BBC Three: Day 4: 09:00-14:00

:00:45. > :00:50.There are some wind, rain clouds but that certainly won't dampen spirits.

:00:51. > :00:56.Warm welcome. It's Sunday, traditionally a day of rest but they

:00:57. > :00:57.will be no letup in the intensity as we

:00:58. > :01:01.will be no letup in the intensity as enter our fourth day. The medals for

:01:02. > :01:11.the home nations have been flowing in and it just gets better.

:01:12. > :01:25.Australia try to resist but Scotland are going to make it!

:01:26. > :02:30.Australia now top the medal count, but for England, some gold medals in

:02:31. > :02:41.the Paul and in weightlifting. In judo, home nations continue to

:02:42. > :02:48.dominate. There will also gold medals in the velodrome, Natalie

:02:49. > :02:53.Powell made it to crow gold medals for the principality.

:02:54. > :03:03.So the question that was continue and the early birds hoped to catch

:03:04. > :03:09.the worm. Alex Marshall and Paul Foster, who won gold back in 2006

:03:10. > :03:15.are taking on Andrew Napper and some ketchup or a place in the bowls

:03:16. > :03:20.finals. And at the Emirates arena, badminton is up and running, getting

:03:21. > :03:29.towards the gold medal matches pretty soon. More that come. Coming

:03:30. > :03:34.up here on BBC Three, we're off to the international hockey centre at

:03:35. > :03:39.Kelvingrove as Scotland but their commonwealth credentials to the test

:03:40. > :03:53.against holders Australia. We have action from the swimming pool, and

:03:54. > :04:00.we will be catching up with the bold semifinal. -- the bowls semifinal.

:04:01. > :04:08.It's the first day of athletics at Glasgow 2014 and on BBC One, they

:04:09. > :04:11.are covering the marathon. You know what they have got, you know what we

:04:12. > :04:28.have got but there is plenty more live sport to in jaw. -- to enjoy.

:04:29. > :04:38.It is the mixed teams semifinal in badminton. If you are on the move,

:04:39. > :04:42.even going to see the marathon, you don't have to miss out, download the

:04:43. > :04:53.app and you can catch all the action on your mobile device. My goodness,

:04:54. > :04:58.the sun has just come out. The marathon is underway, the women's

:04:59. > :05:04.marathon underway at 9:30 a.m., any discussion of thoughts you have

:05:05. > :05:10.about anything you see on the programmes, online or on the red

:05:11. > :05:24.button, hashtag BBC Glasgow 2014 or send us your photographs. Or hashtag

:05:25. > :05:29.Commonwelfies look at this one here. Very proud Scot, clearly. You may

:05:30. > :05:36.have seen Matthew Wright in action, here he is. But send us your

:05:37. > :05:43.Commonwelfies, and we will put them up through the course of the day. A

:05:44. > :05:47.feast of tasty sport on the menu. Let's get up and running with the

:05:48. > :06:01.first one, it is hockey. Scotland against Australia.

:06:02. > :06:06.The thing that Emily Maguire could be, she had to back off the five

:06:07. > :06:14.metres or it would be a penalty corner anyway -- nothing. The

:06:15. > :06:19.scoreboard momentarily flashed up penalty struck, but it is a penalty

:06:20. > :06:26.corner. Last 15 seconds for the Scottish defence to prepare. White

:06:27. > :06:31.is waiting. Let's see what Scotland can do. Not much. Australia, off the

:06:32. > :06:44.mark! Brilliant goal by Kenny. She is in

:06:45. > :06:51.fine form in this tournament. Puts it into the roof of the net above

:06:52. > :06:57.the diving Gibson. The start that Scotland didn't want. Having been on

:06:58. > :07:00.the front foot for the first 90 seconds, they concede a penalty

:07:01. > :07:18.corner and it is beautifully executed by Kenny.

:07:19. > :07:31.Scotland, reeling from the shock of the early goal.

:07:32. > :07:39.A beautiful pass right down the middle from the halfway line. Real

:07:40. > :07:42.danger here as Scotland attempt to clear their lines. Another penalty

:07:43. > :07:56.corner. A Scottish put on to put the circle

:07:57. > :08:03.agreed to the umpire. -- a Scottish put on top of the circle according

:08:04. > :08:08.to the umpire. I think it bubbles off Rebecca Ward in the end. It was

:08:09. > :08:23.close, and no complaint from Scotland. So Kenny is poised again.

:08:24. > :08:41.Absolutely stunning work in the Scottish goal from Amy Gibson. We

:08:42. > :08:46.thought she was going to be busy today, Kenny has gone the same spot,

:08:47. > :08:51.and why wouldn't you after you have scored a bullet from the first

:08:52. > :08:53.corner, but a fantastic save, that will definitely give a boost to the

:08:54. > :09:33.Scottish team. The passing from Australia is

:09:34. > :09:35.fantastic. Once again, great save by Gibson, the shot was straight at

:09:36. > :10:29.her, but she did it confidently. Switching it right over

:10:30. > :10:31.hand side. Danger for Scotland here. They will be happy to just slow

:10:32. > :10:55.things down and take the free hit. Scotland, in a tight spot. The blue

:10:56. > :11:13.shirts are charging forward again. Australia, with an amazing ability

:11:14. > :11:53.to run into Scotland, looking for a way out.

:11:54. > :12:26.Eventually pushed behind. Australia, looking for a Scottish

:12:27. > :12:39.The Scottish attacks are short lived penalty

:12:40. > :12:46.The Scottish attacks are short lived as Australia defend effectively.

:12:47. > :12:47.Flanagan, having a look around, waiting for her players to position

:12:48. > :13:04.themselves. jink and run, Scotland get the

:13:05. > :14:11.decision. Australia break at speed. The ball

:14:12. > :14:13.beautifully shielded all the way down into Scottish territory by

:14:14. > :14:46.Georgina Parker. The sun is coming out. After the

:14:47. > :14:50.early showers, blessed with beautiful weather again for the next

:14:51. > :15:48.few minutes at least. Despite the early goal, not a bad

:15:49. > :15:53.start for Scotland. I have been impressed with the way they have

:15:54. > :15:55.tried to play. The key to unlocking the Australian team defence is that

:15:56. > :16:01.you have to move the ball quickly and Scotland have tried to do that.

:16:02. > :16:12.They are coming forward again. Three Scottish players in the T. -- D.

:16:13. > :16:21.Scotland camped out in the Australian half now. That is good

:16:22. > :16:28.tackling all the way to the line of the circle. Scotland are almost

:16:29. > :16:36.doing to Australia what Australia do to teams and that is pressed hard. A

:16:37. > :16:51.lot of ball high up the pitch. They keep working really hard. Kidd

:16:52. > :17:00.again. Takes it on. Bounces it across and it is behind. Scotland

:17:01. > :17:06.have another go. Kidd, same choice. That was not so clever though. Lack

:17:07. > :17:19.of control from Nikki Kidd but an encouraging site. For the host

:17:20. > :17:20.nation. Aerial ball, bouncing and taken by Ferrer, good control. Slows

:17:21. > :17:46.things down. -- taken by Davies. Blyth, captain. Three Scottish

:17:47. > :17:50.players around her. Bone, her 50th cap, all the way back to Jodie Kenny

:17:51. > :17:54.and Australia come down the right-hand side now with Casey

:17:55. > :18:01.Eastham and at speed. Nice little push forward, off-balance. Building

:18:02. > :18:12.a positive move and they have got four in the T. -- D. Reverse

:18:13. > :18:26.sticking, coming out again, solid defence from Scotland.

:18:27. > :18:33.Australia, always dangerous in this situation, Parker. Some relief for

:18:34. > :18:45.Scotland and they can make a couple of substitutions here.

:18:46. > :19:00.Taken quickly. Bell charging. Tags inside, good work from Bell. Flicked

:19:01. > :19:07.into the D. Australia back quickly to defend. For Australia. Flicked it

:19:08. > :19:13.back. Madonna Blyth. Stick control from the captain. Edwina Bone.

:19:14. > :19:22.Thinking about her options. Flanagan to her left. Goes forward back to

:19:23. > :19:27.Blyth who is dispossessed by Bell. Scotland are up into Australian

:19:28. > :19:35.territory. Mr control again, it is out, and lucky. -- unlucky. Could

:19:36. > :19:40.not get enough stick on the ball to prevent it going out. Really lively

:19:41. > :20:05.start to this match. Lots to enjoy. Scotland at speed. Drilled into the

:20:06. > :20:15.D. The ball was wide but a good effort. Emily Maguire using her

:20:16. > :20:19.bronze medal Olympic experience. Really positive signs by Scotland,

:20:20. > :20:20.they are pressing Australia really well. They have to make some of this

:20:21. > :20:38.pressure count at some stage. Solid defence again from Scotland.

:20:39. > :20:44.Sometimes their touch has let them down. As Australia break down the

:20:45. > :20:48.right, it is pushed out of play. Just take the pace off the Australia

:20:49. > :20:52.attack. It will be Kellie White here for Australia. And that was a little

:20:53. > :21:15.careless by her. Ball high. Robinson coming back to

:21:16. > :21:32.pick it up. It will be the Ball high. Robinson coming back to

:21:33. > :21:40.for a way forward off the shins of the Australian number eight, Nelson.

:21:41. > :21:44.This is into lots of space and this is dangerous for Scotland. Madonna

:21:45. > :21:51.Blyth, the captain, might have a shot on goal, it is kicked away.

:21:52. > :22:00.Still danger. There is a penalty corner.

:22:01. > :22:10.Australia showing their quality. Mistake originally by the Scottish

:22:11. > :22:13.defence to give them the ball. Nanscawen on the baseline knows

:22:14. > :22:18.exactly what she will do to roll it onto a Scotland foot. With all the

:22:19. > :22:24.pressure Scotland have had, you hope the Scottish defence can keep this

:22:25. > :22:27.out. Australia with one successful penalty corner already, courtesy of

:22:28. > :22:34.Jodie Kenny. Right at the start of the match. They will have another

:22:35. > :22:40.crack at this. Penalty corner for Australia. Kenny's flick, save this

:22:41. > :22:46.time... But it is in! William goal from Australia. Making something out

:22:47. > :22:51.of nothing. -- brilliant goal. It is scored by Ashleigh Nelson.

:22:52. > :22:56.Absolutely brilliant rebound. Initial saved by Gibson, she will be

:22:57. > :23:02.disappointed she has batted it back out, off her glove. Great reflex, I

:23:03. > :23:05.think it is by Peris. Nelson above the shoulder and into the goal.

:23:06. > :23:12.think it is by Peris. Nelson above Against the

:23:13. > :23:12.think it is by Peris. Nelson above have just gone 2-0 up. 16 minutes of

:23:13. > :23:58.the half to play. They were not happy with that pass.

:23:59. > :24:04.Can you hear me? Australia is looking for a stick... And an

:24:05. > :24:10.obstruction in looking for a stick... And an

:24:11. > :24:12.corner. Australia are asking the video umpire to check this one

:24:13. > :24:13.corner. Australia are asking the and see if there is cause for a

:24:14. > :24:41.penalty corner. A fairly confident call.

:24:42. > :24:41.little scuffle. And the result is another penalty corner for

:24:42. > :25:00.Australia. Georgia Nanscawen and Jodie Kenny,

:25:01. > :25:08.lining up to potentially have a go at this one. Anna Flanagan is there

:25:09. > :25:19.as well. It is Kenny. It is a goal. Her second. Australia's third.

:25:20. > :25:25.Fantastic goal, Jodie Kenny opting to go low this time. Nothing that

:25:26. > :25:33.Amy Gibson Ingold could do. Full-length dive across, stick side.

:25:34. > :25:40.Jodie Kenny is on fire in this tournament. Beautifully executed.

:25:41. > :25:44.Scotland trailing by three goals. Looking for some kind of

:25:45. > :25:52.retaliation. It is off the foot of Kidd.

:25:53. > :25:58.Kenny's sixth goal of the tournament, two in this match. The

:25:59. > :26:02.skies are darkening again, we will be in for a downpour, maybe a return

:26:03. > :26:08.to Scottish weather will help Scottish prospect here. --

:26:09. > :26:33.prospects. Australia so confident with their

:26:34. > :26:41.passing but that when -- that one went astray. The intended target was

:26:42. > :26:45.Jayde Taylor. This is encouraging. Great speed from Nanscawen. It is

:26:46. > :26:54.plucked out of the air. Good plucked out of the air. Good

:26:55. > :27:03.defensive work from Scotland. Jenna for Australia. Nanscawen again.

:27:04. > :27:11.Leigh Fawcett doing the defensive control work here. She finds an

:27:12. > :27:33.exit. Nanscawen again. Scotland ball.

:27:34. > :27:43.Parker gets a green card for not getting away from five metres for

:27:44. > :27:49.the free kick so she will sit down for a couple of minutes, giving

:27:50. > :28:00.Scotland and advantage. It is 11 versus ten for the next two minutes.

:28:01. > :28:02.Claxton. Nicely done. . All the way to the edge of the circle and she

:28:03. > :28:28.keeps on going. She pulls it back. Flanagan did well. Such a big unit,

:28:29. > :28:34.tough to get round. All the way back to Kenny. The other properly tall

:28:35. > :28:57.member of the Australian side. Eastham. Kenny. Eastham again. A

:28:58. > :29:09.little bit of passing practice between the two. Flanagan gets

:29:10. > :29:17.involved. Eastham, too far, Claxton tries to recover. Well shielded.

:29:18. > :29:25.Scotland looking for a way out. Wyllie, Bunce and Fawcett, scrapping

:29:26. > :29:28.for possession and eventually, it is a Scotland ball and they speed down

:29:29. > :29:38.the right. She was tripped while she? -- was she? The umpire reaches

:29:39. > :29:45.for a card, it is a five-minute suspension. Scotland will have a

:29:46. > :30:00.real opportunity. Kate Jenner's turn to sit down. During this period of

:30:01. > :30:05.power play, with the 11 to ten advantage, Scotland must try to use

:30:06. > :30:06.it and they are in good shape. It is a penalty corner. Scotland's first

:30:07. > :30:23.of the match. We'll play by Scotland. -- well

:30:24. > :30:31.played. Poor defending by Australia there. She wouldn't set when the

:30:32. > :30:32.Bulls crashed into the circle, you hope Scotland can score this to get

:30:33. > :30:48.back into the game. They can't find a way through.

:30:49. > :30:58.Bannigan, depending with a face mask on. -- defending.

:30:59. > :31:12.Fawcett just took a split-2nd too long.

:31:13. > :31:21.Just to remind you, Scotland have 11 players on the field, Australia only

:31:22. > :31:24.ten at the moment. They have another three and a half minutes to do some

:31:25. > :31:34.damage during this period of power play. That was such a good chance!

:31:35. > :31:40.Sarah Robertson dived at the ball but couldn't make intact. Brilliant

:31:41. > :31:46.counter attacking play from Scotland. She just couldn't quite

:31:47. > :31:47.get on the end of the ball, Sarah Robertson, but again, positive play

:31:48. > :32:28.I Scotland. -- by Scotland. A free hit for Australia. Still a

:32:29. > :32:46.player down. The ball is stolen, Scotland need to

:32:47. > :32:53.come forward with numbers and that's not going to help. Last eight

:32:54. > :33:17.minutes of the half. Into no man's land over there. A

:33:18. > :33:19.couple more substitutions for Scotland in an attempt to make

:33:20. > :33:20.couple more substitutions for most of the last couple of minutes

:33:21. > :33:31.of numerical advantage. Life is covering

:33:32. > :33:52.She has everything covered. -- live. That was a good pass, the first trap

:33:53. > :34:36.wasn't quite so clever. Wyllie is Good tackle. Kelli White might put

:34:37. > :35:45.it back Good tackle. Kelli White might put

:35:46. > :35:53.shot. Good goalkeeping. Lines are cleared.

:35:54. > :35:58.Amy Gibson, busy in the Scotland goal. Three times she has had to

:35:59. > :36:24.pick the ball out of the back. She's eventually tackled on the edge

:36:25. > :36:45.but it's an Australia ball. Four minutes for Scotland to get one

:36:46. > :37:09.back in this opening half. For just held up, but not quite

:37:10. > :37:53.enough. Just flashing in front of the two

:37:54. > :38:11.Australian sticks, harmless in the end.

:38:12. > :38:30.Scotland, with three in the D. Good control.

:38:31. > :38:38.The ball is still live under there somewhere. It will be a Scotland

:38:39. > :38:52.ball. Australia, very impressive during

:38:53. > :39:08.the first 34 minutes of this match. The difference between the two

:39:09. > :39:12.sides, if you look at the possession, it's probably evenly

:39:13. > :39:17.split, Australia have just had the quality in and around the circle.

:39:18. > :39:21.When they get the upper end, you feel something is going to happen.

:39:22. > :39:22.Scotland have had a lot of possession that's not the end

:39:23. > :39:48.product so far. Good defence from Scotland. Claxton

:39:49. > :40:25.is there to pick it up. Emily Smith, holding it up and

:40:26. > :40:38.finding her way out of trouble, only as far as Kenny.

:40:39. > :40:55.That will be that for the first half.

:40:56. > :41:07.So after 35mm of high octane hockey here at the Glasgow National hockey

:41:08. > :41:17.centre, the scoreline is Scotland zero, Australia three.

:41:18. > :41:22.Australia really dominant in this match, even with the advantage of

:41:23. > :41:28.the extra player, they weren't able to capitalise. We will go back for

:41:29. > :41:33.live coverage of the second half but they can be no doubt that everyone

:41:34. > :41:40.in Glasgow, Britain, the world, anyone interested in Essex will know

:41:41. > :41:40.that Usain Bolt arrived in Glasgow yesterday -- interested in

:41:41. > :41:53.athletics. I am strangely reminded of Elvis

:41:54. > :41:59.Presley, touched down on UK soil once. Usain Bolt is here, unless he

:42:00. > :42:03.falls in love with the girl from Cumbernauld, this may be his only

:42:04. > :42:05.visit to Scotland so as you can understand, there is a lot of

:42:06. > :42:12.expectation. Usain Bolt is in the building! Use

:42:13. > :42:34.smaller than he looks on television! Fear we are, the star of the show is

:42:35. > :42:41.here. Expect a few quirky questions, does he like haggis, does he like

:42:42. > :42:52.Scotland? Are you going to run in the heats of the relay? Yes, I will.

:42:53. > :42:59.Have you ever worn a kilt? Ready is not my colour. We were wondering if

:43:00. > :43:07.we could get a self-feeding with you. Before I leave. Will you be

:43:08. > :43:12.able to categorically state you can run later in the week? Yes, I am

:43:13. > :43:21.here to run. I don't know why I would travel all this way. What have

:43:22. > :43:26.we learned from that? Bolt is giving all the answers. We know he didn't

:43:27. > :43:30.want to put on a kilt just here, the mystery is whether he likes haggis

:43:31. > :43:35.or not, that wasn't answered. One thing is clear, we knew a long time

:43:36. > :43:44.We thank Andrew for that, the state the games.

:43:45. > :43:49.We thank Andrew for that, the state not very close to Usain Bolt at all

:43:50. > :43:55.yesterday. I am joined by Vicki McDonald, you won the mixed

:43:56. > :43:59.triathlon yesterday. Congratulations first of all, a great win for

:44:00. > :44:06.England but expected, after the individual triathlons? I think are

:44:07. > :44:09.going to be really with four individual medals, we were the hot

:44:10. > :44:12.favourites but with that comes pressure to deliver on the day so it

:44:13. > :44:18.was nice to take that off. pressure to deliver on the day so it

:44:19. > :44:21.Those people who watch a lot of sport, athletics and triathlon will

:44:22. > :44:28.get it, how does the mixed team triathlon differ? It is quite a new

:44:29. > :44:32.concept, but basically every individual does a mini triathlon, it

:44:33. > :44:38.starts off with the girls in hand onto a gentleman, then a girl, then

:44:39. > :44:45.apply on the end. A short swim, 250 metres, then you ride for six

:44:46. > :44:53.kilometres, as opposed to 40. Then you run for 1.6 kilometres as

:44:54. > :45:00.opposed to ten. It hands over from girl to guy to girl to guy again.

