:01:12. > :01:16.what a night it promises to be as day 13 comes to an end and the
:01:16. > :01:20.London 2012 Games reaches its final furlongs. We have all of the action
:01:20. > :01:30.from another memorable day in the company of these guys and these
:01:30. > :01:40.
:01:40. > :01:47.Yes! He is on route to gold and the world record. You can't be serious.
:01:47. > :01:57.That ball was on the line. pride of Sheffield, the pride of
:01:57. > :02:06.
:02:06. > :02:16.We have John McEnroe! And double gold medallist Daley
:02:16. > :02:21.
:02:21. > :02:31.If that wasn't enough for you, we have gold medal heptathlete Jessica
:02:31. > :02:36.
:02:36. > :02:41.I think you've been trying to avoid the crowds. This is amazing. It is
:02:41. > :02:46.brilliant, I am overwhelmed by the support. I am enjoying this
:02:46. > :02:52.Olympics. We are going to go inside in a minute so we can speak
:02:52. > :02:57.properly, but this has been a wonderful event. Every event in the
:02:58. > :03:03.Olympics has been like this. The races, the triathlon has. It has
:03:03. > :03:07.been brilliant. These guys have really made it. This has been the
:03:07. > :03:14.best Olympics. John McEnroe, Your loving this. It is just like
:03:14. > :03:20.Wimbledon. Her I wish it was like Wimbledon! This is incredible. It
:03:20. > :03:25.will be like this until the end. have got more from you coming up.
:03:25. > :03:32.We have got swimming, taekwondo, boxing and dressage, but we will
:03:32. > :03:38.start with the men's 200m final. The young pretender, Yohan Blake,
:03:38. > :03:48.and the one and only Usain Bolt. The moment of truth has finally
:03:48. > :03:48.
:03:48. > :04:40.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds
:04:40. > :04:45.to. Offices and the event he started at. The event where he bows
:04:45. > :04:51.dump -- burst onto the scene as a junior at the age of 15, winning
:04:51. > :05:01.the World Championships. He has dominated the world of sprinting,
:05:01. > :05:01.
:05:01. > :05:58.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds
:05:58. > :06:02.takes silver. -- gold all the way. He is unique. You can't argue that
:06:02. > :06:07.he has no equal. He is incomparable he has no equal. He is incomparable
:06:07. > :06:13.in the world of sprinting. You wanted to come here and cement
:06:13. > :06:19.your legend. Tell me what it means. This is what I wanted and I got it.
:06:19. > :06:22.I'm very proud of myself. I had a rough season, I came here and did
:06:22. > :06:28.what I had to do. Is it more special to celebrate with these
:06:28. > :06:34.guys? Without a doubt. My coach will be going crazy right now. We
:06:34. > :06:39.pushed each other. This is the end product. Let me ask you, this year
:06:39. > :06:49.has not been the easiest of build up. You said you were 95% fit, but
:06:49. > :06:50.
:06:50. > :06:54.you have still been able to do this. Sum up what this means. It is hard.
:06:54. > :07:03.I am really dedicated to my work and I know what London meant to me.
:07:03. > :07:09.I am happy. You are a legend. Per and have set it better myself!
:07:09. > :07:19.The first man to defend his title, his fourth Olympic gold medal. No
:07:19. > :07:20.
:07:20. > :07:26.Incredible. Running out of superlatives for him. Did you enjoy
:07:26. > :07:31.that? It was incredible. We thought you needed an adrenalin rush, you
:07:31. > :07:37.haven't done much recently! A bit of a low. Let's talk about Usain
:07:37. > :07:42.Bolt. The first double double. always said he wanted to be a
:07:42. > :07:47.legend and in order to do that he would have to do the double double.
:07:47. > :07:52.I guess the legend continues. He is still easily the best. He can
:07:52. > :07:56.continue to be so for as long as he wants. I suspect he will lack a
:07:56. > :08:00.little bit of motivation because he likes doing other things. Michael
:08:00. > :08:04.Johnson said yesterday that when he interviewed him recently, he asked
:08:04. > :08:08.him questions about when he knew it was time to retire. Michael said
:08:08. > :08:13.when you start winning buy less. He looked like he was pushed by Yohan
:08:13. > :08:17.Blake. There was an element of pressure coming into this. You know
:08:17. > :08:22.about living up to expectation. People were a little bit worried
:08:22. > :08:25.and not sure about his form. He dominated everything for so long
:08:25. > :08:35.but then what Blake, Lun Gong and challenging him. But he is
:08:35. > :08:36.
:08:36. > :08:41.incredible. He is a true champion. Brilliant to watch. I think he held
:08:41. > :08:45.back. People were wondering if he was injured or if he had lost it. I
:08:45. > :08:51.don't think there was ever a doubt. He was gone. Nobody would catch him.
:08:51. > :08:55.He knew it, everybody knew it. The guide is magic. He lights up the
:08:55. > :08:59.crowd. He has such a huge personality, he is brilliant for
:08:59. > :09:05.the sport. It in the last few years, our sport would have sunk without a
:09:05. > :09:10.trace without him. Everybody owes him a debt of gratitude. He is the
:09:10. > :09:13.guide that is bringing the crowds back. It would have been a funny
:09:13. > :09:22.dilemma if the guy that everybody wanted to see was not the best
:09:22. > :09:28.guide. Compare him to 2008, 200m there, can you see any difference
:09:28. > :09:35.in his tiny? He looked more under pressure tonight. -- his technique.
:09:35. > :09:40.It blows me away watching him. It is incredible. It is not comparable
:09:40. > :09:46.to anybody else. I was in the box after the race and he is so much
:09:47. > :09:51.bigger than these guys. It seems like... We are talking about what
:09:51. > :09:58.will happen in the next four years, but he can get better. I think he
:09:58. > :10:03.will be in Rio. It you think so? can't afford not to be. For Blake,
:10:03. > :10:07.to live in his shadow, arguably he would be the best in the world if
:10:07. > :10:11.it wasn't for Bolt, he will be pushing him. And you have Warren
:10:11. > :10:15.Weir. If he was from the UK, we would all be talking about him.
:10:15. > :10:22.Both of those guys are two or three years younger. They have time on
:10:22. > :10:26.their hands. With plate, having beaten him in the Jamaica trials, I
:10:26. > :10:30.think he will want to assert himself over the next few years. I
:10:30. > :10:40.think it will be really fascinating. Let's listen to the Jamaican
:10:40. > :10:42.
:10:42. > :10:48.Off they go. Blake was up very quickly. Bolt ahead of the field
:10:48. > :10:58.already. Usain Bolt comes off the turn in front. The big man is in
:10:58. > :10:58.
:10:58. > :11:01.charge. Blake is coming fast. Usain Bolt wins again! Look at the time.
:11:01. > :11:06.19.32. Usain Bolt wins the sprint double for the second Olympics in a
:11:06. > :11:11.row. Is there are thrown in England big enough to hold this man? I
:11:11. > :11:19.think not. These are the scenes in Jamaica House tonight. Everyone is
:11:19. > :11:25.Jamaican tonight! Jess and I were looking at the crowd earlier and
:11:25. > :11:29.families. Everybody wants a piece of the action. In London, you got
:11:29. > :11:34.so many different countries that have communities here and the fact
:11:34. > :11:37.that there's so much yellow and green in the stadium tonight.
:11:37. > :11:43.Jamaica have dominated. It is a very proud moment for their country.
