:01:54. > :02:00.Hello, and welcome to the penultimate day of London's Olympic
:02:00. > :02:06.Games. It's all nearly over. But today, 32 gold medals can be won,
:02:06. > :02:11.the most on offer in any day. So, can two of our biggest names top
:02:11. > :02:15.the podium, and end this fantastic fortnight in style?
:02:15. > :02:21.18-year-old Tom Daley has an old head on young shoulders. But, will
:02:21. > :02:24.he have a medal around his neck tonight, at the Aquatics Centre?
:02:25. > :02:32.A week on from that sensational Saturday, can Mo Farah light up the
:02:32. > :02:36.Olympic Stadium again, with a delightful double? It's 25 golds,
:02:36. > :02:44.and counting. Could canoe sprint deliver number 26 for Great
:02:44. > :02:47.Britain? Ed McKeever hopes so. And there's high expectations for
:02:47. > :02:54.European champions Jon Schofield and Liam Heath, in the kayak double
:02:54. > :03:00.later this morning. So here's what we have in store for
:03:00. > :03:02.The finals get underway at Eton Dorney at 9.30, with Ed McKeever
:03:02. > :03:05.first up. After that, we'll be off to the
:03:05. > :03:09.Aquatics Centre, for the semi- finals of the men's diving.
:03:09. > :03:11.It's back to the canoe sprint in between, with Jess Walker also in
:03:11. > :03:13.action. Later today, there's the final of
:03:13. > :03:16.the men's football: Brazil versus Mexico.
:03:16. > :03:20.Britain's men's hockey team get a chance to emulate the women, and
:03:20. > :03:25.claim a bronze medal, with an Ashes clash on BBC Three this afternoon.
:03:25. > :03:29.At 7.30 tonight, Mo Farah goes in search of 5,000 metre glory.
:03:29. > :03:31.Tom Daley will hopefully be back on the diving board for the final, at
:03:31. > :03:41.8.30. And Britain's Luke Campbell fights
:03:41. > :03:41.
:03:41. > :03:44.Ireland's John Joe Nevin in the So, a big day here at the Olympics.
:03:44. > :03:47.But we start today with what's happening in the Aquatics Centre,
:03:47. > :03:50.where the latest stage of Tom Daley's Olympic journey unfolds. He
:03:50. > :03:55.became Britain's youngest ever champion in an Olympic sport when
:03:55. > :03:59.he won the world championship at 15. He has lived in the media spotlight
:03:59. > :04:09.ever since. So, after years of hype, has the 18 year old from Plymouth
:04:09. > :04:14.
:04:14. > :04:22.From a height of 10 because, it takes Tom david swan 0.6 seconds to
:04:22. > :04:27.hit the water. He is judged by those who know diving inside out
:04:27. > :04:35.and upside down, at normal speed. For the rest of us, he has to be
:04:35. > :04:40.slowed down. Only then, do all the twists and turns of his life reveal
:04:40. > :04:46.themselves. So, there is a distortion to how we see the world
:04:46. > :04:50.of Tom Daley. From the moment he looked up at the age of seven at
:04:50. > :04:56.that platform high above Central Park School in his home city of
:04:56. > :05:01.Plymouth, and told his dad that up there is one -- where he wanted to
:05:01. > :05:07.climb, he has been this prodigy falling gracefully, unable to
:05:07. > :05:11.escape analysis and scrutiny. He began to make an impact at
:05:11. > :05:17.international competition at the age of nine. He was bullied at
:05:17. > :05:27.school. He went to the Beijing Olympics at the age of 14.
:05:27. > :05:28.
:05:28. > :05:38.Brilliant. In 2009, he became individual world champion in Rome.
:05:38. > :05:38.
:05:38. > :05:45.Tom, come here and give me a cuddle. He won individual gold at the
:05:45. > :05:55.Commonwealth Games, and in the synchronised. His companion, driver,
:05:55. > :05:56.
:05:56. > :06:00.film-maker, best mate, his father, aged 40, died of a brain tumour.
:06:00. > :06:06.This year, Tom won the individual 10m platform in the European
:06:06. > :06:12.Championships. But, was he doing too much of this? And even in
:06:12. > :06:19.London, is there no escape of being visible, available to be insulted?
:06:19. > :06:27.He is up there with the best. This is his moment. But, can he beat Qiu
:06:27. > :06:31.Bo, his arch rival? For the twists and turns of Bint Tom Daley.
:06:31. > :06:35.Perhaps we will never see him as he truly is at normal speed, and we
:06:35. > :06:42.should only worry that he does not go the other way of other child
:06:42. > :06:47.stars. Except, falling is what Tom Daley does. How we see him is no
:06:47. > :06:51.more distorted than how he sees the world, from a handstand on the edge
:06:52. > :06:59.a rig platform 10m up there. Perhaps we should simply enjoyed
:06:59. > :07:08.Tom Daley and all he does, while it lasts. I was nine when I drew this,
:07:08. > :07:11.we are doing a handstand in London 2012. All 1.6 seconds of it.
:07:11. > :07:21.When Tom dives, the voice you hear commentating is Leon Taylor, Athens
:07:21. > :07:21.
:07:21. > :07:25.silver medallist. And he's here now. It has been quite a journey for him,
:07:25. > :07:30.particularly since Beijing. Certainly, watching the video, it
:07:31. > :07:37.shows how long we have known about this young child prodigy. How he
:07:37. > :07:46.has grown, here he is in his second Olympic Games, at the age of 18. It
:07:47. > :07:53.is a tough, a rollercoaster. The nation is glued to the TV. He is in
:07:53. > :07:57.the semi-finals this morning. Last night wasn't great actually. He has
:07:58. > :08:02.had to cope with the loss of his father, someone incredibly
:08:02. > :08:08.important to him in his development as a diver. The great thing about
:08:08. > :08:14.Tom Daley, he seems way above his ears. Everything that life throws
:08:14. > :08:21.at him, in and out of the swindle macro, major life events, losing
:08:21. > :08:28.his father, which would rock anyone, he has managed that incredibly well.
:08:28. > :08:37.He is an inspiration. At the tender age of 18, lots of people are
:08:37. > :08:42.behind him. It is a big day. cannot be easy. British Olympians
:08:42. > :08:49.going into this, he is probably one of the best known, and he hasn't
:08:49. > :08:59.won a medal. Tom Daley is an example, he is so close to so many
:08:59. > :08:59.
:08:59. > :09:07.of the young people. He is so accessible, so young. Four years
:09:07. > :09:11.ago, in Beijing. He has grown up now.
:09:11. > :09:14.Tom gets under way at 10am this morning. And we're now down to the
:09:14. > :09:17.last 18 divers, after last night's preliminary rounds. It's fair to
:09:17. > :09:27.say, though, it didn't quite go according to plan for Tom at the
:09:27. > :09:34.
:09:34. > :09:44.COMMENTATOR: Here he comes. He hasn't a lot to smile about at the
:09:44. > :09:44.
:09:44. > :09:49.that put him right back into the competition.
:09:49. > :09:59.It is fair to say it has taken a little while for Tom Daley to warm
:09:59. > :10:11.
:10:11. > :10:19.crowd cannot believe what they are saying.
:10:19. > :10:29.Now, Tom Daley. Not a good start. There is no margin for error on
:10:29. > :10:40.
:10:40. > :10:44.this dive. Just do it right and you Part of the Olympic Games is you
:10:44. > :10:51.have to go through three rounds before you get to the final.
:10:51. > :11:01.Normally, the semi-final doesn't have many competitors but this was
:11:01. > :11:05.
:11:05. > :11:09.He only just scraped into this. was touch and go. Tom and Pete
:11:09. > :11:13.Waterfield, they both seemed relaxed. As soon as the competition
:11:13. > :11:19.started, they looked jittery, they didn't seem to be enjoying their
:11:19. > :11:26.moment. There was nowhere to hide, if you are feeling the pressure. It
:11:26. > :11:33.is such an accurate sport. If the nerves are affecting you, it is
:11:33. > :11:38.obvious. As Tom Daley mentioned, it is a long competition. Right at the
:11:38. > :11:45.end. The pressure was building. They were not able to stand up in
:11:45. > :11:50.the beginning. Tom made it through. It is a marathon of diving. The
:11:50. > :12:00.points do not carry, which is in his favour. This morning, they
:12:00. > :12:10.
:12:10. > :12:17.start from scratch. He had some macro -- dives to last. The entry
:12:17. > :12:26.into the water needs to be vertical with as little splash as possible.
:12:26. > :12:33.As low as possible. And a vertical entry. That was marginally short of
:12:33. > :12:43.vertical. Anything far away from vertical is when the marks go very
:12:43. > :12:43.
:12:43. > :12:50.low, we saw a few of those, and usually. Let us look at this one.
:12:50. > :13:00.3.6 degree of difficulty. A little bit weak on take-off. He wasn't
:13:00. > :13:04.
:13:04. > :13:09.He was arching, which meant that the dive was not complete. He
:13:09. > :13:18.needed his last dive to kick him in. A few people last night were
:13:18. > :13:26.wobbling. Pete Waterfield didn't make it through. You know him very
:13:26. > :13:32.well, you want your medal together. His 4th Olympic Games. I spoke to
:13:32. > :13:39.him. This is the one that let him down. He said, adding to have any
:13:39. > :13:47.nerves Until I stood on the diving board and it hit me like a train.
:13:47. > :13:53.He really struggled after that. The enormity of the occasion. Whatever
:13:53. > :13:59.field you are in, no matter how much you prepare, you still don't
:13:59. > :14:03.know what that moment will feel like. You can't get 17,000 people
:14:03. > :14:13.to come in and watch you train, it is difficult to replicate those
:14:13. > :14:13.
:14:13. > :14:19.conditions. I am hoping and wishing that Tom can perform as he can. I
:14:20. > :14:24.am not going to talk about medals. If I see him produce the
:14:24. > :14:30.performance he can, he will be very competitive. That's all you can
:14:30. > :14:37.ever ask for, in an Olympic final, be competitive. It has been such a
:14:37. > :14:42.long journey. You get scored for the way you execute a dive, and how
:14:42. > :14:51.hard it is. After last night, when he changed what he does in his
:14:51. > :15:00.choice? He definitely will not. In diving, you do six different dives,
:15:00. > :15:05.they are judged on execution, to give a total for a cumulative score.
:15:05. > :15:10.He will perform exactly the same, in the same order. He needs to get
:15:11. > :15:17.rid of those nerves and stop performing at the level he wants to.
:15:17. > :15:24.I am hoping the one thing I would say it is, put the smile on your
:15:24. > :15:29.face, that changes everything in the body. He cannot block out the
:15:29. > :15:39.crowd but you can let it is by you. Those who have done the best job
:15:39. > :15:50.
:15:50. > :15:58.have stood on the diving board, Yes, Chinese divers were on fire
:15:58. > :16:06.for stopped judo was faultless. He finished 110 points ahead of Tom
:16:06. > :16:15.Daley. Qui Bo did not even need to perform his final dive to qualify
:16:15. > :16:19.for the semi-final. And they knew was up there as well. And the
:16:19. > :16:25.German gave an exceptional performance in the Pillar Mary's.
:16:25. > :16:33.It will be exciting. Be to is a very competitive field so the best
:16:33. > :16:38.of luck to Tom Daley. If Tom Daley, Mo Farah, Luke
:16:38. > :16:43.Campbell and Ed McKeever do top the podium, it is worth looking at the
:16:43. > :16:47.contrasting celebrations. We have seen all sorts of ways of enjoying
:16:47. > :16:53.a golden moment. Jason Muhammad thought he would seek out the
:16:53. > :16:59.special ones. The golden moment, everything wants
:16:59. > :17:03.it. What do you do when you have won it. Who has done the most
:17:03. > :17:11.stylish celebration of London 2012? They have had four years to think
:17:11. > :17:17.about it. The German discus champion rip his top off like the
:17:17. > :17:22.Hulk and then took to the hurdles. Ben Ainslie lifts up the Weymouth
:17:22. > :17:30.Coast line. We have had splashing swimmers,
:17:30. > :17:34.track kissing, medal kissing, medal biting, flag-waving. And if you
:17:34. > :17:39.want commitment, it does not get better than dancing Denise Lewis
:17:39. > :17:47.and the boys in the studio. But which golden moments have shone
:17:47. > :17:50.brightest? Was it this... SCREAMING: make some noise for the
:17:50. > :18:00.screening. Is your money on the move they have
:18:00. > :18:02.
:18:02. > :18:06.been calling the move by Mo Farah. The feel the Love, Team GB, pure
:18:06. > :18:12.passion from a Victoria Pendleton. The moment of the sweetheart of the
:18:12. > :18:18.track gave us her heart. Pointing, Andy Murray mastered it. If he
:18:18. > :18:24.don't want to look up, hit the deck and cover your eyes. Lie back and
:18:24. > :18:28.think of Britain, Jessica, you deserve the rest. He had just won
:18:28. > :18:36.the gold medal, how do you celebrate? Chris Hoy likes to keep
:18:36. > :18:42.it old school. Chris Hoy gets the gold medal. He loves a hope, too.
:18:42. > :18:51.And we have seen lots of hugging. Most of it has been done by Sir
:18:51. > :18:57.Steve Redgrave. Keep on hugging! And there have been crying, it has
:18:57. > :19:05.been emotional. There is one celebration, one athlete who has
:19:05. > :19:09.captured the imagination with this... His signature move. So for
:19:09. > :19:13.all of you aspiring athletes, it is great to dream about the golden
:19:13. > :19:20.moment, but a unique to think about what you will do when you get
:19:20. > :19:29.there! -- you need to think. Some of those fantastic moments.
:19:30. > :19:33.There are so Steve Redgrave gets my boat for the hugging. Now to think
:19:33. > :19:37.about the four years of hard work that ends in disappointment and the
:19:37. > :19:45.finals of the BMX cycling went that way for the British psyche has,
:19:45. > :19:55.both Sinead read and her counterpart had at progressed well
:19:55. > :20:09.
:20:09. > :20:14.Shanaze Reade. She came out with absolute confidence. The first
:20:14. > :20:20.rider to go sub 40, very nice work, Shanaze Reade. She is getting
:20:20. > :20:27.caught in traffic. She is in 6th position at the moment, so much to
:20:27. > :20:34.do. Bitter disappointment for Shanaze Reade. Difficult few days
:20:34. > :20:39.and she is with me. How are you feeling? It is starting to sink in
:20:39. > :20:45.that I did not come away with a medal that I had trained so hard to
:20:45. > :20:51.do so. But I have enjoyed the whole experience of these Olympic Games.
:20:51. > :20:55.The crowd have been so phenomenal. It has been incredible. What do you
:20:55. > :21:00.think went wrong in the end? Was it the pressure and it being
:21:00. > :21:08.overwhelming, but he did have a difficult start? I am not
:21:08. > :21:13.disappointed, because in the heats I had one of the hardest. I was
:21:13. > :21:16.battling with Caroline Buchanan from Australia. In the final I
:21:16. > :21:22.thought I would play it safe a little bit to get out of trouble on
:21:22. > :21:27.what was going on on the outside. I paused for the split second and
