Day 5 BBC One: 22.45-00.00 Olympics

Welcome back to Rio. We have a review of reasons they should all

day coming up. But first, let's had over to Matt Baker to find out

whether Max Whitlock has won a medal. Do we know yet? We are still

waiting for Belyavskiy score yet, it hasn't come in. It is going to be

very, very close. He needs a score of 15.276 to guarantee himself a

bronze, and knock Max Whitlock down in the fourth. The tension in the

arena is something you can touch. Belyavskiy has seen the score, it is

15.130 three. It is not enough. It means that breaks Britain's Max

Whitlock is guaranteed a medal. -- Great Britain. He is in the top

three without a doubt. Still two gymnasts are left to go, Oleg

Verniaiev and itchy mora. The question is now, what colour will

the Myrtle Beach? Has all -- he Uchimura. He is aiming to defend his

Olympic title. He needs the high bar routine of his life.

Sky-high release, kicks it right out.

With the full term, brought it is a little bit close on Ben Thompson. --

full turn. -- on Bent arms. Into the big dismount, the double

twist, the perfect landing. He has done all he possibly can. Wow, there

is absolute relief from quite Uchimura, absolute pressure on all

the Naib. He has to go up and follow that. -- on Oleg Verniaiev. Max

Whitlock knows he is guaranteed a medal. Great Britain have waited 108

years for a medal in the Olympics in the all-round final. The question

is, what colour is the medal of Uchimura? Has he done enough to

retain his Olympic title. He looked like he was a little bit too close

to the bar. To make sure that he didn't fall off. There will be a few

deductions for Bent arms. But, the Naib has the stay on. He

has got all of the pressure on him now, Verniaiev, on a piece that is

not really his favourite. I mean, he is the current world champion on the

high bar, Uchimura, and that is the way to finish an all-around

competition, to nail a high bar dismount like that was just

something I shall. -- something special. The school is in, it is

15.8, a massive 92.306 total score. -- the score is in. The pressure is

on now. Max Whitlock knows he has got that right. He needs 14.899, of

the Naib, to sustain a gold. -- Verniaiev. Even that is a big ask

for Baz, because this is not his strongest these of apparatus. No,

it's not. It is a piece of apparatus that he has improved over the last

year or so, but it is probably his weakest. What would you expect him

to score? He scores in between 47 and 52. There you go, between 14.7

and 15.2, he needs 14.899 to take this all-around Olympic title and be

the first man to beat Kohei Uchimura.

Can he make the dismount? Can he left, can he twist, can he land?

Just a hop. Oleg Verniaiev has worked fantastically. He hasn't put

a foot wrong. It is down to the judges now. Well, the question is,

did he put a foot wrong on that dismount? Because this is going to

be very, very close. I think if he had stuck the dismount, he had it,

but I'm not sure now. Well, Verniaiev getting the crowd going,

they have supported him all the way around. What an all-around final

this has been! The gymnasts have done everything they can, it is now

in the hands of the judges. Who is going to be the all-around champion?

He really went for broke on these catches. A lovely stretch. Body

extended as his hands go for the bar. He will have an all-around

medal whatever. Yes, but he wants that Olympic title. I'm sure he

does. Dead in the hand stand. He really

did go for perfection. -- into handstand. 14 899, the score that is

needed for gold. Is it a golden moment, or is it silver? His body

language... It suggests not. Not enough. Verniaiev scores a 14.8. It

is not enough for gold. You were right, Dan. It was a hop on the

dismount. There you are, Kohei Uchimura is still undefeated. He is

the Olympic all-around champion for the second time. But Great Britain's

Max Whitlock, he takes the bronze. What a moment for Great Britain!

First all-around medal for 108 years. And Verniaiev makes history

himself for Ukraine with the first silver medal. They've had a bronze,

but Uchimura is again on top of the world. That man went a long way

around, they went toe to toe. That just suggests the respect that they

have for each other. What a moment for Max Whitlock! We have a bronze

in the gymnastics. Max Whitlock on a score of 19.6 four. All of the hard

work of these top three has been worth it. The hours in the gym, the

sacrifice in their lives, the help from all of their families. David

Belyavskiy, 19.4 98. He finishes in fourth, the worst position to be.

But, you know, Dan, you know yourself, the way that gymnastics

takes over your life, and, for Max, for Oleg and for Uchimura to be

here, that is what you do it for. It is the hours of hard work they put

in the gym, every day. They live for gymnastics, for it all to come

together in an Olympic final is it just... That is everything you wish

for. They would have dreams about this moment. To pull it off today

is... The all-around title, we said it at the start, this is the one

that gymnasts dream of. It is the ultimate. You know, you look at the

six pieces of apparatus, you are pushing your body to the max. The

mind boggles at the level of gymnastics that we have seen. Oh,

yeah, I can't remember actually such a fantastic Olympic final where all

the gymnasts have gone all out and nobody has given marks away by

falling or whatever. There was no capitulation here at all. They

absolutely won their places. There is confirmation that Kohei Uchimura

takes the gold and retained his title here in the all-around final

of the Olympic Games. Oleg Verniaiev take the silver, Great Britain's Max

Whitlock takes the bronze medal, the first medal in an all-around final

for 108 years for Great Britain. Nile Wilson finishes in the top

eight as well. What a result for Great Britain. Christopher Brooks,

vast Lee entertaining, finishes in fourth, 14. -- vast Lee

entertaining. Resilient gymnasts in this

all-around final as well. It added to the atmosphere here. Well, what a

men's all-around final we have seen. Kohei Uchimura comic he managed to

keep composure, kept everything together, just the execution and the

level of difficulty. What a shame for all of the Naib. He thought that

this was his moment. -- Oleg Verniaiev. Max Whitlock, the relief,

the relief of the expectation on Max's shoulders coming into this as

far as British gymnastics has been concerned, it has been a real

pressure for him. It has been a real pressure. You know, silver medal in

Nanning two years ago, he has felt the pressure, Max, no doubt about

it. Like we said earlier, it seems easier to be chasing, it is easier

to be chasing than to be chase. Max has started to be chased by the rest

of the world. But he has handled it fantastically. He has improved each

competition as we have gone on long. And today he was fantastic, Max. I

mean, it just a thought, it is 108 years says a British gymnast has

been up on the medal podium in the all-around final. I mean, that just

goes to show how difficult this sport is. And I'm sure they would

say that domestic these days is very different 108 years ago. --

gymnastics. Over this Olympic cycle, Max has

come into his own. In the last three years, he is now a world-class

gymnast. What a final it has been, what a moment for Max Whitlock. The

Cofie Uchimura and Verniaiev. CLARE BALDING: That was a

sensational performance, obviously for the champion, Uchimura, but also

for Max Whitlock, to take the bronze, so much pressure on him in

all of the apparatus and particularly the floor, his final

routine, which is one of his great strengths, the floor and the pommel

horse being the ones he competes in as an individual as well. Then he

had to wait with great tension to see whether he had done enough, but

the good news is that he had done enough. Let's head back to the Rio

Olympic Arena and talk to best weather. You know what this feels

like, to pick up a medal, and what did you make of the way he

performed? He held his nerve. The competition was so tough throughout

the competition, all of the gymnasts were performing to their maximum,

and there was literally tenths in it. We had to sit nervously and wait

for Macs, and he went up first in that last rotation, so he set the

bar and had to sit and wait. And also, you know how much it takes out

of you, we sought Uchimura in the aftermath of his gold medal, clearly

really suffering. Yes, most of them are on their third competition, but

it is also the relief, it was so close at the top of that table. Beth

, we will hear more from you later on, but thank you so much to Beth

and the team. It has started pouring with rain, I need a knight in

shining armour to bring me an umbrella. I haven't got one! On a

wonderful day, you went off to the rowing and you have cursed it again.

