:00:00. > :00:00.especially when one leg is held up in the splits. She decided not to

:00:00. > :00:10.risk the double pike back off the beam. Just floated the straight

:00:11. > :00:21.somersault down, but this will be quite a low score. As far as home

:00:22. > :00:27.nation hope continues, we have Claudia Fragapane aim and Elizabeth

:00:28. > :00:37.eddo from Wales. Georgina Hockenhull from Wales, still to come here. She

:00:38. > :00:51.would have been so focused coming in here. Rebecca Downie with a score of

:00:52. > :00:55.nine point 833 but she leaves Glasgow with a gold medal on the

:00:56. > :01:00.bars and gold in the team final and the belly valued member of the

:01:01. > :01:09.England team. -- and a very valued member. Lauren Mitchell for

:01:10. > :01:19.Australia knows the door is open. Lovely original mount. Sharply into

:01:20. > :01:27.the front somersault. Commonwealth champion on the beam four years ago.

:01:28. > :01:30.Very experienced. One flip, two flip... It was just too low to be

:01:31. > :01:45.able to hold. these Championship but that

:01:46. > :01:56.somersault was quite low. Very nice rhythm. This is a move she

:01:57. > :02:03.has made her own. Very difficult spin beautiful poise. Very difficult

:02:04. > :02:14.and she performed it so well. Free walk over. And leap series, the

:02:15. > :02:20.change leg and calf. Gymnasts have to include some sideways movement.

:02:21. > :02:24.Nice and dramatic. Now big focus here for dismount. She

:02:25. > :02:29.struggled a bit in qualification. One flip, two flip, needs go high.

:02:30. > :02:33.Double tuck, that was better. It was a deep landing but she held it. It

:02:34. > :02:38.is all happening here in this beam final! We did say those who stay on

:02:39. > :02:43.could medal, and that could well be the story here. Well, to be honest,

:02:44. > :02:54.there was a very ambitious accuse row series and as Chris said, she

:02:55. > :03:00.was low. On that salto. -- acroseries. Knees buckled. No a

:03:01. > :03:06.chaps to straighten that one hundred up. What a pity. Her arms are

:03:07. > :03:12.usually straight in her flips and she is fast. But she did so well.

:03:13. > :03:19.Mitch. She did. This is very impressive. I would call it a

:03:20. > :03:23.Cossack, is that right? Yes it is a Cossack turn, but I suspect in the

:03:24. > :03:28.code of points this double is named after her as the first gymnast, when

:03:29. > :03:32.a gymnast performs it for the first time, if it has ever been done it

:03:33. > :03:36.has to be submitted to the judging Pam. The people in charge of the

:03:37. > :03:43.judging -- panel and they will tell you what they are going toye/Ward

:03:44. > :03:48.it. O going to award it. -- going to award it. In a quiet

:03:49. > :03:52.moment you want to try a sipping system Cossack turn, just on the

:03:53. > :03:57.carpet. I tell you what it is hard. There is not much room in here,

:03:58. > :04:15.Mitch. It is hard to keep that leg up.

:04:16. > :04:21.So the two very experienced favourites really, well probably

:04:22. > :04:29.three favour, Ellie black have both had an error. Robin judging. One of

:04:30. > :04:35.the top British judges. I bet at this stage, Rebecca is

:04:36. > :04:41.wishing she did a more complicated dismount.

:04:42. > :04:49.Hopefully, there wouldn't have been any chance of her achieving a medal

:04:50. > :04:53.with three falls. Think that is one of the problems with the code and

:04:54. > :04:57.they try to address it. It is not just a question of difficulty, it is

:04:58. > :05:03.not good for the sport if you can fall and get a medal. 13 scored for

:05:04. > :05:11.Lauren Mitchell. She was the second highest qualifiers. But Chris, your

:05:12. > :05:20.gymnast Georgina Hockenhull scored 13.733 in qualification.

:05:21. > :05:26.Marry Anne Monckton from Australia. The Australia beam champion. --

:05:27. > :05:30.Mary-Ann. And very interesting forward roll mount. All these

:05:31. > :05:38.gymnasts can see the door whited open. They will want do their best.

:05:39. > :05:47.Very smooth cartwheel lay out somersault. Very good control on the

:05:48. > :05:52.spin, with the leg held high. Smooth. The two leaps that are

:05:53. > :05:57.catching a lot of gymnasts out. But she held her nerve, just a little

:05:58. > :06:03.wobble. And another one on the free walk

:06:04. > :06:13.over, which surprises me. She jumped. Head back moves fluently

:06:14. > :06:19.back along the beam. Ooh, how well did she do there, her

:06:20. > :06:30.foot was right off on the change leg ring. A pause after before the side

:06:31. > :06:38.somersault. Another wobble, which she is fighting all the way.

:06:39. > :06:43.Really given a gritty performance here. It's a gritty dismount. Here

:06:44. > :06:47.we go, double pike, she does a very good dismount. She fought her way

:06:48. > :06:50.through that, she was staying on if it was the last thing she did. Let

:06:51. > :06:55.me tell you, all the spectators here, in the arena, are with the

:06:56. > :07:04.gymnast, with every single move, and they gasp, they gasp with every tiny

:07:05. > :07:10.wobble. She did a great job, that was determination, very light in

:07:11. > :07:17.this combination. Very light. And really well done, she was a bit off

:07:18. > :07:26.line, there wasn't she? Very determined gymnast. -- She wasn't

:07:27. > :07:31.going to part company with that beam. This a very impressive

:07:32. > :07:40.dismount. Nice and high, the chest is up. The

:07:41. > :07:45.double pike. Lovely timing. Which is why she was able to control the

:07:46. > :08:01.landing. She gets her shoulders up P A bit

:08:02. > :08:06.slow to get the shoulders up but a great way to finish. There has been

:08:07. > :08:13.a Saiki start to the beam final. The score to beat is 13. Two Australians

:08:14. > :08:20.in this final. It is quite an, a difficult format. She goes ahead of

:08:21. > :08:25.team-mate Lauren Mitchell and scores 13.666. That score is certainly

:08:26. > :08:39.beatable It It a big store, the six start is impressive.

:08:40. > :08:44.Nisha Patel-Nasri -- Onyshko. She she would tie for gold if she was to

:08:45. > :08:53.score the same again here. This is a good opener, the lay out.

:08:54. > :08:57.Oh, the lay out somersault, it is becoming catching, isn't it. Only

:08:58. > :09:09.one gymnast so far has managed to stay for the whole routine!

:09:10. > :09:18.Smooth free walk over. Links the two jump nicely. And that is a difficult

:09:19. > :09:27.jump. The full turn. The gym Nas have to include difficult jumps as

:09:28. > :09:33.well as acro bah sick stills. -- acrobatic skills She chose to

:09:34. > :09:40.lift the leg high, which is extra marks.

:09:41. > :09:46.That leap with the head back. Steadies the free cartwheel. These

:09:47. > :09:52.gymnasts have all these marks up, to get their difficulty, she, she has

:09:53. > :09:56.been impressive, but that series of the changed leg leap into the

:09:57. > :10:03.standing lay out, she paused between them. But this dismount risky and

:10:04. > :10:07.secure, worth a lot, one flip, two flip, up into the double tuck. Very

:10:08. > :10:11.well done, the dismount, they are doing well.

:10:12. > :10:15.It seems to be case for some of them, as soon as they get that

:10:16. > :10:18.wobble out of the way they go through their routine. It islike

:10:19. > :10:24.like they are waiting for that first moment, that first shaky... Well

:10:25. > :10:28.they do so many routine, they do lots and lots of beam routine, to

:10:29. > :10:33.stick, some days they will go in the gym and have to do a routine with no

:10:34. > :10:40.warm up, my word she was miles off wasn't she. She did well to give any

:10:41. > :10:48.sort of result from that. Left foot was off the beam. Just that littles

:10:49. > :10:54.he's take, I thought that was quite a good performance, once she had the

:10:55. > :10:58.fall, she settled down a little bit. But I was saying this is quite

:10:59. > :11:02.difficult. There is no warm up in here for the gymnast, they have had

:11:03. > :11:06.to have been warming up in the back gym and come in and perform cold,

:11:07. > :11:11.and not many of these gymnast also have dope that before. It is only --

:11:12. > :11:17.done that before, only Lauren and Becky will have done, the more

:11:18. > :11:23.experienced gymnasts will have done. Very positive in the dismount.

:11:24. > :11:28.Obviously, a good beam worker normally.

:11:29. > :11:35.Yes. Lauren Mitchell has put in an inquiry. She has got a score of 13

:11:36. > :11:39.at the moment. Not sure what that will be on. Difficulty. That is the

:11:40. > :11:43.only thing they, if they don't agree. If they thought she was

:11:44. > :11:48.probably expecting to get a six difficulty, she only got 5.9. She

:11:49. > :11:54.will want to know what they haven't counted, what they haven't given.

:11:55. > :12:05.Onyshko for now is in third place with a score of 12.666. The next

:12:06. > :12:08.gymnast there in this beam final, Claudia Fragapane, she has taken

:12:09. > :12:14.gold in every final that she has been in so far. How will she contend

:12:15. > :12:19.with the tension in this battle the beam. Well, in the all round

:12:20. > :12:26.competition she had a little attack of the nerves and fell. But I am

:12:27. > :12:34.sure she has learned from that. Links the two jumps well. And the

:12:35. > :12:40.turning jump. The full turn. She locks full of determination. This is

:12:41. > :12:46.acrobatic veries she came to grief on before. Smooth today. She just

:12:47. > :12:53.het Taited a bit. She looks smooth but learned from yesterday. "I am

:12:54. > :12:58.not coming off twice." Free walk over. The jump takes the head back,

:12:59. > :13:03.that is what the judges have to decide. Did she touch the head. That

:13:04. > :13:10.is what will affect the start value. But now, the super difficult skill.

:13:11. > :13:17.The tuck back with full twist. Just watch. Feet down, really strong.

:13:18. > :13:21.Tension in the middle. That is how you keep yourself on the beam, keep

:13:22. > :13:27.the muscles tight in the middle of your body. Free cartwheel, just the

:13:28. > :13:31.little bit of hesitation. Now we have seen her perform this dismount

:13:32. > :13:36.really well this series of competition, one flip, two flip,

:13:37. > :13:42.double pike. Really welling well done Claudia. Claudia Fragapane, she

:13:43. > :13:47.stays on. She manages to execute all of the difficulty, there is dad! Mum

:13:48. > :13:52.and dad there. She did really well. What a lot she has learned through

:13:53. > :13:57.this Championships. Two days ago she didn't manage to put the nevers as

:13:58. > :14:02.bay. Today she showed what she is going to be.

:14:03. > :14:08.She did fight. She really did fight. -- nevers at bay.

:14:09. > :14:13.So crucial and Christine, you thought this was safe. Look at the

:14:14. > :14:20.way she gathered. Got the centre of gravity back over her feet. She was

:14:21. > :14:28.not going to part company. This, incredible stuff.

:14:29. > :14:34.Little tiny gymnast, very fast with her movements. Full twisting back

:14:35. > :14:39.somersault is really quite incredible to achieve. We have to

:14:40. > :14:43.remind everybody this is her first year in senior competition, how she

:14:44. > :14:47.has managed to cope with that, she has obviously watched all the

:14:48. > :14:56.gymnasts go before, and look at the reaction, mum can't look! This the

:14:57. > :15:00.big dismount. She hasn't -- hadn't competed this dismount, not in major

:15:01. > :15:05.competition, she look like she has done it all her life.

:15:06. > :15:13.And that is not a very long life at 16.

:15:14. > :15:17.What a future she has got. First up, first up on their feet.

:15:18. > :15:23.And I am sure they think what we are, another gold, in the gym bag.

:15:24. > :15:31.Well, I think it will be the top score so far and everyone else has

:15:32. > :15:33.to do better to beat him. I think she's just seen the pictures of

:15:34. > :15:39.to do better to beat him. I think she's just seen the pictures her mum

:15:40. > :15:43.and dad there. Nice to see Rebecca Downie passing

:15:44. > :15:48.on her congratulationses too. Well, there you are Lauren Mitchell's

:15:49. > :15:54.inquiry has been rejected. That difficulty score, so you will

:15:55. > :15:59.have to settle with a score of 13. Lauren Mitchell in second place.

:16:00. > :16:05.Monckton leads this competition with a score of 13.666. Will Claudia

:16:06. > :16:13.Fragapane beat it? She will not. Well. A score of 13.133. Surprise

:16:14. > :16:24.Chris. It was wobbly, that start value was well done, she posted 5.7

:16:25. > :16:28.in qualification. The next gymnast from Wales Elizabeth Beddoe, 19

:16:29. > :16:31.yeergz old. -- years old

:16:32. > :17:04.Smoothly through the two leaps. Layout somersault, good strong

:17:05. > :17:49.tension on landing. Well, she's focussed so far.

:17:50. > :17:55.Well done Lizzie, that really was a smooth performance. Very smooth.

:17:56. > :18:04.Hey, listen, the medals at the moment, 13 is the score. Could get

:18:05. > :18:08.close. She could. She could, indeed. National coach for Wales

:18:09. > :18:12.congratulates her. That was as good a performance as she could give.

:18:13. > :18:19.That's what you ask from your Clean and gymnasts. In control. She

:18:20. > :18:28.squared up, hip and shoulder, to make sure of the landing there.

:18:29. > :18:35.There was a touch of elegance, more than just a touch, I think. Yeah,

:18:36. > :18:41.she's a very elegant gymnast, stylish. A different style to some

:18:42. > :18:51.of the others, she hasn't got the huge power of some of them. A

:18:52. > :18:55.gymnast with a very nice touch. Very confident, set, into the

:18:56. > :19:08.one-and-a-half twists. Stretching hard through the hips and toes. Well

:19:09. > :19:12.done Lizzie Beddoe. Not such a difficult dismount than some, just a

:19:13. > :19:24.C. That affects her difficulty score a little. Better to be secure.

:19:25. > :19:34.Just a reminder, a score of 13 needed to get up into the top three.

:19:35. > :19:47.An anxious wait. An anxious wait for Georgina Hockenhull. Hopefully

:19:48. > :19:53.Elizabeth Beddoe will have settled the beam down for Georgina. 13. 366,

:19:54. > :20:00.Elizabeth Beddoe from Wales goes into second position.

:20:01. > :20:04.Two gymnasts are left to go. Classic example there if you do what

:20:05. > :20:11.you do, do it well, don't worry about the difficulty, it pays off.

:20:12. > :20:12.Georgina Hockenhull, 17 years old. The penultimate gymnast in the beam

:20:13. > :21:33.final. Wow, Georgia! Fantastic performance.

