Day 12 BBC Two: 13.00-13.45 Olympics

# Come on baby let the good times roll.

# Come on baby, let me through your soul.

MUSIC Command baby let the good

sealed with a kiss for Great Britain's golden couple, Jason and

Laura last night. What began with confident, fearless golden night in

the pool 12 days ago for Adam Peaty, it has GIB. Better and better every

day, culminating last night with the breathtaking finale with the

velodrome. Also in the diving pool and the gymnastics arena as well.

Great Britain have smashed the target of 48 medals, now sitting at

50. Now comes the relentless march to what might have been the real

target all along, 66. Of the London's games of 2012, there was a

genuine belief by the people who run British sport, that target was

achievable. It is significant because in 2012, Great Britain's

athletes in their home games at 165 medals. No home team has gone to the

next games and surpassed that total. It is on. -- 65 medals. A medal

could come in the men's 5,000m. Saturday night, Mo Farah is back

this afternoon as he goes for another distance double. Caster

Semenya, a cast-iron favourite for gold in the women's 800 meters.

Charley Hull and Katrina Mackie with a driving ambition to follow Justin

Rose in the Gulf. Round one for the women this morning. And run GIF

We will have an early track final to enjoy again. Safe bet there will be

Brazilian chums, the women's Beach Volleyball Arena vinyl. -- final.

You might want to start guzzling Coffey because the women's 100

metres hurdles final is on. This is when the team competitions come to

the boil. There is the show-jumping without the defending champions,

Great Britain. And Brazil in the semifinals of the men's football

against conjurer is. Given their women went out on the penalty shoot

out to Sweden, there are millions of fingers being crossed for Brazil.

Great Britain's gymnasts came here with a very good chance of doing

good things. But it has been much more than good, it has been

spectacular. If you think back to just before the Beijing games in

2008, Britain's gym that hadn't won a medal for 80 years. Louis Smith

got one on the pommel horse then followed it up in 2012 with four

medals. Here, seven medals if you include the gymnastic trampolining.

Two goal, two silver and three bronze. It is a ground-breaking few

days for British gymnastics. Great Britain's Max Whitlock is the

floor Olympic champion. It is an historic bronze for Amy Tinkler.