If you need a knight in shining armour, you have come to the wrong

man! Twice now I was meant to be at the rowing during these Olympics,

both times when I have gone it has been cancelled because of the

weather. It is being said around the place that I am a curse. I have

chatted to disappointed tennis fans here who had tickets to the tennis,

and obviously it was all abandoned today. They didn't have anything to

watch. But luckily, there was lots of sporting action. That I haven't

cursed! This is what we have coming up.

Great Britain's synchro Springboard stars were looking to lay down the

law. The Olympic kayak king is crowned at the Whitewater Stadium.

We will tell you whether there was any judo joy the Team GB's Sally

Conway. And then we will shoot over to catch the men's double trap

competition. We will see how Tour de France champion Chris Froome got on

in the time trial. And as you may just have seen, it

was all action in the gymnastics all-round men's final. We will hear

later from Max Whitlock. But we start with the men's synchronised

three metres springboard diving, as we just round-up the fans! Have we

got our own personal bouncer? We haven't had it all day, you turn up

and now we have everything! Anyway, Britain have never won a diving gold

at the Olympics. Jack Laugher and Chris Mears our

current leaders. Hoping to back-up an advantage. Ready to lay down the

advantage here. Yes, so good! This is their bogey dive. I am out of my

seat. This is the one, if they got this one, they firmly put pressure

on their counterparts. This is excellent work from our boys, inward

three and a half in the touch position, 3.4 of difficulty, good

execution, and 8.5s coming their way, maybe even a 9, and if they

have that, they might be in their 80s. 85.68 for the Brits, 8.5s on

the left, 38.5s on the right. Here come the Chinese again, the dive

that Great Britain did, Britain got 85.68 on it, what can China do? It

is very skilful, the Chinese complete the dive effortlessly. So,

inward three and a half, getting the dive done, the aerial work is

superb. Hiking out way before they pass the diving board, but I think

Kim Ki closer to us hits the water, the bumps in the wrong places, and I

think one judge gave it 6.5. They got away with it a little, the

Chinese. They are in third, America have slotted into second place, and

look at this for a leaderboard. Great Britain, a big dive to come

next. USA three behind, China three behind then. Then it is Germany,

Mexico and Italy, still in range as we enter around five. The tariff is

so high on this, it can be stratospheric in terms of marks.

Forward to the half somersaults. Here they go.

Yes, it is good enough! It is good enough! Yes, yes, yes! Marginally

different distances from the diving board, but Jack and Chris have

nailed this. This is huge, it needed to be really, really good, you could

see they could drive a car through that gap, the judges will not give

them very big marks the synchronisation. I think they will

get 8s on synchro, but because of the degree of difficulty, they will

get way over 80 points. If only they were exactly the same distance from

the diving board, we would be looking at 100 points. Are we

getting excited all what here? 86.58 for Laugher and Mears, and they now

have an 11 point advantage over the USA. What they need to get above

Great Britain here is 9s across the board on their reverse somersault.

They would get just in front with that.

It is a supersonic effort, my goodness me. I would love to be

saying that wasn't excellent, but it was superior. What a guide, reverse

three and a half, we saw how easy it is to make a mistake, the Russian

pair. Marginally different on the spin speeds, but look at the smooth

entry into the water from both athletes. Execution will be 9s,

execution will be 8.5s, it will be so close. China not giving up, as

expected, they are putting up a fight. Not leaving, though, that is

the crucial point. That takes them within three points of Great

Britain. Jack Laugher and Chris Mears have a slender lead over

China, eight points ahead of the USA. It looks as though it will be

those three competing for the medals.

Forward for the half for Dorman and Hickson from the USA Op oh, my word!

A sensational effort from the US pair. High-fives all round, Steve

Foley, National performance director, on his feet, and so I. I

love to celebrate diving into this is remarkable. Forward for a half

somersaults in the tuck position, and that is spot-on for this US

pair. They are Olympic medallists, and quite right, too. What colour

medal it will be, I have no idea. This is excellent stuff. Yes, I

agree! Forte town to do it, as well. We have seen the whole gamut of

emotions from Mike Hickson, and now we will see the marks. And so will

you, 98.04, that is astonishing. 450 is now the target score, Great

Britain on 363, so 84 to win it. This is the moment. For Jack and

Chris. Laugher and Mears. They know if they do 3.8, forward for the

half, do their best extent, it is a gold medal around their necks. It

has to be really as good as they have ever done, because the

Americans put loads of pressure on them.

Yes, come on! That is an Olympic medal for sure! At least a silver

medal. Just the Chinese to follow. They have done it when it counts.

The eyes of the world are on them, they are looking at the scoreboard.

This is just as I hoped it would be, forward for the half in the tuck

position, bang on synchro, Chris Mears just marginally over rotating,

but apart from that, both divers on with execution, synchronisation bang

on. It is going to be over 90 points, and if it is, they will top

the US. They do, only just. 91.20, but enough is enough, it is four

points better than the US. They are on 454, the Chinese on 360.

Remember, Qin Kai is going for his third consecutive three metres

synchro gold medal. This is the dive that stands between him doing that

or getting a silver medal or maybe even a bronze. 95 is the magic mark

for China on this. No, I don't think it's good enough.

I do not think it is. The Chinese may find themselves in a bronze

medal position. Both divers short into the water. I do not know what

to do, stand up, sit down, watch the replay. This could be gold for GB.

Forward for the half from the Chinese, in needed to be over 95

points, it will be nowhere near that are, I think it will be gold for GB.

Again, this agonising wait, the marks haven't come! Put us out of

our misery! It must be gold. Gerry-macro

it is numeric Uno, number one, let's get those marks on the screen. It is

not gold joiner or even silver, it is bronze for China, so it is gold,

pure gold, for Jack and Chris, Laugher and Mears have done it. They

came in with medal expectations. We knew, we thought they could get a

medal, and they have, the ultimate, the best ever.

