Well, here we are for the final time for us. If this is your first | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
time, this show gives you everything Olympic you could | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
possibly need in 45 minutes. Tonight we have something of a | :00:34. | :00:41. | |
feast at to labour for you. It is 5,000 Fahrenheit! Mo Farah raises | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
the temperature in the stadium as we see another Super Saturday. | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
More goals for Great Britain, one in the ring and one on the water. | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
And madness in the modern Pentathlon. It is all coming up in | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
the global round-up. We have also had a really to | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
remember for you and Tom Daley, too. So another packed programme in the | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
last of these Olympic Games, but please don't get sad. You still | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
have 45 minutes to get your questions and comments in. Send | :01:11. | :01:18. | |
them to us on Twitter. Where do we start? It is obvious. | :01:18. | :01:28. | |
:01:28. | :01:32. | ||
The 5,000 metres. Could Mo Farah first Briton to win the title of | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
10,000 metres. He is running magnificently now. The crowd on | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
lifting him, they are cheering him on! Has he got enough? Mo Farah has | :01:42. | :01:50. | |
got gold! It is going to be a glorious, glorious win! Mo Farah | :01:50. | :02:00. | |
:02:00. | :02:00. | ||
for Great Britain. It is gold! Oh, yes! Oh, yes! The stadium erupts! | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
Mo Farah took on the Africans, showed them how to do it. | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
Unbelievable! Farah admitted winning the race had taken plenty | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
out of him. Only six had ever won both at the Games. Did he have | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
enough in the tank to join that illustrious group? | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
Next time he commits it has got to be for real. No second chances here. | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
He wants to hold that position. Exactly, and that is what he | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
normally does. He is just sensing that the best way to hold the | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
position is to get to the front. This is not the big kick, it is | :02:41. | :02:49. | |
positioning. It is Briton himself in a place -- pool himself into | :02:49. | :02:56. | |
place. Another pressure will start to be applied. -- and now the | :02:56. | :03:05. | |
pressure. Lagat is close. And now he says, right, mate, new and died. | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
Words have been exchanged. -- you and me. He is coming into the home | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
straight and he has got to be very careful not to let anybody get | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
ahead of him. He is doing it right, holding position on the inside. | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
They are queuing up around him. It is going to be a fierce last lap. | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
He is running himself into medal position. He is running perfectly | :03:29. | :03:39. | |
:03:39. | :03:39. | ||
well and he has got a chance now. Four athletes on his shoulder. | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
dangers 1,500 metre man is in third. Dejen Gebremeskel takes the inside | :03:44. | :03:51. | |
route. Farah holding the inside curve. The crowd on their feet! | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
They are trying to roar him on! It looks dangerous to me, the man in | :03:57. | :04:05. | |
third. The arms have got to come, the knees have got to come up high. | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
He has got to find something extra! I think he is going to get this! | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
Farah is going to make it two gold medals for Great Britain! | :04:15. | :04:25. | |
:04:25. | :04:30. | ||
Beautiful! The place erupts! He's Unbelievable. A loss of confidence | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
going into the race. But I have to say, I felt tired. -- a lot of | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
confidence. They helped me a lot so it was pretty good. When you hit | :04:41. | :04:47. | |
the front, there was no way anybody was going to come past? Yes, the | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
American tried but I knew I had to hang onto it. I just want to thank | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
everybody who supported me. All my coaches in previous years, those | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
who have been a part of my life. I cannot think everyone enough. It | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
has been a long journey, grafting and grafting. But anything is | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
