:03:05. > :03:08.the final day, Great Britain were in the silver-medal position. It

:05:13. > :05:41.
:05:41. > :05:51.Great Britain in that silver-medal round in her career for Mary King,
:05:51. > :05:52.
:05:52. > :06:02.both team and individual. That is that one out of the way. She is
:06:02. > :06:40.
:06:40. > :06:49.doing a very good job, she rode Just the last. Needs to clear this
:06:49. > :06:53.to keep silver in touch. Yes! And inside the time. And with in
:06:53. > :06:58.defence of the lead for the individual gold. Right now the
:06:58. > :07:05.temperature suddenly rises, and the royal party enjoyed that moment as
:07:05. > :07:10.20,000 people do here in Greenwich. Listen to the crowd.
:07:10. > :07:15.Fantastic, it you seem to beat in Super sink today. He did feel quite
:07:15. > :07:21.tense, not quite like I am used to, his head was a bit higher, he was
:07:21. > :07:25.jumping a little bit flatter but he jumped high enough to clear them.
:07:26. > :07:32.It clear round, not only will win it for Germany, with one rider
:07:32. > :07:37.still to come, but it will also put him in touching distance of all
:07:37. > :07:44.three titles, world, European, and Olympic. That has never been done
:07:44. > :07:54.before. 4th individually, at 40.6 clear to win it all with a time
:07:54. > :07:56.
:07:56. > :08:06.fault, just one, for Germany. This is a man who jumps 1.425, 1.58
:08:06. > :08:16.regularly. The tightest we have seen all day. A little bit least in
:08:16. > :08:27.
:08:27. > :08:34.front, the horse. He has toecap one into the air. Giving the next one a
:08:34. > :08:42.lot more air. Just needs to touch one a little harder for the Brits.
:08:42. > :08:52.Sorry, did I say that? What a pace. He is certainly very well aware of
:08:52. > :09:04.
:09:04. > :09:14.the last. It could be Germany's gold. It is Germany's gold. They
:09:14. > :09:21.

:10:29. > :10:36.in Hong Kong. It is in your hands, And now the combination. Time looks
:10:36. > :10:46.a bit uptight. She nearly lost the European title three times. Move on,
:10:46. > :10:47.
:10:47. > :10:55.Tina. Move on. Just get one time fault, it is silver for Great
:10:55. > :11:01.Britain, and she is still in there for an individual medal as well, it
:11:01. > :11:05.finishes on 43. Everybody loved that. Well done, Tina Cook.
:11:05. > :11:09.team have done so well, it was so close, we could have got silver or
:11:09. > :11:16.nothing. That would have been awful. Gold would have been brilliant,
:11:16. > :11:22.silver is fantastic. So, it was silver for Team GB. Handing out
:11:22. > :11:28.those medals, the Princess Royal, or mummy as Zara Phillips calls her,
:11:28. > :11:35.no doubt. Quite an occasion. The combined age of the team, 201,
:11:35. > :11:45.compared to the young gymnasts last night of 105. Twice they raged. A

:11:59. > :12:07.park, a lot of people milling around, ready for sport all over
:12:07. > :12:11.Brilliant, silver medal in the team competition but more medals
:12:11. > :12:13.available in the individual event with Mary King and Tina Cook who

:12:43. > :12:47.Less than one mile behind Mary King. it has gone. And another one. Sadly
:12:47. > :12:57.she will not repeat the bronze individual medal of the last
:12:57. > :13:32.
:13:32. > :13:38.tremendous job, she would have loved a medal. Waving to the crowd,
:13:38. > :13:42.listened to the response. What About Mary King? She has put up a
:13:42. > :13:52.great performance, can she finish it off. Bronze medal position at
:13:52. > :14:06.
:14:06. > :14:15.Mary King is going to drop down the leaderboard. The same defences have
:14:15. > :14:25.gone. For both the British riders. Dashed the same alacrity fences. --
:14:25. > :14:30.
:14:30. > :14:40.a fantastic job. The team, just disappointment. It would have been
:14:40. > :14:40.
:14:40. > :14:49.nice to have finished in style, it is not to be. She jumps the last,
:14:49. > :14:56.50.1. Can history be made here with the last two riders? Michael Jung,
:14:57. > :15:02.quite relaxed. He is on a score of 40.6. If he jumps clear he would
:15:02. > :15:05.put himself in with the chance of being the first man ever to hold
:15:05. > :15:15.the world, the European, and the Olympic title at the same time,
:15:15. > :15:41.
:15:41. > :15:51.afternoon that it did this morning. It rattled a few off the rails this
:15:51. > :16:13.
:16:13. > :16:21.Fantastic. Brilliant! It means it is all on. Here is the one back in
:16:22. > :16:31.for gold. Could she be the first lady rider to win an Olympic
:16:31. > :16:37.eventing title? Just one time fault could be afforded, but no more.
:16:37. > :16:44.Jumped a brilliant round this morning. You would have to say on
:16:44. > :16:51.that performance putting your money on it, another clear round. But the
:16:51. > :17:01.pressure is phenomenal. I think it is allergic to these jumps at the
:17:01. > :17:12.
:17:13. > :17:22.moment! You can hear a pin drop here. It is going to be history
:17:23. > :17:34.
:17:34. > :17:42.whichever way this happens. Down the final line. Yes! It has gone!
:17:42. > :17:48.Their very last fence has gone. She will stay with the silver. It is
:17:48. > :17:54.not going to be the first lady ever to win gold. But it is the first
:17:54. > :18:01.time that anyone has held the world, the European and the Olympic title.
:18:01. > :18:05.That is Michael Jung. Teams silver medallists, sadly no medals in the
:18:05. > :18:11.individual competition. There is obviously disappointment for both
:18:11. > :18:17.of you afterwards, but performances to be proud dove. First, Mary, you
:18:17. > :18:21.6th Olympics. This actually was my first clear round Atlanta Olympic
:18:21. > :18:27.Games and I have done five of them already. Obviously disappointed
:18:27. > :18:32.with I two down. I made a mistake because there is a big lion in the
:18:32. > :18:38.middle of the arena and I went near it and scared him and because of
:18:38. > :18:42.that he was a bit strange and the first part of the cause, but in the
:18:42. > :18:46.second party jumped beautifully. You had the same fences down. I saw
:18:46. > :18:51.the look on your face when you pulled up and I wanted to say, you
:18:51. > :18:57.have done OK. It has gone really well, but there is a disappointment.
:18:58. > :19:02.I will get over it. I was just a bit flat at the first fence. You
:19:02. > :19:07.want to be there going for goal, so I am disappointed, but I am
:19:07. > :19:16.thrilled for the team. Gold would have been amazing, but silver is
:19:16. > :19:24.We are very much hoping the team it will be joining as here in the
:19:24. > :19:31.studio at some stage. From equestrian to rowing and a man made
:19:31. > :19:41.2.2 K limiter perfectly straight lake. Eton Dorney took two years to
:19:41. > :19:48.
:19:48. > :19:52.build and a mother to fell. I The British crew ready to jump
:19:52. > :20:02.through the 1,500m mark and start to press on for the line, which is
:20:02. > :20:15.
:20:15. > :20:21.only just from Switzerland who had led them right from the off. The
:20:21. > :20:31.crowd have been fantastic for Team GB. The British are slicing through
:20:31. > :20:36.
:20:36. > :20:43.the water. A fabulous job. But Switzerland are responding. Closest
:20:43. > :20:48.to asked Germany cannot live with it. Look at this, Switzerland
:20:48. > :20:53.pounding Great Britain all the way. Great work from Great Britain, they
:20:53. > :20:59.moved when they want to. They have got control of this race will stop
:20:59. > :21:05.they are up to 38 strokes a minute. They have got the crowd behind them
:21:05. > :21:13.and they have moved right through. It is a wave of Union Jacks on the
:21:13. > :21:19.far side. They are waving them to the line. Great Britain he's out to
:21:19. > :21:23.a quarter of a length. The speed is coming naturally. They are working
:21:23. > :21:32.at this time. It is a third of a length over Switzerland on the
:21:32. > :21:42.other side. Four boats for three places. The first one going to
:21:42. > :21:49.
:21:49. > :21:55.Great Britain. Germany pushed out. Germany pushed out into the B final.
:21:55. > :21:59.A fabulous friend for the line and well executed Great Britain. Great
:21:59. > :22:06.Britain are looking very good. I look forward to the finals over the
:22:06. > :22:16.next few days. These are the scenes inside the park. That is us up
:22:16. > :22:17.
:22:17. > :22:22.there where the lights are run. We It is a brilliant spot to be. I am
:22:22. > :22:25.joined by Ian Thorpe and we have a special night to look forward to in
:22:25. > :22:32.the swimming pool with Michael Phelps going for that Olympic
:22:32. > :22:38.record of 19 medals. It is a tough challenge for him to get 19. It
:22:38. > :22:44.will happen, whether it is tonight or another night. Do you sense it
:22:44. > :22:49.will be tonight? Yes, I think it will be. I consider him the
:22:49. > :22:52.greatest Olympic champion already, but this is one of those things
:22:52. > :22:58.that officiates what he has accomplished. It means he has won
:22:58. > :23:05.the most medals out of any other athlete. What about the first
:23:05. > :23:11.swimmer to win the same event three Olympics in a row. I think that one
:23:11. > :23:15.is harder. In the fly he is defending Olympic champion, but he
:23:15. > :23:20.also won it previously. He is going for three consecutive gold medals
:23:21. > :23:25.in the same event. I think this is the one out of all of them that he
:23:25. > :23:30.is going to be chasing the most. I have watched his form and it will
:23:30. > :23:40.be tough for him to get this one. But I think he wants it more than
:23:40. > :23:46.anything else. Also swimming is at Shiwen Ye. She is dominating the
:23:46. > :23:52.headlines. Anything that is unbelievable generally is as
:23:52. > :23:59.somebody said. Where do you stand on that? I look at her and we have
:23:59. > :24:05.to consider she is 16. She is an age group swimmer. We look at age
:24:05. > :24:10.group results in GB, Australia, wherever else. We see these kinds
:24:10. > :24:14.of improvements weather are seconds. These do not happen when it hits
:24:14. > :24:19.you in your professional career when you are in your early twenties.
:24:20. > :24:24.I say we applaud the performance first. But sport needs to get to a
:24:24. > :24:28.place where people are confident in the anti-doping system and the
:24:28. > :24:34.measures that are taken that when somebody has an unbelievable
:24:34. > :24:40.performance that we a plaudit first. We do not say all the athletes must
:24:40. > :24:47.be on drugs. I think at her age she can make that kind of up --
:24:47. > :24:51.improvement. When I went from 15 to 16 I dropped five seconds. There
:24:51. > :24:55.have been some other unbelievable performances as well where
:24:55. > :25:00.questions have not been raised. think we have to remove
:25:00. > :25:03.nationalities from this. When we talk about issues of drugs we have
:25:03. > :25:08.to remove individual names and where they come from and talk about
:25:08. > :25:12.it openly and honestly and in an intelligent way so we get to the
:25:12. > :25:18.bottom of this. It has to be left to the authorities. They are pretty
:25:18. > :25:22.good at finding cheats nowadays. have to assure everyone these are
:25:22. > :25:28.the best procedures we have ever had in place to catch cheats,
:25:28. > :25:33.simple as that. It has never be more strict. We will catch more
:25:33. > :25:37.athletes. When we catch one, let's applaud the authorities rather than
:25:37. > :25:43.saying all of the athletes are on drugs. Let's say this is the
:25:43. > :25:48.minority, and it is that minority, and applaud the authorities. It is
:25:48. > :25:52.time to go over to the Aquatics Centre where Clare Balding and Mark
:25:52. > :25:58.Foster are waiting for a terrific night's swimming.
