BBC Three: Day 9: 09:00-14:00 Commonwealth Games

Hello and a very warm welcome to day nine of Glasgow 2014. Looking

forward to the weekend, got that Friday feeling? Look, there is

Eilidh Child. She certainly has got the Friday thing. She got a silver

medal last night and she and lots of others have reason to feel that way.

POP MUSIC ye has pulled it out of the bag! Gold in class! Claudia

Fragapane, the golden girl. Superb riding to finish. Rebecca Downie is

Commonwealth champion. Varies your Golden Boot, Scotland's Daniel

Keatings. And an excellent bronze. Breathtaking gymnastics, every

single move was never in doubt. And Jazmin Sawyers, wow. Three English

girls in the hunt, and bronze. England have been absolutely

fantastic in this. Eilidh Child takes the silver. The David Weir is

coming home to a handsome victory. Already, some live action happening

on the luscious lawns of Kelvingrove. The women's pairs gold

medal matches under way between England and South Africa. You can

catch that shortly on BBC1. So that is coming up. Quite a nice day in

Glasgow. Lots of reasons to keep it right here on BBC Three. We will be

getting live action up and running at Kelvingrove where

getting live action up and running medal when their women's pairs take

on Northern Ireland for bronze. On the netball court, Wales are

on Northern Ireland for bronze. On on Northern Ireland for seventh and

eighth place. And plenty more bowls action as well, as England take on

Scotland in the men's four decider. Well, over at the Hydro yesterday,

the gymnastics, the home nations did incredibly well. Today, they are

hoping to pick up more heavy metal band they even managed yesterday. --

van they even managed. There you go. That is so solid.

Another golfer Max Whitlock. It is England's Claudia Fragapane. She

could get gold. Straight front somersault with a half turn. She has

got gold. This is all about Claudia Fragapane. Daniel Keatings, in with

a chance of a medal. Varies your golden boy, Scotland's Daniel

Keatings! Max Whitlock with silver and Louis Smith with bronze.

England's Beckie Downie. This is the impressive bit. She needs to speed

up, into the fold twist. Rebecca Downie is Commonwealth champion.

There you go, Daniel Purvis. Very nice. He takes the bronze medal. It

was a truly wonderful day in the Hydro for the gymnasts of England

and Scotland. I'm delighted to say that Craig Heap has joined us. You

were there the whole day. I got in the entity Daniel Purvis getting his

silver medal. What a day, just brilliant. It was such an emotional

day. Yet again, packed out in the Hydro. When gymnastics comes around,

I think these venues could be twice the size and still field because of

how passionate people are about gymnastics in this country. It was

fantastic. Max Whitlock and Claudia Fragapane did so well,

extraordinary, three gold medals for them. Take us through the highlight

of the day. You said before we came on air, beside the gymnastics coming

on EU had a lovely story about a little girl and a camera on the big

screen. There is a big screen and a scoreboard in the centre. This

little girl came up to the edge during the warm up, and she was

peering over the top. She looked up and saw herself on the big screen.

She did a double-take to see if it was her. Then she just went... And

then wandered off crying. It was so funny. She did not think it was that

funny but I was looking at her, thinking it was brilliant.

Absolutely. Let's talk about Max Whitlock in particular. Absolutely

sensational, the effort he has put in and the success he has had so

far, particularly on the floor. It is really difficult to put into

context how great he is. This was his 13th routine of the

championships so far. He looked like he had just come out. It was a

brilliant performance. He is so consistent on this apparatus.

European champion. You can see him getting his Commonwealth title to

add to that as well. He is a really big prospect for the future. It is

incredible, you say that either prospect for the future but he is

picking up lots of heavy-metal already. And he has got to medals

from London. I'm talking about the future, but maybe it is the past,

present and future. The World Championships are coming up in

October and it is a big build-up to Rio. Max and his coach have been

working towards Rio. He is a great gymnast. The Japanese, good humour,

seems to be a couple of marks ahead of the rest of the world, and it

looks like Max and Sam at all the others are looking forward to that,

looking forward to catching him. He was so impressive. Claudia Fragapane

in the vault, when you say impressive, my goodness, she was

impressive. A pocket rocket, that is her nickname. She has got bags of

energy and spring. You can watch her on the vault. For such a little

girl, she has got so much power. She is so dynamic. She is really suited

to gymnastics, especially on the floor, the vault and the balance

beam, where she excels. It is the acrobatic pieces of apparatus.

Unbelievable, the way that she seems to attack in particular the vault.

You say she is a pocket rocket but she is aggressive in the way she

approaches everything and pulls it off with grace as well. She is,

technically superb as well. We were looking at her second pulled because

if she is going to compete on the world stage, you need two really

good thoughts. Her second one is quite simple. -- really good

thoughts. I think there is another twist she can add, to pressure into

world and hopefully a big medals. Talking about English success,

clearly fantastic but on the horse as well, a very popular medal for a

Scottish fellow, obviously a member of Team GB as well but a very

popular medal, not only amongst the British team but for the English

team as well. I would probably say the pommel horse final was the final

of the games. It was Max Whitlock on the European champion, against his

fellow team-mate, Daniel Keatings, and then obviously, this is Louis

Smith, coming out of retirement, well, you never look -- he never

officially retired but making his comeback. Max had a bit of a warble,

and they struggle coming back down and regaining composure but this

routine from start to finish from Dan Keating is, there you go, that

is a very difficult skill, straight into another difficult skill. It was

absolutely packed. He was the only person to go into the 16 Broad on

that apparatus. As soon as he landed, you saw the rest of his

team-mates, England, the endless pages, jumping up and down. -- into

the 16s. He is a really popular gymnast in the camp. I was made up

for him, I really was. Hopefully, that is a bit of, identity no, a

sweetener for him not being part of London? This is his Olympics. You

could see the crowd going absolutely bonkers. I remember when Steve Frew

won his Commonwealth medal a few years ago. It was such an amazing

successful Scotland in gymnastics. But the fact that Scotland are now

expected to win medals on the floor, it shows the change in the whole

outlook for gymnastics in Scotland and Team GB. Yes, there has been a

massive shift in Scottish gymnastics and Welsh as well. I was so

impressed by Clinton Purnell yesterday. He was in qualification,

just missing out on the medal but he performed extremely well. It is

great to see. England, Scotland and Wales, vying for the medals. It is

going to be the same today. That is the thing, you were saying that

perhaps there would be medals for the Ingush boys but we knew that

yesterday, and chances for the Scottish boys as well, but more and

more, a chance, for the home nations to continue their dominance. The

Canadians did pretty well on the rings but the home nationss -- home

nations' dominance continues. Scotland have a real prospect on the

parallel bars with Frank Baines, qualifying in top spot. He has shown

real mature T, along with Nile Wilson. These are the boys that are

going to be adding out people like Louis Smith and Kristian Thomas. --

edging out. We have talked about a few stops, and I have been listening

in. -- a few sports. The youngsters have their fire in the belly. Not

just in competition but in training as well. Getting up at 6am, or 4am,

going to the pool, 7am, to go to the gymnastics. That is what they have.

It is really great to see. I am looking forward to today's

performances. I hope Frank Baines wins the parallel bars because

everyone should have a taste of the success. Thomas has not had such a

brilliant games but he is renowned for his faulting. -- vaulting.

Claudia Fragapane is into events today, and she will win the floor if

she is on her game, but it is the dreaded bean. I give you a medal

just for going up there. You are saying about the young people, the

fact they are able to look towards getting medals is because people are

doing that ahead of them, Whitlock, Keating 's, service, they are

looking at it and they know it can be achieved. If I think back to my

timing donor sticks, we did not have Louis Smith or Beth Tweddle. -- my

time in gymnastics. It was unknown territory. To try to go up to big

competitions and make a final seemed like a massive achievement. I think

we won something like 23 medals in the European Championships recently.

That was unheard of. You can't really underestimate what people

like Louis Smith and Beth Tweddle have done for the sport of

gymnastics, fall of the home nations. It is something they should

be really proud of. -- for all of the home nations. Louis Smith might

be a bit disappointed with his performance but he has done an

incredible amount already. It will be a fantastic day of gymnastics.

Thank you for joining us. Looking back on yesterday's success and

today's potential success. Jade Jones will be joining me very soon.