:21:34. > :21:40.Whatever the score is, that was a great performance. Well, Wales are

:21:41. > :21:48.guaranteed a medal in this women's beam final, because Elizabeth Beddoe

:21:49. > :21:53.is in second place at the moment. There are her coaches congratulating

:21:54. > :21:57.her. One of her coaches, the other one is sitting next to me. I don't

:21:58. > :22:03.know whose heart is beating harder, mine probably! Chris, you must be

:22:04. > :22:08.delighted and so proud of her. That was such a classy performance. She

:22:09. > :22:12.is classy on beam. You know, she's never worked in this format before,

:22:13. > :22:18.never come out to the big arena with no warm-up. I just wasn't sure quite

:22:19. > :22:24.how it would affect her. Shh... She was light -- She was light, elegant,

:22:25. > :22:27.in control - I'll say it for you - she really was, on top of this

:22:28. > :22:32.performance, and lovely to see. It Tyny adjustment there -- tiny

:22:33. > :22:37.adjustment there, but she looks so good on this apparatus. Hasn't got

:22:38. > :22:46.the hugest start value as some of the gymnasts, but the dismount was

:22:47. > :22:57.good. Very good work. Wouldn't it be great, hey? Superb. Well they know

:22:58. > :23:03.what they want to happen. So, she needs 13. 133 to knock Fragapane out

:23:04. > :23:08.of the medals at this stage. However, we've still got a very

:23:09. > :23:13.experienced gymnast to come. She's gone into second! Georgina

:23:14. > :23:18.Hockenhull currently in Silver Medal position. That means a medal,

:23:19. > :23:30.doesn't it? Definitely. Brilliant stuff.

:23:31. > :23:34.Ellie Black rounds off the women's beam final. She has got the

:23:35. > :23:38.difficulty and potentially the execution. She has indeed.

:23:39. > :24:07.Difficulty score of 6. 4 in qualification.

:24:08. > :24:59.She fought tlard because she was a little underrotated.

:25:00. > :25:05.That was a very difficult, well performed She didn't routine. Have

:25:06. > :25:09.much fun in the women's all-around competition. She took silver on

:25:10. > :25:19.vault yesterday. Surely, surely she's medaled here in the women's

:25:20. > :25:23.beam final. Very, very determined. Very determined performance. Two

:25:24. > :25:31.days in a row, she fell from beam. And third time she was determined

:25:32. > :25:34.not to let that happen. But, Christine, congratulations, because

:25:35. > :25:43.Georgina Hockenhull guaranteed a medal Thank you very much. I'm

:25:44. > :25:48.delighted. So you should be. She's prrched well in this -- performed

:25:49. > :26:00.well in this company. This is very impressive.

:26:01. > :26:21.Solid on the acro. Just for good measure, she puts in a full turn.

:26:22. > :26:29.That is very, very impressive work. Two-and-a-half twists to wrap up a

:26:30. > :26:35.competent and classy performance. Mary Anne Monckton leads this final

:26:36. > :26:44.with a score of 13. 666. That is the score to beat. I'd be very surprise

:26:45. > :26:50.today she can't -- surprised if she can't beat that. Though the judgeds

:26:51. > :27:01.have been -- judges have been quite tight this competition.

:27:02. > :27:10.Anxious wait for Mary Anne Monckton. Surely she's done enough? Mind you,

:27:11. > :27:14.you would have thought that Claudia Fragapane had done enough to medal,

:27:15. > :27:18.she's now in fourth. She must have not counted her leap series, the

:27:19. > :27:23.first two leaps she did, there was the slightest hesitation. If you

:27:24. > :27:31.don't get that counted, it's 0. 5 up, that's the different between 5.

:27:32. > :27:39.2 and 5. 7. Ellie Black, look at that! She's the Commonwealth beam

:27:40. > :27:44.champion with Mary Anne Monckton in silver. But Wales' Georgina

:27:45. > :27:51.Hockenhull takes bronze in the beam final.

:27:52. > :28:06.Well, what a score indeed. But there is the bronze medallist from Wales.

:28:07. > :28:11.All those hours in the gym, the pair of you have put in, they've paid

:28:12. > :28:16.off. Absolutely. And she's had problems on beam with confidence,

:28:17. > :28:21.but once she found the key to herself really she's very skilful.

:28:22. > :28:25.She's a very consistent gymnast. She always does it the same every time,

:28:26. > :28:28.which is the key to being good on beam. Anybody that just watched that

:28:29. > :28:32.performance, wouldn't have thought she had any problems with

:28:33. > :28:36.confidence, to come out into an arena like this, with all eyes on

:28:37. > :28:45.her and produce and perform in the way she did. There is Ellie Black,

:28:46. > :28:52.the winner. Becky Downie finishes eighth. Georgina Hockenhull, from

:28:53. > :29:02.Wales, another bronze medal for Wales.

:29:03. > :29:10.Come on, Chris, talk us through this. I think this is the free

:29:11. > :29:14.walkover. She does it really well. She can see the beam, for a long

:29:15. > :29:19.time, leans the head back, the legs are dead straight, as the foot goes

:29:20. > :29:30.down she is able to make the jump. That led her to a bronze medal. Mary

:29:31. > :29:42.Anne Monckton. Beautiful dismount takes her into silver. There is your

:29:43. > :29:48.Commonwealth champion on beam, Ellie Black.

:29:49. > :29:52.STUDIO: What a great performance. Wales have another bronze medal,

:29:53. > :29:56.Georgina Hockenhull, many congratulations. I will update you

:29:57. > :30:00.at what's happening in the other semifinal. Australia had made it

:30:01. > :30:05.through to the final by beating South Africa by 7-1. England looking

:30:06. > :30:10.to book a place in the final. Currently 0-0 against new zeal.

:30:11. > :30:17.Watch that match on BBC Three. That's all from me on BBC One. It is

:30:18. > :30:20.now time for Hazel irvain. -- irvin, congratulations to Lizzie Beddoe,

:30:21. > :30:25.she was so excited about the Games and she put in a wrchl performance.

:30:26. > :30:30.Fantastic for Wales again, two bronze medals and you leave the

:30:31. > :30:35.studio a happy man. I do, indeed. There's been much to smile about for

:30:36. > :30:39.the home nations, it's been raining Gold Medals for Scotland and for

:30:40. > :30:44.England. We've been dusting down the record books this afternoon in

:30:45. > :30:48.anticipation of more, perhaps. Due know that the most -- did you know

:30:49. > :30:52.that the most decorated English athlete any time in a sing am Games

:30:53. > :30:57.has won four gold medals. It's happened three times. Max Whitlock

:30:58. > :31:07.and Claudia Fragapane have a chance to equal that today. There could be

:31:08. > :31:12.more gold acoming. Max has won more final remaining in the means

:31:13. > :31:16.parallel bars and so does little Miss Dynamo, Claudia has the floor

:31:17. > :31:21.and she is the top qualifier in that.

:31:22. > :31:26.Amazingly 250 home nation's boxers are guaranteed medals in the ring,

:31:27. > :31:32.that I could upgrade that to silver, in all 13 weight divisions and we

:31:33. > :31:39.meet the man who sparked a one man sporting revolution in a tiny

:31:40. > :31:45.nation. So we have a lot to enjoy. We will keep a close eye on vents in

:31:46. > :31:51.the Hydro, but we are keeping tabs on the proproof the boxers in the

:31:52. > :31:55.SECC this afternoon. The numbers are bewildering, when you look at this.

:31:56. > :32:00.There is one home nation's fighter and sometimes up to three in all of

:32:01. > :32:03.the semifinals. Going in all of the 13 weight divisions today. I made a

:32:04. > :32:08.tally of it. Nine for Northern Ireland. Seven from England. Five

:32:09. > :32:12.from Wales, and four Scots. It is going well. I think that will be the

:32:13. > :32:15.understatement of cafe day. We will catch up with a MEP's light

:32:16. > :32:21.welterweight division. It is the first of the semifinals. It is an

:32:22. > :32:25.England-Scotland affair. We have Sam Maxwell, the 25-year-old from

:32:26. > :32:31.Liverpool. He takes on, someone he knows rather well. Josh Taylor, the

:32:32. > :32:36.20-year-old from Preston Pans in East Lothian. It was Josh who pipped

:32:37. > :32:42.Sam for the place at the London Olympics two years ago. Josh's

:32:43. > :32:44.nickname is Pebbles, just to remind him he is not Rocky yet. Something

:32:45. > :32:57.has to give here. The man voted best official in

:32:58. > :33:03.London 2012 a couple of years ago Mickey Gallagher brings together a

:33:04. > :33:06.Scotsman and an Englishman, that itself really is something to

:33:07. > :33:10.savour. It is hard to tell which of these two boxers has been the better

:33:11. > :33:15.all the way through, this would have made a wonderful final. It is the

:33:16. > :33:20.third time for both of them. And the man in blue, Josh Taylor, silver

:33:21. > :33:26.medallist four years ago in the lower division and Olympian a couple

:33:27. > :33:31.of years ago. Has won all his three contest, likewise Sam Maxwell the

:33:32. > :33:38.25-year-old from Liverpool. Won all three, first by stoppage, next to

:33:39. > :33:42.unanimous decision all victories have been unanimous decision to The

:33:43. > :33:46.Scotsman. Interesting contrast in style, The Scotsman Josh Taylor,

:33:47. > :33:49.maybe the taller of the two. The southpaw style and Maxwell has boxed

:33:50. > :33:56.wonderfully well to get to this, but this is a big step up for Maxwell.

:33:57. > :34:01.It is, someone asked me about this contest and I described it as a bout

:34:02. > :34:06.like physical chess. It will be. They know each other inside out.

:34:07. > :34:10.They spar each other every day at Team GB in Sheffield. It literally

:34:11. > :34:13.is whoever makes the wrong moves here, will get punished. That is

:34:14. > :34:16.somehow close it is. There is nothing in the spar, in Sheffield,

:34:17. > :34:23.they are very very evenly matched. And it is who can make you the one

:34:24. > :34:27.to make mistake, go back and punish him. It is going to be very close

:34:28. > :34:36.throughout this. Josh Taylor lost four years ago in

:34:37. > :34:43.the 52 kg final. I should say 60 kg final in deli -- Delhi to Thomas

:34:44. > :34:49.Stoker. He won't want to make the same mistake. This is a cagey

:34:50. > :34:54.contest. Maxwell is not a particularly flamboyant boxer.

:34:55. > :34:58.Taylor has produced solid punches to put his opponent on the floor and

:34:59. > :35:06.hasn't had the chance do that here. Good footwork by the Scot.

:35:07. > :35:12.Think Maxwell started this contest better ethough, Jim. Pushing Taylor

:35:13. > :35:19.back. Taylor produces a shot like that.

:35:20. > :35:24.Like I said, it is anyones. Maxwell comes straight back, as if to say

:35:25. > :35:29."OK, you caught me, have some of this." Maxwell tornado to be a

:35:30. > :35:36.straighter puncher but Taylor has the power and has a great right

:35:37. > :35:40.hook. He is delivering that shot. Is it a plus or minus knowing each

:35:41. > :35:45.other so well, having worked together for the goodbye squad?

:35:46. > :35:50.Think it is -- GB squad. It is both to be honest. That is not an answer.

:35:51. > :35:55.It is, though, yeah. What a good opening round, nobody

:35:56. > :36:00.really wanted to be guilty of making an error to allow the opponent any

:36:01. > :36:07.chance of an opening. Sam Maxwell will be pleased about that. Taylor

:36:08. > :36:11.eventually decides to sit down. Not a lot in the round. I thought

:36:12. > :36:14.Maxwell started the round better, with that right hand. Held centre

:36:15. > :36:21.very well. There is that right hook, though. That I spoke about. From

:36:22. > :36:28.Taylor. A lot of power in that shot. Nothing in it at all. Maxwell will

:36:29. > :36:32.look to land mid-long range straight shots and Taylor on the inside.

:36:33. > :36:37.Let's have a look. 2-1 to Taylor. Very close. Could have been the

:36:38. > :36:40.other way It was either way. I have a feeling this will go to the

:36:41. > :37:06.wire. Josh Taylor the southpaw from

:37:07. > :37:18.Scotland in blue in this 64 kg lightweight.

:37:19. > :37:26.There was nothing wrong with that left hand. Was the most stiff can't

:37:27. > :37:30.punch of the contest so far. To remind Sam Maxwell how dangerous he

:37:31. > :37:33.is. Maxwell a bit quicker with that shot, that right hand and Taylor

:37:34. > :37:39.having to work signed. Did he hurt Taylor with that? . The problem is

:37:40. > :37:43.with Maxwell he has lovely straight hands, and, he hit the target but

:37:44. > :37:47.holds his feet now and again, he is not then blocking what is coming

:37:48. > :37:51.back from Taylor. Good strike work from Maxwell but holds his feet

:37:52. > :37:55.fractionally too long. That allowed Taylor to come back with that left

:37:56. > :38:01.hand over the top. Taylor got him about 15 seconds ago with a very

:38:02. > :38:04.good obvious left hand. Taylor just moving away, inviting Maxwell to

:38:05. > :38:08.come forward. A bit of work on the second round by The Scotsman, must

:38:09. > :38:11.have known it was close, at the end of the enoing three minute, Maxwell

:38:12. > :38:16.has a wee bit to do. He has to pick up the pace an he is coming forward.

:38:17. > :38:20.That might suit the counter punching southpaw from Scotland. With Maxwell

:38:21. > :38:24.trying to land that right hand. He drops his left coming forward. That

:38:25. > :38:29.is the problem, that is why he is walking on to the right. Watch, his

:38:30. > :38:34.left hand comes low, if he leans forward. Look how low that left

:38:35. > :38:38.happened is. That is why he gets caught with the right hook because

:38:39. > :38:44.he is leaning forward after he has landed that right. A much, much

:38:45. > :38:49.livelier round this first and the second. Taylor slipped to the

:38:50. > :38:54.orthodox stance, now he is back to the more familiar southpaw, trying

:38:55. > :38:59.to bamboozle his man. God footwork by the Scot. Taylor not getting a

:39:00. > :39:04.glove on him. Maxwell locking to box on the counter. He has to watch he

:39:05. > :39:08.doesn't walk on the a right hook, trying to land that right hand,

:39:09. > :39:15.there it is there, got to watch that right hook counter from his

:39:16. > :39:23.opponent. Clever by Josh Taylor in blue.

:39:24. > :39:32.A least a third of this round and Sam Maxwell comes storming back at

:39:33. > :39:34.him. Taylor the favourite to take gold in

:39:35. > :39:47.this division by some distance. Maxwell making the mistake of

:39:48. > :39:52.dropping his hands. His guard is a bit leaky at close quarters.

:39:53. > :40:02.Two of the three judges gave it to Taylor at the end of the first. I

:40:03. > :40:06.think all three will say it o -- see it The Scotsman way. It was a lot

:40:07. > :40:11.more intensity, a lot more commitment The eye-catching shots

:40:12. > :40:16.probably come from Taylor. Just gets caught there. Plenty of volume from

:40:17. > :40:21.Maxwell, but it is just on the signed, when he is in close quarter,

:40:22. > :40:25.his guard is a bit low. That allowed Taylor to come back, but good

:40:26. > :40:30.sustained pressure from Maxwell. That wasn't too bad. Let us lock.