:21:27. > :21:32.everybody came across to get on the inside of the first corner. I felt
:21:32. > :21:38.myself trapped in and they could not do anything. The nature of the
:21:38. > :21:46.sport, you have a split second to make those decisions and it can
:21:46. > :21:49.then quickly? Yes, that is exciting part of the sport. It is a great
:21:49. > :21:54.spectacle for people to watch, because it is exciting from start
:21:54. > :21:59.to finish. It has been one of the hottest tickets. The only criticism
:21:59. > :22:04.I have heard is everybody flashes by too quickly and it is over so
:22:04. > :22:11.fast? If I could have had one more than one opportunity to go again
:22:11. > :22:15.after that, I would have. I was proud of myself how I did, and how
:22:15. > :22:19.my sponsors got behind me up to the Olympic Games. It has been
:22:19. > :22:25.phenomenal. I am gutted I did not come away with a medal, but I can
:22:25. > :22:28.hold my head up high and say added my best. You certainly can,
:22:28. > :22:37.Victoria Pendleton was there yesterday. You know her pretty
:22:37. > :22:43.well? Yes. And David Beckham? not see him, my eyesight is not the
:22:43. > :22:50.best. You do go by pretty quickly. It is good he came and watch.
:22:50. > :22:57.are only 23, so you have time? You will be back? Definitely. I will
:22:57. > :23:02.keep training to be the Olympic champion. I have the attributes to
:23:02. > :23:06.the Olympic champion and I just need to puts it together on the day.
:23:06. > :23:11.I am going to take it step back door few weeks and gather my
:23:11. > :23:17.thoughts and see where I go. But I definitely want to be in Rio.
:23:17. > :23:23.Whether it will be on the track, BMX, I do not know. He will
:23:23. > :23:28.consider track Cycling for real? Absolutely, it is a possibility.
:23:28. > :23:31.Victoria has retired and it leaves the door open for other British
:23:31. > :23:37.athletes coming through. I have demonstrated I am good at track
:23:37. > :23:42.cycling, getting the gold medal with Victoria. And you are also in
:23:42. > :23:46.one piece, which is not always the case. We have seen plenty of riders
:23:46. > :23:54.crashing. You have had your share of broken bones, how many injuries
:23:54. > :23:59.have you had? To name a few, I have broken my elbow, I have snapped the
:23:59. > :24:04.ligaments of my wrist, dislocated both shoulders, broken my knee,
:24:04. > :24:08.broken bones in my feet, my hands. It is not to put people off the
:24:08. > :24:13.sport, it is the nature of the sport. It doesn't always happen to
:24:13. > :24:16.everyone, but sometimes you can be caught out. Have they ever been a
:24:16. > :24:22.moment when you have wavered and thought, this is putting myself
:24:22. > :24:29.through too much? It is getting harder to cope with the injuries as
:24:29. > :24:34.you get older, but it is part and parcel. I started racing from the
:24:34. > :24:37.age of 10, and it is all I news. I was crashing from the beginning
:24:37. > :24:42.because you want to expand your skills and take chances. And I
:24:42. > :24:47.thought if this is what it is about, I have to put up with its. This has
:24:47. > :24:53.not ended the way you would have wished it, but when you look back,
:24:53. > :24:57.how we remember these two weeks? Probably the best of my life. It is
:24:57. > :25:04.such a contrast to Beijing when I went in and felt so much pressure,
:25:04. > :25:09.stress and anxiety. But it has been the opposite, I have been a very
:25:09. > :25:13.chilled every day, I have enjoyed the crowd, everything, the whole
:25:13. > :25:18.experience. It has not been the result that I wanted, I came away
:25:18. > :25:23.with six position, went away with 8th position in Beijing, so I guess
:25:23. > :25:29.it is a move up the ladder. But it has been the best two weeks of my
:25:29. > :25:35.life. The BMX has been fantastic to watch. You have some big decisions
:25:35. > :25:39.to make, but take your time in making them and well done.
:25:39. > :25:43.There was disappointment on the BMX track for Great Britain, but could
:25:43. > :25:50.there be happier times at Eton Dorney this morning? That is an
:25:50. > :25:59.event that has inspired a lot of medals for the rowers. Setting the
:25:59. > :26:04.scene in Berkshire, Helen Reeves. It is a glorious morning, if not a
:26:04. > :26:10.little windy which may have an effect on the canoeists. That will
:26:10. > :26:16.have a headwind in the faces of the guys and girls this morning? It all
:26:16. > :26:21.mean do tide won't be as fast. The weather forecast has said it might
:26:21. > :26:26.turn into a crosswind, and if that happens, lane seven and eight might
:26:26. > :26:31.be affected. Because it is in the grandstand and the tunnelling of
:26:31. > :26:35.the course, hopefully it won't have any effect on the racing conditions.
:26:35. > :26:40.This is the day when are strong as medal hopes are in action and it is
:26:40. > :26:44.Ed McKeever, the man dubbed the Usain Bolt of canoeing. He has
:26:44. > :26:49.looked impressive in the heats and semi-finals and has sacrifice so
:26:49. > :26:54.much in his personal life to go for the gold medal? He came out
:26:54. > :27:01.yesterday, dominated the heats and the semi-final. He will be under
:27:01. > :27:06.attack from other competitors. The Canadian was there. There will be
:27:06. > :27:13.competition, the 200m is incredibly tight. Ed McKeever was looking
:27:13. > :27:18.great. He has said he is coming here for the gold. He is so calm,
:27:18. > :27:22.despite the weight of expectation, he is taking it in his stride?
:27:22. > :27:27.seems to be in a focused frame of mind and maintaining it, which is
:27:27. > :27:33.incredible. He has not been affected by the crowd or anything.
:27:33. > :27:37.Fingers crossed. Give us an idea of his standing. He was world champion
:27:37. > :27:42.a couple of years ago, he has been the leader of the pack in Great
:27:42. > :27:47.Britain over this distance? Absolutely, he has dominated
:27:47. > :27:53.internationally and nationally. In 2010 he came out wanting everything.
:27:53. > :27:59.Got beaten a few times in the World Cups, but was European champion in
:27:59. > :28:03.2011. But I think it almost made him mentally stronger to come out
:28:03. > :28:07.here, having been beaten at the European Championships and stamp
:28:07. > :28:13.his authority in the early part of the rates. Jess Walker got through
:28:13. > :28:17.to the final of the women's kayak 200. She was counting how Lucky
:28:17. > :28:22.Star has. She said she could not believe it will stop she is a
:28:22. > :28:27.fantastic performer. She knew she was capable of it, but delighted to
:28:27. > :28:32.be in the final. Now she is in it, it is all about getting a good
:28:32. > :28:37.start and making sure she is in the pack. It will be a tough call to
:28:37. > :28:42.get a month the medalists, but once you are in the race. She is 22 and
:28:42. > :28:46.it is only her second or Olympics, and she is getting better? Yes, she
:28:46. > :28:51.is one of the youngest out there this morning. Pavlysh are well hold
:28:51. > :28:57.her nerve and deliver like she did in the semi-final yesterday.
:28:57. > :29:01.Liam Heath and Jon Schofield, we have high hopes for them in the
:29:01. > :29:07.kayak double. They have been on the podium in nearly every competition
:29:07. > :29:10.they had been in? In the European Championships, they were at the top,
:29:10. > :29:16.hearing the national anthem, which I ensure this is where they want to
:29:17. > :29:21.be today. But there is a strong Russian per in the semi-finals.
:29:21. > :29:26.They will be amongst five of them battling it out for the medal
:29:26. > :29:30.positions. But the British pair have had a taste of what the gold
:29:30. > :29:34.medal is and they will desperately be wanting it. They will want to be
:29:34. > :29:38.on the podium. I am confident in their ability to do that. High
:29:38. > :29:43.hopes of medals today at Eton Dorney, Ed McKeever, we hope for
:29:43. > :29:49.the gold medal for him is off at 9:37am.
:29:49. > :29:54.We will be back with you in a few minutes. Now to hear from the man
:29:54. > :29:58.himself. He said his first Olympic memories go back to Linford
:29:58. > :30:08.Christie and Chris Boardman. Now he aims to join them as the British
:30:08. > :30:09.
:30:09. > :30:14.The 500-metre races have been replaced by the 200-metre races,
:30:14. > :30:24.and as a consequence that had improved your chance of a medal.
:30:24. > :30:29.yes, at think it has, I've been successful, silver medal at the
:30:29. > :30:35.World Championships, pretty much in every race I have done for the past
:30:36. > :30:42.three years. I am quite confident of my form going into this one.
:30:42. > :30:51.Tell me how you got into it, way back in 1995. I believe a school
:30:51. > :31:00.friend took you to raid canoe club. Yes, after school. In a small town,
:31:00. > :31:06.not much to do. I ended up wasting by afternoons at the canoe Club.
:31:06. > :31:14.hasn't been a waste, you are doing very well. I have read that you
:31:14. > :31:23.have been likened to the Usain Bolt of canoeing. I have heard that. But
:31:23. > :31:26.Philip I can go as fast as he does. -- Hopefully.
:31:26. > :31:32.Well, whichever way it goes for Ed McKeever, it will all happen
:31:32. > :31:39.quickly. 30 seconds that could define his career are about to get
:31:39. > :31:48.under way at Eton Dorney. The canoe sprint, there are two
:31:48. > :31:57.distinct types of boat. The kayak is raced by up to four competitors,
:31:57. > :32:07.known as K1, K2 and K4. Kayak Evans are contested by men over distances
:32:07. > :32:14.of 201,000 metres. Women compete over 205 hundred metres. The canoe
:32:14. > :32:21.is C1 and C2. It is also contested over 200, and 1000 metres. The
:32:21. > :32:26.canoe it is propelled using single blade paddles, directed by using
:32:26. > :32:32.one stroke on one side. The first to cross is a winner but a
:32:32. > :32:35.PhotoFinish is often required to confirm results. A dead heat in
:32:35. > :32:39.qualifying will see both competitors progress but they may
:32:39. > :32:44.be forced to race again if places are limited.
:32:44. > :32:54.If he would fight to get involved in a live exports, go to our
:32:54. > :33:07.
:33:07. > :33:13.website for more information. Back to Eton Dorney.
:33:13. > :33:18.Ed McKeever is the most calm and focused man down here. Yesterday,
:33:18. > :33:26.speaking to him after the semi- finals, despite the fact he was
:33:26. > :33:32.impressive, he didn't get carried away. He had some good times, the
:33:32. > :33:38.fastest time in the heats and semi- finals. His big danger is De Jonge,
:33:38. > :33:43.who has had the fastest time in the world over. Admittedly, and an
:33:43. > :33:51.official time, in the Canadian time-trials. He looked impressive
:33:51. > :33:55.as well. Ed McKeever, world champion two years ago. Impressive.
:33:55. > :34:02.Good winter training. Everything has gone to plan. All he needs now
:34:02. > :34:05.is a little bit of luck, a decent start. Heat is the favourite to win
:34:05. > :34:13.gold medal for Great Britain, to give us a great start to what could
:34:13. > :34:19.be an excellent start at Eton Dorney.
:34:19. > :34:26.He has looked fantastically strong in the heats and semi-finals.
:34:26. > :34:31.looks to be no witness to Ed McKeever. Earlier, talking to Helen,
:34:31. > :34:37.everything has been dedicated to this moment. He moved from Bradford
:34:37. > :34:42.upon Avon, to be close to a good training centre. He has been
:34:43. > :34:47.training at Eton Dorney for several months. He is used to this scenario
:34:47. > :34:53.and the bid situation. His preparation could not have gone any
:34:53. > :35:03.better. The fact he has been the best band in the world, and
:35:03. > :35:11.
:35:11. > :35:17.excellent preparations, raises our The stage is set at Eton Dorney,
:35:17. > :35:27.the first of the finals of the day. Let us hand you over to our
:35:27. > :35:47.
:35:47. > :35:57.army of fans here. Craviotto, second quickest in the
:35:57. > :36:04.
:36:04. > :36:11.won his heat, his semi-final. What a challenge he will face from De
:36:11. > :36:20.Jonge, quickest in the semi-finals. Beaumont, second in his semi-final
:36:20. > :36:30.behind Ed McKeever. Novakovic, the European champion.
:36:30. > :36:38.
:36:38. > :36:48.You know it is a good race when tension. The relative quiet before
:36:48. > :36:58.
:36:58. > :37:05.with hope for Ed McKeever. That Britain might have a gold medal to
:37:05. > :37:14.celebrate. He will start fast, no doubt about that. They are away
:37:14. > :37:24.first time. Who gets out the quickest? Ed McKeever it is out
:37:24. > :37:25.
:37:25. > :37:32.fast. Powering on. He has such great strength. Craviotto tried to
:37:32. > :37:37.get alongside him. Coming into the final 50m. Ed McKeever is still out
:37:37. > :37:45.in front, they will have to work hard. Coming up to the line, still
:37:45. > :37:51.holding on, it is gold for Great Britain, and the quiet man has let
:37:51. > :38:00.out a roar, as he becomes Olympic champion. He went up fast. He held
:38:00. > :38:06.on a strong, he has the gold medal. Absolutely fantastic. He blew the
:38:06. > :38:13.field a way as he powered away from that start bucket, his stroke rate
:38:13. > :38:21.up nice and high. Leaving everyone else to catch him up. He will be
:38:21. > :38:28.delighted, a fantastic three years of competition since his -- this
:38:28. > :38:34.200 metres race has come into play. Craviotto, confirmed silver medal.
:38:34. > :38:40.De Jonge, for the bronze medal. A man who was injured, who thought he
:38:40. > :38:48.might not be in the Olympic Games, after he broke his finger this year.
:38:48. > :38:53.Beaumont just missing out. A look at Ed McKeever go, he --
:38:53. > :38:59.they couldn't get near him. He maintained that need, I thought
:38:59. > :39:05.some of the others might come back. This is the start where he is
:39:05. > :39:13.renowned, that top speed, driving through, using that upper-body. The
:39:13. > :39:18.rotation through his body. Driving those blades into the water. The
:39:18. > :39:27.focus this man has his incredible. He hasn't been fazed by anything in
:39:27. > :39:31.this Olympic competition. Often, these races are close and
:39:31. > :39:37.settled by inches. That was a handsome victory. That is what it
:39:37. > :39:47.means to become Olympic champion. Some work in the west Country they
:39:47. > :39:48.
:39:48. > :39:55.are celebrating raucously -- somewhere. What a performance from
:39:55. > :40:01.Ed McKeever, the sprint king of kayak. Ronald Rauhe, who knows what
:40:01. > :40:11.it means of to went at European and Olympic level. He congratulates Ed