CLARE BALDING: They did something that no British diver has ever done,

together, taking the gold-medal, Jack Laugher, 21 years old from

Harrogate, and Chris Mears, 23, from Reading, both of them now Olympic

champions, and that means of course that the flag was raised on the

national anthem played. Jack, Chris, Britain's first-ever

Olympic diving champions. What? Yes, it is pretty cool. We are confused

as hell, and so happy. We did a fantastic job, two points off our

TB, not even our best, and we have this gold medal. We are so lucky and

happy with the way it has gone. It is just ridiculous. Talk us through

that fifth dive, because that is one of the most difficult dives you can

execute, and you nailed it under pressure.

Yeah, any dive under pressure is nerve wracking. That is probably our

most high-pressure dive. Over the end I thought I had pushed it

forwards, but I managed a good finish in the end. Our sink was a

bit of, we can had scored more but it was enough. We did well to be up

there. You guys are housemates. I've heard you have got space on your

wall, a couple of blank frames, ready for some pictures to go in

there. What picture will it be? We will have a think about it. I'd

probably say one of the pictures from today! We have got a couple of

frames emptied but on the wall. Jack, did you feel like you had a

point to prove, you were disappointed after London 2012 in

the individual because you went out early? That is the reason I was so

emotional in the end, it was a reflection of how much hard work I'd

put in, how far I had come from almost nothing to now everything.

This is the big one, and to do it today is the dream. To do it

alongside my best friend... You know, from London to now, four

years, we have put in a lot of hard work, set backs as well, things I've

had to give up, all that kind of stuff to get this. It is beyond

worth it. It is my absolute dream. You know, it's crazy. Talk about

tough journeys, Chris, in 2009 you were on the brink of death, is that

fair to say, you have a 5% chance of survival after you contract it a

horrible virus? That's right, to be honest, even after going through

that horrible experience and making it to London, that was enough for

me. That was something great. And then competing really well, I came

night individually, fifth in the Synchro, I was absolutely buzzing

for that. -- I came ninth. We were in a difficult position coming into

this game because we knew that we could get medals, but we kind of

did, but to actually have it is insane. Let's have a look at them.

Gold medal! Congratulations, guys, congratulations. Thank you.

CLARE BALDING: Leanne was part of the commentary team. Until today,

you were the buyout in front, you had a silver medal, you must be

thrilled -- you were the guy. What a competition, everybody has a back

story. The hard work that these guys have put in and to watch it on fold

as it did today, it could not have been more dramatic. They have dived

consistently, went all guns blazing, and they are Olympic champions,

unbelievable. You talk about all guns blazing, look back at the first

dive, which you said is the hardest dive in the world. Exactly right,

this is a forward 2.5 somersaults with requests. They were only one of

two pairs to do this in the contest. It is a little out of timeous for a

synchronisation goes, but it is a high difficulty. -- as far a

synchronisation goes. They are looking for points in the mid-80s,

this is what they get. This was crucial, because if they didn't get

this right from the Chinese and Americans would have opened up. From

a tactical point of view, how far in the build-up to these Olympics do

you think they thought, we are going to go with the world's hardest dive?

And also, tactically, how important is it but it in the right position

of your six dives? Great questions. Interestingly enough, this is what

Jack and Chris have been working on for a number of years, but it was

never quite ready until this year, when they managed to stab up a gear

and add it to their repertoire. They knew that if they wanted to compete

with the Chinese at the very best they needed maximum difficulty. They

brought it into their programme earlier this year, it worked for

them a few months ago in the Europeans when they went

head-to-head with the Russians and beat them, and it worked for them

today. Is his fabulous to what it unfold. I know many people watching

at home enjoyed it. Until the Commonwealth Games when Jack Laugher

became a bit of a superstar, and to some extent Chris Mears, they have

been really very much under the radar, I guess because Tom Daley,

deservedly, get so much attention. Yes, it is nice when you are almost

in the shadows. In the diving world they have been recognised for their

achievements ever since they started to stand on podiums, as you have

mentioned. It is nice now when only a few days into the diving

competition we have got two muddles, a bronze and Olympic gold medal, I'm

so proud of the boys. I'm sure their heads spinning. I spoke to them, how

you, they were like... I'm sure that sums it up. I'm delighted for the

coaches and British diving in general, they have worked hard to

get where they are. Do you think the lack of tension has maybe help

them.? Obviously, the pressure is on themselves as individuals and a

team, but they can get on with their work in a way that Tom Daley hasn't

been able to. I think that's a question for them, when you are in

the diving world you are competing against the same athletes in every

competition, World Series, and World Championship. But they have been

performing all year, they have got the momentum, even in training I

could tell that they were on it. They were training in the same group

as the Russians, there was a dive for dive thing going on. They came

out and put the pressure on the Chinese, the defending champions,

and they faulted. It goes to show what is possible. Jack still has the

individual three metre springboard to come. As Chris got anything else

loved? No, Chris is on holiday now. Lucky Chris! I don't know what he is

going to do, he is going to have to let things calm down, refocus and

come out all guns blazing, he is going to be a force to be reckoned

with diving in that form. We can report that the pool is still green,

we don't have any idea why, the divers don't seem to be doing so

back to worried about it. It is very windy and cold, suited to Britain!

Who cares about a green pool? It's the new thing! Fabulous stuff from

Jack Laugher and Chris Mears. Now we will turn attention to shooting.

Peter Wilson took gold in London 2012. We have an all British affair

for the bronze buckle. This was Steve Scott up against Time Kneale.

And Richard Drew is your commentator.

COMMENTATOR: Six doubles left, it could all still turn around here.

This man has to keep concentrating. You can just see the focus of the

athlete. Still a two shot advantage. Two

misses for Time Kneale. -- to him Kneale.

Nasty rise through the middle there. Did well to sort it out. Just a hand

going up there from Steve Scott. They have not many seconds to get

the shot away. Just wanted to sort himself out there. Let the referee

no. It hasn't affected his concentration, 22-20. Kneale needs

to keep hitting the doubles and hoping for the best.

He has hit the last three doubles. He is back in the groove. This man

so far hasn't missed, and carries on, 24 out of 24. Three more doubles

to go. And Steve Scott is very, very close to taking this bronze medal.

There is still time for this to change around, you know. He will not

be taking anything for granted. The weather is gloomy, it has been a wet

and damp day in Rio today. Very wintry.

Nice from Kneale. That is the fourth double in a row that he has nailed.

But it is all in Steven Scott's hands, and the edges closer to this

bronze medal. For more shots, two doubles for these athletes. -- four

more shots. If anything happens, it will then go to a shoot off. Beale

is keeping going. Hoping rock so back for a wobble from -- hoping for

a wobble from this man here. He needs to nail the next two. Kneale

knows that if he misses one of these then he misses out on the bronze

medal. Last pair. Last double for Time Kneale of Great Britain.