Medal, a medal after medal. Max Whitlock is now a double Olympic

champion. In Rio, Great Britain's gymnasts have enjoyed a level of

success is no one predicted. Their medal haul, a magnificent seven and

for the first time, Olympic gold. To come here to Rio and the medals we

had picked up and the viewing figures we have been getting, the

messages from people, it is great for the sport. It is a real turning

point. Everybody talks about the home games advantage and we got in

the mix and won the first team medal. The Max Whitlock wins this

bronze medal. I think it was a real surprise. That was my biggest

concern, coming in to Rio. With the pressure, could we deliver? I think

we have proved to the world, yes we can. Just rate Rio for us? 20 out of

ten. It will be hard to top with the way we have been, to replicate what

we have done here would be amazing. It is tough, but if we can do that

at the next Olympics, it would be amazing. GB have not always been the

gymnastics power they are today. I remember coming out of the Olympics

in Sydney, with a personal best, and being proud, but then thinking we

cannot compete with these guys, they are streets ahead. Go back 16 years,

we had nobody in Athens in the men's team, or the individual. 2008 was

The Games that woke the sport from its slumber. Two British teenagers

went to Beijing and one of them brought back the first Olympic

medal. Louis Smith takes a bronze at the Olympics. I remember 2008, it

was me and Louis and we didn't have a team. We had to qualify as

individual people. Since then, since Louis got his bronze medal in

Beijing, there was a belief instilled across the whole of

British gymnastics. We all thought, if Louis can do it, then we can do

it and that is the team spirit now. When you see one person winning a

medal at the Olympics, people think, I want to win one. It is a ripple

effect, it is that the camp, if one gymnasts can do it, why can't we. So

the Rio games, the most successful yet and the muddle momentum shows

little sign of slowing. Still a few years left in the guise competing

here, but we have a team of 15 to 20 pushing for this team. Without them,

we wouldn't be as good as we are. If one gets injured or one retires,

someone can take their place. Plenty of talent coming through, if you

look at the results from the junior Europeans, they picked up medals

left, right and centre. It is keeping them in the sport and

keeping them injury free. They have their role models to look up to. I

don't think we need to worry about the state of British gymnastics. I

think we absolutely have the talent to build on this and go better. So

the future is bright, the future is British gymnastics. An incredible

transformation and as all parents of small children, including myself no,

it is competitive to get your kids into gymnastics club now, such is

the demand. It is worth it, a fantastic sport and wonderful

progress made over the last few years by Great Britain. I bring you

news of the serious nature. The head of the Irish and European Olympic

committees, Patrick Hickey has been arrested in Rio over illegal ticket

sales. He is suspected of illegally passing on tickets at higher prices.

His arrest comes days after an man was caught in Rio with 800 illegal

tickets. And police are due to give a press conference about this,

around about 1:30pm your time. We will be keeping you informed.

Two happier matters and the regards, where sailing has been dominating

our agenda over the last few days as the medal started to roll in. Had

Nick Dempsey's silver and then a gold for Giles Scott in the men's

Finn. Iain Percy won the first Louis first in 2000, Ben Ainslie 13 and

now Giles has won it in style. After the drama of yesterday's

storms, there are four medal races scheduled at the sailing venue and

it promises to be a golden day for Team GB. Giles Scott did enough to

secure his gold medal two days ago out on the oceans of Copacabana. It

was an emotional moment shared with his coach. The start of the men's

heavy eight gets underway. It was a celebration of that moment, in front

of the crowds. Scott showed what has made him great, competing and

finishing the medal race in second. Giles Scott of Great Britain.

Four-time Finn world champion, it has been an incredibly long road and

an agonising wait, but now the 29-year-old world number one is

confirmed as the gold medal winner in Rio 2016. It is incredible. I am

so happy with the way I have sailed this week. That and the campaign

that we put together over the past three years, everything has been

geared towards this one moment and to be successful and put to rest all

those crucial decisions we made early on, it is fantastic. Job done.

The chance to do the same the Hannah Mills and Saskia Clark in the 470

double handed women's dinghy. They have three races to sail and if they

can extend their lead to 20 points, they can secure the gold ahead of

their race tomorrow. 20 points needed, 20 point is the difference

when they crossed the finish line in third place. It took a quick check

with their coach on the maths, and then celebration. British gold

number two in the sailing. Hannah Mills, Saskia Clark, 2016 gold

medallists? I haven't stopped smiling. I did not have Hannah down

as a cry. I know you are the best of friends, it has been five years in

the making, to share this moment before you had ashore together, what

is it like? It has been a hard few years. I have had two surgeries, and

I didn't think I would make it back. Hannah waited for me and has been an

amazing best friend and team-mate. Congratulations. In other news,

Alison Young one her race to end up eight and disappointed. Nick

Thompson couldn't improve on his sixth in the laser medal race and

Ben Saxton and Nicola Groves rounded up and Olympics that began in great

style, back in ninth. Tomorrow, it is Lady's day. A gold medal final

the Hannah Mills and Saskia Clark when they raise in front of the

beach before stepping onto the top step of the Olympic podium.

Like this gentleman here, Giles, those girls only have to cross the

line to win their gold medal and that was the situation for you

yesterday. Congratulations, what was it like crossing the line? It was a

great moments, the justification years hard graft from my coach and

I. You already knew you were the champion, you had tied it up 48

hours earlier, so what was the time-lag between that knowledge and

completing the journey? It was nice because those 48 hours are normally

the most stressful of any event we do, even more so at the Olympic

Games. To be in a situation where I could seal the deal early and slowly

take it in over the last 24 hours of the event was a very nice way to do

it. You came in here as one of the world's dominating sportsman, you

had never been beaten, apart from the episode with your rudder. But in

terms of having to do it, everyone told you you would be an Olympic

champion, but going through with it is tougher?