:40:34. > :40:39.after a stunning performance, he is on his way over. Congratulations,
:40:39. > :40:45.that was out of this world. Never a moment's doubt. A I wouldn't go
:40:45. > :40:53.that far. It was really painful down the last bit, that head wind
:40:53. > :41:00.made the race for longer. Take me through the moments at the start.
:41:00. > :41:10.was focused on the first three strokes, I wanted to nail those
:41:10. > :41:16.
:41:16. > :41:25.keenly. Put fully, -- and the race would sort itself out.
:41:25. > :41:35.I am so happy. And, the moment you crossed the line? Relief, it sounds
:41:35. > :41:37.
:41:37. > :41:43.stupid. Not a nation. Relief, that I could do it in front of the home
:41:43. > :41:49.crowd -- not elation. You have put a lot of things on hold. But in
:41:49. > :41:53.front of a home crowd, it is worth it. It is brilliant. I woke up at

:43:39. > :43:43.watching from the start, you would He never relinquished that
:43:43. > :43:51.advantage. This new distance introduced to the Olympics, it has
:43:51. > :43:59.been perfect for Ed McKeever. He was very good at 500, at 200, he is
:43:59. > :44:04.simply the best. He was in control, he never looked overwhelmed by the
:44:04. > :44:11.expectation. 200 metres is about controlling
:44:11. > :44:16.that explosive power which is what he did. He got a great start and
:44:16. > :44:21.maintained his advantage. He is such a strong athlete. Heat is so
:44:21. > :44:29.intense, a combination of physical and mental ability. It all came
:44:29. > :44:37.together. When this canoe sprint started on Monday, all of the focus
:44:38. > :44:45.was on today. He has delivered. Two more chances, and hopefully they
:44:45. > :44:50.will take inspiration from what Hopefully they will be leading the
:44:50. > :44:57.pack and they will be boosted after seeing Ed McKeever. Fantastic for
:44:57. > :45:03.the crowd at Eton Dorney. When will we see those races? Jess Walker is
:45:03. > :45:09.at 10:21am. It is her second a Olympics, she was at Beijing aged
:45:09. > :45:19.18. She has outside chances of a medal, but with the inspiration of
:45:19. > :45:24.Ed McKeever, she can scrape into the medal spots. The Russians
:45:24. > :45:29.looked very good, and they beat the British pair can decently yesterday.
:45:29. > :45:34.But they feel if they have a better start than yesterday, they can claw
:45:34. > :45:39.back some of the advantage. Anything can happen. It has been a
:45:39. > :45:43.fantastic start to the day. Ed McKeever has delivered the first
:45:43. > :45:47.gold medal for Great Britain of the day. He is now the Olympic champion