And he nailed it. One out of two will do it for Steven Scott. And he

gets a perfect 30 in this bronze medal match! And Steven Scott, the

31-year-old, the world ranked number ten, takes the bronze medal in the

double trap competition. CLARE BALDING: After Ed Ling's

bronze medal in the trap a couple of days ago, Steven Scott follows up

with a bronze in the double trap, his clubmate and team-mate Tim

Kneale. Just real jury for him. Look at this for a face of celebration --

real joy. Showing us the medal. Afterwards he spoke to Nick Hope.

Massive congratulations. Can you sum up what this incredible bronze medal

means to you? Easy... No, I can't put it into words, but I can put it

into a massive smile. It feels amazing, absolutely amazing. You

guys really had to come through it today, because the missions were not

easy? No, definitely not. As you can see, the conditions are not the best

-- the conditions were not easy. The targets were tricky with the wind

and rain pushing down on them. But we all had to shoot the same

targets, it was a fair competition, so it is all good. And I've come out

with a bronze medal, I can't comprehend it. It was almost British

weather today, did that help at all, do you think? It was like a British

summer, it definitely benefited us! Yes, without a doubt. Obviously, Ed

Ling kick-started things for GB shooters the other day. How much did

that help with the squad and the feel-good factor coming into these

events? I think it was our second competing in shooting, and it was

just great to see. Ed was there supporting us today. Just before he

flies back home this evening, he is dying to get back to his farm. He

was here, and that meant a lot as well. The see my family here and

friends and Ed coming along before he's going to nip off to the

airport, it's amazing. It was a fantastic bronze medal final to

watch. What was it like to take part in? Obviously up against a guy that

you know well, Tim? Well, it was a case of I kind of switched off ever

so slightly, one of us is coming away with a bronze medal, and I said

that to him before we went on, I was like, look, whoever wins, Great

Britain is coming away with a bronze medal. We both have a little cuddle

before we went on. And, yeah, it was just amazing, awesome, awesome

feeling. Can you hold the medal up to the camera and told the audience

what it means to you? The world, the world, literally. I have worked my

butt off for 14 years to get one of these and I have finally got one.

Oh... Yet... Just trying to get it together to think about. It feels

amazing, absolutely amazing. Massive congratulations. Isn't it amazing

what a couple can do! It is amazing to see so many British competitors

smiling on day five. We have more muddle is to bring you, also the

rugby sevens, Britain's men in action, and Chris Froome, Geraint

Thomas and Emma Pooley all going in the time trial today. But now we're

going to turn our attention is the judo. This is the 70 kilograms

category, Sally Conway was our hope in this, and this is how her day

unfolded. The women's 70 kilo judo contest had

Sally Conway making her first appearance at Rio 2016. And that is

it. Not hanging around at all. With less than a minute on. -- Gulen.

What a reversal for Sally Conway, what a move!

A warning for Sally Conway, an Olympic semifinal awaits. A third in

a row. That is amazing stuff, it is going

to go into Golden score here. Sally Conway has almost won this match

three times. Oh, she has lost its! She's been taken down, Sally Conway.

Sally Conway gets the medal. A bronze medal for Conway. And I have

to say that she fully deserved that. Absolute brilliance.

And there is Sally Conway going onto the podium. Euan Burton, Kate Howey,

both part of her coaching team as well -- Kate Hoey. It is a

well-deserved bronze medal. For Sally Conway. And afterwards she

spoke to cat bounce. How does that feel? It hasn't even sunk in yet,

this is what I dream my whole life or, to come away as an Olympic

medallist and today I have achieved that. You looked so determined,

there was no way you were leaving the arena without a medal. No, this

has been my dream for the last four years as London. It has taken me a

long time to get over it, but today, I can't put it into words, it is

amazing. A brilliant, brilliant fight from you, right way through,

many brilliant performances, you beat the current world champion, you

lost in the end of the three-time world champion but you were all over

it, you just looked so determined. Yet, I understand it is such a

strong field, I thought I was going to come away with the medal today, I

would have to be on my best game and put on my best performance. I was so

happy I was able to do that. After losing the semifinal and missing the

chance to fight for silver and gold, how did you pick yourself up for the

bronze? There wasn't much time in between, I had no choice, I had to

focus on the next one ahead of me and crack on the same as I have been

doing all day today, thankfully it paid off. Lots of shouts. We in the

stands. How you going to celebrate? It's amazing, I'm not from Brazil,

obviously, but the crowd have made me feel special and at home, and I

want to beg everyone, it is pretty cool. Congratulations, Sally, go and

celebrate. -- I want to thank everyone.

As Sally said, that is one of the arena is with a great atmosphere,

and many have been the victim of winning the first match and then

losing another one. And with all of these medals, it makes a massive

difference to lottery funding on the survival of the sport. Gemma Gibbons

who won a silver medal last time in London, she is married to you in

Burton who is on the coaching team. We have huge crowds streaming in

here for late-night basketball. The ones coming for tennis were

disappointed, there is no tennis tonight, it is still raining. You

can still see the drizzle in the floodlights of the tennis arena

behind us. Andy Murray and Jo Konta were both due to play today. They

get a rest. Let's go to the men's kayak, because Joe Clarke was

Britain's hoping this. When he came to do his run, Pete Carroll was the

man to beat, the Slovenian, Top of the Pops after a run of 88.70

seconds. That was the target for Clark, and your commentators are

Helen Reeves and Patrick Winterton. Here is Joe Clarke, it would be

sensational if he could crack that time. Under orders to hold back, we

believe, the 23-year-old from Stoke-on-Trent. Stafford and Stoke

Canoe club will be packed today watching his progress. He needs to

be calm and settle into that early. Tip around the gates at four, he

wants to keep tracking downstream. He has a nice open style here, it is

all about this line, and this looks sharp, it is sharp. Joe Clarke has

only been on the British senior team for four years. He won selection for

the Olympics back in October, he has been able to prepare specifically

for this run. He is clean, and he is getting faster and faster as the run

goes on, but he finds himself broadside on the big wave, but he

has great power to keep himself online. He needs to get the boat up

and running. Date 22, a little reverse and a tight pull-out, that

is looking good, it is looking tight. He was up on the clock going

through 22, and the time could be beaten, and it is! Sensational, Joe

Clarke has secured himself a medal here. It is definitely going to be

bronze and lest he beats Jiri Prskavec. Don't think in terms of

gold quite yet, because Prskavec started as the favourite, and Grigar

was sensational in the semifinals, there is no reason he might not be

again. That was the run of his life. Yes, he has built from that run when

he had to make it work, and this shows maturity, I can do this, I can

stay controlled, and he built on it. The pressure was high, he was tight

on 19, had to make it work. He made it work for him, not the line we see

many people do, the kayak men here are all building on their runs, and

what a wonderful final this is turning out to be. Looked as though

he spun a little early 19 and was having to put his back into extreme

extension to get ahead through the gate, and then the line on wasn't

right, but it didn't stop him, it turned out to be his advantage. Joe

Clarke has pulled out a storm, nice to see all of the paddlers coming

through to congratulate him. Bad news for Brazil, De Silva is out of

the medals, but we still have two to go. Don't move for the next seven

minutes. Jiri Prskavec of the Czech Republic is on his way, trying to

beat that time. The split has to be good all the way down. If you are

half a second down on the first split, that comes just 30 seconds.