:40:31. > :40:35.They have gone for Taylor. All three have given to Josh Taylor, so the

:40:36. > :40:40.Scot very much in driving seat, in front of us there. His home crowd.

:40:41. > :40:43.Not quite his home crowd. He was born in Edinburgh, lives in Preston

:40:44. > :41:00.Pans. To get to his first Commonwealth

:41:01. > :41:02.Games boxing final at the age of 21. The Englishman is going to have to

:41:03. > :41:07.produce the three minutes of his career so far, he is trailing on the

:41:08. > :41:13.judges' cards to the favour flit this decision the Olympian for two

:41:14. > :41:16.years ago, albeit at a lighter weight, Josh Taylor who in the

:41:17. > :41:22.second round picked up the pace an used his style, just to ease ahead,

:41:23. > :41:25.Maxwell, I think, is going to give them everything, as you would

:41:26. > :41:32.expect. They know each other so well. You can they is is a plus, you

:41:33. > :41:35.can say it is a minus. Here comes Maxwelling locking for

:41:36. > :41:38.the big right hand. As Richie said in the second round when he throws

:41:39. > :41:43.that right, he dropped his left an he has got caught. Mickey Gallagher

:41:44. > :41:48.telling both of them to behave themselves, don't hit round the back

:41:49. > :41:53.of the head. Maxwell has to go on the front foot

:41:54. > :41:57.now. He will to he is behind. So he is going for it.

:41:58. > :42:03.That is a good right hand. What a great shot. And Taylor's gloves

:42:04. > :42:05.which art part and Maxwell got in. Travelled about seven or eight

:42:06. > :42:12.inches and caught the Scots map flush. Can Maxwell do more of

:42:13. > :42:16.that?tive already, gets himself off the rope r there is is a bit of

:42:17. > :42:20.grappling going on there, the referee lets them get on with it.

:42:21. > :42:24.This is a better round from Maxwell. He is on the front foot. He looks

:42:25. > :42:31.some lit and he has caught Taylor again on the chin and Taylor is not

:42:32. > :42:35.looking all that assured when he has been pushed backward. I can't

:42:36. > :42:40.believe he is tiring, these fellas are fit as racing snakes.

:42:41. > :42:47.We need to see more work from Taylor, Maxwell, this is a better

:42:48. > :42:51.round. Can Taylor respond? Reich tactics from Maxwell -- like tactics

:42:52. > :42:57.from Maxwell. On that front foot. Going forward. Heads clashed there.

:42:58. > :43:00.That is nasty. Now Josh Taylor needs a very big last 50 seconds or so,

:43:01. > :43:05.just to secure this victory, that was a good short right hand. Maxwell

:43:06. > :43:09.delayed a bit. Taylor got him with a left again, so that flurry of

:43:10. > :43:13.Maxwell's may just have eased him ahead but Taylor is determined not

:43:14. > :43:18.to concede this last round. This is the crucial round. Coming into that

:43:19. > :43:21.crucial period. Good right hand from the Englishman, comes storming

:43:22. > :43:25.forward. Maxwell gets him again, this time with a left. Taylor

:43:26. > :43:29.holding. Maxwell holding on the blind side of the referee. Mickey

:43:30. > :43:34.Gallagher lets them get on with it again. Is there one more telling

:43:35. > :43:39.punch here? Up to now you would say Maxwell for me has won this last

:43:40. > :43:42.round, Jim on that front foot. We have only seen a few accident shots

:43:43. > :43:45.from Taylor. That was a better one from him. He knows that may have

:43:46. > :43:49.been the clincher, we will have to see how the throw judges see it,

:43:50. > :43:55.another little short right happened from the Scot. And he finishes in

:43:56. > :43:59.his own corner and Taylor holds up his hands and he gives him a hug.

:44:00. > :44:05.They are great buddy, they train together, spar together, they knock

:44:06. > :44:10.seven bells out of each other. Maxwell shakes his head. Josh taste

:44:11. > :44:14.Thor the English corner and they both say thank do you Irish referee.

:44:15. > :44:18.What a contest, what a last round. Maxwell had his moments, thought he

:44:19. > :44:24.was nicking it. Taylor came back, that could be a very close last

:44:25. > :44:28.round. It was indeed. May have gone two to one. I thought Maxwell had

:44:29. > :44:33.the better of this round. Last 30, 40 second, Taylor turned on a bit,

:44:34. > :44:39.and that helped his cause there. Bringing Maxwell top a lovely shot.

:44:40. > :44:45.He thinks he has got it. The winner by unanimous decision and

:44:46. > :44:51.through the final, in the blue corner. Taylor has got it. Taylor

:44:52. > :44:56.has got it. She ecstatic about that. He was put under fierce pressure in

:44:57. > :45:02.that last round and two of the judges gave it to the Englishman,

:45:03. > :45:06.one gave it to Taylor, but they decisive round was the second round

:45:07. > :45:10.when Taylor won it across the board. The saltires fly.

:45:11. > :45:16.They do indeed. Josh tailor who won a silver in Delhi has a chance to

:45:17. > :45:19.upgrade tomorrow. He will be finding Jonas of Namibia. If you want to

:45:20. > :45:24.soak up the punches all day, you can, because all the boxing

:45:25. > :45:28.semifinals are on the Red Button, all day as long as you can take it.

:45:29. > :45:34.We are heading over to the hydro because this is the fifth and final

:45:35. > :45:38.day of the artistic gymnastic, there has been dizzying success for the

:45:39. > :45:43.Home Nations, in fact Scotland and England have claimed eight of the 11

:45:44. > :45:47.titles so far. Next up, is one of the most technical events of them

:45:48. > :45:57.all. It's the men's parallel bar, they are walking out. So let us join

:45:58. > :46:08.Matt and Beth. There is Frank Baines banes. He's settled down in the

:46:09. > :46:13.second vault. He's got the three finals today, he's got the nerves

:46:14. > :46:17.out of the way. He can focus. There's two Scottish gymnasts and

:46:18. > :46:21.two English gymnasts here. We can't discount Dan Purvis. He has the

:46:22. > :46:26.highest difficulty score and that has been key. It has. With

:46:27. > :46:34.difficulty comes the risk, but Daniel is use d to performing at

:46:35. > :46:39.major championships. Max Whitlock, as I'm sure you recognise him now,

:46:40. > :46:43.one of the gymnasts that has been on the rostrum more than most, three

:46:44. > :46:51.golds and a silver to his name. He's about to be introduced here in the

:46:52. > :46:54.Hydro. He likes to get his preparation absolutely right. There

:46:55. > :46:59.he is. Looking relieved, I think today. He was a little bit tired

:47:00. > :47:12.yesterday. This is the last day of competition. As it is for Niall

:47:13. > :47:16.Wilson. Zachary Clay. Luke Wadsworth from Australia, quite impressive in

:47:17. > :47:22.the all-around competition. Frank Baines looking to make a mark in

:47:23. > :47:31.this parallel bars final. This lad got a silver on rings yesterday

:47:32. > :47:39.Kevin Lytwyn. Tsukahara will be next to be introduced. And rounding

:47:40. > :47:43.things off here in the Hydro, the man who took bronze on rings

:47:44. > :47:49.yesterday, what can he do here? So, it's going to be a real fight, this

:47:50. > :47:53.one, Beth? It is. I think it's one of those finals and it's open to

:47:54. > :47:58.anyone. Frank has a great technical routine. He was the highest

:47:59. > :48:03.qualifier. He was. But he's had a slow competition. So, hopefully,

:48:04. > :48:09.fingers crossed he can pull it out on this one. He was junior European

:48:10. > :48:14.champion a couple of years. He aI major injury last year. Absolutely

:48:15. > :48:19.obsessed on the execution side of things. That's what was his problem

:48:20. > :48:24.on the first vault Here, it really relies on the long body swing, which

:48:25. > :48:27.he's got. Beautiful flow. He has excellent execution and he's a

:48:28. > :48:33.classy gymnast to watch. The first guy up, I think we all know his

:48:34. > :48:37.name, without even mentioning it now. His execution is perfect. It's

:48:38. > :48:42.fair to say, they don't come much classier than Max Whitlock. He said

:48:43. > :48:45.in his chat with Ore yesterday he was feeling it a little bit.

:48:46. > :48:50.Obviously, they've had a lot to cope with with the schedule. It's been a

:48:51. > :48:55.tough schedule. For the likes of Max, he's done every single day.

:48:56. > :48:58.Even now, just an arm bend or slight leg bend that is the difference

:48:59. > :49:04.between the Gold Medal and not picking up a medal. Today, it's

:49:05. > :49:11.almost like, after today we're finished. Give it your all. No doubt

:49:12. > :49:18.he will. This is his last final. The first gymnast to go, of the top

:49:19. > :49:25.eight qualifiers is Max Whitlock. Three golds and a silver to his name

:49:26. > :50:01.here at these Commonwealth Games. Now back to Mitch and Christine.

:50:02. > :50:35.Oh, just a little jump back, but Max Whitlock, very, very, very fine bid

:50:36. > :50:42.there for yesterday another medal. What a Gauntlettlet to have laid

:50:43. > :50:47.down from Max Whitlock. Follow that if you can, gents! Most of these

:50:48. > :50:51.gymnasts have a similar start value. Only Dan Purvis with the high start

:50:52. > :50:57.value. It's going to be down to execution. Who performs the most

:50:58. > :51:03.faultlessly. And really, he hasn't given very much away here. No,

:51:04. > :51:07.lovely technique. Very sure and confident performance. This was

:51:08. > :51:12.lovely, look how high the hips were in the front uprise. Plenty of

:51:13. > :51:19.clearance in the straddle one and a quarter. Lovely eek neeck. --

:51:20. > :51:24.technique. Good extension. I think having watched Max here, he has

:51:25. > :51:32.improved his amplitude in his work a lot. His execution scores rim

:51:33. > :51:36.proving. He's always had lots of -- Scores are improving. Sometimes it's

:51:37. > :51:39.been a bit untidy. He's still not got the greatest extension through

:51:40. > :51:49.his feet, but he's picked up a lot there.

:51:50. > :51:56.8. 966 for execution! That is a big score to beat.

:51:57. > :51:57.A score ever 15, would get you into a world finals, that shows the class

:51:58. > :52:25.of that performance. The Yorkshireman is chalked up and

:52:26. > :52:31.ready to go. Niall Wilson -- Nile Wilson, junior

:52:32. > :52:35.European champion. The technique they acquire and is insisted upon in

:52:36. > :52:44.the junior ranks, stands them in good stead for senior. Look at that

:52:45. > :53:19.. With that stuck dismount, I think he

:53:20. > :53:24.might just have done it! Chris said earlier, it's about difficulty, but

:53:25. > :53:29.really execution will decide What a it. Display of parallel bar work we

:53:30. > :53:36.are being treated to here! It doesn't come much better than this.

:53:37. > :53:42.Absolutely superb. He's a star. He's loved these championships Nile. He's

:53:43. > :53:47.a real find. You never sure how juniors will make the next step and

:53:48. > :53:49.he's really shown he can make it. The older lads will be looking over

:53:50. > :54:01.their shoulder. That was brilliant. To work to one rail so clean and

:54:02. > :54:07.show it under control. That is a brilliant skill.

:54:08. > :54:18.Look at that! Keeps the shoulders down until the somersault is

:54:19. > :54:29.guaranteed. What a prospect for the future.

:54:30. > :54:33.You've said it Matt, his focus for one so young. I can't actually

:54:34. > :54:37.believe it. To come straight from the junior

:54:38. > :54:45.ranks, what, a couple of months ago and here he is, in front of - he

:54:46. > :54:49.probably will not compete in front of a more packed house even at the

:54:50. > :54:54.Olympics. Everybody is just looking at the gymnasts and he is relishing

:54:55. > :55:04.it. He's gone into the lead! I've seen

:55:05. > :55:08.medals at World Championships won with a lower score than that. What a

:55:09. > :55:12.performance. Absolutely, what an addition to the team because P bars

:55:13. > :55:22.hasn't been the best piece for the senior men over the last few years.

:55:23. > :55:39.Well Zachary Clay, good luck following that, my friend.

:55:40. > :56:05.Once you bend your arms, the swing goes out of control.

:56:06. > :56:18.That was just too early. He didn't get the lift above the bar. You

:56:19. > :56:22.rarely see that sort of wild fall on parallel bars. The centre of gravity

:56:23. > :56:27.never got above the bar, not a chance. Slipped along it. It's a

:56:28. > :56:45.difficult skill at the best of time. You have to keep the swing.

:56:46. > :56:54.Just a pace forward, but he had a rough time TV there. Time of it

:56:55. > :56:59.there. Absolute respect for getting back up and continuing with the

:57:00. > :57:04.routine. He must have been shaken. You would have thought so. Because

:57:05. > :57:10.really P bars, they clatter themselves on the bars. You rarely

:57:11. > :57:13.see a wild fall like that. There's a lot of force underneath those bars

:57:14. > :57:20.as you swing down and through. I remember back in the day, we used to

:57:21. > :57:26.put form on the uprights because you would often run into them -- put

:57:27. > :57:31.foam on the uprights because you would often run into them. That

:57:32. > :57:36.could have been dangerous. That's going back a bit, foam on the

:57:37. > :57:43.uprights? Oh, yeah. Is that not done any more? Maybe he needs to

:57:44. > :57:53.introduce a bit of foam in his uprights. He did the Dalton very

:57:54. > :57:55.well. This guy can swing. Nice dismount but all to no avail. Too

:57:56. > :58:15.much went wrong. He made a final. There's the current leader Nile

:58:16. > :58:20.Wilson. High bar still to come for him today.

:58:21. > :58:21.First of the two Australian gymnasts in this parallel bar final is Luke

:58:22. > :58:31.Wadsworth. He finished ninth in the all-around

:58:32. > :58:36.competition. A real liked gymnast, isn't he, Mitch? He's quite suited,

:58:37. > :58:40.in relation to his body he has long They use levers. D to say you need

:58:41. > :58:43.that proportion, which he has. You need soft and Supple shoulders. I

:58:44. > :58:57.think he fills the bill. Oh, he missed that.

:58:58. > :59:47.It's difficult to time that one. A kip forward. He struggled through

:59:48. > :59:51.and he got through. I think the first two gymnasts from England, I

:59:52. > :59:54.think they rattled everybody, because I mean, how do you follow

:59:55. > :00:00.They were that? So good, weren't they? When you think what is this -

:00:01. > :00:05.fifth day of competition, they should be weakening a bit, but they

:00:06. > :00:10.looked so on it. I think you're right, Matt, because this, you know,

:00:11. > :00:19.we've seen him do this fine in the last three competitions. You know it

:00:20. > :00:22.is a little bit to do with how well conditioned you are and the

:00:23. > :00:26.repetitions. If you've done the numbers, if you have done those

:00:27. > :00:32.routines over and over, the elements perfectly over and over, you can

:00:33. > :00:34.with stand the pressure. If you haven't, it's very tough, five days

:00:35. > :00:51.of competition. You're found out. That's a great shot. Lovely

:00:52. > :01:05.technique. Open the shoulders and then snap forward. He did it well.

