21. > :48:28.She is looking good. 12.69, Colin, a good time. A difficult preparation

:48:29. > :48:31.for the lead Pearson. Apart from not being as fit as she wants to be. --

:48:32. > :48:40.Sally Pearson. being as fit as she wants to be. --

:48:41. > :48:45.is not good. Not flawless preparations. She ran very well this

:48:46. > :48:49.season, fasting that set -- setting that fastest Commonwealth time. When

:48:50. > :48:57.she arrived, we wondered what shape she would be in. That heat tells us

:48:58. > :49:03.she is in very good shape indeed. She works hard. Great technically. I

:49:04. > :49:09.love to watch her skill over the barrier. She is so smooth and

:49:10. > :49:15.fluent. She drives in each hurdle, look at the head, perfectly still.

:49:16. > :49:20.Focusing on the barrier in front, she knows what is happening and how

:49:21. > :49:30.close it is going to be, how high she will lift her knee. Great

:49:31. > :49:32.hurdler, Sally. Solomon. We have seen her coming through the ranks.

:49:33. > :49:38.She is really seen her coming through the ranks.

:49:39. > :49:44.that England vest. And doing as well as she possibly can do. 13.38 today.

:49:45. > :49:51.Will that be enough? Keep our fingers crossed. The sad news for

:49:52. > :50:01.Solomon, she was in a qualifying position until the last couple of

:50:02. > :50:07.strides. But she lost out by what will be thousands of a second, so

:50:08. > :50:11.Sally Pearson and Lucas qualify. Solomon in third place because there

:50:12. > :50:17.are only two fastest loser desertions. -- positions. Solomon

:50:18. > :50:27.unfortunately is out. That is disappointing but it is

:50:28. > :50:32.fantastic to see Sally Pearson back. She looked fierce. Like the Sally

:50:33. > :50:38.Pearson we have grown to love and appreciate. Even last year after

:50:39. > :50:42.that Olympic injury, she only got a silver in Moscow and did not look

:50:43. > :50:47.quite the athlete we have got used to. She has made changes, she has

:50:48. > :50:54.got a new coach, she wanted to refresh outlooks on athletics and

:50:55. > :50:58.prepare to Rio. And she looks very good. She looked devastatingly good.

:50:59. > :51:05.These ladies have had to wait all day for the seats. Not the best

:51:06. > :51:09.preparation. -- for these heats. She made it look like the middle of the

:51:10. > :51:14.day and she was so ready. Performing to her audience, she made it look

:51:15. > :51:20.like she had just woken up fresh. We are not saying the athletes are

:51:21. > :51:25.complaining but it is not normal for heats to happen at the end, in the

:51:26. > :51:30.evening. This is different and they had the difficulty of having to wait

:51:31. > :51:34.around. They had been waiting all week, watching the other athletes

:51:35. > :51:38.compete, and now they have to start their first race at night-time. I am

:51:39. > :51:45.sure they would be happy to get that behind them. You can see the empty

:51:46. > :51:50.seats, people have decided to go home. It has been a long session. It

:51:51. > :51:59.is disappointing. And in Australia, it has been all. They are thinking,

:52:00. > :52:03.they are not interested. -- and in Australia, they are thinking that

:52:04. > :52:09.they are not interested. But Pearson delivering despite problems going on

:52:10. > :52:15.with the coaching staff. Eric came out and he has been recommended for

:52:16. > :52:22.what he said. That was based on the timing. His announcement, he put his

:52:23. > :52:26.statement out yesterday before Sally was to start running. A very

:52:27. > :52:32.critical statement, claiming that in his opinion, she is not a team

:52:33. > :52:37.leader and she is a bad example for the rest of the team. Chris she did

:52:38. > :52:41.not take part in the camp they had planned for the Australian athletes,

:52:42. > :52:46.choosing to run here and Moscow instead, which she needed. She

:52:47. > :52:52.missed out on the Diamond League earlier in the season. The third and

:52:53. > :52:53.final heat of the women's 100-metre hurdles. He will join these

:52:54. > :53:08.athletes? The record holder from Guernsey

:53:09. > :53:14.going out. That is Angela Whyte of Canada, silver-medallist in Delhi

:53:15. > :53:21.four years ago. And the Jamaican champion Monique Morgan. Those two

:53:22. > :53:25.women could perhaps challenged the big two of Sally Pearson and Tiffany

:53:26. > :53:34.Porter. -- challenge. Hurdles, it you never know. A former world

:53:35. > :53:43.semifinalist for the United States. Denby. It is Kierre Beckles of

:53:44. > :53:51.Barbados who is in a fastest loser position. Only two will go through

:53:52. > :53:57.automatically. This is the last of the heats to go through to the final

:53:58. > :54:18.tomorrow of the women's 100-metre finals.

:54:19. > :54:27.Clearly away, would start by Angela Whyte. John is alongside her.