:45:01. > :45:02.That's probably the first time that the Brownlee brothers have been

:45:03. > :45:08.called a gentleman by anyone! You have been involved in this mixed

:45:09. > :45:13.triathlon, you have won the World Championships, do you prefer it to

:45:14. > :45:20.individual triathlon? It's a fun event to be part of and it hurts so

:45:21. > :45:28.much more, we're not used to... We're not used to the amount of pain

:45:29. > :45:29.we have to put ourselves through with the short stuff, we are trained

:45:30. > :45:33.realistically with the short stuff, we are trained

:45:34. > :45:42.distances. I think I preferred the individual. That's what I train for

:45:43. > :45:49.everyday. To be able to come back to days after Thursday was a great

:45:50. > :45:56.experience. I Hearts ask for much more. It means more because of what

:45:57. > :46:13.I put into it personally and the sacrifice and training. Triathlon

:46:14. > :46:19.came a little late to you? I am not that old but back then, it was a

:46:20. > :46:25.relatively unknown sport. I was a swimmer from age six and I went to

:46:29. > :46:33.level. At university I was realistically more they track runner

:46:34. > :46:37.than anything else. It was at university that I was almost

:46:38. > :46:43.than anything else. It was at into triathlon and I enjoyed being

:46:44. > :46:49.part of a few training camps. I was a bit sceptical at first

:46:50. > :46:52.part of a few training camps. I was got involved I realised how hard it

:46:53. > :46:57.was but equally how great it was to be able to train for all three

:46:58. > :47:04.sports and take the pressure off from

:47:05. > :47:09.sports and take the pressure off every day. You have to be... It is

:47:10. > :47:15.not about being a jack of all trades, you have to be a master of

:47:16. > :47:20.all trades. That is one of the shifts in triathlon in recent years.

:47:21. > :47:26.You used to be able to get away with being a jack of all trades and

:47:27. > :47:32.master of none but not any more. Your weaknesses will be highlighted

:47:33. > :47:37.and exposed now. We have had tough hilly courses and a hot day, you can

:47:38. > :47:40.be a weak athlete, you will not get round and you will not get the

:47:41. > :47:47.result you want. It almost seems like a different country today. We

:47:48. > :47:53.don't mind, we are finished now! Tell me a little bit about how big a

:47:54. > :48:02.deal it is to compete for team England in the Commonwealth Games.

:48:03. > :48:08.How much does that mean to you? I love to be part of that team but it

:48:09. > :48:13.is quite unusual for us. We are always Team GB wherever we go

:48:14. > :48:18.normally. This is really the only time we go anywhere as just

:48:19. > :48:24.England. It has got a bit of a special feel to it because of that.

:48:25. > :48:31.Personally, I love to be Team GB but being team England once in a while

:48:32. > :48:35.is nice. If you are listening to this and you can hear the noise in

:48:36. > :48:42.the background, the helicopters are covering the marathon and it is

:48:43. > :48:49.quite deafening! They are on BBC1 if you want to watch that. What is next

:48:50. > :48:52.for you? What are your plans? You can enjoy the rest of the

:48:53. > :48:57.Commonwealth Games but what is next after that? Relax and recharge

:48:58. > :49:04.first. This has had a really big build-up. It feels really great to

:49:05. > :49:10.have not only been able to qualify to come here and put in a good

:49:11. > :49:17.performance but also to get two medals. I am going to enjoy that for

:49:18. > :49:21.a little and let it soak in and take a little bit of time out this week.

:49:22. > :49:25.Next week, I have more races coming and towards the beginning of August

:49:26. > :49:31.and September. I will take some more proper downtime, a full two weeks

:49:32. > :49:40.off before we build-up for the next season. Olympic long jump champion

:49:41. > :49:46.at London 2012 has tweeted his frustration over ignorant athletes

:49:47. > :49:50.in the athletes village. He said it is great until the ignorant athletes

:49:51. > :49:58.make more noise than a herd of elephants in a china shop! Are you

:49:59. > :50:01.responsible for that noise? Absolutely not, I am pleading

:50:02. > :50:07.innocence! There was of course celebration last night but that was

:50:08. > :50:14.not me. It is hard when the events of finished but you have to be aware

:50:15. > :50:21.that other competitors's events are not. I completely take that on

:50:22. > :50:26.board. If you are preparing for your event and people are disturbing

:50:27. > :50:35.new... We did not stay at the village before. We were at

:50:36. > :50:37.Strathclyde park. I can imagine it potentially gets a bit much if you

:50:38. > :50:42.are in the village for the full duration of the games. Thank you

:50:43. > :50:50.very much and congratulations Vicky Holland. Let's head back over to the

:50:51. > :50:53.hockey, it is Scotland against Australia, 3-0 to Australia at

:50:54. > :51:08.half-time. Here is the second half. COMMENTATOR: Australia will get

:51:09. > :51:11.things under way. Australia in green and gold heading from left-to-right.

:51:12. > :51:20.Scotland in their all blue with Wyllie, snatching possession early

:51:21. > :51:28.on. Ralph. Into the circle, flick on, Kenny is there to tidy up but it

:51:29. > :51:33.is not completely tidy. Unlucky. Bell did not make contact. Great

:51:34. > :51:39.play once again. Putting Scotland under pressure. It looks like the

:51:40. > :51:44.ball ended up coming off the foot of Linda Clement in the circle. Though

:51:45. > :51:46.had it ended up in the goal it would not have counted. But again,

:51:47. > :51:59.Scotland getting the ball high up the pitch.

:52:00. > :52:13.Australia's passing, accurate and decisive in the early stages. That

:52:14. > :52:23.was a risky one from Flanagan. Bone takes it off the sideline. Reacting

:52:24. > :52:28.to the situation. Her pass was all right but detract from her team-mate

:52:29. > :52:35.Georgie Parker, was poor. -- but the track. If the powers had been flat

:52:36. > :52:39.on the floor, what Georgie Parker tried to do, it probably would have

:52:40. > :52:43.come off, but she tried to do it with a bouncing ball which is a very

:52:44. > :52:46.difficult skill to execute. But you still expect them to make it. Yes,

:52:47. > :53:09.this side, at this level. Blyth tackling Ward. A chance for

:53:10. > :53:12.Australia to add to this scoreline. It is a penalty corner for

:53:13. > :53:24.Australia. It was inevitable in the end. Great strength by Emily Smith.

:53:25. > :53:29.Going for a number of -- going through a number of tackles.

:53:30. > :53:41.Somebody so, she is very strong and powerful. -- for somebody so small,

:53:42. > :53:48.she is very strong and powerful. Kenny has twice been successful at

:53:49. > :53:53.long-range and it is Flanagan's turn this time. Off the crossbar and over

:53:54. > :53:59.the top. Cleared the safety fence, that one, good effort from Flanagan.

:54:00. > :54:06.Opting for a different option here. Fantastic flick. She has scored a

:54:07. > :54:13.lot of goals in the Hague, Anna Flanagan and that was almost inch

:54:14. > :54:21.perfect. Australia moving forward again. Peris down the right. She is

:54:22. > :54:26.picked out. Claxton to her left and three in the circle. The ball is

:54:27. > :54:49.still live. Video referral. Australia are looking for a foot

:54:50. > :54:58.down here. We will take a look. Australia believe there is a case

:54:59. > :55:07.for a penalty corner. Lowe it is exactly that bit there,. I think it

:55:08. > :55:11.is Rebecca Ward. Peris took it all the way to the line and it is off

:55:12. > :55:20.her shame, it will be a penalty corner by the looks of things.

:55:21. > :55:31.Australia have played the referral game perfectly so far. Emily Smith

:55:32. > :55:36.new straightaway, once it had hit the lead, she was asking for the

:55:37. > :55:43.referral. Australia with another penalty corner opportunity. Will it

:55:44. > :55:47.be Flanagan or Kenny? Looks like it is Flanagan, goes inside and fix it

:55:48. > :56:07.to Kenny. First shot along the turf is safe.

:56:08. > :56:20.Australia with the majority of possession in this second

:56:21. > :56:32.No arguments from Scotland. Another penalty corner for Australia.

:56:33. > :56:46.Villa good turnover played here by Australia. Backing Emily Maguire

:56:47. > :56:50.into a corner. Three from seven so far for Australia. Here is the

:56:51. > :57:00.injection. It will be taken again. One of their defenders... No. The

:57:01. > :57:04.injector... Because they are walking in, Kellie White is walking in to

:57:05. > :57:07.take the injection, she momentarily stopped antibody momentum went

:57:08. > :57:19.forward again which caused the Scottish defence to break the line.

:57:20. > :57:23.It has got to be one fluid movement. Wyllie has been sent to the halfway

:57:24. > :57:31.line, there will be a change of injector here. This time it is

:57:32. > :57:40.Peris. And Kenny with the shot. Beautiful says. -- save. Gibson has

:57:41. > :57:46.had another cracking game in the Scotland goal. Flanagan... Blyth I

:57:47. > :57:55.beg your pardon, fires that one across. Nobody made contact. Much

:57:56. > :57:57.better defending by Scotland in this half. If Amy Gibson had missed it, I

:57:58. > :58:03.think half. If Amy Gibson had missed it, I

:58:04. > :58:14.Scotland definitely will take some confidence from this.

:58:15. > :58:20.Plenty of chances in the second half for Australia but no goals yet.

:58:21. > :58:23.Scotland have kept tabs on the scoreline. All of those three goals

:58:24. > :58:35.coming in the first half. McLellan could not get his stick on

:58:36. > :59:01.that bouncing ball. -- hers stick. Lloyd back inside to McLellan. She

:59:02. > :59:10.spreads it to the right-hand side. Promising looking move forward. And,

:59:11. > :59:14.into the circle. And behind. I don't think Sarah Robertson was expecting

:59:15. > :59:20.Australian defence to miss the ball. It is not a warm day in Glasgow

:59:21. > :59:28.today. It is a good day to bring a blanket the Glasgow National Hockey

:59:29. > :59:40.Centre. I wish I had one myself. Taylor. She goes inside. Three

:59:41. > :59:45.Scottish players around her. Niccolo Lloyd executing the tackle, she

:59:46. > :59:54.heads forward now. Scotland unable to push the ball forward. That is

:59:55. > :00:03.better. Nice work. Good passing. Excellent control. Forcing the

:00:04. > :00:05.Australians to improvise. Flanagan did beautiful work there. Well

:00:06. > :00:09.played Flanagan and here she is backing up. Australia look menacing

:00:10. > :01:02.once again. Out of trouble by Sarah Robertson,

:01:03. > :01:17.who was close to scoring in the first half.

:01:18. > :01:23.Look out quickly Australian players are awarded Scottish pack

:01:24. > :01:27.defending, the Australians are climbing all over them. It is

:01:28. > :01:33.important, Australians look almost important, Australians look

:01:34. > :01:38.disinterested when you make the first pass but then all of a sudden,

:01:39. > :01:42.five or six of them, all at the same time, start to sprint and close you

:01:43. > :01:44.down. It can be really off-putting when you look up and see six yellow

:01:45. > :02:09.shirts running at you. One of the Australians got a bash on

:02:10. > :02:14.the nose, may need attention here. That's Ashley Nelson. Clearly hurts

:02:15. > :03:05.after that collision. Bunce's shoe came off during an

:03:06. > :03:10.interception. The umpire doesn't want her to get injured so stops

:03:11. > :03:13.just to allow her to put that back on. Nelson has a cube of ice just

:03:14. > :03:26.her nose. The first touch for Bunce wasn't

:03:27. > :03:33.great, and Kenny is there with speed and power. Drills it down the mine,

:03:34. > :03:47.not quite good enough but a good pick-up.

:03:48. > :03:53.Bodies everywhere, sticks everywhere.

:03:54. > :04:11.The ball was bouncing around, the players... It came off the helmet of

:04:12. > :04:12.Gibson. Scotland have asked for a team referral, they are not sure

:04:13. > :04:31.this merits a penalty stroke. The umpire, just explaining that she

:04:32. > :04:38.wants the video umpire to have a look. A great save by Gibson, she

:04:39. > :04:47.doesn't know where the ball has gone. I think it's possibly a

:04:48. > :04:49.penalty corner rather than a stroke. It's a great call by Amy Gibson,

:04:50. > :04:54.actually. This clearance here... It was pretty

:04:55. > :05:20.chaotic. From that angle, it looks like it

:05:21. > :05:25.was going wide. It was more like a rugby match for a while. A penalty

:05:26. > :05:33.corner as the ball was not going towards the goal. Yes, good call.

:05:34. > :05:41.The video umpire agrees with you and it will be a penalty corner. So the

:05:42. > :05:49.original position has been overturned. -- decision. But it

:05:50. > :06:05.still dangerous, with Flanagan and Kenny.

:06:06. > :06:26.Great hat-trick by Kenny. That's her second consecutive hat-trick, still

:06:27. > :06:33.going on this stick side, nice and low, generates a lot of power. It's

:06:34. > :06:37.almost an awkward height for Amy Gibson, not quite on the floor, so

:06:38. > :06:46.as she has died, it has bounced over the top of her stick. -- as she has

:06:47. > :06:55.dived. That's hurts seventh goal and her hat-trick in this match.

:06:56. > :07:00.Australia took a while to get off the mark in the second half, scored

:07:01. > :07:06.very quickly at the start of the first period of play. The Scottish

:07:07. > :07:07.defence has been more rubber in second half, now Australia are

:07:08. > :07:14.starting to open up an The danger is over for the moment as

:07:15. > :07:52.gap -- has been more robust. The danger is over for the moment as

:07:53. > :08:05.far as Scotland are concerned. The danger is over for the moment as

:08:06. > :08:13.this will be a defeat for Scotland. It's tough to see them getting a

:08:14. > :08:17.single goal, let alone four or five. It's an impossible task, really, the

:08:18. > :08:38.host nation here against a side of such quality and discipline.

:08:39. > :08:59.Picked up in a dangerous position by Bunce. She is upended.

:09:00. > :09:03.The crowd, starting to turn up the volume levels at times. Might just

:09:04. > :09:04.be a volume levels at times. Might just

:09:05. > :09:10.for the supporters volume levels at times. Might just

:09:11. > :09:49.here. -- That was a little hopeful.

:09:50. > :10:07.not to see on Australian on the far post, though.

:10:08. > :10:16.Scotland with the hit. Flanagan with the hit for Australia. Scotland,

:10:17. > :10:23.with players down in the Australian half, looking for a nudge that might

:10:24. > :10:26.go their way, a deflection, a mistake from Australia, but they are

:10:27. > :10:38.few and far between. That was a wasted opportunity for

:10:39. > :10:56.Scotland. Australia inevitably come off better

:10:57. > :11:05.from the exchange. Another threatening position for

:11:06. > :11:22.Australia. Another penalty corner. The chance

:11:23. > :11:29.for Australia to add to their already impressive tally of four

:11:30. > :11:32.goals. Great call from the umpire, rightly saying that the foot was on

:11:33. > :11:46.the line. Maybe just the heel of the foot on

:11:47. > :11:47.the line. Kenny is not on the corner, so McMahon has gone to join

:11:48. > :11:58.McManaman. Flanagan. And via a defection, Flanagan

:11:59. > :12:17.scores! They have just been so clinical on

:12:18. > :12:25.these corners. The thing that Davis and Gibson in the Scottish defence

:12:26. > :12:28.could do. -- nothing. Might not go to Flanagan actually, because there

:12:29. > :12:36.was another Australian with a bit of stick on that. She was claiming it,

:12:37. > :12:44.but we will wait and see who is credited with that one.

:12:45. > :12:53.Another penalty corner, and it's starting to turn into telephone

:12:54. > :13:01.numbers here as far as Australia are concerned.

:13:02. > :13:08.Again, Gibson doing well to come out to the five yard mark. Scottish

:13:09. > :13:26.defenders perhaps a little bit out right. -- up right.

:13:27. > :13:38.It's another one. She claimed the previous goal but she will

:13:39. > :13:46.definitely get her name alongside this one. It's a carbon copy corner.

:13:47. > :13:50.It's a brilliant deflection, it's the timing of it that is just

:13:51. > :13:57.superb. Never wants to she stopped running. She knows the timing, the

:13:58. > :14:01.pace of the delivery. We feel it's her second of the game out at the

:14:02. > :14:13.moment she has just been credited with that one.

:14:14. > :14:18.It's turning into a bit of a troubling for the host nation here.

:14:19. > :14:36.-- dropping. We mentioned at the start, goal

:14:37. > :14:41.difference might play a part when the group matches are complete, to

:14:42. > :14:50.see who gets out of the group, moves to the knockout stages, but Scotland

:14:51. > :14:54.are yet to make a dent, they could really do with making one or two on

:14:55. > :14:58.the board towards the tail end of this match but of course, Australia

:14:59. > :15:14.will not take their foot off the throttle.

:15:15. > :15:25.situation for Scotland, for McGilveray. Australia pressuring all

:15:26. > :15:44.the time. No P from the green and gold. -- no let up.

:15:45. > :15:51.Scotland coming down the right-hand side this time. But only as far as

:15:52. > :15:56.the halfway line. A little nudge from Claxton, as the power to go

:15:57. > :16:01.through. Turn and a shot for Australia. Desperate events for

:16:02. > :16:14.Scotland, can they find a way through? A successful Scottish

:16:15. > :16:18.defence. Villa brilliant play by Australia. Initially. Gibson quick

:16:19. > :16:27.off her lying to close down the options available to Kellie White.

:16:28. > :16:31.For a moment I thought they might have a foray towards the Australia

:16:32. > :16:54.circle but it was premature. A little bit of passing practice for

:16:55. > :17:03.Australia now. Pressure off, the match is one. -- won. Australia will

:17:04. > :17:12.have three victories from three outings so far at the Commonwealth

:17:13. > :17:18.Games. Australia women's team, three times Commonwealth gold-medallists.

:17:19. > :17:21.They took the gold in Malaysia in 2008, bronze medal in Manchester and

:17:22. > :17:28.gold again in Melbourne and in Delhi. The Australia men have won

:17:29. > :17:29.all four hockey Commonwealth Games goals from Malaysia through to

:17:30. > :17:48.Delhi. Taylor tangling with a couple of

:17:49. > :18:00.Scottish defenders. She wins again and find a team-mate. Peris. Kenny

:18:01. > :18:12.back to switch things around for and find a team-mate. Peris. Kenny

:18:13. > :18:19.Australia. McMahon back to Kenny. Kenny drilling it into the circle.

:18:20. > :18:23.And it hits a Scottish foot and provides another penalty corner for

:18:24. > :18:30.Australia. A chance to go 7-0 in front. It is almost a

:18:31. > :18:33.Australia. A chance to go 7-0 in hit in by Jodie Kenny, she hates it

:18:34. > :18:39.exceptionally hard. Once again, Scotland have fatigue kicking in

:18:40. > :18:42.perhaps, staying very upright, not low in defence and the ball crashing

:18:43. > :18:50.in off the foot. Another penalty corner opportunity for Australia.

:18:51. > :18:55.Kellie White will inject this time. Flanagan and Kenny are

:18:56. > :18:59.Kellie White will inject this time. Maybe somebody else will get a

:19:00. > :19:04.chance here. Let's see what happens, here it is, it looks like

:19:05. > :19:17.Flanagan's shot on goal and it is a good one. Flanagan finding the roof

:19:18. > :19:22.of the net for 7-0. It is just brutal execution by Australia.

:19:23. > :19:27.Again, Flanagan using those long levers to get the ball high into the

:19:28. > :19:32.net. Perhaps they have done their homework on Amy Gibson, she is an

:19:33. > :19:36.exceptional goalkeeper, slightly smaller, that seems to be the way

:19:37. > :19:37.exceptional goalkeeper, slightly going, but compared to Rachel

:19:38. > :19:42.exceptional goalkeeper, slightly down the other end, slightly

:19:43. > :19:44.smaller, and Australia have been utilising the top corners on their

:19:45. > :19:55.penalty corners. Flanagan and Kenny, absolutely lethal with the

:19:56. > :19:56.penalty corner set piece. They might get an eighth here from open play.

:19:57. > :20:05.Good save. Now a get an eighth here from open play.

:20:06. > :20:12.on goal, get an eighth here from open play.

:20:13. > :20:19.wide. Into the last ten minutes of the match. Ashleigh Nelson has

:20:20. > :20:29.scored. All of Australia's goals have come via penalty corners.

:20:30. > :20:34.scored. All of Australia's goals high volley, it was a move that

:20:35. > :20:37.began with a penalty corner. The set piece has been a gold

:20:38. > :20:59.began with a penalty corner. The set Australia. This

:21:00. > :21:14.Australia now with a 7-0 scoreline will be keen

:21:15. > :21:27.The line is cleared, a breakaway but it was kicked along the way. It is

:21:28. > :21:31.just relentless by Australia. They have seven on the board and they are

:21:32. > :21:35.not happy, they want eight, they want nine, and that is their

:21:36. > :21:40.mentality. It is the way they are brought up to play hockey. It is

:21:41. > :21:47.great for the neutral but not if you are on the receiving end. No, sadly

:21:48. > :21:49.for the host nation and the majority of the supporters, Scotland have

:21:50. > :22:07.been well and truly on the receiving end.