:11:43. > :11:46.It is brilliant to see. They have taken the one-two-three. It is
:11:46. > :11:50.incredible to watch and the support they had in the stadium was just
:11:50. > :11:54.like we had. They have made sprinting their national sport.
:11:55. > :11:59.They have, and they've been good at it for a few years. They have
:11:59. > :12:03.turned the corner. They always had people that were talented
:12:03. > :12:07.physically, but now these guys seem to have the mental toughness to go
:12:08. > :12:13.with their talent. What I like about these guys is the fact that
:12:13. > :12:16.they have the joy of life. When they are not participating, they
:12:16. > :12:21.are having a good time and they are letting people know they are having
:12:21. > :12:28.a good time. That makes them really attractive. Hopefully Bolt will be
:12:28. > :12:34.left alone to a tiny degree in his country. I have seen him talk
:12:34. > :12:38.publicly about being able to be himself. He is such a superstar. It
:12:38. > :12:44.is a country of 2.5 million people. It feels like they are dominating
:12:44. > :12:49.the Games. They have less than 10 medals and it feels like they are
:12:49. > :12:54.at the top of the table. It is the Blue Riband events they are taking.
:12:54. > :13:02.Everybody sees it around the world. They enjoy themselves. He manages
:13:02. > :13:08.to pull a face on the blocks or making gesticulation with his hands.
:13:08. > :13:14.The kids love it. Nobody came into these games with more expectation
:13:14. > :13:24.from asked Van Jessica Ennis. But boy, did she deliver. Jessica Ennis
:13:24. > :13:34.has got the potential to set the The fastest time ever by a
:13:34. > :13:34.
:13:34. > :13:44.heptathlete! Come on! One step closer to the gold medal for
:13:44. > :13:54.
:13:54. > :14:01.Jessica Ennis. Just get Ennis is Jessica Ennis is the Olympic
:14:01. > :14:05.champion. The best all-round athlete in the world. What do you
:14:05. > :14:11.feel like when you see that? Be it is such a great feeling, I can't
:14:11. > :14:15.describe it. It is just really emotional. Just being there for
:14:15. > :14:19.those two days and for it to come together the way it did and now to
:14:19. > :14:24.be sat here, all of that pressure off my shoulders, with my medal and
:14:24. > :14:33.I can just enjoy every moment. have stayed for you, give them away
:14:33. > :14:38.for! They are brilliant. Everywhere you go, this is what it will be
:14:38. > :14:42.like. People just want to have a piece of you and talk to you and
:14:42. > :14:49.congratulate you and thank you. I've got a permanent smile on my
:14:49. > :14:53.face. My jaws are aching! Everyone has a buzz around the stadium. They
:14:53. > :14:58.are enjoying every minute of the Olympics. It is great to see how
:14:58. > :15:08.everyone has got behind all of us. It is just a brilliant feeling.
:15:08. > :15:10.
:15:10. > :15:14.I've never managed to cope with it, but she is down to earth and has
:15:14. > :15:18.not spent her time in glamourous places, and when she's not spending
:15:19. > :15:24.her time in the chauffeur-driven limousines, she is very down-to-
:15:24. > :15:33.earth. When you came off the final straight, what was going through
:15:33. > :15:38.your mind? I was a little bit behind the two girls, and I thought
:15:38. > :15:42.this was my last big moment, something less in my legs -- left
:15:42. > :15:48.to my legs, and the last time I was beaten by her, so I was going to
:15:48. > :15:51.make sure I crossed the line first and finished with a victory.
:15:51. > :15:55.were such a crowd-pleaser at that moment, in more ways than one.
:15:55. > :16:03.There is a picture of you with the arms in your air, and you can feel
:16:03. > :16:07.the relief when you see that. see to within my Tennis Halle, Andy
:16:07. > :16:11.Murray at Wimbledon, so I imagine it was up by 10 times, because that
:16:11. > :16:15.is a lot different than Wimbledon. I congratulate you with being able
:16:15. > :16:23.to handle the pressure. Please get a little sleep. Have a wonderful
:16:23. > :16:28.vacation. Any plans to be in another event? For me, this year,
:16:28. > :16:32.I'm going to rest and recover and enjoy it for a bit. The then it is
:16:32. > :16:35.the World Championships in Moscow, so that is what I will aim for.
:16:35. > :16:40.were discussing your future last night. Michael Johnson and Denise
:16:40. > :16:44.Lewis were discussing your potential over the hurdles, and
:16:44. > :16:51.whether you might want to concentrate on just one event. The
:16:51. > :16:57.toll on your body, obviously, is so great as a malty event athlete. Is
:16:57. > :17:01.that something you are thinking about? -- multi- event. My mind is
:17:01. > :17:07.all over the place, but I feel like I want to carry on with the
:17:07. > :17:10.heptathlon and think if I can get to the 7,000. Mark. But eventually
:17:10. > :17:16.your body will say it has had enough and you pick up more
:17:16. > :17:20.injuries, but after that I would love to give the hurdles a real go.
:17:20. > :17:23.It is a band of brothers, you people doing all the events, the
:17:23. > :17:30.girls and the guys, you walk together, and I think we should
:17:30. > :17:40.remind ourselves of the great thing -- things you did, Daley Thompson.
:17:40. > :17:42.
:17:42. > :17:52.Daley Thompson with a remarkable start. He is miles ahead it. Look
:17:52. > :18:04.
:18:04. > :18:09.at the clock! Coming down nicely, It is another fine, fine start. The
:18:09. > :18:18.master is clear! Daley Thompson, the greatest all-round athlete in
:18:18. > :18:24.Daley Thompson was busy persuading her she should forget the
:18:24. > :18:33.heptathlon and not leave it. think there is unfinished business.
:18:33. > :18:43.If you are in fantastic shape on your first day... You're not too
:18:43. > :18:49.chubby. A banks, daily. The next two events, average for you. Don't
:18:49. > :18:56.get negative! She won the gold. know, but there is more. It is
:18:56. > :19:00.different in tennis, John. You are never looking for perfection.
:19:00. > :19:05.was great was seeing how much use to light up the crowd and you look
:19:05. > :19:11.like every event, every one of the 10 events, you were smiling. Even
:19:11. > :19:15.in the 1,500 metres you managed it. That was my happy place, being in a
:19:15. > :19:20.big competition, that was my happy place. That is where I enjoyed
:19:20. > :19:25.being. The training is hard and sometimes it's a bit miserable, but
:19:25. > :19:30.for me, if I couldn't be happy there, it wouldn't have been worth
:19:30. > :19:33.doing. What was the biggest challenge for you in the last six
:19:33. > :19:37.months? Signor face everywhere, becoming the pin-up girl of the
:19:37. > :19:42.Games, did he get to a point where you thought, they all want me to
:19:42. > :19:46.win this and I am feeling it? definitely felt it. I tried to
:19:46. > :19:50.block it out as much as I could. I was privileged to be in that
:19:50. > :19:55.position, more than anything, not being part of the last Olympics, so
:19:55. > :19:58.a great position for me. More than anything it was the training. The
:19:58. > :20:02.hard training, sitting in the gym, doing the running session and I
:20:02. > :20:07.wondered why I was doing it. Because you can be the greatest
:20:07. > :20:13.shape ever and then it comes to the Olympics and things go wrong. I was
:20:13. > :20:17.just really anxious about it. much as everybody wanted you to be
:20:17. > :20:21.in Beijing, to be in front of your home crowd and have that reception,
:20:21. > :20:26.especially on the first morning, so many people said it there we have
:20:26. > :20:32.seen so many Olympics where it is how boring in the morning session,
:20:32. > :20:37.but your first day was beautiful. That is what I expected, a few
:20:37. > :20:43.empty seats, because it was early, but to step out there and see a
:20:43. > :20:47.full stadium and the cheering was just amazing. And you have a lovely
:20:47. > :20:52.wedding to plan as well. He s, I have some things to do, fun things,
:20:52. > :21:00.and I can have a break, dress shopping, flower arranging, I love
:21:00. > :21:05.all that! Daley Thompson's face glazed over. John has had a few of
:21:05. > :21:12.those, to be fair. The second one was better, but good luck with the
:21:13. > :21:22.Jade Jones was fighting in the tae kwon do, and what a day the 19-
:21:22. > :21:27.J Jones, British Olympian, and an emphatic winner in the first round,
:21:27. > :21:33.and she has sprinted into the tae kwon do quarter finals. Wales is
:21:33. > :21:39.finding itself a pocket-sized battling heroin. She is into the
:21:39. > :21:42.Olympic semi-finals. Jade Jones is an Olympic finalist! And if there
:21:42. > :21:49.has been a fine a moment in the history of tae kwon do in this
:21:49. > :21:53.country, none of us have ever seen it. Jade Jones won three fights
:21:53. > :21:57.through the day, and the 19-year- old was going for goal at The Excel
:21:57. > :22:07.Arena tonight. She was up against the Chinese world champion and we
:22:07. > :22:08.