Not giving away anything in the first four gates. The first upstream

gate on the course, quickly out into the flow. This is where Clark was

good through the flow, and watch the clock, he is inside, it is lightning

quick from Prskavec. And a touch from Prskavec, that could be so

expensive. We have only got 0.49 other second between gold, silver

and bronze, so to have two second added on could be damaging to your

hopes, and Prskavec knows it. He is pushing extra hard at the moment.

His execution at gate 17, great surge, quick through the upstream,

and across now to 20. But he had to bear in mind, he had been given that

penalty, but he was still only a little behind, we think Joe Clarke's

time is under threat. One more gates to go, he is held just a little bit

on gate 23, will that cost him the gold? He is outside! That Little

mistake between 22 and 23 cost in the gold. But he is into bronze

medal, Peter Kauzer sitting in silver at the moment, two penalties,

he is only 0.46 bind. That is the quickest run we have seen from

anyone by far by Prskavec, but the penalties count. Look how tight it

is. Having to push these lines, there is no option. They have to

make sure that they don't give away anything at all, and their Prskavec

really going for it. It worked very hard, because things were not always

ideal. We mentioned earlier since the Junior World Championships when

he took the run conservatively in the semifinals and then it went

wrong, he is a man who goes 100%, but now he has to sit and wait. This

will be the longest three minutes of his life, because Jakub Grigar could

still take his place. If Grigar produces a run quicker than 88.9,

then the Czech will miss out and the Slovakian will be on the podium.

So, here we go. Grigar of Slovakia, 12th in the first run, indicating a

good performance. He is only 19 years of age, surely the pressure

could be too much. Joe Clarke city in Gold medal position at the

moment, and he will have his fingers crossed, not that it goes wrong but

that it doesn't go brilliantly well for Grigar. He will have to

replicate his first run time, and it is looking good at the moment. Very

quick, but that seven, eight, he threw the head inside, taking all

the risks in the world. This looks quick but he gets a little too far

into the wave, held for a fraction of a second, and fractions

separating the top four at the moment, just 0.49 other second. 17

is OK. Nailed 17 and it is all about the spin. He is up on the split, but

you can't give away anything, slower on hold across, and a little held in

the wave as well. And wide on 20. This is going to be extremely tight.

Watch the time on 22, he has to be well under 77 seconds. He goes back

up through the gate, 75, 76, this will be desperately close. He needs

a perfect line to the finish, gets held on the stopper, that cost

Prskavec and it could well cost Grigar as well. And it is Joe Clarke

of Great Britain, the 23-year-old that is the Olympic champion for

2016. Helen, you were saying yesterday it would be fantastic if

the youngest paddler in the British team what a medal, you didn't

suggest the gold medal. That is so good for the future of British

paddling. Absolutely. The men's kayak discipline is such a tight

discipline, we have some good juniors and under 23s coming

through, and the him to come out on the biggest platform in the world

and perform that way is phenomenal. He should be so proud of himself,

his coach, they have worked very hard as a whole team, those hours

and weeks spent on this course have come to fruition, and he must be

absolutely delighted. What a fantastic performance. There are the

results, and yes, Joe Clarke of Great Britain is the new Olympic

champion in K-1. He has done it here at Diadora. Peter Kauzer in silver,

Prskavec in bronze. What a sensational performance in

his first Olympics. Done in front of his celebrating family and friends,

the 23-year-old onto the top podium to receive the gold medal and the

national anthem. CHEERING

And afterwards, Joe spoke to another gold medallist, Matthew Pinsent. Joe

Clarke, Olympic champion. That sounds good, doesn't it! I am

absolutely made up, I can't quite believe it, my words will probably

come out in a big blur, so bear with me. It is an amazing feeling. There

was some rumour about you in the semifinal, your coach had said hold

back a little and get a steady run. Yes, just to do and 85% run just to

make sure you get through to the top ten, I fell foul of a 50 in the

first round of the heat, probably pushing too hard, so just a notch it

back and make sure I made the top ten and then push for the medals.

But then for the final it was something different, wasn't it? Yes,

don't go to crazy, leave a little in the tank if you needed. And what was

it like waiting at the bottom of the run, you know you have a medal but

still two paddlers to come. It is nerve wracking, you don't know what

to say, almost hoping a little bit they don't perform to their

potential, or slide behind you, but I can't control their performances,

I just do mine on the day, and that was enough for the gold medal on the

day. There were dozens of people, watching at home on the big screen,

message for them? Cheers, guys, I will see you soon and we will have a

big party! Well done, congratulations, everyone at home is

very proud of your achievements today. Thank you, everybody.

CLARE BALDING: I don't think Joe Clarke. Smiling four years. Helen

Reeves, you were commentating there, a gold medallist yourself years ago.

Why was Joe Clarke superior? The way the course was designed was very

much for the technicians, it was about finding the rhythm, picking

the right spots and getting the drive in on those particular spot,

so it worked for the fast, dynamic paddlers, maybe not so much for

those that use brute force. Fathauer on trained eye, Claire and myself

were talking and saying, when you hit the difficult water, is it

strength that gets you through, and you said it was the opposite? The

strength helps for when you need it, when you go wrong, to get you out of

trouble, but the actual finesse is what you are looking for, the timing

between the position of where you put your stroke, and using the

water, so the guys who use the role of the waves was crucial, and

getting the left, making sure the bow of the boat is try is important,

because when the bow of the boat is dry, it is running fast. So you have

to have a certain amount of instinctive flair and rhythm? Yes,

and all of these guys have been doing it since they were really

young, and that is what it is all about. It is difficult to get into a

boat and learn the real feel of the water. In the build-up, how much of

a looked they get at the course? I have spent a few days at the

eventing and cross-country, then the show-jumping, and grisly they get to

walk the course measure the steps. What other kayakers get? As the

event goes on, they are getting more and more. The singles, they got to

see at the night before, they saw a few demonstration runners go down,

that they were on the course, then the kayakers have seen the sea ones,

and the sea tos tomorrow have seen these. But they don't race it until

they race it for real? No, they have to be ready. One of the things that

these youngsters have in common, those who have overcome a severest

illness like Chris Mears. Yes, and Joe Clarke had a severe batch of --

bout of meningitis when he was younger, he was hospitalised. He is

a fighter and he wasn't going to give up anything. Those shots of

friends and family are just fantastic, art they? Yes, it sends

us all into this buzz of excitement, it is amazing, and to see the

excitement on their faces was incredible.