She picked up a medal last night on the track and this is how she did

it. COMMENTATOR: She is a real grafter,

won a bronze in Beijing. Perhaps she has not had the success on the track

we would have expected but it is so hard for these women right now. They

are all watching each other. It is about who is going to be brave and

take it out early. Roy has started to kick, picking up the pace and

making it hard on the rest of the pack. They come and to take the bell

and Shelly Woods is still a long way back. Jade Jones is in the best

position at the moment. Roy in the front and Ballard on the inside and

Christie Dawes behind her. Then Jade Jones, the youngster. And now Roy,

from the front, pushing hard, and Shelly Woods is a long way off the

pace. It is Ballard who has tucked in behind the Canadian. Down the

back straight. They are all completely spread out as Roy has

pushed on from the front and has really stretch them out. And Jade

Jones is into third place. Still an opportunity. Roy is at the front,

the veteran of the field, and sitting behind her, Ballard of

Australia. Jones is not far behind and maybe she can find a bit extra.

Roy, still pushing hard. As Ballard got the pace? It is going to be a

tight finish. The Australian might just about do it. It is going to be

gold, for Australia. Roy has to settle for silver. And an excellent

bronze medal for Jade Jones. 3:59, the winning time, and it was all

about tactics, being patient, difficult conditions. Roy did so

much of the work. Jade Jones just kept herself in a good position all

along. kept herself in a good position all

Shelly Woods will be so disappointed with our performance today, I'm

sure. She was never really in it, never really close enough. When it

got going, Jones was just about in the right spot. She did not quite

have the power of the other two. She is only 18 but that is a bronze

medal for Jade Jones of England. Well done to Ballard, perfectly

judged and well timed. a slightly fresher Jade Jones.

Congratulations. It was so incredible, I am just so happy. Is

that the first time we have seen you -- that you have seen yourself

winning the bronze medal? Yes, it is the first I have seen it

all the way through. It is incredible to watch it back. When I

crossed the line I could not believe it. I had to wait for it to come up

on the screen before I believed I was in third.

The conditions last night, it was a typical Glasgow's summers evening,

but a lot of rain around. How does that affect the handling of the

chair? On the 1500 metres you are going around four times, does it

affect handling on the corners? Not so much that, when you push in

the rain it is really slippy. It affects people in different ways. I

remember when Glasgow got announced as the nation that was going to be

holding the Commonwealth Games, my coach said, chances are it could

rain, so we're going to have to have something in place. I prepared for

the rain and I think I had prepared a bit better than some of the other

girls had. It affects people in different ways. I went into it ready

for that, so it did not affect me too much.

Here is the finish coming over, you said you could not believe you got

the bronze medal itself. There is the bronze medal presentation, Tanni

Grey-Thompson, your coach, giving you a medal. I think she was crying,

wasn't she? She was, it was such an amazing

opportunity to have her present it to make it was incredible. The fact

that you won the bronze medal for the Commonwealth Games was

sensational but the fact that your coach and someone who been such a

brilliant athlete, it must be super specialty was there to share the

moment? Yes, definitely. When I started she

was the one that got me into racing. To have that came to support all the

way through my career, it is incredible. She has been there and

done it all, she went to the Paralympics, she has the medals and

experience and to pass that down to me is incredible.

I heard John Inverdale talking the other day about the women's boxing,

the first time women's boxing has been in the Commonwealth Games, the

Para-sport events are in with the main events and it almost feels like

they have been here forever and maybe it should be.

I'm important is it for you that the athletics meet and you are in

amongst other athletes, as well, the medal ceremonies happen at the same

time, it is a real sport and it is being recognised. Yes, at previous

Commonwealth Games there had been a wheelchair events but the medals did

not count towards the tally. It provides such a good platform for

Para-sport 's and to showcase wheelchair racing at such a major

level and for it to be integrated so well is amazing.

You are only 18 at the moment, you already have a bronze medal at the

Commonwealth Games, what is next? I have the Europeans in a couple of

weeks, so no rest, back to training. Then I have the worlds next year, it

is all go. Listen, you entertained us thoroughly last night, wonderful

to see you when you're bronze medal in great to see you, so happy to get

the bronze medal from your coach who was clearly interiors!

That is the best thing about these Games, lots of tears, as well. Many

congratulations and good luck in the future, as well.

We will head over to Kelvingrove, with a chance for Jersey to win

their first Commonwealth medal for 24 years. It is Jersey against

Northern Ireland and Rishi Persad is there for us. What is happening?

Hello, DVDs. After four ends, Jersey are trailing at the moment. -- hello

Dougie. It is a busy day year, we have the final of the women's

pairs, the final of the men's fours, and after that it is the final of

the men's singles. But medals on offer today, but it is

Northern Ireland against Jersey, 4-3 to Jersey at four ends. Don't

forget, it is the highest aggregate score after 18 ends that wins the

medal. Let's join our commentators, John Price and Paul Mitchell.

COMMENTATOR: I think it is early enough in the game.

Unique that out, you are going to get three. Get it the wrong way, you

are only dropping one. -- you make that out. Bronze medal play-off.

I think she will only go one down. If she gets the second bowl solid,

she gets a three. If she does get the jack, she will go with it. The

worst result is the back end of your own bowl, that would be very

unlucky. I know that Mr Thompson would try

this. He would, no question. Andy Thompson would go for this.

A good coach would just say, he sensed the fact she did not fancy

the shot, no point in playing it. You have to be sure.

Interesting decision. It was a good opportunity, Paul. She could have

gone one down, but she would have been really unlucky.

Yes, the percentages were in her favour. But, I suppose, if you do

give the shot away, then it is for each, you think, I should have been

two ahead. It is a decision sports people have to meet all the time. We

shall have to have a word about that later on when we see her. We will

have a chat about that decision. I would like to have a little banter

with the coach, I will tell him, I thought you were an attacking coach?

! He has part of the bus, Paul. That

is a good phrase, he has parked the bus fare.

He is a good lad, he does not mind as having a little dated.

Definitely not. -- he does not mind us having a

little dig. Very good, Katie Nixon. Big smiles,

enjoying it. A little glance at the technology

that is on offer to us. It can be an added consideration, as

well, John, these players are not necessarily used to being in front

of the television cameras. That is an added bonus of being part of the

Commonwealth Games. If you get success, the cameras will come

calling. It is certainly a chance to enhance your profile, isn't it? Make

a name for yourself. Played in Delhi as part of the

triples, Mandy Cunningham of Northern Ireland.

Well, just have to it and ran on through. -- just halfed it.

I don't fancy that line. She was told very quickly by Katie

that she was tight. Yes, she is aware of that short,

Northern Ireland bowl. She does not want to push the end. This makes it

difficult. Well played.

Well, she left the door Open. In a way it is easy enough for her, Paul,

she can afford to be more positive. She got a good bowl through the

jack. Certainly worth playing this. She has a chance here.

Well, removed the wrong one. It was a good try, just maybe

attired overweight to get the bend. -- a tad.

Very well played. That opened it up and two shots.

It is a little bit chilly around here, you have to stay warm.

Mum has given up her court there. -- court -- jacket.

time about it, but well through, though. A little loose, this end, at

the moment. Just overplayed that. It would have

gone all the way, I think. Katie Nixon, the line was good. Can

she dropped the weight off? No, still a bit too keen, overplayed

that. Yes, no alteration on the shot. In fact, slightly heavier.

Northern Ireland lying one. You cannot be perfect for all 18 ends.

If nothing else, it is consistent, they are still there, still

available to the skip, if she can get a little trail.

Barbara Cameron at her fifth Commonwealth Games. She is looking

for her first Commonwealth Games medal. She last played in Melbourne,

in 2006. It just gets in, there. A good line.

She properly had 18 inches left, for that, got inside the back bowl. Any

movement on the Jack would be really good, here. Very close with this, if

it runs, very close. Great shot, good bowl.

There it is, coming in. Excellent bowl, there.

That is well played by Jersey. Some food for thought for Mandy

Cunningham and Barbara Cameron. They had a terrific match in the

quarterfinal against New Zealand, winning 14-10. They just could not

find their way past the English pair of Jamie-Lea Winch and Natalie

Melmore. Did Barbara want to swap onto the

other side of the green, her backhand, to try to get a shot of

the second bowl. Slightly down, falling. -- for length. She will

persevere on the forehand, I think. It needs a very good weight on this,

dead weight. The weight was pretty good. It was a

good attempt. There was not much for being heavy on that side.

The heavens have opened in Glasgow and the rain is coming on strong.

