:00:31. > :00:41.Olympic champion. Rebecca Adlington is bringing it home for Great
:00:41. > :00:52.
:00:52. > :01:02.Great Britain kept the gold medal! Yes, yes! What a performance.
:01:02. > :01:22.
:01:22. > :01:32.Dazzling. Intense. Flashy. Colourful. Truly unforgettable. And
:01:32. > :01:37.
:01:37. > :01:41.Welcome to Tokyo, the host of the World Gymnastics Championships.
:01:41. > :01:47.Last night it was the stage for a dramatic pommel horse performance
:01:47. > :01:51.and Great Britain's Louis Smith was in the spotlight. Anything can
:01:51. > :02:01.happen on pommel horse. There was almost a feeling of all or nothing
:02:01. > :02:08.
:02:08. > :02:13.here. As far as difficult is and he lost it in the very last bit.
:02:13. > :02:23.That was a huge shame. We will it be enough? We will have to wait and
:02:23. > :02:24.
:02:24. > :02:32.see it. He keeps his cool. Tommasone goes ahead of Smith.
:02:32. > :02:38.lad will challenge. What is the pressure like out there? It seems
:02:39. > :02:48.the key in this final is stay on! This is the man that can stand in
:02:48. > :02:56.the way of Louis Smith. Krisztian Berki or, world pommel horse
:02:56. > :03:00.Louis Smith deserves a gold medal for ever but I'm sure he's happy
:03:00. > :03:04.with a bronze. More vibrant gymnastics to come. The men will be
:03:04. > :03:09.hitting the roof with the vault. The girls will balance on the beam.
:03:09. > :03:12.The men will finish up around the bars. But there is one other final
:03:12. > :03:22.that Great Britain will be very interested in because it includes
:03:22. > :03:43.
:03:43. > :03:53.Beth will be in motion later on but we will start today's apparatus
:03:53. > :03:59.
:03:59. > :04:03.be a master of speed, co-ordination and elegance. The margins are high.
:04:03. > :04:11.Get it right and you will soar like an eagle. Get it wrong and there is
:04:11. > :04:14.nowhere to hide. So the top three from last year's World
:04:14. > :04:23.Championships are all in this vault final, including the current world
:04:23. > :04:29.and European champion from France. There is one athlete who is not
:04:29. > :04:35.involved in this as he was injured yesterday. The current world
:04:35. > :04:40.champion, current European vault champion. Highest qualifier here.
:04:40. > :04:50.You can see the chalk on the shins. Those legs will be grabbed and
:04:50. > :04:57.
:04:57. > :05:02.the look on his feet every time! That is going to take an awful lot
:05:02. > :05:07.of beating. I have seen him do that a dozen times in the last month and
:05:07. > :05:12.he stuck it every time. Absolutely massive. Another chance to see it
:05:12. > :05:16.here. I thought he had almost left the half-turn too late that he
:05:16. > :05:20.hadn't. He timed it perfectly and brought his feet either side of the
:05:20. > :05:24.white line. The great thing about this landing is you can see him
:05:24. > :05:34.spotting the floor. As long as you have got the height you can time it
:05:34. > :05:37.
:05:37. > :05:47.perfectly. 16.666! A difficulty of seven. A huge score for the current
:05:47. > :05:47.
:05:47. > :06:28.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:06:28. > :06:33.around nice and easy but how do you make the balance between squeezing
:06:33. > :06:39.in the double pike and baking the M landing. He almost put in too much
:06:39. > :06:45.rotation there. He did fabulously whelp not to sit that out. He pulls
:06:45. > :06:50.it in and he lambs with his hips behind his feet. Really had to
:06:50. > :06:54.react quickly to take those steps back. They will be costly but not
:06:54. > :07:03.as costly as the one hole mark he would have lost had he sat down.
:07:03. > :07:13.His chest he is down. About 0.8? Easily. But didn't he wrestle
:07:13. > :07:14.
:07:14. > :07:24.against it? The highest qualifier scores 16.187, with the two vaults.
:07:24. > :07:46.
:07:46. > :07:54.enough to know what he has to do. And that is enough to start with. A
:07:54. > :08:04.double pike with a start. Just mentally rehearsing this second
:08:04. > :08:14.
:08:14. > :08:20.vault. It is going to be a seven as land dead because he was coming
:08:20. > :08:30.down well. The judges will certainly not have any deductions
:08:30. > :08:33.
:08:34. > :08:43.for height or leather. -- the length. 16.333. Just a little bit
:08:44. > :09:02.
:09:03. > :09:07.down on the score of the Frenchman round. It almost looks like a side
:09:07. > :09:14.Somerset at -- side somersault at one point but then he got it round.
:09:14. > :09:21.He has got his own stamp on the technique. So he will rot -- not
:09:21. > :09:31.lose marks even though he turns? think what he will lose marks for
:09:31. > :09:41.
:09:41. > :09:49.rolls it round, almost as a sort of side somersault, and he will lose
:09:49. > :09:58.four that extension before he lambs. Mind boggling, that rotation. He
:09:58. > :10:08.has gone into the lead, with a score of 16.366! 0.179 ahead of the
:10:08. > :10:34.
:10:34. > :10:40.finals. I have just noticed this is Fabulous. The straight shape, three
:10:40. > :10:50.twists. Quite remarkable vaulting. And he is only about 18, isn't he?