:25:58. > :26:03.There are a lot of news people here tonight and they are looking at
:26:03. > :26:07.various women as. A couple of responses that have come through
:26:07. > :26:11.already. The Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt said we have put in
:26:11. > :26:16.place the most stringent anti- doping procedures ever. We are very
:26:16. > :26:23.confident we can make this the cleanest Olympics ever. They will
:26:23. > :26:26.do 6000 random drugs tests here, compared to 2000 in Sydney.
:26:26. > :26:30.always get tested out of competitions as well. Every
:26:31. > :26:35.medallist here has been tested. They are making it as clean as
:26:35. > :26:41.possible. I am listening to what Ian Thorpe is saying and the bottom
:26:41. > :26:47.line is she may be a new Michael Phelps. Why can't she do these
:26:47. > :26:57.performances? She could easily when another gold medal tonight. This is
:26:57. > :27:12.
:27:12. > :27:19.the line-up for tonight's files. -- Michael Phelps is in the men's 200m
:27:19. > :27:29.butterfly final. In the butterfly semi-finals women's 200m, Jemma
:27:29. > :27:49.
:27:49. > :27:54.Lowe is in that. Let's tell you a I think being competitive is
:27:54. > :27:59.definitely part of who I am. I always try and keep it more fun
:27:59. > :28:06.competitive and try not to keep it so serious, but I am a very
:28:06. > :28:10.competitive. I love to race, I love getting out there with all these
:28:10. > :28:16.incredible swimmers and racing and pushing each other to see what we
:28:16. > :28:20.can do. There is always that moment where I make sure I am really
:28:20. > :28:25.focused on what I am doing. I always try to take risks because
:28:25. > :28:35.even if it is not always worth it, the times and that it is, it is so
:28:35. > :28:39.
:28:39. > :28:46.rewarding. Missy Franklin going for her first individual Olympic medal.
:28:46. > :28:56.And here comes Missy Franklin in lane five. This is her first
:28:56. > :28:59.
:28:59. > :29:04.individual medal. Smashers that American record. You have to put in
:29:04. > :29:07.the effort individually every day to make you sup better, you have to
:29:07. > :29:17.push you survive past your limits and you have to get out there and
:29:17. > :29:21.
:29:21. > :29:26.give it your all. Bear in mind Michael Phelps won his first gold
:29:26. > :29:34.medal at 19, Mark Spitz at 22 and Missy Franklin has won at the age
:29:35. > :29:40.of 17. The same as Ian Thorpe. Their new Michael Phelps is a big
:29:40. > :29:48.label, but she is the real deal. She will be in the first final
:29:48. > :29:58.tonight. She will be swimming Nistor Caitlin McClatchey. Now it
:29:58. > :29:59.
:30:00. > :30:05.Nistor Caitlin McClatchey. Now it is the men's 100m freestyle final.
:30:05. > :30:15.James Magnusson is in lane five. The world record holder is only in
:30:15. > :30:27.
:30:27. > :30:35.closest but he has only got 48 here. Cesar Cielo was taking it a bit
:30:35. > :30:45.easy this morning. We haven't seen what he was capable of. A gold-
:30:45. > :30:51.medallist so far in the relay, the tremendous the French swimmer. He
:30:51. > :30:59.Riaz, a world record holder, world champion on the 50m freestyle. An
:30:59. > :31:08.Olympic gold-medallist on the 50, only bronze in the 100. Brett
:31:08. > :31:18.Fraser of the Cayman Islands. brother is in lane eight. Lane of
:31:18. > :31:21.
:31:21. > :31:26.three and 80. The South African. Here he is, the fastest man in the
:31:26. > :31:31.world, James Magnussen of Australia but he had a very average lead-off
:31:31. > :31:38.leg in the final of the Relate. Australia, big favourites, they
:31:38. > :31:41.came 4th. The 23-year-old Russian in a number six. The second fastest
:31:41. > :31:49.man in the world, James Roberts from the Australia, not a great
:31:49. > :31:54.relay. He is only young. I think the pressure got to the Australians.
:31:55. > :32:01.Big rivalry with the Americans. James Magnussen, only 21. Lots of
:32:01. > :32:05.time for them. James Magnussen, just a little strip taken off, the
:32:05. > :32:10.boy is very confident, looked a bit more humble. Look at those red
:32:10. > :32:20.marks, he has basically slapped himself on the chest. That has got
:32:20. > :32:39.
:32:39. > :32:46.to hurt. It does but it really 100m freestyle. Lane four, Gideon
:32:46. > :32:55.Louw, seemed to fall off the blocks, very poor start from him. Good
:32:55. > :33:05.start at the dog from Cesar Cielo. -- at the top. Looking fantastic on
:33:05. > :33:15.
:33:15. > :33:22.the first 50. Fabian she low in the Magnussen doing what he should have
:33:22. > :33:28.done of the relay. Let's check the world record. 46.91. That is better.
:33:28. > :33:34.Much better. Still half a second outside the time he set to win the
:33:34. > :33:37.Australian Olympic trials. That is much better. 48.12 lead-off, half a
:33:37. > :33:47.second faster, what a shame he didn't do that for his team-mates
:33:47. > :33:55.in the relay. I am kind of pleased for him, he is only young. He has
:33:56. > :34:01.got that confidence, and that will have done him the power of good.
:34:01. > :34:08.Beating Cesar Cielo in lane two, both coming out of the 10 together.
:34:08. > :34:13.Cesar Cielo looked a little bit ragged. He is looking to see how
:34:13. > :34:21.much he beat him by. That was really obvious, straight over, left
:34:21. > :34:26.untouched, the first thing he did was look over. Pretty quick.
:34:26. > :34:30.Wouldn't be surprised if that is the fastest of the final. James
:34:30. > :34:40.Magnussen wins the first semi-final, the world record holder in second
:34:40. > :34:45.
:34:45. > :34:55.and six was just 40.57. Surely the guys in the second semi-final know
:34:55. > :35:02.
:35:02. > :35:07.and the two, Yannick Agnel in La number one. What a great 200m
:35:07. > :35:17.freestyle that was. A was good to see, he really destroyed the field,

:35:22. > :35:26.it was a great win. Just down on You are brothers committee you
:35:26. > :35:32.fight over breakfast? It is competitive but we make it fun. He
:35:33. > :35:38.has been my biggest supporter from day one. It is about sharing days
:35:38. > :35:45.like this with him. Dr you follow him? He has forged his own path
:35:45. > :35:48.along the way. Nice to have him out there competing with me. There are
:35:48. > :35:51.four sets of siblings in the British team. Is it a great way to
:35:51. > :35:54.be able to train, or do you make sure you which came with each
:35:55. > :36:01.other? We swim swimmer or -- similar events so our training is
:36:01. > :36:07.pretty similar. We get to share almost every moment. Pretty nice.
:36:07. > :36:13.Your parents must get extremely nervous. They are proud and we have
:36:13. > :36:23.worked hard to get here, and we are really excited to be in the semi-
:36:23. > :36:32.
:36:32. > :36:42.the Cayman Island at the last Olympics. Not seen too many
:36:42. > :36:45.
:36:45. > :36:55.Belgians in the semi-finals. Up a sea of Cuba, an ex water polo
:36:55. > :37:05.
:37:05. > :37:13.player. The technical piece is not so good. Brian Hayden, the Canadian,
:37:13. > :37:23.looking mean, former world champion. Nathan Adrian, the fastest
:37:23. > :37:23.
:37:23. > :37:30.qualifier after the heats. Be careful of the first four lanes.
:37:30. > :37:34.think the race is at the top. The second semi-final of the men's one
:37:34. > :37:41.and a metre freestyle and Cullen Jones at the top. An excellent 50m
:37:41. > :37:45.freestyle. He did this in the heats this morning, this will play right
:37:45. > :37:50.in the hands of Yannick Agnel. He will try to stay with him in the
:37:50. > :37:54.outside lane. Nothing a dream doing what he did in the relay. He has
:37:54. > :38:04.got form in this neat already. Yannick Agnel in second, that is
:38:04. > :38:11.quite ominous. I thought the race would be on the right hand side.
:38:11. > :38:20.Nathan Adrian looking good. His lifetime best, 47.8. Look at the
:38:20. > :38:30.bottom as well. Garcia of Cuba, goodness me, he got it, second.
:38:30. > :38:33.
:38:34. > :38:40.47.97, no Finnegan, a much slower semi-final. It will be so close.
:38:40. > :38:44.Adrian's start, a big leap, epic look. Big fly kick, had a quick
:38:44. > :38:53.look over the left, checked out where he was in the field. He is
:38:53. > :39:02.top of your picture. And Hanser Garcia, the water polo player he
:39:02. > :39:11.almost needed a ball in front of him. He has come third. Those wide
:39:11. > :39:17.eyes. It hurts so much. It looks like five qualify from a semi-final,
:39:17. > :39:27.made in 18 wins it, Garcia second. Yannick Agnel I think is in. Look
:39:27. > :39:30.how close it was, really close. Only three from the last semi-final.
:39:30. > :39:36.Confirmation of those going through to the final, James Magnussen
:39:36. > :39:44.fastest, world record holder is only in 5th place, that will be an
:39:44. > :39:47.absolute flyer tomorrow night. will see a few of them in the big
:39:47. > :39:51.really at the end of tonight because Yannick Agnel is on the
:39:51. > :39:56.anchor leg for fans. They won the first big men's relay of the week
:39:56. > :40:00.beating America and it will be felt and Agnel, it will be amazing.
:40:00. > :40:04.There is Michael Phelps. He will be coming out later. The race after
:40:04. > :40:11.this, to defend the double title he has won in the 200m butterfly. He
:40:11. > :40:18.has won it for the last two Olympic Games and he is trying to become
:40:18. > :40:22.the man to do that. We have the women's two rigid metre freestyle,
:40:22. > :40:26.this latest Camille Muffat from France, Pellegrini, the defending
:40:26. > :40:30.champion, Cailtin McClatchey who very nearly gave us make but is
:40:30. > :40:36.back in the form of her life. After 2000 the 10th Commonwealth
:40:36. > :40:42.Games she Mail -- failed to make the final, she was going to walk
:40:42. > :40:45.away, changed her coach, and in March she didn't qualify, went to
:40:45. > :40:51.the second trials in June and she has qualified. We call them the
:40:51. > :40:55.posh and Becks of swimming but she is going out with Liam Tancock. In
:40:55. > :40:59.2006 Commonwealth Games she won, she has got the form, it will be a
:40:59. > :41:04.hard task. Between Pellegrini and Missy
:41:04. > :41:09.Franklin, who played either feature on earlier, she has already got a
:41:09. > :41:15.gold in the 100m backstroke. Cup -- it is very where to combine
:41:15. > :41:21.freestyle and backstroke. Backstroke is rather different.
:41:21. > :41:25.Freeze out your arms go forward, but a similar sort of movement.
:41:25. > :41:32.Lochte is a backstroke specialist because the style as well. She is
:41:32. > :41:36.out in lane eight which means she has qualified in 8th place. I am
:41:36. > :41:40.thinking Missy Franklin kids need in on the outside. Caitlin is in a
:41:40. > :41:45.great position if you can hang on. The bronze medal place could be a
:41:45. > :41:50.scrap. Missy Franklin, not just comes from Colorado, but trained in
:41:50. > :41:53.a Rohrer, the place were 12 people were killed in the cinema sheeting
:41:54. > :41:57.and she is very much trying to do some thing here at these Olympic
:41:57. > :42:03.Games to make the people of Colorado's smile again, that is
:42:03. > :42:08.what she says. The 200m freestyle, Let's join Andy.