possible. It is just hard work and grafting. | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
Twitter continues to go mad for Mo Farah! But rightly so. It was an | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
epic night in the stadium and it must have felt very special? If you | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
rewind 3,000 years to the ancient Olympics, Aristotle, Sophocles, | :05:26. | :05:35. | |
Plato, they would write a crow about those occasions of 30, 40,000 | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
people cheering. But today in the stand with 80,000 other people, I | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
got so caught up in it. Often journalists are quite low-key and | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
they think, we are not supposed to be celebrating, we are supposed to | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
be writing about it. We were all up and shouting ourselves horse. It | :05:55. | :06:03. | |
was such a powerful, collective and emotional moment. Lots of people | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
asking, what was he doing in the semi-final? Was he genuinely tired? | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
Was he trying to outfox them? Whatever he did was brilliant and | :06:12. | :06:19. | |
his tactics tonight, super. It was wonderfully constructed as a race. | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
If there was a deliberate tactical ploy to lull his competitors into a | :06:24. | :06:31. | |
false sense of security, we can add that Machiavellian slant to his | :06:31. | :06:41. | |
:06:41. | :06:41. | ||
tricks. Apparently, this takes it out of the legs of the distance | :06:41. | :06:47. | |
runners but to have done it on home soil with the pressure he has faced. | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
It was just so wonderful and so emotional. His last few words to | :06:52. | :06:58. | |
fill Jones in the interview were, it is all about hard work and graft. | :06:58. | :07:06. | |
-- to Phil Jones. And that is from an average athlete to came to the | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
Games who is now on top of the world. He took such a gamble to go | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
to the United States to put extra miles on the road. That is a | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
tremendous part of his narrative. And something else I might say, if | :07:18. | :07:26. | |
I may, if you are wind one year, and to something threatening to | :07:26. | :07:36. | |
:07:36. | :07:38. | ||
destroy our cities, multicultural are t -- at multiculturalism can be | :07:38. | :07:45. | |
tricky. But now 80,000 people were cheering him. I am not saying one | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
athletics victory can solve the problems of a nation but I thought | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
this was a really profound national moment. Yes. And he said he was so | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
proud to run for Great Britain even though he is from Somalia. A | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
fantastic flag-bearer. The other highlight on the track | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
was the men's sprint relay. A tussle between America and Jamaica. | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
A fraction of a second between them in their qualifying times but Bolt | :08:10. | :08:20. | |
:08:20. | :08:24. | ||
was back for Jamaica. Would he give chased. But not being chased hard. | :08:24. | :08:34. | |
:08:34. | :08:36. | ||
He has had a good first leg here. The war changes are good. -- the | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
baton. Blake is right on the Americans, between these two. Bolt | :08:41. | :08:47. | |
is going into the lead and you know what that means! Here egos! He has | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
got no chance. Jamaica are the gold medallists again and it is a new | :08:53. | :09:01. | |
world record! He smashes it into pieces. He two great teams but only | :09:01. | :09:11. | |
It is a beautiful thing to end on this note, so for me it is a | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
wonderful feeling to end on a high note. The team came out and they | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
gave it their all. I knew it was possible. Which we could have gone | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
faster but I guess we leave room for improvement! Obviously people | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
love you and the sport needs you. BEUC yourself going for another | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
four years and trying for the triple? -- do you see yourself? | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
am sure there will be a lot more young cats coming up, so for me it | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
is just wonderful. One step at a time and we will see, the next four | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
years. So many Jamaican fans have come here. We have seen you give | :09:51. | :10:01. | |
:10:01. | :10:03. | ||
the Mobot. Hang on... Yeah, boys! Ha-ha! You cannot not like the man! | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