:01:06. > :01:10.He got better once he got some rhythm under his belt. Matt called

:01:11. > :01:14.it right. He is seated for parallel bars. Formally that do a better job

:01:15. > :01:18.than this. -- normally When there is one day of

:01:19. > :01:21.competition. If you haven't been getting through your routine, that

:01:22. > :01:27.bit of adrenaline will get you through. But now, if you are having

:01:28. > :01:39.to work on adrenaline it is not going to work.

:01:40. > :01:45.Well, today was not my day, he says. Certainly Wilson's day. If you lock

:01:46. > :01:52.a his build, he is massively strong in comparison to the two gymnasts he

:01:53. > :01:55.is sitting beside. Well. Witness the skill and quality of the parallel

:01:56. > :02:02.bar work from the home nation, if I tell you that this lad here, Fraynes

:02:03. > :02:08.from Scotland came second at the British Championships from this

:02:09. > :02:18.Pete. -- Frank Baines. Get yourself excited for his

:02:19. > :02:24.performance. Judging deliberating the score.

:02:25. > :02:40.On difficulty and maybe the connections. It is 12.4.

:02:41. > :02:45.For Luke Wadsworth. Frank Baines has a real chance to

:02:46. > :02:50.get up into the top three. This is one of his favourite pieces of

:02:51. > :02:53.apparatus. Second at British Championships, this year. Frank

:02:54. > :03:03.Baines for Scotland, goes for a medal.

:03:04. > :03:09.That is a lovely smooth start. They open that shoulder angle very

:03:10. > :03:21.strongly. Accurately. That time he hit the one

:03:22. > :03:26.rail. And again. Very good technique. Good in the

:03:27. > :03:31.Healy. Slight fumble earlier orange but now she back in control of

:03:32. > :03:38.handstands, there is a double pike, which is absolutely nailed. Just a

:03:39. > :03:43.few flutters in the opening skills, but great stuff.

:03:44. > :03:52.Absolute quality and a treat to watch. He is the gymnast's gymnast,

:03:53. > :03:56.his skills are perfect. He is what every coach wants to be Abe to coach

:03:57. > :04:01.and what every gymnast wants to look line. When you are perfect like that

:04:02. > :04:09.it is a mentality to be perfect all time. But that routine he managed

:04:10. > :04:18.it. You see one of the flutters at

:04:19. > :04:23.start. He recovered to the one rail. Now a 6.2 difficulty scoring

:04:24. > :04:27.qualification, they are just look like discussion as they came off, as

:04:28. > :04:35.though maybe you think he left something out. Look at those feet.

:04:36. > :04:40.Locked together. Beautifully tight. Really never loses than theion.

:04:41. > :04:46.Never loses the extension through the angles. And a fabulous double

:04:47. > :04:54.pike to wrap it up. Just like you say, text book. His toes have turned

:04:55. > :04:58.up now, just ready for landing The height he got there, the time he got

:04:59. > :05:04.level with the bars Just to split hair, it is a shame at start there

:05:05. > :05:09.were a couple of flutters. Baines is in third at the moment. 14.866 with

:05:10. > :05:16.three to go. He locked as though he felt that was

:05:17. > :05:27.fair score. -- looked.

:05:28. > :05:31.We saw Kevin Lytwyn's huge strength combinations yesterday in the rings

:05:32. > :05:36.final. He had some beautiful swing as well, and the floor to his work.

:05:37. > :05:41.And he will be looking to exactly that here, in the parallel bar

:05:42. > :05:49.final. A bit of a struggle but he made the

:05:50. > :06:01.handstand shape. Nice and high. The tip up. Grol "yes". ".

:06:02. > :06:21.That skill is 30-year-olds old and it is still a challenge. The double

:06:22. > :06:26.pike. He meant business. He did and he forced his way through that, and

:06:27. > :06:32.it was a very different approach, by the Canadian there. He did very

:06:33. > :06:37.well. Gold in the last final. Not quite the pure body line but really

:06:38. > :06:44.good fighter. The difficult routine as well.

:06:45. > :06:53.He is a big old boy, isn't he. Strong.

:06:54. > :07:01.He can swing, that was super high. In fact it has changed a bit. It was

:07:02. > :07:05.just about hand sense -- handstands, now it is handstands and Svens is

:07:06. > :07:12.adds you need to be able to show that perfect shape while you are on

:07:13. > :07:14.top of the bar. -- and swings. He had to pull back a

:07:15. > :07:27.bit. Just the shuffle of the hands, just

:07:28. > :07:31.off there. That is why it was so high. You saw

:07:32. > :07:40.the hips in, the shoulders ex tended and he got the reaction of the pike,

:07:41. > :07:51.which really did loft him up. Good stuff. Kevin Lytwyn, a score of

:07:52. > :07:55.14.033, he is in fourth. So Nile Wilson leads with Max Whitlock,

:07:56. > :08:07.Silver Medal position at the moment. 15.066. And in third at the moment

:08:08. > :08:12.Frank Baines from Scotland 14.866. Tsukahara from Australia.

:08:13. > :08:13.37-year-old. The penultimate gymnast to go.

:08:14. > :08:18.37-year-old. The penultimate gymnast to In this final. And then Scotsman

:08:19. > :08:24.Daniel purr solicitor will round off the final.

:08:25. > :08:29.Broad of shoulder. Narrow hip. -- Daniel Purvis. A fabulous

:08:30. > :08:33.undersomersault. He missed that and Chris was saying about handstand f

:08:34. > :08:38.you don't hit it you could lose the value of the elm, so that could make

:08:39. > :08:44.a huge difference. The double tuck with kick out. His

:08:45. > :08:50.upper arms hit his body was straight, which is very very good.

:08:51. > :08:56.There you go. There is the Healy. Full turn from the forward swing.

:08:57. > :09:08.Tiny bit short on both those elements. One foot at a time. You

:09:09. > :09:11.can see, the class of this map, lovely double pike. Few errors in

:09:12. > :09:14.terms of lovely double pike. Few errors in

:09:15. > :09:17.terms handstands but he is such a beautiful performer to watch. Again,

:09:18. > :09:24.another one that got better as the radio tone went on, the first few

:09:25. > :09:39.bits were not so well performed. Once he got into the radio tone,

:09:40. > :09:43.that is a lovely double somersault. See him waiting for the slight

:09:44. > :09:51.bounce. Steadies it before he does next element.

:09:52. > :09:57.There it is. The full push turn on one arm.

:09:58. > :10:06.Knees tightened together. Have to open out at exactly the right

:10:07. > :10:12.moment. You can see he needs those upper arm supports, to make sure he

:10:13. > :10:14.doesn't wear his skin away. Another very stylish gymnast. Times

:10:15. > :10:40.that so well. He is enjoying a new lease of life

:10:41. > :10:45.is Tsukahara. Yes, now, really laxed flow. When you are so experienced

:10:46. > :10:49.you have been there, done it done three Olympics you go out and do you

:10:50. > :10:56.can. He has been a value member of the Australian team Very. I would

:10:57. > :11:04.think she is a good role model for the gymnasts to follow. Daniel

:11:05. > :11:10.Purvis, the last gymnast to go for Scotland, Scotland guaranteed a

:11:11. > :11:17.medal. 14.Is 33. Tsukahara -- 14.133. Tsukahara is in fourth. So,

:11:18. > :11:23.what can Dan Purvis do here? We know he has the difficulty. He got a

:11:24. > :11:33.bronze on rings yesterday. In qualification he put up a 6.5

:11:34. > :11:39.difficulty. Lovely, through it. Salto to

:11:40. > :11:45.handstand. A bit deep early, but he managed it

:11:46. > :11:53.well. Locking out nicely for handstand.

:11:54. > :11:58.Double tuck. He is goes well. That difficulty will stand him in good

:11:59. > :12:08.stead. If he can keep the rhythm going. Nice giant.

:12:09. > :12:15.Straddle. Still the swing is pure. Healy, I tell you this is a very

:12:16. > :12:21.very strong bid for a medal. Oh! That is God. Just a little skip

:12:22. > :12:29.back. Well done Dan Purvis. What a super performance. That is so good

:12:30. > :12:35.the score to beat 14.866 that would knock his compatriot out of third

:12:36. > :12:41.place. If he is going for gold. I am so delighted the see Dan Purvis

:12:42. > :12:46.really perform well on P bar, he has been in and out this season, but he

:12:47. > :12:51.has improved, as this Championships has gone along.

:12:52. > :12:59.Again, he is a hugely stylish gymnast. Legs locked together.

:13:00. > :13:03.Wonderful handstand shapes. Straight arms in his swings.

:13:04. > :13:08.So close. Come on Mitch. arms in his swings.

:13:09. > :13:14.reckon? Get off the fence! I have never been on the fence in my life.

:13:15. > :13:21.I think he is going to get into, he could take Whitlock. It will be very

:13:22. > :13:26.close. He could. He had a 6.5 in qualification for his difficulty

:13:27. > :13:30.score, and Wilson has 6.4. So if they reckon he performed it better

:13:31. > :13:35.than Wilson he is there. I don't think he had the style edge

:13:36. > :13:42.of Wilson, but who care, it was a great performance an for him, it is

:13:43. > :13:51.a medal for sure Well, he has done it. Good call Chris. Daniel Purvis,

:13:52. > :13:59.15.533. Brilliant stuff. Well deserved.

:14:00. > :14:05.And Scotland are going crazy. Nile Wilson, showing maturity there, the

:14:06. > :14:10.way he came up to congratulate him. They are ecstatic, what Dan Purvis,

:14:11. > :14:16.a gold, and they are saving every second. Frank Baines is sharing the

:14:17. > :14:21.joy. How fantastic and Dan sort of said to the youngsters there, this

:14:22. > :14:27.isn't your spot yet, mate. I'm going to come out, I am going to show you

:14:28. > :14:43.I am still here. That was fabulous. Well it's the closest I have seen

:14:44. > :14:50.Dan Purvis come to tears. He did it. Max Whitlock takes the bronze, but

:14:51. > :14:55.the day on parallel bars belongs to Dan Purvis and there could not,

:14:56. > :15:03.Christine, have been a more popular medal. No, really delighted. Daniel

:15:04. > :15:16.Purvis and Daniel Keatings winning a gold apiece, making it a special

:15:17. > :15:23.Championships for Scotland. Well, delight from the Scottish crowd,

:15:24. > :15:27.after a brilliant performance from Dan Purvis to take gold on

:15:28. > :15:32.channelling apparatus. How delightful to see Daniel Purvis's

:15:33. > :15:35.face there when that gold medal was shown, first place. I don't think he

:15:36. > :15:39.thought he had done enough. I thought he was going to sneak into

:15:40. > :15:44.second, but the reaction on his face, it was almost like, oh my God

:15:45. > :15:48.I have done it. But he, it has been a tough couple of years for him, and

:15:49. > :15:54.do you know, another medal for Scotland. We are going to hear the

:15:55. > :15:59.Flower of Scotland and the Hydro will go mad. For Whitlock to lay

:16:00. > :16:03.down the gauntlet in the way he did and for Nile Wilson... I think all

:16:04. > :16:05.our home nation and for Nile Wilson... I think all

:16:06. > :16:09.our home gymnasts are on fire. They are pushing each other, they are

:16:10. > :16:14.stay saying than on that is not your spot for I can want to go one

:16:15. > :16:20.better. That can only be a good thing for British gymnastics. There

:16:21. > :16:26.is confirmation Daniel Purvis is Commonwealth champion on parallel

:16:27. > :16:34.bars. This is the point, 15s is world

:16:35. > :16:38.final. So to have three score there's. Exactly Nile being a junior

:16:39. > :16:43.and he's coming into it, he's not fazed one bit. He went out there as

:16:44. > :16:47.if to say, oh, I'm just training. That was it. Off he That is went. A

:16:48. > :16:51.message to the critics who think that maybe the Commonwealth Games

:16:52. > :16:54.isn't that much of a challenge, but that, I mean... The challenge is

:16:55. > :16:58.between our home nation gymnasts. The Scottish and English, they're

:16:59. > :17:02.constantly pushing each other. It's going to really help our team

:17:03. > :17:04.performance come this year's World It says Championships. A lot for

:17:05. > :17:06.Frank Baines to produce the It says Championships. A lot for

:17:07. > :17:12.Frank Baines to produce routine he did and came fourth. Exactly. I was

:17:13. > :17:16.so pleased for him. He's had a few mistakes through this championships,

:17:17. > :17:20.but the fact he manage aid clean routine, yes, it didn't bring him

:17:21. > :17:24.home a medal, but still bar to go This is yet. The thing, if you think

:17:25. > :17:30.that was exciting, goodness me, we still have the women's floor to come

:17:31. > :17:33.and also the high bar as well. The Proclaimers echo around this arena

:17:34. > :17:37.for Dan Purvis, who has just taken gold in the parallel bars final.

:17:38. > :17:42.Join us shortly for the women's floor and the men's high bar. We

:17:43. > :17:45.can't wait. Fantastic scenes once again. You wait 12 years for a

:17:46. > :17:48.second Scottish gold and two come along in two days! Sensational

:17:49. > :17:53.stuff. As the guys were pointing out, it is world class gymnastics

:17:54. > :17:56.that you are seeing, brilliant to watch, again, this afternoon. Now

:17:57. > :18:00.there's plenty on the go all around the Commonwealth venues. The boxing

:18:01. > :18:05.has stopped for the moment. The evening session will begin again at

:18:06. > :18:09.6. 30pm. This is BBC Three. It's the second semifinal of the women's

:18:10. > :18:14.hockey. New Zealand facing England. England one up in what is a key

:18:15. > :18:17.match there. The black sticks hoping for a showdown once again with

:18:18. > :18:22.Australia in tomorrow's final. England are having their say. Don't

:18:23. > :18:26.forget, also you'll see on the red button, there is the table tennis.

:18:27. > :18:32.It's a very busy day there of Mitched doubles and -- mixed doubles

:18:33. > :18:35.and indeed singles. That's what is happening. We have seen some

:18:36. > :18:39.fantastic stories and heard them as well at these Games. You know, one

:18:40. > :18:51.of them was a couple of nights doing in -- ago. It involved the nation of

:18:52. > :19:01.Kiribas. He's hoisted 200 kilos above his head and set off what must

:19:02. > :19:08.have been the greatest celebration ever. This is the first medal ever

:19:09. > :19:12.for Kiribati. It was gold. There were joyous scenes on the podium and

:19:13. > :19:16.a moving moment there after, as we finally got to hear the Kiribati

:19:17. > :19:44.National Anthem. Here he is, with us in the studio, a

:19:45. > :19:51.sporting legend of the South Pacific. Congratulations. Can you

:19:52. > :20:00.tell me what it was like two days ago, over in the armadillo for you?