:42:08. > :42:16.A hot race it will certainly be. Where the gold is going to go, I
:42:16. > :42:23.don't know. This in lady, Allison Schmitt got the silver and looked
:42:23. > :42:29.really good in the heats. The next to her, in lane six, Federica
:42:30. > :42:36.Pellegrini, the defending champion, at the world champion, world record
:42:36. > :42:46.holder. She could do it, she isn't consistent at the Olympic Games but
:42:46. > :42:49.
:42:49. > :42:54.seems to be pretty good on this 200. Listen to this. It is just amazing,
:42:54. > :43:04.it is enormously out. Cailtin McClatchey from Loughborough
:43:04. > :43:05.
:43:05. > :43:09.University. Missy Franklin, she qualified for this final of the
:43:09. > :43:19.200m freestyle than 20 minutes later got back in the water and won
:43:19. > :43:19.
:43:19. > :43:29.the 100m backstroke. It was a real fine line but she knew she did get
:43:29. > :43:37.
:43:37. > :43:40.Pellegrini, the Olympic defending champion. After she was beaten by
:43:40. > :43:50.Adlington she came back and won this one. Allison Schmitt will be
:43:50. > :44:09.
:44:09. > :44:15.strong. Caitlin is in lane seven. freestyle. A very good start for
:44:15. > :44:21.Allison Schmitt of the UK, there she is, one lane down from her,
:44:21. > :44:26.Bronte Barratt, Commonwealth champion in the 200 and 400, wonder
:44:26. > :44:36.if she can break the Commonwealth record? Look at Camille Muffat in
:44:36. > :44:40.
:44:40. > :44:45.late number three, Allison Schmitt Popova or in a number to. -- lay
:44:45. > :44:51.number two. Camille Muffat was going to try to take the field out,
:44:51. > :44:55.but she has eased back. Allison Schmitt looks dangerous. She trains
:44:55. > :45:02.with Michael Phelps, took a year of university to go to his coach,
:45:02. > :45:09.great lead out. Allison Schmitt over first, 0.85 of a second ahead
:45:10. > :45:17.of Missy Franklin, one for second behind, now she is working. She is
:45:18. > :45:23.working so hard, has she got it? She is a strong girl, Camille
:45:23. > :45:30.Muffat does not know how to react. Missy Franklin at the bottom, this
:45:30. > :45:35.is amazing. You want to know what she has got left. That is pretty
:45:35. > :45:40.good, the fact she could stay in the water, the rest of the field
:45:40. > :45:47.trying to get back. Fascinated to see if she would do any kicks under
:45:47. > :45:52.water. A fantastic turn. Allison Schmitt won a silver medal in the
:45:52. > :45:56.400, she will not tire out, a massive victory, he tore clear
:45:56. > :46:00.water from Yannick Agnel, Allison Schmitt has just done the same.
:46:00. > :46:04.Gold to Allison Schmitt of the USA, silver, it lay number three,
:46:04. > :46:10.Camille Muffat of France, and a bronze has gone to Bronte Barratt
:46:10. > :46:20.of Australia, it very good from her, Cailtin McClatchey finishing in 7th
:46:20. > :46:30.
:46:30. > :46:38.water between her and the rest of the field. Just dominant. Bronte
:46:38. > :46:48.Barratt could not live with it. She must have looked around and thought,
:46:48. > :46:55.well, this is mine. And she had the energy. Camille Muffat could not
:46:55. > :47:00.live with them, the 400m gold medallist. Allison Schmitt is
:47:00. > :47:07.already punching the air and they still have got to finish. That was
:47:07. > :47:13.absolutely brilliant, look at her face. The silver went to Camille
:47:13. > :47:20.Moffat, the bronze to Bronte Barratt by one one-hundredth of a
:47:20. > :47:25.second. Missy Franklin was 4th. Frederica Pellegrini, the world
:47:25. > :47:33.record defending champion was only 5th. I am very pleased for Caitlin,
:47:33. > :47:43.she is such a lovely lady. To come back and make the Olympic final,
:47:43. > :47:44.
:47:44. > :47:49.really well than, Caitlin, that was excellent. -- and really well done.
:47:49. > :47:54.Sharon is talking to her now. You have not stopped smiling since you
:47:55. > :47:59.came out of that door. The crowd was so amazing tonight. I want to
:47:59. > :48:04.thank everyone for their support. I have had such a great time really
:48:04. > :48:09.enjoyed it. A good time, but more importantly we have got the relay
:48:09. > :48:14.coming up and we have got lots of hopes. We have got a strong relay
:48:14. > :48:19.coming up tomorrow and I'm really excited and looking forward to it
:48:19. > :48:26.and I will recharge my batteries mouthful stop do we know if Rebecca
:48:26. > :48:32.is going to be swimming? It is a secret. Great to see her regaining
:48:32. > :48:42.her enthusiasm. But that when, a new Olympic record, so impressive.
:48:42. > :48:44.
:48:44. > :48:49.She trains with Michael Phelps. Yes, you can choose to watch it or
:48:49. > :48:55.not to what it, there is a television. But he listens to music
:48:55. > :49:05.before every race and it is the same music. What is it? Do you
:49:05. > :49:08.
:49:08. > :49:17.know? Something loud. Yes, he has got big your fangs. How do you win
:49:18. > :49:21.this race? This is is Number One event. In this event he is not
:49:21. > :49:27.beaten for 11 years and is going for three Olympics in one row which
:49:27. > :49:33.has never been done. I would not bet against him, but the form he
:49:33. > :49:43.has been in, he has not looked his best, he has been a bit heavy. If I
:49:43. > :49:44.
:49:44. > :49:52.was to put my money on him, I would still pick him. Everybody here is
:49:52. > :50:02.hoping that we see another gold medal because Allison Schmitt has
:50:02. > :50:17.
:50:17. > :50:25.just won the gold. Can Michael medallist, the third fastest in
:50:25. > :50:33.history and the fly. I bet all these guys are standing up going,
:50:33. > :50:40.what a chance I have got to win gold. This is the Commonwealth
:50:40. > :50:47.champion and he has got a chance. All of them it will be thinking.
:50:47. > :50:54.Takeshi Matsuda especially. listen to this. He looks worried,
:50:54. > :51:04.he does not look his normal, cool, calm, collected self. That is a
:51:04. > :51:05.
:51:05. > :51:15.particularly worried face will stop. His mother is a good quality
:51:15. > :51:22.
:51:23. > :51:29.Warrior. Having said that he has not got a bad conversion rate.
:51:29. > :51:39.Dinko Jukic took in seven. Stjepanovic H of Serbia in lane
:51:39. > :51:44.
:51:44. > :51:48.eight. No love lost between Tyler Clary and Phelps. I think he has to
:51:48. > :51:56.go out fast. I watched him in the heats and the semis and he seemed
:51:56. > :52:02.to be a bit sluggish. That has got to convert into commitments in the
:52:02. > :52:08.first 100. He has got to go out and make his move. He is certainly not
:52:08. > :52:12.good at swimming slow and he has been trying to conserve his energy.
:52:12. > :52:22.But when he goes low, his timing goes off and he does not look great.
:52:22. > :52:23.
:52:23. > :52:27.I hope that was the reason. He did not have the best semi. Off to a
:52:28. > :52:33.very clean start in the men's 200m butterfly final in the Olympic
:52:33. > :52:40.Games. Chad Le Clos off very quickly in that green hat of South
:52:40. > :52:46.Africa. There is Michael Phelps, a very strange style. He looks OK at
:52:46. > :52:56.the moment. He is not too bad. He normally comes back in the second
:52:56. > :52:58.
:52:58. > :53:03.half. His first term was not bad. am not sure if this is enough for
:53:03. > :53:11.Michael Phelps. If Chad Le Clos sees or feels on his shoulder that
:53:11. > :53:21.he is slowing down, he will go for it. Michael Phelps is looking good
:53:21. > :53:27.still. Down at the bottom Stjepanovic she is doing well.
:53:27. > :53:34.did not spot the turn as well has he normally does. Takeshi Matsuda
:53:34. > :53:39.is starting to move, I think he's smells blood. Chad Le Clos is still
:53:39. > :53:46.in there. I really hope Michael Phelps does this. He is looking
:53:46. > :53:55.tired. Takeshi Matsuda is starting to come through. He is still first
:53:55. > :54:00.to turn. He had a quick look around the field. The question is, has he
:54:00. > :54:04.got the fitness and the energy to close it out. He is gritting his
:54:05. > :54:14.teeth and he is starting to look a bit shaky. They are coming back at
:54:14. > :54:23.10, but Michael Phelps is going to win. Is he going to create history?
:54:23. > :54:29.He did not get it! Oh, my goodness me. Chad Le Clos won the gold. Look
:54:29. > :54:35.what that means. Oh, my goodness me, he was there and he'd just collided
:54:35. > :54:44.it. Chad Le Clos is Olympic champion on the men's 200m
:54:44. > :54:48.butterfly. Oh, my goodness me. one hundredths. You can watch the
:54:48. > :54:55.last 10m in that race and you can see the whole range of human
:54:55. > :55:00.emotion. They were gritting their teeth, it was getting really ropey.
:55:00. > :55:06.It was down to who could get to the wall first. None of them had the
:55:06. > :55:16.energy, it was killing them, all three of them. People who have
:55:16. > :55:16.
:55:16. > :55:26.followed swimming all over the years will have seen him as a young
:55:26. > :55:28.
:55:28. > :55:38.cave. Look at Chad Le Clos, the effort. That is a great shot.
:55:38. > :55:38.
:55:38. > :55:44.was hanging in there at all that time. Watch this. That is exactly
:55:44. > :55:53.what happened to Michael Phelps on the 100 fly in Beijing. There is
:55:53. > :56:03.his dad. Well done, sir. Your son. I think he said goodness me! I am
:56:03. > :56:03.
:56:03. > :56:08.sure it was goodness me or heavens above, something like that! What a
:56:08. > :56:14.swim. Michael Phelps has got a silver medal and in when that
:56:14. > :56:24.silver medal he has now tied for the most Olympic medals ever won in
:56:24. > :56:26.
:56:26. > :56:33.Olympic history, tied at 18. He has got 14 golds, two silvers. Is that
:56:33. > :56:38.your dad up there? You will set me off. Do not walk off, that was
:56:38. > :56:44.extraordinary. I know that is what you were hoping to do. Did you
:56:44. > :56:52.think you're going to do it? I was dreaming about this since I was a
:56:52. > :56:57.little boy. Michael is my hero. I cannot believe it. You have just
:56:57. > :57:02.beaten the greatest swimmer ever in history. This is a truly momentous
:57:02. > :57:12.moment. Everyone will be proud, your dad is very proud. I really
:57:12. > :57:15.
:57:15. > :57:22.Full credit to Ian Thorpe because he called it and he said that might
:57:22. > :57:28.not hat that -- that might happen. I do not think Chad Le Clos
:57:29. > :57:37.believes it. When Michael Phelps went for his 8th in Beijing in the
:57:37. > :57:47.100 butterfly, it was the opposite to tonight. But what a moment. I
:57:47. > :57:57.