He has a high opinion of himself but rightly so. There really is a | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
joy to watch and it was done so well tonight, with the Americans | :10:14. | :10:21. | |
just behind. -- he is a joy to watch. Yes. Blake on the bend and | :10:21. | :10:29. | |
when Bolt got it and was away. Beautifully called by Steve Cram. | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
When you think about the pressure, the moment they have to deliver. | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
For him to not only look relaxed but to be relaxed. I saw him | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
gesticulating before he went out and the cameras were not on him. He | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
was having a bit of a joke with the audience. How does somebody have | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
the mind set to do that when he is under that pressure? I think there | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
is an authenticity about him that is so engaging and even if you look | :10:53. | :11:00. | |
at the results, for me now, just behind Jesse Owens he has to be the | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
best track runner. When you talk about four years down the line, he | :11:05. | :11:13. | |
says, yes, a one to do the long job. -- I want to do. But one thing is | :11:13. | :11:21. | |
for sure, athletics needs Usain Bolt. And absolutely. It was | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
struggling after a litany of drugs scandals. Is dotted with Ben | :11:25. | :11:34. | |
Johnson and then all sorts of other heroes. -- it started. He and its | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
future are inextricably linked to go the. | :11:38. | :11:45. | |
Let's ground up the other events. Caster Semenya was in a shake-up | :11:45. | :11:50. | |
for the medals but she made her move far too late while Mariya | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
Savinova timed it perfectly and took the gold. Making her burst in | :11:55. | :12:04. | |
the last 100 metres, she made it home well clear of the chasing pack. | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
Another Russian, Ekaterina Poistogova, won the bronze, with | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
Semenya in silver. The women's Quartet in the relay | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
were anchored by Sanya Richards- Ross. They destroyed the field and | :12:18. | :12:25. | |
won by a huge margin. Great Britain with Ohuruogu in the final leg | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
finished 5th. The Russian won gold in the women's | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
high jump. This was her winning league. United States took the | :12:36. | :12:46. | |
:12:46. | :12:47. | ||
silver. And the men's javelin. This man | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
only qualified in sick. He was competing as a junior recently, | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
Keshorn Walcott. He took the gold ahead off Oleksandr Pyatnytsya of | :12:56. | :13:05. | |
Ukraine. Antti Ruuskanen claimed The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
have been all over the Olympics. I was sent an e-mail saying that some | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
bookies are offering odds that at least one of their children will be | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
called global round-up. I know it sounds mad but such is the | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
popularity of this part of the show. It is the last one we will do, it | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
is the biggest one we have done, it is the global round-up. | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
Fencing, swimming, riding, then shooting and running at the same | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
time. Modern pentathlon, part Olympic sport, part Olympic movie. | :13:35. | :13:43. | |
The creator of the modern Olympics intended it to replicate a soldier | :13:43. | :13:49. | |
behind enemy lines. It is fair to say that this man doesn't use his | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
fencing skills at work any more. He followed that up with a dashing | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
display of horsemanship. Riders have just 20 minutes to bond with | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
their horses before hand. This South Korean had a certain lack of | :14:02. | :14:08. | |
chemistry with his. Both horse and rider were OK, but it was a case of | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
just getting to the end and going their separate ways. Svoboda just | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
had to protect a lead. With a steady hand and steady pace, he | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
went through to his first goal. Try telling him this event is an | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
anachronism. The mountain biking is simpler in format but not in | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
execution, as the Olympic champion found out. This wasn't quite the | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