:20:01. > :20:05.It feel like happy. You were in paradise. Yes. Have you had messages

:20:06. > :20:19.from back home? This is such an important moment for your nation,

:20:20. > :20:23.what have people been saying to you? Too many messages, because I did

:20:24. > :20:28.really well, for them big, for them like first gold for my First gold

:20:29. > :20:32.country. In anything for your country, first medal in anything

:20:33. > :20:36.Yeah. It's a wonderful story. I know that four years ago in Delhi, you

:20:37. > :20:40.were fourth. You were so close to the medals. Mouch work have you had

:20:41. > :20:46.to do -- how much work have you had to do to make this gold happen? For

:20:47. > :20:51.me, four years I've been training for this Commonwealth. I really want

:20:52. > :20:58.to win gold. My dream come true. And you had to stay away from home. All

:20:59. > :21:06.of Yes. That time? Yes. Why w did you train? New Caledonia. My coach,

:21:07. > :21:10.I already thanked my coach. He helped me and his wife. You haven't

:21:11. > :21:16.been home for four years to try and pursue this Gold Medal? Yeah. How

:21:17. > :21:24.much have you missed home? Four years. A long time. Yes. A long

:21:25. > :21:28.time, I've been far from home. South seas islanders are remarkably strong

:21:29. > :21:36.and there is a fantastic tradition of weightlifting, both in your

:21:37. > :21:40.country and also in Nauru. I know your training partner won silver.

:21:41. > :21:49.Yeah, I was helping him in the competition. With my trainer partner

:21:50. > :21:57.together, he also win Gold Medal. How important is this medal for

:21:58. > :22:02.sport in Kiribati? It's going to be my people there, they so proud.

:22:03. > :22:08.You're going home soon? Yes. You will get a chance to celebrate with

:22:09. > :22:12.rch. -- everyone. I know singing a dancing is a big tradition. What

:22:13. > :22:16.kind of songs will they be singing about you and could you play one?

:22:17. > :22:19.Just to let you know, this man has many strings to his bows and many

:22:20. > :22:22.strings on the guitar here, because he's a brilliant musician too.

:22:23. > :22:30.David, would you like to give us a blast of what they'll be singing

:22:31. > :22:32.about you? OK. What's this song? Like car batty is my country. OK,

:22:33. > :23:15.take it away. MUSIC

:23:16. > :23:25.You've brought a tear to my eye! Thank you. David, I think you've

:23:26. > :23:30.just taught me they speak gilbertese. Many, many

:23:31. > :23:35.congratulations to you. Thank you so much for coming in. There you go.

:23:36. > :23:39.First ever medal for Kiribati. Plenty of other medals being won by

:23:40. > :23:43.the home nations here. We are heading back to the Hydro now,

:23:44. > :23:48.because it's the women's floor right now.

:23:49. > :23:52.Just before the women enter the arena to compete in the floor, it's

:23:53. > :23:57.medals time. Yet again for the home nations, Max Whitlock, he takes the

:23:58. > :24:06.bronze in the men's parallel bars final. Nile Wilson steps up to

:24:07. > :24:16.receive the silver and we'll hand over to Mitch. Nile Wilson led for

:24:17. > :24:29.most of this competition. Silver his just reward for a man with a great

:24:30. > :24:39.future. So mature. He will do great things for England and Great

:24:40. > :25:47.Britain. Great performance. Hold onto your

:25:48. > :25:50.hats Dan Purvis, Gold Medal to add to his silver:

:25:51. > :26:00.So solid gold for Dan Purvis of Scotland.

:26:01. > :26:15.Ladies and gentleman, the National Anthem of Scotland.

:26:16. > :28:12.What a moment for Dan Purvis. And also, we've got to talk about Nile

:28:13. > :28:24.Wilson as well. And Max Whitlock there. Representing their countries,

:28:25. > :28:27.but normally united as one in the Great British team. What a battle on

:28:28. > :28:32.these individual finals between them and this was the thing because

:28:33. > :28:36.coming into these championships, it was all talk about whether it would

:28:37. > :28:40.be Scotland or England and yes, the other team final, fair enough.

:28:41. > :28:44.England had quite a large win over them there, with nearly ten marks.

:28:45. > :28:47.But when it came down to the individuals now, I think as far as

:28:48. > :28:53.gold medals are concerned, England got the floor, then ewe have Pommel

:28:54. > :28:58.Horse, Scotland. Then P bars Scotland. It's all to play for on

:28:59. > :29:04.high bar now. I think it's let's play fair and have two each. Oh,

:29:05. > :29:08.yes. Just an absolute delight to see the home nations up there on the

:29:09. > :29:15.medal Ross trum, but the -- Ross strum, the quality of the

:29:16. > :29:19.performances in the final. That's been the same over the a couple of

:29:20. > :29:24.finals. On the floor you had Max produced a world-class routine. Then

:29:25. > :29:30.the pommel final was unbelievable. It wouldn't have looked out of place

:29:31. > :29:39.on the Olympic stage. All three of them scoring over 15 in the P They

:29:40. > :29:43.are bars. Wandering beside the high bar at the moment. There's another

:29:44. > :29:47.final before the high bar final, that is the women's floor. So while

:29:48. > :29:52.we let the lads have their photos taken and make their way down to Ore

:29:53. > :29:56.who will chat with them shortly, let's look forward to the floor

:29:57. > :30:02.final. Wunts again, England's Claudia Fragapane is going to be

:30:03. > :30:15.going in this final. She didn't have much fun earlier on. Her routine

:30:16. > :30:18.itself has great. But you have to do required elments. If there's a

:30:19. > :30:22.break, they can say it's not counted. Straight away they take the

:30:23. > :30:26.start value right down. That's why she missed out on a medal, even

:30:27. > :30:31.though as an onlooker, we thought it was a great Wow think routine.

:30:32. > :30:35.Surely that's a medal. Georgina Hockenhull, for Wales, Christine's

:30:36. > :30:39.gymnast was so classy in her performance, wasn't she? She's had

:30:40. > :30:43.three performances on beam and all three of them are steady and

:30:44. > :30:47.controlled. You just felt for her for this competition, you wanted her

:30:48. > :30:52.to do what she did in the all around and in qualification. To with stand

:30:53. > :30:55.that pressure, she knew if she stayed on, she would be in the

:30:56. > :31:00.table. And her team-mate is on floor as well. How will she fare? She's a

:31:01. > :31:03.great floor worker. She's very artistic. She will get the crude

:31:04. > :31:08.clapping along. She's very elegant to watch. Yeah, just having a look

:31:09. > :31:17.behind me. The lads are making their way down now. Shortly, we will chat

:31:18. > :31:21.with them. Hannah Whelan, bronze medallist in 2012, consistency is

:31:22. > :31:26.the key with her. This floor routine she knows inside out. She could were

:31:27. > :31:30.form it at 3am. Which is kind of is here with the schedule. As soon as

:31:31. > :31:34.you see her walk onto the floor, she gets straight into character and the

:31:35. > :31:41.judges love to watch She'll be it. In the mid. Field. -- in the middle

:31:42. > :31:51.of the field. I think the lads are now wandering into position. We can

:31:52. > :31:58.go straight down to Daniel Purvis, Max Whitlock and Nile Wilson.

:31:59. > :32:01.If we thought we were in for a treat yesterday with the pommelhorse

:32:02. > :32:06.final, that was something special and we have the guys with us. What

:32:07. > :32:12.did I tell you yesterday? You have a clean sweep, now Commonwealth Gold

:32:13. > :32:17.as well as bronze and silver. Such an enjoyable final, we had fantastic

:32:18. > :32:23.routines. I had to go out and do my best and fortunately, I got the Gold

:32:24. > :32:28.medals so I am pleased. The look on your face when you came off the

:32:29. > :32:33.apparatus, had you done enough? I was very happy, it has been a bit of

:32:34. > :32:37.a rough week, up and down. I did not want to get my hopes up and I am

:32:38. > :32:46.just happy to compete, this is a massive bonus. We saw done Purvis

:32:47. > :32:53.winning a medal yesterday, two in two days, what was it like to hear

:32:54. > :32:57.the flower of Scotland? So happy, I was welling up. I have my family and

:32:58. > :33:03.the Scottish crowd behind me, I felt so proud, it was a fantastic day.

:33:04. > :33:08.I will let you go, everybody here was excited to see you so well done.

:33:09. > :33:14.Max, we will talk to you in a second because this guy has a horizontalbar

:33:15. > :33:18.final. You are in that position for so long, did you think you had done

:33:19. > :33:24.enough? I thought I had, to be honest. My routine was -- down's

:33:25. > :33:29.routine was amazing and I am happy for him and I also have a clean

:33:30. > :33:34.sweep. This has been one of the best weeks of my life. I have the high

:33:35. > :33:40.bar now and maybe I can get another medal. The commentary team were

:33:41. > :33:44.saying three scores above 15 was world class. Well Championships in

:33:45. > :33:50.October, when you deliver in the world stage? Definitely. 3.15 in the

:33:51. > :33:58.parallel bars is something we have never done before. -- three

:33:59. > :34:05.fifteenths. It feels so good, especially being a junior, very

:34:06. > :34:08.happy. You have the high bar to do first, congratulations.

:34:09. > :34:15.Max, five medals from the Commonwealth Games. Congratulations.

:34:16. > :34:19.Thank you, I am so happy. I was looking forward to this final. So

:34:20. > :34:24.happy to finish the competition with a bronze medal and with a good

:34:25. > :34:28.routine. It was good fun. I was first up in the bars so I was

:34:29. > :34:36.nervous but I got the other athletes competing which was amazing. Not for

:34:37. > :34:40.the first time, but have three guys on top of the podium, three British

:34:41. > :34:48.guys, it something special. It really is and it is improving

:34:49. > :34:53.rapidly. I hope we can keep it up. It is quite tiring but hopefully we

:34:54. > :34:57.can pick-up again and I am looking forward to it and this gives us

:34:58. > :35:03.confidence towards the World Championships. You have done your

:35:04. > :35:08.bit, put your feet up, well done. In the meantime, the floor finalists

:35:09. > :35:14.have been lining up. We have Kirsten Beckett first, then Jessica Hogg for

:35:15. > :35:22.Wales, Lauren Mitchell, Stefanie Merkle, Hannah Whelan, Claudia

:35:23. > :35:25.Fragapane, Ellie Black, and Charlotte Sullivan for New Zealand.

:35:26. > :35:32.First, it is the 18-year-old, Kirsten Beckett.

:35:33. > :35:43.A very powerful gymnast. The last opportunity for them to impress.

:35:44. > :35:45.Very nice for twisting double back but she will lose marks. In doubt of

:35:46. > :35:55.the floor area. Floats on the jumps. Double Arabian, that was well

:35:56. > :36:14.performed. Lovely turning week. The jumps and

:36:15. > :36:23.the tumbles added to the difficulty level. Good landings ensured the

:36:24. > :36:28.execution score is high. -- will ensure.

:36:29. > :36:38.She can leap well, and they split. -- a split.

:36:39. > :36:48.Quickly into this next tumble. Double touch. She makes the landing.

:36:49. > :36:52.Great start for this final. Kirsten Beckett.

:36:53. > :37:03.Indeed, a great start. She has been consistent all the way through. That

:37:04. > :37:08.was more like it. Save your best till last. She struggled on the

:37:09. > :37:14.individual all-around competition. Three days of the competition, some

:37:15. > :37:21.of the gymnasts have struggled. Interesting technique, half turning,

:37:22. > :37:32.front somersault and half turn out. -- a half turn in. She is very

:37:33. > :37:37.powerful, a nice relaxed style. She is one of the gymnasts we identified

:37:38. > :37:43.as, if only she could put it together. She was, and I think she

:37:44. > :37:49.did put it together in the first day of competition. But you need a great

:37:50. > :37:56.deal of stamina to be able to fulfil a schedule like this. That is the

:37:57. > :38:00.double Arabian. She was very happy with her performance. The Arabian

:38:01. > :38:08.was very secure and very competent. Yes, she married nicely but tumbling

:38:09. > :38:13.with good weeks, it was not too taxing. -- jumps. There was an

:38:14. > :38:29.error. Maybe a deduction. Kirsten Beckett scores 13.794

:38:30. > :38:39.execution. A little bit costly, those mistakes. -- 13 .79 four

:38:40. > :38:43.execution. Jessica Hogg, from Wales. 18 years

:38:44. > :38:52.old. She is a very nice floor work. --

:38:53. > :39:06.worker. Very good tumbling. Twisting double

:39:07. > :39:36.back, and look at the landing. Another big tumble. Double pike, she

:39:37. > :39:44.really knows how to land. Good height and split.

:39:45. > :40:27.Another big tumble, so important to finish with a D difficulty. A big

:40:28. > :40:36.double took. Little step, very nicely done. -- took.

:40:37. > :40:48.What a performance from Jessica Hogg! The Welsh crowd are in. What a

:40:49. > :40:54.moment for her. That was a really good performance, a green landing,

:40:55. > :40:59.big high tumbling. And lovely moments. She sells the routine, she

:41:00. > :41:02.is a performer. Some of the young gymnasts are not, that was a

:41:03. > :41:19.superhigh twisting double back. She is a junior international. She

:41:20. > :41:24.has had some injury so has not quite made it into the senior ranks at

:41:25. > :41:33.British level. But here, for Wales, performing beautifully. She could be

:41:34. > :41:40.a bit of a challenge here. These landings were so secure. She is so

:41:41. > :41:42.high, so she can see the floor and she can steady herself ready to make

:41:43. > :42:01.the landing. This is the final tumble. A double

:42:02. > :42:03.back is a D. Most of the gymnasts here have tumbled so well in this

:42:04. > :42:19.floor. She scores 13.166. For the moment,

:42:20. > :42:25.Jessica Hogg is leading this women's floor final. A bit down on

:42:26. > :42:32.difficulty, 4.9. Lauren Mitchell with her second

:42:33. > :42:41.final of the day. She came in sixth position in beam. She has been World

:42:42. > :42:47.Champion in floor. She really will need to be at her best. She powers

:42:48. > :42:59.through the tumbles. Twisting double back, she does just that.

:43:00. > :43:11.Another big tumble, double Arabian. But she jumps out of floor area --

:43:12. > :43:15.the floor area, that will be costly. She has performed that so

:43:16. > :43:22.successfully in beam. Very individually done.

:43:23. > :43:38.They have to dance into the tumble and into the corner. Well

:43:39. > :44:05.controlled, that front somersault. Big series of leaps. Straight into

:44:06. > :44:11.the double pike. That is the best lending she has had.

:44:12. > :44:18.Certainly having a better time of it than she had in beam before. She

:44:19. > :44:27.scored 14.1 on qualifications so she is more than capable of aim medal.

:44:28. > :44:33.As a World Champion. -- a medal. Her difficulty in qualification was 5.9.

:44:34. > :44:39.4.9, Jessica Hogg's score. She did not perform it as well. The twisting

:44:40. > :44:46.double back was good, but it was quite a big jump back. I think she

:44:47. > :44:53.just kept on their heels. She does a double Arabian here. -- her heels.