:46:13. > :46:18.I imagine the Royal Mail will be starting work on the Ed McKeever
:46:18. > :46:25.stamps. There are plenty more opportunities for gold medals this

:53:36. > :53:43.guard. Nicola Adams has just made history. I was so overwhelmed. I
:53:43. > :53:47.remember hearing the crowd cheering. I was tapping my chest with the GB

:55:44. > :55:50.that race? He left everybody else waiting to catch him. He took it
:55:50. > :55:57.out there from the very beginning. It is all about getting a fast
:55:57. > :56:00.start, getting the boat at running smoothly. He has a long stroke but
:56:00. > :56:05.he maintained his rhythm and pace and kept gliding through the wall
:56:05. > :56:11.tough. Almost a bit like he was a tiring up towards the end but he
:56:11. > :56:16.knew he was almost there. The times are so low. He was very quick
:56:17. > :56:25.yesterday. He was the quickest in the semi-finals. Jevgenij Shuklin
:56:25. > :56:35.coming through to take the silver. Just ahead of Ivan Shtyl' from
:56:35. > :56:35.
:56:35. > :56:39.We will be back at Eton Dorney in a few minutes because we still have
:56:39. > :56:45.two more finals. It will feature Jess Walker of Great Britain. We
:56:45. > :56:49.will be looking at that race. Time down to her to the aquatic centre
:56:49. > :56:56.because Tom Daley is back in action. This is the semi-finals of the ten-
:56:56. > :57:01.metre platform diving. Let's join Leon Taylor. How is it going to
:57:01. > :57:07.work for Tom Daley this morning, do you think? The crowds are filling
:57:07. > :57:11.up behind me, watching that divers completing their warm-up. Tom Daley
:57:11. > :57:18.has just been announced to the audience. It is an extraordinary
:57:18. > :57:24.atmosphere, the warm ups are done, it is time to make the next six
:57:24. > :57:28.dives count, the noise is incredible. Obviously, he will have
:57:28. > :57:31.had a chance to get used to what the aquatic Centre sounds like an
:57:31. > :57:37.the level of support, because it you were telling me it slightly
:57:37. > :57:42.unnerved him yesterday? Yes, he looked a bit shaky when he started.
:57:42. > :57:50.I am hoping he can take it in his stride, as a we are so accustomed
:57:50. > :57:55.to seeing him do. He has six dives to do. He needs to be in the top 12
:57:55. > :58:02.to go through to the final. He needs to smile and enjoy it, and
:58:02. > :58:07.set this place on fire. Six dives, does every divert do the same six,
:58:07. > :58:16.or can they choose the best? They have to cover six different groups
:58:16. > :58:22.of dives, forward, backward, in woods, reverse, way you stand
:58:22. > :58:27.forward and spin back. Twisting, and also the on stand, were you
:58:27. > :58:33.balance on the end of the board. They can choose the order, so it is
:58:33. > :58:39.often a game of tactics. When do you do your best dive, when do you
:58:39. > :58:46.do your weakest dive? We will be with you in the aquatic centre.
:58:46. > :58:51.This is the moment of reckoning for Tom Daley. He only scraped into the
:58:51. > :58:55.semi-final in 15th place and only 18 made it through. And only 12
:58:56. > :59:01.will go through to the final. We heard earlier how he had drawn a
:59:01. > :59:07.picture of himself competing at London 2012. Nine years on, that
:59:07. > :59:13.dream is a reality. Or will there be a happy ending?

:59:51. > :59:54.is a big moment for the divers. reduced them to 18. Sadly we have
:59:54. > :59:59.lost Peter Waterfield from the original line-up. We have lost a
:59:59. > :00:03.lot of big names along the way. We nearly lost Tom Daley. He got into
:00:03. > :00:07.7th place and then faltered. We are looking for a bigger programme from
:00:07. > :00:12.home this morning. Matthew Mitcham is in the middle of the pack with
:00:12. > :00:20.an outstanding performance last night. The two Chinese and do not
:00:20. > :00:23.discount the two Germans. Martin Wolfram was great. Liam Taylor
:00:24. > :00:30.joins me now. There were some consistent dives, some consistent
:00:30. > :00:38.ones. Bobby Ball we did not expect, as well. -- from people we did not
:00:38. > :00:48.expect. The Mexicans, for example. Absolutely. The Mexicans were
:00:48. > :00:49.
:00:49. > :00:59.running hot. And then some people were faltering. Of course it starts
:00:59. > :01:02.
:01:02. > :01:12.an zero, a new day, and all six dive scout. Yue -- or six dieds
:01:12. > :01:26.
:01:26. > :01:31.Andy, his coach. Can we have a few words with him? He knows what he is
:01:31. > :01:36.doing. He has been here before. It is time to make it count. World
:01:36. > :01:41.Champion in 2009, lest we forget. European champion this year once
:01:41. > :01:48.again. We know that he is in decent form. We did not really see it last
:01:48. > :01:55.night. We will mark the card as we go again, the dives as they
:01:55. > :02:01.correspond to last night. Dive number five was really his undoing.
:02:01. > :02:09.We will be looking for that later in the programme. We will see each
:02:09. > :02:12.dive in reverse order. 18 goes first and first goes 18th. There
:02:12. > :02:21.will be some big-name casualties going into the final, almost
:02:21. > :02:26.certainly. Matthew Mitcham not quite on his game, the champion.
:02:26. > :02:29.David Boudia only just snuck into the semi-final and he will be first
:02:29. > :02:33.up. If the Mexicans get their programme together, they have a
:02:33. > :02:42.difficult the effort of 4.1. David Boudia is starting with a high
:02:42. > :02:52.tariff himself, through 0.6. His opening gambit in the semi-final. -
:02:52. > :03:12.
:03:12. > :03:16.- 3.6. Arms stand back double Very confident. Very confident to
:03:16. > :03:21.start with the arm stand. Divers can do the dive in any order, but
:03:21. > :03:27.they all have to do a hand stand, an inward, reverse and a twist. We
:03:27. > :03:31.will explain those as we go along. This is incredibly difficult, 3.6.
:03:31. > :03:39.David Boudia has opened his campaign with a high scoring dive
:03:39. > :03:43.and that will be in the high eighties. 88.20. He nearly did not
:03:43. > :03:50.come back today but he is right out there. It is above what we are
:03:50. > :03:56.expecting from others because they have lower tariff dives. Like Jose
:03:56. > :03:59.Antonio Guerra. The oldest by six years. That was lovely. He was the
:03:59. > :04:04.comeback King yesterday. His second dive in the preliminaries nearly
:04:04. > :04:12.failed. He managed to pull it all together and scrape back through in
:04:12. > :04:15.17th. He will be looking to up his game today. He did some marvellous
:04:15. > :04:25.dives but then that glaring error meant it was nearly all over. A
:04:25. > :04:28.
:04:28. > :04:31.wealth of experience. The 33. -- 33 years of age. Many of you know the
:04:31. > :04:40.scoring system by now, but for the converts to diving, of which there
:04:40. > :04:46.have been many, we will explain it. Gleb Galperin of Russia. Not quite
:04:46. > :04:51.as good as yesterday's opening. He is over vertical as he enters the
:04:51. > :04:56.water. The judging works like this. Seven Execution judges mark it out
:04:56. > :05:02.of a maximum of 10. The two highest and two lowest are discounted to
:05:02. > :05:08.make an average. The total is multiplied by the degree of
:05:08. > :05:16.difficulty, 3.2 in this case. That gives the total of 81.6. Easy when
:05:16. > :05:26.you know how! The crowd expected, the crowd wanting Tom Daley to open
:05:26. > :05:34.
:05:34. > :05:44.up more impressively than he did same, the back two-and-a-half
:05:44. > :05:44.
:05:44. > :05:48.somersault with pike. Well, it is not a sensational start that we
:05:48. > :05:52.were hoping for. He is marginally short of vertical but it is a step
:05:52. > :05:57.up from last night. He might get over 80. But it depends how mean
:05:57. > :06:02.that judges are feeling. Two-and-a- half twists, just finishing low in
:06:02. > :06:07.the water. Much more like it from Tom. There is more in the tank but
:06:07. > :06:12.that was a steady start. He over rotated in the brilliance. He is
:06:12. > :06:16.playing it safe in the semi-final. -- he over rotated in the
:06:16. > :06:26.preliminaries. They are fighting against gravity. They go into the
:06:26. > :06:27.
:06:27. > :06:37.shower to keep warm. Yes, more than 80. 81. 7.5 will count towards the
:06:37. > :07:13.
:07:13. > :07:18.year. He thought about that. You could really hear a pin drop. He
:07:19. > :07:25.did the very good job with it. A good dive in his preliminaries, but
:07:25. > :07:31.faltering in two out of six. That is a very good start, 3.2

:08:14. > :08:18.needed to be good. Unfortunately, he let it over rotate. He stayed in

:08:40. > :08:45.afford to be off your game. 18 will be reduced to 12. Some have done
:08:46. > :08:55.very well to get here in the first place. But the Kohl will take place

:09:14. > :09:18.close to the diving board sometimes. It is not dangerously close but I
:09:18. > :09:23.would not want to see them any closer. The judges do not get to
:09:23. > :09:27.see the replay, just to remind you. Yes, a little bit too close for
:09:27. > :09:30.comfort. There is a fine line between jumping too far away and
:09:30. > :09:36.not making the dive and of course staying too close to the diving
:09:36. > :09:46.board. We get the benefit of three lovely replace. The judges see it