When a sport comes to look for, we ask this a lot but it is important

because parents and kids will be watching this, if there is a

12-year-old or 10-year old who wants to have a go at something similar,

is it easier to start with canoeing, are there more opportunities around

the country to canoe rather than kayak? Canoeing and kayaking comes

under the same umbrella, it doesn't really matter, it is all about

finding a club and a place to do it. There are so many, and the beauty of

canoeing is that there are so many different disciplines, being on the

water is a unique way to look at the world. And where he trains, one of

the big things that has come out of London 2012 is an amazing training

facility in London, it is doing is job of producing Olympic champions.

Thank you. We will do they get inspired theme, brownie point for

me! They get inspired section of the BBC sport website has details of all

the sports you will see in the Olympics and how you can get

involved. Let's talk about the sailing, the conditions didn't stop

that in the same way it did the right wing. Shirley Robinson can

give us an update. The best use is Giles Scott moving up the

leaderboard? Yes, the British sailors did well in the British

weather. Giles Scott had a difficult day yesterday, but today he came

out. He was sailing just behind BMB Copacabanter is out on the Atlantic

Ocean, a second and first. He only got the second because the winds

were so huge he couldn't find the first bar. A great day. He is back

on form, back on the top where he belongs. A big sire of relief all

round. Could you explain the new class in the Olympics, Ben 17, a

male - female duo. Brand-new for this Olympic Games. It is a

semi-foil catamaran, like the America's Cup. I know Claire knows

about that. It is the fastest boat in the Olympics. They semi-left out

of the water. It is all on, great racing. Today, they raced under

Sugarloaf and Christ the Redeemer. Wind from everywhere, it was not for

the faint-hearted. We had a young duo, first Olympic Games, Ben Saxton

and Nicola Groves. Not the best start but they showed real character

and pulled back to Mac storm results and are now joint first on the

leaderboard, great news. -- two great results. Yet again we are

talking about the weather, the rain and the wind earlier this morning,

it made the time trial conditions really, really difficult for both

the men and women. We're going to focus on the men's race, Geraint

Thomas and the three-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome going in

this for Britain. Your commentators are Chris Boardman and Simon

Brotherton. COMMENTATOR: Walter taking a few

last deep breaths. Oh, and he didn't even get round the

first corner. Geraint Thomas on the starters, given a late entry into

this event. It is interesting. Walter, not one that he was

planning. Here is Roland Denis from Australia. He was in the Tour de

France last year. -- Rohan Dennis. One last shot at Olympic glory for

Fabian Cancellara. He fell off, but didn't get up.

The winner of the Tour de France is looking to hold onto that form. He

leads a blistering ride. This course does suit him, he has got a chance.

Chris Froome is underway on the Olympic time trial. Fabian

Cancellara, once he gets over the top of this crime coming he is going

to be close to Dennis. -- the top of this climb. Fabian Cancellara

marginally in front of Rohan Dennis. Geraint Thomas, from a British point

of view, just over five seconds down the time of Fabian Cancellara, he is

very much in the mark at this stage. Here comes Chris Froome. Out towards

the top of the first climb. He is going to be slower than Geraint

Thomas here. That is fascinating, having seen the aggressive start

that you would generally expect him to be the fastest. But he is not

doing that, he is some way away from it, it has to be said. A steady

start from him. Steady in deed, and with work to do now.

That gear really starting to tell for Dennis now. Has he started to

fast, or has he placed it nicely? Dumoulin slower than we would have

in abated, but then again, so was Chris Froome. Maybe they are pacing

their rights well. -- than we would have expected. They are getting into

the second lap, leaving themselves work to do, that is for sure. Fabian

Cancellara coming up. It is a disappointing second set before him,

24 seconds in arrears. He has an awful lot of the rain way you

would've thought suits him best. Rohan Dennis is the fastest at this

point -- an awful lot of the reign. Castro of your home from Spain in

second fastest at the moment having gone through the 19.7 kilometres

checkpoint. Here comes Chris Froome, the last man on the road. Has he

managed to gain any time on those in front of him? No, he hasn't. It is a

browsing, he is still considerably down, 24 seconds down now. So it is

surprising. If anything, he has given away more time, quite

surprising. We have seen him pace rights before where he has been

careful on the first checks, but I would have thought he would get back

on terms now on holding his own. Rohan Dennis working hard, you can

see in the body language. Like Dennis, he is staying as far as

possible in the tucked position, even on the climbs, because there is

a strong crosswind off the Atlantic. Froome out of the saddle, deciding

to choose a position which lets him get the most power out rather than

stay in the middle. Phenomenal record he has got. Three-time winner

of the Tour de France, three-time winner, seven stages of the Tour de

France, umpteen days in the yellow jersey. He would like to get another

one before he retires. Four times world champion in this event. Fabian

Cancellara has gone quicker than Rohan Dennis here. And Fabian

Cancellara, it seems, if that has right, has back loaded his effort

somewhat. What a turnaround, 24 seconds in arrears. And there is a

problem for Rohan Dennis and a change of bikes for the Australian.

Well, he was already looking difficult for him to retain his

hopes of a gold medal. And I would have to say that probably puts paid

to them. Tragic for him. I'm not sure what the problem was. Dumoulin

hasn't made up the same amount of ground, he has lost time, lost even

more time, and he is going to be fighting for a spot on the podium.

Oh, a broken handlebar seems to be the problem for Rohan Dennis. You

can see he is holding it in place himself, holding it in position. He

is losing ground, Froome. 48.30. That is the time of Fabian

Cancellara, as you can see. It is not to be, it is not the case and

the strategy, it is all the indicators seem to be accurate, it

is a long time to hold form, three weeks. A few weeks before you get

here, it was a lot to ask. 32 seconds in arrears for Froome.

Fourth place at the moment for Chris Froome as it stands. Here we go,

with Geraint Thomas. Intersite, up towards the line, a last-minute

addition to the Stalinist. A gutsy effort, as ever. We would expect

nothing less -- to the start list. Geraint Thomas is the new leader in

the clubhouse. Casco VSO on absolutely top form. A

final spurt towards the line -- the Spanish cyclist. One hour 13 minutes

and 21 seconds. Geraint Thomas now down into the silver position.

Fabian Cancellara is absolutely flying. 44.4 K. He will go faster

than anybody else on here, that's for sure. The Mulan, we're hearing,

is second on the road at the moment. 32 seconds in arrears -- Dumoulin.