:10:50. > :11:17.
:11:17. > :11:27.the angle out. Really tight. This any vault ever, 7.4? Yes,
:11:27. > :11:40.
:11:40. > :11:44.it. He is going for day seven. So far day seven is the easiest vault
:11:44. > :11:54.we have seen -- is the most difficult bowled we have seen but
:11:54. > :12:09.
:12:09. > :12:19.Surely he has done enough for gold. He changed the approach this time,
:12:19. > :12:34.
:12:34. > :12:40.which he has to do, but that same because he can twist both
:12:40. > :12:47.directions. He is great in both of them. Fabulous. Put your gold medal
:12:47. > :12:57.in your pocket now, young man! is in second. There is confirmation.
:12:57. > :13:07.
:13:07. > :13:17.Metropolitan arena. As Okiguchi is introduced. He is the second
:13:17. > :13:24.
:13:24. > :13:34.highest qualifier in this Wild vault as we have just seen. Not
:13:34. > :13:54.
:13:54. > :14:00.quite as clean, I don't think. Depends how the judges see it but
:14:00. > :14:04.just a little bit of a cross of the legs, especially in that last twist.
:14:04. > :14:14.Fantastic work, though. You are right, Mitch, the Bar has been
:14:14. > :14:31.
:14:31. > :14:41.on he needs to score another 16.187 to get into the medals and knock
:14:41. > :15:06.
:15:06. > :15:15.the world champion from last yet of somersault. It is good. Is it good
:15:15. > :15:21.enough? I do not think so. He took a pace to that Syed and the judging
:15:21. > :15:31.has been very good. -- he took a pace to decide. Plenty of attack. I
:15:31. > :15:57.
:15:57. > :16:07.follow the gymnast that did the same vault with an extra half twist.
:16:07. > :16:24.
:16:24. > :16:32.Whereas this is not commonplace, it position. There is your new world
:16:32. > :16:42.champion, Yang of Korea. What a performance from him. Confirmation
:16:42. > :16:42.
:16:42. > :16:49.of the men's vault final. We wondered how this would go, last
:16:49. > :16:59.year's world champion going first, he finished in 4th place. This was
:16:59. > :17:06.
:17:06. > :17:10.the hardest difficulty we have ever two female stars of this - Victoria
:17:10. > :17:18.Komova and Jordyn Wieber, and it is fair to say they have had a ding-
:17:18. > :17:28.dong battle so far. This is an absolute ruler. What a cracking
:17:28. > :17:35.
:17:35. > :17:41.see what Victoria Komova can do. She has won it, what a final this
:17:41. > :17:51.has been. That was impressive, beautifully done again. Just like
:17:51. > :17:51.
:17:51. > :18:01.that. Victoria Komova, gold at last. This is the start list for the
:18:01. > :18:19.
:18:19. > :18:25.championships. What can she do? qualification she was one of two
:18:25. > :18:32.gymnasts who had difficulty score of 6.4, the highest. This is one of
:18:32. > :18:38.the reasons why - watch this. That was enormously difficult. This is
:18:38. > :18:48.another very big series. She has to be dead in line for the straight
:18:48. > :19:05.
:19:05. > :19:14.back somersault, body beautiful it those two elements. She doesn't
:19:14. > :19:20.have to, but she gets a bonus if she does. She performed that well.
:19:20. > :19:27.It was a little wobbly in the previous competitions. You saw her
:19:27. > :19:31.head go right back, her foot touching their head. That is one of
:19:31. > :19:41.the most difficult elements. Now she just has to watch her feet come
:19:41. > :19:56.
:19:56. > :20:02.down to the beam, left up high, and in slow-motion. That was good
:20:02. > :20:07.strong work. Again, not the fluency, but very strong acrobatics.
:20:07. > :20:15.followed it up with some incredible stuff. Front somersault, very
:20:15. > :20:20.positive. Shoulders and hips square. This was a courageous routine. It
:20:20. > :20:29.went very well. A little bit of pace here, but that is what they
:20:29. > :20:39.have to beat. So she already has a bronze. Will she be able to hang on
:20:39. > :20:51.
:20:51. > :20:56.yesterday, the highest qualifier here. The pressure is on. I find
:20:56. > :21:06.this work amazing because she is so slight and elegant, and so powerful
:21:06. > :21:08.
:21:08. > :21:17.as well. Really precise, she holds the middle of her body so tight.
:21:17. > :21:27.And the standing Arabian, she really performed that well. She
:21:27. > :21:34.hits the splitter action so effortlessly. And moves with good
:21:34. > :21:40.speed. This is how you add up your bonuses. I don't think they will
:21:40. > :21:48.have given the jump from the free walk over. She is fighting a little
:21:48. > :21:55.bit now. This is important. The double spin, has to step forward...
:21:55. > :21:59.And she didn't. She had a little error in that before, and it
:22:00. > :22:04.obviously weighed on her mind a little bit. A very difficult
:22:04. > :22:14.element, right at the end of the routine. Really, very disappointing
:22:14. > :22:16.
:22:16. > :22:23.for her. The difficulty and the execution, will that be enough to
:22:23. > :22:30.keep her in the medals? I don't think so. I would be very surprised.