rocky road to ruin, but it is allowed the French rider a clear | :14:36. | :14:44. | |
run to gold. Amy last finished, eighth. Calamity can strike at sea | :14:44. | :14:51. | |
two, you are always a wave from a problem. -- can start -- can strike | :14:51. | :14:58. | |
at C2. The skipper, Olivier uprise, had to be picked up. Spain took | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
advantage on their way to gold. The consequences of overbalancing are | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
less severe in rhythmic gymnastics but points mean -- Polly's means | :15:08. | :15:17. | |
points. This was the first woman to mean all around -- to win two all | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
around colts. Montenegro were just two. Behind Norway in the women's | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
handball final. They simply applauded their opponents' defence | :15:31. | :15:38. | |
of the title. This was the USA Women's 5th Olympic title in a row | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
at basketball. France, the latest to have to shrug their shoulders. | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
The American volleyball team can empathise. Beaten by Brazil in the | :15:48. | :15:56. | |
final four years ago, and again now. This means the painful end to an | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
error. Difficult to know how crushing that might feel, unless | :15:59. | :16:04. | |
you have wrestled anyone from Azerbaijan. There was gold in one | :16:04. | :16:09. | |
division, then a triumph in the 84 kilo division. His Pakistan were to | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
grapple the headlines. The super- heavyweight in red won his third | :16:14. | :16:24. | |
:16:24. | :16:25. | ||
consecutive gold. -- is Pakistan -- Uzbekistan were to grapple the | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
headlines. In the women's taekwondo, there were 15 seconds to go when | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
the Italian landed this kick to rescue his gold medal hopes. The | :16:34. | :16:40. | |
Rome policemen eventually won Bay judges' decision. Late drama in the | :16:40. | :16:50. | |
:16:50. | :16:51. | ||
women's race walk. There was a place change with just 20 yards | :16:51. | :17:01. | |
:17:01. | :17:01. | ||
40 minutes later, travelling a little slower, Dominic King of | :17:01. | :17:08. | |
Britain. Sometimes the pace of life can get too much. At least he had a | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
few thousand homes took -- fans to help him home. | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
That is the beauty, he finishes last and gets a standing ovation. | :17:17. | :17:24. | |
It is only the Olympics, I think. We do celebrate the people who are | :17:24. | :17:31. | |
gutsy and heroic. What was the name of this when there? Eric the Eel. | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
Are you trying to test me on general knowledge? Sometimes it is | :17:35. | :17:40. | |
hard to remember that Tom Daley is still only 18. He was sitting here | :17:40. | :17:45. | |
with Gabby less than an hour ago. He shot to prominence as one of the | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
youngest ever Olympians when he finished 7th. Four years later, | :17:51. | :18:00. | |
:18:01. | :18:08. | ||
Daley was expected to contest the Back two-and-a-half somersault, | :18:08. | :18:18. | |
:18:18. | :18:21. | ||
two-and-a-half twists in the pike getting massive phone support. He | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
is getting frustrated. I don't know what he was saying there, maybe the | :18:25. | :18:31. | |
flashes put him off. You can see the flashbulbs going off. It looks | :18:31. | :18:38. | |
like a floodlight. Oh, he is allowed a re-dive. Here we go. The | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
referee has given him permission. Tom needs to compose himself. The | :18:43. | :18:50. | |
crowd will be asked not to take photos. Tom Daley, with the re-dive. | :18:50. | :18:58. | |
Turn your flashes off, please, and give this boy a chance. Yes, oh, | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
it's better! I don't know who is writing the script, whether Danny | :19:02. | :19:09. | |
Boyle has got in on the act, but you could not get in on more drama | :19:09. | :19:19. | |
:19:19. | :19:22. | ||
That is the one that we got! To Tom Daley, into first. Good luck, Tom | :19:22. | :19:30. | |
Daley, the country is behind you. Oh, yes, it's a good one. David | :19:30. | :19:38. | |
Boudia, no pressure, then. Fay he has performed it. Tom knows that is | :19:38. | :19:48. | |
:19:48. | :19:55. | ||
really good. 102.60. Tom Daley's on, or it is American gold. I don't | :19:55. | :20:03. | |
know which way it will go! 100.80, it puts him in second place. David | :20:03. | :20:13. | |
Boudia gets the gold. Tom Daley, it It was a final of incredible | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
quality. You have to be so precise. Tom Daley was so good tonight. He | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
got a bronze medal, silver and gold went elsewhere but he was so happy | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
with his performance. You could hear the aquatic stadium everywhere | :20:26. | :20:35. | |