:22:08. > :22:13.will join it at the start of the The final round of the Olympic
:22:13. > :22:21.final, the final two minutes. Just two minutes standing between Jade
:22:21. > :22:31.Jones, and you know what. She is up against one of the sports deadliest
:22:31. > :22:37.
:22:37. > :22:47.exponents. Jade Jones in the blue, Attacking back kicks, but she looks
:22:47. > :22:48.
:22:48. > :22:53.weary in her legs, the Chinese. That young lady is giving her a
:22:53. > :22:58.head full of problems at the moment. The database running in the
:22:58. > :23:01.background, subconsciously, they have to choose what distance to
:23:01. > :23:08.throw at, when to do it, how to do it, but it is all about Jones at
:23:08. > :23:13.the moment. Two points is not a lot at this stage. Another caution
:23:13. > :23:17.against the Chinese for the pushing and that could be costly. Jade
:23:17. > :23:27.Jones has got one against her, so she cannot hang back. The Chinese
:23:27. > :23:35.was looking, but Jones has scored again. 3-0! The Chinese athlete
:23:35. > :23:38.takes it, and that helps Jones even more. 4-0. Not time to start
:23:39. > :23:43.believing, because tae kwon do has caused can rattle up in the blink
:23:43. > :23:48.of an eye but we are into the final minute and James Joe -- Jade Jones
:23:48. > :23:52.is on the brink of something special. She has conceded a point
:23:52. > :23:59.penalty, so the lead is back to just three, but she is within reach
:23:59. > :24:05.of a head shot, but not any more. Four points clear! Point by point,
:24:05. > :24:09.that gold is getting closer and closer. Paul Green can barely
:24:09. > :24:18.contain himself. As I suspect few of you back home it will be able to
:24:18. > :24:22.do. Who thought she could get sowing -- excited about tae kwon
:24:22. > :24:28.do? That is the beauty of sport and the beauty of the Games. That is
:24:28. > :24:32.the gift of the game's from tae kwon do. It is all about Jade Jones,
:24:32. > :24:38.in a dominant form. She picks up another point and she is on the
:24:38. > :24:42.cast. It has been brought back to four. Very quickly. But she is on
:24:42. > :24:46.the cusp. Never has a British tae kwon do player been able to call
:24:46. > :24:53.themselves Olympic champion. The countdown will begin. She has to be
:24:53. > :25:03.careful. Three points will concede the gold medal and she's just two
:25:03. > :25:06.
:25:07. > :25:10.points ahead now. Keep an eye on You little beauty! And the teenage
:25:10. > :25:18.keeking superstars -- superstar from North Wales is the Olympic
:25:18. > :25:23.Jade Jones the first ever Olympic tae kwon do champion for Team GB,
:25:23. > :25:30.how does that feel? It is crazy. I have dreamt about it for ages and
:25:30. > :25:33.it is amazing. The crowd have been just amazing. You have won a Youth
:25:33. > :25:40.Olympic gold medal, but how does this compare? That was special at
:25:40. > :25:44.the time because I was only a junior, but this is crazy. How have
:25:44. > :25:50.you remained calm? He won 19 years old, in front of an incredible
:25:51. > :25:55.crowd, and delivered a incredible performance. My coach, Paul Green,
:25:55. > :26:05.he is a legend. I wouldn't have been mean with at -- near without
:26:05. > :26:07.
:26:07. > :26:12.Jade Jones getting her gold medal today. 19 years old, our first ever
:26:13. > :26:17.Olympic gold medallist in tae kwon do. And what an incredible feeling
:26:17. > :26:20.that must be. What is it like when it goes round your neck? It is the
:26:20. > :26:26.best feeling in the world, especially when the crowd is there
:26:27. > :26:36.and you hear the national anthem, it's a brilliant feeling. Well,
:26:37. > :27:15.
:27:15. > :27:20.The this is the scene at now, and there is Jade Jones, doing the
:27:20. > :27:24.classic biking of the gold medal. I am sure you did a few of those.
:27:24. > :27:31.don't remember trying to bite one, but I do have a nice little
:27:31. > :27:35.collection. Rafael Nadal lights -- likes to bite the Cup, so he
:27:35. > :27:40.probably did that in 2008 when he won the gold. I'm not quite sure
:27:40. > :27:49.why people do that. Is it an instinctive reaction? They have
:27:49. > :27:57.seen people, so they do it again. Did you fall for it, Jessica?
:27:57. > :28:02.An amateur mistake. She won't do it next time. What a day. She started
:28:02. > :28:06.at 10:30am, and Imry end at 11pm, or even a few minutes after -- it
:28:06. > :28:11.might end. It is like when you do so many events, you have to keep
:28:11. > :28:15.building up. It is a long day and the adrenalin is pumping and you
:28:15. > :28:23.are nervous and anxious. You're on a massive roller-coaster, down for
:28:23. > :28:27.those hours, then up for those days. You know what this means, folks. We
:28:27. > :28:37.had none of the yesterday, but now we can have a little blast of
:28:37. > :28:38.
:28:38. > :28:48.Spandau Ballet! Yes,, you can move the arrow. 23 goals, John. More
:28:48. > :28:54.
:28:54. > :28:59.Will we get to 35? I doubt we will get to 35. Don't be a pessimist.
:28:59. > :29:06.But there's not many days left. They will have to be events we have
:29:06. > :29:10.never previously won or even entered in the categories? He John
:29:10. > :29:16.turned up for the 100, they would have given a house. There was a
:29:16. > :29:20.feeling that we had come to expect the success in his games, and we
:29:20. > :29:25.were reminded of a few Olympics ago where we weren't quite so dominant
:29:25. > :29:31.in many sports, but it is a good feeling. I think the British have a
:29:31. > :29:34.problem with success. First of all we started with the fact that we
:29:34. > :29:40.were worried we would not win anything, now we are worried we are
:29:40. > :29:46.winning too much. Let's enjoy it the right and see what comes.
:29:46. > :29:52.Jones enjoying it, being grabbed, and hopefully exported over to
:29:52. > :29:56.being to start an interview. Daley Thompson hit the nail on the head.