Yes, it is an odd situation to be in and you do interviews, but when you

go through it, it is a very different thing. You see each of

those victories and how tricky it is. It always comes down to the

weak's waiting, it is not a sure thing. To be able to pull through

and get the win was great. What was the hardest thing about it? The

start. I had a very shaky start. The chorus under the sugar Mountain was

really difficult. It was not the way you want to start an Olympic Games.

We were watching it and you were in 17th place and I was reassuring

everybody that you could get there, but you did not give yourself much

breathing room thereafter because of it. We raise ten races and to

discard the worst one, and to use the first race and get the first

court is not what you want to do. I was telling everyone about the

dynasty in the Finn class. Why do you think you have been able to

continue this through the last 16 years ago with Sir Ben Ainslie and

Iain Percy and yourself? We have been able to build on the campaign

that has gone before, ever since Percy in 2000. Everything has been a

bit of an evolution and that is the way we approach this campaign. We

look at what happened before and we want to evolve it and make it right

for the new president and me personally and we were able to do

that. And your telephone has exploded in the last couple of days?

It has a little bit. What has it been like? Loads of people have been

getting in contact with the telling me how proud they are. Obviously

being a huge event back in the UK it is great to know the support is

there. You are telling me about a move to the Bahamas, something to

look forward to. Bermuda in November and next for me is the America's Cup

with Ben Ainslie and the guys back in the UK. Yes, it is nonstop. The

America's Cup is an event that takes a lot of money and preparation, but

confidence levels as we set out onto that campaign now? Yes, for me

personally I am running at a bit of a high and the guys have been doing

a great job whilst I have been away. Hopefully we can put together the

next ten months really well and it would be so great to catch of the

Olympic gold with an America's Cup. Tell me about the feeling amongst

the other British sailors. The girls have done it as well and have the

luxury of just having to cross the line. Overall how do you think this

campaign has been for the British sailors? This week has been

fantastic. We have all been getting on so well and it has been nice

being in the hotel we are staying back and we go sailing during the

day and we come back and watch TV and watch the games and Hannah and

Nick Dempsey and the others have done fantastic work and it is great

to see the girls before the medal race as well. I am sure you will

enjoy long after we have been chatting here. Giles,

congratulations, you were the man of the moment coming in here and you

have certainly fulfilled it. Thank you. It is a big day for

women's golf today because after that stunning success for Justin

Rose, the first gold medal handed out in 112 years, it is the turn of

the women. Unlike the men, this has been a passionate venture for

women's golf. There has been an almighty scrap to get here from a

lot of the nations around the golfing world, particularly from

Korea where the update on the world rankings has been on a daily basis.

Catriona Matthew at 46 years of age is the oldest one in the entire

field, a major winner from Scotland. Charlie Hull has been setting

records ever since she turned pro at 16 and she is only 29.

We are at the 12th and going to get going and you have brought the

weather with you. I have, yes. We are going to enjoy it here. Exactly.

I have not had an accident before. So I do not need to be nervous about

being in the buggy with you? No. That was a very good shot, I'm

surprised. How many times do you play the week? About four or five.

You play more than me. Ranked amongst the top 30 in the world and

yet still only 20 years old, Charlie Hull has a chance of winning a medal

for Great Britain in the women's golf competition. How are you

looking forward to it? I am really looking forward to it and it will be

a great experience. It is a lot of fun meeting different athletes in

the Olympic Village and hopefully I can watch other sports as well. My

prediction is right. Splash. You skimmed it as well. I am worried we

have not got enough balls for today. I would help you, but I don't want

to get wet. Golf has not been played at the Olympics for over a hundred

years and whilst there has been controversy in the men's

competition, it is not the same for the women. I love being British and

English and it makes me proud to play. Good shot. She says between

gritted teeth. Don't you dare. I told you! Nice one. To stand up on

that podium with a gold medal, can you imagine what that would be like?

I think it would be brilliant. I do not want to think too far ahead. You

just take everything in your stride. Yes, it is just another event and I

love golf and it is sport. I don't want to see that at the Olympics. In

America the Greens are a lot faster. I had a great time. Thank you.