in the Park tonight. It is such a huge vindication for an | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
extraordinary young man. There was a documentary in the lead-up to the | :20:39. | :20:48. | |
Games, he came across as a terrific role model, he also got straight As. | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
I think it's changed a lot of people's perception, a lot of | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
people were ready to jump on him if he did not succeed. That programme | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
and maybe the build-up to these games, maybe change the way people | :21:00. | :21:07. | |
think about him. There was a depressingly critical criticism. He | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
is a very difficult sport, China are not mac -- China iMac but isn't | :21:12. | :21:19. | |
ant he was a warning. People say the -- China are magnificent and he | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
wasn't winning. People would say he was not focusing enough. I think | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
when you consider the emotional roller-coaster he has been on, in | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
the public spotlight, it is difficult to relate to how much | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
attention he gets. If you're not used to being surrounded by people, | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
cameras flashing all the time, it is difficult for young person. He | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
was bullied at school, he has dealt with so much and to have achieved | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
on that stage was incredible, psychologically and a lot of other | :21:47. | :21:52. | |
ways. We have watched him change from a boy into a man. If anyone | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
else had at camera in their face for that amount of time, we would | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
see some ugly things but we have seen him mature and produce. | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
think we have seen that and I think he will grow. The extraordinary | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
thing about this sport is that every dive in the final count. One | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
mistake and you are punished. A lot of the field events, you have the | :22:13. | :22:21. | |
opportunities. He was consummate today. As soon as he had a poor | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
first dive, he was out and challenging the referees to change | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
it. I think it was justified but I think we have seen him grow into | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
it... It is a cliche to say grow into a man but he has grown in | :22:33. | :22:40. | |
stature. As we told you last night, the 200 metres is a new Olympic | :22:40. | :22:46. | |
event, shortened to make it an imp more exciting. Team GB have taken | :22:46. | :22:56. | |
:22:56. | :23:00. | ||
to it particularly well with Ed gets out quickest? The noise is | :23:00. | :23:07. | |
pouring down from the stands. McKeever is out first. He is | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
powering on. He has such great strength. He will try to reel them | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
in. He is holding on at the moment as they come into the final 50 | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
metres. He is still out in front, he will have to work hard. They are | :23:22. | :23:29. | |
not going to reel him in. He is still holding on. It is gold for Ed | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
McKeever for Great Britain. The quiet man leads out a roar as he | :23:33. | :23:42. | |
becomes Olympic champion. He went out fast, he held on strong, he was | :23:42. | :23:52. | |
I was focused on the first two or three strokes. I just wanted to | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
nail those, get out cleanly and hopefully the race sorted itself | :23:56. | :23:59. | |
out. The start is so important, you got | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
an early advantage and from that moment, we were thinking, he is not | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
going to lose it from here. Hopefully the competitors thought | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
that way as well. Yes, so happy. The moment you crossed the line, | :24:12. | :24:20. | |
what did you feel? Just kind of relief. It sounds stupid. Not | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
elation or those other things. More relief. So happy I could do it in | :24:24. | :24:32. | |
front of the home crowd. Jess Walker came in 7th in the women's | :24:32. | :24:37. | |
single kayak. There was a bronze medal for Jon Scofield and Liam | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
Heath in the men's double, they win the silver position for much of the | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
race, only to be beaten to the line by the Belarus crude. The | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
impressive Russians took the gold. -- Belarus crew. They have made | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