:33:09. > :33:15.The Mexicans are really coming in to challenge the supremacy of some
:33:15. > :33:19.of the top diving nations. Exciting young divers. Just so exciting to
:33:19. > :33:23.watch. Over the past couple of years they have been doing these
:33:23. > :33:27.big dives but they have been here and there without impacting on the
:33:27. > :33:33.standings but now they are mixing it up with the very best. Fantastic
:33:33. > :33:37.from Sanchez. They have a very high tariff programme which can go
:33:37. > :33:47.terribly wrong. It can be a remarkably right when it is on its

:34:21. > :34:25.of the degree of difficulty, that will go well over 85 points. That
:34:25. > :34:32.will keep him well up in the business end of the field. I have
:34:32. > :34:35.not seen many 90s so far but here comes one. Not a high is that he is
:34:35. > :34:44.going to go to. There will be a 4.1 from both of them I didn't before

:35:54. > :35:58.for the divers that are performing exceptionally well in the
:35:58. > :36:04.preliminaries, but this was decisive. High risk, the high
:36:04. > :36:08.degree of difficulty, and he has got it all going on. That is two
:36:08. > :36:18.out of two for Sascha Klein. It is bunching up in the business end of
:36:18. > :36:19.
:36:19. > :36:24.the field. More of an inclined than a decline for Sascha Klein. We are
:36:24. > :36:34.registering some more 90s now. They can still improve. We can improve
:36:34. > :36:37.
:36:37. > :36:42.upon it tonight, probably. That was just spot on. A little bit of
:36:42. > :36:46.splash yesterday but none there this time. He jumps away from the
:36:46. > :36:51.diving board a safe distance and squeezes into the top shape. He
:36:51. > :37:01.just disappears into the water. Just his sheikh let him down,
:37:01. > :37:39.
:37:39. > :37:47.flattering his feet. -- his shape off was good. He entered the war to
:37:47. > :37:52.keeping the body tension, -- the water. A little bit early, a little
:37:52. > :37:56.bit flash. He needed to hang on a little bit. He was giving the
:37:56. > :38:00.impression that it was easier than it was. When Qiu Bo makes an error
:38:00. > :38:10.it is only slight and he will still get it to for points. Is that right
:38:10. > :38:12.
:38:12. > :38:15.for that dive? -- gets 85 points. Yes. We expect efficiency and total
:38:15. > :38:20.accuracy from the Chinese and that was just a little bit off which is
:38:20. > :38:24.why they are not in the top three. Martin Wolfram. Who would have put
:38:24. > :38:34.money on him leading after round to? He has been so precise in
:38:34. > :38:54.
:38:54. > :38:58.everything he has done in the first chance of making the top 12 apart
:38:58. > :39:06.from Gleb Galperin. Round three of six in the men's ten-metre platform
:39:06. > :39:15.semi-final. Tom Daley, time to get going in the preliminary is a
:39:15. > :39:21.little bit. He is currently 9th with 18 divers. Some big tariffs
:39:22. > :39:29.still to come. Tom Daley's biggest dive still to come. David Boudia
:39:29. > :39:34.will open round three, the American, in 6th place at the moment. This
:39:34. > :39:44.dive has become the staple diet of divers at this level, the forward
:39:44. > :39:55.
:39:55. > :40:00.so difficult. The governing body of diving rejigged the degrees of
:40:00. > :40:05.difficulty to make this even more valuable. It used to be 3.5 and it
:40:05. > :40:09.is now 3.7. It was just too tempting for the divers to resist.
:40:10. > :40:15.It is high risk. It can all go wrong, but not for David Boudia
:40:15. > :40:23.today. Sailing over 90 points to 94.35. The beady different from
:40:23. > :40:33.last night. -- completely different. You can see why he has so many gold
:40:33. > :40:48.
:40:48. > :40:54.top, 3.2 difficulty. He has come out all guns blazing this morning,
:40:54. > :41:01.with another fantastic dive. Technically spot on. The pike is
:41:01. > :41:06.just a touch short of vertical for a 10 but he should get nines. He
:41:06. > :41:11.continues with the successful campaign so far. Three out of three
:41:11. > :41:17.for Jose Antonio Guerra. Getting nines is not too far away and he
:41:17. > :41:22.has gone up to second. The 2007 World Champion is having his
:41:22. > :41:31.problems. He started so well last night and faltered. He is faltering
:41:31. > :41:35.early on, Gleb Galperin. It is a very good dive, but as we have been
:41:35. > :41:41.discussing, 3.0 does leave you off the pace, especially if the other
:41:41. > :41:48.divers perform before four-and-a- half, which is 3.7. His arms Stand
:41:48. > :41:58.went drastically wrong and he has got a lot of work to do. That will
:41:58. > :41:58.
:41:58. > :42:08.not move him off the bottom spot. 72 is solid but semi-finals of this
:42:08. > :42:40.
:42:40. > :42:46.Daley! Just a little bit loose as he entered the water but he did
:42:46. > :42:52.keep the splashdown. The all- important entry into the water. His
:42:52. > :43:01.mother is watching on nervously. Tom moving away from the diving
:43:01. > :43:08.board. He just sneaks it in, good enough for 80 points. This is the
:43:08. > :43:12.super slow-motion, squeezing in. Just entering the water. Trying to
:43:12. > :43:22.keep the splashdown and he does a great job. Well done, that man.
:43:22. > :43:32.Three out of three in a semi-final for Tom Daley. He goes into second
:43:32. > :43:55.
:43:55. > :44:00.top, 3.2 difficulty. It is good. Thinking about it a lot seems to
:44:00. > :44:06.work for him. Some divers go much quicker. He stands there for what
:44:06. > :44:10.seems to be an eternity. Entering the water just marginally short of
:44:10. > :44:20.vertical. Clean but not as good as Tom Daley. He will be middle of the
:44:20. > :44:20.
:44:21. > :44:27.pack but good enough to make it through to the all-important top 12.
:44:27. > :44:31.79.2, below Tom Daley with a succession of eight.
:44:31. > :44:36.STUDIO: Tom Daley has done a third of the six dives that he will do.

:45:34. > :45:35.
:45:35. > :45:45.now breaks into a brilliant big smile. He dominated the field since

:50:00. > :50:10.here is the Russian pair, they worked so well and did not give

:50:11. > :50:16.anything away. They dominated it and make sure that title was theirs.
:50:16. > :50:24.They have dominated the World Cup events, and won two out of the