Dipping away. Wanted to put the ball out. A little touch on that and you

are away. A single shot. is a good story to tell. -- whoever

scores this medal. That is not like Katie. Both of

these have been playing good bowls. I am sure it is only a minor setback

at the moment. Yes, she will redouble her efforts. That is a good

adjustment by Mandy Cunningham. She adjusted the line and the

weight. Come on, Katie, run it out. Well

played. APPLAUSE Back on song. That was played to

order. So, Jersey live one. -- Jersey lie

one. This is not easy. She has to be careful she does not move the shot

bowl. Anything onto the Jack is not really good from a Jersey

perspective. Inside the shot bowl is very good. Inside the rest of

Sensible decision, to go on the forehand. She does not want too

much. That is a good result. That is OK.

It is better that you do it before your opponent does.

Jersey bowl, either side of the Jack. That is an improvement but

there is still a target for Barbara Cameron, if she can play good

weight, turn the Jacaranda Corner. -- turn the Jack around the corner.

She has put that on a line. Very tight with that. Do you want to

change your hand? It is up to you. Lindsey Greechan, looking to reach

onto the bowls. Getting closer to the Jack, resting on it, now. But it

is the same shot, isn't it, turning the Jack around the corner, Barbara,

reaching it with a couple of feet? I mean, I would play this on the

other side if I was Lindsay. If she gets her own bowl solid, she moves

the Jack closer to her own bowl. If she gets the Jack on the wrong side,

she could turn it on to the Northern Ireland bowl, of the backhand. The

forehand suddenly becomes a much more attractive shot. She has got to

persevere on the backhand. I think she is hoping to go past it. That is

a very inside line. That is the trouble, you see, playing a little

bit negative. The forehand shot looked a more positive shots to

play. -- positive shot. Also interesting for Barbara Cameron

because potentially, she could get it wrong and drop a two. But she

does have the best back bowl. So you are probably better to be slightly

overweight than underweight because that could do more damage. I think

she will play this with controlled weight. If she gets the Jack

through, as you say, she has the back bowl.

Here she comes. She is looking tight. If I was going to be playing

with that weight, I would have played it of the other hand because

it is the better hand. -- off the other hand. But she decided to go

off the backhand and a single shot. the Games and their first medal

since 1990, Jersey lead Northern Ireland. Members of the Jersey media

are overcoming the Games, they have made their way to Kelvingrove. This

is the place where the story will come.

We can see the four greens here at Kelvingrove, there is another one

just over the road beside the Kelvingrove, there is another one

practice green. Two oranges today on the final day of the lawn bowls

competition. -- two are in use today.

Yes, and if Jersey did take the medal here it is a good start for

them to build on for the future. The men's team is a very young team.

They have some good players there and they played very well in the

fours, we covered them one evening session. Really good bowls.

Hopefully, if those guys stick together, they can achieve some

success in major championships. Well, Jersey are involved in the UK

in the home international series. Yes, it is all good weight on those

bowls. Needs a contact, solid contact.

Flying with that. But it is the best back, so you never know.

Northern Ireland have a little bit of position here, that Jersey bowl

is in a good place. On the wide line, any weight down

there as a chance of getting back. A little bit of an adjustment

required. Looks better with this.

This has a chance. And it comes. That looked good all the way, and

the marker put the two blue marks in the air to signal two shots almost

before that bowl came to a complete stop.

A little bit of injury to the jack if if she was overweight. I think

she will play the same drawer. -- a little bit of danger.

Yes, there is danger of that, the Northern Ireland bowls are waiting.

As long as she is good weight, not a problem.

A touch and it would be very good. Trying to get there is the job of

Barbara Cameron. I think that will probably be a true

of friction at the moment, not a lot in the game but Jersey have outside

advantage. Just been playing slightly better,

won the last three ends. -- a true reflection. Well, the mat

is up, how far as the jack up? I think that is up comfortably. Even

with my eyesight! It has to pass two tests, the first

one is the John Price eyesight test, and if it feels that, then the

measure. -- if it fails that. Good length again. Mandy Cunningham.

Barbara Cameron called on the other side then. Difficult this. Got a

solid. Got away with that, bit overweight.

This is Katie Nixon. And very successful player for jersey.

Well, you know, nothing particularly close. I am confident Lindsey will

draw inside that, she has been playing well.

Playing the forehand, the main thing is you hit the right line on it. Get

inside and it will swing away, but it the right line and you have a

chance. Yes, a good example there of it just

starting to swing away. A good weight, this, this will start

to drop. Just didn't send it. Three shots.

This is what the players like to see, the flag was absolutely still.

No wind. There has been a couple of tricky days when the wind has been

up. That really needed a little more of

a push. It has turned it into a measure.

She would have loved to have turned that over just that little bit.

It is difficult to see from our angle. She has moved that bowl 16

inches, probably. I do not think she is three down now, but she could

easily still be one down. Well, she is having a look to CF,

potentially she could do, but it is not a particularly tight pair of

bowls. It depends what she thinks she is

holding. If she is holding more than one, she has to be careful, there is

what of danger. She might be worth playing the last bowl. Still no

indication from Catherine Kenny, the marker.

Now there is, one shot being held by Northern Ireland. Just the one.

Well, she is playing the bowl. Very close, too, very close. She has got

it clean. That is a great bowl. As clean as.

Contact absolutely solid, and it hung around, too. There could be

four in this. As I said, Paul, if she was only

holding the one it might have been worth playing at, and she did play

it. If she was holding two, she probably would not have bothered.

That was a good shot by Barbara Cameron, good choice, executed

really well. It is a four.

All of the work done by Jersey in the last three ends to take a four

shot lead is wiped out there on the 10th end. Eight to play, and all to

play for. That is a good opener. Jersey were

disappointed to drop four, there. They need to compose themselves

again. Mandy is close. A good place, that, at the back.

Good again. Come on, come in. APPLAUSE

A good weight. The only disadvantage is, it stopped right by the side of

the Jack, the truck man -- track Mandy has gone down. But she has

pulled in the line. Just underneath. Now, then, close this down. And

identical bowl to the last. -- and identical.

Decent line, very decent line with this. Well played, great bowl.

Second prize, there. Just not holding up for Northern

Ireland, there. Katie is playing for the back position. I don't know if I

would have tried to play that, I would have boasted of. If she moves

the Jack, even a foot, it could be a bit too negative. She has wasted a

bowl, now, leaving that open. That is OK, there. A nothing bowl in the

end because the Jack will go the other way. I would go with the

opponent, if you're playing good weight, you tuck the Jack, and if

you are a foot down, you are closing the end down, but they have left

them another opportunity at this. She does not need to be invited

twice to have a go. Here she comes. That is a good point that you make,

John. Your opponent has still got to play it but the chance was given to

them. Yes, it is a good bowl. And the back position is certainly

mixed, anyway. A good second out of that, now. She must stay on the

backhand. She has got to stay there, and get to the last bowl.

It is a Northern Ireland bowl. It has changed out, she played the

wrong shot with the first bowl and her headers with Northern Ireland

because Barbara can afford to play this, and if she gets the bowl for

two, she will get the Jack, 42-macro. It is all about playing

the right shot at the right time. -- for two. It just goes to show, the

bowl furthest on the left of your screen as you look at it was a

nothing shot. It is the first time I have questioned Lindsay's judgement.

I thought she has played a really good game, made good cause, but she

had a chance to close down the end and score three or four herself, and

took the pressure off Barbara a little bit. -- made good calls.

Of the forehand, with a bit of pace to it. It is in the area. If the

It is a quiet draw, now, that is all she has got. Yes, it does not look

like there is too much danger. Off the backhand.

A sideways grip, then turning the hand. Mayor gently, gently. A bit

pacey, but she is OK, no damage. Well, we hoped for a tight game and

that is precisely what we have got in the battle for the bronze

It has been a good game, too. Yes, some good bowls played, good shots

played. It would be lovely if this weather could just move through.

played. It would be lovely if this bit of sun shining would be lovely

for everybody watching here. A big day at the Kelvingrove Lawn Bowls

Centre. The women's pairs, the men's fours and then the men's singles to

close out the competition. Katie played a really good end, the

last one, but a Rush of blood with the first bowl in dissent. She needs

to take a breath. -- in this end. That is a better bowl.

Now, then, Katie. A good line, and has it got the wait? -- weight.

I don't know about this. It has to get past the front.

Northern Ireland lie two. Arguably, Jersey have the nicer back bowl.

It is a decent line. She wants the Jack. The Jack is good. She played

it well. APPLAUSE That is a really good delivery. It

is good stuff. I am sure her husband, Tommy is in the crowd and

he will be well pleased with that one. The Mrs done good. She has

played very well. All four players are playing their part to make this

a very interesting tussle. That is the Jersey coach, Andy Thomson.

She will be further to this. -- firm to this. There is more than one way

to do it. She used a bowl to get across. One down. She is sensible.