these changes in canoeing to try to make it more exciting. But when the | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
rowers keep winning the medals, they will continue to be the water- | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
based beast when it comes to the Olympics. I think the spectacle was | :25:03. | :25:08. | |
so emotionally intense. It gets up, it is active and it is overpowering, | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
almost, as a spectator. Somebody mentioned the other day that these | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
British sports are in competition for each other for a single pot of | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
funding. Canoeing has done terrifically well, a gold and | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
silver in the slalom, a gold in the sprints, bronze in the doubles | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
sprints. They are going to get more funding. That is the growth they | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
will get over the next four years. They are likely to do better in Rio | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
given they will be able to hire better coaches, doctors, support | :25:35. | :25:42. | |
staff. Shall we do some boxing? Not since 19 away it has Britain had | :25:42. | :25:49. | |
four fighters in the finals. -- not since 1908. Tonight, Luke Campbell | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
was hoping to be victorious in the men's bantamweight final. What a | :25:54. | :26:03. | |
final it promised to be against just keep on giving for Great | :26:03. | :26:09. | |
Britain. But for one more gold, Luke Campbell would have to give | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
that little bit more. In a thumping atmosphere, Campbell and John Joe | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
Nevin produced a thrilling three rounds of the Olympic boxing. The | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
first round was Campbell's, he scored with the better shots to | :26:20. | :26:26. | |
gain a small lead. The second was Nevin's, he eliminated the | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
favourite and the world champion from Cuba in the semi-finals and | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
produced a similar standard here. After years of training, plane, | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
sweat in the gym, it would come down to the final three minutes. To | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
be an Olympic champion, you have to seize the moment. Luke Campbell did | :26:43. | :26:53. | |
:26:53. | :26:56. | ||
just that. Nevin needs more shots, I think there was a punch there. | :26:56. | :27:01. | |
Nevin, desperate to get back into it. Campbell covers up. 10 seconds | :27:01. | :27:07. | |
to go. Here comes Nevin. Good work to the body by the Irishman. This | :27:07. | :27:17. | |
:27:17. | :27:22. | ||
is going to be a nail-biting... The winner, by 14-11 and Olympic | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
champion, in the blue corner, representing Great Britain, Luke | :27:27. | :27:37. | |
:27:37. | :27:38. | ||
Star You are the Olympic champion. How are you feeling? I am lost for | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
words, very emotional. Some think I have been waiting for my life. I | :27:42. | :27:48. | |
can't believe it. There was plenty of disbelief elsewhere, but for | :27:48. | :27:53. | |
very different reasons. The crowd and the fighter from Thailand | :27:53. | :27:56. | |
thought gold was is in the men's lightweight final. When the result | :27:56. | :28:04. | |
went the way of the Chinese fighter, shock, anger and tears followed. | :28:04. | :28:08. | |
Elsewhere, victories for Cuba in the light-welter category, and for | :28:08. | :28:14. | |
Japan in the middleweight division. In the heavyweight final, Ukraine's | :28:14. | :28:19. | |
fighter edged out the Italian for gold, but quickly proved his boxing | :28:19. | :28:26. | |
is far better than his dancing. This is pretty spectacular for a | :28:26. | :28:36. | |
:28:36. | :28:39. | ||
And so if after two weeks you were still not sure what the Olympics | :28:39. | :28:45. | |
was all about, Luke Campbell's face says it all. Nine minutes had | :28:45. | :28:54. | |
changed his life and made his I love that story, and boxing has | :28:54. | :28:59. | |
provided some wonderful stories. Where has that comes from? Is it | :28:59. | :29:05. | |
talent, is it funding? Because we need that for all sports. I think | :29:05. | :29:09. | |
it is the coaching and a really talented generation of young boxers | :29:09. | :29:15. | |
coming through. And we cannot discount the money that has | :29:15. | :29:21. | |
transformed the future of these boxes. If we go back to 1988 and | :29:21. | :29:27. | |
the disgraceful decision that cost Jones a medal in Seoul, there was a | :29:27. | :29:31. | |
list of terrible judging decisions that made a mockery of the sport. | :29:31. | :29:36. | |
We were watching, seeing somebody win and having the judges come up | :29:36. | :29:40. | |
with a completely different decision. They have tweaked the | :29:40. | :29:43. | |
scoring system and now they have some incredible and the public | :29:43. | :29:48. | |
believes in it. And a point others have made is that boxing has a huge | :29:48. | :29:55. | |