:22:08. > :22:21.A missed control, a shot on goal, another one for Australia. Peris

:22:22. > :22:27.making it 8-0. A great double teaming by Australia to steal the

:22:28. > :22:28.ball on top of the circle. Nicolette Kidd, trying to turn but turns into

:22:29. > :23:01.trouble. -- Nikki Kidd. Gordon Shepherd, chatting away, not

:23:02. > :23:04.sure what he has got to say at this stage. Damage limitation is the best

:23:05. > :23:46.Scotland can hope for now. Too long for Lloyd. Scotland will be

:23:47. > :23:49.hoping to hear that final whistle, but they have got another five and a

:23:50. > :24:26.half minutes of play to come. That is a bit strong from Kenny, a

:24:27. > :24:36.rare mistake from her, too far in front of Edwina Bone.

:24:37. > :24:42.Kidd with two Australian players around her, quick to take the free

:24:43. > :24:46.hit. Could Scotland just get themselves a goal? Make the

:24:47. > :24:49.scoreline look a little more respectable? It does not looked

:24:50. > :25:06.likely at this stage. McGilveray, inside, a poor pass,

:25:07. > :25:07.Kidd had to improvise. Fawcett wondering where to go. McGilveray

:25:08. > :25:29.wanting it but Fawcett goes right. Scotland struggling to escape.

:25:30. > :25:34.Threatening move once again from Australia, can they get a shot on

:25:35. > :25:39.goal? Deflected off a Scottish stick but the danger is not over. In

:25:40. > :25:52.front, kicked away, another shot. And this one finding the back. 9-0.

:25:53. > :25:57.Jayde Taylor. It is just wave after wave of Australian pressure. One

:25:58. > :26:04.thing they do very well is hit to the opposite side. J tailor here,

:26:05. > :26:10.smashes it, she is looking at the far backboard side. If Amy Gibson

:26:11. > :26:13.gets a touch on it, it will rebound back out and give Australia and

:26:14. > :26:25.opportunity. They are looking for number ten, Peris. Stick tackle. The

:26:26. > :26:30.umpire says you can refer if you want. Note-takers. From the Scottish

:26:31. > :26:36.team to put their hands up for a referral. It will be a penalty

:26:37. > :26:43.strike. I think it is a fair call. Peris is very quick and she is in on

:26:44. > :26:49.goal. It looks like she almost lost the ball momentarily. McGilveray

:26:50. > :26:59.coming across. Taking the stick before the Senate makes the save. --

:27:00. > :27:02.before Gibson makes the save. Flanagan will take the penalty

:27:03. > :27:19.stroke for Australia. She has missed it. She tries to go high. It is the

:27:20. > :27:21.second Australian miss we have seen in two days. Flanagan has hit the

:27:22. > :27:38.post square on. Off Flanagan's foot. The final

:27:39. > :27:48.whistle cannot come soon enough for Scotland.

:27:49. > :28:10.Lloyd trying her best just to juggle the ball through and get close to

:28:11. > :28:17.the circle but another chance might come here. Down the right-hand side.

:28:18. > :28:23.And. -- down the right-hand side for Scotland. Needs to be quick.

:28:24. > :28:25.Scotland forward. Can they get a shot on goal or a penalty corner?

:28:26. > :28:51.They get nothing. A little bit of time, Maguire. Well

:28:52. > :28:59.taken. Nudged forward. Lloyd will to, a swing and a miss. -- Lloyd

:29:00. > :29:06.will turn. The last 90 seconds of the game. The last chance

:29:07. > :29:09.potentially for Scotland. She is caught in two minds, whether to

:29:10. > :29:14.track the ball first or play it across first time. When Australia

:29:15. > :29:19.tried it earlier with Georgie Parker, we saw how difficult is

:29:20. > :29:21.guilt it was to execute. Two minutes to go and Scotland have had two

:29:22. > :29:24.opportunities, yes, the game to go and Scotland have had two

:29:25. > :29:26.gone with the to go and Scotland have had two

:29:27. > :29:34.least they are still trying to play and create chances.

:29:35. > :29:34.least they are still trying to play find a way around the Australian

:29:35. > :29:45.captain,. find a way around the Australian

:29:46. > :29:56.minute now. Bowen finding Flanagan who just missed

:29:57. > :30:16.minute now. Bowen finding Flanagan has had a good game. And. Foxy -- a

:30:17. > :30:25.they get into double figures? The they get into double figures? The

:30:26. > :30:26.ball is taken away from the Australian stick nicely and Scotland

:30:27. > :30:43.escaped. And that will be that. So goals galore here. Sadly, none

:30:44. > :30:55.for the host nation Scotland. An emphatic 9-0

:30:56. > :31:18.Very tough for Scotland, beaten 9-0 but it's really hard, Australia have

:31:19. > :31:21.won three of the four Commonwealth gold medals on offer, they are the

:31:22. > :31:25.highest ranked side in the competition. That is what success

:31:26. > :31:27.looks like, that is the key Holland, competition. That is what success

:31:28. > :31:34.looks like, that is the English triathletes, part of the mixed

:31:35. > :31:39.looks like, that is the English teams, she is very happy, she has

:31:40. > :31:48.been on that for ten minutes! But that is success, we would get her to

:31:49. > :31:51.wave. She's just ignoring us now. You win a gold medal, and then you

:31:52. > :32:02.just walk away and completely ignore us! We will hopefully get over to

:32:03. > :32:05.Helen Skelton now. Seven gold medals on offer today, some of the

:32:06. > :32:11.medallists will hope to add to their tally. Yes, last night was very

:32:12. > :32:17.exciting. Just for the record, don't ever shout at me when I'm on my

:32:18. > :32:22.carousel. We had a fantastic night in the swimming pool, it set us up

:32:23. > :32:28.brilliantly for today. Fran Halsall looked fantastic. She had a great

:32:29. > :32:34.night last night, the fastest ever woman over that freestyle, winning

:32:35. > :32:42.that, she looked fantastic in the butterfly, she has got the final

:32:43. > :32:45.tonight. I think she's just going to swim incredibly tonight, she was

:32:46. > :32:54.half a second above the rest of the field last night. When we say a

:32:55. > :32:56.textile suit, it is a swimming term, what happens with swimming

:32:57. > :32:59.manufacturers is they make faster and faster suits and they became

:33:00. > :33:04.almost like a rubber material and the world record has tumbled at

:33:05. > :33:11.every event. It took a while for some of them, her 50 freestyle is

:33:12. > :33:14.another point, but it that rubber suit would not have counted, that

:33:15. > :33:20.would have been the best textile suit, it would have been a world

:33:21. > :33:23.record. There are a lot of bases we might not have known before these

:33:24. > :33:30.games, the wider public, will see them again in action today. I will

:33:31. > :33:36.hand Andrew and Adrian, today really is going to be a showdown.

:33:37. > :33:40.Really looking forward to it particularly the men's 50 metres

:33:41. > :34:00.breaststroke. I think Fender book will start as

:34:01. > :34:02.favourite for the 50 today. -- Van Der Berg. Straight into the first

:34:03. > :34:21.race. No hanging about here. The first heat of two. The Canadian

:34:22. > :34:34.is the fastest seed. Simmons of England is in five. A beautiful

:34:35. > :34:42.start from Simmons. Look at this first 50 from Quigley, she is the

:34:43. > :34:48.leader, to the far right. She goes into the turn first, fantastic first

:34:49. > :34:56.50 metres. Simmons has good technique, goes a little bit longer.

:34:57. > :34:58.When the fastest swimmer in the water at the moment looks like

:34:59. > :35:18.quickly, -- Quigley. She's only 19. Caldwell, looking good, turning

:35:19. > :35:29.first. Simmonds getting back onto the

:35:30. > :35:46.shoulder of Caldwell, that's useful. It looks like Quigley is tailing off

:35:47. > :35:56.a little bit, her best time is just under 2.10.

:35:57. > :36:01.The first four looking OK to qualify, doesn't really matter where

:36:02. > :36:06.you place in these heaps, it's about how fast you go. -- these heaps. But

:36:07. > :36:23.this looks pretty good. Caldwell is working pretty hard down

:36:24. > :36:28.this last 50. I tell you what, she finished almost on her side, you are

:36:29. > :36:34.not allowed to go past halfway and turnover onto your stomach, that was

:36:35. > :36:44.pretty tight. Not a bad start. She did put an effort in the last 25

:36:45. > :36:49.metres, I felt, very strong. You don't often see a big buy septet to

:36:50. > :36:59.like that on the female swimmers. -- bicep tattooed.

:37:00. > :37:08.Underwater, very good, it is faster doing the butterfly kick

:37:09. > :37:09.underwater, look at that finish! I've got to tell you, that was

:37:10. > :37:21.close. Quigley is going to have to wait and

:37:22. > :37:23.see if she gets through, that is going to be tight, a dangerous place

:37:24. > :37:40.to finish, fourth. Championship silver-medallist, the

:37:41. > :37:56.fastest seed. That, I think, is named three. --

:37:57. > :37:57.Lane 3. There are three big Australians in this. Wilson in

:37:58. > :38:15.three. In name four, Belinda Hocking, the

:38:16. > :38:16.Commonwealth record holder. Jess Fullalove of England going in Lane

:38:17. > :38:40.2. The women's 200 Metres backstroke,

:38:41. > :38:41.decent start in Lane 5, as expected. Australia, having some fantastic

:38:42. > :38:48.quality in this event. Three of the top four of the world

:38:49. > :39:12.this year. Jessica Fullalove going well there,

:39:13. > :39:25.really nice to see her going/for/with Wilson. She is 18

:39:26. > :39:31.today, actually! Happy birthday! Happy birthday, Jess. And she is

:39:32. > :39:44.next to three big Aussies, what a lane assignment.

:39:45. > :39:50.Jess Fullalove was going pretty well but just starting to tail off. She

:39:51. > :39:53.could still like the final because the first heat wasn't that quick. --

:39:54. > :40:05.still make the final. As mentioned before, it is top eight

:40:06. > :40:08.times, if these five women beat 2.13... Quigley will be

:40:09. > :40:18.disappointed. These three Australian women, doing

:40:19. > :40:24.exactly as we thought in this first heat, just about enough. All in a

:40:25. > :40:28.row. It looks like Hocking might be trying to get the touch but doesn't

:40:29. > :40:32.matter at this point, frankly, they all look fairly comfortable. Look at

:40:33. > :40:41.that, a It was close in the end. They will

:40:42. > :40:49.certainly make It was close in the end. They will

:40:50. > :40:55.them. Quigley, I think may make it in in eighth. That pushes Jess

:40:56. > :41:08.Fullalove of England out of the final, she was not able to hold onto

:41:09. > :41:10.the early pace she set. The third 50 was where the damage was. Quigley,

:41:11. > :41:24.making it through. I think it will be a very different

:41:25. > :41:34.story tonight. A lot more competitive. An interesting finish

:41:35. > :41:43.stop could the Canadian stop the Australian 123?

:41:44. > :41:55.The top four from that second heat going through to the final.

:41:56. > :41:55.The top four from that second heat thing that would stop the Australian

:41:56. > :42:14.123 would be Hillary Caldwell. missed out on a medal, fourth and

:42:15. > :42:22.fifth. Will it spurred on? Is it a good psychological thing? Yes,

:42:23. > :42:29.Lizzie Simmonds is favoured towards the 200 Metres. Her swim last night

:42:30. > :42:33.was a bonus event, this is where she really wants to shine in Russia

:42:34. > :42:41.looked really in control, comfortable in that 200. She is

:42:42. > :42:48.amazing of the war. Our next event is the men's 50 metres breaststroke.

:42:49. > :42:55.We have been talking about the 200, then Adam missed out on a middle --

:42:56. > :42:57.medal last night, he had to come back from a second down at the turn,

:42:58. > :43:03.how impressed were you? Both back from a second down at the turn,

:43:04. > :43:07.were blown away. Becky knew something good was going to come,

:43:08. > :43:09.she is close to Adam, but when you take the world

:43:10. > :43:19.she is close to Adam, but when you away like this, he is on his

:43:20. > :43:23.she is close to Adam, but when you here... He just swum it perfectly.

:43:24. > :43:25.she is close to Adam, but when you Adam wasn't scared about having the

:43:26. > :43:30.world record-holder, he knew he would go out fast and he said,

:43:31. > :43:33.world record-holder, he knew he will race my own race. He picked his

:43:34. > :43:42.tempo up. He wanted that, you was hungry for that success. Neither of

:43:43. > :43:45.us swim breaststroke, but when you come off the wall there and you see

:43:46. > :43:51.the other person to metres ahead of you, it is difficult not to rush it,

:43:52. > :44:00.but he just felt his way back and slowly but surely reeled him in. A

:44:01. > :44:03.phenomenal morning, I know you were a victim barrister, but there is

:44:04. > :44:09.nothing wrong with that, that's how much it means to you. It's difficult

:44:10. > :44:15.for people who don't follow swimming registry to appreciate how much hard

:44:16. > :44:20.work goes on, he is a good lad and he deserved that. He has got a heart

:44:21. > :44:25.of gold, the thing I love about him and his coach is they come from a

:44:26. > :44:31.club programme. We have seen the Performance Center, but it is nice

:44:32. > :44:37.to see the guys from the clubs. I came from a club. Everyone is aiming

:44:38. > :44:42.for nationals, Adam has set himself the goal of winning an Olympic medal

:44:43. > :44:49.in two years and he has stuck to that. They don't train in a 50-metre

:44:50. > :44:54.facility, they don't have an amazing physio or nutritionist, but water is

:44:55. > :45:00.water and that's how they treat it. We have seen a huge shift here, with

:45:01. > :45:07.the UK nations press/, we have taken five out of six medals. That is

:45:08. > :45:13.phenomenal, we have a history in breaststroke, but that is one of the

:45:14. > :45:20.things, coming from a small club, without the big names around him, it

:45:21. > :45:31.makes it even more impressive. This is his first senior international

:45:32. > :45:36.meet stop --. Our key is the coach? I think the coach is the most

:45:37. > :45:42.important thing. I wouldn't have got anywhere without Bill, and Adams

:45:43. > :46:10.said the same about his coach, they are team unit. She will continue to

:46:11. > :46:18.train him. Presumably you need the right coach. You do not have access

:46:19. > :46:29.to that many coaches? Definitely not. This coach is the most

:46:30. > :46:40.decorated Commonwealth medallist, she has six medals. Mel has been

:46:41. > :46:45.there and done it herself. It is hard for a female coach as well to

:46:46. > :46:51.step into a very male oriented role. She said, I am here and I think this

:46:52. > :46:54.is right. She stands her ground. With all of the guys that have

:46:55. > :47:01.announced themselves, they will get a lot of attention and excitement,

:47:02. > :47:07.do you now need to keep their feet on the ground? You aim towards a

:47:08. > :47:12.competition, that is your meat, you do that and enjoy it. You have a

:47:13. > :47:18.holiday for a couple of weeks and when you come back in again, you

:47:19. > :47:21.think, what is next. I think the training partners and everybody gets

:47:22. > :47:29.back together and it is a reality check. You are not champion any

:47:30. > :47:47.more, get ready for the next stage. Adam is in the next event.

:47:48. > :48:02.Tully, there, from Scotland. Fully expect him to make it through these

:48:03. > :48:29.heats to the semifinals. Mark Tully from Scotland.

:48:30. > :48:42.The black cap of New Zealand going well in the centre. Tally going

:48:43. > :49:06.well. The crowd trying to raise his game.

:49:07. > :49:12.I am not sure I have seen an Indian able-bodied swimmer... They

:49:13. > :49:16.certainly have many in the Paralympics, but he could make it to

:49:17. > :49:34.do the semifinals as well. Ian black, there is a swimming name.

:49:35. > :49:35.Youngest winner of BBC sports personality of the year. Good

:49:36. > :49:50.knowledge! This is almost a repeat of the final

:49:51. > :50:09.of the breaststroke last night. Which Adam Peaty one. -- won.

:50:10. > :50:16.There is Adam Peaty. Lynn he knows he has his work cut out. He

:50:17. > :50:30.hopefully got sums sleep -- some sleep.

:50:31. > :50:42.They do not have to go all guns blazing in this heat. There is talk

:50:43. > :50:56.about what Ben does when he gets in the water. Adam, a fantastic swim.

:50:57. > :51:09.A new British record for Adam Peaty. I said he did not have to go that

:51:10. > :51:12.fast! LAUGHTER What do you do after you win the

:51:13. > :51:17.gold medal the night before and beaten the world record-holder? You

:51:18. > :51:26.do it again! Great start and great reaction. Van der Burgh is good

:51:27. > :51:36.underwater, all sorts of stuff goes on, but Adam Peaty is very, very

:51:37. > :51:46.strong. Very interesting leg kick, I wonder if you has adapted it

:51:47. > :51:53.strong. Very interesting leg kick, I record. The world record-holder is

:51:54. > :52:06.second, it is only the heats. Good swimming chaps. If that is not

:52:07. > :52:17.enough, look at this. Ross Murdoch in five. Let's see what he can do in

:52:18. > :52:20.the 50, bit short for him? He is a good sprinter. They heard his name

:52:21. > :52:48.being announced and there was a big war.

:52:49. > :52:56.Very good start up there in lane number two. The Malaysian now

:52:57. > :53:00.starting to come through, excuse me, that is the South African. Murdoch

:53:01. > :53:07.coming back. How can you come that is the South African. Murdoch

:53:08. > :53:17.on a 50 metres breaststroke? But he will hit the wall and win it.

:53:18. > :53:20.Reasonably fast but nothing like the Adam Peaty second-fastest second

:53:21. > :53:30.seed. That was a rocket. Adam Peaty second-fastest second

:53:31. > :53:49.good swim from Murdoch. You can tell when the confidence is high.

:53:50. > :54:39.It is a lot better from the swimmer in the white.

:54:40. > :54:51.The battle of the breaststroke continues. More heats coming up

:54:52. > :54:54.after the news. We've got factory boys and butchers'

:54:55. > :54:58.apprentices and office clerks Don't stop moving!

:54:59. > :55:03.If you go back you'll die! Back to Glasgow

:55:04. > :55:21.after a quick update on Three. Russia should be stripped of the

:55:22. > :55:24.right to host the 2018 World Cup. Nick Clegg wants it as part

:55:25. > :55:28.of sanctions following Israel has resumed its attacks

:55:29. > :55:32.on Gaza. It's after Palestinian militants

:55:33. > :55:35.fired rockets into Israel. Hamas had rejected an offer to

:55:36. > :55:39.extend a limited ceasefire. Big problems with baggage at Gatwick

:55:40. > :55:41.airport this morning. Passengers have been facing long

:55:42. > :55:44.delays to get their bags, But the England cricket captain says

:55:45. > :55:52.he's determined to carry on despite calls from Kevin Pietersen

:55:53. > :55:54.and others to quit. The third test with

:55:55. > :55:56.India starts today. And there for 42 years but gone

:55:57. > :55:59.in seconds. Three landmark cooling towers

:56:00. > :56:01.at Didcot power station They used 180 kilos

:56:02. > :56:06.of explosives early this morning. More from us later,

:56:07. > :56:08.right now back to Helen Yeah, I am looking for

:56:09. > :56:41.a Prince Charming. I don't think I'm ugly, but I don't

:56:42. > :56:44.think I'm, like, really pretty. I say, "You've got something

:56:45. > :57:25.on your bum." "Really?" And I say, talk about swimmers and say how

:57:26. > :57:31.lovely they are that we jinx them. We did not jinx at 11 -- Adam Peaty.