:57:57. > :58:06.would have loved to see him wear It is to do with for us as well as
:58:06. > :58:12.timing. He attaches first and with more force. When you want to hit
:58:12. > :58:22.the pad, you want to hit it with force. It has got metal on the back
:58:22. > :58:27.of it. The harder you hit it, the quicker it stops the clock. This is
:58:27. > :58:36.the classic example of asking your body questions and can it answered.
:58:36. > :58:41.Chad Le Clos answered the urgings. He knew where Michael Phelps was.
:58:41. > :58:50.It was like Michael Phelps did not have the last stroke. You could see
:58:50. > :58:55.it on the last turn. It is amazing, absolutely phenomenal. He was at a
:58:55. > :59:00.youth Olympic Games a few years ago, never been to an Olympics before a.
:59:00. > :59:06.The second gold medal for South Africa. He is only 20 and the
:59:06. > :59:13.people in South Africa will be going mad for that. But Michael
:59:13. > :59:19.Phelps has made history equalling the record of all time medals won
:59:19. > :59:29.in Olympic history. He still has got to do the relay and if he wins
:59:29. > :59:29.
:59:29. > :00:20.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 95 seconds
:00:20. > :00:30.another medal, he will set the all- these swimmers are probably
:00:30. > :00:39.
:00:39. > :00:47.got a final. She needs to put her legs together. She doesn't really
:00:47. > :00:51.kick at all. Semi-final of a 200 butterfly, fairly shortly
:00:51. > :01:01.thereafter going to have to do the 200 individual medley final, seems
:01:01. > :01:02.
:01:02. > :01:09.most unfair. Hoshi from Japan second. Hoshi is strong, 21 years
:01:09. > :01:19.of age. She was in the Beijing Olympic Games. She would like to
:01:19. > :01:20.
:01:20. > :01:25.get through to the final. The black cap on Japan. Elaine number five,
:01:25. > :01:30.she might as well not have done it, her final is coming up. If she is
:01:30. > :01:38.not careful she will not make the final of the 200 fly. Why has she
:01:38. > :01:41.done it to herself? She is tough at the back end of her races but has
:01:41. > :01:51.got some work to do. Starting to move a little bit but she is out of
:01:51. > :01:52.
:01:52. > :02:02.the shot. She went off like a shot, the Chinese swimmer. Hoshi of Japan
:02:02. > :02:06.are coming through. Yes, they are, Adams in third. She came back well,
:02:06. > :02:14.quite impressive. Very impressive, she put the effort in the last 20
:02:14. > :02:17.metres. She has done a Missy Franklin type thing, tried to get
:02:17. > :02:25.in in the top four from this semi-, it is not position, it is the
:02:25. > :02:34.fastest eight times. She is gambling slightly. Look how close
:02:34. > :02:39.to the water has chin is when she breeds. -- breeds. No effort to go
:02:39. > :02:45.up and down. Just stick your chin on the water, used all your efforts
:02:45. > :02:55.to go forwards, beautiful cake and pushed together. Fabulous. -- cake.
:02:55. > :03:07.
:03:07. > :03:10.position to be in. She will have to wait. A few good swimmers in the
:03:10. > :03:16.next semi-final, they are just about to walk out. It will be
:03:16. > :03:22.interesting. Some of those personal best times are quite a way down,
:03:22. > :03:28.you never know. Jemma Lowe of Great Britain does in a number five,
:03:28. > :03:31.Kathleen Hersey, the past -- the fastest qualifier in a number four.
:03:31. > :03:38.Looking forward to seeing Jemma Lowe in lane five, one of the Brits
:03:38. > :03:42.that did make it. We were hoping Ellen Gandy would be in here, but
:03:42. > :03:49.she bombed out in the heat, unfortunately. I don't know if it
:03:49. > :03:51.was the pressure that got to her. Jemma Lowe looked really good.
:03:52. > :04:00.Third fastest into the semi-finals after the heats was very good
:04:00. > :04:10.indeed. Belmonte Garcia, the distance freestyle specialist in
:04:10. > :04:16.
:04:16. > :04:22.lane two. Jemma Lowe went to 07 0.64. ":07.64. If Tim a repeat what
:04:23. > :04:32.she did in that heat she has got a good chance. Choi has got a best
:04:33. > :04:45.
:04:45. > :04:50.walking out. A massive cheer for Jemma Lowe in a number five. The
:04:50. > :04:54.woman she has wanted to go better, wanted to place higher, 9th in
:04:54. > :05:01.Beijing. Just make sure we don't do that again. The semi-final job is
:05:01. > :05:08.very simple, make the final. Ignacio Sorribes of Spain in lane
:05:08. > :05:14.six. The defending champion, from China, in lane seven. She has
:05:14. > :05:19.watched her compatriot when the previous semi-final. Jemma Lowe,
:05:19. > :05:27.interesting, next to the American in a number four. The Chinese were
:05:27. > :05:37.met in a number seven. A good position to be in next to her she.
:05:37. > :05:50.
:05:50. > :05:55.-- Kathleen Hersey. Let's see what comfortably in the first half then
:05:55. > :06:03.picked it up in the second half in their heats. The world record
:06:03. > :06:06.holder in lane seven. The second semi-final of the women's 200m
:06:06. > :06:15.butterfly, Jemma Lowe getting a decent start with a red hat in the
:06:15. > :06:20.centre. Very good from Zige Liu from China. Both of them have no
:06:20. > :06:23.bids, gold and silver-medallists from Beijing in their own country,
:06:23. > :06:32.trying to replicated here. Jemma Lowe, a bit off the pace, that is
:06:32. > :06:42.OK for now. It is the semi-final. Zige Liu going over first. That was
:06:42. > :06:42.
:06:42. > :06:48.an amazing world record she did in 2009, Kathleen Hersey in a number
:06:48. > :06:53.four, top left of your shot. Jemma Lowe just needs to get back on the
:06:53. > :06:59.solders -- shoulders. I would like her to be a metre or so ahead, she
:06:59. > :07:07.is in six or seven position at the moment. Certainly first U-turn will
:07:07. > :07:15.be Zige Liu of China. She is first, then Jakabos, Ben Jemma Lowe in 7th
:07:15. > :07:18.place. She has got to start moving. She had a very good return. There
:07:18. > :07:24.she is, quite near the back of the field but hoping to come through.
:07:24. > :07:30.Needs to get top four. Sigley it is looking a bit ropey. She is a large
:07:30. > :07:36.girl. But sometimes doesn't help on 200m, lad did acid builds up, it is
:07:37. > :07:45.harder to get you on Sat. She is struggling. Kathleen Hersey has
:07:45. > :07:52.taken the lead. Yakir bars in a number three. The crowd starting to
:07:52. > :07:57.come into this and trying to drag Jemma Lowe home. 10m underwater,
:07:57. > :08:02.starting to come through. I would like to see her get third or 4th if
:08:02. > :08:08.she can. It looks like it will be Kathleen Hersey winning it. Jemma
:08:08. > :08:18.Lowe has got some work to do. Second was Belmonte Garcia, third
:08:18. > :08:27.
:08:27. > :08:37.was Jakabos. Jemma Lowe was in 5th place with two 07 0.3. 2:07.03. I
:08:37. > :08:38.
:08:38. > :08:43.think she is OK. Look at those terms, great coaching job. You keep
:08:43. > :08:48.your head down, keep tight, spin round as quick as you can. Kathleen
:08:48. > :08:53.Hersey coming through quickly towards the end. Zige Liu not on
:08:53. > :08:58.form, I don't think. Kathleen Hersey is the one to watch for the
:08:58. > :09:01.final. The American coaches believe this girl has got are three good
:09:01. > :09:05.swims in her. A you can hear the crowd in the background, they have
:09:05. > :09:09.gone nuts because they have seen Jemma Lowe coming 5th in that semi-
:09:09. > :09:19.final and has qualified into the final, a massive geer, never heard
:09:19. > :09:19.
:09:19. > :09:24.that before. Well done. Until Jemma Lowe looks at the scoreboard she
:09:24. > :09:28.will not know that either. The news get broken to her. She might have
:09:28. > :09:32.heard the news from the crowd first they looked at the scoreboard.
:09:32. > :09:39.There is a confirmation of the finalists. Kathleen Hersey goes in
:09:39. > :09:49.the fastest. There are two Chinese swimmers. Jemma Lowe qualifies in
:09:49. > :09:54.
:09:54. > :09:58.8th place. Her best time is 2.53. You're a tough and you get in, you
:09:58. > :10:01.must have heard the crash out when you realised you were in.
:10:01. > :10:08.For I didn't know I was going to be in there when I finished 5th, I was
:10:09. > :10:12.a bit worried. Should have tried a bit harder. But that is perfect.
:10:12. > :10:17.Mike Hitch didn't want me to get in the middle and in the final, I am
:10:17. > :10:22.really lucky, it was meant to be. Ready for tomorrow. That is the
:10:23. > :10:26.plan, to be in the outside? It is really hard to get an outside lane
:10:26. > :10:30.when it is so fast to get into the finals, you have to give everything
:10:30. > :10:36.you have got or try to save their bit for the final. There was
:10:36. > :10:41.perfect. We know you are capable, it will probably not be a lot
:10:41. > :10:45.quicker tomorrow night. What do you reckon? It is hard to say. The
:10:45. > :10:49.finals on normally not quite as fast as the semi-finals, but you
:10:49. > :10:56.never know. I will give it absolutely everything tomorrow. See
:10:56. > :11:02.what it brings. Good luck. Thank you. I get out of breath just
:11:02. > :11:07.watching it. I can never make for loans. She is fine, she can talk.
:11:07. > :11:11.When you got out for your interview, I did many with Sharron Davies, did
:11:11. > :11:15.one length and I was puffing. The fact she jokingly said about making
:11:15. > :11:21.late and reserving something, maybe she did because she was speaking
:11:22. > :11:27.normally. Eyesores and images last night of the relay. This morning. I
:11:27. > :11:32.saw somebody leaning over being sick, you try so much, the acid
:11:32. > :11:36.builds up. We have still got to come here Michael Jamieson and
:11:36. > :11:39.Andrew Willis for Great Britain swimming in the semi-finals of the
:11:39. > :11:44.200m breaststroke and Hannah Miley going in the individual medley. If
:11:44. > :11:49.you want to watch Great Britain's footballers inaction the women are
:11:49. > :11:53.playing Brazil right now on BBC Three, both of those unbeaten in
:11:53. > :11:59.their two matches so far. Highlights will be here on BBC One
:11:59. > :12:02.later. There is plenty of excitement still to come and I wish
:12:02. > :12:06.I could be in two places a lot of the time. I have spent most of
:12:06. > :12:16.today wishing I could be in Greenwich and here and now I wish I
:12:16. > :12:16.
:12:16. > :12:21.could be in this year because they They are imminent, trust me. We
:12:21. > :12:26.have seen history equalled but not history made, sort of, tonight.
:12:26. > :12:32.Michael Phelps, he didn't quite manage. An extraordinary race.
:12:32. > :12:38.It really was. Of all of the races for Michael Phelps, I wanted him to
:12:38. > :12:45.win this one. It was tough watching that. He lost the race on the
:12:45. > :12:51.finish, not a fault of his own, it was a fantastic finish for Chad le
:12:51. > :12:56.Clos of South Africa, I tipped into do well in this race. I wanted this
:12:56. > :13:01.for Michael. He looked like he had got it one. The whole way through
:13:01. > :13:05.it looked like he had won it for the whole way through. The final
:13:05. > :13:13.stroke that just comes over, bang, he has got it. Similar thing
:13:13. > :13:17.happened in Beijing, the reverse order. Michael Phelps won the 100
:13:17. > :13:22.butterfly. This is 51 hundreds of a second stop if you see how close
:13:22. > :13:29.this is here, imagine in Beijing when they had to look back and look
:13:29. > :13:33.back again to see one. It was incredible, still equals the all-
:13:34. > :13:41.time record of 18 medals, one more, the replay later, he does will make
:13:41. > :13:45.history. He has got the relay, the Americans will get a medal, I think
:13:45. > :13:50.they will win. Simple as that. Tonight is a history-making event
:13:50. > :13:57.for Michael Phelps. And officially on every different level of judging
:13:57. > :14:01.he becomes the greatest Olympian ever. We will talk about that later.