:44:54. > :44:58.This jump gives her a bonus. She started to try to jump but she

:44:59. > :45:07.jumped out at the floor area so she loses the bonus and the 0.3 for a

:45:08. > :45:13.step and 0.1 out of an area. It was 2010 that she won the Championships.

:45:14. > :45:19.She has been injured since. She competed in 2012. A lot of gymnasts

:45:20. > :45:25.to competed in 2012 in the Olympics took time out after, some of them

:45:26. > :45:29.have come back, like Lauren, it is never so easy to get back to where

:45:30. > :45:38.you are. Even Louis Smith found that. Times have moved on, as well.

:45:39. > :45:51.Two years is a long time in sport. Slight rule changes. She has been

:45:52. > :45:56.there and she has done it. I am sure she will go into the lead at the

:45:57. > :46:01.moment. Jessica Hogg is a score of 13.166. -- has a score. It has got

:46:02. > :46:15.to be 13 and higher. I think she will have maintained her

:46:16. > :46:24.5.9 difficulty. So although she will have deductions, I would expect that

:46:25. > :46:30.score to hold up. As you said, 13 and above, probably.

:46:31. > :46:43.The whole of the women's team from Australia were a mature team.

:46:44. > :46:52.It's certainly a beatable score. It is. Both the English girls will have

:46:53. > :46:55.a go at that. Stephanie Merkle from Canada.

:46:56. > :46:59.This is her first Commonwealth Games.

:47:00. > :47:03.She qualified with the fourth highest score of 13. 6336789

:47:04. > :47:44.-- 13. 13.633. She's landing very well. Landings

:47:45. > :48:14.are all important from the judging perspective.

:48:15. > :48:36.She managed to keep that power all the way to the finish. She did. They

:48:37. > :48:43.were good landings. Quite good leaps as well. That will be a bit of a

:48:44. > :48:48.bid. Fresh, as you say, from a bit of a rest. It showed in her

:48:49. > :48:53.tumbling. It did. She will have had two days without competition.

:48:54. > :48:57.Whereas many of these gymnasts, this is their fifth consecutive day of

:48:58. > :49:00.competition. Great full twisting double. Plenty

:49:01. > :49:17.of power. Really pulling very hard through the

:49:18. > :49:28.flick. Standing up as early as possible to set up the twists.

:49:29. > :49:32.Very fine triple twist, sorry two-and-a-half twists, beg your

:49:33. > :49:42.pardon. Lost the legs a little bit. Punches well out of it.

:49:43. > :49:55.Plenty of good, fresh tumbling from her.

:49:56. > :50:01.There's the triple. She's looking for a score over 13. 833 to go into

:50:02. > :50:10.the lead. But it's second. Down a bit on that difficulty. It

:50:11. > :50:12.was difficulty that cost her. Jessica Hogg the only gymnast with

:50:13. > :50:25.an execution score in the eights. That will be costly, stepped two

:50:26. > :50:53.feet out. Lovely and Supple. Performs really

:50:54. > :51:29.nicely. She marries expressive dance, big

:51:30. > :51:54.tumbling, double pike somersault. Hannah Whelan for England and she

:51:55. > :51:58.would have been relying on the execution score. So, because she

:51:59. > :52:03.doesn't have the difficulty there, with the big step out of the area,

:52:04. > :52:10.that's costly for her. The other two tumbles had steps as well. The night

:52:11. > :52:15.of the individual all-around she was absolutely nailed every landing, but

:52:16. > :52:20.0. 1 on each makes a Lovely blend difference. Of choreography and

:52:21. > :52:28.acrobatics. Nicely put together, lovely routine really, shame for the

:52:29. > :52:34.little errors. That's got to be at least, if they want to be unkind,

:52:35. > :52:40.five really because she wandered three steps and out of the area.

:52:41. > :52:48.It's a lovely, mature performance. Really expresses the routine. She

:52:49. > :52:54.goes with the music. But she hasn't got the huge tumbles. So she does

:52:55. > :53:00.need to be precise. 5. 5 the difficulty. If you think Lauren

:53:01. > :53:02.Mitchell was on six for difficulty. Have you to have. 5 better execution

:53:03. > :53:14.score. She can do it. Again that little adjustment on the

:53:15. > :53:22.double pike, still impressive, though.

:53:23. > :53:36.She's encouraging her team-mate. It's fourth for Hannah Whelan.

:53:37. > :53:41.Well, if there was ever a piece of apparatus for Claudia Fragapane for

:53:42. > :53:53.impress on, it's this. She looks focussed and she'll need

:53:54. > :54:20.to be for this first huge tumble. A double straight, she just made

:54:21. > :54:48.that look so easy. Such a clever routine, it brings out

:54:49. > :55:14.the best in her. She just needs to be precise.

:55:15. > :55:21.She is, she's made the landing! There's the smile. Surely, it's a

:55:22. > :55:27.golden floor routine for a golden girl? Super energy. Super

:55:28. > :55:31.projection. Super performance. When you think that is the third time in

:55:32. > :55:38.this championship she's performed that routine, the tumbles are so

:55:39. > :55:43.difficult. She makes them just look easy, but they are such huge

:55:44. > :55:47.tumbles. She made history by winning the all-around, the first time an

:55:48. > :55:56.English gymnast has won the individual all around. Absolutely

:55:57. > :56:01.brilliant. The energy. The energy she had throughout the whole

:56:02. > :56:05.routine! Sparky and efficient. Look at this, not for the faint hearted,

:56:06. > :56:09.full twist and a double straight. The sell tumble as well, I don't

:56:10. > :56:15.know if we're going to see it, it was amazing. She sort of almost

:56:16. > :56:20.saunters into it as well. It's not even like, it's her second tumble

:56:21. > :56:25.and she doesn't belt flat out. She's so efficient on the take-off. Hips

:56:26. > :56:33.open. The way she got her shoulders and chest up first, superben

:56:34. > :56:38.technique and plonked it down. Not a flicker. Do you know, I think she

:56:39. > :56:43.enjoys the routine. She looks like she enjoys the routine. That is

:56:44. > :56:53.really important, if you're really going to be a great champion. I love

:56:54. > :56:58.this. Yes, her coach Helen Potter, has been so clever, she's not

:56:59. > :57:04.elegant, Claudia, she would never work to Swan Lake and they've chosen

:57:05. > :57:10.something that's so suited to her physique and personality. What a

:57:11. > :57:19.personality! All over her face, brilliant.

:57:20. > :57:26.There's mum and dad. The flag wavers. Claudia is the middle

:57:27. > :57:44.daughter of five girls. Claudia Fragapane 14. 541 - she's in

:57:45. > :57:48.the lead! Surely, she cannot be touched. I don't think she can. I

:57:49. > :58:00.think that's the Gold Medal performance.

:58:01. > :58:12.Ellie Black, the penultimate gymnast.

:58:13. > :59:04.She changed that to double twist rather than double pike. That was a

:59:05. > :59:26.wise change, because she's fallen on the double pike on two occasions.

:59:27. > :59:39.Very difficult combinations. Well she took a gold on beam about an

:59:40. > :59:43.hour or so ago. Maybe just taken it out of her a little bit. Yes, I

:59:44. > :59:48.mean, she's struggled to land these tumbles. The second and third

:59:49. > :59:52.tumbles are massively difficult combinations, run into straight

:59:53. > :59:56.front full round off flip double tuck. It's really difficult work.

:59:57. > :59:59.The two-and-a-half walkout, she's the only gymnast in the world I know

:00:00. > :00:09.doing the two-and-a-half into a walkout. But she just somehow hasn't

:00:10. > :00:16.quite got hold of this floor. Lovely on the double straight. She might

:00:17. > :00:23.have done enough to go into second position. Lauren Mitchell currently

:00:24. > :00:34.holds that position with a score of 13. 833. That was the change. She

:00:35. > :00:41.did double twist instead of double pike. This is the last tumble. This

:00:42. > :00:45.is really a hard complex tumble to achieve. Oh, yeah, to walk out a

:00:46. > :00:48.full twisting front in the straight body position and she walked out

:00:49. > :00:59.well from that two-and-a-half twist as well. She's got some steps.

:01:00. > :01:17.Will it be top three. Just one gymnast left.

:01:18. > :01:21.It's third at the moment. 13. 666. Claudia Fragapane is leading the

:01:22. > :01:33.field. Seven behind her is Lauren Mitchell. ' Ellie Black. -- and

:01:34. > :01:36.inferred, Ellie Black. -- in third place. From New Zealand, this is

:01:37. > :01:52.Charlotte Sullivan. She starts with a good double spin.

:01:53. > :02:03.Leisurely into the triple twist. Well blended. -- landed.

:02:04. > :02:10.More power into the double pike. Not quite so secure in the landings.

:02:11. > :02:28.Nice leaps. Very nice. Two and half twist, she jumps out of

:02:29. > :03:04.it. -- a half. Go to turning jump. -- a good. Very

:03:05. > :03:12.bouncy. Precise. What were we have at the end? -- what will we have.

:03:13. > :03:15.Nice double back. A good solid performance but a bit short on

:03:16. > :03:22.expression if she wants to get into the top marks. She needs 13.666, or

:03:23. > :03:33.better, to get into a better position. She's good 13.633 in

:03:34. > :03:36.qualification. So it is a possibility. Some of the tumbling

:03:37. > :03:47.was very impressive. Quick and light across the four -- floor. Was the

:03:48. > :03:52.choreography up to the tumbling? We have seen some expressive floor

:03:53. > :04:02.routines and it was not the most expressive. She opened with that, a

:04:03. > :04:14.triple. I think it was right round. Plenty of figure. Good double pike.

:04:15. > :04:20.-- plenty of energy. She will not get deductions for a lack of height.

:04:21. > :04:30.The impression for the judges was good in terms of tumbling, nicely

:04:31. > :04:44.landing. 13.666 is the target. Can she do it?

:04:45. > :04:59.13.666 will give her a bronze. No doubt about the Gold, that young

:05:00. > :05:02.lady! Can she move Ellie Black out of runs with that formance? --

:05:03. > :05:17.bronze. Deliberations among the judges. She

:05:18. > :05:26.is the very final gymnast of this Championships for the women.

:05:27. > :05:31.13.033. Execution let her down. In celebration from Claudia Fragapane.

:05:32. > :05:38.-- and celebration. Another Gold from her. Great personality, she

:05:39. > :05:42.loves every minute. A Star is born here.

:05:43. > :05:50.Yes, Claudia Fragapane is definitely a name of these Games. She now has

:05:51. > :05:57.the most Gold medals of a single Games for an Englishwoman in 84

:05:58. > :06:02.years! Remarkable! What a performance from her. Do return

:06:03. > :06:08.shortly and joiners for the high bar final. -- and join us.

:06:09. > :06:15.We will not miss that, fantastic. We are going to the women's hockey,

:06:16. > :06:21.England were beating New Zealand, and what a cracking match. Black

:06:22. > :06:27.sticks for the silver medallists from Delhi, England took the bronze

:06:28. > :06:34.medal last time, this is how it went in the closing stages.

:06:35. > :06:41.New Zealand get underway in the second semifinal in Glasgow, 2014.

:06:42. > :07:01.This is Webster. Excellent tackle. The captain brings the ball out of

:07:02. > :07:05.defence. Now she drives forward. Mickelson. Penalty corner for New

:07:06. > :07:14.Zealand. She has given the penalty corner for

:07:15. > :07:22.not backing off before engaging. Richardson Walsh did not back off

:07:23. > :07:24.before the required time. And it goes over without anybody touching

:07:25. > :07:54.it. into the circle. It is in! England

:07:55. > :07:58.1-0. England have scored, with New Zealand one player on the bench. It

:07:59. > :08:12.is being referred. They are looking for a foot as the

:08:13. > :08:17.ball came across. I thought if it hit the glove and the hand is on the

:08:18. > :08:29.stick, that is part of the stick, but it has to hit a forearm. It is

:08:30. > :08:34.not a fort. -- her foot. I think it is goal.

:08:35. > :08:41.The goal will stand. The goal does stand and it is 1-0 to England.

:08:42. > :08:53.Munching a bit, New Zealand. -- they are lunging. A shot at goal. Over

:08:54. > :08:55.the baseline. Gilbert with the shot. Trying to get the deflection, could

:08:56. > :09:09.not get the goal. Rutherford comes out and saves for

:09:10. > :09:15.New Zealand. The ball is still alive. A shot at goal. Penalty

:09:16. > :09:20.corner for England. 16.5 minutes left in the semifinal. England's

:09:21. > :09:32.first penalty corner of the game, great skills. Lucy Ward trying to

:09:33. > :09:37.get in front. The ball hits Thomson. It is Richardson-Walsh. It is in!

:09:38. > :09:44.Over the top, longer corner. New Zealand breathe a sigh of relief.

:09:45. > :09:52.Richardson-Walsh. I think they are going for a deflection. Great play

:09:53. > :10:05.by mail to send double over the line. -- Naylor. A chance of goal.

:10:06. > :10:11.It is Katie Glynn that has worked so hard for New Zealand. And what a

:10:12. > :10:17.ball game, best piece of place by her without doubt. And Glynn, that

:10:18. > :10:22.is an unbelievable strike with her back to goal. Final play of the

:10:23. > :10:33.semifinal. Unless it goes to the shoot out. Poised and waiting.

:10:34. > :10:38.Richardson-Walsh. It is out of the circle and it is a draw at the end

:10:39. > :10:43.of regulation time. There will be a penalty shoot out.

:10:44. > :10:54.England, off she goes. Rutherford hovering. In it goes for England.

:10:55. > :11:06.That is well played. Possibly could have been a penalty strike. Danson

:11:07. > :11:12.puts it into the empty goal. New Zealand's next.

:11:13. > :11:26.-- New Zealand are next. She has done it. She leaves the ball behind.

:11:27. > :11:35.If she puts this in England go to the final. Rutherford makes a strong

:11:36. > :11:40.stand. She has missed. Hope for New Zealand yet. The drama continues.

:11:41. > :11:52.Stacey Mickelson. A bit of deception. She looks

:11:53. > :11:58.across. It is all over! It is England! They have won the penalty

:11:59. > :12:06.shoot out and they head towards the goal. It has been met deeper who has

:12:07. > :12:13.provided the heroics -- it has been their goalkeeper. The match finishes

:12:14. > :12:18.4-2 after the shoot out. England go through over New Zealand.

:12:19. > :12:25.Congratulations, you are always the target in front of the goal, you

:12:26. > :12:30.must be delighted? Yes, really pleased, it is a team effort and the

:12:31. > :12:37.girls have to score. I just want to stop some goals, massive team effort

:12:38. > :12:41.today and I am delighted. First reactions after that incredible

:12:42. > :12:47.match? My nerves jangling. We always take it to the wire and I am angry

:12:48. > :12:53.because it was my player I was marking his scored. I was so angry.