:29:56. > :30:01.They were a couple of days where it was a bit bitchy. That is just down
:30:01. > :30:10.to the timetable and the good events -- a bit itchy. Let's hear
:30:10. > :30:16.Talk to me about the experience on the podium. It was amazing, I sang
:30:16. > :30:19.the national anthem. The best moment in my life. Take a look at
:30:19. > :30:24.it and talk it -- talk me through what it means. Be it is crazy, I
:30:24. > :30:28.have seen pictures, I have watched people getting this week and I
:30:28. > :30:31.wanted one so badly. To finally have it around my neck, I still
:30:31. > :30:37.don't believe it. Have you been inspired by the British
:30:37. > :30:43.performances this week? 100%. Britain has done amazing. Everyone
:30:43. > :30:48.has made me think I want that. To become the first ever one to do it
:30:48. > :30:55.in taekwondo is the cherry on the cake. Can you believe it when you
:30:55. > :30:58.look at the crowd and the response. It is amazing, taekwondo is such a
:30:58. > :31:04.low-key sport. Hopefully this will increase the profile. The
:31:04. > :31:08.supporters just amazing. People will expect it in Rio now. Yeah! I
:31:08. > :31:16.will have a bit of time off first and get mentally sorted and bring
:31:16. > :31:20.on Rio. Showed the people you're medal. Congratulations. Can I say a
:31:20. > :31:24.big thank you to my coach, without him I would be nowhere near where I
:31:24. > :31:31.am today. He is a legend and he pushed me so hard. Some days you
:31:31. > :31:39.are tired and you're crying, he has dealt with all sorts. He is amazing.
:31:39. > :31:43.And also Brian Green, his dad. He is a legend as well. Well done.
:31:43. > :31:53.A flash of recognition across your face. Crying and moaning, shouting
:31:53. > :31:54.
:31:54. > :31:57.or coaches. All of those emotions! My coaches normally crying. Maybe
:31:57. > :32:03.the Iain Teaz view it gave away a couple of things that might be
:32:03. > :32:06.coming up later in the show. Martin stamper was also in action,
:32:06. > :32:13.fighting in the under 68 kg category and rose to the occasion
:32:13. > :32:17.and enjoyed great success. He got through to the semi-finals. He came
:32:17. > :32:23.up against the top speed and with a succession of spinning kicks,
:32:23. > :32:31.pushed him all the way, but sadly lost 9-6. It meant Martin went into
:32:31. > :32:41.the contest with -- for the bronze. In a tight and tense about, Martyn
:32:41. > :32:44.
:32:44. > :32:48.We are going to go to boxing next. The first women's final. We will
:32:48. > :32:51.concentrate on a good Yorkshire girl who packs as much of a punch
:32:51. > :32:55.as our jess. Nicola Adams, the Leeds-born
:32:55. > :33:00.flyweight, is the last over of three girls standing and is one win
:33:00. > :33:05.away from gold. Whatever happened today, she would get a guaranteed
:33:05. > :33:11.silver. She beat Mary, yesterday in the semi-final and today faces
:33:11. > :33:19.Cancan of China, who has beaten her in that last two world finals, the
:33:19. > :33:22.last of those in May. She was looking to take the lead role today
:33:22. > :33:27.and win the first gold to be handed and win the first gold to be handed
:33:27. > :33:31.out for boxing in the Olympic Games to women. She started in fire and -
:33:31. > :33:34.- fine style and won the first round. The crowd were right behind
:33:34. > :33:42.her. She started the second on the front foot and that is where we
:33:42. > :33:47.will joint it. -- join it. Into the second round in this
:33:47. > :33:51.women's 51 kg for Olympic flyweight final between the No. 1 and No.2
:33:51. > :34:01.seeds in the tournament. This is a rematch of the World Championship
:34:01. > :34:03.
:34:03. > :34:12.final from last year. Nicola Adams has come out blazing. We saw three
:34:12. > :34:16.phases of attack. Amazing boxing by Adams. Cancan is struggling to
:34:16. > :34:21.workout this speed and these combinations. A beautiful left jab
:34:21. > :34:25.from Adams and the decibel level rises at the ExCeL Arena in
:34:25. > :34:35.London's Docklands. It has been a sell-out crowd for every session of
:34:35. > :34:36.
:34:36. > :34:41.boxing. An historic day, the first time that women are competing in
:34:41. > :34:45.the Olympic Games for a gold medal. What a stunning right cross from
:34:45. > :34:50.Nicola Adams! Driving Cancan back towards the ropes. What an amazing
:34:50. > :34:57.shot. If that hasn't caught the eyes of the judges, I don't know
:34:57. > :35:03.what will. Amazing shot! Cancan is on the canvas. A legitimate knock-
:35:03. > :35:07.down, the count will be issued. It is only one point in Olympic boxing.
:35:07. > :35:12.As we approached the closing 30 seconds, the momentum is in favour
:35:12. > :35:17.of Nicola Adams. She is in the ascendancy. You suspect that at the
:35:17. > :35:21.close of this round, Cancan, the reigning world champion and world
:35:21. > :35:27.number one, is going to have a significant deficit to try to claw
:35:27. > :35:36.back. Adams is content to box on the back foot and use that sublime
:35:36. > :35:41.footwork that we all know she She can't afford to get as excited
:35:41. > :35:49.as we are. She has to keep her discipline and keep her hands high.
:35:49. > :35:53.This is a brilliant performance by Adams. She needs to keep it up.
:35:53. > :36:01.end to the second round. Nicola Adams has extended her advantage.
:36:01. > :36:05.It now stands at five. 9-4 after two rounds of boxing. Fan knocked
:36:05. > :36:10.down but Nicola well in control. She won the third round and
:36:10. > :36:20.continued to impress. Going into the fourth and final round, she was
:36:20. > :36:22.
:36:22. > :36:32.As we move into the fourth and final round of this women's 51 kg
:36:32. > :36:37.flyweight final. Only two minutes of boxing stand between Nicola
:36:37. > :36:47.Adams and Olympic immortality. She is leading the reigning and three-
:36:47. > :36:50.
:36:50. > :36:54.time World Championship gold Unless Cancan can produce a punch
:36:54. > :36:58.to bring about to finish and but Adams on the canvas and keep her
:36:58. > :37:04.there for 10 seconds, one suspects that Nicola Adams is on her way to
:37:04. > :37:11.Olympic gold. Concentration will be absolutely crucial. She doesn't
:37:11. > :37:16.want to let the occasion get to her. She will have to stay in the moment.
:37:16. > :37:22.She will not want to be thinking about the outcome. Her focus will
:37:22. > :37:26.remain on the task at hand. This is absolutely admirable discipline.
:37:26. > :37:31.She knows she has a comfortable lead, but she still maintains a
:37:31. > :37:37.very tight guard. She is picking her shots. Another tremendous right
:37:37. > :37:43.hand as she moves forward. She is not being complacent. She knows
:37:43. > :37:50.that Cancan is a danger until the last bell. Nicola Adams began
:37:50. > :37:55.boxing at the age of 12. She struggled to find opponents. Her
:37:55. > :37:59.mum took her down to an after- school club in Leeds. Nicola was
:37:59. > :38:05.running around and Dunn done it to her mother, she got inside a boxing
:38:05. > :38:09.ring and tried it out. It was there that her talent was first
:38:09. > :38:14.discovered. She is now on the cusp of claiming the first ever women's
:38:15. > :38:24.Olympic boxing gold medal. Just seconds away. The crowd begin to
:38:25. > :38:25.