:14:01. > :14:09.Earlier today in Greenwich Park Britain's three-day event team won
:14:09. > :14:13.a silver medal and we can speak to the triumphant five. Many
:14:13. > :14:18.congratulations. You must be delighted. Mary, described on
:14:18. > :14:23.missions. I am absolutely over the moon, we all are, it is so
:14:23. > :14:27.wonderful to get a medal in front of whole -- home crowd. We have --
:14:27. > :14:35.we would have loved to get gold but silver is fantastic, they are great
:14:35. > :14:41.medals, a really heavy. You're sick Olympics, how old is this when
:14:42. > :14:47.different being in home territory at Greenwich? Definitely the best.
:14:47. > :14:52.In front of all the home crowd, just extraordinary. Yesterday,
:14:52. > :14:56.galloping across the country galloping on our horses, so loud,
:14:56. > :15:01.you couldn't hear the stopwatches we were meant to be listening to to
:15:01. > :15:05.make sure we were keeping up. you had the vital aid to go, you
:15:05. > :15:15.had to get a clear round, it was silver or nothing, what was on your
:15:15. > :15:18.
:15:18. > :15:21.mind? I was trying not to think about it, to be honest. Really just
:15:21. > :15:24.focusing on jumping a clear round, it really didn't want to find out
:15:24. > :15:29.what was going on with the other teams because the important thing
:15:29. > :15:36.was to go fast and clear. I got one time fault but left the fences up,
:15:36. > :15:43.thank goodness. It has been a tough year, you lost your father, famous
:15:43. > :15:48.trainer, the horse has been ill as well, you have been through a lot.
:15:48. > :15:53.Yes, I know, it has all been happening this year. But we have
:15:53. > :15:56.had a fabulous week and a great team and we have been taking it
:15:56. > :16:03.incredibly seriously but had a bit of a laugh as well, it has been
:16:03. > :16:09.amazing. Your mother never managed to win a medal, your dad won gold,
:16:09. > :16:19.you have got silver, not a bad effort. My dad's score wasn't
:16:19. > :16:19.
:16:20. > :16:23.counting which mum told me to date so I have got one up on him and
:16:23. > :16:26.they are massively proud, it is just an awesome place to be, the
:16:26. > :16:33.whole experience has been unbelievable. We have had a great
:16:33. > :16:38.time, great team effort. Made it all worth it. Although we wanted
:16:38. > :16:48.the gold it is still worth it. jumped clear in the individual, as
:16:48. > :16:53.
:16:53. > :16:57.You did wonderfully well in the other parts of the event. The horse
:16:57. > :17:03.was awesome and stepped up to the mark. He is only going to get
:17:03. > :17:09.better. If I had done what I did in the second bit in the first bit,
:17:09. > :17:15.but, you know, we all make mistakes. We managed to stay with our silver
:17:15. > :17:20.and we will catch the Germans one day. It is a mixture of this sport
:17:20. > :17:26.because you go from the real style and elegance of dressage to the
:17:26. > :17:35.hurly burly of cross country. I suppose the horses have to be as
:17:35. > :17:41.gifted as your selves. One pity's sake Western art I was too busy
:17:41. > :17:45.laughing. I have had a fantastic course with Opposition Buzz. His
:17:45. > :17:49.strongest phase was always the cross country and it was a dream to
:17:49. > :17:55.ride him around Greenwich Park today. He was perfect from start to
:17:55. > :18:01.finish and it was a pleasure to be part of a fantastic team. It was
:18:01. > :18:07.really very special. I cannot ignore the big man at the back.
:18:07. > :18:12.William Fox-Pitt, your 4th Olympics, Your third medal. How does this one
:18:12. > :18:16.compare? This one is particularly special because none of us will
:18:16. > :18:21.ever experience the crowds of Greenwich again. They literally
:18:21. > :18:26.carried you around the course with screams and raw as and you felt so
:18:27. > :18:32.proud and lucky to be competing. It was particularly special and it is
:18:32. > :18:37.very sad it is all over. I know Clare Balding desperately wants to
:18:37. > :18:41.say a few words to your. I want to say well done and how proud
:18:42. > :18:48.everyone is of view and how brilliantly you held your heads and
:18:48. > :18:53.when there was so much noise around. What an incredibly strong team you
:18:53. > :19:03.are and everybody brings something to the party. All five of you,
:19:03. > :19:03.
:19:03. > :19:08.absolutely superb. Well said, we are all incredibly proud of all of
:19:08. > :19:12.you. Congratulations, enjoy your evening. We will go straight back
:19:13. > :19:17.to Clare Balding. It's lucky I was not there because
:19:17. > :19:22.I would have got very emotional. Few know how much work is put into
:19:22. > :19:27.it and the same is for every Olympic sport. With swimming the
:19:27. > :19:34.training is so intense and it is very lonely. You cannot talk to
:19:35. > :19:42.anybody. That's why I was doing sprinting, because after every
:19:42. > :19:48.event I could stop. Somebody like Rebecca Adlington is doing 80 up to
:19:48. > :19:55.1,000m in the water every week. You push your bodies to the extreme.
:19:55. > :20:00.Lots of going to bed early at night and giving up your weekends. You do
:20:00. > :20:06.not have a life and you have to give up an awful lot. The benefit
:20:06. > :20:16.is in terms of fitness, I mean you are very fit, but I might be mis-
:20:16. > :20:16.
:20:16. > :20:24.read! You go to the gym and work out very lot -- long times. I know
:20:24. > :20:31.a lot of them are based together. How much does it help to have a
:20:31. > :20:35.group around you to spur each other on? It makes a huge difference. In
:20:35. > :20:40.America with the collegiate system a lot of the best swimmers go to
:20:40. > :20:45.American universities. You have got a situation where you are training
:20:45. > :20:51.and racing every day with some of the best athletes in the world.
:20:51. > :20:55.Michael Jamieson and Andrew Willis are two of the best swimmers in the
:20:55. > :21:00.world. Kris Gilchrist trained with them and he was hour record holder
:21:00. > :21:04.until this morning. Every session they are going attic and a race
:21:04. > :21:14.each other because they do not want to give each other an inch. When it
:21:14. > :21:19.
:21:19. > :21:25.comes to this competition they are British record this morning, is
:21:25. > :21:31.going to be in lane four. He will be desperate to get it right in
:21:31. > :21:36.this one. Adrian Moorhouse, I would love to hear your thoughts on the
:21:36. > :21:40.difference between sprinters and distance swimmers in breaststroke.
:21:40. > :21:50.Technically is the stroke longer? You do not have to answer it now,
:21:50. > :22:00.maybe later. I will pick up on that for sure. This is his friend from
:22:00. > :22:05.
:22:05. > :22:11.the desert. Listen to this. Look at his face. He is loving it. Blowing
:22:11. > :22:21.out some air. The adrenalin has just gone racing around his body.
:22:21. > :22:28.
:22:28. > :22:37.He set a new British record to qualify second fastest. What a
:22:37. > :22:47.great swim it was. He really pasty a beautifully. -- he replaced it
:22:47. > :22:51.
:22:51. > :22:58.beautifully. He is based in Loughborough. Michael Jamieson is a
:22:58. > :23:04.great proponent of that 200m breaststroke stroke, but also had a
:23:04. > :23:10.very good 100m individual. I will be very interested to see how he
:23:10. > :23:15.does. It is a great position to be in lane four. The medals are not
:23:16. > :23:25.tonight, they are tomorrow. But do a great job here tonight and make
:23:26. > :23:35.sure you stay ahead of this lot. I am thinking a sub 2.10 to make the
:23:36. > :23:50.
:23:50. > :23:56.little bit of time to get quiet for the start. Jamieson is in the
:23:56. > :24:06.centre for Great Britain. Four lengths of the breaststroke.
:24:06. > :24:07.
:24:07. > :24:13.Jamieson is looking pretty good. A nice, long reach and very high.
:24:13. > :24:18.Look at lane five, the Japanese Clyde. Good underwater technique.
:24:18. > :24:28.Keep an eye on him. That is very different from the hundred
:24:28. > :24:59.
:24:59. > :25:05.breaststroke. Here it is legs and good and starting to come through.
:25:05. > :25:11.And he is picking the stroke up. The first 100 was all about keeping
:25:11. > :25:17.the length of the stroke and now it is all about accelerating. You can
:25:17. > :25:23.see the Japanese guy doing that as well. The Brazilian in lane one is
:25:23. > :25:31.doing very well as well. He is up first and the crowd are going to
:25:31. > :25:41.take him home. He is going away, fantastic. He is inside the record
:25:41. > :25:41.
:25:41. > :25:51.he set this morning. The rest of the field are starting to come back
:25:51. > :25:52.
:25:52. > :26:02.at him. The crowd are going absolutely nuts. Another massive
:26:02. > :26:05.
:26:06. > :26:12.British record. Listen to that. He has done the job. Two hats on. A
:26:12. > :26:22.wonderful British record. And a slow reaction to the gun. He was
:26:22. > :26:24.
:26:24. > :26:29.the last in the water on the dive. He accelerated his stroke counts.
:26:29. > :26:35.He was so controlled. These guys will be worried by that, I am
:26:35. > :26:43.telling you. There is only one man between him and the gold medal.
:26:43. > :26:52.Maybe Kitajima. Here is where the next medal could come from for
:26:52. > :27:00.Great Britain. That was good. It was only the semi-final. He has
:27:00. > :27:07.improved his lifetime best by almost one second today. The guys
:27:07. > :27:12.in Bath, Dave McNulty, the coaches, what a job they have done. The
:27:12. > :27:17.crowd are getting behind Michael Jamieson and his team-mate is in
:27:17. > :27:21.the second semi-final. You are loving this. Yes, it is
:27:21. > :27:26.amazing. Every time I come out here I get goose bumps walking behind
:27:26. > :27:31.the block. It is something special and it has really helped me this
:27:31. > :27:37.week. I am really happy with the time and I'm excited for tomorrow
:27:38. > :27:43.night. Will you be going to bed tonight dreaming of gold medals?
:27:43. > :27:49.all dream. Who knows? There is a long way to go and there are some
:27:49. > :27:55.big guys in this semi-final. I am sure I will make the final, but
:27:55. > :27:58.there are a few big guns still to come. Dave has done a great job
:27:58. > :28:04.preparing both the pupils stop it would be lovely if both of you
:28:04. > :28:10.could get in. I am sure he will. He has been on form as well. It would
:28:10. > :28:18.be good to have both of us in the final. I can only thank everyone in
:28:18. > :28:25.Bath, although support staff, Mark and Andy, the fizz Co, their
:28:25. > :28:32.coaches and all my team-mates. This has been a huge team effort. Myself
:28:32. > :28:38.and anger are swimming for the rest of the squad as well. Good luck.
:28:38. > :28:48.There is his team-mate. I wonder what he is thinking right now. Oh,
:28:48. > :28:52.