:22:30. > :22:35.One hallmark off when you fall. She won't have got the difficulty for
:22:35. > :22:39.some of these elements. This standing Arabian is really
:22:39. > :22:46.impressive. Just a little bit in the wrong direction with her knees
:22:46. > :22:55.and feet, but what about this. lost body shape. You have to stay
:22:55. > :23:05.tall, and she tried to look for the beam too early. To follow, set up
:23:05. > :23:07.
:23:07. > :23:14.the double with two flicks. It is a pity. 13.766. Who will be getting a
:23:14. > :23:21.medal on this piece of apparatus? Jordyn Wieber, such a commanding
:23:21. > :23:31.performance in the all-round to get the gold. This is quite a different
:23:31. > :23:47.
:23:47. > :23:55.style, very attacking and dynamic. going for every link. She can jump
:23:55. > :24:03.so well - she hovers in the air. Side somersault. Just fights a
:24:03. > :24:13.little bit. The single spin has to be included. It does not have to
:24:13. > :24:15.
:24:15. > :24:25.have the lead held up, but it does have to be included. -- the leg.
:24:25. > :24:27.
:24:27. > :24:32.The quarter turn difficult to land because you can't see the beam.
:24:32. > :24:42.Landing strongly, into a back flip. There have been a couple of wobbles,
:24:42. > :24:42.
:24:43. > :24:49.but such huge difficulty and precision of movement. One flip, or
:24:49. > :24:57.higher, two 1/2 twists and a very good landing. That was a very solid
:24:57. > :25:06.performance. Could that be gold number three? It will be tied.
:25:06. > :25:12.accurate, and the attack. That one- arm flick is always impressive.
:25:12. > :25:21.That, where she puts that towards the end of the routine, standing
:25:21. > :25:31.full twist. Keep your focus until the very end. What will the judges
:25:31. > :25:32.
:25:32. > :25:38.make of it? It will be close. not enough. 15.133 puts her in
:25:38. > :25:48.silver or medal position and not a flicker of emotion from Jordyn
:25:48. > :26:01.
:26:01. > :26:11.Jordyn Wieber? A quiet start. So strong and solid in that pike front
:26:11. > :26:12.
:26:12. > :26:17.somersault and that is where you say there was no doubting the link.
:26:17. > :26:27.That was one of the most difficult moves you will see, given one of
:26:27. > :26:29.
:26:29. > :26:38.the best ratings. She can leap as well, her head went back. The free
:26:38. > :26:43.walkover into the Pike back somersault. She knows that if she
:26:43. > :26:47.wants a medal she had to make every link. There is still more to come,
:26:47. > :26:57.she needs to keep concentrating. They have to do forwards, sideways
:26:57. > :27:06.and backwards elements. The difficult jump with the head right
:27:06. > :27:13.back, the gymnast lose sight of the beam. That was the first hesitation
:27:13. > :27:19.on the link. It has been a great performance so far. Can she match
:27:19. > :27:28.this with a great dismount? She can. Funny, that was the best routine of
:27:28. > :27:33.the day so far. I think she would agree. A fantastic mix of power,
:27:33. > :27:43.grace and elegance. She is a tiny little thing, but looks so
:27:43. > :27:45.
:27:45. > :27:53.classical on the beam. Look at this, and half turn. Really strong
:27:53. > :27:58.movement. That free walk over, straight into the back flip and
:27:58. > :28:01.Pike somersault. She shows really good variety of moves, and the
:28:01. > :28:11.final element, the double pike, we have seen a couple of steps from
:28:11. > :28:13.
:28:13. > :28:23.most gymnasts but not this time. She held firm, no deductions.
:28:23. > :28:33.
:28:33. > :28:41.was two Americans in the middle. Lu Sui tips the balance. She takes
:28:41. > :28:46.gold. On we go over to the parallel bars,
:28:46. > :28:56.where the home hero is in his 6th final, but can he make it three
:28:56. > :29:13.
:29:13. > :29:23.here is his name. We are looking at the finest all-round gymnast there
:29:23. > :29:54.
:29:54. > :30:01.took third place here last year. The second gymnast or pin this
:30:01. > :30:09.final. He always teeters around the medals, just outside in the world
:30:09. > :30:19.championships. 32 years of age now, the Greek. So lots of experience to
:30:19. > :30:52.
:30:52. > :30:59.well of the bars. That was a real no-nonsense performance. He set the
:30:59. > :31:04.world alight. He has some really original stuff. He is a long lad so
:31:04. > :31:09.it looks really good when he is swinging. At a 32 years of age he
:31:09. > :31:19.has piled in the experience. Lovely technique on the under SMA and this
:31:19. > :31:31.
:31:31. > :31:38.challenge for him. Where did he qualify? Eighth, believe it or not.
:31:38. > :31:45.15.533. Strong bars routine. Some good work is to come. Look at the
:31:45. > :31:55.execution score, 9.033! The current world champion on this piece of
:31:55. > :32:27.
:32:27. > :32:37.vertical when he hit. The full term, did he make that one up? -- full
:32:37. > :32:57.
:32:57. > :33:04.turn. If he did so he thought very on a double pike. Have a look at
:33:04. > :33:12.his face. What about that? Zipping around like a Catherine wheel and
:33:12. > :33:20.then he produced a brand new move! He did a fall of turn. He was off-
:33:20. > :33:24.beam and he took an extra turn. He did think very, very quickly.
:33:24. > :33:33.at that. He has done a full somersault BAe the time he gets to
:33:33. > :33:36.the top. -- By the time. So often, the legs are a little bit apart.