:50:42. > :50:46.and Dyachenko. I think we half- expected it. Especially during the
:50:46. > :50:50.early stages here at Eton Dorney. But they did not leave anything to
:50:50. > :51:00.chance. The Brits got out really strong within, but then they pulled
:51:00. > :51:13.
:51:13. > :51:18.away. This is confirmation of the Schofield and Liam Heath, they have
:51:18. > :51:24.always been on the podium. They got together in 2010, and have had
:51:24. > :51:29.enormous success together. European titles, world champions, World Cups,
:51:29. > :51:38.they have been brilliant. Liam Heath is due to get married a
:51:38. > :51:43.couple of weeks, and he proposed to his fiancee with a pot of ice-
:51:43. > :51:48.cream! Hopefully he can do more for her now. The Russians were
:51:48. > :51:54.outstanding. But Liam Heath and Jon Schofield can hold their heads up
:51:54. > :51:58.high. They both live in Maidenhead, near by, so this would have been a
:51:58. > :52:07.special moment to compete for their country on the water here at Eton
:52:07. > :52:14.Dorney. They have done They attended the same university,
:52:14. > :52:18.and did lots of stuff together. they have rarely shown that when we
:52:18. > :52:25.have watched them. Fantastic team work. You get a sense of the close
:52:25. > :52:29.relationship. Their bronze medal takes us to 59 medals altogether.
:52:29. > :52:33.Fantastic the way they did that, given how strong the Russian gold-
:52:33. > :52:39.medallists were. Yes, the Russians were brilliant yesterday, they were
:52:39. > :52:46.so good in the heats and semi- finals. When I spoke to them
:52:46. > :52:49.yesterday, I asked them how to claw it back, and they said the only way
:52:49. > :52:54.they could was to make a good start. They made a good start but the
:52:54. > :52:58.Russians were immense from the start. They were so good and
:52:58. > :53:01.extended their advantage. Normally when you make a good start it leads
:53:01. > :53:11.you vulnerable in the closing stages, but they were so strong at
:53:11. > :53:13.
:53:13. > :53:17.the end, that was very impressive. Hats off to Liam and John. -- Jon.
:53:17. > :53:22.This was a new distance for London 2012. How did it go down? We are
:53:22. > :53:27.very happy with it! Bronze medal for them, and Jessica Walker
:53:27. > :53:32.getting to the final earlier. Altogether it has gone down pretty
:53:32. > :53:39.well for us. For the sport, it has gone down well because the 200-
:53:39. > :53:44.metre races are so much more exciting, they provide excitement,
:53:44. > :53:50.and it has proved very popular down here at Eton Dorney. They are just
:53:50. > :53:56.about to make their way here, and we saw John looking worse for wear
:53:57. > :54:02.after that. Here they come now. We're going to have a word with
:54:02. > :54:05.them. Tremendous. A very good performance, we knew that the
:54:05. > :54:11.Russians were going to be tough, but you gave it everything and we
:54:11. > :54:15.are all proud of what you have done. That was a really long race. Their
:54:15. > :54:21.head wind like that, that adds a few seconds on which does not sound
:54:21. > :54:31.much, but when you are going at that pace, it drags out. I am so
:54:31. > :54:41.pleased. This is the golden couple of canoeing, Jon Schofield and
:54:41. > :54:43.
:54:43. > :54:49.Rachel Cawthorn. A lovely moment for Rachel to be here. Let us get
:54:49. > :54:54.your reaction to that performance today. We knew how much that two
:54:54. > :54:58.out of you. Yes, that was a long race. I did not think we would make
:54:58. > :55:03.it to the end. The last day has been horrible, we were not happy
:55:04. > :55:08.with the heat and we were worried coming into this. But Liam Heath
:55:08. > :55:14.goes quiet, thinks, and comes out with the right reaction. That start
:55:14. > :55:20.was amazing, and we held it. Major, how proud Are You of them? I am so
:55:21. > :55:23.proud of them. I have been living with Liam for the last year, and
:55:23. > :55:28.every single day they have been the most professional athletes you
:55:29. > :55:33.could find anywhere, working on every single little thing to get as
:55:33. > :55:37.fast as they could. I was so nervous watching, but it was great.
:55:37. > :55:45.I am going to let you go, but that was a tremendous performance. You
:55:45. > :55:49.always win medals, well done! What a boost for the canoe sprint
:55:49. > :55:56.team. The day started with the gold medal for red meat cleaver in the
:55:56. > :56:00.single event, then the bronze medal in the Kayak Double event. This is
:56:00. > :56:06.the final day of the competition, and we had four finals all over the
:56:06. > :56:09.shorter and new Olympic distance of 200m. It is all happening in the
:56:09. > :56:19.Aquatics Centre, Tom Daley and all the divers are in the middle of the
:56:19. > :56:30.
:56:30. > :56:40.six dives that they have to do in in their performance. Now, the two
:56:40. > :56:51.
:56:51. > :56:55.push 100 points. This is near on perfect. He is marginally short of
:56:56. > :57:05.vertical, but that is the only thing wrong. Will he get over 100
:57:05. > :57:10.points? What a dive! What have the judges seen, remember they do not
:57:10. > :57:20.get the benefit of replays from different angles, they only see it
:57:20. > :57:25.in real time. There is one score of 10 points. That will not count.
:57:26. > :57:35.That is putting pressure on his Chinese team mate. This is chi ball,
:57:36. > :57:51.
:57:51. > :57:54.reversed the 1/2 somersaults. -- change out of 9.5s on that. Use
:57:54. > :58:04.just tipping over from vertigo, which is the only thing wrong. --
:58:04. > :58:43.
:58:43. > :58:53.night, but his third today. There is not a huge gap between the top
:58:53. > :59:00.
:59:00. > :59:05.German Sanchez has a 4.1 difficulty still to come, and there is Tom
:59:05. > :59:15.Daley going through his preparations. Change of judges at
:59:15. > :59:29.
:59:29. > :59:39.judges go off, and the second group of judges come on. This is David
:59:39. > :59:44.
:59:44. > :59:50.in the preliminaries, silver medal at the Shanghai World Championships.
:59:50. > :59:55.Reverse jumping away from the diving board, straight up and down
:59:55. > :00:00.into the water. Mid-80s for him. Very consistent this morning. That
:00:00. > :00:04.will keep him in the Top End, behind the two Chinese. I wondered
:00:05. > :00:14.where he was last night, because we expected him to do what he did in
:00:15. > :00:48.
:00:48. > :00:51.Those in the crowd will do. The very well. Just leaving the dive
:00:51. > :00:55.and little bit short but the entry have no splash. That is very
:00:55. > :00:59.difficult. You have to be courageous and a bit crazy to do it.
:01:00. > :01:06.You have got to cut through in between your hands and the platform
:01:06. > :01:15.and spin around three times, holding on. He needed to wait a
:01:15. > :01:19.little bit longer in the shape but he will get 8s. This is a serious
:01:19. > :01:22.question. What will they have had for breakfast? The Olympic Village
:01:22. > :01:31.offers all sorts but they will have had to have something like, I
:01:31. > :01:35.expect, because you do not do that on a full English! A uncomfortable!
:01:35. > :01:45.It was a serious question because I do not know what divers have one
:01:45. > :01:48.there is only a 12 hour turnaround. Gleb Galperin will be getting
:01:48. > :01:52.cheering from his team-mates because that was spot on but he has
:01:52. > :01:56.left too much to do because you faltered on his second dive. You
:01:56. > :02:02.cannot make a big mistake like he did, even though that really gets
:02:02. > :02:12.90 points. It is not good enough to drop one as drastically as he did
:02:12. > :02:39.
:02:39. > :02:45.in round two. 89.1 should cheer him low on the water but he played the
:02:45. > :02:50.waiting game. He pops out, stays tight in his body and gets it. It
:02:50. > :02:56.was good last night and even better today. He has been consistent. This
:02:56. > :03:01.will get over 85 points as well. A high degree of difficulty. Four out
:03:01. > :03:06.of four for Tom Daley. He needs to squeeze into the top shape making
:03:06. > :03:13.himself as small as possible to complete all the rotations. He does
:03:13. > :03:23.well to hold on tight. Plenty of fans in here will be delighted to
:03:23. > :03:27.
:03:28. > :03:37.behind David Boudia. That is much more like it. We were concerned
:03:38. > :04:03.
:04:03. > :04:11.bit. Steady balance in the armstand. Twitching in the toes to get ready.
:04:11. > :04:19.Two-and-a-half twists, his pike is too fierce and over he goes. It
:04:19. > :04:29.will keep him in contention because of the degree of difficulty. I
:04:29. > :04:31.
:04:31. > :04:41.think he will scrape into the 80s. You judges, new pairs of eyes. 81.0.
:04:41. > :04:54.
:04:54. > :04:59.truck. Very good but low on the degree of difficulty. His next two
:04:59. > :05:03.will be relatively low which will leave him off the pace. The
:05:03. > :05:08.execution is very good but it will not move him up the field. Great
:05:08. > :05:18.that he has made it through. One of the surprises for me to see in the
:05:18. > :05:28.
:05:28. > :05:38.semi-final, especially so high up. those that have will probably get
:05:38. > :05:48.
:05:48. > :05:55.indeed, Anton Zakharov. Sometimes he shows inconsistency. Today he is
:05:55. > :06:05.solid. Four out of four will put in their or thereabouts. Behind Tom
:06:05. > :06:07.
:06:07. > :06:17.Daley, probably. -- put him there or thereabouts. 84 point 15, yes,
:06:17. > :06:18.
:06:18. > :06:28.just behind Tom Daley by four marks. This man is flirting with exclusion
:06:28. > :06:38.
:06:38. > :06:42.and inclusion depending on how this with 3.3 difficulty. -- triple
:06:42. > :06:49.somersault. Superb from Riley McCormick just when he needed it.
:06:49. > :06:52.He is in contention but just outside in 13th with the top 12
:06:52. > :06:58.making it through. This was decisive. Just tipping over a
:06:58. > :07:05.little bit as he goes in. It depends how much the judges
:07:05. > :07:15.penalised him for over rotating. Looking to get into the 80s.
:07:15. > :07:25.Blowing the cheeks and no smile. Not totally happy. Body language
:07:25. > :07:48.
:07:48. > :07:53.indicates he is agonising about half twists. Very precise. He has
:07:53. > :08:01.left themselves too much to do, back down in 16th. The writ entry,
:08:01. > :08:11.splash of the century. It sounds like you are tearing the Water Park.
:08:11. > :08:13.
:08:13. > :08:23.Rolling very -- tearing the water apart. Rawling very quickly. Very
:08:23. > :08:35.
:08:35. > :08:42.good dive nonetheless. He has middle board and the big board, but
:08:42. > :08:52.he is not bored judging by his face! The former Olympic champion,
:08:52. > :08:52.
:08:52. > :08:58.Matthew Mitcham. Wonderful dive. He is just starting to turn it on.
:08:58. > :09:03.Write about the time he needs it as well. He was 11th after three
:09:03. > :09:12.rounds as well. He is showing is the motion, which not many do.
:09:12. > :09:22.Beautiful dive from the Olympic champion. He is gradually cranking
:09:22. > :09:34.
:09:34. > :09:44.emotion. Unusual for divers to celebrate in between dives. He got
:09:44. > :09:59.
:09:59. > :10:09.110 but it does not count towards Matthew Mitcham and this is exactly
:10:09. > :10:10.
:10:10. > :10:14.the same dive. He has just scored 9.5, and Nicholas McCrory is not
:10:14. > :10:19.quite as good. Over rotation and more splash, but still holding it
:10:19. > :10:27.together under the pressure. Fighting fiercely for a spot in the
:10:27. > :10:31.final. This is a tough competition. 89.1. That is one mark and a half
:10:31. > :10:34.less than Matthew Mitcham, which could be very important at the end
:10:34. > :10:44.of things when we tot up the standings at the end of round six.
:10:44. > :11:01.
:11:01. > :11:08.Shanghai. Sneaky! I thought he was going to over rotate because he
:11:08. > :11:14.stayed in the top shape very long. He managed to fix it. He jiggles
:11:14. > :11:24.about in such a way that he plonks it right on his head. 90. For this
:11:24. > :11:28.
:11:28. > :11:38.young man as well. And nobody giving anything away. It to 9.10,
:11:38. > :11:39.
:11:39. > :11:49.that button getting worn out by the judges. -- 89.10. The Mexicans do
:11:49. > :12:21.
:12:21. > :12:30.not even think about the 3.1 and This will be in the 80s as well. He
:12:30. > :12:33.held the armstand for quite a long time. Up into the double twist.
:12:33. > :12:39.Double somersault, two-and-a-half twist, just tipping over past
:12:39. > :12:44.vertical, so he will be penalised. 7 and a half from the judges but a
:12:44. > :12:54.high degree of difficulty. Over 80 is just fine for why he needs to
:12:54. > :12:57.
:12:57. > :13:04.qualify. -- for where he needs. That is his weakest dive so far.
:13:04. > :13:14.4.1 time everybody! Don't put the kettle on. In with 4 and a half
:13:14. > :13:36.
:13:37. > :13:46.somersaults. I find it incredible when he went into the water but he
:13:47. > :13:47.
:13:47. > :13:53.completes the dive. Such ease. Four! Just letting his feet go when
:13:53. > :14:02.he gets in so the judges will penalise for the big splash but he
:14:02. > :14:06.will sail over 80 points because it is 4.1 degree of difficulty. His
:14:06. > :14:15.coach is conferring for what he needs to do next time. But will he
:14:15. > :14:25.get another next time? He is 11th now. High gambling stakes. It is
:14:25. > :14:31.
:14:31. > :14:36.nowhere near as big as he would pike for Martin Wolfram. He has
:14:36. > :14:42.nailed another one. Very consistent last night. Faltering marginally on
:14:42. > :14:50.his third round dive but this one much better. This is a dive that
:14:50. > :14:54.Tom Daley was faltering on last night. Martin Wolfram is very much
:14:54. > :15:02.in contention. Sanchez made a mistake on his third round dive
:15:02. > :15:12.which is why he has points to make- up. 86.4, so no concerns for Martin
:15:12. > :15:29.
:15:29. > :15:39.who he looks up to a lot. Sascha since the preliminary. Six out of
:15:39. > :15:39.
:15:40. > :15:44.six, and that has four out of four, in this morning's semi-final. Just
:15:44. > :15:54.over 90 points when you do it like that. Fantastic diving from Sascha
:15:54. > :16:15.
:16:15. > :16:22.Klein. He will be a medal contender place, but not for much longer.
:16:22. > :16:32.had a 100 dive in the previous round, and another spot on dive. He
:16:32. > :16:48.
:16:48. > :16:58.tuck the shape. This is a little bit split. But it is a good dive.
:16:58. > :17:08.So difficult to keep up. He is not happy with the marks. He is being
:17:08. > :17:29.
:17:29. > :17:36.harsh on himself. That is pretty times. But the time I see him in
:17:36. > :17:46.training, he is so consistent. -- every time I see him. China will be
:17:46. > :18:03.
:18:03. > :18:11.first and second at the end of this standings? Chain Bar first and
:18:11. > :18:21.second, as you might expect. David Boudia, then Sascha Klein them, --
:18:21. > :18:39.
:18:39. > :18:43.Sascha Klein, M Martin Wolfram, Tom little bit of room, but everyone
:18:43. > :18:49.else from Sascha Klein all the way down, eight points separates him
:18:49. > :18:53.all the way down to Matthew Mitcham. Looking for a good finish in the
:18:53. > :19:03.semi-final to get a good order to dive win in the final. They dives
:19:03. > :19:28.
:19:28. > :19:33.day. He was faltering and the prelims, so he is the first diver
:19:33. > :19:37.in the semi-final. He has another 3.6 difficulty to come, but this
:19:37. > :19:42.was the riskiest. He has done a good job. He will get over 80
:19:43. > :19:49.points. Just tipping over as he goes, keeps the splashdown, but not
:19:49. > :19:59.quite. That is the lowest mark he has got today, which is pretty
:19:59. > :20:15.
:20:15. > :20:25.impressive. There is a smile on the with tuck. -- 3.5 somersaults.
:20:25. > :20:30.
:20:30. > :20:38.is very good. Hardly any splash. goes into the water. -- short of
:20:38. > :20:45.vertical. That could prove critical for him, because he is in the fight
:20:45. > :20:53.for the minor places in the final, and that is not going to help.
:20:53. > :21:03.Mark is not bad, but if you get less than 8.5, you are on the brink
:21:03. > :21:07.
:21:07. > :21:15.of exclusion, and it is probably Galperin. But he has left himself a
:21:15. > :21:22.lot to do. This is going to get 90 points. You can see how far off the
:21:22. > :21:26.pace years from where you should be. No one is faltering enough for him
:21:26. > :21:36.to climb back up the field. Appreciation for that dive, it is
:21:36. > :22:14.
:22:15. > :22:19.gone to their feet, and so they should be. That is the dive of the
:22:19. > :22:23.competition so far for this young man. Finally finding his form. This
:22:23. > :22:31.is the kind of promise he has been showing for four months coming into
:22:31. > :22:41.these Games, and when he needed it, he goes over 90 points. You can
:22:41. > :22:45.
:22:46. > :22:55.relax in Plymouth. Job almost done. This is Victor Minibaev. 12th place
:22:56. > :23:19.
:23:19. > :23:25.time before he starts his dives. It seems to work for him. I used to
:23:25. > :23:31.get tired if I stood there for too long, wanting to crack on. But
:23:31. > :23:36.Victor Minibaev did a good job, it was the same dive as Tom Daley, but
:23:36. > :23:46.he was marginally over. You can start to compare and contrast. And
:23:46. > :24:08.
:24:08. > :24:12.asked how the degree of difficulty is calculated. If you do a back to
:24:12. > :24:16.the 0.5 somersault, in a tuck position, it carries a 3.3
:24:16. > :24:26.difficulty, but in the paper position it carries a 3.6 degree of
:24:26. > :24:27.
:24:27. > :24:37.difficulty. It is more difficult in the paper position, -- pike
:24:37. > :24:43.position. A differential of 10 points between him, Tom Daley and
:24:43. > :24:53.Victor Minibaev. That is the penalty he will have to pay for not
:24:53. > :24:56.
:24:56. > :25:01.going for a higher tariff. This is a back trouble somersault. That was
:25:01. > :25:05.tricky. He has his head in his hands. You cannot make a mistake
:25:05. > :25:12.like that and then make it through. He was on fire. You have to flick
:25:12. > :25:16.towards the tower with your feet, and this is the risk that you take.
:25:16. > :25:22.It is easy to mess up these difficulties. That is what he has
:25:22. > :25:28.done. We're looking for her mid-80s, but he has got 36. He has lost 50
:25:28. > :25:38.points on that. That will allow a Riley McCormick, provided he backs
:25:38. > :25:50.
:25:50. > :25:54.it up with added dive of his own, very neat and tidy, but marginally
:25:54. > :26:04.short as he goes in. He will have been looking for an entry without
:26:04. > :26:07.
:26:07. > :26:11.splash. That is going to get him eights. It is coming out to the
:26:11. > :26:15.final dive, as it often does in these contests. The boys have all
:26:15. > :26:20.woken up and are starting to dive at the best of their abilities.
:26:20. > :26:30.Much more pleasant to commentate on. With standards like this, you
:26:30. > :26:38.
:26:38. > :26:48.Anton Zakharov has gone below them. -- he will move up a place. You
:26:48. > :26:49.
:26:49. > :26:53.include a weary, three-and-a-half somersault. -- Jeinkel Aguirre.
:26:53. > :26:57.had great preliminaries, but he is being outclassed. This is where you
:26:57. > :27:06.stand for words, jumbo away from the diving board, it is so
:27:06. > :27:16.difficult. You can only see where you have been. He came out too
:27:16. > :27:22.
:27:22. > :27:25.and that will be it in terms of his competition. Matthew Mitcham has
:27:25. > :27:35.made his way up the standings, but he was in danger of not making it
:27:35. > :27:51.
:27:51. > :28:01.through. He has given himself a see him in 8th position after the
:28:01. > :28:05.
:28:05. > :28:13.4th round. He has thrown up to much splash. A massive impact, 35 mph.
:28:13. > :28:23.He rotated a little bit slowly, did not quite get the correct entries.
:28:23. > :28:36.
:28:36. > :28:46.McCrory is too close for comfort, however, in terms of progression.
:28:46. > :29:07.
:29:07. > :29:17.McCrory absolutely nails his back spot on. I think it was worth a
:29:17. > :29:31.
:29:31. > :29:41.little bit more than that. But them do not count, then the rest
:29:41. > :29:42.
:29:42. > :29:48.are added together under multiplied he has stepped up and delivered
:29:48. > :29:58.when he needed to. Right on the cusp of qualification. He just
:29:58. > :30:00.
:30:00. > :30:04.watched his team-mate Mika hotch potch of his dive. One more good
:30:04. > :30:14.dive away from a place in the Olympic final. I thought you said
:30:14. > :30:26.
:30:26. > :30:36.hot port for a moment! -- hot pot! Jose Garcia, also -- Ivan Garcia,
:30:36. > :31:06.
:31:06. > :31:12.with tuck. Well, he has had four good dives in the 80s but that one
:31:12. > :31:22.might not. Just over rotating as he goes into the water. The take-off
:31:22. > :31:22.
:31:22. > :31:26.is good. Yes, that is the worst dive we have seen from Garcia. With
:31:26. > :31:36.some good ones being mobbed by his competitors, that could move in
:31:36. > :31:55.
:31:55. > :32:05.down the standings. -- move him did for him. This needs to be good.
:32:05. > :32:14.
:32:14. > :32:19.watched his team mate make a mess of this exact same dive. That is a
:32:19. > :32:24.bit harsh. He faltered. Sanchez has got some work to do. His third
:32:24. > :32:28.round dive only scored 36 and he has left himself way off the pace.
:32:28. > :32:38.He needs to be close to 90 and if it is, he is getting the combat
:32:38. > :32:40.
:32:40. > :32:50.going. He is in 10th place at the moment. With the Chinese to come,
:32:50. > :33:13.
:33:13. > :33:17.easily, if anything too easily, over rotating as he went in. The
:33:17. > :33:20.two-and-a-half twists, into the two-and-a-half somersault. It is
:33:20. > :33:25.all good and he tucks his chin and let it go over slightly into the
:33:25. > :33:29.water. Because of the degree of difficulty that will get mid- 80s.
:33:29. > :33:36.His campaign to get into the Olympic final at the age of 20 is
:33:36. > :33:46.very much alive. Just one dive to go. One more of a similar standard
:33:46. > :33:50.
:33:50. > :33:59.and he will be in his first Olympic experienced German. Reverse the and
:33:59. > :34:07.a half somersaults. Faltering. and a half somersaults. His coaches
:34:07. > :34:15.clapping but it is polite rather than rapturous. The war to smacking
:34:15. > :34:25.him on the back of his legs. -- the water. That will be mid-70s, moving
:34:25. > :34:29.
:34:29. > :34:39.him down from where he once was. Bunching up even more now. He is in
:34:39. > :34:54.
:34:54. > :35:01.4th place. Two points ahead of the standings so far. You do not
:35:01. > :35:05.expect to see that form. Almost emptying the pool. Top bombing.
:35:05. > :35:11.That is not what we expect from this young man. He has been
:35:11. > :35:15.exemplary until now. He missed his hands as he went in. They slipped
:35:15. > :35:18.apart. That feels like somebody smashing a baseball bat on the top
:35:18. > :35:23.of your head. He will be dizzy after that and he will be dizzy
:35:23. > :35:33.when he sees the scoreboard. If you get the chance, he will put it
:35:33. > :35:48.
:35:48. > :35:57.right tonight. He is just ahead of from Qiu Bo this morning or last
:35:57. > :36:02.night but it is good enough. It is an error, but only slight from this
:36:02. > :36:08.consistent young man. He will still get over 90 points. When you make
:36:08. > :36:18.an error and still go over 90, it is still very good indeed. He stays
:36:18. > :36:24.so tight and he gets that clean entry. It is handy being World
:36:24. > :36:32.Champion, that is all I say! little generous to Qiu Bo, shall we
:36:32. > :36:42.say? That is the highest Tom Daley has been in a preliminary is or the
:36:42. > :36:49.semi-final. Up to 4th place. -- in the preliminaries. Look at that
:36:49. > :36:57.scrap for 12th place. Matthew Mitcham just in, Nicholas McCrory
:36:57. > :37:05.Justine. It is mighty tight. Tom Daley has only got as many marks in
:37:05. > :37:10.this competition now as he got last night. 448.45 last night. 432 with
:37:10. > :37:13.one to go. That shows how under par he was last night. He was certainly
:37:13. > :37:20.feeling it last night and it is nice to see him relaxed and
:37:20. > :37:30.enjoying his diving and enjoying the occasion and shining. He will
:37:30. > :37:40.be forced up in the final round. -- 4th up. There is a reasonable gap
:37:40. > :37:49.
:37:49. > :37:56.between him and those scrapping for semi-final. Perfectly good this
:37:57. > :38:02.morning. He is opening up the semi- final. His last dive to get the
:38:02. > :38:05.spot last night, he certainly earned it with a great performance.
:38:05. > :38:11.He will smash the 500 barrier, as are many of the athletes this
:38:11. > :38:21.morning. The boys really coming out tonight in the final. Will they
:38:21. > :38:26.hold this or will be step it up a gear again? -- will they? David
:38:26. > :38:36.Boudia is the first with 531. will see many of them going over
:38:36. > :39:02.
:39:02. > :39:11.12th and he knows how close it is for the final. This is 3.6. Lots of
:39:11. > :39:18.them will use it to finish. It is big. If he gets 90 points, it will
:39:18. > :39:21.make him difficult to nudge out of the final. After a disastrous
:39:21. > :39:31.preliminary, Jose Antonio Reyes wearer was lucky to make it through.
:39:31. > :39:32.
:39:32. > :39:42.I think you have done enough. should be enough. He broke 500 as
:39:42. > :39:55.
:39:55. > :40:04.That second dive was really botched. He left himself way too much to do.
:40:04. > :40:14.That two-and-a-half twist, 3.6, it is good to finish. Not good enough
:40:14. > :40:25.
:40:25. > :40:35.to get through to the top 12 for Aquatics Centre. They are trying to
:40:35. > :40:44.
:40:44. > :40:48.Yes, Tom Daley is through! No question about that. Make no
:40:48. > :40:53.mistake. Tom has responded in exactly the way he needed to. He
:40:54. > :40:57.went to bed last night thinking, my goodness, what is it like? Now we
:40:57. > :41:01.has responded. He is going to smash the 500 barrier and he will
:41:01. > :41:06.definitely be in the top five, putting him in the business end of
:41:06. > :41:16.the field. The divers will dive in the reverse order. Consistent from
:41:16. > :41:18.
:41:18. > :41:23.Tom Daley. 89 to finish. compared to 440 in the