:28:52. > :29:00.my goodness me. Andrew Willis has just seen Michael Jamieson destroy
:29:00. > :29:10.the new record. He is saying, it is my turn now. They will have trained
:29:10. > :29:15.
:29:15. > :29:20.together in this team, preparing for this. He said he was on form.
:29:20. > :29:25.There is Kitajima. The defending champion. He has won the last two
:29:25. > :29:35.Olympics, Athens and Beijing. He could be the only man to do three
:29:35. > :30:00.
:30:00. > :30:05.lane four and Andrew Willis is in lane five. A nice big butterfly
:30:05. > :30:12.cake and beautifully streamlined. A very good start indeed. Another
:30:12. > :30:22.similar kind of stroke. That breaststroke from Bath. David

:30:40. > :30:40.
:30:40. > :30:45.behind Kitajima, he has something to prove. Having that result in the
:30:45. > :30:51.100m, can he have the fitness and strength and to make the 200?
:30:51. > :30:57.Swimmers normally come down in speed. Andrew Willis has just seen
:30:57. > :31:04.his team-mate destroyed the British record in the first semi-final and
:31:04. > :31:08.he was 0.7 of a second inside his own personal best. He looks really
:31:08. > :31:18.good. The rest of the field will start coming back. Look at David
:31:18. > :31:24.
:31:24. > :31:29.Gyurta. He is for from the left. Willis is strong, Sinkevich of
:31:29. > :31:38.Russia in a number two. Down in lane eight, Brenton Rickard, not
:31:38. > :31:45.giving up. The world record holder didn't enter for Australia. Brenton
:31:45. > :31:50.Rickard really having a go. They may not have seen him but the crowd
:31:50. > :31:58.reacting, Andrew Willis turned first with 50m to go. Look at this,
:31:58. > :32:03.this is amazing. He is only one metre behind the world record.
:32:03. > :32:12.David Gyurta coming through, it looks like it may be David Gyurta.
:32:12. > :32:16.David Gyurta gets it, second was a polis. -- second was an Willis, a
:32:16. > :32:21.new English record, only just outside the new British record set
:32:21. > :32:28.in the first semi-final by Michael Jamieson. That would have been a
:32:28. > :32:32.British record before Michael Jamieson did that one before. What
:32:32. > :32:36.a fantastic job they have done. David Gyurta is dangerous. He comes
:32:36. > :32:46.back very strongly. Here we have got Kitajima to the left, he is
:32:46. > :32:57.
:32:57. > :33:01.have got to have a look, I think it is important to look way you are,
:33:01. > :33:10.race them. You are not going to be on your own all the time. David
:33:10. > :33:14.Gyurta are just getting a touch, the threat to our boys. That was
:33:14. > :33:24.enormously impressive from Great Britain. It looks like we are back,
:33:24. > :33:36.
:33:37. > :33:44.this sheet before us, the first and third qualifiers. You must be so
:33:44. > :33:49.pleased. It was unbelievable. I wasn't quite as nervous as this
:33:49. > :33:54.morning, but the crowd really helped me out there, unbelievable.
:33:54. > :33:59.You kept it beautiful control of the stroke all way through. The
:33:59. > :34:04.training is really paying off. is about what working every day to
:34:04. > :34:08.hit the times we want to hit. Michael is capable of great time,
:34:08. > :34:16.really happy for him, amazing we're both doing so well and both in the
:34:16. > :34:20.final. You will be in that cold room together, a good thing to have.
:34:20. > :34:24.Just knowing your mate is there, it is great, and great for the coach
:34:24. > :34:29.as well. Imagine how noisy this place is going to be. Tonight was
:34:29. > :34:37.crazy. Getting these bumps just sitting on the bus thinking about
:34:37. > :34:40.it. It is an amazing feeling, at the spot has been unbelievable.
:34:40. > :34:45.British breaststroke coming back to where it was a few years ago. A
:34:45. > :34:49.kind of went off the boil, it looks like it is back. All along I wanted
:34:49. > :34:53.to be in the final and I have done that, I would just enjoy yet now,
:34:53. > :35:03.be up there in the middle lane, it will be an awesome experience.
:35:03. > :35:05.
:35:05. > :35:11.Probably the best I will ever have. A lot of history in breaststroke.
:35:11. > :35:18.Back in 76, Wilkie was Olympic champion, and then Moscow Olympics,
:35:18. > :35:23.Adrian Moorhouse, 1988, and then Nick Gillingham in 92 on the 200
:35:23. > :35:26.breaststroke. Ian Edmond the world silver-medallists, James Gibson, a
:35:26. > :35:35.world champion on breaststroke. Kris Gilchrist has picked up medals
:35:35. > :35:39.as well. We have got a huge history. No one better than Adrian Moorhouse.
:35:39. > :35:42.What would your advice be to Andrew and Michael in terms of what they
:35:42. > :35:45.do to prepare themselves not so much physically but mentally
:35:45. > :35:53.between now add the final tomorrow night and what chance do you think
:35:53. > :35:58.they have? In Seoul for my race we only had
:35:58. > :36:05.heats and finals, but I had to have a sleep and I didn't get a wink of
:36:05. > :36:11.sleep. All I could do was we play the race. My advice is do what ever
:36:11. > :36:17.you can teach a lout, relax, try and take it off, do what ever you
:36:17. > :36:22.can that is normal, watch a film, told your mates, play a game of
:36:22. > :36:27.cards. You have just got to relax. The pressure will be enough
:36:27. > :36:32.tomorrow. Take it easy. The we wish them luck and we will be bringing
:36:32. > :36:37.you a final. Meanwhile, Michael Phelps was beetle in the final of
:36:37. > :36:40.the 200m butterfly but there was a silver lining. The medal he is
:36:40. > :36:48.about to pick uptakes in to 18 m Olympic medals and that brings him
:36:48. > :36:56.a level with the Soviet gymnast who won her medals between 1956 and
:36:56. > :37:04.1964. There, Michael Phelps, looking a little sheepish, perhaps
:37:04. > :37:07.not surprising. We will see Chad le Clos he will be really emotional.
:37:07. > :37:17.Phelps almost looking embarrassed then gets the huge applause so it
:37:17. > :37:19.
:37:19. > :37:28.is OK. That was his mother. Do you celebrate his of a medal at the
:37:28. > :37:32.Olympic Games? He is such a superstar. He is so calm, so
:37:32. > :37:37.generous in his media presentation, he was brilliant in front of the
:37:37. > :37:42.world's media a couple of days ago. He is showing us his second Olympic
:37:42. > :37:48.silver medal, his 18th Olympic medal. He has picked up two here,
:37:48. > :37:56.both silver. Here has got his goggles around his neck again, like
:37:56. > :37:59.a teenage women. -- teenage swimmer. He was 5th at the World
:37:59. > :38:04.Championships one year ago and he has just beaten the great Michael
:38:04. > :38:08.Phelps, Chad le Clos of South Africa. It was one of the most
:38:08. > :38:15.amazing swims I have ever seen. His mother in tears, his father in
:38:15. > :38:24.tears. We are not far off that in the commentary box. What a great
:38:24. > :38:31.swim, what a proud moment, lifetime superhero, there his mother and
:38:31. > :38:36.father, Michael felt on the left- hand side. -- Michael Phelps.
:38:36. > :38:46.Olympic champion, get used to it, it will last forever. He will not
:38:46. > :38:46.
:38:46. > :40:30.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 95 seconds
:40:30. > :40:40.Chad le Clos of South Africa, and a silver medal to Michael Phelps of
:40:40. > :40:46.
:40:46. > :40:50.Sometimes pictures just say so much more than words ever could, Chad le
:40:50. > :40:54.Clos during the South African national anthem, the bottom lip was
:40:54. > :41:00.wobbling, his first Olympic Games, Michael Phelps is incredibly
:41:00. > :41:04.gracious making sure he is smiling, enjoying the moment as well. And
:41:04. > :41:14.Chad's parents, on the balcony just behind us, his father is bowing
:41:14. > :41:14.
:41:14. > :41:22.down. Look at him there. Fabulous. We will see if we can grab him,
:41:22. > :41:26.Mark is in there. He is saying, come and have a chat. Michael
:41:26. > :41:30.Phelps is making part of history, his 18th her Olympic medal. Until
:41:30. > :41:36.this week at the London Olympic Games he had never won Olympic
:41:36. > :41:43.silver, he had won 14 gold medals and two bronze medals. Chad le Clos
:41:43. > :41:53.saying Michael Phelps was his hero, the man who he looked up to, and
:41:53. > :42:00.
:42:00. > :42:07.cannot believe he has managed to The flowers getting thrown all over
:42:07. > :42:11.the place, here we go. In the centre we have got one unbelievably
:42:11. > :42:16.happy chap, great emotions on a medal ceremony, Chad le Clos of
:42:16. > :42:25.South Africa. He beat Michael Phelps on the 200 flights. Michael
:42:25. > :42:32.Phelps has set that world record He has got his emotions back in
:42:32. > :42:37.check. Michael Phelps is enormously gracious. He is a superstar. He
:42:37. > :42:41.will know he has given everything he can, he will not change the
:42:41. > :42:46.record, the record books say Michael Phelps is the greatest
:42:46. > :42:55.swimmer of this particular era, of any era, and I have been proud to
:42:55. > :42:58.witness all his medals. But here is perhaps the new generation.
:42:58. > :43:05.And here is his father, Bert. What a performance.
:43:05. > :43:12.Unbelievable. I have never been so happy in my life, something and
:43:12. > :43:17.ascribable. It is like I have gone to heaven. Whatever happened in my
:43:17. > :43:21.life now, it is plain sailing. And there is your boy down there, I
:43:21. > :43:27.think he could hardly believe it, not just he has won a gold medal
:43:27. > :43:35.but beaten Michael Phelps. This is unbelievable. Look at this!
:43:35. > :43:39.What a beautiful boy for a sorry, son. Tell us a bit about him and
:43:39. > :43:43.when he committed his life to swimming.
:43:43. > :43:52.He has committed light you cannot believe. He is the most down-to-
:43:52. > :44:02.earth, beautiful boy you ever meet in your life. Look at him, he is
:44:02. > :44:04.
:44:04. > :44:10.crying like me. Every time I see myself! This is live. His mother is
:44:10. > :44:14.here as well, how many more family members? My other son is here, I
:44:14. > :44:20.couldn't find him, we have got it all over the place, not easy to get
:44:20. > :44:22.tickets. We are aware. But you we here at the most perfect moment in
:44:22. > :44:30.your son's life and the most private moments in your life.
:44:30. > :44:34.Unbelievable. Facts, Great Britain. Thank you and congratulations. That
:44:34. > :44:38.is the father of this man, Chad le Clos, the new Olympic champion. He
:44:38. > :44:42.has beaten the defending champion, the man who has won the 200m
:44:42. > :44:50.butterfly for the last two Olympic Games if, and Michael Phelps, in
:44:50. > :44:54.doing so, wins the silver medal, and his 18th medal at comes level.
:44:55. > :44:58.Chad le Clos wins his first Olympic medal, and it is cold. What is
:44:58. > :45:02.rather sweet here, Michael Phelps is showing him how did it and say
:45:02. > :45:05.come this way, this is where we need to go, that is what happens.
:45:05. > :45:10.But the them will be in action straight away again because they
:45:10. > :45:13.will be in the freestyle relay. Chad le Clos was that Africa at
:45:13. > :45:19.Michael Phelps on the anchor leg for the USA and that will be
:45:19. > :45:29.interesting because he is against Yannick Agnel of France. Ian Thorpe,
:45:29. > :45:32.