:12:54. > :12:59.-- who scored. A lapse in concentration. We practised and we

:13:00. > :13:03.trained hard and we have one of the best goalkeepers in the world and

:13:04. > :13:08.the best at penalties so thank goodness for her. The atmosphere was

:13:09. > :13:14.incredible, difficult to believe we were in Glasgow, you had such strong

:13:15. > :13:18.support. Every game, the support has been amazing, such a great venue,

:13:19. > :13:24.the noise comes onto the pitch. The Scotland game was epic, bagpipes and

:13:25. > :13:29.everything, but the crowd were fantastic again today. Australia are

:13:30. > :13:30.strong, three out of four titles. What is

:13:31. > :13:37.strong, three out of four titles. What England's strength Mr Mark --

:13:38. > :13:40.strength? When we played them, we showed we could break them down with

:13:41. > :13:48.pace in the midfield and the forwards. We will have to be very

:13:49. > :13:53.brave and strong and we will have to cut through them. We need to work at

:13:54. > :13:56.that and if we can do that, we will have opportunities, we just have to

:13:57. > :14:01.concentrate. That is England, England against

:14:02. > :14:07.Australia, in the final. In Glasgow Green. The Piper is playing so there

:14:08. > :14:12.is a medal presentation and this is extremely special. Historic to

:14:13. > :14:21.Claudia Fragapane, a fourth Gold. The team title, the all-around fault

:14:22. > :14:27.and this evening, the floor. -- vault. Not since Joyce Canada in the

:14:28. > :14:33.first Games in Hamilton, Canada, in 1930, has a woman achieved four Gold

:14:34. > :14:40.medals in one Games. She is one of four people, the other three -- the

:14:41. > :14:49.other two Richardson-Walsh men. -- the other two of them were men. So

:14:50. > :14:51.she is quite a find at 16 years of age and she deserves another moment

:14:52. > :15:05.in the limelight. Jerusalem will bring out shortly at

:15:06. > :15:07.the Hydro Arena. -- will play out. The gymnasts make their way to the

:15:08. > :15:13.podium. Claudia Fragapane took Gold, Lauren Mitchell from Australia

:15:14. > :15:23.Silver, Ellie Black from Canada runs. We never doubted it. -- the

:15:24. > :15:27.bronze medal. She learned a lot at the European Championships, she made

:15:28. > :15:32.it into the final and she lost a medal. She brought that experience

:15:33. > :15:38.to this competition and she used it for the finals. She has learned

:15:39. > :15:45.quite a bit here because she has had ups and downs. It did not go to plan

:15:46. > :15:55.before. It was almost say that is wrong, I am going to take the title

:15:56. > :16:01.again in the floor. Let's join Mitch and enjoy Claudia Fragapane's Gold

:16:02. > :16:05.medal. Ellie Black steps forward to take

:16:06. > :16:07.the bronze medal. Elegant and graceful gymnast. Capable of great

:16:08. > :16:46.difficulty. The winner of the silver medal,

:16:47. > :16:55.representing Australia, Lauren Mitchell! The vast experience of

:16:56. > :17:01.Lauren Mitchell. She has been part of Australia's greatest moment for a

:17:02. > :17:09.long time. And here she takes a silver medal.

:17:10. > :17:23.What a career she has had, Lauren Mitchell. On the rostrum yet again.

:17:24. > :17:43.Commonwealth champion, with a score of 14.541, representing England,

:17:44. > :17:50.Claudia Fragapane! Take one pinch of sparkle, a sack full of energy and

:17:51. > :17:58.what do you get? Claudia Fragapane. She was magnificent. Huge tumbling

:17:59. > :18:08.ability, wonderful projection, a true floor specialist and not only

:18:09. > :18:12.that, it's her fourth gold medal. She is absolutely captivating and

:18:13. > :18:14.brilliant on the floor. Superb performance. 16 years old, she is

:18:15. > :18:24.just fantastic. Claudia Fragapane. Gold-medallist on

:18:25. > :18:33.the floor. Ladies and gentlemen, the national

:18:34. > :20:03.anthem of England. Let's celebrate our Commonwealth

:20:04. > :20:08.Games medallists! Fantastic performance there from Claudia

:20:09. > :20:14.Fragapane. What the games she has had. Fourth gold medal, brilliant,

:20:15. > :20:22.brilliant, brilliant. And she doesn't half suit the gold medal!

:20:23. > :20:26.Look at that smile, that is a place to look out for for the future. I

:20:27. > :20:33.was having a conversation with Mitch, and he said, a few years ago,

:20:34. > :20:36.he picked you out as a gymnast, in your first senior year of

:20:37. > :20:41.competition. You can just tell, when you come across something that is

:20:42. > :20:45.quite different and special. She is special, she is so talented and she

:20:46. > :20:49.has a great work ethic. When you see her in the gym, should do something

:20:50. > :20:54.and it's not quite right, she is looking at her coach, what can I do

:20:55. > :20:59.to make it better? That's what you need in a gymnast.

:21:00. > :21:06.Let's just remind ourselves. Let's look at her routine. Put us through

:21:07. > :21:19.it from grace and perspective. She is so dynamic, the way she opens

:21:20. > :21:26.there, but she doesn't hesitate, build-up to the tumble, the tumbles,

:21:27. > :21:31.even though so difficult, are still part of the whole routine. She

:21:32. > :21:35.turns, go straight into the next humble. I like the changes they have

:21:36. > :21:39.made to be judging system where you are not allowed to stand in the

:21:40. > :21:46.corner, and this, head, eyes, everything, she is loving this

:21:47. > :21:49.routine. She loves performing it. And I think the rest of the world

:21:50. > :21:53.will be looking at this poor style, because she gets into the corner and

:21:54. > :22:05.then does her dancing, even a bit of dancing. Yes, one of the big things

:22:06. > :22:09.the world of gymnastics is wanted is to bring back some performance into

:22:10. > :22:14.gymnastics. It has become a procession of leaps and tumbles.

:22:15. > :22:18.They wanted to make it a whole performance with the gymnast

:22:19. > :22:22.choosing music that suits them, choosing moves that bring out the

:22:23. > :22:28.best in them. That is what Claudia has got here with the routine. It's

:22:29. > :22:31.very unusual, very different, she's not at the routine. It's very

:22:32. > :22:40.unusual, very different, she's not a genetic to her personality. You will

:22:41. > :22:48.career was 11 years as a senior? It was. So she will be around for some

:22:49. > :22:52.years to come. She is still a baby in gymnastics terms, she has much

:22:53. > :22:57.experience to pick up, but the fact she has started her senior career

:22:58. > :23:06.and picked up four golds, that will give her confidence. Even the size

:23:07. > :23:10.of her, she is absolutely tiny. You could see her with Lauren Mitchell,

:23:11. > :23:15.a full head above her. It is incredible, don't underestimate the

:23:16. > :23:20.power of the little one! They have nicknamed her the pocket rocket. As

:23:21. > :23:25.soon as you let her go, she just flies. From a difficulty

:23:26. > :23:31.perspective, she is working on things we haven't even seen in the

:23:32. > :23:37.gym. All credit has to go back to her home club, still hawks, Rory and

:23:38. > :23:43.Helen have done an amazing job. She is talking to us.

:23:44. > :23:48.Quite simply, she is one of the stars of the games, and to give you

:23:49. > :23:52.an idea of her size, here I am, fired the games, and to give you an

:23:53. > :24:05.idea of her size, here I am, five per and that power! Congratulations.

:24:06. > :24:10.It has been great being here. I'm only 16 and it's just great, coming

:24:11. > :24:17.out here and getting four gold medals, amazing. I don't think you

:24:18. > :24:20.will know this bid to another most decorated Englishwoman at a

:24:21. > :24:28.Commonwealth Games in 84 years. How does that make you feel? Speechless!

:24:29. > :24:33.That's incredible. You seemed to enjoy that. That flaw was just

:24:34. > :24:38.marvellous. I thought, it was my last time competing here, just go

:24:39. > :24:43.out there and enjoy it, it has been incredible. Now we have got used to

:24:44. > :24:47.seeing you collect gold medals, we will start expecting it, we have the

:24:48. > :24:52.World Championships coming up. I am expecting to get a floor final at

:24:53. > :24:59.the worlds and then hopefully get into the top but if not, I know how

:25:00. > :25:02.hard to work. It has been quite incredible watching you for the past

:25:03. > :25:06.few days, congratulations again. Thank you!

:25:07. > :25:15.It's one thing doing the routine in training and another delivering on

:25:16. > :25:18.the competition stage. It is, I know the girls have been working and the

:25:19. > :25:22.coach has had an eye on them, they have been doing a lot of practice

:25:23. > :25:26.competition, they have been set challenges so they are not just

:25:27. > :25:30.doing a floor routine, they have to do a floor routine with no steps.

:25:31. > :25:37.They have worked on their run-up, so they are not stepping out of the

:25:38. > :25:43.floor area. That was the last of the women's individual apparatus finals

:25:44. > :25:49.and we are moving onto the blue ribbon event. There is Nile Wilson.

:25:50. > :25:54.We're pretty much set for the men's high bar final, there was then

:25:55. > :26:03.Keating is there. -- Daniel Keatings. This really is it. This is

:26:04. > :26:10.the one final where we haven't been able to put our money on anyone.

:26:11. > :26:16.John Major! He's expecting some major competition here! He's not

:26:17. > :26:21.going to be disappointed. The talent out there, yet again, you have the

:26:22. > :26:25.home Nations boys, representing great Britain, they will be all

:26:26. > :26:37.fighting for that last medal, and I think mile, -- Nile Wilson, he will

:26:38. > :26:41.be wanting to win this. Daniel Keatings and Nile Wilson will be

:26:42. > :26:54.competing, they had the same score here, 14.76. There is a horror,

:26:55. > :26:58.being introduced. -- O Hara. Nile Wilson, what a year of senior

:26:59. > :27:04.competition he is having, and relishing every moment here at the

:27:05. > :27:15.Commonwealth Games. Daniel Keatings has a gold and silver already. And

:27:16. > :27:22.Frank Baines, is this his time? Christian Thomas, silver on vault.

:27:23. > :27:36.Nile Wilson also has the full set, let's not forget. This is all about

:27:37. > :27:44.getting through the routine. You would expect... The key is, if they

:27:45. > :27:49.hang on, they could medal. You will see a full twisting double

:27:50. > :27:53.somersault over the bar, and they see that by literary at the last

:27:54. > :27:54.second. So there is not a lot of room for error.

:27:55. > :28:00.second. So there is not a lot of room Unbelievable tension here. A

:28:01. > :28:06.lot at stake and I'm not just talking about the medals here. This

:28:07. > :28:13.is really risky stuff. If ever there is a warning to say don't try this

:28:14. > :28:24.at home... ! This would be it. Stand-by for the high bar final.

:28:25. > :28:33.This lad has real fire in his belly, he came third in the Australian

:28:34. > :28:41.Championships on this piece of apparatus. Prepare to be amazed.

:28:42. > :28:48.The Australians have won Commonwealth gold here. Qualified in

:28:49. > :28:57.eighth place. Change of shape, going over the top,

:28:58. > :29:13.kicked out nicely. Tell you what, what a good start to

:29:14. > :29:20.this routine! The coach, ever vigilant.

:29:21. > :29:29.He really opened the hip angle just too early. What a pity. Hands on

:29:30. > :29:35.hips, that tells a sad story. He was going so well. He really is a

:29:36. > :29:40.gymnast that shows his emotions through the competition and that

:29:41. > :29:41.bell, they have 30 seconds to get back on or else they are not allowed

:29:42. > :29:51.to. A bit of a dream start for him. Good

:29:52. > :30:02.releases, then it turned into a nightmare. But he is away now. Big

:30:03. > :30:10.wind-up. The double double. Blended beautifully. Just shows you. If you

:30:11. > :30:18.hang on, you go through, you have got a chance. He was adamant to get

:30:19. > :30:27.at them proved everybody could nail a dismount and he did just that. --

:30:28. > :30:34.prove to everybody. He will be back to Australia now. The routine

:30:35. > :30:35.started so well. It was a sort of relatively easy thing that he broke

:30:36. > :30:51.down on. He was looking at his guards.

:30:52. > :30:54.Because that was fabulous, he caught it falls Rich Tom somersault over

:30:55. > :31:22.the bar. -- courted full stretch. close, that might have been when he

:31:23. > :31:36.did not get around. Disappointment, but lovely work at

:31:37. > :31:43.the start. Sean O'Hara from Australia scores 12.7.

:31:44. > :31:56.Next ago, representing Canada, please welcome Anderson Lawrence.

:31:57. > :32:15.This is the highest qualifier. Lovely, nicely done. Over the diet

:32:16. > :32:24.-- over the top. Full twist. He did not get his hands up. Go for broke.

:32:25. > :32:33.That will wind him, I am sure. He was a bit close. He was too late.

:32:34. > :32:43.One hand and, did not get the second. -- one hand on the bar.

:32:44. > :32:50.Painful. He has to get back in. He did not get his legs down enough

:32:51. > :33:01.to break his fall. Maintaining the focus. Credit to him, two big

:33:02. > :33:13.releases. Different twists and body positions. He is winding up again.

:33:14. > :33:17.Just to show you. He tried a combination and again, he came

:33:18. > :33:23.adrift. He is not holding back and he is loving it. Well done, junk

:33:24. > :33:29.man! He is going to get back up. -- younger man. In the spirit of this

:33:30. > :33:38.apparatus final, these lads are out to impress. He certainly did impress

:33:39. > :33:44.with courage, and almost with style. That is the Gaylord. It is a

:33:45. > :33:59.one-time learned, very difficult. He had a good go at it. -- long time.

:34:00. > :34:03.Come on! Twist on the double. He will get a massive roar of

:34:04. > :34:10.appreciation. A favourite with the crowd, maybe not the judges, Chris!

:34:11. > :34:14.Who cares? He has given them plenty to deduct but it was such an

:34:15. > :34:20.exciting routine and that is the spirit of the high bar, it is

:34:21. > :34:28.exciting. If it does not go well, you gave it your best!