social factor to it. Particularly for young men, but we have seen | :29:55. | :30:01. | |
young women as well, for them to change their lives forever. It is a | :30:01. | :30:06. | |
great socially transformative sport. It has been that way since the | :30:06. | :30:12. | |
rules were invented. In America, it was a way out of the ghetto | :30:12. | :30:22. | |
:30:22. | :30:23. | ||
And out immigrant communities. And if you go to these gyms and see | :30:23. | :30:28. | |
what these wonderful coaches are doing to the youth... They have all | :30:28. | :30:31. | |
sort of other things they could be doing that would not be | :30:31. | :30:36. | |
particularly socially benign but boxing is a great support and a | :30:36. | :30:40. | |
centrepiece of the Olympics. would love to have a wander around | :30:40. | :30:47. | |
your head at some time! So much knowledge! Now over to the hockey, | :30:47. | :30:53. | |
and the women manage to get the bronze by winning to New Zealand. | :30:53. | :30:58. | |
The men set out to put things right today against Australia after their | :30:58. | :31:08. | |
:31:08. | :31:14. | ||
chance and an opening goal. Mrs Jackson. And it is a goal! | :31:14. | :31:24. | |
:31:24. | :31:56. | ||
And the green and gold have got the bronze. Britain leave empty-handed, | :31:56. | :32:00. | |
and on the day, you have to give credit to Australia. They were the | :32:00. | :32:10. | |
:32:10. | :32:12. | ||
In the semi-finals, we finished 5th, and between then and now, although | :32:12. | :32:15. | |
it is an improvement, it is difficult to take. To come away | :32:15. | :32:20. | |
with nothing. We are devastated but at the same time, that is a | :32:20. | :32:23. | |
performance that we want to be remembered for her and one to | :32:23. | :32:26. | |
deliver again and again. We desperately wants that semi-final | :32:26. | :32:35. | |
back. -- wanted to deliver. No joy for Team GB there. The final was | :32:35. | :32:41. | |
won by Germany with a win over the Netherlands. A brilliant solo goal | :32:41. | :32:48. | |
put them ahead. The Dutch then equalised. Then the Germans struck | :32:48. | :32:52. | |
again with five minutes left to ensure it was Germany going home | :32:52. | :32:57. | |
from London with the gold medal. You have written famously about the | :32:57. | :33:01. | |
power of the mind and the psychology of sport and that sort | :33:01. | :33:06. | |
of stuff. When it comes to the Great Britain's men's hockey team, | :33:06. | :33:09. | |
that defeat when they wanted so much to perform and they needed so | :33:09. | :33:14. | |
much to produce their best, how big a stain will that leave? It clearly | :33:14. | :33:19. | |
affected them today as well? If I can just draw on my own experience, | :33:19. | :33:23. | |
if I ever played a round robin and had a particularly difficult to | :33:23. | :33:28. | |
feed, I found it impossible to go out hours later or even the next | :33:28. | :33:33. | |
day, and compete. -- difficult to feed. I needed a few weeks to | :33:33. | :33:38. | |
recover and move on. And I can understand however devastating | :33:38. | :33:41. | |
performance can leave psychological scar tissue. I admire those | :33:41. | :33:47. | |
athletes who can get over writ within seconds, minutes, hours, and | :33:47. | :33:54. | |
re-establish their performances. But there were very badly hurt. | :33:54. | :33:59. | |
has been a few weeks without much football. But tomorrow is the | :33:59. | :34:03. | |
Community Shield. It has been out of commission during the Olympics. | :34:03. | :34:09. | |
Today, Brazil battled Mexico for gold. Amazingly, they had never won | :34:09. | :34:15. | |
gold. What they needed was to get off to a good start. The | :34:15. | :34:25. | |
:34:25. | :34:27. | ||
commentators did not see the start Brazil. A chance! And the first | :34:28. | :34:34. | |
goal of the game goes to Mexico after just 30 odd seconds. An | :34:34. | :34:40. | |
absolute stunner! Brazil gave it away and Mexico are 1-0 up at | :34:40. | :34:50. | |
:34:50. | :34:53. | ||
Wembley. And now the man who scored the fastest of goal it in Olympic | :34:53. | :35:03. | |
history in the first minute. they have a chance. Off the right | :35:03. | :35:13. | |
:35:13. | :35:15. | ||
foot. And they are into this Olympic final of London 2012. | :35:15. | :35:22. | |
Waiting for a drop... Goodness me! What a chance! It sends the game | :35:22. | :35:29. | |
into extra-time in the Olympic men's final. Two goals in stoppage | :35:29. | :35:35. | |
time. But the moment is gone. The gold medal is Mexico's. The moment | :35:35. | :35:45. | |
:35:45. | :35:46. | ||
They seemed destined not to win this. They will be up for it and | :35:46. | :35:50. | |
that will be a key moment for them. But how have to be brutally honest. | :35:50. | :35:55. | |
I find it so difficult to get excited about Olympic football. | :35:55. | :35:59. | |
was going to ask you this. Has it not been centre stage as some felt | :35:59. | :36:05. | |
it would be? It has not been centre stage. It has been on the outside | :36:05. | :36:10. | |
and that is right. The British footballing public and the global | :36:10. | :36:15. | |
footballing public is very sophisticated. We all know about | :36:15. | :36:18. | |
the European Cups, the international cups, and they are | :36:18. | :36:24. | |