:45:32. > :45:42.what was your reaction? Wasn't his moments in sport that you get to
:45:42. > :45:44.
:45:44. > :45:52.witness. Men do not cry, but it is Not only was Chad emotional, but
:45:52. > :45:56.his father was emotional. He had so much respect for Michael Phelps and
:45:56. > :46:01.he aspired to be like Michael Phelps and he has just beaten his
:46:01. > :46:11.Olympic hero. It is quite extraordinary. I am very proud of
:46:11. > :46:50.
:46:50. > :46:58.right next to Katinka Hosszu. tried to conserve energy in this.
:46:58. > :47:04.Caitlin Leverenz of the USA. A better 200m women. 5th at the world
:47:04. > :47:10.championships last year. This is an interesting young lady. Ye Shiwen.
:47:10. > :47:20.Totally destroyed the 400 medley at world record. Caused a bit of a
:47:20. > :47:23.
:47:23. > :47:33.stir with how good her freestyle leg was. Alicia Coutts of Australia,
:47:33. > :47:38.
:47:38. > :47:46.five times Commonwealth gold medallist, goes in lane five.
:47:46. > :47:53.Ariana Kukors is the world record holder at the moment. She dropped
:47:53. > :47:59.seven seconds herself to break that world record in the year. Stephanie
:47:59. > :48:04.Rice, the previous world record holder. She has had a lot of
:48:04. > :48:10.injuries and it has been quite tough for her. It is good to see
:48:10. > :48:14.Kirsty con-trick coming back. She got a silver medal in Beijing and
:48:14. > :48:19.she is back again. It would be lovely for her if she could
:48:19. > :48:29.complete the full set. Bronze in Athens and silver in Beijing, but I
:48:29. > :48:38.cannot see a gold in London, I am afraid. Not with Ye Shiwen. She set
:48:38. > :48:44.an Olympic records to qualify for this final. Ariana Kukors has not
:48:44. > :48:49.got near her world record. Let's not forget Hannah Miley at the top
:48:49. > :48:59.of the pool in lane one. She is not really a 200 medley swimmer, she
:48:59. > :49:04.
:49:04. > :49:14.should just throw herself into this. The final of the women's 200m
:49:14. > :49:16.
:49:16. > :49:20.individual medley. A good start for Alicia Coutts. Lane five, lane
:49:20. > :49:27.seven, Stephanie Rice. You cannot doubt Stephanie Rice's commitment
:49:27. > :49:31.to defending these titles. She found it difficult in the 400. It
:49:31. > :49:41.may be a little easier to get nearer in this one. Stephanie Rice
:49:41. > :49:44.
:49:44. > :49:50.has got a good backstroke. You have also got Alicia Coutts. Ye Shiwen
:49:50. > :50:00.is just building through the field. The breaststroke is where it makes
:50:00. > :50:04.
:50:04. > :50:14.a difference. Caitlin Leverenz is also good at breaststroke. It is Ye
:50:14. > :50:18.
:50:18. > :50:26.Shiwen of China. But Caitlin Leverenz is looking good. She is in
:50:26. > :50:33.lane three with the black hat. This is great from Caitlin Leverenz.
:50:33. > :50:39.Stephanie Rice is still hanging on in there. Alicia Coutts is still in
:50:39. > :50:46.there. It is going to come down to the freestyle. It is going to come
:50:46. > :50:52.down to the freestyle. Alicia Coutts has come up in the league.
:50:53. > :50:57.That was a great turn from her. Ye Shiwen and Alicia Coutts fighting
:50:57. > :51:07.it out, but Alicia Coutts is still looking good. She is closest to us
:51:07. > :51:09.
:51:09. > :51:13.and she is digging in very hard. It is the 16 year-old. It is another
:51:13. > :51:18.new Olympic record, but it is not a world record and not by quite a
:51:18. > :51:27.wave. But it is goal to China and her second gold in the
:51:28. > :51:33.championships. That was another impressive medley swimmer. She has
:51:33. > :51:38.ended two races and done it, you cannot ask for more. But the rest
:51:38. > :51:42.of the field were not intimidated by that 400 medley. You would have
:51:42. > :51:52.thought that maybe they would have been affected. But they are all
:51:52. > :51:53.
:51:53. > :51:58.taking a turn. Ariana Kukors is not giving up her record. Alicia Coutts
:51:58. > :52:08.had a quick look at Ariana Kukors and then at Ye Shiwen. But she was
:52:08. > :52:10.
:52:10. > :52:20.too strong in the end. The gold medal again going to China in the
:52:20. > :52:25.
:52:25. > :52:31.medley at the Olympic Games in London, this time the 200 medley.
:52:31. > :52:37.Hannah Miley is in 7th. Another really solid swim, another Olympic
:52:37. > :52:42.final, we could not ask any more from you in there. I am so happy I
:52:42. > :52:51.was able to make that final. Last time I came away I was 11th in the
:52:51. > :52:57.world and so now I'm 7th in the world, so I cannot knock that. It
:52:57. > :53:00.is fine, I am really happy with how this meat has gone. It is so much
:53:00. > :53:06.better than it was in Beijing and the atmosphere has been absolutely
:53:06. > :53:11.great, I know I keep saying that, but it really is. I have loved
:53:11. > :53:19.every moment of it. A big thank you to everybody who has been asserted
:53:19. > :53:23.that the TV ad in the crowds. What next for you? Just be in training
:53:23. > :53:27.again. After this I will have a break and then after that I would
:53:27. > :53:36.discuss with my dad what to do next. I'm looking forward to it. Thank
:53:36. > :53:46.you very much for all your hard work. Well, the big boys getting
:53:46. > :53:52.
:53:52. > :53:59.ready for the men's 4 x 200 relay. We are not even halfway yet. Great
:53:59. > :54:09.Britain had a fantastically to qualify for this final. -- a
:54:09. > :54:23.
:54:23. > :54:28.the 200m butterfly. Here is the British team. My goodness me, they
:54:28. > :54:32.are getting fantastic ovations, the British team. Robbie Renwick
:54:32. > :54:38.leading them off, that is an interesting decision. He was an
:54:38. > :54:43.anchor this morning and he was very good. So, they are putting their
:54:43. > :54:48.fastest guy first. It is an interesting order. Yes, it is
:54:48. > :54:55.because Robbie said he liked going last, the battle and the fight.
:54:55. > :55:00.Maybe the coach said, you might like it, but you do not come first.
:55:00. > :55:10.Michael Phelps on the right hand side. Those headphones on at the
:55:10. > :55:11.
:55:11. > :55:16.back. Ryan Lochte on the right-hand side. I think the French will be
:55:16. > :55:26.fancying themselves after the 4 x 100 to get the victory in this as
:55:26. > :55:26.
:55:26. > :55:34.well. Maybe Australia in there? What do you think? Yes, it could be
:55:34. > :55:37.these guys. It is very difficult to see past the USA. What is
:55:37. > :55:44.interesting that everyone who swam in the heats will get a medal if
:55:44. > :55:53.the team gets a medal in the final. All seven American guys will get
:55:53. > :56:02.medals. There is the Olympic champion in the 400m with the
:56:02. > :56:11.headphones on. China are in seven and Hungary are in eight. Great
:56:11. > :56:21.Britain are in lane two. We have changed our team and we have got a
:56:21. > :56:30.fast a guide in first. There will be all sorts of bombing going on
:56:30. > :56:35.when the big guys start diving in. Maybe that will put the guys off
:56:35. > :56:39.and maybe Great Britain can sneak in and do a bit better. Who set it
:56:39. > :56:44.was bombing? They are going to be smashing through the water and
:56:45. > :56:50.creating waves. Watch the waves when these guys dive end, they are
:56:50. > :57:00.not small. The Brits do not want to get behind because the waves will
:57:00. > :57:04.
:57:04. > :57:08.be awful. Michael Phelps, here you go, here is your gold medal. They
:57:08. > :57:16.are putting Ryan Lochte on the first leg as well. He is their
:57:16. > :57:26.second fastest. They are putting their second first-Test -- second-
:57:26. > :57:37.
:57:37. > :57:41.Great Britain in the red hat. But a really good start for France. I
:57:41. > :57:46.wonder if they can upset the applecart again. If momentum has
:57:46. > :57:56.anything to do with it, then the momentum of the French team is
:57:56. > :58:05.
:58:05. > :58:13.absolutely on a high. Michael Phelps will want a few seconds lead.
:58:13. > :58:17.He has got Yannick Agnel. I do not think he wants to get him anything.
:58:17. > :58:22.Could you imagine if it was head- to-head, Michael Phelps with
:58:22. > :58:29.Yannick Agnel. Look at that turn, he has taken a whole metre off the
:58:29. > :58:35.rest of that field. That is so impressive. Look at his legs, it is
:58:35. > :58:41.like a speedboat. France has got to be careful, they are going to get
:58:41. > :58:50.big waves. I wonder if he has gone too quick too soon. What they us.
:58:50. > :59:00.He is brilliant under water. Utterly stunning. He has got clear
:59:00. > :59:01.
:59:01. > :59:11.water just like Yannick Agnel did. He is a full body length ahead of
:59:11. > :59:13.
:59:13. > :59:23.the world record holder. Australia are second, Germany are three.
:59:23. > :59:28.
:59:28. > :59:38.Great Britain are 1.4 th 0.9 in 5th. Sorry, 1.46 0.9 by the Great
:59:38. > :59:59.
:59:59. > :00:07.medal. They have not had much of a meat so far. All that work by Ryan
:00:07. > :00:17.Lochte might be to no avail. The Brits are getting into a decent
:00:17. > :00:20.
:00:20. > :00:25.position. Ieuan Lloyd is swimming quite well and he is moving away
:00:25. > :00:32.from the Germans. That is a good idea, so he does not get as many
:00:33. > :00:42.waves. Well done. He is 6th at the moment. But wait out in the league
:00:43. > :00:43.
:00:43. > :00:46.is the USA. He has now extended the lead. There is nothing worse in the
:00:47. > :00:56.relay and shooting it all and the first 100m and having nothing left
:00:57. > :00:59.
:00:59. > :01:09.at the end. A very tight takeover. USA's leading, second is Germany at
:01:09. > :01:11.
:01:11. > :01:21.the moment. Third in lane six it maybe Australia. Ieuan Lloyd bore
:01:21. > :01:23.
:01:23. > :01:27.Great Britain piercing in 6th. have still got American domination.
:01:27. > :01:35.It looks as if there is only one place this gold medal is going to
:01:35. > :01:39.go. And Michael Phelps.... He will have a whole body lay ahead of the
:01:39. > :01:49.rest of the field to get a gold medal to make him the greatest
:01:49. > :01:54.
:01:54. > :02:01.Olympian ever. Eight goals in Beijing in eight days, and seven
:02:01. > :02:08.world records, they could be no better than that. Australia may be
:02:08. > :02:15.just about in second place now. Maybe it is Germany in lane three.
:02:15. > :02:21.Britain are still hanging in there. Robert Bear of Great Britain going
:02:21. > :02:31.and having a go, but he is taking the waves of the Germans.
:02:31. > :02:38.
:02:38. > :02:45.battle is by second. Robert Bale of Great Britain. They should be on
:02:45. > :02:50.their feet cheering his whole 200m. France are in second. Third is
:02:50. > :02:56.Germany, four of his Australian and Great Britain are now in 7th
:02:56. > :03:00.position. The final swimmer for Great Britain is Ross Davenport,
:03:00. > :03:05.but this is going to be a wonderful demonstration of 200m freestyle
:03:05. > :03:15.swimming. Watched the great Michael Phelps winning his 90th Olympic
:03:15. > :03:29.