:57:32. > :57:34.lovely they are that we jinx them. We did not jinx at 11 -- I am

:57:35. > :57:37.shocked at how fast he went this morning. It is only through to the

:57:38. > :57:44.semifinals tonight, and Adam would not have got to bed until late. He

:57:45. > :57:49.will not have gone to sleep until about 2am at the earliest am so to

:57:50. > :57:55.say that he has gone that quick this morning, what else is to come? A

:57:56. > :58:02.great finish. The other thing is, when you on that way, in the

:58:03. > :58:14.swimming world, what tends to happen in Championships, you play through

:58:15. > :58:19.the heats. He is putting the pressure back on Cameron van der

:58:20. > :58:26.Burgh. He just does not want to lose anything! He wants to be able to say

:58:27. > :58:34.he would it all. Does there come a point when you have to concentrate

:58:35. > :58:39.on other distances? World-class swimmers do not do them all. The

:58:40. > :58:42.everyone is different. Sometimes if you are struggling with injuries,

:58:43. > :58:48.people come down and it is all dependent on the athlete. He said he

:58:49. > :58:53.was a lovely boy. Younger man! We have been chatting to him. That was

:58:54. > :58:55.amazing. A Commonwealth Games record and you did not even look out of

:58:56. > :59:06.breath. The adrenaline from last night paid

:59:07. > :59:12.off. I kept my cool. How was last night? Life changed yesterday for

:59:13. > :59:16.you for ever. There have been good times already. It is amazing. It is

:59:17. > :59:18.just a dream times already. It is amazing. It is

:59:19. > :59:21.just a at the moment. I woke up this morning and thought, did that really

:59:22. > :59:29.happened last night? I can't believe it. Speaking to family and friends

:59:30. > :59:32.as much, what time did you get to sleep? About three o'clock. I did

:59:33. > :59:41.not get in from the swimming pool last night till late, I left here at

:59:42. > :59:42.about 12. I got sleep for a few hours. Hopefully I will get a bit

:59:43. > :59:46.faster hours. Hopefully I will get a bit

:59:47. > :59:52.today. 26 points, here I come! Hopefully! Cheers. White had to put

:59:53. > :59:52.it into context, it is not just a medal

:59:53. > :59:56.Hopefully! Cheers. White had to put it into context, it he is winning.

:59:57. > :00:05.Is doing it against the world record-holder. It is exciting,

:00:06. > :00:10.looking to the world Championships and the Olympics in 2016, it gives

:00:11. > :00:15.these fresh boys are such confidence, because every time they

:00:16. > :00:18.step up at a National Championships, they are raising the best in the

:00:19. > :00:29.world and that is a huge experience for them. Let's talk about Anne

:00:30. > :00:48.Frank House all. She retained her title last night, and she looked

:00:49. > :00:56.awesome. Nel? Fran. Let's show a picture of her. She is now achieving

:00:57. > :00:59.great things. The transition must be difficult, coming out of the pool

:01:00. > :01:06.and then being the person behind the person. At a lot of the time, you

:01:07. > :01:16.find with swimmers, they make good coaches, because you know how hard

:01:17. > :01:19.to push the athletes and how to read them. But it is a never skilled,

:01:20. > :01:22.being a person that motivates somebody, because you are used to

:01:23. > :01:28.being motivated by somebody else. Swimmers are good at taking

:01:29. > :01:32.instruction, but now she is the one giving instruction. She has won the

:01:33. > :01:43.most Commonwealth medals of any woman, and she can explain that to

:01:44. > :01:47.somebody. She has felt it and she feels it. And if you are out of

:01:48. > :01:59.this, people do not appreciate that they have been working together for

:02:00. > :02:10.years. It does not happen overnight. Fran, her a lot of young coaches

:02:11. > :02:10.these days. They are new to it, they have the

:02:11. > :02:12.these days. They are new to it, they passion for the sport and the love

:02:13. > :02:17.for it. passion for the sport and the love

:02:18. > :02:23.working with Adam for six years, and that is just going to continue on to

:02:24. > :02:31.Rio. The relationship grows between them. And they bring in a new

:02:32. > :02:34.philosophy. When we have coaches around for a number of years, they

:02:35. > :02:39.have a set way of doing things. They tweak and change it. When you have

:02:40. > :02:43.people coming fresh out of the pool, it is like the new generation of

:02:44. > :02:47.kids, they read stuff and they are into more stuff, so they will have a

:02:48. > :02:50.different slant on how to train people. So it is nice to hear about

:02:51. > :02:57.the people behind the people, because we always say it is like

:02:58. > :02:59.Manchester United, Alex Ferguson, but in swimming turns, you only ever

:03:00. > :03:04.hear about the swimmer. but in swimming turns, you only ever

:03:05. > :03:11.all the parents. You are coming into this so young, you cannot do that

:03:12. > :03:12.without your parents driving you to the pool, washing your kit,

:03:13. > :03:16.without your parents driving you to up the pieces. This kind of game,

:03:17. > :03:22.there is an opportunity to remind people of that. We love a shot of

:03:23. > :03:26.the parents. Ross Murdoch's mum last night, brilliant! I love the family

:03:27. > :03:30.corner we have got going on. They get to hook their family afterwards

:03:31. > :03:34.and I love that. The family and the whole support system, it is not just

:03:35. > :03:39.that they are the taxi service or that they are funding it, they are

:03:40. > :03:42.everything. It means so much as an athlete to look about them. We can

:03:43. > :04:06.look up now to Andrew Jameson. Here is Emma McKeon, she won the 200

:04:07. > :04:23.metres freestyle already. The first of the seeded heat of the

:04:24. > :04:24.winning's 100 metres freestyle. Emma McKeon of Australia is the fastest

:04:25. > :04:34.seat. Amy Smith is next to the. McKeon of Australia is the fastest

:04:35. > :04:42.to see pass these Australians. Emma McKeon is the female son of it so

:04:43. > :04:50.far. Three gold medals and a bronze after three days.

:04:51. > :05:05.I don't think we can see beyond Emma McKeon.

:05:06. > :05:15.She is swimming away. She is working very hard. 54.1, it is a good time,

:05:16. > :05:22.but I have to say, she looked like she was working harder than a 54.1.

:05:23. > :05:30.She is a very good swimmer. She has it had a look up. It helps when you

:05:31. > :05:32.have got Australia's fastest three, you just look up and go, good look,

:05:33. > :05:48.mate! through to the semifinals. That is

:05:49. > :05:52.Emma McKeon, the 200 metres specialist, she has got clear water

:05:53. > :05:56.between her feet and the next swimmer. And she did most of the

:05:57. > :06:15.work on the second 50 metres. Here are the results.

:06:16. > :06:33.That is the first of the seeded heats. Bronte Campbell has not even

:06:34. > :06:51.swum in the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow yet.

:06:52. > :07:01.The slightly slower and younger of the to Campbell sisters, Bronte

:07:02. > :07:10.Campbell in lane four. She has just seen her team-mate, Emma McKeon set

:07:11. > :07:13.a reasonable time. It is a chance for her, I think they like to be

:07:14. > :07:21.next to each other, the Campbell sisters. If I were Bronte Campbell,

:07:22. > :07:33.I would still be trying to go for a fast one year. Interesting stroke.

:07:34. > :07:39.Very tight and clean. It does not look like she is working that hard.

:07:40. > :07:45.Nice and steady, not really working too hard. Vanderpool Wallace is

:07:46. > :07:53.going with her. Bronte Campbell, 54.4. That is almost 1.5 seconds

:07:54. > :08:00.slower than her earlier time this week. A walk in the park. It is

:08:01. > :08:05.interesting, if you have that much talent am a be able to turn the

:08:06. > :08:14.burners down a little bit for a morning swim, just to save some

:08:15. > :08:18.women. -- just to save something. Looking at the women leaving the

:08:19. > :08:19.water, she looked back her sister, who is getting ready for the next

:08:20. > :08:33.race. Bronte Campbell wins the second

:08:34. > :08:34.fastest seeded heat in the 100 metres freestyle. Vanderpool Wallace

:08:35. > :08:57.is second. Bronte Campbell's sister is the

:08:58. > :09:02.fastest coming into this heat. There she is, the fastest woman in the

:09:03. > :09:08.world this year on 100 metres freestyle. Yes, but she has to

:09:09. > :09:15.bounceback. Francesca Halsall has to bounceback this morning. Becky

:09:16. > :09:17.Turner from Sheffield. She was in the silver winning relay, English

:09:18. > :09:36.relay, with Francesca Halsall. The final heat of the winning's 100

:09:37. > :09:39.metres freestyle. Very interesting. Francesca Halsall dived in and

:09:40. > :09:47.straightaway briefed, the first thing she did. I have never seen

:09:48. > :09:51.that before. But anyway, Cate Campbell looks like she has gone for

:09:52. > :09:55.a very fast in this first 100 metres. James Gibson would not be

:09:56. > :10:01.asking his swimmers to breed on the first stroke. Francesca Halsall

:10:02. > :10:03.might be saving a bit for the second 50 metres, but she looks like she

:10:04. > :10:16.needs to shake off a few cobwebs. This is a stroll in the park for

:10:17. > :10:25.Cate Campbell. This is worrying, if you are from England. She looks very

:10:26. > :10:31.strong. Look at that, 53.2, not... An excellent stroke, lovely long,

:10:32. > :10:40.strong and powerful. What can she do when she rewinds it up inside the

:10:41. > :10:49.last 30 metres? What a fantastic race. Straight into the turn,

:10:50. > :10:53.rancher scalpel looks like she had to shake something off. A big night

:10:54. > :10:58.for her last night. We have the semifinals tonight, but Cate

:10:59. > :11:05.Campbell is the real threat for the gold medal.

:11:06. > :11:14.Cate Campbell will go into the final fastest, her sister will go into the

:11:15. > :11:17.semifinals as the fastest qualifier, and she will be right next to her

:11:18. > :11:20.sister, I think. We will have a look at that in a second. So Cate

:11:21. > :12:02.Campbell one that finally heat. That is the winning's 100 metres

:12:03. > :12:10.freestyle, and I am delighted to be joined in the commentary box by Marc

:12:11. > :12:15.Woods, five-time Paralympian, 12 times Paralympic medallist, four of

:12:16. > :12:23.them gold. Few better than this young lady, he will be the fastest

:12:24. > :12:27.tier, Sophie Pascoe of New Zealand. Yes, it will be an interesting race

:12:28. > :12:38.today. Sophie Pascoe is one of the best swimmers in the world. I fully

:12:39. > :12:43.expect her to come through and win this heat, and we don't have some of

:12:44. > :12:48.the English swimmers that we were expecting to be here. We are missing

:12:49. > :12:55.Claire Cashmore and Harriet league. The Times that they will do in this

:12:56. > :13:00.race, I would stake my house on it... Well, I will state your

:13:01. > :13:04.holiday home on it! That they would win a medal today. And they have not

:13:05. > :13:12.in selected, and we can get into more detail about it later, but the

:13:13. > :13:18.times they got at trials, around about 1.21, and I think that would

:13:19. > :13:23.be good enough to win a silver or bronze medal. Their best times would

:13:24. > :13:31.be challenging for a gold. It is a shame that we have not picked very

:13:32. > :13:35.many home nation swimmers. A bit disappointing. But we have seen

:13:36. > :13:39.three Paralympic races so far, three world records already a must

:13:40. > :13:43.absolutely brilliant swimming. Sophie Pascoe, the fastest seed

:13:44. > :13:44.here, is not currently the world record-holder, which is held by

:13:45. > :13:46.Jessica Sloan of Canada, but she's record-holder, which is held by

:13:47. > :13:59.whether Sophie Pascoe can just record-holder, which is held by

:14:00. > :14:03.world record. She will not do it in the heat, I am pretty sure of that.

:14:04. > :14:07.She does not need to and she has not got the competition here today. She

:14:08. > :14:30.will not get pushed by the other people in this field.

:14:31. > :14:33.competition. Right in the centre, Sophie Pascoe of New Zealand with

:14:34. > :14:39.the black cap looking very good already. Typically you talk about

:14:40. > :14:45.breaststroke already. Typically you talk about

:14:46. > :14:49.and driven by the legs, but Sophie is a leg amputee but she still

:14:50. > :14:55.manages to get pretty good drive. The bulk of the power coming from

:14:56. > :15:05.the arms. She is by far the strongest swimmer in this event

:15:06. > :15:09.today. You have got to marvel at someone who can do breaststroke that

:15:10. > :15:13.well with 70% of the driver of the stroke generally coming from the

:15:14. > :15:17.legs and she is an amputee. She seems to be so symmetrical as well.

:15:18. > :15:25.Yes I was going to say, very balanced and what she does. Swimming

:15:26. > :15:26.is about generating force that point you towards the end wall. Looking

:15:27. > :15:31.very comfortable. I you towards the end wall. Looking

:15:32. > :15:44.a little bit out from you towards the end wall. Looking

:15:45. > :15:51.record, 1.16 point nine. Very good swim from Erin Davies, 13 years of

:15:52. > :15:54.age down at the bottom there for Scotland, she is the youngest

:15:55. > :16:08.competitor ever bought in Scotland at the Commonwealth Games in any

:16:09. > :16:14.sport. -- ever, for Scotland. I am delighted to see her do

:16:15. > :16:14.sport. -- ever, for Scotland. I am morning. She has done

:16:15. > :16:21.sport. -- ever, for Scotland. I am getting a decent lane for the final.

:16:22. > :16:25.She is from Shetland, the community they are looked after her so well. I

:16:26. > :16:29.was talking to they are looked after her so well. I

:16:30. > :16:59.before, Edward lovely to talk The 13-year-old from Shetland, only

:17:00. > :17:01.three seconds down. Wonderful to see that, let's hope she does as well

:17:02. > :17:11.the night in the final. Wonderful to see, and she is 13

:17:12. > :17:17.years old, the youngest member of the Scottish team, what an

:17:18. > :17:22.experience she must be having. We have seen from a couple of

:17:23. > :17:27.swimmers, coming to the village, being part of the team, she would

:17:28. > :17:29.never have been to an international meet the team, she would never have

:17:30. > :17:32.been to an international meet before let alone being there with 4000

:17:33. > :17:38.people around you and doing her best time by four seconds this morning.

:17:39. > :17:45.When you are younger you get huge improvements, how exciting, she has

:17:46. > :17:52.got a chance, possibly, not far away from winning it. Apparently she did

:17:53. > :17:55.not tell a lot of her friends she was coming to the Commonwealth

:17:56. > :17:59.Games, if you are watching an Shetland you should be very proud of

:18:00. > :18:02.her. It is time to turn our attention to another exciting young

:18:03. > :18:07.prospect in the form of Siobhan-Marie O'Connor as she gets

:18:08. > :18:08.ready for her favourite event, the 200 metre individual medley. Let's

:18:09. > :18:18.hear more about her. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor, the

:18:19. > :18:26.youngster from Bath, such a talent and improving all the time. I have

:18:27. > :18:34.expectations that I have put on myself, I have goals. Last year I

:18:35. > :18:38.was aiming to make the final at the worlds and it almost didn't happen.

:18:39. > :18:43.This is kind of the first year I have got a lot of events so it is a

:18:44. > :18:49.massive challenge but it is nice because the more races that you do

:18:50. > :18:54.the more opportunities you have got. The 200 metre medley is my favourite

:18:55. > :19:00.event. It is my best event, the event I love, the one that has been

:19:01. > :19:03.my main sort of focus each year. Some incredibly fast British girls

:19:04. > :19:11.and Australian girls. Alicia Coutts is one of my main rivals. She is a

:19:12. > :19:20.multi-Olympic medallist, very experienced and a very good swimmer.

:19:21. > :19:23.Hannah Miley is arrival as well. The first time I finished in front of

:19:24. > :19:30.her it was something that I was shocked with. I have always looked

:19:31. > :19:34.up to her, she is such a good role model and a very good friend of

:19:35. > :19:39.mine. She is someone that you can take a lot from, she works so hard

:19:40. > :19:45.and I have taken a lot of advice from her. You have to work hard and

:19:46. > :19:48.other people that you looked up to become your rivals and that is

:19:49. > :19:53.something I am trying to do. This is what I train for everyday. Getting

:19:54. > :20:03.in the swimming pool in the early hours, the competitions, this year

:20:04. > :20:06.it is the coming of games. I am laughing because they train very

:20:07. > :20:13.hard, I went down to meet them, tried to join the training session

:20:14. > :20:19.and fell off a box. Interestingly she talks about the training

:20:20. > :20:22.sessions, on the flip side we have got Hannah Miley going in the heat

:20:23. > :20:25.before Siobhan-Marie O'Connor and she is completely on her own, how

:20:26. > :20:31.different and experience will baby having? Completely different, I

:20:32. > :20:39.think you bounce off the rest of your team-mates, the list is endless

:20:40. > :20:41.from Bath University so she probably knew before she even started that

:20:42. > :20:46.she would have a good meet because of that, whereas Hannah has to go by

:20:47. > :20:55.what she is doing and focuses solely on herself will stop Hannah has had

:20:56. > :20:59.a great meet so far. It means a lot to Hannah but this is not the one

:21:00. > :21:07.she has been solely training for, I think this is more Siobhan's event.

:21:08. > :21:14.You have different personalities, I am very sociable, I love having

:21:15. > :21:25.training partners. As a sprinter you do fast stuff and said around and

:21:26. > :21:36.chat a lot. When you have got so many of us and we are also

:21:37. > :21:44.talented. There are different mindsets, everyone has got different

:21:45. > :21:49.build and make up an different mindset. I take my hat off to Hannah

:21:50. > :21:54.as she can go and put her head in the water and do her sessions day in

:21:55. > :22:02.and day out on her own. It is unbelievably hard, what Becky had

:22:03. > :22:07.was some guys around you, people you could train with and push you.

:22:08. > :22:32.Quickly, take it away, help me. COMMENTATOR: Hannah Miley starts the

:22:33. > :22:40.second fastest seat. -- seed. Sophie Allen of England in the third

:22:41. > :22:44.fastest coming into this games. Hannah Miley, what a brilliant 400

:22:45. > :22:47.metres medley she did in that first night, the pressure was

:22:48. > :22:53.unbelievable, you could feel it in this building. Swimming fans, not

:22:54. > :22:55.just the Scottish, this building. Swimming fans, not

:22:56. > :23:07.just everyone really cheering for her. Hannah Miley is well within

:23:08. > :23:15.distance of them. It is good to see Sophie swimming so well, not had the

:23:16. > :23:20.best of times since the trials. Sophie Allen in the right of the

:23:21. > :23:35.yellow lane lines, Hannah Miley catching them on the backstroke.

:23:36. > :23:39.Marni Oldershaw of Canada. Sophie Allen the first to turn at the

:23:40. > :23:44.halfway in the first of these seats. Hannah Miley, expect her to push the

:23:45. > :24:00.stroke. It will be interesting to see what

:24:01. > :24:06.time Hannah Miley posts. Have got to make the final, that is job number

:24:07. > :24:12.one, no semifinals, no mistakes. Hannah Miley is working this

:24:13. > :24:18.breaststroke as hard as she can. Trains so many miles in the pool,

:24:19. > :24:23.she is pushing it, I wonder if she will ease off when she realises she

:24:24. > :24:27.has broken the field? Sophie Allen struggling to keep the pace on the

:24:28. > :24:34.breaststroke, she herself is strong the breast stroke, but Hannah Miley

:24:35. > :24:43.looking to be easing back slightly. Hannah Miley will win the first of

:24:44. > :24:55.the seeded heats. Looked really comfortable in the end. Second was

:24:56. > :25:04.Sophie Allen of England. Bit slower than I thought it was going to be I

:25:05. > :25:09.have two say. Ross of South Africa was third. Hannah work that's quite

:25:10. > :25:15.hard, it was a little slower than we hard, it was a little slower than we

:25:16. > :25:20.thought maybe. We will have to see what happens in the next couple of

:25:21. > :25:37.heats. Hannah what happens in the next couple of

:25:38. > :25:49.eight swimmers from the heats make it through to the final. Now,

:25:50. > :26:00.Siobhan-Marie O'Connor, this will be interesting, I think she could be

:26:01. > :26:08.going into these as the favourite. Absolutely, fantastic talent,

:26:09. > :26:09.multi-medallist in the Commonwealth Games at just 18 years old. Three

:26:10. > :26:29.silver medals. We have also got Rachel Williams of

:26:30. > :26:39.Wales in Lane 2. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor always gets a great start

:26:40. > :26:51.and that was another. Sirica McMann of Ireland also in the

:26:52. > :26:57.Emily Seebohm already swam the backstroke today. Does not look like

:26:58. > :27:02.she is working this one. backstroke today. Does not look like

:27:03. > :27:08.length were she might get an advantage. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor

:27:09. > :27:16.doing very well indeed. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor's backstroke

:27:17. > :27:24.actually looking pretty good. She has taken a metre

:27:25. > :27:24.actually looking pretty good. She Seebohm. It seems like Emily Seebohm

:27:25. > :27:56.This is encouraging for the is just swimming through this round.

:27:57. > :27:58.This is encouraging for the winners. -- English swimmers. This

:27:59. > :28:10.is fascinating, look how far ahead she is. This is right on

:28:11. > :28:15.Commonwealth Games record pace. Just outside of the British record pace.