:38:25. > :38:29.count it down by clapping their hands and stomping their feet. As
:38:29. > :38:38.the closing bell sounds, Nicola Adams produces a fast fisted flurry
:38:38. > :38:43.just underline her superiority. Now the celebrations begin in earnest
:38:43. > :38:48.because there's no doubt in that blue corner, in the Great Britain
:38:48. > :38:58.corner, that Nicola Adams has just made history. Ladies and
:38:58. > :38:58.
:38:58. > :39:04.gentlemen... The winner by a score of 16 points to seven, and Olympic
:39:04. > :39:12.champion, in the blue corner, representing Great Britain, Nicola
:39:12. > :39:18.Adams! Nicola Adams of Great Britain has just made sporting
:39:18. > :39:24.history. She is the first Olympic boxing champion in history in the
:39:24. > :39:29.women's tournament. Nicola Adams is the Olympic champion. It is like a
:39:29. > :39:34.dream come true. I have wanted this all my life. To have finally done
:39:34. > :39:39.it, I'm finally here, with all of this support, it has really made my
:39:39. > :39:44.day. I would like to thank all of the supporters here, all of the
:39:44. > :39:47.supporters back home. I am bringing that gold medal back to Leeds.
:39:47. > :39:54.Surely you will get that medal, what will it be like?
:39:54. > :40:02.absolutely amazing. To have a flag lifted, I can't wait. I'm so happy
:40:02. > :40:12.and overwhelmed. Well done. Gold medallist and Olympic champion,
:40:12. > :40:16.
:40:16. > :40:23.Nicola Adams can barely contain her joy as she makes history by
:40:23. > :40:31.becoming the first women's Olympic boxing champion. What better place
:40:31. > :40:36.to do it than before her home crowd in London at the Games of the 30th
:40:36. > :40:41.Olympiad. STUDIO: Another Yorkshire girl.
:40:41. > :40:45.is incredible. She is such a lovely girl. She trains really hard in
:40:45. > :40:50.Sheffield so it is great to see her do well. She has spent a lot of
:40:50. > :40:55.time in Sheffield. A lot of people want to own a little bit of fur.
:40:55. > :40:59.What she will do for women's boxing will be fantastic. It has been a
:40:59. > :41:02.big success and some people were sceptical. Because? They didn't
:41:03. > :41:09.know whether or not women should be on the programme, the boxing
:41:09. > :41:13.programme. Why not? I would not like to fight her! Technically the
:41:13. > :41:17.women have proven how good they are. You were there today. In it was
:41:17. > :41:22.awesome. There were three great fights, I will not discuss what
:41:22. > :41:27.happened after this. She beat her up, the Chinese girl, the number
:41:27. > :41:31.one. For the other people she should possibly think of the Irish
:41:31. > :41:36.fans because the place was at least three-quarters full of Irish men
:41:36. > :41:41.and women. Along with maybe a quarter Britain. Hopefully you guys
:41:41. > :41:46.are getting along quite well right now. Just fine. You quite liked the
:41:46. > :41:51.women's boxing, I understand. not? We are one of the fuse sports,
:41:51. > :41:56.in tennis, that has equal prize money. That sets a great example.
:41:56. > :41:59.I'm assuming that in the next Olympics, you will have even more
:41:59. > :42:05.divisions for women and you will see bigger and better things and
:42:05. > :42:08.hopefully the women boxers... She is a star. There's a potential to
:42:08. > :42:13.turn professional because in America there's a professional
:42:13. > :42:18.circuit. She might want to keep on the Olympics until Rio. How well
:42:18. > :42:23.her life changed? A lot. Experiencing the past few days
:42:23. > :42:25.after competing, it is madness. She will enjoy every minute of it. It
:42:25. > :42:29.will be great for her to get back home and see her family and
:42:29. > :42:37.celebrate. I'm sure you would like to see this. We did a Yorkshire
:42:37. > :42:41.table the other day and it has improved. If Yorkshire were a
:42:41. > :42:43.nation, and I say this with a little bit of interest as a
:42:43. > :42:49.little bit of interest as a Yorkshire girl, Yorkshire would be
:42:49. > :42:53.11th. A few people today have told me that perhaps Gloucestershire,
:42:53. > :42:56.because they have done very well in equestrian, should also have a
:42:56. > :43:00.table. We can't do it for every region, but there must be something
:43:00. > :43:05.region, but there must be something in the water. Pudding! Quite
:43:05. > :43:10.possibly. I'm very happy with that statistic because I'm working for
:43:10. > :43:19.on Australian Channel nine. Every day I go in and see 400 very, very
:43:19. > :43:21.sad Aussies. I pulled up this statistic the other day about them
:43:22. > :43:26.being behind the sporting powerhouse of Yorkshire and they
:43:26. > :43:31.are very upset. But they are taking it gracefully, for once. At really?
:43:31. > :43:37.Let's do one more of these. It is your turn to go up and move the
:43:37. > :43:42.arrow. And no problem. Nicola Adams's gold medal takes us to a
:43:42. > :43:47.total of 24 gold medals. The record was 19 from Beijing. We passed that
:43:47. > :43:56.a while ago. 24 today. If you had to make a prediction now, what
:43:56. > :44:00.would you say? I think we will go up to 28. OK. Come back and join us.
:44:00. > :44:05.Thank you is so much for coming in. You are massively in demand and
:44:06. > :44:08.having some of your time has been wonderful. Gold fingernails.
:44:08. > :44:12.thought you are going to say have you noticed how tightly she is
:44:12. > :44:17.gripping the medal! Tell us what you are saying about the
:44:17. > :44:21.fingernails. I literally did not want to have anything gold before
:44:21. > :44:27.these games. I didn't want to pay my nails gold, but now I can relax
:44:27. > :44:33.and enjoy it. Give us a close-up. You can wear those for at least the
:44:33. > :44:38.next four years. Tel Rolette to send that bright colour watch! --
:44:38. > :44:43.Rolette. A gold wedding dress, anything! Could like with ever
:44:43. > :44:47.think and enjoy your time off. Staying with the Queens of the ring,
:44:47. > :44:51.Ireland's Katie Taylor had the expectations of a whole country on
:44:51. > :44:54.her shoulders. She is their big gold medal hope of the Games and
:44:54. > :45:00.after qualifying for today's lightweight final, she was also
:45:00. > :45:05.favourite to win gold. Among the gathering green army desperate she
:45:05. > :45:15.would win was Dara O'Briain, a resident of the same town Katie
:45:15. > :45:15.
:45:15. > :45:19.hails from. This is his special and There is a saying in Irish, that
:45:19. > :45:25.which is rare is wonderful, and four Olympic medals, that tends to
:45:25. > :45:29.apply. But not this year. In the general gold rush of Team GB,
:45:29. > :45:34.Ireland is about to win five this year, which is the greatest we have
:45:34. > :45:40.every down, tying with 1956 in Melbourne. Even more rare and
:45:40. > :45:50.beautiful than that, is it lies in the hands of a genuine world-class
:45:50. > :46:03.