Gamely taking on Charlie Hull at her home course in war in Bedfordshire.

Let's have a quick word with Kat Downes who is there at the course.

It was so special to see Justin Rose coming home with that gold medal.

Tell us about the quality and the depth of the women's field that we

will be seeing to stop it is an absolutely scorching day down here

at Marathon envy and the conditions are perfect for some really good

scoring golf. The competition will be as hot as the weather I predict

over the course of the next few days. We have a full strength field

for the golf. Five of the top ten men did not turn up because they

were concerned about the zika virus. No such worries for the women and

the Koreans are the ones to watch with five of the world's top ten

players, including the seven times major champion Inbee Park, who set

off a few moments ago. There is also Lydia Ko, the world number one aged

just 19. She was the youngest ever female number one and major winner.

She would love to have another record and become the first female

Olympic gold medal champion in 116 years. She goes out alongside

Charlie Howell, the last group of the day at about ten past three in

the UK. All eyes will be on Charlie Howell as she goes out alongside the

world number one. Charlie Hull and Catriona Matthew have their work cut

out against a top-class field. But they have a secret weapon. Justin

Rose has left his course notes and his yardage book full of tips about

how to tackle this chorus for them to take in, so maybe that will give

them a bit of an edge. That is teamwork, and it is good to see that

being passed on. In terms of Justin's win, I know there was

discussion about the uptake in the men's side of it and how that would

affect future participation, but the fact he was such a passionate

champion and a promoter of the game, how well do you think that will play

in the IOC's mind is going forward? It was so well received and it was

so great to see Justin Rose a cheerleader of the Olympic golf,

battling Henrik Stenson all down to the last round of golf. There was

talk golf could be scrapped from the programme if there had not been much

interest, but the galleries were packed, the stands were heaving,

12,000 spectators bought tickets, which was a full house to see the

final round. Here in the women's, the galleries are just starting to

pick up as people come to Seabrook Henderson from Canada, aged 18, the

world's number three. A couple of Brazilian players have gone off with

a huge shout, so the women are trying to emulate what the men did a

few days ago and are trying to fill up the chorus here. I am sure you

will have a brilliant seat for the next four days.

Charlie Hull is out in the last of the trios with Lydia Ko and Catriona

Matthew 's is out at about 11:41am this morning. Last night there were

three very strong women in strong contention for great Britain in the

velodrome. Away they go, the two riders into

the gold and silver medal position. Laura Trott needs to dig in. She

crosses the line second-fastest. Laura Trott is leading this women's

omnium. Four races down, two to go. Here we go, Laura Trott on her

flying lap. She is going really quickly here. This is a stupendous

ride from Laura Trott. 13.7.08, stunning from Laura Trott. They are

trying to get the best possible position. Lauren Ellis has decided

to go for a long one and is at the front of proceedings. Sarah Hammer

is on her wheel. One lap to go in the points race and Sarah Hammer

tries to sprint away. Right on her wheel is Laura Trott. They come up

towards the line and Sarah Hammer comes first over the line and Laura

Trott finishes now, it is a special Olympic moment for Great Britain.

Laura Trott is Britain's most successful female Olympian of all

time. A record fourth gold medal. She did it in style. I am so happy,

I am so glad I was able to put it together. Can Katie March and finish

of this bronze medal race? And now she makes her move down the

straight, it is looking good for her. As she got the legs to hold her

off? Can she get it on the line? I think she can. She threw her bike at

the line at the last moment. Brilliant from Katie, she claims the

bronze medal in the women's sprint in straight rides. Becky James of

Great Britain is high on the track, swooping down, the sprint is on, 200

metres to go. Becky James is starting to close the gap. Round the

back and into the finishing straight and Becky James has got the speed to

do it, oh, it was so close there was nothing in it between the pair of

them. Becky James wins a second silver medal. I would never have

expected to come in and win two silvers, so I am over the moon.