:54:33. > :54:35.has gone and Angela Whyte is coming through. Shannon McDonnell in lane

:54:36. > :54:43.seven. Angela Whyte and Shannon McCann will go through automatically

:54:44. > :54:47.because of the hurdling on wrong for many Morgan, the Jamaican champion,

:54:48. > :54:54.so another potential champion goes. Angela Whyte looks strong. --

:54:55. > :55:03.because of the hurdling that has gone wrong. 13.33. Not very quick,

:55:04. > :55:06.but she is through. You do not see many scrappy races in women's

:55:07. > :55:12.hurdling. They always seem very controlled. But in this race, from

:55:13. > :55:19.Jamaica, she clatters a couple of hurdles. Whyte clattered this final

:55:20. > :55:26.area. She forced herself over the line without sprinting. They both

:55:27. > :55:31.worked really hard into this first hurdle which is very important. You

:55:32. > :55:41.run of that barrier as fast as you can and that sets you up. You are

:55:42. > :55:46.still accelerating. You get about here and you are at your optimum

:55:47. > :55:52.speed. Morgan crashes into the barrier. She tries to recover, she

:55:53. > :55:57.clips that again. Put under pressure and takes her out the equation.

:55:58. > :56:05.Angela Whyte smashes that touchy already has the lead so she is

:56:06. > :56:11.comfortably through. -- smashes that hurdle but she already has the lead.

:56:12. > :56:13.Both those athletes slower than the fastest losers who will go through.

:56:14. > :56:27.From the first heat. A shame Solomon was not in that

:56:28. > :56:30.heat, but we have our finalists for the hurdles tomorrow. It has been a

:56:31. > :56:40.thrilling night of athletics, the best so far? I am partial to the

:56:41. > :56:43.200. It was great being in the stadium when Eilidh Child was doing

:56:44. > :56:48.the victory lap. I meant the best lap, you -- the best night, you are

:56:49. > :56:53.picking the best moment. I am detailed. The best night by far, we

:56:54. > :57:00.knew there were going to be great finals tonight. The 800 got started,

:57:01. > :57:06.David Rudisha and Nijel Amos had a head again. It was wet, conditions

:57:07. > :57:09.were not great. -- head to head. David Rudisha has struggled to get

:57:10. > :57:17.back to his best but a thrilling last lap. It was an amazing Grace. A

:57:18. > :57:23.great quote, David Rudisha said to Guy Learmonth, thank you for making

:57:24. > :57:29.the final. He said when the crowd went mad, he felt like it was for

:57:30. > :57:36.him. I am sure that moment is special. Another great moment of the

:57:37. > :57:43.evening was the women's 200 m which was a coming of age for those young

:57:44. > :57:47.sprinters. We have talked about the depth and strength of writ -ish

:57:48. > :57:56.women's sprinting. Some of them of their right now -- British women's

:57:57. > :58:02.sprinting. They performed when it mattered, a great sense of

:58:03. > :58:06.achievement for both Williams girls. Stunning performance. Only 20 years

:58:07. > :58:12.of age. She is now the Commonwealth bronze-medallist. And she performed

:58:13. > :58:17.in the 100m as well and she came sixth. That gave her the belief, she

:58:18. > :58:22.saw her team-mates winning medals and she watched you could do it. And

:58:23. > :58:29.she delivered, as did her team-mate who we will see, Jodie Williams. As

:58:30. > :58:37.a junior, she won 151 races in a row and she has made that transition.

:58:38. > :58:40.Listen to that reaction, a wonderful evening. Thank you so much for

:58:41. > :58:45.sharing it. There are still some people here to enjoy this medal

:58:46. > :58:52.presentation. Actor Gary. We have run out of time. -- back to

:58:53. > :58:56.Gary. We are going over to BBC Two for badminton, weightlifting and

:58:57. > :59:02.table tennis. Hopefully you will join us, more sport to come, a

:59:03. > :59:05.brilliant night of athletics. Something quite sensational in a

:59:06. > :59:20.great atmosphere. See you in a couple of minutes.

:59:21. > :59:26.He has pulled it out of the bag! Gold in Glasgow!

:59:27. > :59:31.Claudia Fragapane, the golden girl once more.

:59:32. > :59:34.Superb riding from start to finish from Emma Pooley.

:59:35. > :59:38.Rebecca Downie is Commonwealth champion.

:59:39. > :59:44.That is your golden boy, Scotland's Daniel Keatings.

:59:45. > :59:49.Excellent bronze for Jones. Breathtaking gymnastics every single

:59:50. > :59:56.move never in doubt. Jazmin Sawyers, incredible.

:59:57. > :00:00.The hunt for silver and bronze. He is going to take the Gold medal.

:00:01. > :00:06.Eilidh Child of Scotland takes the silver.

:00:07. > :00:19.And it's about time that I did something about that.