Almost taking a Tombaugh there. Froome, the last of the favourites

to go through the 44 K check -- taking it humble. Third place, he is

ahead of Robin Dennis by about nine or ten seconds -- Rohan Dennis. This

final is going to be interesting, that's for sure. Here comes Rohan

Dennis now, the Australian who led during the early part of the race.

He had that problem, the bike change, the tribe are broke, the

quick bike change. It looks to me like his effort was excellent. The

problem with the bike is why he has a deficit of Chris Froome. But ten

seconds, if he wants to get on the podium. Fabian Cancellara knows the

finishing line is almost insight here. Is he about to become the

Olympic champion once again? There are others on the road behind him

but they have got a lot of ground to make up. A masterclass from one of

the graves of the sport, the four-time world champion has

produced, he could become the Olympic champion for the second time

in his career. It was a fantastic time trial masterclass. From Fabian

Cancellara. I think the edge has perhaps just

gone from his form, that is what it looks like. He is nearly a minute

behind Fabian Cancellara now. I don't think he is going to be

shifting from mature and until he goes to the podium. Sobel from that

chair. Dumoulin coming towards the finish line, eight superb ride from

the Dutchman. So a superb ride. He nearly crashed out of the Tour de

France, he made it to the start line, he has made it to the finish

and into the silver position. Tom Dumoulin, 47 seconds is than Fabian

Cancellara. Bronze goes to Spain, and Rohan Dennis Downs to four. All

that remains is for Chris Froome to cross the line and see whether he

can produce a ride in the final minutes that will propel him onto

the podium. We are looking back down the road for Froome, there he is.

Chris Froome is not far behind him. The camera needs to be of him

shortly because Froome is a major player at the end of this phrase and

he will come round the corner any moment now. Nearly four minutes

back. Froome should be coming into the finishing straight. Here he is,

it is Chris Froome coming up towards the line. Is the effort good enough

to snatch the bronze medal as he crosses the line? It is bronze for

Chris Froome. He has managed to get a medal here in the Olympic Games.

It is bronze, just as it was four years ago. But he was outside the

medals, most of the way round there. But Chris Froome pulled it out in

the end. He really dug deep, and the reality of being Olympic champion

sinking in now. Max. -- for second max.

Just no words, I mean, finishing 60 metres, gold and silver, it's not

bad. I think if I had lost by maybe five or six seconds, that would have

been disappointing with myself. But I really, yet, Fabio was nearly the

strongest guy today. I gave it everything I had but I does didn't

have any more -- Fabbiano was really. Sir Chris Hoy is with us.

Fabian Cancellara was clearly the strongest guy on what was a

gruelling course. Again, on a very difficult day. It was extremely

difficult. I think Fabian Cancellara clearly was the best man on the day,

as Chris said, if it had been a little bit closer he might have

kicked himself if it had been a handful of seconds. But if it was a

minute behind, he has got to be happy with his bronze. I think you

can see how happy everybody was, all the riders

were, for Fabian Cancellara to win on this, what a great way to finish,

you can see the emotion on his face when he realised he would be a

living champion. In Formula 1 obviously there are wet weather

tyres. Is there an equivalent for a road race bike or not close not

really, tyres have a slight thread on the outside for extra grip but it

is nothing like motorsport where you can have full wets went immediate.

You basically have the right with judgment, try and decide where you

can push it, where you have to back off. As long as you are straight and

upright when you are leaning over, that is where you have issues. You

have to avoid the painted lines in the wet. Wouldn't there be so much

skidding? Also, the surface on these roads, when they get wet the oil

comes to the surface. In foreign countries it is a warmer climate,

not like in the UK where the road have a different texture with the

tarmac. They are incredibly slippery, and particularly in the

women's race when it was very wet, when they came to the top of the

main climb and they turned to the steep descent, they were virtually

crawling. I was sure they were going to fall off, after the terrible

accidents in the road race that was clearly in the front of their mind.

A word of Chris Froome, he said that if he came a bit closer to Fabian

Cancellara then he would have been disappointed, but he was beaten by

the best man? He was, I think he was in a league of his own today, Fabian

Cancellara, he was phenomenal. He has had great time trial

performances in the past. But perhaps, he is the second oldest guy

in the field, perhaps people were starting to count him out a little

bit, and look towards the Dutch rider and Chris and other

competitors. But he showed them that he is still the boss and what a way

to finish. Sur Chris Como thank you very much with learning us. You

mentioned the women's time trial, let's show you what happened.

Britain's Emma Pooley injuring a disappointing day. A race she had

targeted specifically, having returned to the sport from Troy

Arfon. She didn't find the conditions to her liking, and

ultimately finished 14th. Russia's Zabaleta sky, as the

remaining riders failed to beat her time, she thought she had done

enough to win gold, but she didn't reckon with the fight with Kristin

Armstrong of the USA, she hauled herself back into contention to

storm home and claim a record third successive Olympic time trial title,

flaking out on the floor before celebrating with her son Lucas. So,

a popular winner, and the Russian had the settle for silver.

Sir Chris Hoy is standing here in a T-shirt pretending it is not

freezing cold whereas I have borrowed the cameraman's jacket to

keep water! The Velodrome will be warm tomorrow, because that helps

with the speed. You predicted an hour opening ceremony showed that we

would have our best ever showing on the track. You said three golds for

Jason Kenny. I still think that is a possibility. Team sprint tomorrow,

that will be huge for the whole GB team. If they can start off with a

good start, it will set the tone for the whole week, and it is going to

be so tight. Having spoken to the other nations, the Germans have had

a problem, their main rider has a stomach complaint, they have brought

another rider in. The Australian women had a crash on the Velodrome.

For of them came down, so there has been a few problems for other

nations, and at this stage, it is about staying out of trouble. The

Brits are looking in good shape. It will be exciting when racing starts

tomorrow. A British gold medallist has arrived just over your shoulder.

Chris Mears is over there! We will talk to him in just a moment, but

let's deal with the men's would-be sevens first of all, and look at the

quarterfinal draw for this. Britain made it into the quarterfinals

courtesy of a 21-19 win over New Zealand, so that meant that New

Zealand ended up paying FIJI, and Britain, as they topped the group,

got a quarterfinal against Argentina, and this is what happened

just a little earlier on, with Eddie Butler and Clive Woodward your

commentators. Recycled by Argentina. Burgess has to make the tackle.

James Davis over the ball, and James Davis does it again with that

turnover, the penalty. The penalty to GP, just for a second

they looked a little isolated there. Tom Mitchell boot the ball off the

park, it is 0-0 at half-time. Tom Mitchell, and Daniel Bibby switches.

There is a possibility, Davis is outside here. James Davis, one

handoff, two hands off, Davis can't quite yet the balance, keeps the

ball in play. Went forward so close, just thought he was going to make

it, he has just lost his balance. It allowed the Argentinians to get the

territory here. Bennett has built it, and Argentina have knocked it

on. It will be scrum down, Argentina ball. And that could be yellow.