She is going to play the same side. You can see, that is the angle and

she was there, a bit fortunate but played it with good weight. Now

Lindsay pulling the line onto this one. Way into the line. She just

needed to play the same line as the first bowl. Both goals coming in

that way, a little wider, belonged to Jersey. That will be frustrating

for her. -- both bowls coming in that way.

The wait was good on that bowl. -- weight. Just sticks a bit when you

get to the high line, off centre. It does not move.

An important delivery now for in C. -- for Lindsey Greechan.

She is in two minds. Don't look down that side, you have played two down

that side so to swap on the last that side, you have played two down

will be difficult. It looks tempting. But it is not the shot to

play. Just play down the same line, increase the weight by a yard. It

looks better if it gets back. She has pushed it a bit too much. The

weight she wanted, she had to promote those bowls. It was probably

a metre overweight, that is all, not a lot. It would have turned the

bowls over, and then... I still think it was the right shot to play.

To swap sides on an outdoor green with your last bowl is sorry

difficult. -- very difficult. That is how difficult it is out

there. 1-shot, to Northern Ireland. They are sticking together. It is

going to be a tense last third of this game. The quality has been

good. We trust it will continue. 10-10.

There is no good way to whereupon show! -- to wear a poncho!

The crowd is building in the stands. It is a big afternoon for Scotland.

The men's fours final coming up, Scotland against England. And then

the men's singles gold up for grabs. Canada, looking for their

first ever gold medal in the Commonwealth Games lawn bowls

discipline. She pleaded well, but such a big

swing away. If you don't quite get it perfect, you are in trouble. --

she played it well. A little bit frustrating, that

aside. You think you are good and you just go under.

Lindsey Greechan is going playing a lot of weight here. She

will hold that. She could fit a second bowl.

Got a chance, it's it firm. Nicely played, gets it through.

That is an improvement, it is down to one and left them with three

microseconds -- three seconds. Lindsey is going to play this

again, I think. She does, she wants to go firmly at it, get the two

bowls. Will it get down off that line?

Just hitting there. I feel Barbra will play the same

line as the last delivery. She has going for a cover of bowl in

this corner of the rink, the bottom left-hand corner.

I am not sure of the value of that, to be honest with you.

I am not convinced, either. You start to have a look and think,

where could it go? She is lying two. Lindsey has had a pop at the bowls

with her first and second. She will be tempted to go again.

Well, she decided against it, she is going to draw off the forehand.

She gave that a good chance. Just didn't run enough. A little bit more

weight. Two shots. I just thought she might have gone

again then. She went with the second bowl and nothing really changed. If

it is the right shot with the second bowl, it is the right shot with the

third. Yes, Northern Ireland take the lead

for the very first time in the match, 12-10. It is always an

interesting thought, as you mentioned, if it has been the right

shot to play, to try at, and bearing in mind there is only two down, if

it was five or six time you would try with the weight shot to save,

but in those circumstances... She was unlikely to go more than two

down. Yes.

They have to guard against it at this stage, jersey, made a very

positive demand if he let it start getting to them they will start

choking on a few shots. A couple of times you have praised

Lindsey Greechan for her shot decision, but a couple of times in

the last couple of ends a little bit of disagreement.

A bit of self doubt, it is the business end of the match now and

you have to be positive. You have to go and win it. It is not going to be

given to you. Played well, pretty steady all

through. Good effort. It just needs to run.

Just refusing to do so. That is good fanfare. -- round

there. Well, it is a good effort for a

chance. Northern Ireland and live the shot,

jersey with the three blue bowls rake in front. -- live the shot.

That is a really good bowl. Needed another one there.

It had a nice swing to it, it came back well.

Similar shot required, perhaps. Make sure you are reaching, though.

Well, played it on the forehand to try and promote. Did not like it

immediately. That is dipping underneath, as well.

This could be another bowl down the green. Not easy for Lindsey.

Yes, a little bit of weight. Drifting across, what has she got?

That is a great bowl. That is the way she has been playing, nice and

positive. That is a great bowl. Even Andy Thompson is on his feet at the

back of the rink. It was there, she took it. Well

played. Just held up enough, through the gap, a little touch, left and

right. They were Jersey bowls she came off.

The jack jammed in right at the very back.

It is a little way from the jack, but it will be difficult to beat on

this length. Of course just been right at the

back, as well, it just takes another few inches and gives the advantage

to the bowl and of the Jack. If that was right at the front you have a

little more room to play with. A draw to the edge of the ditch

required. Barbara Cameron. A little chance here. She has to go

to the draw shot after the drive, but it is a good opportunity.

Scurrying down. Take your time, girl. Deep breath.

Every bowl is important now. Well, just seeing a little bit of

adrenaline there. Needs to run under that, needs to

run under that... She is going to get away with that.

Never quite got fat on the line. Still enough, though. Just enough.

A little bit fortuitous, she got away with it.

Commonwealth Games are called, it has been 9-9, ten have -- 10-10, and

now 12 - 12. Four to play. A big crowd.

A quality game. Jersey and Northern Ireland. That is a good start, a

length bowl, first delivery. Whoever wins this will have earned their

bronze medal, really earned it. Certainly, some good bowls played by

all four ladies. Andy has just bought -- Mandy has

just pulled a line in, there, trying to make adjustments for the first

bowl. Probably her worst two bowls of the game. Yes, she has been

having a really good game. Start to move. It needs to bend a

bit. Not enough to get back to centre.

Yes, Mandy, well done. She has run that out well. Oh, it went a bit

further than it looked. I thought that was going to stop. I think

Barbara thought she had contact on the side bowl, but it just dipped.

Still two shots. I thought she had got this, here.

That is another shot. Three shots, lying. Nothing particularly close.

A couple of moments of the green for Katie Nixon.

Barbara Cameron, who made her Commonwealth Games debut in 1994,

seeking her first medal. She needs the Jack, on that weight. Yes,

running it through. These are dangerous ends. It is a Lucent and

you could easily drop four or five, playing like this, with a loose

delivery. It is a tighter line from Lindsey

Greechan. Yes. Well... It could be in the count. Yes, that will count.

Not a great bowl. Barbara will want to draw this one in. She won't want

to leave it until the last. The danger here, having gone through, is

that you might leave something a bit short. Barbara is a very experienced

player. You would think she could make the adjustment. That is

certainly a better line. Good play from the long-time Northern Ireland

international. Here she comes. Well played. I think she has got a second

out of it. It looks like second shot. She will settle for that at

this stage. It is a Lucent and she gets a second off it. -- it is a

loose end. She is having a quick word with the

manager but I think all she has got is a draw, draw the second.

Now, then. A better weight, with this. It has got a chance. APPLAUSE

Well played, number Well, they could have a run at this,

Northern Ireland. They have got very good back bowls, a good back

position. Yes, dead bowl. We will see what happens, but those

belonging to Northern Ireland have the red stickers. If she plays a

forehand, she would have to be very wide to get her own bowl away, that

is the only disadvantage but she would have to miss badly on the wide

side. If she misses the Jack, she is going to get one of the other bowls

away, to reduce the count. I would be tempted to play this. If she gets

the jackfruit of the ditch, it could be a four. -- the Jack through to

the ditch. Lindsey Greechan could not play anything other than she

did. If Brobbel gets the jackfruit, you just have to say, " well

played". -- if Barbara gets the Jack through. Very controlled weight.

What is she getting? She takes one. A single shot.

Well, there is more than one way to play it. The shot we were talking

about would have gone a bit more. It would have gone quicker but she

could have got the result and scored a second, so it was still good.

The University of Glasgow in the background. We are watching the

women's pairs bronze medal match, Jersey with the advantage by just a

single shot. Come on, Katie, are you come. Great

start. -- up you come. CHEERING Concentrate on your job. APPLAUSE

And again. Now, then. I tell you what, that is

not a bad opening four bowls. Good line in. A flick would have

been OK on that side but she has got a good place, a good cover bowl.

This is a good end of bowls. Mandy is in the area, again. In the area.

She has got the Jack and that was a really good bowl in the end. Really

good shot. Just worked nicely. It came through. I then think her skip

will be unhappy about that even though she is not lying shot. It is

not necessarily a problem. Don't worry, Mandy. Plenty of time

to change. We could do with one of them right

now. I wonder if he has bought any more? Inside the line, that is not

going to affect the end. It is way inside. The only thing is, she has

gone across to the other side of the ring, maybe she can slide across and

put the forehand in with a good weight. -- of the rink.

It is a way under it, Mandy. She did not like it. It is all that, not

going grey far. She did not like it, but I tell you what, I thought she

was in a decent position. It held the line. Lindsey needs another

bowl. Katie's bowls are looking a bit lonely.