:41:39. > :41:52.
:41:52. > :41:59.to the final is all we needed. Well two-and-a-half twists. A great dive
:41:59. > :42:03.to finish. Tom Daley opted to use a 3.3 in the final round. He opened
:42:03. > :42:10.the programme with this dive. This is the best thing we have seen from
:42:10. > :42:14.Victor Minibaev. He absolutely spank it. 90 plus on this.
:42:14. > :42:18.Certainly a safe passage into the final. We have four members of the
:42:18. > :42:28.500 club already and there are still plenty to come. What a
:42:28. > :42:45.
:42:45. > :42:55.strongly. He is going to be towards the bottom of the 18. He has just
:42:55. > :42:57.
:42:57. > :43:00.been out last today. -- outclassed. The big guns have been firing and
:43:00. > :43:05.Victor does not have the ability to keep up. He has done remarkably
:43:05. > :43:09.well to keep up to this stage in the competition. He finishes with a
:43:09. > :43:17.big smile and a big thumbs-up, happy to be in the semi-final at
:43:17. > :43:27.the Olympics. And why wouldn't you be? 439 his final mark. Anton
:43:27. > :43:31.
:43:31. > :43:37.Zakharov was there and he seems to have thrown it away. That was good
:43:37. > :43:42.to finish but had two left himself too much to do? 15th after that
:43:42. > :43:47.poor fifth-round dive. He only scored 36. If you think that this
:43:47. > :43:53.will get nearly 90 points, just marginally over as he goes in, but
:43:53. > :44:00.spot on. He will have an agonising wait to watch the rest of the
:44:00. > :44:05.contest unfold to see if he scrapes through. 91.8. He has done pretty
:44:05. > :44:09.much all he could to get in. We have on our computer screen the
:44:09. > :44:13.marks. We get a little mark beside the names of the people that have
:44:13. > :44:23.definitely qualified and there is only one name on their so far,
:44:23. > :44:40.
:44:40. > :44:46.place to be. It was now or never and it was now! Magnificent! Just
:44:46. > :44:49.when he needed it. He has been dancing around from 10th to 14th
:44:49. > :44:57.and this will be good enough to make it through to the final.
:44:57. > :45:04.Superb. He is going to get way over 90 points. When the pressure is on,
:45:04. > :45:14.and you really needed it, he dug into his toy box and found that.
:45:14. > :45:14.
:45:14. > :46:07.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 47 seconds
:46:07. > :46:17.this morning. -- better dives. This is still a very good dive, in the
:46:17. > :46:17.
:46:17. > :47:02.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 47 seconds
:47:02. > :47:12.Daley and Victor Minibaev have all performed four years ago to snatch
:47:12. > :47:21.
:47:21. > :47:31.the Olympic medal. He was 11 of after the 5th round, and we have
:47:31. > :47:36.
:47:36. > :47:46.seen some good performance in this round. Matthew Mitcham could have
:47:46. > :47:46.
:47:46. > :48:38.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 47 seconds
:48:38. > :48:48.thrown it all away on the final dive. -- 11th. There is a high
:48:48. > :48:50.
:48:50. > :48:55.price on this final dive for the Ukrainian diver. I am not sure who
:48:55. > :49:00.that is, actually it is Matthew Mitcham, he knows he has not done
:49:00. > :49:10.enough to get through. Helicopter legs flicking around about the
:49:10. > :49:17.place. I think that will be good enough to get through. He is OK. He
:49:17. > :49:27.is OK with that 79.2. Not a particularly high mark, but it is
:49:27. > :49:36.
:49:36. > :49:41.finance efficient. -- that is fine, has let him run over a little bit.
:49:41. > :49:49.There is so much to do in this dive, you have to get a lot of for
:49:49. > :49:59.momentum in order to get through the twists. He let it run over a