:33:36. > :33:46.This is the innovation you were talking about, Mitch. I am sure
:33:46. > :33:49.
:33:49. > :33:57.chat about it as he came off, in case anyone thought it was
:33:57. > :34:03.unplanned. It has been given a difficulty of 6.6, so he is down by
:34:04. > :34:13.0.2. He's caused 15.2, and the world champion is in a third. -- he
:34:14. > :34:14.
:34:14. > :34:57.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:34:57. > :35:02.fabulous performance. In deed. Look at the fire in his belly! He did
:35:02. > :35:09.not qualify for the high bar final but he was swinging their with just
:35:09. > :35:19.as much flamboyance. Step dad. -- as always. That was swing from
:35:19. > :35:29.
:35:29. > :35:35.start to finish. It was great to swinging and doing pirouettes,
:35:35. > :35:40.hitting the handstands. He did not hit the high bar final but he has
:35:40. > :35:44.treated us to hide our work because this is amazing stuff. He really
:35:44. > :35:54.should get a stack of credit for this. He has got to be in front
:35:54. > :36:03.
:36:03. > :36:11.because that was amazing. He had a bad bounces around with as much
:36:11. > :36:21.excitement event with the tenor roles in the gym that he wrens. Us
:36:21. > :36:21.
:36:21. > :37:09.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:37:10. > :37:19.qualification. This guy knows how he tried to punch the air but he
:37:20. > :37:20.
:37:20. > :37:27.was punching the DEC really because he was bending down. He's quite a
:37:27. > :37:37.tall gymnast with a lovely line. The opening front somersault,
:37:37. > :37:49.
:37:49. > :37:55.landed upright and then he went back down. Such a shame. He needs
:37:55. > :38:05.over 15.5333 to get up into the top three. He has done it! It gives him
:38:05. > :38:05.
:38:05. > :38:15.joint silver. Clare had a Uchimora -- Kohei Uchimura has had the
:38:15. > :38:15.
:38:15. > :39:05.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:39:05. > :39:11.privilege of watching the bars with that landing. Just a pity he
:39:12. > :39:16.just got a softness in the back. Pretty philosophical about it.
:39:16. > :39:21.have seen him up his difficulty from the all-around so, Kris, you
:39:21. > :39:27.make the point, didn't you, that he must be working on more difficult
:39:27. > :39:32.stuff, and we have seen it in every individual apparatus final? Yes,
:39:32. > :39:38.every final he has gone for a bit more difficult to, which has made
:39:38. > :39:48.him make a few little arrows. You just sort just a slight loss of but
:39:48. > :39:57.
:39:57. > :40:04.it will not be a huge reduction. -- longs better. Oh! It is fourth.
:40:04. > :40:14.Execution of nine but a score of 15.5. But there is the new parallel
:40:14. > :40:21.
:40:21. > :40:26.bar world champion, Danell Leyva up absolute master of the bars. He
:40:26. > :40:31.went all out for difficulty and it proved the right decision. He gets
:40:31. > :40:37.the gold medal, ahead of the Greek who at last makes the grade in the
:40:37. > :40:45.top three at the World Championship, alongside Chenglong, baked high for
:40:45. > :40:49.The last of the women's apparatus finals, the floor. The British team
:40:49. > :40:59.love to shop. Earlier I caught up with Beth for a bit of retail
:40:59. > :41:05.
:41:05. > :41:09.We were just saying it is your Knight World Championships. Yes, I
:41:09. > :41:12.did my first in 2001 and then they changed the rules from doing it
:41:12. > :41:17.every two years to doing it every year so I have done it every year
:41:17. > :41:22.except for Olympic years. And how does a Japan affair to the others?
:41:22. > :41:26.It has been difficult -- different in the competition but also just
:41:26. > :41:32.the whole culture. There are some very bizarre things in this street.
:41:32. > :41:36.Plastic food. None of this food is real. That is all plastic.
:41:36. > :41:45.haven't had much chance to go and look at all of this. My parents
:41:45. > :41:49.have said that every time they go plastic meal and then hope it comes
:41:49. > :41:54.out nicer. Your mother and father follow you all over the world?
:41:54. > :41:57.there have been to every competition apart from five or six
:41:57. > :42:01.over my whole career. And everyone who is on the team kind of gets
:42:01. > :42:08.adopted as their child for the week. So can you go to ten World
:42:08. > :42:12.Championships? No, this will be my last one. Ten to 12 is the main
:42:12. > :42:20.goal, to keep going. Maybe after the Olympics I will do some
:42:20. > :42:25.appearance displays and things but not on the world circuit. Back in
:42:25. > :42:31.2009, you missed floors and you got bar. Now you have missed bars, what
:42:31. > :42:34.does that mean for floor? Well, there is totally node championship
:42:34. > :42:40.-- pressure on me for this championship. The point was the
:42:40. > :42:45.team are. To be honest, I am just going to go out there and enjoy it.
:42:45. > :42:50.Go out on a high. Yes. What does the future hold for you? What would
:42:50. > :42:54.you do with yourself? There are a lot of different options and I will
:42:54. > :42:59.have to see what comes my way when I come to the end of my career. I
:42:59. > :43:05.will definitely not walk away from gymnastics. But how I will stay
:43:05. > :43:11.involved is still yet to be decided. But more of a relaxing lifestyle?