:28:16. > :28:20.Commonwealth Games record pace. Just Perhaps easing off a little now, but

:28:21. > :28:27.that is really fast. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor, she was a silver medallist

:28:28. > :28:35.in the 200 meter freestyle, she is destroying a decent heat here. Eased

:28:36. > :28:46.off quite a lot. Emily Seebohm second. Not sure that will

:28:47. > :28:51.off quite a lot. Emily Seebohm quick enough to get through to the

:28:52. > :28:59.final for the Northern Irish swimmer but still a good effort. Really

:29:00. > :29:04.strong from the goal, good breaststroke, Emily Seebohm working

:29:05. > :29:10.hard on the breaststroke, I cannot imagine that she will not be on the

:29:11. > :29:12.podium tonight, O'Connor. She has a real fighting chance of the gold

:29:13. > :29:30.medal. with Hannah Miley and Amy Wilmot

:29:31. > :29:39.again. Confirmation of the second to last heat.

:29:40. > :30:01.The final heat of the 200 metres medley, Alicia Coutts in lane four.

:30:02. > :30:08.There is Amy Wilmot. She will be looking for a better swim. She did

:30:09. > :30:15.well to get the silver medal in the 400 metres. Our expectations are for

:30:16. > :30:22.the gold medal. Let's see how she performs in the first length. The

:30:23. > :30:27.final heat of the women's 200 metres individual medley, and the fastest

:30:28. > :30:32.of the Commonwealth this year is Alicia Coutts of Australia. Amy

:30:33. > :30:38.Wilmot is closer to us in the black cat. Alicia Coutts should have won

:30:39. > :30:45.the individual 100 metres in butterfly. She came fourth. She is

:30:46. > :30:51.using the first length advantage that she has. She went out quickly

:30:52. > :31:00.in the freestyle relay. She did not really have the stamina. She is very

:31:01. > :31:03.good on the starts and turns, and when it gets to the breaststroke,

:31:04. > :31:17.that is when we might see that stamina pay. Just catching up a

:31:18. > :31:21.little bit on Alicia Coutts. Her head is moving from side to side

:31:22. > :31:22.quite a lot, and Amy Wilmot is really working that backstroke leg

:31:23. > :31:33.very hard. Pickering of Canada is in third

:31:34. > :31:35.place. Amy Wilmot is starting to push this breaststroke, but the

:31:36. > :31:40.defending champion of this 200 metres medley, the Olympic

:31:41. > :31:48.silver-medallist, Alicia Coutts. She is looking better. Amy Wilmot is

:31:49. > :31:55.working a bit harder. You can see the stroke rate. She's probably

:31:56. > :31:59.doing five or six more strokes on this length than Alicia Coutts would

:32:00. > :32:04.have done. Very nice, straight in, has a look, Amy Wilmot has caught up

:32:05. > :32:11.a bit, but still just under one second behind.

:32:12. > :32:18.I was wondering what tactics Alicia Coutts would take. Do you really

:32:19. > :32:23.blasted it just to prove that you can, or do you take it relatively

:32:24. > :32:27.easily? She seems to have worked very hard to 150 metres and is

:32:28. > :32:32.clearly easing off now. Amy Wilmot is coming back for England. These

:32:33. > :32:38.two will qualify fairly comfortably. Alicia Coutts WinZip. She will go

:32:39. > :32:46.into the final as the second fastest. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor will

:32:47. > :32:53.go in fastest. That will be a great final tonight. Amy Wilmot second.

:32:54. > :32:59.The first five swimmers are all within half a second of each other.

:33:00. > :33:09.She did a good race there. I was pleased that she was able to step

:33:10. > :33:25.up. She got the pacing wrong, a really terrible seconds in -- second

:33:26. > :33:28.hundred metres. She knows she is winning, and this freestyle was

:33:29. > :33:30.definitely easing off, looking as she was touching to men sure she got

:33:31. > :33:46.the touch. You don't do that if you are

:33:47. > :33:51.finishing in a medal race. Was that a nervous look, was that just to

:33:52. > :33:53.check and see? I think it was to check and see? I think it was today

:33:54. > :34:32.checking in look. It is going to be an exciting final.

:34:33. > :34:35.Normally our swimmers are out of breath when they finish, but I

:34:36. > :34:41.suspect Siobhan-Marie O'Connor might not be in that state.

:34:42. > :34:45.A really comfortable morning swim. Are you putting your cards out

:34:46. > :34:50.there? Definitely. I had a good heat swim. That was one of the quickest

:34:51. > :34:53.times I have done this morning. It is always had coming back and doing

:34:54. > :34:58.it in the morning after a late finish last night, but you have to

:34:59. > :35:00.try and rest of bit now. When you came into this, you probably thought

:35:01. > :35:04.that Alicia Coutts would be your biggest rival, but maybe Hannah

:35:05. > :35:10.that Alicia Coutts would be your Miley now? Definitely, Hannah is

:35:11. > :35:13.amazing at the moment. She's a great competitor and she is going to give

:35:14. > :35:19.it everything tonight. It will be a good race, and we will just see what

:35:20. > :35:23.happens. You have a good collection of silver and bronze medals, but you

:35:24. > :35:28.would like a gold one! Obviously, yes. That would be great. I was

:35:29. > :35:36.ranked second coming in and there were so many quick girls in there.

:35:37. > :35:42.We will see what happens. I would not bet against you! Good luck.

:35:43. > :35:54.I love should -- Siobhan-Marie O'Connor's attitude. She does not

:35:55. > :36:01.seem to be affected by it at all. She sticks to her own race plan. It

:36:02. > :36:06.is only a matter of time before the 1 cent gets that tattooed!

:36:07. > :36:14.You have had a couple of days to chill and put in a personal best

:36:15. > :36:19.time in the 400 metres. This morning I felt quite good and it is just

:36:20. > :36:28.about getting in and getting another swim out of the way. I am quite

:36:29. > :36:29.happy with the swim and the time. Fingers crossed, tonight I can get

:36:30. > :36:36.within the medals. Fingers crossed, tonight I can get

:36:37. > :36:40.have that strength in the last 50 metres to chase people down. It is a

:36:41. > :36:44.bit comforting knowing that I am stronger than some of the girls in

:36:45. > :36:49.no. I know I have to be there or thereabouts in the first 100 metres

:36:50. > :36:54.and I have got every chance of fighting my way down the second 100

:36:55. > :36:57.metres. I imagine it will be really quick and I will need a personal

:36:58. > :37:04.best to get in there with the medals.

:37:05. > :37:07.best to get in there with the Aimee Wilmott did seem a bit flat

:37:08. > :37:12.there. She has to think positive and get the job done. Income of one

:37:13. > :37:19.place and if you do not think it went to plan, the bottom line is

:37:20. > :37:23.that Hannah Miley is one exceptionally well, Aimee Wilmott is

:37:24. > :37:26.one exceptionally well, it is on good form. We all have our own

:37:27. > :37:26.expectations and our own demons, and when things are not

:37:27. > :37:35.expectations and our own demons, and want them to go, but she swimming

:37:36. > :37:39.great. She has to get out there and do what she can do. It is hard for

:37:40. > :37:44.Aimee Wilmott as well, because she knows that Hannah is on form and

:37:45. > :37:49.Siobhan-Marie O'Connor is on form. They are having the event of their

:37:50. > :37:50.lives. I may she did not get the result that she wanted.

:37:51. > :37:56.lives. I may she did not get the hard in that position to have some

:37:57. > :37:58.resilient and fight back. Anybody in any job or

:37:59. > :37:59.resilient and fight back. Anybody in being the best that you can be, and

:38:00. > :38:02.on the given day, if you give being the best that you can be, and

:38:03. > :38:06.everything and that is as good as you are, and

:38:07. > :38:07.everything and that is as good as somebody, you have to take your hat

:38:08. > :38:14.off to them. We have somebody, you have to take your hat

:38:15. > :38:17.nations, swimming much slower than other people, they are coming in and

:38:18. > :38:21.competing against a world-class field. It is not really the friendly

:38:22. > :38:27.competing against a world-class games, is it? There are a lot of

:38:28. > :38:28.file of man swimmers -- there are a lot of swimmers from the Isle of

:38:29. > :38:44.Man. It is quite an intimidating place.

:38:45. > :38:49.It is great experience. They get to come out here and race with 4000

:38:50. > :38:54.people all cheering for you, getting involved with some of the best

:38:55. > :38:58.people in the world, they get to race them, and you do not often find

:38:59. > :39:03.that they will get that experience again, especially on home turf.

:39:04. > :39:21.Talking about the best in the world, we had chapel aglow -- Chad le Clos

:39:22. > :39:28.in action last night. He did not look like he was even trying! It was

:39:29. > :39:33.an exceptional swim. He did not anticipate beating Michael Phelps

:39:34. > :39:47.when he did. But coming in here, he does not need to be at full tilt to

:39:48. > :40:00.win the races. Let's just celebrate that! And proud was awesome. Chad le

:40:01. > :40:06.Clos seems to be playing a game for swimmers, it is quite a bit thing

:40:07. > :40:10.not to shave down. That might have affected him. He seems to be

:40:11. > :40:14.enjoying it all, and rightly so. Yes, and we can enjoy Chad le Clos

:40:15. > :40:17.in a few minutes. But now we turn our attention to the third heat of

:40:18. > :40:23.the men's 100 metres butterfly. The first of the C. Diff leads -- of

:40:24. > :40:52.the seeded heats. What was your best time for

:40:53. > :41:08.butterfly? It was 100 and years ago, 53 point three. Not for offer.

:41:09. > :41:22.The first of the seeded heats of the 100 metres butterfly.

:41:23. > :41:34.A funny straight in the centre in that yellow hat. As expected,

:41:35. > :41:40.Dunford is the swimmer going out fast. He has been around for a

:41:41. > :42:01.while, the world Championships in 2005. The question is whether he can

:42:02. > :42:09.hold on. Great sprinter technician, fantastic swim to win this one.

:42:10. > :42:15.D'Orsogna is second. Dunford went out for it, and on the 50 metres

:42:16. > :42:22.butterfly, he was OK, but I think he was ninth in the end. Even though

:42:23. > :42:27.there are ten lanes here, they do not use Laney zero and lane nine.

:42:28. > :42:30.Good underwater. A bit of movement with the head. It is faster doing

:42:31. > :42:38.that underwater kick in butterfly with a tight streamline and it is

:42:39. > :42:44.above the water. 53.27, winning that first seeded heat. You would be

:42:45. > :42:50.ranked second at the moment! Impressive. Looking at the

:42:51. > :42:55.breaststroke, my best time was way off the pace. Same generation, we

:42:56. > :42:59.are, we are still both old. That was about 26 years ago, I was about

:43:00. > :43:05.three seconds off, but you are less than half a second off. The second

:43:06. > :43:07.to last it, Christopher Wright of Australia, with Tom Laxton in lane

:43:08. > :43:26.five. What a wonderful opportunity to make

:43:27. > :43:31.this semifinal. But really, Christopher Wright, with a lifetime

:43:32. > :43:45.best of 52.1, I imagine we will see our first 52 second butterfly here.

:43:46. > :43:57.The first of this, if you go 15.1 metres, you are disqualified

:43:58. > :44:05.underwater, so not a good idea, but Adam Barrett has gone off like a

:44:06. > :44:13.shot. Tom Laxton and Barrett are both James Gibson's swimmers.

:44:14. > :44:22.They are heading the field at 50 metres. Great to see how this all

:44:23. > :44:28.there in the top three as well. -- Halsall.

:44:29. > :44:35.A good opportunity to get in there. Christopher Wright is coming back

:44:36. > :44:45.for Australia. Barrett swam well there. We have seen our first 52

:44:46. > :44:51.second 100 metres butterfly. Adam Barrett is in second place with

:44:52. > :45:01.53.1. And Tom Laxton of Wales, 53.4, in third place. They will certainly

:45:02. > :45:02.make it through to the semifinals. Most reaction to the gun from the

:45:03. > :45:09.man in Lane 7. -- nice reaction. Most reaction to the gun from the

:45:10. > :45:24.That is beautiful underwater, look at that. Chris Wright finishing

:45:25. > :45:34.well. The final 25 very strong. Grant Halsall with a great chance of

:45:35. > :45:41.making it as well in fifth. The final heat of the men's 100 metres

:45:42. > :45:50.butterfly and the Olympic champion Chad Le Clos. Will be interesting to

:45:51. > :46:00.see James Guy to 100 metres butterfly, and excellent

:46:01. > :46:07.freestyler. From Lane 7. Very versatile. There is Chad le Clos. I

:46:08. > :46:12.am looking forward to seeing how James Guy gets on. Really good swim

:46:13. > :46:31.at the British trials. The world champion on the 100 and

:46:32. > :46:40.200 metres butterfly, very good start right in the centre from Chad

:46:41. > :46:43.Le Clos. I would like him to stop looking around, but bizarrely he is

:46:44. > :46:48.the only guy I have seen that when he does look around and see someone,

:46:49. > :47:03.he just looked to his right, and then he goes faster. Fantastic fly.

:47:04. > :47:05.Looks to the left, checking out where his competitors are. You will

:47:06. > :47:23.have a couple more before he finishes. Quite

:47:24. > :47:27.morning stroll. Every single stroke. He is just saying hello. It is

:47:28. > :47:42.incredible. It is a bit like you same bolt -- you same bolt -- Usain

:47:43. > :47:59.Bolt. Look

:48:00. > :48:03.Very disciplined in the water. That was probably the most disciplined

:48:04. > :48:20.part of his race. The start and the turn were strong there. Gets his

:48:21. > :48:22.goggles around his neck. He is the world champion, you can do what you

:48:23. > :48:34.like when you are the world champion. James Guy did well. He

:48:35. > :48:45.will be into the semifinals this evening. Confirmation there. Three

:48:46. > :48:57.Australians there. Adam Barrett has done well to get there. We could get

:48:58. > :49:03.quite a few home nations in the final. Grant Halsall, he has got a

:49:04. > :49:09.good chance of making the final as well.

:49:10. > :49:21.Chad le Clos, swimming 's answer to Usain Bolt, but some people don't

:49:22. > :49:25.like it because Usain Bolt is a bit cocky. Yes, but Chad is not like

:49:26. > :49:36.that. Every sport needs a character. cocky. Yes, but Chad is not like

:49:37. > :49:37.It is not arrogance, it is confidence. We need a showman

:49:38. > :49:47.sometime. Let's hear from him. confidence. We need a showman

:49:48. > :49:52.have orders from the boys to go why are you looking at everyone? It is

:49:53. > :49:57.such a bad are you looking at everyone? It is

:49:58. > :49:59.have always been like that, when I was younger. In the seats and the

:50:00. > :50:01.semifinals I like to know was younger. In the seats and the

:50:02. > :50:08.am. -- in the heats. was younger. In the seats and the

:50:09. > :50:15.sporting everyone and knowing where you need to put more effort? Yes, I

:50:16. > :50:27.don't want to go too hard or too easy. I just want to make sure that

:50:28. > :50:35.I win my heat. You are such a cool guy, we had Usain Bolt coming in

:50:36. > :50:51.yesterday, and you have sort of had that tag put on you? How do you feel

:50:52. > :50:55.about his comeback? I think it is great for the sport that he is

:50:56. > :51:08.coming back. I hope I can race him again. We will see. All he needs now

:51:09. > :51:15.is a hand move, you said that Ross Murdoch needed one. Yes we tried to

:51:16. > :51:19.come up with one but we couldn't. Ross Murdoch will be joining us in

:51:20. > :51:25.about ten, 15 minutes time. If you want to hear from him, no one has

:51:26. > :51:33.spoke to him yet, I will be quick because Becky says he needs to get

:51:34. > :51:42.back. Women's 100 meter breast rock, a lot of home nations interest --

:51:43. > :51:49.breaststroke. Corrie Scott got a bronze medal in the 50 metres.

:51:50. > :51:54.Sophie Allen has just swum the 200 meter medley, she is coming back to

:51:55. > :52:01.do the 100 meter breast talk and you have got Sophie Taylor who has had a

:52:02. > :52:05.bit hit and miss meat. I am interested to see where her training

:52:06. > :52:14.has been targeting and if this is her event. We talk about getting

:52:15. > :52:21.experience, a part of that has to be psychological experience, becoming

:52:22. > :52:25.battle Hardy. Yes, it is how you turn things around when they are not

:52:26. > :52:35.going well, we all have good days, bad days and in different days.

:52:36. > :52:37.Coming forth and not coming away with something around your neck

:52:38. > :52:46.carts so it is about how you come back from that. -- hurts. I saw it

:52:47. > :52:49.with Alicia Coutts before, she has not looked good but then all of a

:52:50. > :52:56.sudden she did look good. One day can make a huge difference. You want

:52:57. > :53:00.to say to the youngsters that you can bounce back, Liam Tancock is a

:53:01. > :53:04.great example of that. A lot of people getting in touch on Twitter

:53:05. > :53:11.asking about the fourth lane, why is that the most prized? I like being

:53:12. > :53:18.in the middle because you can see everyone. If you are in Lane 1 you

:53:19. > :53:23.cannot see what is going on, in the middle you can look both ways. I

:53:24. > :53:29.think Chad would hate being on the outside because he looks around so

:53:30. > :53:33.much. The reason it is the way it is is that what they like for

:53:34. > :53:41.television is an arrow formation, the fastest lane in four, the

:53:42. > :53:46.fastest ones in the middle so it should be like this when you come to

:53:47. > :53:49.watch the race. If you are the fastest qualifier you get to sit in

:53:50. > :53:55.the middle and you can dictate the race and that more. It is your price

:53:56. > :54:02.from going fast. Essentially it does not matter. The other thing people

:54:03. > :54:13.are asking about is the use of the word snatch for sprinters. Explain

:54:14. > :54:26.what you mean. When people are diving in, they try too hard and

:54:27. > :54:33.slept the water -- slip the water. In the water it is if you don't

:54:34. > :54:36.catch it properly. In the 50 metres if you start the first couple of

:54:37. > :54:40.strokes relaxed and the adrenaline is pumping and you will be going

:54:41. > :54:46.help level, but if you are blacks and then pick it up, catch the

:54:47. > :54:52.water. People have been making a lot of the marginal gains in cycling,

:54:53. > :54:58.but in swimming that is applicable as well. You said yesterday you

:54:59. > :55:06.would have been quicker, does facial here make a difference? Shaving

:55:07. > :55:11.down, you can see stubble on the face of Chad, it does make a bit of

:55:12. > :55:16.difference, not much, but it is more psychological, it is about feeling

:55:17. > :55:37.smooth in the water. I think especially with male lead here. --

:55:38. > :55:40.lead here -- leg hair. It is amazing to think that something so little

:55:41. > :55:45.can make such a little difference, that is why I always laugh when

:55:46. > :55:49.people say psychological factors do not matter, because they do. Over to

:55:50. > :56:10.the third heat. Sally Hunter foster the 29-year-old

:56:11. > :56:17.Australian. We are seeing the men getting older and still going

:56:18. > :56:25.through, not so much on the women's side.

:56:26. > :56:42.This the first of the CD heats. You have got the silver medallist from

:56:43. > :56:55.the 200 metres, Sally Hunter, against the gold medallist from the

:56:56. > :56:57.50th. -- 50. Katie Armitage of Scotland getting the cheer from the

:56:58. > :57:09.crowd. Sally Hunter picking up now, the

:57:10. > :57:12.yellow cap in the middle of the two but a great swim from Katie

:57:13. > :57:19.Armitage, that is her on the underwater shot. We have not seen

:57:20. > :57:36.too much of this at the Commonwealth Games but this is eight

:57:37. > :57:40.not too surprising that Sally Hunter wins the heat but Katie Armitage

:57:41. > :57:58.with the great swim to get second. Rising to the occasion as an number

:57:59. > :58:04.of the Scottish team have done. Sally Hunter being able to bring her

:58:05. > :58:20.speed to the forefront. Chloe Tutton swam well. Can Laura

:58:21. > :58:32.Kinley Chloe Tutton swam well. Can Laura

:58:33. > :58:48.so far but not quite won Chloe Tutton swam well. Can Laura

:58:49. > :58:49.Sophie Allen and Molly Renshaw of England. Kathryn Johnstone of

:58:50. > :59:15.Scotland. best -- breaststroke. She was great

:59:16. > :59:16.on the 50, the 200 was not bad, so I think 100 could be a good distance

:59:17. > :59:34.for her. We have got the two English girls in

:59:35. > :59:39.lane five and lane six. A real home country presence in this particular

:59:40. > :59:46.heat. Ali ActiveSync, great off the block, great first 25 metres. She

:59:47. > :59:55.will take Johnson along with her. Atkinson really is powerful, going

:59:56. > :00:09.well. Atkinson first, Johnston second, so Rita McMahon for Northern

:00:10. > :00:13.Ireland doing well as well. If you look to the far left of the shot,

:00:14. > :00:17.her pace of stroke rate is so much slower than Atkinson's. You cannot

:00:18. > :00:21.do the 200 metres slower than Atkinson's. You cannot

:00:22. > :00:29.You need to speeded up. Five metres slower than Atkinson's. You cannot

:00:30. > :00:36.to go, and Ali Atkinson of Jamaica, slower than Atkinson's. You cannot

:00:37. > :00:43.a really good swim. Silver medallist on the 50 metres, and she really

:00:44. > :00:48.went for it. McMahon, second. A fantastic last 20 metres. She picked

:00:49. > :00:51.up the stroke rate. I would love to see her and her coach look at that

:00:52. > :00:55.video before their semifinals and really think about stroke rate,

:00:56. > :01:05.because she has just given too much away on that first 50 metres.