the defining moments for a player to win. They tried hard and it was | :36:24. | :36:28. | |
competitive. The second half was terrific in places but it isn't the | :36:29. | :36:33. | |
pinnacle and the players know that. That is why it is absolutely right | :36:33. | :36:41. | |
it should have been a peripheral part of the Olympics story. | :36:41. | :36:51. | |
:36:51. | :36:56. | ||
golds now for the home nation. And incredible for us to be third, | :36:56. | :37:01. | |
trailing behind the might of China and the United States. Germany and | :37:01. | :37:07. | |
France, the only other nations into double figures. Time for our usual | :37:07. | :37:17. | |
:37:17. | :37:19. | ||
look at the papers. This is the times paper. The Observer have got | :37:19. | :37:25. | |
to Mo doing the Mobot. But his disbelief, joy and everything | :37:25. | :37:35. | |
:37:35. | :37:35. | ||
wrapped up. The Sun - Greatest Mo on Earth. And also a free beach | :37:35. | :37:41. | |
ball in the Sunday Express! The Independent - they have gone for | :37:41. | :37:49. | |
"the greatest". The epic victory in the 5,000 metres. And this is from | :37:49. | :37:55. | |
page of The Daily Mail. And a free poster of British sporting stars. | :37:55. | :38:00. | |
That tells you everything you need to know about tonight. Everybody | :38:00. | :38:04. | |
thinks that was the story - Mo Farah. And they are probably right, | :38:05. | :38:13. | |
Anybody watching on television will not forget what they saw. It is a | :38:13. | :38:18. | |
moment we will be talking about in 10, 20, 30 years' time. Where were | :38:18. | :38:24. | |
you when he won his medals? If he were to score this out of 10, the | :38:24. | :38:29. | |
Olympics in general, what would you give it? 9.9! A Albert wants to | :38:29. | :38:34. | |
know, surely the committee have realise they have to bring the | :38:34. | :38:38. | |
Games back to London in the next 20 years? I think unlikely because | :38:38. | :38:41. | |
they will want to spread it around but I think London has given a | :38:41. | :38:45. | |
template other cities will want to follow. Incredible volunteers, | :38:45. | :38:52. | |
beautifully delivered. The athletes have responded. Perfection is very | :38:52. | :38:58. | |
difficult but it is nearly there! Challenges after these Games. What | :38:58. | :39:03. | |
do you see as the biggest challenge? Is it school sport or is | :39:03. | :39:08. | |
it a wider than that? One, to sustain this level of performance | :39:08. | :39:13. | |
in four years time, because that will be very difficult. But also | :39:13. | :39:15. | |
whether this big social transformation will happen, with | :39:15. | :39:19. | |
lots of people taking up support for recreation, with all the health | :39:19. | :39:23. | |
benefits that should provide. No previous Olympics has managed to | :39:23. | :39:30. | |
deliver that upsurge in participation. And it is a question. | :39:30. | :39:34. | |
We see it at Wimbledon. The tennis courts are full for a few weeks | :39:34. | :39:37. | |
around the tournament and then there are empty. It will be | :39:37. | :39:40. | |
fascinating to see whether this catalyses the change everybody is | :39:40. | :39:45. | |
hoping for. A because lots of people have said on Twitter tonight | :39:45. | :39:50. | |
and elsewhere, and David Cameron has mentioned it as well, an | :39:50. | :39:53. | |
interesting statistics saying 10,000 school playing fields have | :39:53. | :39:59. | |
been sold off since 1979. Is this an area that has to change and the | :39:59. | :40:04. | |
importance of sport in schools if we are to see... Yes, funding can | :40:04. | :40:07. | |
make a difference but it is heritage and culture and the way we | :40:07. | :40:13. | |
deal with sport? It is fundamental for a number of reasons. With | :40:13. | :40:17. | |
facilities, if you don't have the playground, you cannot do it. With | :40:17. | :40:22. | |
so many sold off, that makes it a strategic challenge. For too long | :40:22. | :40:28. | |
in the 1980s, left-leaning education authorities also did not | :40:28. | :40:33. | |
like competition in sport. We need to re introduce competitiveness in | :40:33. | :40:39. | |
sport. But the other thing we have to do as well, even if people take | :40:39. | :40:46. | |
part in sport at school, it is no guarantee of the transition into | :40:46. | :40:52. | |
later life, and that could help with diabetes and so on. So I don't | :40:52. | :40:57. | |
think it is an inevitability that it will be delivered. And I have | :40:57. | :41:01. | |
asked people for their best and worst moments. Many people have | :41:01. | :41:07. | |
said, Chris Whare, Jess Ennis, Bradley Wiggins. The worst, Britain | :41:07. | :41:11. | |
being disqualified in the sprint relay and Jess Varnish with only | :41:11. | :41:15. | |
one chance in the velodrome, who was disqualified with Victoria | :41:15. | :41:20. | |
Pendleton. That tells you there are so many choices for the best moment. | :41:21. | :41:24. | |
He Olympics ought to be a mosaic that we can pick and choose from. - | :41:24. | :41:34. | |
:41:34. | :41:41. | ||

great to have you on. Finally, Jessica says, the best was when the | :42:10. | :42:14. | |
Olympics started and the worst is when it finishes! That just about | :42:14. | :42:24. | |
:42:24. | :42:32. | ||

Luke Campbell is the Olympic bantamweight champion. He polled a | :44:03. | :44:10. |