:43:11. > :43:15.hope so. Just a training schedule... Yes, I will suddenly have an extra
:43:15. > :43:20.30 hours a week in my life and to be honest I do not know what I will
:43:20. > :43:24.do with myself. To suddenly have all these extra time for the first
:43:24. > :43:34.few months, I will have to start tapering down my training, not just
:43:34. > :43:36.
:43:36. > :43:40.stop. Why you're OK for socks? can get every cartoon character!
:43:40. > :43:46.You could get a pink skull and crossbones. You could put that on
:43:46. > :43:52.your leotard. I am glad you do not choose our leotards! We have got to
:43:52. > :44:02.get those. I might actually get Mitch Fenner or a pair of those for
:44:02. > :44:22.
:44:22. > :44:32.Well, three replacements are now world champion, Chelaru, and the
:44:32. > :44:32.
:44:32. > :45:58.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:45:58. > :46:07.quarter turn. Lots of energy in this routine. Huge double pike,
:46:07. > :46:16.that has been the best landing so far.
:46:16. > :46:23.You just saw her get a Brahms on beam and that was her bid for
:46:24. > :46:33.another medal. No big deductions on landing, but the rest will have to
:46:34. > :46:34.
:46:34. > :46:44.do not put a foot wrong to beat her. Plenty of power on show. 1 1/2
:46:44. > :46:51.
:46:51. > :47:01.twists, emphatic walkout, into the trouble. -- triple. You can never
:47:01. > :47:04.
:47:04. > :47:09.fold the attack and the aggression. This was her third apparatus final
:47:09. > :47:19.at these world championships, can she get another medal? The current
:47:19. > :47:23.
:47:23. > :47:27.world champion, Lauren Mitchell. She was a reserve. She is expected
:47:27. > :47:33.to have the highest difficulty level, but it is important she
:47:33. > :47:38.links these just like that. The double Arabian, jumped straight out
:47:38. > :47:48.of it so no landing deductions. Straight back for another huge
:47:48. > :47:56.
:47:56. > :48:06.tumble, but she doesn't get the jump that time. Super spin. Just a
:48:06. > :48:13.
:48:13. > :48:21.tiny bit lacking split on the leap. The gymnasts ad eight elements for
:48:21. > :48:29.their difficulty total. Five of them acrobatic, like that. Three of
:48:29. > :48:39.them will be leaps or jumps, like these. Oh and that was a big
:48:39. > :48:46.
:48:46. > :48:51.mistake. That was a potential 0.5 deduction. Beautiful soft arms. She
:48:51. > :48:59.is clever, she added the lead series at the end. That is what
:48:59. > :49:06.experience does for you. A another clever exit. Indeed! You have to
:49:06. > :49:10.include a series of two leaps, one showing split. She mocked up the
:49:10. > :49:18.first series, and she was clever enough to think I will put it in
:49:18. > :49:24.right at the end. This spin is something. Yes, a cracking turn and
:49:24. > :49:34.the gymnastic elements are very good as well. The double pike, and
:49:34. > :50:04.
:50:04. > :50:14.that time she did during the spring floor performance in the all round,
:50:14. > :50:26.
:50:26. > :50:36.let's see if she can do it again. A joined it together seamlessly. She
:50:36. > :50:39.
:50:39. > :50:48.just about kept a vertical line in that very difficult spin. Locked
:50:48. > :50:58.swords personality showing through here. Taking a leaf out of
:50:58. > :51:00.
:51:00. > :51:10.Mitchell's book and putting leaps on the end to add more difficulty.
:51:10. > :51:14.
:51:14. > :51:24.She is at home on those leaps. Time for a quick focus. Lofty on the
:51:24. > :51:30.double pike, very confident. Once again, she really does project and
:51:30. > :51:40.sell it. She had a third in the all-round, second on beam, can she
:51:40. > :51:42.
:51:42. > :51:50.go one better? Lovely difficult tumbling, the double straight. That
:51:50. > :51:58.is just one tumble. Worth 0.5. The girls who put two difficult tumbles
:51:58. > :52:03.will probably have a series worth 0.7, 0.8 as their open-air. That is
:52:03. > :52:13.where she has struggled a little bit before. She qualified with the
:52:13. > :52:24.
:52:24. > :52:34.4th highest score, but she has gone Raisman. Could this be her last
:52:34. > :52:39.
:52:39. > :52:45.opportunity for a medal? Wow, that was some tumble. Three elements.
:52:45. > :52:55.And now back with another huge tumble. Double Arabian pike, well
:52:55. > :52:55.
:52:55. > :53:55.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:53:55. > :54:03.final tumble, just a tiny skip. has posted a 14.9 on the floor here.
:54:03. > :54:12.This got to beat, 14.866. It is going to be close. Very close
:54:12. > :54:17.indeed. It was very clean. She is not the most graceful of gymnasts
:54:17. > :54:27.but this is so impressive. It is an impressive combination, and then
:54:27. > :54:28.
:54:28. > :54:37.she sticks a front somersault on the end - fabulous. This, the
:54:37. > :54:47.double pike Arabian. Brings her feet down securely. The step will
:54:47. > :54:55.be a deduction, but she was clean here. Her feet were well round.
:54:55. > :55:05.has gone into the lead with a score of 15. 6.1 for difficulty, not many
:55:05. > :55:26.