:46:03. > :46:06.For the last four years, Katie Taylor has been a her world
:46:06. > :46:10.champion in the weight division, but she is widely regarded as the
:46:10. > :46:14.best pound-for-pound boxer in the sport. Women's boxing is a new
:46:14. > :46:19.sport, with the first Olympics, and in need somebody good as Katie
:46:19. > :46:25.Taylor to establish it. Katie is from the same small town from where
:46:25. > :46:29.I'm from, so she's not only fighting for Ireland, she is
:46:29. > :46:33.fighting for County Wicklow, but she is also fighting for the future
:46:33. > :46:39.of the sport. So if you are wearing green, this is the hottest ticket
:46:39. > :46:46.in the Olympics. Joining me it is noted, the flyweight, Ed Byrne.
:46:46. > :46:49.Have you been following the boxing? Religiously. Why are the weaknesses
:46:49. > :46:54.of the woman Katie Taylor is fighting today? A I would say it
:46:54. > :47:02.would be her face. By that will be proven to be a weak point. Luckily
:47:02. > :47:12.the padding will save her. I am not saying this out of the position of
:47:12. > :47:24.
:47:24. > :47:29.superiority,, but she is winning it. Come on, there you go. Thanks for
:47:29. > :47:36.coming along. Now the women's 60 kilogram lightweight final in the
:47:36. > :47:40.boxing tournament is under way. Katie Taylor, wearing red, with the
:47:40. > :47:50.orthodox stance, when she takes to the boxing ring to demonstrate her
:47:50. > :48:00.vast array of skills, the entire nation comes to a standstill.
:48:00. > :48:01.
:48:01. > :48:11.the combination in! Break it up, Very tight. The at was any bodies
:48:11. > :48:22.
:48:22. > :48:27.Come on, Katie! The good left hand from Ochigava or was followed by
:48:27. > :48:32.Katie Taylor's impersonation of the Ali shuffle. As we stand here on
:48:32. > :48:42.this historic women's Olympic boxing finals, how many youngsters
:48:42. > :48:45.
:48:45. > :48:49.will take inspiration from these And for the first time in the
:48:49. > :48:59.course of the Olympic tournament, the No. 1 seed, Katie Taylor, is
:48:59. > :49:09.trailing. One punch down. What a cracking right cross. Following a
:49:09. > :49:09.
:49:09. > :49:14.blazing left jab. Come on! Come on! A cracking combination again.
:49:14. > :49:18.in stronger now, certainly. He much better by Taylor. In and out
:49:18. > :49:23.without getting caught on the counter. This is her boxing, this
:49:23. > :49:32.is where she is at home. And this is what she needs to do to overcome
:49:32. > :49:38.Archie gave or -- Ochigava and her account of boxing style. -- account
:49:38. > :49:46.of boxing style. Yes! Look at the reaction of the Irish fans in
:49:46. > :49:56.attendance. And what that signify is as well. Two more minutes,
:49:56. > :49:57.
:49:57. > :50:01.Katie! Come on! Jesus, the place erupted. I cannot call it. As we
:50:01. > :50:05.begin the 4th and final round. The tactics will change from Ochigava,
:50:05. > :50:10.because she will have to take the contest from Taylor, but her
:50:10. > :50:17.schoolwork is sublime. Staying out of harm's way but she will have to
:50:17. > :50:22.concentrate on her own boxing. Katie needs to remain concentrated,
:50:22. > :50:26.but she catches Ochigava or with a flying left hook. Slightly off-
:50:26. > :50:33.balance. Managing to hold the clinch. By think the Russian has
:50:33. > :50:40.have the best of this round. Come on, Katie! She needs to do
:50:40. > :50:47.something in this final 30 seconds. And not that. The crowd are
:50:47. > :50:51.counting down the final seconds. And that the final bell, Katie
:50:51. > :50:56.Taylor beats her chest in celebration and receives a hard of
:50:56. > :51:03.congratulations from her coaching team. Jesus, this could go either

:52:03. > :52:09.Brilliant stuff. You were there, soaking it up, digging down into
:52:09. > :52:14.your Irish roots. Definitely. I felt part Irish and half of the
:52:14. > :52:20.country were there. Unbelievable support for Katie Taylor, Barry
:52:20. > :52:23.Maginn there, and the crowd was totally in to it. -- Barry McGuigan.
:52:23. > :52:28.That was an extremely close fight that could have gone either way, so
:52:28. > :52:34.in this case the crowd might have influenced the judges a little bit
:52:34. > :52:38.because from what I understand, it wasn't her best day. A little bit
:52:38. > :52:42.more tense than she might have been put she came through it. And
:52:42. > :52:47.exactly the kind of example as to why it it is on the Olympic agenda.
:52:47. > :52:51.She is a repeat world champion. If your discipline was not on the
:52:51. > :52:55.programme for a woman, but it was for a man, you would be aggrieved.
:52:55. > :52:59.I think these days they think they should be an equal balance, and I
:52:59. > :53:05.think she probably trains as hard as any man and fights as well, so
:53:05. > :53:09.why shouldn't she? Her dad was a box and he trains her. The home
:53:09. > :53:14.town scenes in County Wicklow, you could see the tension when they
:53:14. > :53:23.finally realised she had the gold. The first gold medal for Ireland
:53:23. > :53:28.since 1996 in Atlanta or. And for a whole nation to be rejoicing.
:53:29. > :53:33.an American Irishman, why wasn't she wearing green? All the boxers
:53:33. > :53:37.wear red and blue. We were discussing that today. There is the
:53:37. > :53:41.Irish House in London, a massive Irish community in London and all
:53:41. > :53:44.over the UK. Pockets of the community celebrating everywhere.
:53:44. > :53:49.They have to wear red and blue and it would be nice to wear the
:53:49. > :53:54.national colours and a rare -- where those head protectors.
:53:54. > :53:57.Ireland is going through a tough time, so for a country it is pretty
:53:57. > :54:04.important to win a gold medal, so that is really going to spur them
:54:04. > :54:08.on. Boxing is struggling in general, I think. The women, for the first
:54:08. > :54:13.time are even in the Olympics, so I think this is a great Forum for
:54:13. > :54:18.boxing to try and get back in the mix. I think it has given it to
:54:18. > :54:22.boost. Olympic boxing is special. To have the women on to the
:54:22. > :54:28.programme has given it a bit of a lift. Yes, I think it opens at out
:54:28. > :54:32.to more people to play and watch. And as a former fitness all women,
:54:32. > :54:38.it is a fantastic way to keep fit. I believe the first time ever that
:54:38. > :54:43.the US did not get any medal in the men's, so thankfully you can go to
:54:43. > :54:46.the next bout, because we are going to show all of that. We are not
:54:46. > :54:51.showing that tonight, but you can tell us about that Seventeen-year-
:54:52. > :54:58.old. She is incredible. She was a middleweight, the Third Division,
:54:58. > :55:04.and she dominated the and she has, like Nicola, she has a personality,
:55:04. > :55:08.so I hope for great things. Good to have you as our women's boxing
:55:08. > :55:13.correspondent. From the physicality of boxing to horses dancing to
:55:13. > :55:17.music, that is what the Olympics is about, variety. Great Britain has
:55:17. > :55:20.excelled on horseback and today was the individual dressage final. Our

:55:32. > :55:35.individual members -- medals. two days ago, Carl Hester, Laura
:55:35. > :55:39.Bechtolsheimer and Charlotte Dujardin won our first ever Olympic

:56:08. > :56:17.feel that they are dancing together to the music. You certainly do.