:01:06. > :01:19.because she has just given too much three seeded heats for Jamaica.

:01:20. > :01:25.The final heat of the women's 100 metres best stroke, with Sophie

:01:26. > :01:35.Taylor right in the centre. She did not have a great 200 metres. She

:01:36. > :01:41.needs to blow away the 200 metres, get rid of the cobwebs, and getting

:01:42. > :01:44.a decent one. Tactically? She had a good 50 metres. She was disappointed

:01:45. > :01:49.with the 200 metres and she will need to go back to the memory of the

:01:50. > :01:50.50 metres. Look at that, with the hat almost over the goggles there.

:01:51. > :02:06.We saw this before. She wears a hat really low. Sophie

:02:07. > :02:14.Taylor there, from Leeds, she has been training in London.

:02:15. > :02:19.The final heat of the women's 100 metres breaststroke. Sophie Taylor

:02:20. > :02:28.of England is right in the middle, the new British record holder, but

:02:29. > :02:32.Corrie Scott is in six. A really big shot, just do your best, have a

:02:33. > :02:40.fight. A really tough Scottish woman. A bronze medal in the 50

:02:41. > :02:44.metres. It was Taylor in the fourth place, and Corrie Scott got the

:02:45. > :02:49.bronze. Taylor is a lot better here, a lot better than the 200 metres,

:02:50. > :02:55.back to the form she's showed in the 50 metres. Van Beilen of Canada is

:02:56. > :03:01.doing well. She has an excellent Aryan coach, excellent pedigree. --

:03:02. > :03:16.excellent print Aryan coach. Taylor is going well in a black cat

:03:17. > :03:22.of England in the centre there. Corrie Scott is tying up a bit

:03:23. > :03:33.inside this last 10m. Sophie Taylor wins it. A good swim from her.

:03:34. > :03:42.Van Beilen of Canada is in third place. Smith of Canada is in fourth

:03:43. > :03:49.place, and Corrie Scott is in fifth place. They will certainly all get

:03:50. > :03:53.through to the semifinals. This is a lot better from Taylor, fantastic to

:03:54. > :03:56.see her confidence, to come back again from that 200 metres. She has

:03:57. > :04:01.been spending time in Plymouth with John Road, and then she's going to

:04:02. > :04:04.London after the Commonwealth Games, with a programme that has been set

:04:05. > :04:13.up in the Olympic pool. She will be joining with Lisa Bates, the coach.

:04:14. > :04:28.But a lot more assured on that 100 metres.

:04:29. > :04:33.That is significantly better for Sophie Taylor. She just does not

:04:34. > :04:37.seem to like the 200 metres, so I wonder if it is a good idea for her

:04:38. > :04:43.to get over that. It is useful for the 100 metres to have a crack at

:04:44. > :04:46.the 200 now and again. Sophie Taylor winning the final heat of the

:04:47. > :04:53.women's 100 metres breaststroke. Good swim from her. Maybe the top

:04:54. > :05:04.six will make it through to the semifinals. Let's look. That is what

:05:05. > :05:06.happened on the 50 metres, and Sophie Taylor did not quite make it

:05:07. > :05:15.in the finals, but good from her. Corrie Scott has made it through as

:05:16. > :05:23.well, so good swimming from the home nations.

:05:24. > :05:33.Great representation from the home nations in the lead going into the

:05:34. > :05:41.semifinals. Where union pressed? Sophie Taylor has been on form

:05:42. > :05:44.throughout the elites. The 200 metres yesterday was a bit confusing

:05:45. > :05:51.for everyone, because we really thought she was looking good. I am

:05:52. > :06:00.glad she has come out today, blowing the cobwebs away and just said, this

:06:01. > :06:04.is my event and I am hearing, I am a force to be reckoned with. As a

:06:05. > :06:14.swimmer, you prefer one event over another event. This is coming from a

:06:15. > :06:20.sprinter! She likes the 100 metres, that is the event. It is good to see

:06:21. > :06:26.her bounce back quickly today. Let's here from Sophie Allen.

:06:27. > :06:36.A busy morning for you. AB de Villiers time since the trials. Yes,

:06:37. > :06:42.a weird year, to be honest. It all went wrong after Christmas. I had

:06:43. > :06:48.illness and injury, it kept going wrong, and I went to the trial is

:06:49. > :06:51.not feeling very confident. I got my spot on the team and I did what I

:06:52. > :06:56.had to do. I was disappointed with my performance. I had to have a

:06:57. > :07:01.couple of weeks out of the water having my tonsils out! That was not

:07:02. > :07:05.ideal. But since then, the most consistent block I have ever had of

:07:06. > :07:10.training. I have done everything I can to turn my year around, and

:07:11. > :07:14.hopefully I can show that tonight. It must be frustrating for you. You

:07:15. > :07:19.have a lovely season but you should be up there doing that as well. Is

:07:20. > :07:22.good to have everybody around me doing well, it fills me with

:07:23. > :07:29.confidence knowing that the programme definitely works. I have

:07:30. > :07:34.done everything I could. Let's hope it comes through tonight. And I hear

:07:35. > :07:38.you are the most amazing cook! Yes, I have my own little business on the

:07:39. > :07:45.side where I'd make occasion cakes and stuff. And you look so

:07:46. > :07:53.fantastic! Thank you. We never got any takes! That is why

:07:54. > :08:04.you are such a huge fan of Sophie Allen. You love Kate! I was telling

:08:05. > :08:10.Mark about this. It is something to do in the day, you can be quite

:08:11. > :08:22.creative with it. We are on TV. I will get you in a minute. You can't

:08:23. > :08:25.eat what you want when you have finished swimming. Look at this. He

:08:26. > :08:31.brought it to the table? This is your lunch. I got a pot of fruit

:08:32. > :08:42.because I like to look after my body these days, and that came in there.

:08:43. > :08:47.I used to get made fun of for eating lettuce. Because I did a sprinter, I

:08:48. > :09:00.did not do a lot of training... You are a sprinter? I didn't know! You

:09:01. > :09:06.are a well man. We are going to hear from Sophie Taylor now. You took

:09:07. > :09:11.into those. That was a lot better. You have got

:09:12. > :09:15.a smile on your face again. I had to pick myself after the 200 metres

:09:16. > :09:19.yesterday. That was the fastest heat I have ever done, so I cannot be

:09:20. > :09:25.disappointed. That is the point, you need to learn from these things. It

:09:26. > :09:29.is not as if you have four or five years of international experience

:09:30. > :09:33.behind you. This is my first major international competition, and as a

:09:34. > :09:40.senior as well, you have to be prepared for the highs and the lows.

:09:41. > :09:46.You looked very strong, and we look forward to smite. Thank you. She

:09:47. > :09:50.looks quite serious. Hannah Miley, she has got her

:09:51. > :09:56.metals, she can relax a bit and enjoy it. These not relaxing yet.

:09:57. > :10:02.Know, and for Sophie, she has had a mixed week so far. She will want to

:10:03. > :10:05.get a good performance in. It is not just about tonight, she has to wait

:10:06. > :10:17.for tomorrow night to get on that podium, so it is now

:10:18. > :10:20.for tomorrow night to get on that believe in you. It is the friendly

:10:21. > :10:22.games. When you are in the village, everyone generally speaks the same

:10:23. > :10:28.language, if you like. The Olympic everyone generally speaks the same

:10:29. > :10:31.Games is kind of, everybody's childhood dream to go to the

:10:32. > :10:34.Olympics, and it is a massive thing. The atmosphere is completely

:10:35. > :10:37.different. The talent pool you are racing is different.

:10:38. > :10:40.different. The talent pool you are about the English, the Aussies,

:10:41. > :10:49.everybody seems to Nvidia better, it seems a bit tighter. It always

:10:50. > :10:54.seemed that we were mates. When you step behind the block, you

:10:55. > :10:57.seemed that we were mates. When you composite node, warrior mode. What

:10:58. > :11:07.is the atmosphere like? Do you talk to each other? You notice a few of

:11:08. > :11:17.the guys, who trained together, you notice... Men and women are very

:11:18. > :11:22.different. The women are laughing at the men. It is hilarious. The girls

:11:23. > :11:29.are sitting... What nail varnish you wearing? What is your favourite

:11:30. > :11:36.bag? I think girls like the destruction. No place for sexism at

:11:37. > :11:39.this table! The girls love a bit of chatting to relax them. The men have

:11:40. > :11:48.more ego, they chatting to relax them. The men have

:11:49. > :11:53.But, joking aside, the fingernails have become a big

:11:54. > :11:57.But, joking aside, the fingernails girls. And why did the men slapped

:11:58. > :11:59.their arms? That is the equivalent of the sprinters taking their tops

:12:00. > :12:04.off and parading around their of the sprinters taking their tops

:12:05. > :12:11.on the track. Is to distract your competitors. Not everyone does

:12:12. > :12:17.on the track. Is to distract your put water in the mouth. I remember

:12:18. > :12:22.seeing Karen Pickering doing this once at the Commonwealth. She spat

:12:23. > :12:28.seeing Karen Pickering doing this some water into her opponent's lane.

:12:29. > :12:34.It is a bit of bravado. Whatever suits you. But I always found, I

:12:35. > :12:42.used to lie in front of people, do a press stretching, you are getting

:12:43. > :12:52.ready to race. I am very excited now. Erin Davies has come to join

:12:53. > :13:01.us. Smuggle yourself in. Brush mark out of the way. You are 13. New

:13:02. > :13:15.Scotland's youngest member. I was it this morning? Really good. Were you

:13:16. > :13:20.expecting to swim that quickly? What more have you got a new tonight for

:13:21. > :13:23.the final? I am going to try my best. I am going to try and get

:13:24. > :13:36.another personal best. I am just going to try. Was it fun doing it in

:13:37. > :13:41.front of 4000 people? Yes. Are your parents coming back for the final?

:13:42. > :13:47.Yes. How will they reacted you get on the podium? I don't No. Dad will

:13:48. > :13:51.probably cry. I have heard that your schoolmates do not know you are

:13:52. > :13:59.here. They didn't, but they do now. You on the telly! Talkers through

:14:00. > :14:03.how you got into swimming. You were only four years old when you

:14:04. > :14:08.started. Yes, I started, because my doctor told me it would be good for

:14:09. > :14:16.me. How did swimming help with the problem with your hip? Igloos and it

:14:17. > :14:26.up. Let's look at you in action earlier this morning.

:14:27. > :14:35.What are you thinking, because she is pretty close to you? I was just

:14:36. > :14:39.trying to get ahead of her really. We were talking about the strength

:14:40. > :14:44.of the fourth lane but as you see there you don't need to be in the

:14:45. > :14:49.middle to swim fast. Big shout out to your swimming club, will they be

:14:50. > :14:59.watching at home? I don't know, I know that the coaches watching.

:15:00. > :15:07.Thank you very much for talking to us. Good luck. Go and rest and

:15:08. > :15:17.recover and enjoy the village. If you get a medal will you come back

:15:18. > :15:24.and show us? Maybe. Don't get big time on our six commission

:15:25. > :15:28.I have shown Helen my medal and she was not impressed she wants to see a

:15:29. > :15:38.new one. Thank you for talking to us, we will

:15:39. > :15:48.let you get on with your preparation. For the record, those

:15:49. > :15:51.nails are fantastic. She is the team. If you are watching at home

:15:52. > :15:55.and thinking I want to do some swimming, I have got children with

:15:56. > :16:03.an interest, where is the best place? Any local club, that is where

:16:04. > :16:07.anyone starts. We were talking about Adam Peaty being part of a club,

:16:08. > :16:14.that is where the development starts. As you get older you can go

:16:15. > :16:20.to a performance centre like Bath University, you can move it on. A

:16:21. > :16:29.lot of the guys here are swimming out in America. But any local club,

:16:30. > :16:35.go down and speak to the coach. What we do as ex-professionals, we are

:16:36. > :16:43.trying to inspire the next generation, Becky has set up her own

:16:44. > :16:46.swimming school, go along and have lessons. Because it is one of these

:16:47. > :16:57.things, if you are a parent, swimming can save lives. She said

:16:58. > :17:00.that her doctor suggested she go to a local swimming pool, who would

:17:01. > :17:05.have thought that this is where she ends up, it is a great story, in the

:17:06. > :17:09.Commonwealth Games in her home nation, the youngest person

:17:10. > :17:13.representing the country and has a realistic chance of being on the

:17:14. > :17:32.podium. It is time for the women's 800 metre freestyle second heat.

:17:33. > :17:44.16 lengths of the pool, this is the longest event at these Commonwealth

:17:45. > :17:45.Games in the swimming pool. Would be interesting to see Rebecca Adlington

:17:46. > :18:08.do a 1500 metres, too far? At an interesting name in Lane 6,

:18:09. > :18:12.from Canada Tabitha Barman. 19 years old. Her father a double gold

:18:13. > :18:37.medallist in Los Angeles. The fastest eight women from all

:18:38. > :18:53.three heats will go through to the final. 16 lengths of the pool. It is

:18:54. > :19:05.a long way and a goal like the clappers from the start. Aisha

:19:06. > :19:28.Thornton from Scotland trains in Loughborough.

:19:29. > :19:40.Lauren Boyle going over first. Another traveller. Great swimmer,

:19:41. > :19:43.great career for New Zealand but has done some international travelling

:19:44. > :19:51.herself. She has been out of New Zealand for a good three months in

:19:52. > :19:52.the lead up to this. Has been over in France, was in Paris for three

:19:53. > :20:27.weeks. I cannot see, Clare Balding asked me

:20:28. > :20:35.an interesting question, asked why we do so much training, racehorses

:20:36. > :20:40.never go full out in training in the distance that the race on. I think I

:20:41. > :20:43.have got that right, so why do we do it so much in swimming? And the

:20:44. > :21:02.answer is that I don't actually know.

:21:03. > :21:10.well. I think Rebecca Adlington is listening, training styles, what do

:21:11. > :21:23.you think about going the 120,000 that people would be doing or doing

:21:24. > :21:28.more pace and speed? The most that I would do in one week was 80,000

:21:29. > :21:32.metres. For me it was more the quality than the quantity. There was

:21:33. > :21:35.a certain point I used to get you and I was just not recovering and I

:21:36. > :21:41.find it and I was just not recovering and I

:21:42. > :21:45.make everything I did absolutely quality and do my best. Some of

:21:46. > :21:51.these girls are going over 100,000 metres a week. I have raced Lauren

:21:52. > :21:53.many times who is swimming there and she has always been a tough

:21:54. > :21:58.competitor, she has always she has always been a tough

:21:59. > :22:04.fighter and someone that has been lovely to race against. She is

:22:05. > :22:09.always so friendly. She was in Arizona in March, she

:22:10. > :22:14.early because she was suffering, exhaustion, then she chose to go

:22:15. > :22:19.with the and work that hard, so it is a punishing schedule but do you

:22:20. > :22:24.think it is benefiting her? Yes, I think we saw that at the World

:22:25. > :22:28.Championships last year, are really coming through. You have got to do

:22:29. > :22:31.what works for you and I think a change of scenery and different

:22:32. > :22:36.people to train with, a different coach, it really does make a

:22:37. > :22:41.difference. I went out to Australia after the Commonwealth Games in

:22:42. > :22:45.Delhi and chained out there for six weeks, not because I don't

:22:46. > :23:01.Delhi and chained out there for six never quite understood

:23:02. > :23:12.Delhi and chained out there for six thing but you are a different breed

:23:13. > :23:17.Delhi and chained out there for six no, seven lengths to go, this may be

:23:18. > :23:39.the difficult part, after halfway, the difficult part, after halfway,

:23:40. > :23:41.pacing. The medal 400 trying to be consistent and repeat the same time

:23:42. > :23:45.over again and then pick it up consistent and repeat the same time

:23:46. > :23:50.the last 200 metres. Once you get over the halfway mark, these girls

:23:51. > :23:53.will be keeping count because you cannot always hear the bell or the

:23:54. > :23:55.whistle, you have to keep count and the pain does kick in,

:23:56. > :23:59.whistle, you have to keep count and sick feeling in your stomach that

:24:00. > :24:03.you are about to throw up but you have to push through it.

:24:04. > :24:20.you are about to throw up but you fascinating, thank you. Five lengths

:24:21. > :24:39.to go. Lauren Boyle, 26, a lot of experience and maturity.

:24:40. > :24:53.Interesting fact about Rockhampton, Rod labourer was from there. After

:24:54. > :25:15.the World Championships in Perth, we rented motor bikes and I fell off.

:25:16. > :25:24.That is the 650 metre turn. Three lengths to go. Lauren Boyle going

:25:25. > :25:27.well, but going with her the 16-year-old, Australian distance

:25:28. > :25:35.running, what a fantastic history they have. Particularly in

:25:36. > :25:42.freestyle. They have had some unbelievably wonderful distance

:25:43. > :25:51.freestylers. Not so much recently on the women's side, the men's side has

:25:52. > :25:55.but not so much on the women's side. Lauren Boyle, the World Championship

:25:56. > :26:02.bronze medallist in the 400 metres, 800 metres and the 1500 metres.

:26:03. > :26:09.16-year-old Alanna Bowles of Australia in second. About ten

:26:10. > :26:13.metres back is Brittany Maclean, she is a very good distance freestyle, I

:26:14. > :26:22.imagine she is going relatively comfortably. You would kind of hope

:26:23. > :26:30.so. She is the American collegiate champion. She has got a good

:26:31. > :26:35.pedigree. Lauren Boyle now just starting to assert herself. Really

:26:36. > :26:40.good swimming from Alanna Bowles. She is catching a little bit here, I

:26:41. > :26:47.am not sure they need to go quite as fast, he will certainly be through

:26:48. > :26:59.to the final. Neither of them really pushed it too much. They only need

:27:00. > :27:07.to do about 8.40. Lauren Boyle wins for New Zealand, she will be through

:27:08. > :27:13.to tomorrow night 's final. Scotland fourth, Aisha Thornton. Will be

:27:14. > :27:20.tight to see if she gets through but she has got a chance. I love the way

:27:21. > :27:26.that the race at the end, you say that they do not need to, but no

:27:27. > :27:38.swimmer likes to lose. I would not give up at that point. That is boil

:27:39. > :27:48.in the black cap. -- Lauren Boyle in the black cap. Little bit of a race

:27:49. > :28:00.at the end. The result of the first of the two CDT

:28:01. > :28:16.We are going to grab a quick word with Ross Murdoch. I know you have

:28:17. > :28:22.got to get back. Congratulations, how do you feel? I am over the moon

:28:23. > :28:26.with how I have been swimming, the support has been amazing, I am proud

:28:27. > :28:31.to be here and make my parents proud and do everything I can for my

:28:32. > :28:37.country. Your mum was getting quite emotional last night. Yes, I am glad

:28:38. > :28:43.they are getting recognition for the hard work they have put information.

:28:44. > :28:49.Yes, you would not be where you are without your parents. Yes, they

:28:50. > :28:57.raise you, put you into the sport and support you. My mum got me into

:28:58. > :29:03.swimming so I would be safe in the water, but it has got me all the way

:29:04. > :29:09.there. Everyone made a meal of your face and how surprised you looked.