:49:59. > :50:40.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 47 seconds
:50:40. > :50:44.gets close to 80, that will be Matthew Mitcham for that place.
:50:45. > :50:53.Matthew Mitcham faltered. This young man started off with 85, then
:50:53. > :50:58.91, then he blew out with a 36, but responded well. This is going to
:50:58. > :51:02.get more than 85, but will it be enough? Has he left himself too
:51:02. > :51:06.much to do? This is going to be close. No wonder Matthew Mitcham
:51:06. > :51:16.had his head in his hands. There will only be five points separating
:51:16. > :51:17.
:51:17. > :51:27.them. The judges say 88.8. He is five points behind, but Riley
:51:27. > :51:38.
:51:38. > :51:42.McCormick has qualified. That means but he nails it. Just marginally
:51:42. > :51:52.short. Very impressed with this young man, the younger of the
:51:52. > :51:57.
:51:57. > :52:07.German divers. More than 85 points to finish, into the 500 club. Very
:52:07. > :52:12.
:52:12. > :52:20.impressive. Better than the Tufty Club! Martin Wolfram has gone into
:52:20. > :52:30.third position. Riley McCormick has made it through, German Sanchez is
:52:30. > :52:36.
:52:36. > :52:45.not there yet. Matthew Mitcham is end. But he has done enough. He has
:52:45. > :52:50.moved down to the middle of the pack. That is not as sharp as
:52:50. > :53:00.yesterday, waiting at over rotate. He is just about going to scribble
:53:00. > :53:16.
:53:16. > :53:20.better tonight, but he has gone over 500. This is the penultimate
:53:20. > :53:30.diver in the semi-final. It is a battle between the Chinese as to
:53:30. > :53:31.
:53:31. > :53:41.who will emerge the top dog. who will emerge the top dog.
:53:41. > :53:50.
:53:50. > :54:00.entry into the water. He will finish above David Boudia and Tom
:54:00. > :54:14.
:54:14. > :54:17.leads Tom Daley by 10. That is going to change after this.
:54:17. > :54:27.Providing nothing untoward happens here, Matthew Mitcham is not

:54:56. > :55:00.doubt. Matthew Mitcham, the met 90s. A great dive to finish.
:55:00. > :55:10.563, which is pretty much what Tom Daley did at the European

:55:14. > :55:20.Championships. He wins the semi- not be able to defend his title
:55:20. > :55:26.tonight because he does not return. Matthew Mitcham is in 13th place,
:55:26. > :55:36.missing out by one spot. Missing out in the end by 13 points. These
:55:36. > :55:36.
:55:36. > :55:45.are the ones returning. Tom Daley performed much better than last
:55:45. > :55:55.night. Two Germans there, and the ecstasy and the agony on one page.
:55:55. > :55:59.
:55:59. > :56:04.Up to 12 are happy, after 12 are last position, but it is Tom Daley
:56:04. > :56:14.who will return pushing for the medals in the final, and the
:56:14. > :56:14.
:56:14. > :56:20.They certainly are. What a fantastic morning in the Aquatics
:56:20. > :56:24.Centre. Tom Daley is comfortably through to the final tonight. He is
:56:24. > :56:34.with Nick hope now. Congratulations. Much better than
:56:34. > :56:35.
:56:35. > :56:42.last night. Yes, it was a lot qualified for the final, so I have
:56:42. > :56:48.completely turned around my performance, as did David Boudia.
:56:48. > :56:55.We turned around a long it. In the prelims yesterday, was there any
:56:55. > :56:59.effect from the synchronised? You got so close to a medal there.
:56:59. > :57:03.it feels weird going into another competition knowing the
:57:03. > :57:09.disappointment been so close yet so far away. Going into the individual,
:57:09. > :57:13.I wanted to prove a point, give it my best shot. It was difficult, but
:57:13. > :57:19.I am happy that I made the semi- finals and now the final. Anything
:57:19. > :57:25.can happen tonight. 521 is a good score, but you are capable of 565,
:57:25. > :57:29.which she got in Europe. Can you recapture that? I am getting
:57:29. > :57:32.sharper and sharper, and it is hard to compete in a pre-let and semi-
:57:32. > :57:36.final when it does not count to the medals, but you need to do enough
:57:36. > :57:46.to qualify. That is the toughest part done, so now have done that I

:58:17. > :58:24.the medal table because there have been two medals this morning for
:58:24. > :58:29.Great Britain. We are up to 26 gold medals, with a total of 59, thanks