This is another chance coming here. She has got to play this. She could

play it off the forehand side, underneath the shot bowl, taking the

Jersey bowl, clean. If it goes, it will be. The bonus is, hopefully, if

you get the Jack solid, hopefully you will go through with it.

It looks a bit high, for that. Yes, she is trying to play a nice,

controlled weight. I am not sure if that is a shot because that Bell is

down the green. If she gets under there with that weight, she will die

the way. We have got a great view, right behind it.

Time for Lindsey Greechan to see what she wishes to do. Both skips

with one bowl to play. It is not going to hold up. But

where is it going to finish? At this stage of the game, I think this is

worth a gamble. Attack the shot bowl. An element of risk if you get

a half on the Jack but they are pretty mixed, there. You would be

unlucky to go more than one down. You would be very unlucky to give

three bowls away. Two potentially, but all three.

She has made a tribal, which at this stage in the game is a good lead,

isn't it? It could be a winning shot.

-- she has made a credible... Barbara Cameron. It looks under the

line. Well, she has moved it across. It is a Northern Ireland bowl.

They have got two out of that. It is two.

Welcome it wasn't what she intended, I think that is to say. Very, very

good results. Well, still two ends to play, the

bronze medal at stake between Jersey and Northern Ireland.

This could be the margin between winning the bronze medal and missing

out on it. That is a good result. Jersey reached the same stage at the

women's pairs are few years ago. They missed out on bronze in the

final shot in a play-off against New Zealand.

Is this going to be more Jersey heartbreak RRA finally going to

break the long, long streak of Commonwealth Games without a medal?

-- or are they finally. attempt. Great effort. What I reply.

What a great reply. Really good game, Paul. It has been

a battle. Some Games get more loose as you get

towards the conclusion, not this one.

The same bowl is good, just dropping onto the other side. She is not, it

is a forehand. It is a deceptive delivery. She

looked like she was lining up the backhand side, but she has picked a

good line, how is the weight but you might -- how is the weight?

Gave it a chance, it just fell out behind.

Trying again. Just inside it. That is not bad there, though, that is

Well, Andy Thompson is pacing around OK.

Well, Andy Thompson is pacing around like a caged tiger at the back of

the rink. This coaching job is a lot tougher, isn't it?

He is scratching his head, pacing around. Tough being a coach.

Well, at least he is here grinning. The old Silver Fox, he was that here

colour before he arrived. He is a great calming influence for these

two Jersey players. Yes, he has done at all and got the

T-shirt. Barbara Cameron.

Being urged down year, giving this a chance. Almost nipped the bowl.

She is playing this swinging side. If it goes in the line there, that

is not too bad. It might come across enough. There is still enough room

around that bowl. Well, it is a brave shot on here for

Lindsey. If she arrives on the back and lists the red away for four. If

you are going to play it, this is the bowl to play.

Well then. She has identified the shot.

Inside the line, though. She does not want to knock that in.

That is unlucky. That is so unlucky. If you are missing, you miss on the

wide side. She had to pop it out of the green, didn't do so.

Well, there have not been too many accidental turnovers in the match.

We have all played bowls we want back.

The Northern Ireland lion shot. -- lying.

Barbara Cameron. She is staying away, I think, with

that. She is probably well advised. Well, this is a big bowl now. Huge

difference between being too down and level going into the last. --

two down. On a plus point, it is only a single

they would drop here. On a negative point, they gave it away.

Forget the last one. What can you do for Jersey lately?

Well, has she got the weight on that line?

Will it hold? She is close, very close. She has got it! That is a

great bowl. That is an absolutely wonderful bowl by Lindsey Greechan.

Wonderful bowl. Well, how quickly in sport emotions

can change. Yes, well, you know, give her full

credit for this, she gave the second one away and she pleaded perfectly,

onto the bowl, onto the Jack, squeezed the Jack through, gets a

one and tied up for 14 each. What a play-off this is. One final end to

be played. At the very end of this, the bronze

medal will be decided. Is it a first medal for Mandy Cunningham and

Barbara Cameron? Or is it a first one for Jersey since 1990. No one

from Jersey has stepped onto a Commonwealth Games podium since

Colin Malet won the shooting bronze with his dad, Cliff, back in

Auckland 24 years ago. Good luck to both Jersey and

Northern Ireland. They have entertained.

Certainly agree with that. They will be disappointed parent of the end of

this end, that is for certain. chance to make history.

Front-page news, it will lead radio and television in Jersey.

Northern Ireland have had a good game is with the boxing, this would

be an addition from the lawn bowls centre.

A lot to play for here. She has played this really well, she has

nailed it. That is a great bowl. That is an absolutely brilliant

bowl. Mandy Cunningham. It just looks like

she is running through. They are going to chase this now, Aaron

there? -- are they not? It was the right thing to do, you did not want

to be short there. Centre of the rink for Katie Nixon.

Steady, steady. Needs it solid. That is OK, that is not bad at all. She

breathes a sigh of relief. That is not bad at all.

Well, you can feel the tension in the crowd, as well.

They have really appreciated the match.

Nice connection. She just got it the right angle. I just wonder whether

they are going to gamble and go for the two bowls, clear them. The

Jersey girls can see the finishing line now. Their hearts will be

beating. Well, they got to just try and take

a deep breath. You have been implied your situations, John, where the

prize was great and just not to get their leaves a sour taste.

Certainly have. It is great when you win close matches, but difficult to

recover, you do not sleep the night after when you lose one.

Commonwealth Games medal at stake. Now then, Mandy Cunningham. What is

she going to play at this? She is playing nice weight at it. I think

she is on the high side. It is not going to get back. What do you do

now? Do you go deep and try and cover the bowls or make it

difficult? I think because you have got

threebowls I would try to play something to start. You could play

round the back, cover the re-spot should the Jack go off the rink, but

I think with your first one... should the Jack go off the rink, but

You have to think what your opponent is going to do. I have a feeling

Barbara will attack these two bowls.

Plenty going on. She's decided to go deeper. She's covered in the spot

position. Now then, Barbara, what it you going to play?

She's even contemplating a draw shot, I think.

It's what you've played on the day, it's what you feel comfortable

with, what you think gives you the most chance. She's had three bowls

at this so three chances. This player is from Ballymena in

Northern Ireland. A role in bold. Controlled weight.

-- a rolled in bowl. I think you will go for the drive

and clear the two bowls. Now then, Lindsay, you need to close this off

if you can now, just inside the line. That's not a great ball they

are because she's got to give her shoulder. Didn't want to be down

that gap. That's where Barbara is just gone with the control ball. All

you're going to do is invite trouble.

She's got to go off this on the forehand if she's wide.

That's the second ball for Barbara. She has won the remaining. -- she

has one remaining. She was high like she was last time.

She called it in from the high chicane. That's where you didn't

want to be, as I said. That ball is not there. She's wide. She was

playing it then because the shoulder was there.

After five Commonwealth Games, Barbara Cameron is on the verge of

picking up her first medal Jersey were defeated at this stage three

years ago. Can they avoid a heartbreaker against Northern

Ireland like I had against New Zealand? In she comes. It's Northern

Ireland's medal. A tough way to lose a match but a

great way to win one. They did awfully well.

It's a sore one to take for Northern Ireland. They win it by the

narrowest of margins. And jersey remain medallists were -- remain

without a medal. An incredible shot for Barbara Cameron. The chance was

there and she took it. She's despondent. Absolutely

despondent. It is a tough way to lose. Ibid. Moment for Barbara

Cameron, first medal. Andy Cunningham is delighted. Lots of

emotion down there for Northern Ireland. A sporting handshake from

Andy. You can see how much that means. That will hurt for quite some

time. That will really hurt. A wonderful sport, this, when you have

success, but it can be a heartbreaker, as well. Barbara

Cameron was given a bit of encouragement. What a match. 29

shots. A single shot separates. The bronze medal goes to Northern

Ireland, the first on the Bowling Green at Glasgow 2014. Mandy

Cunningham and Barbara Cameron defeated Nixon and Lindsay from

Jersey. Real heartbreak for jersey. No medals for 24 years and that

continues. Congratulations to Northern Ireland. Still to come this

morning, we'll have netball, hockey, a preview to boxing. Before all

that, let's catch up with the news. We've got factory boys and butchers'

SEC. Earlier this morning, Wales took on Northern Ireland to

determine the seventh and eighth place. Here is how it turned out.