:29:10. > :29:15.Where are you thinking more about the 100 metres as opposed to the 200

:29:16. > :29:26.metres? I just wanted to come and swim fast in all of my events. I was

:29:30. > :29:36.camp? You kicked things off. It must be buzzing. Yes, but everybody seems

:29:37. > :29:41.so relaxed. We have such a friendly atmosphere full is the everybody is

:29:42. > :29:44.joking and having a laugh, and the coaches do not feel like they are

:29:45. > :29:52.your coach, it feels like they are your friends. Are you able to enjoy

:29:53. > :29:57.it? There are expectations, especially now going forward. I have

:29:58. > :30:01.been enjoying it so much. This morning I came out in the 50

:30:02. > :30:07.metres, and there were people behind me shouting my name. I turned round

:30:08. > :30:11.and they looked at me, and I just gave a bit of a wave, and the whole

:30:12. > :30:16.stand toward. I loved it it was amazing. We knows is that you are

:30:17. > :30:21.working on your side as you come out! It is not intentional! You have

:30:22. > :30:29.to let it happen full is top was Michael Jamieson your role model? He

:30:30. > :30:32.was. He made me believe it was possible that Scottish people could

:30:33. > :30:38.come to an event like this and win major medals. He was a major

:30:39. > :30:42.inspiration for about the other night. Last time I saw you, you said

:30:43. > :30:47.there was a putting sterling that would let you have a free meal if

:30:48. > :30:55.you won. I think you have earned it! I will have to see when I get

:30:56. > :30:58.back to sterling. He is a nice man that works in there, and I want to

:30:59. > :31:03.say thanks to him. He has supported me a lot in the last couple of

:31:04. > :31:08.weeks. I think everyone in Scotland will buy you a meal. The emotion on

:31:09. > :31:14.the rostrum, was that because you thought you had earned a free meal?

:31:15. > :31:19.It was awesome! I just couldn't hold it in. There was nothing like it,

:31:20. > :31:23.getting the national anthem some to you by the crowd and your

:31:24. > :31:29.team-mates, and my coach, who has also worked so hard this year, he

:31:30. > :31:33.has been thrown in at the deep end. Is now the head coach, fluent in at

:31:34. > :31:44.the deep end. I want to say thank you to him as well. Are you going to

:31:45. > :31:50.the European Championships in billing? Yes. You are only 0.25 of

:31:51. > :31:55.the world record. That did not seem possible before this. It did not

:31:56. > :32:01.seem possible to me. I did not think that would be a realistic target

:32:02. > :32:03.ever. I have just got to keep focused and keep doing what I am

:34:31. > :34:35.then she may or may not make the but to me it seems like a pointless

:34:36. > :34:47.when. -- a but to me it seems like a pointless

:34:48. > :34:55.possibly, I think she will make the final. Possibly in seventh or eighth

:34:56. > :34:59.position. In theory, she has a chance of getting a medal, but there

:35:00. > :35:03.are some fast swimmers. Jess Atwood has gone under eight minutes and 20

:35:04. > :35:11.seconds. Brittany has gone under eight minutes and 20

:35:12. > :35:20.good indeed. I do not understand why she would be doing this, and

:35:21. > :35:27.good indeed. I do not understand why possibly put in jeopardy a medal

:35:28. > :35:30.good indeed. I do not understand why course. Going well in lane number

:35:31. > :35:35.seven is Camilla Hattersley of Scotland. She is just about level

:35:36. > :35:52.with Hannah Miley. Carlin is well out of the picture.

:35:53. > :35:57.We can't even see her. She is weighed and left. As the camera pans

:35:58. > :36:11.out again, she has got pretty much a 20-metre lead. The 700 metres mark,

:36:12. > :36:19.two lengths to go. Carlin, every length, she is taking 1m more out of

:36:20. > :36:27.the field. Seconds to turn is Jessica Ashwood of Australia. Third

:36:28. > :36:33.is Hannah Miley, in the white hat. It is very close for third, fourth

:36:34. > :36:42.and fifth places. It is going to be a fight on this last 100m. But way

:36:43. > :36:50.out in front, and a really impressive display. The finals are

:36:51. > :36:54.not tonight, so they have a full 24 hours, and if you are doing over

:36:55. > :37:01.100,000 metres a week, hours, and if you are doing over

:37:02. > :37:10.100,000 two 800m races is not going to tax you. She needs to prove to

:37:11. > :37:18.herself that she is capable of the gold medal. Here is one to watch.

:37:19. > :37:26.Carlin gets a massive roar from the crowd, with a new Commonwealth Games

:37:27. > :37:31.record am to win this heat. Jessica Ashwood is second, and third place,

:37:32. > :37:39.very good swim from Camilla Hattersley of Scotland. She just

:37:40. > :37:43.touches out Hannah Miley into fourth place. I think that oath of them

:37:44. > :37:53.will get through to the final, with Hannah Miley seventh fastest. That

:37:54. > :38:00.is not easy and she has got the 200m medley final tonight. It is good to

:38:01. > :38:06.see Carlin act on form. She has been struggling with illness, but she

:38:07. > :38:11.dominated the final heat. That is the message that you want to send to

:38:12. > :38:17.your rivals. She had time to take our hats off, they did TV and hold

:38:18. > :38:35.on and watch the rest finish. I imagine that Jessica Ashwood will be

:38:36. > :38:47.disappointed. The two Scottish women will both make the final.

:38:48. > :38:56.Great to see Carlin looking so good. I'm she will now go and do a

:38:57. > :38:57.long... Look at that! There has been wonderful home nations support

:38:58. > :39:31.across the field here. We can hear from Jazz Carlin right

:39:32. > :39:37.now. What an amazing swim. Watch my feet! I wanted to put in a good

:39:38. > :39:41.performance this morning. It has been difficult, because I have been

:39:42. > :39:45.waiting around for a couple of days to swim my main events. I have been

:39:46. > :39:49.training hard and I have put in all the effort this year, so I wanted to

:39:50. > :39:55.put in a strong swim and I know that I can recover ready for tomorrow.

:39:56. > :40:00.You have a rest day now before the final. What will you be doing?

:40:01. > :40:04.Making sure I recover, eating the right food, ready for tomorrow, and

:40:05. > :40:07.just relaxing. It is all about staying calm and relaxed ready for

:40:08. > :40:14.tomorrow. The crowd have been amazing. It is an amazing feeling.

:40:15. > :40:20.They are very partisan, but they are looking after the home nations,

:40:21. > :40:24.aren't they? Would not have expected this much. Missing out on London, I

:40:25. > :40:27.have not experienced a home crowd like this before. I cannot wait for

:40:28. > :40:33.tomorrow night. There is nobody deserves it more than you. Thank you

:40:34. > :40:37.very much. They are a large crowd getting

:40:38. > :40:41.whipped into a frenzy now, because Wales, England, Scotland and the

:40:42. > :40:56.Isle of Man are now in action in the relay.

:40:57. > :41:04.Leading for Wales, Calum Jarvis, the bronze-medallist in the individual

:41:05. > :41:16.200m freestyle. Team Wales lead with a bang.

:41:17. > :41:21.Fraser Holmes, we will see him in the next heat, they have put him off

:41:22. > :41:25.in the first leg as well. The gold-medallist will be swimming.

:41:26. > :41:51.Great to see Jarvis in here again. Is going for it, certainly. Scott

:41:52. > :42:01.over first, second it is Steve Kent for New Zealand. Then it is J

:42:02. > :42:07.Elliott. And then Calum Jarvis. Calum Jarvis does come back very

:42:08. > :42:12.quickly. No Scottish men in the individual 100m freestyle, but they

:42:13. > :42:20.had such a great tradition in this relay.

:42:21. > :42:29.Three Scottish men in the final of that freestyle. They are currently

:42:30. > :42:33.in first place. Calum Jarvis is right at the top there. The tiny set

:42:34. > :42:48.to get that silver medal, sorry, the bronze medal, 1.46.53. One .40 9.2.

:42:49. > :42:55.Wales are leading. You do not often hear that in the Commonwealth Games

:42:56. > :43:01.relays. Second, England, just trying to work out who is first...

:43:02. > :43:09.first, England second, I think Scotland third, New Zealand are in

:43:10. > :43:14.fourth place. These teams are all very much together. Goodness me. 0.3

:43:15. > :43:21.seconds splitting all four of them. That is an interesting one. Quite a

:43:22. > :43:34.tired swim from Callum Jarvis. place. They just need to qualify

:43:35. > :43:42.here, and if they finish in the top four and drop the Isle of Man, that

:43:43. > :43:51.will be a qualification for them. Great swimming here from Gareth

:43:52. > :43:53.Mills, the Scottish swimmer, 52.7 for his first 100m, kicking

:43:54. > :44:02.and moving away from the rest of the field. Good to see a bit of a battle

:44:03. > :44:09.and moving away from the rest of the here. Gareth Mills leading for

:44:10. > :44:17.Scotland, and at the moment it looks like it is team New Zealand in

:44:18. > :44:22.second place. They are starting to have a go at the Scots. They do not

:44:23. > :44:25.have to work too hard here, because there are ten teams

:44:26. > :44:28.have to work too hard here, because this league, five in the second

:44:29. > :44:34.heat, so they only have to drop two teams. They may well be swimming for

:44:35. > :44:40.places in the final. Very teams. They may well be swimming for

:44:41. > :44:51.takeover in lane in the six, can the Brodie representing Scotland. And it

:44:52. > :44:52.was him in the 200m butterfly that swam an absolute cracker. Qualified

:44:53. > :45:07.fastest for the final image 200m butterfly. Great

:45:08. > :45:08.fastest for the final image 200m New Zealand, England trailing

:45:09. > :45:23.somewhat. Cameron Brodie for Scotland at the

:45:24. > :45:35.bottom of the picture going very well indeed.

:45:36. > :45:48.There is a decent second heat coming up.

:45:49. > :45:50.There is a decent second heat coming Cameron Brodie, the fastest

:45:51. > :45:59.qualifier for the final of the tunes metres fly. -- 200 metres. He moved

:46:00. > :46:21.up to Cameron Brodie for Scotland, very

:46:22. > :46:45.good second leg. And save takeover from Craig

:46:46. > :46:54.Hamilton. -- are safe. You do not risk a flyer in the heats. I think

:46:55. > :46:57.the crowd are excited by the head to head with New Zealand right now,

:46:58. > :47:02.they would like to see a Scottish victory.

:47:03. > :47:05.they would like to see a Scottish only having tickets for this session

:47:06. > :47:09.so this is the one chance to cheer on a Scottish victory, they don't

:47:10. > :47:16.gear when it happens, they just want to see the Scottish team when. --

:47:17. > :47:28.they don't care -- the Scottish team win. 100 metres to go in this. New

:47:29. > :47:33.Zealand at the top in the black cap just starting to overtake Scotland,

:47:34. > :47:39.closer to us is Craig Hamilton. He is fighting hard. Do not need to go

:47:40. > :47:42.to quickly here in terms of possession because these teams are

:47:43. > :47:51.guaranteed to get into the final with ten teams in this competition.

:47:52. > :47:56.Look at this. Take off your headphones and listen to the crowd.

:47:57. > :48:05.This is going to lift Craig Hamilton, it does not matter that it

:48:06. > :48:10.is the heat, he wants to win. And he is going to, he is going to bring

:48:11. > :48:12.team Scotland home first, New Zealand second, it looks like Wales

:48:13. > :48:32.third and England fourth. Wales have beaten England, that is

:48:33. > :49:12.very interesting. The team from the Isle of Man just

:49:13. > :49:22.finishing just now. Goodness me. The Welsh team coming back very well. A

:49:23. > :49:34.fascinating result there. Wales before England, that is very

:49:35. > :49:37.interesting. I am presuming that five teams will not beat the English

:49:38. > :49:48.qualifying time in the second heat but it is not impossible.

:49:49. > :50:00.Perhaps a tactical swim from the English in fourth? They will get an

:50:01. > :50:03.outside lane and that is a very good position to be in. It is a good

:50:04. > :50:24.position and you hope it is tactical because they were a long way down.

:50:25. > :50:32.Isle of Man probably going to be one of the teams out from the first

:50:33. > :50:37.heat. Team England will hope that team Guernsey do not beat the time

:50:38. > :50:42.that they set to come in fourth because if they do it would be

:50:43. > :50:43.curtains for England. I would like to see Guernsey have a battle with

:50:44. > :51:14.Malaysia. Fraser Holmes for Australia. I

:51:15. > :51:26.wonder why they have stuck in the big guys in the heats, the big guns?

:51:27. > :51:31.Maybe they have wanted to, maybe the swimmers have said they want to give

:51:32. > :51:40.it a bash. It is not always just the coaches manipulating the situation.

:51:41. > :51:44.Normally the big guys would be rested for the final, so they will

:51:45. > :51:52.be watching on the television or perhaps having a little nap. Sitting

:51:53. > :51:59.at home watching us and wondering what we are talking about. There is

:52:00. > :52:03.jelly and tactics so far in the relays have been as you can but we

:52:04. > :52:12.will take off the takeover time from your time so do not do a fast

:52:13. > :52:17.takeover -- the Australian tactics. That takeover time there, almost

:52:18. > :52:21.half a second between the time that the guy coming in touches the wall

:52:22. > :52:35.to the time that the guy on the blocks dives in. Do not want to take

:52:36. > :52:44.it too far down. Easy swimming from the Australians. Followed by South

:52:45. > :52:45.Africa and Singapore. It looks like Malaysia and Guernsey are struggling

:52:46. > :52:56.to keep up pace. Lovely stroke from the SJ Lee, look

:52:57. > :53:07.at that, lovely, Lovely stroke from the SJ Lee, look

:53:08. > :53:14.long, powerful, fluid stroke -- from Australia. That is David McKeon. For

:53:15. > :53:19.350 metres he had his event in the bag that he paid for the early pace

:53:20. > :53:35.and the pacing of Ryan Cochrane was supreme. The 1500 metres to come

:53:36. > :53:41.later in the competition. It will be great to see Ryan Cochrane again in

:53:42. > :53:49.that. Sebastien Rousseau with the green hat of South Africa. That is

:53:50. > :53:55.David McKeon. Sebastien Rousseau on the right-hand side, team-mates with

:53:56. > :53:56.Dan Wallace and was in the final of the 400 metre individual medley and

:53:57. > :54:19.got problems. -- got bronze. The kind that very well, the

:54:20. > :54:24.momentum going off the The kind that very well, the

:54:25. > :54:33.looked a little tighter than a quarter of a second but that

:54:34. > :54:33.looked a little tighter than a fine, nice and safe. The latest

:54:34. > :54:41.takeover of all of them so far. fine, nice and safe. The latest

:54:42. > :54:53.the Olympics if you can go one tenth of a second maybe, ten one

:54:54. > :54:56.hundredths, that is good. A 10th of a second is about right.

:54:57. > :55:15.Australia leading in the shape of Ned McKendry. Dylan Bosch of South

:55:16. > :55:36.Africa the closest to us. The final swimmer for Guernsey,

:55:37. > :55:43.Oliver Nightingale at the moment, he will be handing over to Luke Belton.

:55:44. > :55:56.The final leg about to go in, nice save takeover for Australia. Mack

:55:57. > :55:58.Horton, great 400 metres freestyle swimmer but did not have a

:55:59. > :56:05.particularly good individual 400 free. At the age of only 18 I think

:56:06. > :56:07.he has got something left in his career and I am looking to see how

:56:08. > :56:23.I used to love watching the 1500. he gets on.

:56:24. > :56:49.I used to love watching the 1500. Mack Horton, would be good to see

:56:50. > :56:56.been leading from the go and look comfortable in deed. South Africa

:56:57. > :57:02.about eight metres behind, ten comfortable in deed. South Africa

:57:03. > :57:15.Jack between third and fourth. comfortable in deed. South Africa

:57:16. > :57:18.big gap. Team Guernsey being anchored by Luke Belton. The

:57:19. > :57:24.Australians looking very good, can you see them getting gold?

:57:25. > :57:34.Australians looking very good, can they have made a statement that they

:57:35. > :57:45.want to win all six relays. Mack Horton bringing Australia home.

:57:46. > :57:46.want to win all six relays. Mack Australia will go in a second

:57:47. > :58:12.fastest qualifiers. A lot of swimmers getting out, but

:58:13. > :58:21.just coming in for team Guernsey, Luke Belton. Of the ten teams they

:58:22. > :58:26.will be one of them dropped. Australia totally dominant. It looks

:58:27. > :58:35.like England will make it through to the finals. Little bit unsure for a

:58:36. > :58:44.short while but they have made it. This trail you will go in fastest --

:58:45. > :59:43.Australia will go in fastest. We are still working on the Ross

:59:44. > :59:47.Murdoch manoeuvre here. Hopefully we will see him on the podium and he

:59:48. > :59:53.can invent something himself. Thank you for your company. That is it

:59:54. > :00:24.from the morning session, tying for the news. --

:04:02. > :04:21.round, she should emerge as the winner.

:04:22. > :05:15.She puts one down. She confidently takes her first pair.

:05:16. > :05:21.There is no semifinal and middle matches in the women's double trap,

:05:22. > :05:28.a protocol of the Games is that if it's not an Olympic event, then

:05:29. > :05:30.there is no final series. The middle is determined on the qualifying

:05:31. > :05:52.round alone. Singh currently in the Silver Medal

:05:53. > :06:12.position. At the moment it's England, India,

:06:13. > :06:21.England. This is the leader. This is Charlotte Kerwood.

:06:22. > :06:33.She just down a bird. Volatility already creeping in

:06:34. > :06:53.15 pairs of targets for a total of 30 in the last round.

:06:54. > :07:04.Back to Kerwood now. She drops another single target. The

:07:05. > :07:06.beginning to build now. She has a substantial lead going

:07:07. > :07:23.into this, but she has dropped two. Back to Singh of India. She too has

:07:24. > :07:34.dropped a target in the round. She's Back to Singh of India. She too has

:07:35. > :07:55.got a considerable lead to make up on Kerwood.

:07:56. > :08:05.It's the filler now. So the pressure cooker of this environment taking

:08:06. > :08:18.its toll. The mental discipline required to hold it together.

:08:19. > :08:20.its toll. The mental discipline of experience required. Singh

:08:21. > :08:27.its toll. The mental discipline drops another target. It's wide-open

:08:28. > :08:28.for the Gold Medal. Can

:08:29. > :08:32.for the Gold Medal. She does. Back on track with another

:08:33. > :08:38.double. Cynthia Meyer a veteran Olympic and

:08:39. > :08:58.Commonwealth Games competition. Back to Singh. Sitting in second on

:08:59. > :09:07.the rankings. She's called for a pair and no target emerges. So

:09:08. > :09:12.resetting. Perhaps the call wasn't loud enough to release the

:09:13. > :09:15.mechanism. The microphone has to register a call. She takes the

:09:16. > :09:31.double. Shale from Australia now.

:09:32. > :09:37.She drops another double. Well out of contention. Kerwood missed

:09:38. > :09:50.another target. So the gap between Kerwood and Singh is closing.

:09:51. > :09:58.The filler now on station one. Then back to Singh.

:09:59. > :10:11.She drops another single target. So very volatile.

:10:12. > :10:17.Meyer is moving up the rankings. Kerwood also drops another target.

:10:18. > :10:25.Now Cynthia Meyer from Canada. She drops a target. It's moving all

:10:26. > :10:45.over the place at the moment. The computer based on averages has

:10:46. > :10:51.Cynthia mare into bronze position. Singh drops a double. So Singh

:10:52. > :10:56.dropping a double will change things again potentially.

:10:57. > :11:11.Now to Kerwood. She drops another single target.

:11:12. > :11:17.Meyer now into the medal contention. Her experience might be valuable

:11:18. > :11:19.here. She takes another double. Waiting for the filler to shoot on

:11:20. > :11:36.station three. Singh finishing on five. The other

:11:37. > :11:37.squad watching on. They know exactly what's happening on that score

:11:38. > :11:47.board. Kerwood is still holding a lead on

:11:48. > :11:53.averages, but after dropping a double. That lead is going to be

:11:54. > :11:59.dramatically reduced. Now Meyer in medal contention.

:12:00. > :12:24.Now to Singh. On average into third position. Shale from Australia.

:12:25. > :12:33.Kerwood now. Drops another targets. If this

:12:34. > :12:40.average continues, it's going to be a very close battle indeed.

:12:41. > :12:50.Meyer from Canada drops a single target. It really is anyone's race.

:12:51. > :12:58.Singh now. Third on average. Takes the double.

:12:59. > :13:04.It's a matter of who can get the confidence together from here on in

:13:05. > :13:10.for the last few pairs of this competition.

:13:11. > :13:20.Kerwood back on track with a double. Meyer now of Canada.

:13:21. > :13:48.She drops a target. That hasn't affected the average.

:13:49. > :13:59.Now to Kerwood. She shoots the double. If she can hold that

:14:00. > :14:08.composure, she will hold on to take the gold.

:14:09. > :14:24.She drops the full double. Again, a major change to the standings likely

:14:25. > :14:40.as a result this afternoon double. Kerwood for her second last target.

:14:41. > :15:08.She drops a single. Still holding onto the lead.