:55:26. > :55:35.points lost for execution either. carrying forward her elegance and
:55:35. > :55:43.presence on the beam onto the floor. She should be in home territory
:55:43. > :55:53.here, in terms of dance and the gymnastic elements. Lovely, four
:55:53. > :56:07.
:56:07. > :56:17.twist in each direction. Beautiful to watch. Accurate and attractively
:56:17. > :56:28.
:56:28. > :56:34.tumbling has gone well so far but she can't afford to break
:56:34. > :56:39.concentration. Up goes the double pike and a tiny adjustment. Super
:56:39. > :56:45.to watch, absolutely delightful once again. China really are good
:56:45. > :56:50.now on the beam and the floor. have enjoyed that the most of all
:56:50. > :57:00.the routines we have seen. What a super performance from the 19 year-
:57:00. > :57:06.
:57:06. > :57:11.elements come from the dance section. She has this wonderful
:57:11. > :57:21.country pulls in, which scores highly, and then another double
:57:21. > :57:22.
:57:23. > :57:30.spin with her leg held up. More difficulty in the dance element.
:57:30. > :57:40.She has gone into the lead! That gold medal will go nicely with the
:57:40. > :57:40.
:57:40. > :57:49.one she has just won on beam, but can she hang on to it? Beth Tweddle,
:57:49. > :57:56.going for her six World Championships medal. She has got to
:57:56. > :58:06.present this outstandingly. The 1 1/2, the walkout, into the strong
:58:06. > :58:14.
:58:14. > :58:24.her face. The big strong double pike Arabian, and the little jump
:58:24. > :58:24.
:58:24. > :59:09.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:59:09. > :59:17.tumbling series for the end. Lovely full twisting front somersault and
:59:17. > :59:25.the super landing. Super Challenge. What a way to end your world
:59:25. > :59:32.championships. Her only final, she needs has got over 14.866. It is to
:59:32. > :59:42.be aghast. Did not hold back, and these tumbles, when she does them
:59:42. > :59:42.
:59:42. > :59:49.they are so impressive. Into the double tuck. Double pike, pulling
:59:49. > :59:55.hard. It is a long way round from the Arabian approach. Nicely
:59:55. > :00:01.anticipated the landing. Made the leap, and almost went over the
:00:01. > :00:11.barrier but she did so well to keep it under control. I thought she did
:00:11. > :00:16.
:00:16. > :00:26.a grand job, and look at this for a well be the last score she ever
:00:26. > :00:26.
:00:26. > :01:45.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:01:45. > :01:52.receives at a World Championships. selling the routine well. She has
:01:52. > :02:02.had very clean landings. The last one, very secure as well. This is a
:02:02. > :02:02.
:02:03. > :02:07.beautiful floor routine to finish the women's championship. This file
:02:07. > :02:17.has been a story of replacements. I thought she grasped the opportunity
:02:17. > :02:29.
:02:29. > :02:35.with both hands. Very nicely done. best until last! Afanaseva was
:02:35. > :02:42.shocked when she saw the scoreboard, 15.133. The reserve takes the lead.
:02:42. > :02:52.There is confirmation that the reserve takes gold. Afanaseva, and
:02:52. > :02:55.
:02:55. > :03:02.it was a story of execution over If this is your last World
:03:02. > :03:08.Championships, is it a sour note or is it something to drive you on to
:03:08. > :03:15.2012? A low, because the goal was qualification for the team. -- no.
:03:15. > :03:18.I am starting to get used to read now that I am going home but I am
:03:18. > :03:24.pleased to get out, walk away from these championships, we have the
:03:24. > :03:29.team qualified and I can walk towards 2012 now. Was the score a
:03:29. > :03:34.fair reflection? Yes. I did step out a bit, any a bit, my big toe
:03:34. > :03:44.was a bit over. And I did have a big step on the first tumble. So
:03:44. > :03:48.
:03:48. > :03:58.British gymnastics, and she can leave with her head held high.
:03:58. > :04:06.
:04:06. > :04:16.So, on to the hive off. Uchimura being prepared. I know that I can
:04:16. > :04:16.
:04:16. > :04:24.do it higher than 16. I thought, all or nothing. And I have nothing
:04:24. > :04:33.to lose. Look at that fantastic body shape! I have to fight. It was
:04:33. > :04:39.a perfect fight for made. He really is giving it a maximum.
:04:39. > :04:48.dismount, everything was perfect. Just like that! That really is a
:04:48. > :04:53.challenge! Well done, Philipp boy! What can you do to get past
:04:53. > :05:03.Uchimura and get a gold medal next year? At the moment, I can do
:05:03. > :05:06.
:05:06. > :05:12.day I think, one day I have to beat Kohei Uchimura. At the moment it is
:05:12. > :05:14.a dream. One thing was real enough. Not
:05:14. > :05:24.everyone has banned the Hyde Park plain sailing at these
:05:24. > :05:30.
:05:30. > :05:36.championships. -- not everyone has move. What is going on in the
:05:36. > :05:45.arena? He is going to sit there and think about it and that could be it.
:05:45. > :05:52.Oh, wow! He is human after all. Right, hold on to your hats and
:05:52. > :05:58.recorded. It is time for high bar. What a line-up. Uchimura will wrap
:05:58. > :06:08.up the competition, as well. We will start with an absolute duty as
:06:08. > :06:08.