Match number 33 of 38 in this netball competition at the 20th

Commonwealth Games here in Glasgow. Joining me in the commentary box for

Northern Ireland versus Wales is our resident expert on netball. Anita, a

good start for Wales. Yes, good movement through to goal from Wales,

certainly starting well, getting the ball through to the circle edge.

Something for Northern Ireland to look out for, particularly with the

work of Jones as she makes the transition from the mid-court. A

good hold thereby Somerville. Northern Ireland wanting to start

with Somerville. They have tried before against Jamaica but it didn't

work for them. They tried against Wales in the final match which had

me one, they might have qualified for the World Cup but it didn't work

there either. 88% on that occasion. Oh Hanlon to McCulloch. She's going

to try and find her first goal. Northern Ireland lead by two. A good

run, good vision by Susie. Trustees to start to work a bit

closer on the pressure being put on McCulloch outside the circle. Wales

need to see this through. No doubt about it. Beautiful work. That's

magnificent. The wing defence from Northern Ireland gives her team the

opportunity to get it out to a seven goal lead and it's their centre pass

after this Northern Ireland. Wales could be in big trouble here. It's a

tough morning at the office for Wales so far. 16-8. This has to drop

a brilliant job. No, it's not. She's missed it. Now Mosley, two from

seven in the first. She continues to miss the target.

We thought this one might be close and it might well turn out to be but

right now, it isn't much of a contest. Swung through to Becky

James. They still can't find the target here. One goal in the final

three minutes of the first quarter, one goal in the first three

minutes. This is uncharacteristic for Wales, particularly at the

centre pass. They're often very set in their structure and have a great

understanding. The last couple of centre passes have been a bit

scrappy for Wales. Oh Hanlon into Somerville. She suddenly found her

shooting boots again. Yes, Jones needs to support the attack and she

does that well. She allows Susie to drop to the circle edge and get a

sense that Wales may be forced to take the long shots. Good work from

Lennon and that real pressure point in the circle. Lennon clatters into

drones. -- Jones. James does well to keep

her concentration. The two defenders jumped into her. It's just so much

easier for Northern Ireland. Three passes and they're in.

The final two minutes of the first half. Northern Ireland 28, Wales 18.

Northern Ireland doing most of the damage in the first quarter and they

won 16 hyphenate. -- 16 - eight. She's scored 24 of the 29 goals.

She's positioned well and has the better of Kelly Morgan today. She's

got a stronghold. Wales in danger of scoring one goal

in the final three minutes of this quarter, just as they did in the

first quarter. Patiently building up the play. Good play from Northern

Ireland. Northern Ireland doing a great job. Just the one goal in the

final three minutes for Wales. The second half gets under way. No

changes the Northern Ireland. Wales have Chelsea Lewis coming back on as

we see Somerville open up her recount and extend the Northern

Ireland lead to 14. Chelsea Lewis in place of Becky James. Becky James 's

goal attack. Moses has moved to the bench. Suzy Drane drops to centre.

What do you make of the changes? We thought we would see Bethan Dyke on.

You would have thought Wales cannot play as poorly in the second half as

they did in the first. It is a good spell for Wales. They are starting

to claw back the goal difference. A chance for the centre bars. A

chance to get up to seven. -- pass. Anything but a given, the way the

game has gone so far. That has gone against Northern

Ireland. I thought it was good defending by Caroline O'Hanlon.

It is not easy for Wales, is it? That was good play by Becky James.

It is tough, the pressure is on. That was crucial for Lewis. It is

eight. Now, shooting from distance and the lead back out to ten.

I am glad to see the crowd are enjoying it. What a time for the

Northern Ireland shooters to be at the moment of the best percentages

of the competition. They have got themselves fired up for this

encounter. There is a glimmer of hope -- the glimmer of hope Wales

had has just been extinguished. That will not count. Northern Ireland,

leading by 11 with 15 minutes to play. Here we go. Wales get us under

way. Thomas throws away possession as her first contribution to the

match. Wales have had patches where they

have failed to score goals. A good build-up by Northern Ireland,

patiently waiting. Players getting the front position on the defence.

Wales caught on the chase. Losing structure at the back. It is usually

Nia Jones who communicates so strongly and she is on the bench.

Somerville is back on song. It is all about pride, now, for Wales. The

first ten minutes effective Northern Ireland, they got the lead, their

confidence, and they continued to build on that. That is the final

whistle. Northern Ireland have beaten Wales and beaten them

comprehensively. They finished seventh, Wales will

finish eighth. A huge congratulations to the team from

Northern Ireland. Winning three of the four quarters.

Not a bad morning with a win in the netball and a bronze medal in the

lawn bowls. We are joined by an English woman with a silver medal.

You've got the silver medal in the long jump. I watched it. What a

joyous occasion and a brilliant effort. Joyous does not describe it.

I cannot explain how much fun I had. The crowds were like something I had

not seen before. To have everybody screaming for you, it makes the

world of difference. This is the last jump and we thought you would

get it... I beg your pardon, that was your first. We thought you would

get the gold medal. It looked close. Two centimetres, which is nothing.

Watching it back, I think, stick your feet back further! I am so

happy with the Silver, I cannot complain. Not a tiny bit. I watched

it. To see you smiling and to get a sense of how much it meant to you.

How are you feeling today? You have done a lot of interviews. I still

cannot really believe it. I woke up this morning and saw the medal and

thought, oh, my God, it is there! I am still absolutely buzzing and all

over the place. But I am waiting am still absolutely buzzing and all

it to sink in. Give us a sense of the training and dedication that

went into getting that silver medal. It is a busy life. I train six days

a week and I am at university studying law. Every morning, a

training session, and then back to Bristol from Bath, to catch lectures

I'm based in the day. The training is not hard, it is everything else.

You train for a couple of hours a day, but you have to make sure you

eat right, get to bed on time, not do normal things for a 20-year-old.

Greg Rutherford talked about the reception he had at the Commonwealth

Games. He loved it and had a wonderful experience and kept

talking about how important the Commonwealth Games are to all of the

athletes. You will not speak to an athlete who will say, I am not

really bothered. Greg Rutherford's was inspiring. You could see how

much it meant to him. It is the same for me. It is a huge deal. I do not

know why people say it is not. It matters. This is a crucial step in

what I hope will be a long career. We are saying it is the biggest deal

for most athletes, extraordinary. Last night, you were taking part in

the long jump. How will where are you of other things going on? There

were a lot of finals and medals to be given out last night. How hard is

it to focus? It is finding a balance between focusing on your event and

not getting psyched out by your event. I wanted to enjoy the races

around me. I saw my friends running in the 200 semifinals and cheered

them on stock that is how I enjoyed myself stop and my coach always

says, enjoy yourself. That is where I jump my best. I want to be aware

of the crowd especially. The noise is extraordinary. Hampton is a

football stadium normally. It was run -- Hampden Park. It was really

done especially. The crowds do not realise how important they are, to

see the flags flying and everybody screaming, it pushed me down the

runway. The moment I stood up to take off my tracksuit, the crowd

went mad and to have that support, nothing can rival it. A lot of the

crowd wanted to see a lead child win her medal and dragged her over the

line, if need be, but support for all the home nations and territories

that makes a difference? The crowd, if there is someone to cheer for,

they will do it. It is not just the home nations, they think, right, no

home nation athlete, who can we cheer for? The athletes appreciated

100 fold. , wealth silver, what is next? My goal for the year was to

get to the Commonwealth Games. To come away with this medal, I am

done, I am chuffed to bits! It is fantastic. It is nice and heavy. It

gives a sense of the importance and how big a deal it is to win it. The

medals are what we are here for. We train day in and day out, so we can

win medals. This in my hand right now is a representation of work I

put in and my coach and the team around me. It is not just me. There

is hours and hours of work that have gone in from other people and it

materialises right here. It was joyous to see you being so happy.

Congratulations. Let's get a gold medal next time. Let's go for it!

We do not want you to leave us, but there is life boxing on BBC One

around lunch time, we reckon 1pm. The women's flyweight semifinals.

Yesterday was a day off for team England, but Dan Walker found out

they were not sitting about doing nothing.

As you know, the boxing ring has provided successful the home nations

with bronze medals already guaranteed. This is England, Sam

Maxwell, Anthony Fowler, Nicola Adams, Scott Fitzgerald, Joe Joyce,

Savannah Marshall and Qais Ashfaq. Sam, you face a Scots now, and an

acquaintance in Josh Taylor. I am looking forward to it. I knew I was

bound to find him -- fighting along the way. You are the highest ranked

Commonwealth boxer at the com of games and people are asking about

turning professional. Is it hard to concentrate on winning the right

middle? Not really. I am confident of bringing the medal back to

Liverpool. I am a fashion icon! You where the glasses well! You get on

well. Boxing is an individual sport, but what is the team ethic like? It

is fantastic. We have a laugh and take the Mick out of Qais Ashfaq.