Great stuff from all of the members of the team in action. Katie's

bronze meant all 11 competitors on the track for Great Britain won a

medal. That is a first. But all eyes thereafter work on Jason Kenny,

having seen his fiancee become the greatest British female athlete, the

pressure was on for him. This is the last event. It was so dramatic

because we had two in effect false starts. They had overtaken them

leading bike, which was not allowed. It looked as though Jason or the

Malaysian might have overtaken the bike and there was a suggestion that

could have been a disqualification. But there was no disqualification

for Jason Kenny. Could he make history like his fiancee?

champion, but going through with it is tougher?

Let's hope it is a worthy final at the third time of asking. Jason

Kenney in third at the moment. I think he was very lucky to get away

with that one. We need to look at tactics and what they wanted to do.

It was to rush Jason Kenney from the back of the pack and try and get him

caught up in traffic. He knows that now. Cool as a cucumber, he could

see them coming round the outside I knew he wanted to stop them. They

were desperate to give themselves the best fighting chance. They were

all a little too keen to get the sprint underway and put the pressure

on the British rider early. Jason Kenney going for a British record

equalling sixth gold medal here. One lap to go before the bike pulls off.

We are seeing a repeat. Gaps being left. This time Kenny has left a gap

so he can deal with the acceleration. This is a clean one.

We are underway and Jason Kenney is in second place. Kenny following the

wheel in front. One lap to go. Jason Kenney has got work to do. He has a

gap to close. He is closing it. Time is against Kenny now. Into the

finishing straight towards the line. Jason Kenney's got it! What a ride.

A golden hat-trick in Rio for Jason Kenney. A record equalling sixth

gold medal and if that's not worth a standing ovation, I don't know what

is. The race was finished at the third time of asking and it was

worth waiting for. Chris Hoy has company, Jason Kenney has a six

Olympic Golf Course they did everything they could, threw

everything at him to try and get that one. He left himself some room

to accelerate and he came at the leader at exactly the right moment.

He knew he had that 11. It was nerve shredding stuff with those two false

starts in the race. They tried to raise from the front

and stay there, but they couldn't deal with the pace of Jason Kenney.

What an achievement, it is a landmark moment in British Olympic

history. Emotion all round. They say Jason isn't an emotional character,

but look at that, he leaves it out there on the track. He certainly

makes us emotional. What I need to think the Laura Trott and Jason

Kenney. There his Laura who has won gold herself tonight. They have ten

gold medals between the pair of them. Our little daydream about

Britain's power couple has come to pass. Hello magazine will be on the

phone shortly. No British woman has won more gold medals than Laura and

there she is in joint sixth. There is Jason Kenney, level right now

with Sir Chris Hoy. And Sir Bradley Wiggins said he could win 12 by the

end of 2024, if he can be bothered to get out of bed after these

Olympics. I think famously late has been Jason over the years, but not

here, he was just in time in that one. History has been made all over

the place and it was, at last night in the diving pool. The main man and

the standard-bearer for British diving over the last few years has

been Tom Daley. We have seen him set new benchmarks in this sport in the

last ten years, since he was a teenager. But Jack Laugher, has been

creeping up on the rails. And he was back in the pool, scraping into his

individual final and was diving into a blue pool, not a green one.

The culmination of the three metre springboard for men, and Jack

Laugher made it through by the skin of his teeth. Six rounds of dives.

It is good from Jack. Marginally short of vertical. I think you will

come away with eight. Yuan, of China. I know him as a

platform diver, he is only 21 years old. Laugher, with 85 points.

Reverse 3.5, for Jack Laugher. You can put the champagne on ice, do not

open it yet, but make sure it is nice and chilled. Because Jack

Laugher has turned up to this final. That is so much better. Sensational

front Yuan. Hypnotises the judges. 94.50, but Laugher. Yes, get in!

Tremendous third round dive from Jack. Easy like Sunday morning.