:06:08. > :07:06.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:07:06. > :07:16.board to get some interesting to the mat but that has. The
:07:16. > :07:16.
:07:16. > :07:21.gauntlet right down because he has not gone wrong one iota. That is
:07:21. > :07:24.very much the challenge when you are the first gymnast up. You do
:07:24. > :07:30.not know what everyone else is going to do so you have to go for
:07:30. > :07:35.broke, and he did just that. Just a couple of tiny adjustments but the
:07:35. > :07:40.releases were fabulous. Caught at arm's length. Is this the one when
:07:40. > :07:46.he just had to... Yes, just a little adjustment but that will not
:07:46. > :07:56.be a massive adjustment -- deduction. A lovely lift into the
:07:56. > :07:58.
:07:58. > :08:08.elements. A super dismount. 0.3 for the harp, Mitch! -- 0.3 for the hop,
:08:08. > :08:11.
:08:11. > :08:18.Mitch? I would say so. 16.233, difficulties 7.5. It is big. The
:08:18. > :08:28.current European Hyde Park champion backed himself a silver at last
:08:28. > :08:32.year's World Championships. -- European high a bar champion.
:08:32. > :08:42.should go for what he is trained, a 7.8 difficulty. That in itself
:08:42. > :08:43.
:08:43. > :09:24.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:09:24. > :09:29.would be a work record performance going for broke now. My hat is off
:09:29. > :09:35.to you, young man. I know what went into that routine. He gave it the
:09:35. > :09:41.maximum. What a guy! What a performance. Mitch, what have you
:09:41. > :09:45.been doing with him in the training gym? Well, not enough, obviously,
:09:45. > :09:49.because if I had done the job right, he would be standing up from that,
:09:49. > :09:54.but he has done so much work on his style and this is a combination
:09:54. > :10:01.that is just amazing. A full twist in the straight and then what does
:10:01. > :10:07.he do, Christine? Well, he did all that fantastic work. There is the
:10:07. > :10:11.straight, into the dark. Maximum bonus when you link these together.
:10:11. > :10:16.-- into the tub. But it was the relatively straightforward move
:10:16. > :10:21.that he got caught out on and that often happens when you are putting
:10:21. > :10:31.in extreme difficulty. You relax a bit and something catches you out.
:10:31. > :10:34.what went into that and all the training. We did not think that
:10:34. > :10:39.move would be the problem. We thought the Gaylord would be the
:10:39. > :10:44.problem but he did that be divided. He was set up for a medal but there
:10:44. > :10:54.you go, that is what the sport is all about. Well, he's into second
:10:54. > :10:54.
:10:54. > :12:03.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:12:03. > :12:08.Fast hands and a different style of routine. Lots of twisting and
:12:08. > :12:14.turning. He has put in those releases. On top of the twists. A
:12:14. > :12:22.bit controversial, when he won the Olympics. But this is good as well.
:12:22. > :12:29.Fabulous style in the releases. Over the bar. It is the front
:12:29. > :12:34.somersault that I really liked. With the full twist. Absolutely
:12:34. > :12:41.fantastic. Very unusual. You do not see many of those and they are one
:12:41. > :12:49.of the most difficult releases you will see. Strong dismount. The
:12:49. > :12:57.landing was deep, wasn't it? But he held his feet and recovered well.
:12:57. > :13:02.It has got to be a 7.5, I would think. He has done a 7.7 and I
:13:02. > :13:12.cannot see too much difference in the routine. 7.7. He has gone into
:13:12. > :13:14.
:13:14. > :13:24.the lead, 16.441. Some 0.7. -- 7.7. This final certainly is not over
:13:24. > :13:24.
:13:24. > :14:17.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:14:17. > :14:25.yet. Welcome to the current high pressure. He chose his focus and
:14:25. > :14:31.determination to get them at the medals. Great stuff. Beta NT two
:14:31. > :14:39.year-old -- the 22-year-old did not disappoint us but this will be a
:14:39. > :14:45.story of difficulty. Two such different gymnasts from China, here.
:14:45. > :14:55.One is a tall gymnast, lovely style, lovely line. And he was very late
:14:55. > :15:10.
:15:10. > :15:16.with fads grit correct. -- with for the bar, into the straight
:15:16. > :15:26.somersault. Really lots of variety to his work at the same technique
:15:26. > :15:27.
:15:27. > :15:37.on landing. Absolutely is secured. Soap Suu Kyi has 16.441. Can he
:15:37. > :15:38.
:15:38. > :15:48.hang on in the lead? He can! 16.366 for his team-mate, Chenglong sang.
:15:48. > :15:56.
:15:56. > :16:01.So Chenglong is in second at the mate? It was his high bar routine
:16:01. > :16:10.that put him into the medals for the call round. This will be
:16:10. > :16:20.impressive. He has proved he can do it under pressure. It is very
:16:20. > :16:36.
:16:36. > :16:41.Oh, and who is off. There is no way he could survive that one. A little
:16:42. > :16:47.enigmatic smile. He said even I am not going to try to hold on to that.
:16:47. > :16:51.He missed completely with his right hand. What a shame for him. The
:16:51. > :17:01.high bar was the key to the medals for hemmed in the all-round
:17:01. > :17:34.