:34:29. > :34:38.That was late, Chris? It was, and you have such forces going through

:34:39. > :34:45.your hands that you have to catch squarely to resist them. He did not

:34:46. > :34:55.really get his hands over on that. We have spoken before and says you

:34:56. > :35:04.have to go over the bar to hang on. Nice. Slightly late getting that

:35:05. > :35:10.left hand in. It is all work to get your shoulders square. But he can do

:35:11. > :35:17.the stuff, he has done it many times in training. This is the Gaylord

:35:18. > :35:21.which has to be perfectly timed. It is the combination of the two and

:35:22. > :35:26.that is why you get a lot of of Marx, it is very difficult. --

:35:27. > :35:44.marks. Good dismount. Good effort, my man! It just shows

:35:45. > :35:57.the character and nature of the high bar. 11.86 it. -- 11 .866. That will

:35:58. > :36:06.do! This young man has the full set, a Gold, a bronze, a silver. Junior

:36:07. > :36:08.Europe Ian Champion, what can he do in high bar? It is Nile Wilson, for

:36:09. > :36:25.England. -- European. Legs watch together. -- what it. --

:36:26. > :36:27.his legs locked together. Plenty of time to keep swing going. Lovely

:36:28. > :36:35.technique. Very nice work. Time to spare. Beautiful

:36:36. > :36:56.technician. This is beautiful work. And I do not

:36:57. > :37:02.use that term very often. Lovely in the inverter swing. Flashes of style

:37:03. > :37:09.and presentation throughout. Come on, boy! Eight double -double. The

:37:10. > :37:17.tiniest of adjustments, what a performance! -- a double. He will

:37:18. > :37:21.get another medal, I tell you that. Every move was never in doubt,

:37:22. > :37:27.absolute perfection! Everything he did, Chris. He has been trained so

:37:28. > :37:30.well. Every move is performed well and when you perform it well, the

:37:31. > :37:35.next move is easy. He is a class and when you perform it well, the

:37:36. > :37:51.and he has got a lot of that as well! What a debut in his senior

:37:52. > :37:55.year. Quite amazing. He was well above horizontal, he was square. A

:37:56. > :38:02.lot of gymnasts do this but they are scruffy and whatever. That was good

:38:03. > :38:06.stuff, knees locked together. Lovely technique, I am absolutely

:38:07. > :38:16.gobsmacked at how this is he is. Brilliant technique. -- how precise.

:38:17. > :38:21.He has had some year. Five Gold medals at the Junior European

:38:22. > :38:27.Championships. This is the one year he can be a junior or a senior. He

:38:28. > :38:33.competed in the Junior Championships in May and then he was allowed to be

:38:34. > :38:38.a senior, he cannot go back to the junior competitions at the end of

:38:39. > :38:46.the year. Every shape you to fully done, great finish, tiny adjustment.

:38:47. > :38:57.-- dutifully. He could win this on execution alone. That is without

:38:58. > :39:04.question the performance to beat. His dad is delighted. Without

:39:05. > :39:15.question. The whole family celebrates. Look at his face seeing

:39:16. > :39:34.his family. 14.966! That is a huge score. Great work. Daniel Keatings.

:39:35. > :39:47.He matched male Wilson in your round, can he match in here? -- and

:39:48. > :39:59.I'll will. Pressure is on. -- Nile Wilson. Every shape is clearly made.

:40:00. > :40:06.That is a shame. He was a late. The sequence is vital to that skill. It

:40:07. > :40:13.is crucial. You have to go through it long enough. He was hanging on to

:40:14. > :40:22.long. I think he came down heavily on not right shoulder. Do not do

:40:23. > :40:30.anything to brave here. -- to brave. Just go through.

:40:31. > :40:42.Thrills and spills already. In this high bar final. Daniel Keatings is

:40:43. > :40:48.still swinging with impressive style. Half turn. He is still

:40:49. > :41:03.looking good. Watch the pike. The arch. Twist and

:41:04. > :41:13.the double straight. He is such a mature performer. Beautifully done.

:41:14. > :41:22.And what a Games this has been for Daniel Keatings. Everything he has

:41:23. > :41:26.deserved. A little disappointment. But he has had a great time and he

:41:27. > :41:33.has proved to everybody you can focus, concentrate, he can do really

:41:34. > :41:41.well. Gold in the pommelhorse, silver in the all-around, silver for

:41:42. > :41:47.the team. He is injured a bit now. These British guys have got such

:41:48. > :41:53.great technique. Their body lines are so good. It really has been a

:41:54. > :42:01.generation that have been well trained, well coached. Look at that!

:42:02. > :42:07.Into the perfect straight line. This is when he has already fallen and is

:42:08. > :42:16.feeling a bit wobbly. He knows he has worked so well. One of the

:42:17. > :42:21.things is because they know they work so well, they are not having to

:42:22. > :42:29.include things they can only half do. Everything is quite secure

:42:30. > :42:37.before it goes on. -- goes on. Such a good shape. Just like the

:42:38. > :42:51.textbook, arms I -- out to study the landing. -- steady. Into silver

:42:52. > :42:58.position for the moment. Nile Wilson is leading.

:42:59. > :43:07.If Frank Baines can go through his routine here, he is in with a very

:43:08. > :43:18.good chance of a top three finish. Could this be his chance for an

:43:19. > :43:25.individual medal? He can be guaranteed to give lovely shapes,

:43:26. > :43:34.confident swinging. Nice. Legs together. In the straddle position.

:43:35. > :43:38.Three releases. Spot-on. Half turn, straight to handstand. Half turn. He

:43:39. > :44:02.has made it. Keeping the swing. Nice and secure. Very good change.

:44:03. > :44:12.Winding up. Watch the pike and the stretch. Twist in the double, and

:44:13. > :44:17.the button! -- it is on the button. Well done, Frank Baines! That would

:44:18. > :44:24.make the perfect finish to these championships if Frank Baines could

:44:25. > :44:28.get an individual medal. I think that he will! We have seen him so

:44:29. > :44:34.good. He has gone all the way round and finally, in the last individual

:44:35. > :44:39.apparatus final, it is the time for Frank Baines. He literally went all

:44:40. > :44:50.the way round in that high bar, every circle was well done. And

:44:51. > :44:56.enjoy it, Chris. He swings out of his catches. You let go and you have

:44:57. > :45:01.to swing into the next move. He is very efficient at this. He hits a

:45:02. > :45:15.perfect straight line. When you are swinging, if you have great

:45:16. > :45:22.shoulders, he has good shoulders. He stalled for a second. Back into that

:45:23. > :45:33.swing. Heads down. Twist in the straight shape. -- head. Easy

:45:34. > :45:44.landing. Delighted for him. Got yourself a medal, I am sure of it.

:45:45. > :45:52.14.566! Into silver, three to go. That is your leader, Nile Wilson.

:45:53. > :45:59.Kristian Thomas, for England. He is the next gymnast. He has got the

:46:00. > :46:09.difficulty. He has got a silver in vault, Gold for the team. Immaculate

:46:10. > :46:24.in release, again. That is so impressive!

:46:25. > :46:31.actions, but he didn't. This is superb. Into the forward swing after

:46:32. > :46:44.the half term. Keep the rhythm now. That's the full term. Stand this one

:46:45. > :46:52.up and he is going to be in top perch. He is going to be close! Nile

:46:53. > :47:00.Wilson will be looking very closely at that! This is a real battle for

:47:01. > :47:04.Commonwealth champion. It certainly is. We have seen him fall to a

:47:05. > :47:08.couple of times so that was fantastic, to see him go through

:47:09. > :47:14.that high bar routine -- we have seen him falter. They have done what

:47:15. > :47:22.they can, it's now down to the judges. Risky work, done with such

:47:23. > :47:29.security. These guys are looking really good on high bar. This is

:47:30. > :47:34.really impressive, technically. When you have got the lights of Frank

:47:35. > :47:40.Baines and Nile Wilson coming up behind you, it keeps you on your

:47:41. > :47:49.toes. That was great stuff. The full term, catch and swing. Plenty of

:47:50. > :47:51.excitement, plenty of difficulty. Such height above the bar. Great

:47:52. > :48:09.technique. This, the dismount, holds the shed,

:48:10. > :48:20.steadies for lending. He wants to be on his feet. Will that step be the

:48:21. > :48:30.crucial factor in the placings here? It's a 14.966 four Thomas! Another

:48:31. > :48:38.saw before him. -- another silver for him. Same score, so it will

:48:39. > :48:53.go... It will be the Peace Corps that decides it.

:48:54. > :48:59.The penultimate gymnast in this final. Could he spoil the party for

:49:00. > :49:08.the Home Nations? He won't risk anything to be, I am

:49:09. > :49:29.sure. Very nice start. A little bit slow coming out into

:49:30. > :49:36.the inverted swings. But he's such a joy to watch, he has a lovely,

:49:37. > :49:42.almost laconic style. Full twisting the double straight, he is so good

:49:43. > :49:48.to watch. It was secure, it was classy, he need to score of over

:49:49. > :49:52.14.566 if he is going to knock Frank Baines out of the bronze medal

:49:53. > :49:56.position. It was classy work, the best I've seen him do, he has been

:49:57. > :50:04.up and down on the apparatus. He has warmed up. You can always rely on

:50:05. > :50:10.someone from the land of the rising Sun to produce quality work in a

:50:11. > :50:16.particular rhythm and pace. It's just a question of difficulty, I

:50:17. > :50:19.think. I was going to say, that was a little bit untidy, we have seen

:50:20. > :50:25.the other guys do that move within these together. He had a less

:50:26. > :50:28.difficult routine in qualification but he might have increased it a bit

:50:29. > :50:37.because I'm sure he has a huge repertoire.

:50:38. > :50:44.Smooth with a full turn. His pirouettes are very good. Sometimes

:50:45. > :50:55.we see turns a bit late but he is very secure on them. Up snap,

:50:56. > :51:04.turned, hand on nice and early. And then the squat dislocation move.

:51:05. > :51:22.All this winning on beautiful straight arms. Accelerates over.

:51:23. > :51:29.Tsukahara is in fourth. So Nile Wilson, head of Thomas, Frank Baines

:51:30. > :51:39.is hanging in there. One gymnast left to go. We have seen him go all

:51:40. > :51:47.out in the individual finals he has been in before and he has been in

:51:48. > :51:50.before it usually doesn't hold back. That is a very sprightly start. Very

:51:51. > :52:10.nicely done. One and a half turns, catching just

:52:11. > :52:19.a little bit late. And there is another one.

:52:20. > :52:27.He could genuinely get amongst the medals. Landed, double double. Now

:52:28. > :52:33.that is a medal performance, surely, surely he's going to get

:52:34. > :52:44.amongst it with that! 6.5 difficulty in convocation, it's up there.

:52:45. > :52:49.14.566, the school for bronze. -- the score. And Lytwtyn, he thinks he

:52:50. > :52:53.has done enough. That was a good, good landing after a difficult

:52:54. > :53:01.routine. The move that amazes me is the one and a half twists, he does

:53:02. > :53:06.it is a move, number 25 or something, normally you see it as

:53:07. > :53:14.the first move! It takes a lot of skill. Quite clean on that. It was

:53:15. > :53:22.close, he did well. There was so much in this routine. He put this in

:53:23. > :53:28.towards the end of the routine! He was so secure, he was happy to do it

:53:29. > :53:30.after umpteen other moves. He certainly has earned the right to a

:53:31. > :53:36.medal, I'm sure the judges will give him one, this is just great. I is

:53:37. > :53:44.down, setting up the twist heatedly. Double double, and not too much

:53:45. > :53:49.problem on landing either. Surely a medal. These finals have been a

:53:50. > :54:07.fantastic level. Fiercely contested. Look at that,

:54:08. > :54:17.quietly confident. Look at that, he says. He loves it. 14.866, he has

:54:18. > :54:23.got himself a bronze medal and thoroughly deserved!

:54:24. > :54:29.And it looks as if my old Thomas has got himself a gold medal. What a way

:54:30. > :54:47.to finish. -- mile Thomas. Will they separate the first two

:54:48. > :54:50.scores? If it is execution, this man could win it on execution. The might

:54:51. > :55:06.just do that. Yes, that's the point, execution,

:55:07. > :55:13.because basically, Kristian put a bit more difficult routine. You

:55:14. > :55:21.could see at the end, Kristian had a smile on his face, he has taken away

:55:22. > :55:28.a gold and two silvers, the gymnasts have walked away in one piece and we

:55:29. > :55:34.wish them all the best. We do have to mention Frank Baines. We thought

:55:35. > :55:38.this was his chance, just to walk away with an individual medal and

:55:39. > :55:42.what it would have meant to him. It would have meant so much, to go out

:55:43. > :55:47.and do the routine right at the end of the competition, he is tired,

:55:48. > :55:51.that he did his best routine of the whole competition and unfortunately

:55:52. > :55:58.it wasn't meant to be. But you've got to watch. Exactly, he has learnt

:55:59. > :56:04.how pick themselves up after disappointment, the coaches will be

:56:05. > :56:08.looking at how he reacts. He had a really nasty accident not so long

:56:09. > :56:14.ago. He really did his back in. And because of high bar, he's just a

:56:15. > :56:19.little bit tentative, and to go out there and produce what he did their

:56:20. > :56:25.says a lot. He had so much support from the medical and also the

:56:26. > :56:28.psychological side of it, it was the dismount, got lost halfway through

:56:29. > :56:34.and came down on his head, it was a severe accident but all credit to

:56:35. > :56:38.everyone getting him fully fit. Talked about the parallel bars final

:56:39. > :56:43.is being world-class Purdue wouldn't have seen much better even at the

:56:44. > :56:48.Olympics. With the high bar, you have to take that risk, sometimes it

:56:49. > :56:51.doesn't pay off. You saw the Canadian falling off, he saw Dan

:56:52. > :56:58.Keatings, but he walked away with a smile on his face. Just from the

:56:59. > :57:06.Home Nations, what an addition it has been to the medals table. Just

:57:07. > :57:09.roughly, it is 11 gold medals, seven Silver, eight bronze. What a time we

:57:10. > :57:20.have had here. It has been an absolute joy. Thank

:57:21. > :57:23.you so much, plenty to celebrate. We should probably show you exactly

:57:24. > :57:44.what that means a gymnastics medal table.

:57:45. > :57:48.Incredible stuff, the likes of Max Whitlock, Daniel Keatings and Nile

:57:49. > :58:09.Wilson have been stars. Gymnastics's new star has won the

:58:10. > :58:20.most gold medals pining wish women at the games in 84 years.

:58:21. > :58:26.microsecond gymnastics title and their 16th cold here in Glasgow. It

:58:27. > :58:40.was the second goal of the game is for Jack Laugher. And a golden

:58:41. > :58:47.double, Scotland emphatically beat England 16-8.

:58:48. > :58:55.Don't forget, we're hopping over to BBC Two suing because we are heading

:58:56. > :58:58.for the track and field and the appearance of a certain Usain Bolt,

:58:59. > :59:04.who has made a few headlines of late. Yes he is right, the weather

:59:05. > :59:08.has been a bit shower array of late but it is brightening up. We're

:59:09. > :59:12.going to leave you with images from the hydro where Scotland, England

:59:13. > :59:17.and Wales, it has been raining medals for them, some of the stars

:59:18. > :59:31.of the future have been revealed. By bye for now.

:59:32. > :59:43.This is all about Claudia There is your golden boy! Scotland's Daniel

:59:44. > :59:54.Keatings! Rebecca Downey is Commonwealth champion! What a super

:59:55. > :00:01.performance! Scotland go crazy. Dan Purvis, gold medal.

:00:02. > :00:08.It's a golden floor routine for the golden girl.

:00:09. > :00:11.When wild animals get sick, it takes radical thinking,

:00:12. > :00:14.extraordinary medical skills and great bravery

:00:15. > :00:20.This is routine for me. The problem is to do it on a rhinoceros.

:00:21. > :00:23.This is real bionic stuff, it's amazing.

:00:24. > :00:27.This is the trickiest ultrasound I've ever seen.