:15:09. > :15:18.competition. So Shreyasi Singh, finishing with a 23 from 30. Gaye

:15:19. > :15:20.Shale, finishing with a 19 and Charlotte Kerwood drops another, to

:15:21. > :15:37.finish with a 19. Cynthia Meyer of Canada, we have to

:15:38. > :15:44.wait for the standings, the Philadelphia is in the shoot,

:15:45. > :15:55.Charlotte Kerwood unofficially has won the gold medal. It is

:15:56. > :15:59.unofficial. Ladies and gentlemen, we have our gold-medallist, give a warm

:16:00. > :16:07.congratulations to from England, Charlotte Kerwood! It's official,

:16:08. > :16:13.she is the gold-medallist. Charlotte Kerwood of England takes the gold

:16:14. > :16:15.medal. A seesaw battle in the final stages. She did it in Melbourne in

:16:16. > :16:30.2006 and has done it here. Shreyasi Singh, the silver medal

:16:31. > :16:39.from India. They moved to congratulate each other.

:16:40. > :17:01.For the bronze medal, they will have a shoot off.

:17:02. > :17:07.So England and Canada to shoot offer for the bronze medal. Rachel Parish

:17:08. > :17:15.of England and Cynthia Meyer of Canada to shoot off.

:17:16. > :17:21.We are about to see the shoot off to determine the bronze medal.

:17:22. > :17:25.Charlotte Kerwood has already claimed the gold and Shreyasi Singh

:17:26. > :17:38.the silver. This will determine who takes the

:17:39. > :17:43.bronze medal. The shoot off to begin good on station one with a

:17:44. > :18:08.consistent pair of targets for each shooter until the tie is broken.

:18:09. > :18:20.Standing by while they are announced. The crowd, wishing them

:18:21. > :18:27.well. This is a mess and out situation.

:18:28. > :18:34.Stepping onto Station one, for the bronze medal. Whoever is the leader

:18:35. > :18:46.at the end will win the medal. Now the pressure is on Rachel Parish

:18:47. > :18:57.to repeat that. Rachel Parish now has to get these

:18:58. > :19:25.two targets, to stay in the race for She also takes the double. So we're

:19:26. > :19:28.moving onto station to now, to continue the shoot off. Pressure is

:19:29. > :19:54.back on Cynthia Meyer. And she drops the fall pair, so now

:19:55. > :20:03.it should be Rachel Parish to take the bronze medal -- drops the fall

:20:04. > :20:06.pair. She only has to hit one target, that's all she needs. What

:20:07. > :20:18.will the pressure to? And there it is. Rachel Parish of

:20:19. > :20:20.England takes the bronze medal in the women's double trap, defeating

:20:21. > :20:29.Cynthia Meyer of Canada. She will join her team-mate

:20:30. > :20:58.Charlotte Kerwood on the podium. Charlotte Kerwood, her fourth

:20:59. > :21:04.Commonwealth gold medal. She won her first full she was just 15 years

:21:05. > :21:09.old. Let's turn our attention to Kelvingrove and the balls. Earlier,

:21:10. > :21:16.the semifinal took place between England and Scotland. Here is what

:21:17. > :21:52.happened in the game. Paul Mitchell and John Price are commentators.

:21:53. > :21:57.Tremendous credit to the English pair, they have played so well, but

:21:58. > :22:02.the crowd have been a bit muted. I wouldn't say flat, but we haven't

:22:03. > :22:07.had the noise and support we had the other night. I think they are aware

:22:08. > :22:16.this is a major challenge to the gold medal hopes of Scotland.

:22:17. > :23:00.Scotland, without any success four years ago in Delhi.

:23:01. > :23:11.He has been asked to play a little wider. It is going to turn on its

:23:12. > :23:49.own and that makes the Scottish bowl locked in slightly.

:23:50. > :24:00.It's been a very pacey game, the players haven't wasted much time

:24:01. > :24:10.passed up --. I have gone out there at a good pace.

:24:11. > :24:20.It has been a good example of an accident pairs game. -- excellent.

:24:21. > :25:15.Well, the backhand does look attractive. Trying to get around the

:25:16. > :25:16.front two is a bit difficult. They have played this hand most of the

:25:17. > :25:51.day. Sam would like to school. -- score.

:25:52. > :25:52.The noise in the background is because of the singles semifinal in

:25:53. > :26:12.the ladies. Plenty of action going on on all

:26:13. > :26:21.four greens here. This is our featured match. And what a match it

:26:22. > :26:26.is. Provisions to this of both teams are here, watching on. --

:26:27. > :26:37.representatives. I had wondered if Scotland would

:26:38. > :26:43.just try on the backhand, just to come in. They are looking at the two

:26:44. > :26:55.ballpoint on an ankle against the England bowl. -- on an angle. The

:26:56. > :27:01.England bowl is at 12 o'clock to the jack, that's the one trying to get

:27:02. > :27:11.out. Get it right onto the other England bowl. That would be an

:27:12. > :27:12.adventurous shop. It would be. You also have to weigh up what would

:27:13. > :27:28.happen if you get it wrong. The plant, he's looking at the angle

:27:29. > :27:33.of the plant. If he gets it, where is it going?

:27:34. > :27:46.Decisions, decisions. If things were to stay as they are, Scotland would

:27:47. > :27:50.be two down with two to play. They have an ability for coming back but

:27:51. > :27:56.they don't want to make life harder. They do talk to each other,

:27:57. > :28:05.honest! Paul will be saying to Alex, if you

:28:06. > :28:10.really fancy it, you have got to play but there is an element of

:28:11. > :28:16.risk. If you don't get the main target, anything can happen there.

:28:17. > :28:20.What they are worried about is not so much when he hits the plant, it's

:28:21. > :28:31.the bowl, where it's going after that.

:28:32. > :28:40.Sometimes all you can do is stand back and wait, and watch. There is

:28:41. > :28:44.the element of back and wait, and watch. There is

:28:45. > :28:52.give the edge of it, gets its solid, could give a shot away.

:28:53. > :29:02.David Gourlay, the Scotland coach. Very adventurous in doors, as you

:29:03. > :29:12.know, when he is playing on the portable rink. Yes, very creative in

:29:13. > :29:13.his shot selection. They are too down on the board and they can't

:29:14. > :29:21.afford to give a shot away. He has had a long think about this,

:29:22. > :29:46.still in two minds. Not sure what that was about. There

:29:47. > :29:54.was something that distracted Alex Marshall, a little shake of the

:29:55. > :29:55.head. You can be easily distracted in doors when it's silent, but there

:29:56. > :30:23.is a lot of noise going He has played well.

:30:24. > :30:28.He played it off the back and thought he was safe. He has the edge

:30:29. > :30:37.of the bowl away. This was a really brave shot to play at this stage.

:30:38. > :30:56.There's a gaggle of bowls around there. England have called

:30:57. > :31:06.The determination of the Scot. Scotland fancy four. What a turn

:31:07. > :31:14.around. If it is, it's the shot of the match so far, given the

:31:15. > :31:17.circumstances. That will be a bitter blow to the English duo.

:31:18. > :31:46.That's what he's capable of. They're taking their time with the

:31:47. > :32:35.measurements. They thought it is four, it is four.

:32:36. > :32:46.For the first time, since end number three, Scotland have the lead.

:32:47. > :32:49.If you get the coach on their feet, you know you've done something

:32:50. > :33:02.right. That was a moment of magic. It's got

:33:03. > :33:07.the crowd going as well. Andrew and Sam, they've done little

:33:08. > :33:10.wrong in this match. There wasn't much Sam could have done about that.

:33:11. > :33:16.He thought he positioned things perfectly. He did nothing wrong

:33:17. > :33:24.really, just a brilliant delivery by Alex Marshal. Foster the People

:33:25. > :33:31.backed him up. -- Foster backed him up. You wouldn't pick a winner,

:33:32. > :33:34.that's for sure. It's great, isn't it! It's fantastic. Every bowl now

:33:35. > :33:48.has a meaning. This is what bowls is all about.

:33:49. > :34:02.They're playing fantastic bowls. You hear Alex Marshal saying yes,

:34:03. > :34:57.got to be through. That's well played as well.

:34:58. > :34:59.Marvellous ball by Andrew Napper as well. It's below for below in this

:35:00. > :35:14.game. I think he'll be into this.

:35:15. > :35:36.Definitely. He'll reach this. That makes a difference. Wanted to

:35:37. > :35:39.be the first one and then gave them two bowls to play with. He'll need

:35:40. > :36:12.to hit it with his next one. It's a deep ball to cover the T.

:36:13. > :36:41.That's pretty good. More than pretty good! It's perfect.

:36:42. > :36:56.I thought he would have gone again. The position would be against

:36:57. > :37:08.Scotland now for the heavy ball. If he's playing that sort of weight,

:37:09. > :37:19.Sam would look for a position maybe two foot past the Jack.

:37:20. > :37:25.England lie two. They would take the lead into the final end. Scotland

:37:26. > :37:29.would have the advantage of the final ball bowl of the match. --

:37:30. > :38:22.final bowl of the match. He has to gamble. Jack could go back

:38:23. > :38:24.up the green. He's got to reduce the count in some

:38:25. > :39:09.way. He can afford to lose one. He gets one of them away. That's not

:39:10. > :39:10.bad. England still hold two. Not quite what they wanted,

:39:11. > :39:39.Scotland. He's on a very good line. Just

:39:40. > :39:59.overplay today slightly. -- overplayed it slightly. Two shots

:40:00. > :40:00.to England. They took that from three down to

:40:01. > :40:11.two. It's going to the wire. We thought

:40:12. > :40:20.it might. It's been a brilliant It's going to the wire. We thought

:40:21. > :40:25.game. England have the advantage of setting the mat. Scotland

:40:26. > :40:27.game. England have the advantage of you take? At this stage, I would

:40:28. > :40:33.take last bowl. You've played a few, don't worry.

:40:34. > :41:03.It's a lot easier sitting here. What a morning of bowls we've had

:41:04. > :41:18.here. Zblnkts both sides would be

:41:19. > :41:39.desperate for a back toucher. Good ball out from Andrew Knapper.

:41:40. > :42:35.He's had a terrific game. Team England and team Scotland

:42:36. > :42:54.watching on. It's all about weight from there.

:42:55. > :43:00.It's just hanging off. Didn't quite reach.

:43:01. > :43:03.It's going to be down to Alex Marshal.

:43:04. > :43:28.-- it's obviously difficult. A real chance here for England. There will

:43:29. > :43:53.be plenty of discussions as the final six balls are delivered.

:43:54. > :43:57.Sam Tolchard. What a scalp it would be for England if they could take

:43:58. > :44:04.out Scotland on Scottish soil. A real bit of wind coming up there,

:44:05. > :44:23.a gust of wind. It's gusting now. If he could get an angle off the

:44:24. > :44:35.short bowls that would be ideal. I don't know if that's the

:44:36. > :45:39.percentage there. Sam asking Alex begin and have a

:45:40. > :45:45.look. Good sports -- sportsmanship. It fitting that they are given a bit

:45:46. > :45:47.more time. Such a difference, they will either be playing for gold or

:45:48. > :45:56.playing for bronze. Really difficult for some, he would

:45:57. > :46:05.like to try and kill it off totally but he doesn't want to widen the

:46:06. > :46:22.target. He has set himself in his mind now,

:46:23. > :46:23.what he wants to play. They seem to have the better position, Scotland

:46:24. > :46:30.have two bowls left. He's going for a deep bowl, covering

:46:31. > :46:45.the back position. Saying to Alex, if you want to draw

:46:46. > :46:52.the shop, you carry on. It's not going to be easy, the wind is

:46:53. > :46:55.picking up as well. Nothing has changed but he may not have liked

:46:56. > :47:09.the backhand. Will he pick it up on the forehand?

:47:10. > :47:28.A higher line with this, will he get the drop? He is very close! He has

:47:29. > :47:36.drawn it! What a bowl by Alex Marshall! The crowd on their feet.

:47:37. > :47:44.It was needed and he delivered, boy, did he deliver. It is a tricky

:47:45. > :47:51.aside, and he did draw it. What a bowl. The challenge was laid down to

:47:52. > :48:00.him by Sam Tolchard, draw if you can, and draw he did. And the

:48:01. > :48:14.weather worsens. We may have another end. Can Sam Tolchard reply?

:48:15. > :48:23.Will he get the angle? He has given us a great try, what a try!

:48:24. > :48:34.Fantastic effort. It's tremendous, isn't it. ". Alex, will you try and

:48:35. > :48:40.take another one? : For the win. I think you have got to. It really is

:48:41. > :48:44.nasty now, the weather, the wind has picked up, heavy rain. What a finish

:48:45. > :48:51.to this semifinal. It has got everything. I can't think of

:48:52. > :48:56.anything this match has lacked, it has had everything you would want,

:48:57. > :49:04.four players playing well, shots changing hand. It's a memorable

:49:05. > :49:05.match, no matter who wins. If he draws this, they will give him the

:49:06. > :49:23.freedom of Glasgow. Alex Marshall, can you win it with

:49:24. > :49:25.this bowl? He has one more indoor singles titles than any other

:49:26. > :49:32.player, he has won the Commonwealth Games pairs twice. Once with Paul

:49:33. > :49:41.Foster. Once with George Sneddon. And now he's ready. Sets himself on

:49:42. > :49:47.the mat, gets a grip, the rain is coming down. What a moment.

:49:48. > :49:56.He's an online with this comedy very close! He is on a line! He is

:49:57. > :50:07.trawling this! What a bowl! Absolute genius! What a bowl, the crowd are

:50:08. > :50:10.on their feet, brilliant. Delight for Scotland, they will play in the

:50:11. > :50:19.Commonwealth Games men's pairs final. The champions from 2006 have

:50:20. > :50:22.a chance to do it all again at the expense of Andrew Knapper and Sam

:50:23. > :50:29.Tolchard of England, who were terrific, but Scotland were better.

:50:30. > :50:34.There are few bowlers in the world who could have played those last

:50:35. > :50:38.two, Alex Marshall is the most successful bowler in the world

:50:39. > :50:41.indoors, the only other person who is close to him is his compatriot

:50:42. > :50:47.Paul Foster. Great performance from them, they are through to the final.

:50:48. > :50:52.Let's catch up with the rugby sevens, taking place half a mile

:50:53. > :50:56.behind us, and it's bad news for the home nations that were involved in

:50:57. > :51:00.the quarterfinals. Wales had it in their hands to win this match, and

:51:01. > :51:08.unbelievably right at the end, gave the ball away, Australia won the

:51:09. > :51:13.game. Next up, England were involved against Samoa and again

:51:14. > :51:17.disappointment for England. Samoa, such

:51:18. > :51:20.disappointment for England. Samoa, England thought they had it in

:51:21. > :51:30.control but Samoa took their chances, and England didn't.

:51:31. > :51:31.Scotland, there were high hopes for Scotland of course they

:51:32. > :51:38.Scotland, there were high hopes for against a very good side indeed,

:51:39. > :51:42.South Africa. They totally took Scotland apart. Scotland did well at

:51:43. > :51:46.times but missed tackles and missed opportunities.

:51:47. > :51:53.times but missed tackles and missed every gold medal since rugby

:51:54. > :51:55.times but missed tackles and missed was introduced to the Commonwealth

:51:56. > :51:58.Games, and they are still in it, they were playing Kenya, who did

:51:59. > :52:14.give them a little run for their money at times, but New Zealand were

:52:15. > :52:20.so dominant. They won that, 19-7. Isn't that splendid. We are going to

:52:21. > :52:25.head to hockey. We were on air at nine a.m., you would have seen

:52:26. > :52:30.Australia hammering Scotland 9-0, but earlier England also played,

:52:31. > :52:55.taking on Malaysia. Would they fare any better?

:52:56. > :53:05.That his trademark Sophie Gray, fantastic save. She did play

:53:06. > :53:16.fantastically well against Australia in the opening game.

:53:17. > :53:37.It is a penalty corner to England. White plays the ball onto her foot.

:53:38. > :53:52.The injection comes from the England number eight. It finds its way in! A

:53:53. > :53:58.goal for England, they lead 1-0. They were probably going for

:53:59. > :54:05.variation. Delivered not at 100% speed. The last 45 seconds of the

:54:06. > :54:14.half, can England add to their tally?

:54:15. > :54:17.England might just have one more goal in the mean this first period

:54:18. > :54:27.of play. They get the ball up in the air,

:54:28. > :54:28.really difficult for defenders if they don't cleanly take the ball,

:54:29. > :54:42.they will take a stick. Everybody is up because they will

:54:43. > :54:54.wind the clock down. Gilbert will inject for England.

:54:55. > :55:05.And England will go into half-time with a 2-0 lead, it may have been a

:55:06. > :55:14.deflection off another runner, but she will claim that. Something she

:55:15. > :55:18.has worked on. Definitely get a little deflection off the number one

:55:19. > :55:26.runner but in all honesty, it's exactly what England deserve.

:55:27. > :55:29.Malaysia, with numbers coming forward, they have had rare attacks

:55:30. > :55:43.on the England goal. she was fortunate the umpires didn't

:55:44. > :56:12.see that. She is rewarded with a penalty

:56:13. > :56:18.corner. Brilliant skills, good interchange, she couldn't quite find

:56:19. > :56:25.the space to get the shot away, lets the ball over one stick, draws the

:56:26. > :56:29.stick tackle. It was a good save from the keeper but not that time,

:56:30. > :56:39.and Sophie Gray makes sure, 3-0 to England.

:56:40. > :56:51.Well played by Sophie Gray. The ball is flicked down the middle of the

:56:52. > :56:59.goal and she makes a sweet connection. We have a Malaysia

:57:00. > :57:04.player down. She was punched in the chest, think she made a meal of

:57:05. > :57:06.that. There is also a 20 kilo weight difference, so probably far point

:57:07. > :57:16.she ran into a brick wall. The stick in front of the running

:57:17. > :57:45.attacker. Danson scores for England, they lead

:57:46. > :57:48.4-0. She has finally beaten Ayuni in goal, it's a fantastic penalty

:57:49. > :57:50.stroke, loan, just off the ground down the sideboard. Difficult for a

:57:51. > :58:05.keeper to get to that. She's claiming she was obstructed,

:58:06. > :58:11.she gets the penalty corner. Simple decision, I think. England scored to

:58:12. > :58:30.make it 5-0. Not something you see very often in

:58:31. > :58:37.hockey these days, a direct shot off the top of the circle, they will be

:58:38. > :58:46.disappointed to have been not made. And there it ends. A high note for

:58:47. > :58:51.Holly Webber. She scored within 20 seconds of the final hooter.

:58:52. > :58:58.Very competent performance from England there. Congratulations from

:58:59. > :59:07.them. This is the handing over of the bat on. The sun is shining, as

:59:08. > :59:12.soon as you were leaving the heavens opened and I was in here all day. As

:59:13. > :59:21.soon as I handed over to Dan Walker, the sun came back out, but

:59:22. > :59:25.I'm not too upset about it. Have you been impressed by anything

:59:26. > :59:29.particularly? You are trying to stay across everything, there has been a

:59:30. > :59:35.lot of talk in the office about the rugby sevens, there are a lot of

:59:36. > :59:38.disappointed people, it's just incredible, I went to Ibrox last

:59:39. > :59:46.night and that was the nice thing, the atmosphere was fabulous. That is

:59:47. > :59:49.not the home of Scottish rugby and there were more people there than

:59:50. > :59:55.you would sometimes get at a Scottish autumn Test match but

:59:56. > :00:03.people really got behind it. Enjoy the afternoon, hail and rain are

:00:04. > :00:32.perhaps it will shine. Stay with us here. Next up, shooting action.

:00:33. > :00:36.Kelvin drove. In the women's fours they were hoping to retain their

:00:37. > :00:39.Commonwealth Gold Medal. That won't happen. The best they can get is a

:00:40. > :00:55.bronze. Let's see how they're getting on against New Zealand.

:00:56. > :01:04.We need to get a good close up to see what colour that one is. Blue

:01:05. > :01:12.disk I think. That's not good from New Zealand point of view.

:01:13. > :01:43.Right in front. Oh, that's a great bowl. The channel was there, but

:01:44. > :02:07.it's a great bowl to find it, perfect weight.

:02:08. > :02:18.Now where is the Jack going? Well, there's a back bowl there. The

:02:19. > :02:34.question is whose is it? That's a kiwi bowl back there. A

:02:35. > :02:53.good drive and a good result. Can't argue with the quality of the drive.

:02:54. > :02:59.The problem a way through the bowls to get to

:03:00. > :03:12.that. She's looking for all sorts of bowls

:03:13. > :03:15.to hit, anything to increase her percentages. Everything looks like a

:03:16. > :03:20.single-bowl target to me.