:17:34. > :17:39.can't come back from this. It is but he is a great on high bar. We
:17:39. > :17:49.saw that in the other round. It was not to be today. Ultimate respect
:17:49. > :17:53.from the crowd. He had a go, that's the spirit. A really gritty gymnast.
:17:53. > :18:00.Hit this routine so well in the all-round competition when it meant
:18:00. > :18:06.the silver medal. But he was edgy right from the beginning. These
:18:06. > :18:12.releases court a little bit close. Then, as he came out, he didn't get
:18:12. > :18:19.the hand on, he didn't get the fingers over, and it was self
:18:19. > :18:24.preservation from then on in, I think. Lovely dismount. He will
:18:24. > :18:34.walk away from these championships happy with his silver all round
:18:34. > :18:40.
:18:40. > :18:45.medal. Philip boy, 14.3. Hasn't it worked out beautifully that this
:18:45. > :18:55.man closes the world championships here in Tokyo. In the world of
:18:55. > :18:57.
:18:57. > :19:02.gymnastics, this man is an absolute superstar. Kohei Uchimura, what
:19:02. > :19:09.have you got for us? The final routine at this year's world
:19:09. > :19:17.championships. Lovely extension just to get him going. Puts the
:19:17. > :19:27.full twist in, and it was absolutely immaculate. Legs apart
:19:27. > :19:28.
:19:28. > :19:33.slightly. Lovely, jam half. Nice and strong in the swing. He has
:19:33. > :19:43.already increased his difficulty from qualifying. Here is the
:19:43. > :19:43.
:19:43. > :19:53.combination, keeps it going. Another big one. There it is. Sue
:19:53. > :19:59.
:19:59. > :20:05.Perth. Keeping this swing. What an incredible way to close these
:20:05. > :20:09.championships. This man is phenomenal. He is a genius, he
:20:09. > :20:18.really is. He knows how to give people what they want at just the
:20:18. > :20:25.right time. He brings the apparatus finals to a close in the style only
:20:25. > :20:30.he has. All these difficult skills, we have seen all the gymnasts do
:20:30. > :20:40.them but only he does them without deduction and that is what sets him
:20:40. > :20:43.
:20:43. > :20:52.apart from the rest of the world. His difficulty was the 6.7. Style,
:20:52. > :20:59.flares and the arms out. This is what makes him so special. Yes, he
:20:59. > :21:04.says! Look at his smile. Can the crowd applaud him one more time
:21:04. > :21:14.from the medals podium? Let's hope so. Everybody waiting, everybody
:21:14. > :21:43.
:21:43. > :21:53.wondering. He has got himself a bronze medal. Thant I've the one...
:21:53. > :21:55.
:21:55. > :22:05.Zou Kai, literally hands-on for gold. He knocks his team-mate off
:22:05. > :22:10.
:22:10. > :22:15.the top spot, the world number one ranking. Chenglong, he will settle
:22:15. > :22:24.for silver. Can you imagine doing a performance like that in front of
:22:24. > :22:31.your home crowd?! The results of the final. The Olympic champion
:22:31. > :22:37.becomes world champion. The former world champion takes silver. Kohei
:22:37. > :22:41.Uchimura gets a bronze medal to go with his two golds and the silver.
:22:41. > :22:47.As the closing ceremony begins, I feel quite sad it is all over
:22:47. > :22:52.because it has been so entertaining. Unbelievable. We have seen a new
:22:52. > :22:59.style and approach to the apparatus. The highlight for me was the
:22:59. > :23:05.parallel bar. This huge difficulty on the men's side, it was fabulous
:23:06. > :23:10.to watch. The men's vault was unbelievable, wasn't it? Yes, they
:23:10. > :23:18.are really getting to grips with that platform and it rockets them
:23:18. > :23:24.into the air. Is that how it felt for you, Beth? You will probably be
:23:24. > :23:28.back, won't you? Never say never, but my ultimate goal is 2012. There
:23:29. > :23:34.has been a lot of disappointment but also a lot of success so there
:23:34. > :23:37.has been some surprise champions and surprise medalists. Some people
:23:38. > :23:44.will go away disappointed, some people will go away happy. How did
:23:44. > :23:49.it feel out there? A really enjoyed it. I wasn't expecting to get a
:23:49. > :23:54.medal today. I had to land everything perfectly, which a lot
:23:54. > :24:01.of the others did. A lot of people have asked me if I will be here
:24:01. > :24:07.next year, but when you look at the scores I was only six tents behind.
:24:07. > :24:12.I have just got to work on the landings. This year they have
:24:12. > :24:16.handed in on the landings, whereas previously they have looked at
:24:16. > :24:21.leaps and jumps. I have improved them, now they have gone on to
:24:21. > :24:26.something else. It is something else to work on for 2012. The maybe
:24:27. > :24:36.not as many medals as predicted for Great Britain at these world
:24:36. > :24:42.championships? It looks pretty good. If you look at Louis Smith's bronze
:24:42. > :24:46.medal, true grit. The women's team performance was amazing. Very
:24:46. > :24:53.positive for Great Britain. goals will be feeling very positive
:24:53. > :24:56.going back into the gym? I think so, and it was not a surprise, we
:24:56. > :25:05.really are the 5th best in the world. We should be chasing that
:25:05. > :25:10.4th spot. There is more sport for you on BBC Two at 10pm tonight, and
:25:10. > :25:16.we will bring you all of the news from the test event for the men.