Doing his hair, seeing how long it takes to get it done. We have a good

team spirit and that wins medals. Look at this left I, we saw the

famous blue ice bag on that gave few days ago. How EU prepared the latex

was and how is it? I did it on Monday and yesterday was fine. --

how are you preparing for the next one? You are guaranteed that bronze

medal but I imagine you will want the silver all the gold, you are

guaranteed the bronze medal. We have come for the gold medal and that is

what we are aiming for. Time to meet the big boy. Mr Joyce. Can we see

you fully? I am tall but I would not fancy my chances against you. You

have also got a degree in fine art and people must ask you how you

square up the fact you are a super heavyweight but like painting.

Working on the canvas, painting, I am back on the canvas again, but

also fighting on the canvas. Usain Bolt came past a few minutes ago.

The only one who stayed in here was Savannah Marshall, is that your

mentality, you are not here for the superstars but to win a medal? I

would rather have a medal any day. Qais Ashfaq, you are getting grief

about your hair. You have to look good. You have to take care of

yourself! Do you give more care to your opponent or your hair before a

match? There has been a lot of talk about you and Amir Khan, who you

said inspired you. I have looked up to him since I was a kid. He is a

friend of mine. To inspire people like he inspired me would be

amazing. Bring back as many medals as you can. Team England, serious

medal opportunities over the next few days. That boxing is coming up

on BBC One. Just so we're just didn't interview with us. She had

lots of people. -- jazz saw year. Thousands of people have been asking

for her autograph and getting photographs taken. Just as we came

on live, they all disappear. But she is clearly very happy with her

silver medal. Let's turn our attention to live squash now and the

first of the men's doubles quarterfinals. This is Daryl Selby

and James Willstrop against Lance Beddoes and Paul Coll of New

Zealand. Let's head over to Scotstoun. Susan Rose is there for

us. We've got some news coming up before we go to this match.

The New Zealand Paire expected to be here in the quarterfinals but it is

Lance Beddoes Paul Coll who take that position.

There we have Dave Clark on the right. And on the left, Paul Halls

B. They are the New Zealand coaching team, both formerly coaches in

England, but made their way across to New Zealand to work with the

players out there and doing a great job with all of them. So there we

can see Lance Beddoes on your screen, who didn't play in the

can see Lance Beddoes on your the doubles event with his partner

Paul Coll. Paul Coll also playing in the mixed doubles with Amanda

Landers-Murphy and, in fact, he will be playing straight after this in

the mixed quarterfinals. James Willstrop was just being asked

to put his eye protection where on. He had rested on his forehead but he

has to have it on. We can see a very comprehensive run-through for the

England pair. 2-0 victories all the way through from the last 16.

The English pair are the number three seeds.

Daryl Selby is based in Chelmsford and coached by his father Paul. Just

playing the doubles events here. He's playing in the mixed doubles

with Sarah Kippax later on today. They're in the quarterfinals. He

will be looking to get his first medal here. There is the English

coaching camp with Dominic Campion in the middle.

James Willstrop is the silver medallist in the singles event and,

indeed, in 2010 in Delhi. So I'm sure he's going to be looking to try

and gain the gold medal if he can from this men's doubles event. A

world ranking of number six in the singles at the moment. He is a

former world number one and, in fact, that is it young Noah, Daryl

Selby's son sat there with Daryl Selby's mum.

Daryl Selby is also a British National Party and. He won that in

2011. -- a British national champion.

Team England are doing very well at the moment. England have four - won

silver, two bronze. New Zealand have won bronze and Malaysia have won

gold. For those of you watching doubles

for the first time, you'll notice the court is considerably wider, 27

feet wide. As opposed to 21 feet for singles. The tin at the front of the

court is at 13 inches, as opposed to 17 inches for men's singles and 19

inches for women's singles. And for doubles, there is no video review so

it is purely down to the central referee today. He will be making all

the decisions. us, then. The New Zealand pair

looking to replicate their upset from the last 16 today.

So New Zealand get the match under way.

Good use of the front area of the court. James Willstrop stuck behind.

As you can see, the 13 inch tin makes a huge difference in the

doubles game. They are able to use the front area of the court much

more and it does pull the opponent forward. Very difficult to get onto

the ball. And again. As you can see, that

front area of the court is very, very important in doubles. It's all

about the pair that can get in front, attack. A bit of confusion

there. That's the great thing about the court being 27 feet wide - the

middle area of the court comes into play as an attacking position.

Bedding is really playing it down the side, tit.

A little lucky. Daryl Selby with a bit of a misfit. It spun off his

racket and just made it to the front wall.

Just the edge of the racket but made it to the front wall. So, 4-3.

Good use of the court. The ball being played into the middle by the

New Zealand pair that pulls the English players in and leave the

wings available to get into. A very good tactic.

not really have good site of the ball. The great teamwork.

A good example, the side, if you get it tight, it is just very difficult

to get it off the wall. Again, good pressure from the

England pair. Again, Paul Coll, he was unsighted

slightly. Should probably have asked for a let. But it gives the England

pair the lead. The white ball, somewhat cooler than

paying with the traditional black ball as you would at home in your

clubs. It has a tendency to die in the back corners. So, if you can get

it there, it works well. I think Paul Coll and Beddoes were

hoping that would be a winner. Let ball given.

Just whether back wall and floor meet. -- where's the back wall and

floor meet. That could have been interesting.

Fortunately, Paul Coll just jumping out of the way enough. That could

have been quite nasty. All in one piece. It is Paul Coll to serve at

6-8. A bit more patience required from

the New Zealand pair. Do not need to attack quite so soon. They certainly

cannot afford to give away points. That was good teamwork. Doubles is

all about communication, teamwork. match so far. It ends in a let. You

do feel that the English pair are just that little more patient. The

New Zealand pair looking for a quick point. Game point to the England

pair. Wow! That was a great hold on the

forehand side. You can see the English pair thinking it was going

to the forehand side. Both heading in the wrong direction.

And a good start from the English pair to take the first game. And

they lead 1-0. Player: When he comes out the

lights, it is hard to pick out. Coach: Watch the high line. The high

line. The highlift across. It can be soft.

David Campion saying particularly to James Willstrop to try to lift the

ball across the court more. Not to leave it in the middle, because it

is an opportunity for Lance Beddoes to play the backhand drop shot,

which puts them under pressure. That is the drop shot we are talking

about. Soft across the top of the players, over the top, and then

looking for the attacking opportunity. The English pair did

not have it all their own way. That could have been a nasty injury.

Surprising that Daryl Selby hit that ball. But they do know, generally,

where it is going and when to hit it. Right now, the English pair are

in charge, using the front of the court well. Just being more patience

than the New Zealand pair. I think, possibly, using their experience.

Not to short, too soon, not to go cheap, not to give away easy points.

The New Zealand pair need to do something similar. To settle down

and find their feet and then look for the attacking shot.

Prince Edward is in the crowds today.

England 1-0 in this quarterfinal match of the men's doubles event.

That wasn't good use of the middle part of the court. -- that was a

good use of the middle part of the court. Daryl Selby not able to

cover. That was a good decision not to hit

the ball. Particularly after the last one.

A little bit of chaos created by the Kiwi pair.

middle of the court. Daryl Selby lost his shoe in the process. Let

ball. So Beddoes querying a pick-up. Which

was called good. And then asking for a letter. -- and let.

Well, it's good to see the whole court being used. We really are

starting to see a really good construction of rallies now on the

doubles court. And a great folly. Great reactions.

-- volley. APPLAUSE

Frantic squash their on the doubles court. It is coverage from both the

pairs. Lance Beddoes coming across to help out Paul Cole, and then a

let required. So 3-1 to the New Zealand pair.

So pick up on the corner. Oh, possibly just got that.

So James Willstrop, forehand side, having to work really

hard against Paul Cole. Having to put everything into every shot.

Well, the great costs caught Nick there, Daryl Selby thinking it

should be a let, the referee disagreeing. -- a great crosscourt

nick. Oh! Incredible skill from both the

England pair and the Kiwi pair. Reactions galore. During that rally.

Paul Cole just getting hit by the ball on the final shot.

And an usual area there, Daryl Selby. He will not be happy big

that, I'm sure. -- happy with that. Couple of cheap points, then, from

the England pair. Need to steady themselves. Oh! Well, good from the

English pair, Selby really stepping onto that shot. Pushing it

crosscourt. Then again, Paul Cole not able to jump out of the way.