90.10, the leader, has put a foot wrong, Yuan of China with his

reverse 3.5. He is superior. 3.5 degrees of difficulty and he is just

so sharp into the water. He is the man to beat. 94.50 four Yuan. Jack,

this is his highest degree of difficulty. Let's do this. It's

good! It is good. He did get caught a little bit on that. Such a big

dive, he was a bit stuck. Still the best he has done here. Back with 3.5

somersaults with tuck four Yuan. Another tremendous dive from our top

qualifier. Yuan, hijacking this competition now. He has a sizeable

lead. He knows, his couch coach knows, this could be the difference

between a medal and not. Yes! Outstanding again. Just when he

needed it, he digs to the bottom of his toy box or where ever he needed

to go to get this one out, this is superb stuff from Jack. Jumping

jack. Look how high he goes up into the air, disappearing into the

water. Look at those scores. 96.90. Jumping Jack Flash is a gas, gas,

gas. What a show we are seeing from this young man, only 21 years old.

Brilliant diving. He will still be out in front after this dive. 86.70,

15 point advantage over Jack Laugher going into the sixth and final

round. One more to go for Jack Laugher. What colour medal will it

be? That is an Olympic medal for Jack Laugher. He has put that out of

reach, I am pretty sure. A monumental effort out there today.

He has come out this evening and delivered. 88.20, Patrick Hausding

cannot catch him. The only person who can catch him now is Yuan.

Forward, 4.5. Last dive. Gold for China, without the shadow of a

doubt. The silver for Jack Laugher. Congratulations because Yuan has

outclassed everyone. The final marks the Yuan, 96.90. That is a terrific

performance by Jack Laugher. A brilliant display tonight. It is a

big-time performer, ladies and gentlemen. They are all having a

whale of a time. My PE teacher, loads of people. He loves me. With

Chris, we knew we could do it and it was brilliant. But my prelim was a

bit nervy and then the semifinal today was even worse. My personal

worst for four years. It was hard for me to turn it around, but come

away with a silver medal and put in a really good performance afternoon,

so really pleased. A silver to go with his gold last

week Amat makes Jack Laugher, the most successful British diver in

history. Tom Daley is going in the ten metre platform later this week.

We have two ladies in the ten metre platform preliminaries today from a

high point in the diving arena. It is Mo Farah time today. It was

almost slow Mo time when our hearts were in our mouths when Mo Farah

fell in his quest to retain the 10,000 metres final. But what a

recovery. It took a lot out of him emotionally as the last four years

of work flash to his eyes. But his quest for the double, double is

still on track. He is in the 5,000m heats later this morning. Mo Farah,

wins the gold. This takes him into a place no British athlete has ever

been. Would you say that was your greatest ever win? Yes, it was

pretty amazing, to come back, to win London and then come back for years

later and when another goal, it was incredible. It was emotional. Nobody

knows what goes into it, day in, day out. I got really emotional. Mo has

fallen, he's quickly up. What was going through your mind when you

fell over? I was thinking, don't panic, don't panic, don't panic. My

mind were saying, you have worked too hard for this, don't let it go.

As Mo got the power, the strength and the speed to defend this title?

Was there any sense of doubt on that final lap? I was working very hard

and I knew I had run faster than everyone else. I have gone into that

with a massive boost. Mo Farah, wins the gold. I love winning medals for

my country and that is what drives me everyday. I promised my daughter

I was going to get the medal, so it me going, fighting to the line. How

hard is it to put the 10,000 metres behind you and focus on the five? I

have got to switch off, rest and let my body recover. Do you feel

unbeatable? When I line up, I feel confident and I know high have done

everything in training so not much more can be done. And Mo will be

underway in the first heat of the men's in about 20 minutes. We will

be live for that on the other channel, because we are heading for

a channel change. This is is some of the other goodies on offer. We have

the men's decathlon and Ashton Eaton is trying to do a Daley Thompson and

trying to become the first decathlete to win back-to-back

titles in the Olympics since Daley Thompson in 1984. Join us for that.

He has the first of five events shortly in what is a pulverising

date in the Rio heat. We will be back on the other side in a matter

of seconds. Do come with us. See you there.

You're coming across as, frankly, ridiculous.

I'm flabbergasted by that. Will they get burnt...