Great Britain will be playing against sick for what is left of

this game. Daniel Bibby has gone forward on the high tackle. A

penalty, knock-on, and they could just kick for gold here. A penalty

awarded. This is to put his team in the semifinal. It has missed! Time

is up. 0-0, and we now go into sudden death. Quite simply, the

first team to score goes through. Watson can get to ground, penalty to

Great Britain, what do they'd do? Dropped the goal, go for it. Tom

Mitchell to win the game with the first point at sudden death, extra

time. , it has gone forward of Argentina. Great Britain get the

scrum. What drama. Bibby on the outside, Norton outside him. Yes!

The try that puts Great Britain into the semifinals.

So as you can see, there are the results of the quarterfinals, FIJI

beating New Zealand 12-7, Japan, what a rugby sevens they are having

for the men. And South Africa thrashing the Aussies 20 25, so it

means Fiji against Japan, and how on earth, given what we have seen so

far, how can it be 0-0 at full-time? The drama was amazing, the

conditions were really bad, and both teams became very tactical, but it

was an amazing game, and I have to say, I thought the team handled the

pressure really well. They just kept kicking the ball downfield, kept

putting on a good chases, and the Argentina player had a chance to win

the game with that kick, and he just pushed it wide, so you had to feel

fed him and the Argentina team, but they really kept their nerve, and

you heard from the commentary, we didn't keep our calm! It was amazing

score, and the scenes were just fantastic, and to see all the bench

running on was amazing. The 0-0 at full-time, this game will go down in

the history of rugby sevens, it was that good and that special. An

amazing place for that game, and just a word on Bibby, it shows the

value of having specialists in your rug we sevens squad, because he has

been playing sevens full-time for the last few years. There is a lot

of debate about the 15 aside players, whether they should be in

the seven aside team, it is a specialist sport, and the halfbacks,

Mitchell is just from me one of the outstanding players along with Cecil

Afrika from South Africa. Mitchell is a complete specialist sevens

player. He is one of the world's best players, and the 15 aside game

doesn't suit him. Bibby the same, such gifted players, they love the

game, the speed, the pace, it is very different, the whole game is

different, it brings in far more skills, aerobic capacity of the

players, and I think the game will move into the specialist sevens

players, because this is amazing, and the currency of winning an

Olympic medal, where the bronze, silver or gold, is huge, and this is

one of the great days to be involved in rugby. We cannot wait for

tomorrow, it looks like you are the last man left in that stadium! Thank

you very much for staying, go and get that car you are pointing at. I

am pointing out the guy cutting the lawn, thanks for letting me stay

here! Thank you for talking to us, go and mow the lawn, we will talk to

you tomorrow. Those competing in indoor sports had

the best of it today. Before we talk to Chris Mears, and thank you for

coming along, we are just going to show you Max Whitlock picking up his

bronze medal in the all-around gymnastics, a fabulous performance

from him. Gucci Morra took the gold for Japan. But Max Whitlock finished

third, and therefore won a bronze medal, written is first in the

all-around gymnastics since 1908. It was a fabulous performance from Max

under huge amount of pressure, he came here desperate to win in this

comp addition, he still has pommel horse and floor to come, but this

did test all of his skills, and after his effort, after he received

his bronze medal, he spoke to David McDaid.

I'm sure you are aware you are the first British man in 180 years to

win a medal, how does it feel? It feels amazing after London 2012, the

target for me was to improve myself as an all-rounder, and I feel

complete in that target. I am so proud and happy for me and Scott,

and first and second place, Uchimura is my idol, I have grown up with

these gymnasts, he deserves it thoroughly. I was watching you

waiting for the scores to coming, prowling about like a caged lion.

What was going through your head? It was tough, they made a slight error

on floor, so it made it even closer, and bearing in mind I don't look at

scores on the way round, so I didn't know where I was placing, Scott Muir

and I didn't, so it was literally a waiting game, and to be standing

here with this medal feels amazing, it really does. Daniel Keatings has

been a team-mate of Max's for a long time, huge amount of British support

around here, and they have come because of the year of gold

medallists who will be talking the second. Sum up Max Whitlock's

achievement. Unbelievable, all the pressure was on him after claiming a

gold medal at the World Championships last year, he had

shaky qualifications, they came fourth in the team final, and to put

that behind him and get a medal was an amazing achievement, hats off to

him. The first for a very long time. 108 years, I think, we have managed

to get AGB guy on the podium, I have no words. And the improvement in

British gymnastics is amazing, but this is the first ever, ladies and

gentlemen, our Olympic jiving champion, Chris Mears!

CHEERING That is your proper introduction, we

didn't give you one before. That was pretty good, I enjoyed

that. Where is Jack? He is currently in doping. We couldn't get him

along, but hopefully he can pee quickly and we can get on with the

other stuff we have to do! It is more difficult for him because he

still has to compete, but you are completely done. I am done! Finish,

one event! Party time for you now? I will spur Jack, little, go to his

training sessions, see him through, and then when he is done it is my

turn. Plenty of places to party! There was a crucial moment in your

diving repertoire you introduce this new dive, very difficult. When you

and Jack were preparing to do it, you knew you had to get it spot on.

Yes, it is always tough when the pressure is on, and you are warming

up, you think, you are in the zone, and then you see the five rings, and

I feel like it does put it into reality what you are actually about

to do. As you can see from the video, I am criticising that admit,

I was a little bit forwards there, but I managed to put a good end on

it, and as you said, Clare, it is a new dive for us, I only learned it

last year, so to use it in our list competitively, that is amazing. You

say you only learned it last year. Who had the first conversation about

doing that dive? Where did that begin? Its bird from the World

Championships. We got bronze, so we qualified already, we did that first

opportunity out of two, so we knew we had already qualified, so we

thought, why don't we play bit and try learning a new dive so that we

had enough preparation time so we didn't have the pressure of

qualifying at the next event, we could just compete it. So the first

time we competed it was in February here in Rio, it wasn't a great, but

it went really well, and we knew we could impact, so we kept it in the

World Series. The other two we did really well, so we knew we could do

some damage with it if we used it correctly. And so lovely to be able

to do it with your best mate, so you both have one of these. If you take

a close look at this medal, there is something different about it, and

that is that on the edge engraved in it is the event in which it has been

won. What is lovely for you is that that is most definitely yours, that

is not the same as anybody else's. I just teared up instantly, and I

thought, I just can't believe this. Then it started to sink in when I

was on the podium, and I heard the national anthem, that was when I

thought I was going to go, but I held myself together!

Day four of four years ago was the day Britain got going, Bradley

Wiggins, Glover and standing as well, and yours got Great Britain

going. We are up that medal table, three gold, six silver, three

bronze, USA are top. That's it from us. A big cheer for our

gold-medallists. Plenty more live action coming up next. Good night!