:56:17. > :56:25.Fantastic! That is one of the best tests I have ever seen from a
:56:25. > :56:32.British rider in freestyle, and she knows it! 84.33. She goes into the
:56:32. > :56:36.lead. So, a happy Laura was in the gold medal position with three
:56:36. > :56:43.riders to go up. Two of them were her team-mate, and first up was
:56:43. > :56:48.Carl Hester on Utopia. A small loss of rhythm coming out. So slight
:56:48. > :56:56.errors cost him dearly and left him in third. And after an impressive
:56:57. > :57:01.round by the Dutch rider put her into the lead it was all about what
:57:01. > :57:07.27-year-old Charlotte Dujardin, riding her horse could do. Her
:57:07. > :57:12.rousing patriotic choice setting the tone. It there was ever time to

:58:28. > :58:29.
:58:29. > :58:34.So no, Charlotte, who 18 months ago he and never ridden in a grant Prix
:58:34. > :58:39.event secured a British first, double Olympic gold -- grand prix
:58:39. > :58:45.event. Laura Bechtolsheimer took bronze, and Carl Hester finished
:58:45. > :58:49.5th overall, topping off what has been the equestrian team for Great
:58:49. > :58:54.Britain's most successful Olympics ever. And the thing I really love
:58:54. > :58:57.about that story, Carl Hester was competed on the same team, and he
:58:57. > :59:04.was against a in the individual and he gave her that horse and said
:59:04. > :59:07.that the horse was like blind or And sea search. There's growing
:59:07. > :59:17.concern for 59-year-old Gregory Last seen at 11am yesterday morning
:59:17. > :59:22.
:59:22. > :59:29.I saw him today, and I did not give him the time of day. He was in the
:59:29. > :59:33.stadium. He sends his love. There are horse and rider have a
:59:33. > :59:39.different relationship. The rider is in charge of the horse, and he
:59:39. > :59:42.is waiting outside. How long has that grudge been going on? When you
:59:43. > :59:50.are part of a team, you do you think she would not normally do.
:59:50. > :59:55.And if he is old enough to make a decision... You used to lend
:59:55. > :00:05.rackets to Jimmy Connors, didn't you? I am staying out of this one.
:00:05. > :00:11.
:00:11. > :00:18.He it is time for another blast of I am not going to trot on. Take it
:00:18. > :00:22.to 25 on the board. Very good. We are getting there. We already got a
:00:22. > :00:27.hint that was coming early on after the taekwondo, but we didn't know
:00:27. > :00:37.where they would be coming from. A great win for Charlotte and a
:00:37. > :00:40.
:00:40. > :00:44.bronze to Laura. News today it of a First to go, Langehanenberg with
:00:44. > :00:52.Damon Hill. We joined Damon Hill at the top of the circuit going into
:00:52. > :00:57.the right-hander. Dropping downhill to the hairpin left hander. Damon
:00:57. > :01:01.has driven an absolutely immaculate race. Approaching the end of the
:01:01. > :01:06.last lap. Damon Hill Exits the chicane and I have to stop because
:01:06. > :01:13.I've got a lump in my throat. Hill has put down a very, very
:01:13. > :01:17.strong challenge. I know that the Germans have got a very wicked
:01:17. > :01:23.sense of humour, but where do you think Damon Hill for a horse came
:01:23. > :01:28.from? Do I think he's scrubbed up rather well. If there's any
:01:28. > :01:34.confusion at home, we've sorted it out. That is Damon Hill, the
:01:34. > :01:42.Formula One driver, and that is Damon Hill fossils. What about
:01:42. > :01:47.Lewis Hamilton? You got horses. Thankfully at this time in my life
:01:47. > :01:50.I'm waiting to pick the right course. I am going to see what the
:01:50. > :01:54.great British team and the Germans, who seem to have the market on the
:01:55. > :01:59.top horses, they are going to start selling them after the Olympics.
:01:59. > :02:04.With the money I'm making from BBC late night, I am going to buy these
:02:04. > :02:08.great causes. Who will ride them? My daughter. She will be in the
:02:08. > :02:13.Olympics in eight years. You can't be serious, that would be a good
:02:13. > :02:19.name. Right! And the Serpentine is normally the preserve of voting
:02:19. > :02:23.Taurus and ducks, but today it hosted the brutal race over 10
:02:23. > :02:27.kilometre or open water. Keri-Anne Payne had great hopes for Great
:02:27. > :02:35.Britain. She is the world champion and silver medallist from Beijing.
:02:35. > :02:45.She -- could she bring GB's first swimming gold medal of the game's?
:02:45. > :02:53.
:02:53. > :02:56.Rowing, sailing, cycling, equestrian, canoeing, we've won so
:02:56. > :03:05.many gold medals in a lot of different sports. Swimming has got
:03:05. > :03:13.one more chance. Bring on the pain. Keri-Anne Payne is in slot No. 15.
:03:13. > :03:18.She has a very, very clear tactic. She is going for it. She has gone
:03:18. > :03:22.with the Hungarian. Farepak looks like it's trying to hold on to
:03:22. > :03:27.Keri-Anne Payne. I remember watching her in Beijing when she
:03:27. > :03:31.won silver. There was hardly a soul there apart from in the grandstand.
:03:31. > :03:38.It is completely different here, but it is like the slowest Mexican
:03:38. > :03:44.wave coming down. With pretty much 30 minutes gone, there will be
:03:44. > :03:52.almost a quarter of the race gone. About 2,500 metres done. 7,500 to
:03:52. > :03:57.go. 10,000m. That is six laps of the Serpentine in Hyde Park. They
:03:57. > :04:01.can stop for a drink or some food at the feeding station. But
:04:01. > :04:07.basically this is non-stop action. Keri-Anne Payne is there or
:04:07. > :04:12.thereabouts. Looking good at the moment. Brilliant to see so many of
:04:12. > :04:17.the GB swimmers here coming to support Keri-Anne Payne. In the
:04:17. > :04:22.middle, who Wells, the Prime Minister! To just over half way.
:04:22. > :04:29.She is still in there but she is in the pack, not her normal place. She
:04:29. > :04:33.is usually leading. She has gone now. I have to say it is not
:04:33. > :04:37.looking good for Keri-Anne Payne. She is in fourth or 5th, but
:04:37. > :04:41.there's quite a gap to the leader. Come on! She is Delyn fourth
:04:41. > :04:51.position. Just off the pace for the gold medal, but may be in
:04:51. > :04:54.
:04:54. > :05:00.The Hungarian gets it. The Silver has gone to Andersson of the USA.
:05:00. > :05:05.Bronze has gone to Italy. Keri-Anne Payne in fourth position. After
:05:05. > :05:09.10,000m, nearly two hours of swimming, so close! I just made a
:05:09. > :05:14.really bad decision on the third lap when I went in to feed. It all
:05:14. > :05:19.went wrong and I had to work really hard to get back to where I was and
:05:19. > :05:25.I worked too hard. It is not quite what I wanted for all of these
:05:25. > :05:31.people and my family and everybody that has worked really hard for me.
:05:32. > :05:36.When I go away, my dream was to win an Olympic medal, which I have done
:05:36. > :05:41.in Beijing. I can't be too upset, I have done what I set out today. I
:05:41. > :05:49.wanted to win the gold medal, but I will always be a Olympic silver
:05:49. > :05:54.medallist and world champion. doesn't go right for everybody.