Well, again, Daryl Selby not happy at all. Saying that this is going to

get ugly. But it's the New Zealand pair that are in the lead.

few of those crosscourt mix, now. -- nicks. It is starting to have an

impact. Now, with a shot like that, it goes to 9-4.

Attacking plane then, from Beddoes and Cole. -- play. Really taking the

game to the England pair. And the New Zealand is still leading

9-5 in this second game. Kiwis. Covering the court incredibly

well. Teamwork, well, they are making a good job of that as well.

Doesn't always pay dividends in points. But on the whole, it's

working well. Daryl Selby be was saying -- Daryl

Selby was saying he wanted to play the ball and was not able to. As we

know, doubles are a rarity. Daryl Selby serving.

APPLAUSE. Maybe Paul Coll has been practising that crosscourt nick. It

is coming out at every opportunity. That particular one gives the pair

game point. Again, the frustration on Daryl

Selby's face was clear to see. He felt again it was a let ball, but it

was not to be. The New Zealand pair take the second game. 11-6. One game

all. We have a game on our hands. Doubles is the best-of-3 games. This

is the deciding game coming up. MUSIC DROWNS OUT SPEECH.

I cannot quite hear what they are saying to the New Zealand pair, but,

I am sure they will be a calming influence, keeping the pair on

track, trying to stop them getting too excited. They have already had a

good result here, beating the number five seeds. At the moment, they are

looking like the possibility of taking another scalp. They took the

game to the England pair with much more attacking squash. Getting the

ball wide, using the central part of the court and looking for the short

ball. In several cases, Paul Coll going for the crosscourt nick.

Taking the point. The English pair really do need to settle themselves.

Daryl Selby was a little bit frustrated with the decisions that

were made. It is easy to get drawn into conversation with the referee.

It can be unsettling when you do that, so he needs to refocus. He

needs to calm down. Just waiting for James Willstrop to

return to the court. Possibly a little bit of excitement

from Paul Coll. He just snatched at the ball a little bit.

That was good pressure. Absolutely whipping the forehand through. So

much pace on the ball. The shoe is on the other foot her

that. Daryl Selby having had several no lets on that side and it is now

the turn of Beddoes. The point is to be replayed. It did

not look that good, the pick-up, but not seen by the referees, clearly,

so a let ball played. Beddoes and Paul Coll are still

trying to be attacking. James Willstrop was on to bat at the

front. -- onto that. The English pair are looking for the attacking

play from the New Zealand pair. Well, the ball of Paul Coll was

called down. It looked like it could well have been up. A run of points

for the English pair. In fact, the ball just caught the

tea -- the T-shirt of James Willstrop. Very honest to say.

Frustration starting to play a major part in this game. Daryl Selby,

particularly. He is not happy. athleticism. Paul Coll, well, throws

himself at the ball. Early on in that point. There you can see. Kept

the ball in play. Well, they are awarding points for guts and

determination... Coll deserved that. The Kiwi team asking for a let there

and Beddoes was on his way. This game has got everything.

That's a cheap point at this stage in the game. Can't afford those.

Selby and Willstrop, then, just three points away from clinching

this match. Into the body, then,

Willstrop. Great drop shot there from Beddoes. Daryl Selby just

slipping but Willstrop not able to So the court attendant 's doing a

fine job. As they have been doing for the last week or so.

Just have a look at his movement. Just have a look at his movement,

though. Particularly when you are in the

final game and there's all to play for.

Oh, asking again on the pick-up. Beddoes not happy at all. Well, that

did not look good to me, I have to say.

Third time lucky, then, on that particular point.

UMPIRE: Please, Mr Selby. Well, Daryl Selby

continually going on about Lance Beddoes' movement, but as I say,

doubles does create interference. Paul Coll, then, trying to go

crosscourt. Let ball. Good crosscourt! Nice touch. So a

purple patch, here, then, for the New Zealand pair. Just one point

away, now, from drawing level. That's the kind of interference you

do get in doubles, sometimes on top of each other.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Not the kind of shot you really want

to be playing at this stage in the game, certainly not that low,

anyway. APPLAUSE

Well... And incredible get-there from Paul Coll. I'm not sure about

being a squash player. Maybe he should be in the diving team.

A clenched fist there from Selby, and Willstrop.

The question is, who can hold their nerve the best?

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Well, the New Zealand team, just a

little bit erratic here over the last couple of points. They have put

the ball in the middle of the court. It's opened the opportunity

up on that occasion the Daryl Selby. -- the Daryl Selby. That is the

England pair match point. Now, they need to do it again. That

is if they want to draw level. Match to the English pair.

You can almost feel everyone who is watching

A standing ovation. It was a wonderful display of doubles squash.

Not only the Wade to play the game, but sheer guts and determination --

the way to play. Got the English pair through. It is the English pair

that take the victory. What do you say about a match like that? It was

so close. The New Zealand pair were within touching distance of beating

Daryl Selby and James Willstrop. Two points away from claiming victory

themselves. They gave absolutely everything.

A great atmosphere there and behind me in the tent. Texas were playing

live and the lead singer joins us now. How are you? Very happy that

went well. It was a great audience. It sounded amazing, sitting here.

The Commonwealth Games, how much of you enjoyed it? I have been really

enjoying it. I said onstage that Scotland, it takes a 13-year-old to

get everybody into shape! I was watching the bowls this morning. I

reckon I would be really good at it. You might see me in the team next. I

am feeling that. I am feeling the uniform and everything! I want to be

in the blazer. We need to get the old school look back. It is about

the home nations, as well, and the general feeling around. The way

Glasgow performing as a city and welcoming the world. You know when

you travel around and playing and meet people, Scots are like

Gypsies, we love to travel and find out things and meet people and take

different cultures and food. But to welcome different countries to our

country is something quite special. Everybody who comes to Scotland says

they have an amazing time. There is a lot of that going on at the

moment. Texas, what are the plans for the future? We have just got

back from New York. It is 25 years this year. There will be a single

out and that will be before Christmas and then they album will

hit and we will tour next year. It is great you joined us after coming

out from the show. Incredible. Earlier, the Scotland-- Scotland

women's hockey team took on India. Nicky Jarvis, in the coaching

corner, will be pleased with what he saw.

Looking to bounce the ball back. That was great positioning by the

umpire. The second corner Scotland have forced. Robertson to inject.

One from 24 the tournament so far, Scotland. It clipped the front

runner and it will be another corner.

Nimita Toppo, she collected the ball. You see in the men's game they

put kneepads on and it makes sense, the speed the ball travels, that you

put on as much protective gear as you can.

Ralph corrected the ball and that was not where they wanted it to

finish up. Opting for the hit on this corner. The body position was

slightly wrong. Yellow. The Indian number 16, I

think. India are dangerous in this position. They have not had many

opportunities. That is where you want your strikers

to send the ball. An excellent position for Scotland. A penalty

corner. It was an open goal. Pretty much sums it up for Scotland. It was

great play. Emily Maguire dragging the ball back slightly and tried to

play it to Linda Clement. Could not get the pushy needed. -- the push

that she needed. Kidd. Again, Savita, she saves

India. It is the first goal. Anupa Barla.

They have hurt Scotland where it hurts the most. There was a

deflection. It felt really nicely for Anupa Barla. Scotland seeking

the equaliser. REFEREE: It is a no stick tackle.

They say I called it. Can you check and see if there was a stick tackle.

Thank you. Not a bad time to make a referral.

1-0 up. It was good play by Clement. Closing the ball to Alison Bell.

Penalty corner, a stick tackle. That was the referral. The referral has

been rejected. What can Scotland do with their eighth penalty corner?

Kidd. It is in. Perfect for Scotland. 1-1. At last, the crowd

are up on their feet. It is relief for the home side. 15 minutes left

to go. It was a goal she deserved. Kidd, she opens up her body to put

the ball on the foot side. The goalkeeper, Savita, took a step

stick side. This will be card time. The Scottish

number six. Stick tackle and two minutes in the sin bin. Scotland

with ten players. A quick shot and what a bullet. It is 2-1.

Poonam Rani, she puts them ahead. It was great play, to off-load it as a

Scottish defender closes down. She has time to take two touches.

Getting the ball out of the trouble zone. But it is all over the these

teams. It is India, in this fifth and sixth place classification

match, given their all, Scotland, but India take the fifth-place.

Scotland's campaign in the women's hockey finishes in defeat and

congratulations to India, who finished fifth. Coming up, live

bowls. England against Scotland. Before that, a news update.