:05:54. > :06:01.is sad. Everybody wants to win. There's only three medals at all
:06:01. > :06:07.there. She had high hopes, being the world champion. We used to have
:06:07. > :06:13.a world of sports in the States and I, along with many people, got
:06:13. > :06:17.sucked into that race. The crowds looked incredible. That is a brutal
:06:17. > :06:22.way to lose, by about a second for the bronze and three or four
:06:22. > :06:27.seconds to gold after two hours of swimming. It can come down to the
:06:28. > :06:31.finest margins. That is the beauty of sport. There's a winner and
:06:31. > :06:36.unfortunately there have to be some people, even if they do well, they
:06:36. > :06:40.don't get first. Daniel fog is going in the men's open water
:06:40. > :06:44.tomorrow. No joy for Keri-Anne Payne and no joy for the British
:06:44. > :06:48.men's hockey team either. They were aiming to reach the final for the
:06:48. > :06:53.first time since their gold medal win over Germany in 1988, but they
:06:53. > :06:56.were soundly beaten by the Netherlands. The final score was 9-
:06:56. > :07:01.2. In the second half their heads dropped a little and they conceded
:07:01. > :07:06.three goals in around five minutes. But they will play Australia for
:07:06. > :07:10.the bronze medal on Saturday. We wish them the best. The Dutch are
:07:10. > :07:20.much fancied to take both gold medals in this tournament. Bad news
:07:20. > :07:24.
:07:24. > :07:30.for hockey and more headline makers The women's football final was won
:07:30. > :07:34.for a third time by the USA. They beat Japan 2-1. Carly Lloyd scored
:07:35. > :07:39.both goals in front of 80,000 at Wembley, a record for the women's
:07:39. > :07:49.final. The men's beach volleyball gold

:08:27. > :08:31.Gerat Britain's group and rhythmic gymnasts were in action. They had a
:08:32. > :08:38.huge battle to get here. They fought their own governing body
:08:38. > :08:41.odour confusion after their requirements. They moved from all
:08:41. > :08:45.areas from the UK so they could train together. They received an
:08:45. > :08:49.incredible response from the Wembley crowd. They will not get a
:08:49. > :08:54.medal, but it is the taking part that counts. Well done, girls, and
:08:54. > :08:59.good luck tomorrow. Let's get back to tonight track and
:08:59. > :09:04.field. The 800m next. Britain last won gold in 1980 with Steve Ovett
:09:04. > :09:10.beating Seb Coe. Tonight 24-year- old Andrew Osagie lined up for
:09:10. > :09:20.Britain in the race of his life. David Rudisha was the hot favourite
:09:20. > :09:25.
:09:25. > :09:30.and world record holder. Steve Cram race of his life. It is against the
:09:30. > :09:34.world record holder and world champion, who is now attempting to
:09:34. > :09:44.become the Olympic champion, David Rudisha. He loves to be at the
:09:44. > :09:51.
:09:51. > :09:57.everybody thought would happen. Rudisha in the front. And he is
:09:57. > :10:04.stretching it out. A fast opening 300 metres. He is looking for a
:10:04. > :10:10.decent, solid 52nd time. Kaki is following him. The medals may be
:10:10. > :10:14.decided by the people that don't follow. A phenomenal opening and he
:10:14. > :10:22.knows about performances. There might have been world records set
:10:22. > :10:28.in the Olympic Games at the 800m. Osagie was through in 50 seconds.
:10:28. > :10:33.David Rudisha, the great athlete that he has. They have gone with
:10:33. > :10:39.him down the back straight. Can they hang on? Look at this. That is
:10:39. > :10:45.really, really quick through 600. Amos moves into second place. Kitum
:10:45. > :10:49.is moving into third. Osagie trying to get forward. It is all about
:10:49. > :10:55.David Rudisha. Already the world record holder, already the world
:10:55. > :11:05.champion. Striding away to become the Olympic champion. How quick
:11:05. > :11:15.
:11:15. > :11:22.will it be? World record! greatest-ever 800m race anyone has
:11:22. > :11:32.ever run, that I've ever seen: obviously. What a privilege to be
:11:32. > :11:38.
:11:38. > :11:43.here. That is a world record. Seb Coe beat the world record all
:11:43. > :11:47.those years ago. A personal best fit Timothy Kitum. Andrew Osagie,
:11:47. > :11:53.1:43.77, a new personal best for 1:43.77, a new personal best for
:11:53. > :11:59.him. I'm very happy. This is the moment I've been waiting for for a
:11:59. > :12:05.very long time. To come here and break the world record is something
:12:05. > :12:10.unbelievable. What a fantastic race. What an elegant runner as well. The
:12:10. > :12:16.first world record. The performance of the athletics track so far. It
:12:16. > :12:20.was an unbelievable race. The times and the rest of the race were
:12:20. > :12:24.unbelievable. The fastest times for each position. A few people said
:12:24. > :12:29.the conditions were lovely, there was not much wind, and ice
:12:29. > :12:35.temperature. People were thinking about the 200m. A you need the
:12:35. > :12:40.right guys. The only thing I'm a little sad about is that what was
:12:40. > :12:45.basically the best performance we've had so far is going to get
:12:45. > :12:51.overshadows by Usain Bolt. -- overshadowed. Athletics purists
:12:51. > :12:58.will probably... Poor of the headlines tomorrow will be about
:12:58. > :13:03.Usain Bolt. Not if Seb Coe has a thing to say about it! I think it
:13:03. > :13:10.was pretty gutsy. The guy came out and said I will set a world record
:13:10. > :13:15.and he did. Andrew had a fantastic race. His time is the four fastest
:13:15. > :13:18.ever, behind Elliott, Seb Coe and Steve Cram. He smashed his personal
:13:18. > :13:27.best. Is there a dearth of middle- distance runners? Doesn't
:13:27. > :13:32.disappoint you? These things are cyclical. All sports have to go out
:13:32. > :13:40.and find their future champions. You're right, it has been a good
:13:40. > :13:44.few years... 20 since we have had a man in the 800m final. Exactly. He
:13:44. > :13:51.ran a personal best, there is nothing more you can do. It was the
:13:51. > :13:59.best race ever. Doesn't he need a rivalry? They always help. Maybe if
:13:59. > :14:03.somebody was coming up behind him. Another story is his coach. He was
:14:03. > :14:08.a missionary who went over to Kenya and met Brendan Foster's brother
:14:08. > :14:15.and he suggested he should start coaching kids. That is how they met.
:14:15. > :14:20.A nice story. I thought it was! can go to Newcastle and find some
:14:21. > :14:25.runners. Your final event, the decathlon, 1,500m, you never looked
:14:26. > :14:30.like you enjoyed that. You're right. I'm glad I'm not doing it now.
:14:30. > :14:34.did it tonight because it was the final of the decathlon. Ashton
:14:34. > :14:38.Eaton, the man who broke the world record coming into this, was
:14:38. > :14:42.looking to break the Olympic record here. He is an interesting
:14:42. > :14:49.character because he only found has bought six years ago. He has done
:14:49. > :14:54.remarkably well. Been a lot of sports, every 10 years you get
:14:54. > :14:58.somebody that is the next generation. He is clearly that. He
:14:58. > :15:08.is so much better than all of the people around at the moment. Let's
:15:08. > :15:12.
:15:12. > :15:15.look at what he has done over the yes, he has got the speed. A couple
:15:15. > :15:21.of tenths of his best, but more than enough to beat the best of the
:15:22. > :15:29.world at the moment. In the long jump, just over 80 metres. His shot
:15:29. > :15:34.putter is a little funky, because he uses a technique from the 50s.
:15:34. > :15:39.The high jump was OK. But here, he is powering away in the 400 metres.
:15:39. > :15:45.That was the end of the first day. Starting today on the hurdles.