:03:29. > :03:37.catch him. 100m to go, two lengths to go, over. The world record does
:03:37. > :03:43.not matter. What matters is Team America and Michael Phelps. He has
:03:43. > :03:49.caught him up by seven-tenths of a second. Michael Phelps is
:03:49. > :03:53.definitely not going to give this up. He is unbelievable. Look at
:03:53. > :03:58.that. 18 medals at the Olympic Games. He has 14 golds at the
:03:58. > :04:03.moment. He will get another one in a second. The crowd are standing up
:04:03. > :04:13.and saluting the greatest Olympian in history. This is something to
:04:13. > :04:15.
:04:15. > :04:22.watch. 19 medals. He will have 15 God -- 15 gold medals. What a super
:04:22. > :04:27.hero. The gold medal goes to the USA and Michael Phelps becomes the
:04:27. > :04:33.greatest Olympian in history with 19 medals. The silver medal to
:04:33. > :04:40.France, the bronze medal to China and Great Britain finishing in a
:04:40. > :04:45.credible 6th position. Look at that. He is having a tough time here in
:04:45. > :04:52.London but he has finally won a gold medal and what a super hero.
:04:52. > :04:56.Look at that. Ryan Lochte saluting the greatest Olympian in history.
:04:56. > :05:06.have never seen 18,000 people stand before but you have the whole
:05:06. > :05:09.
:05:09. > :05:13.audience acknowledging. There is his mum. His mum and his sister in
:05:13. > :05:21.floods of tears. I am really pleased that this event was this
:05:21. > :05:25.evening. Chad le Clos is now there, Phelps' star is waning but to
:05:25. > :05:31.finish tonight's session with this relay is the best end for him. He
:05:31. > :05:38.could still get more gold medals but I am pleased that was tonight.
:05:38. > :05:43.Ryan Lochte, the first split, doing a great job. I know they caught up
:05:43. > :05:53.on the second leg at Ryan Lochte was -- his lead would have made a
:05:53. > :06:23.
:06:23. > :06:27.difference and helped a lot. There and an epic evening to be involved.
:06:27. > :06:33.Definitely. The atmosphere is absolutely buzzing tonight. The
:06:33. > :06:37.race was OK for us. That time was pretty good. It is just great
:06:37. > :06:41.having their home support here and thank you to everyone in the crowd.
:06:41. > :06:46.The support has been fantastic. was your first Olympic final?
:06:46. > :06:50.was amazing. It was everything but I thought it would be. As I walked
:06:50. > :06:54.out I got hit by the noise and it was really special and it really
:06:54. > :06:58.pushed me. Nice to be part of history, even though it is not
:06:58. > :07:03.necessarily winning the race? good to be part of this team. We
:07:03. > :07:12.have swum together as a team for a couple of years now. Adding Ieuan
:07:12. > :07:16.Lloyd has paid off. How was it for you, Rob? It is such an honour to
:07:16. > :07:21.anchor your country in a relay like that again some of the world's
:07:21. > :07:25.greatest swimmers, not just today but the whole swimming world. It is
:07:25. > :07:29.absolutely fantastic to be a part of. I would have loved to have been
:07:29. > :07:33.standing on a podium tonight. This team is very young apart from
:07:33. > :07:38.myself, there are three guys who will hopefully go on to Rio. We
:07:38. > :07:42.have been close since 2000 and getting better. Hopefully, in 2016,
:07:42. > :07:46.these guys will be on the podium. Right over your shoulder we have
:07:46. > :07:50.the Americans who are going to Jack the NBC, can you imagine the
:07:50. > :07:54.pressure the guy behind you is under? When he goes home and counts
:07:54. > :07:58.his medals he will be all right. He has missed out on a couple of goals
:07:58. > :08:03.but I will take one of those. thank you very much, guys.
:08:03. > :08:08.The American team will talk to NBC and we may yet hear from them.
:08:08. > :08:11.Everybody stood, everybody all around this Aquatics Centre stood
:08:11. > :08:17.to applaud this achievement and how appropriate that Michael Phelps
:08:17. > :08:24.does it with a gold medal. He is an immense when a. An immense MP in.
:08:24. > :08:34.When you think his first Olympic Games in Sydney, we are talking 12
:08:34. > :08:44.
:08:44. > :08:48.years ago and now winning all these spoke to have her and she said I am
:08:48. > :08:52.delighted that somebody will overhaul my record. That someone is
:08:52. > :08:56.called Michael Phelps. You saw his mum, Debbie who has been by his
:08:56. > :09:01.side. She has had to give him a kick up the backside a couple of
:09:01. > :09:05.times. I think the other thing is, she is the driving force behind it.
:09:05. > :09:09.I remember looking back to my mum when I was younger, she was the one
:09:09. > :09:13.who drove you to the swimming pool, Freddie and unless you have that
:09:13. > :09:19.person who is willing to sacrifice so much for you, those achievements
:09:19. > :09:25.do not happen -- are they fed you. You need a committed mum.
:09:25. > :09:29.retires at the Olympic Games -- at the end of the Olympic Games. He
:09:29. > :09:33.said I am never going to do this but now I can relax and have fun
:09:33. > :09:38.because it is about how many toppings do I want on my ice-cream
:09:38. > :09:41.Sunday. That was an unbelievable topping. We are still waiting to
:09:41. > :09:46.see if we can talk to Michael Phelps but I tell you what will
:09:46. > :09:50.happen here tomorrow because we have seen two fabulous performances
:09:50. > :09:53.by Michael Jamieson setting a new British record and Andrew Willis. A
:09:53. > :10:03.qualified first and third for the final. You will see the
:10:03. > :10:04.
:10:04. > :10:13.breaststroke final at 7:30pm tomorrow night. The Women's
:10:13. > :10:17.butterfly final features Jemma Lowe. We have lots of swimmers involved
:10:17. > :10:22.tomorrow. The exciting thing, especially for the crowd here, we
:10:22. > :10:27.have had a lot of people every night. It is not just one person
:10:27. > :10:31.saying, where is the Brit, they have been here every night. I will
:10:31. > :10:41.hand back to you Gary and if we see Michael Phelps we will give you a
:10:41. > :10:42.
:10:42. > :10:46.An unbelievable night. Wasn't it? I think for Michael Phelps... I am
:10:46. > :10:50.going to entrap D because we can hear from Michael Phelps.
:10:50. > :10:53.Michael, first of all, congratulations, the most decorated
:10:53. > :10:59.Olympian ever, I have to say I thought you were unbelievably
:10:59. > :11:06.gracious this evening, a tough night. I was. Have the 200 not
:11:06. > :11:10.really go the way I wanted, Chad, we raced together last year and we
:11:10. > :11:16.have done some shoots and stuff together. He is a hard worker and
:11:16. > :11:23.he is a very talented kid. I was on the other end of that finish four
:11:23. > :11:28.years ago and he got me here. I cannot be too upset. I had a decent
:11:29. > :11:34.time. But the most important thing was coming back together with this
:11:35. > :11:39.relay and this group of guys. After the previous relay we wanted to tie
:11:39. > :11:42.something together and now we did it. Our first gold medal of the
:11:42. > :11:46.meat so I am happy. extraordinary athlete, it has been
:11:46. > :11:50.a real honour watching you. Thank you very much.
:11:50. > :11:58.The great Michael Phelps, I love that, he cannot be too disappointed.
:11:58. > :12:05.He has won two Silva's, gold and broken the all-time Olympic medal
:12:05. > :12:10.record. What I have loved watching Michael do at this competition is
:12:10. > :12:14.the very frank and honest. With all the comments he has made, he has
:12:14. > :12:18.had some swims which he felt was not a good, he said that. But
:12:18. > :12:24.tonight, I have always felt after the Beijing Olympic Games that
:12:24. > :12:28.Michael Phelps was the greatest Olympian of all time. Now it has
:12:28. > :12:31.been officiated. It is sort of confirmed. Swimming is one of those
:12:31. > :12:36.things where you can do multi- events whereas in athletics and
:12:36. > :12:40.other things you cannot say it does not compare but 15 gold medals is
:12:40. > :12:48.unbelievable. It is tough in swimming. If you are a freestyle
:12:48. > :12:52.swimmer, maybe you can do one or two possibly three. Once you get
:12:52. > :12:59.into the form strokes, it is the difference between track and field.
:12:59. > :13:02.It separates itself. Michael Phelps, dominant in the medley swimming so
:13:02. > :13:07.he has been able to get himself around all of the different
:13:07. > :13:13.disciplines of this sport and then goes and performs in some of the
:13:13. > :13:17.most hotly contested races like the 200m freestyle. It was brilliant to
:13:17. > :13:23.see him race and he has a gold medal round his neck. And not just
:13:23. > :13:28.that, he is a wonderful ambassador for sport. He is. Especially at
:13:28. > :13:32.this competition, people have wanted to see Michael Phelps win.
:13:32. > :13:36.It is nice that he has such a positive response from the crowd
:13:36. > :13:40.here. Team GB obviously has the support of the crowd, so does
:13:40. > :13:45.Michael Phelps. Arrests on what he has achieved and what people want
:13:45. > :13:50.to see him doing here. mentioned Team GB, I must talk that
:13:50. > :13:54.the two rest strikers, it looks quite promising for us? It does and
:13:54. > :14:00.I am pleasantly surprised. A results going through to the final,
:14:00. > :14:05.we had the athletes who were up I will have to look at this a bit
:14:05. > :14:10.more. There could be a medal. Michael Jenson first, Andrew Willis
:14:10. > :14:15.third, there are some big swimmers in their -- Michael Jenson.
:14:15. > :14:23.Unfortunately, there are some big swimmers which are just behind. We
:14:23. > :14:28.have to look at this positively. In for a medal shot. Looking at the
:14:28. > :14:32.results it would be great to see if the team comes home with a gold
:14:32. > :14:37.medal. I do not know if it is in this event. I hope so. Make sure
:14:37. > :14:41.you watch it. That is at 7:30pm tomorrow.
:14:41. > :14:47.That concludes things in the swimming pool but there is plenty
:14:47. > :14:53.more sport coming up for you. We will evaluate the chances of
:14:53. > :15:00.Bradley Wiggins in tomorrow's time trial. We will watch Britain's
:15:00. > :15:10.women hockey players take on South Korea. And we have also got
:15:10. > :15:14.
:15:14. > :15:20.football action from Britain's This is the scene outside. A lovely
:15:20. > :15:27.evening. It has being a pretty wet day at the Olympic Park. There is
:15:27. > :15:32.the stadium. The flame is still burning inside, I promise you. Our
:15:32. > :15:41.studio just there. Lots of people coming out of the aquatic centre
:15:41. > :15:50.now. It will fill up for the next few moments also. Different styles
:15:50. > :15:55.of dress. Out and about in the park. This is the launch of the British
:15:55. > :16:00.team kit which of course was designed by our very own, Stella
:16:00. > :16:07.McCartney. I am delighted to say she joins us now. Thanks for coming
:16:07. > :16:14.on. I am a little bit nervous, it took me ages to decide what to work.
:16:14. > :16:21.As I walked into the studio big button fell off my jacket. I did
:16:21. > :16:27.not make it. When did they ask you to design ticket? I was asked about
:16:27. > :16:32.3 1/2 years ago. It took about three years to do. It is not just
:16:32. > :16:38.the Olympics but also the Paralympics. A 590 different
:16:39. > :16:45.outfits, it must have taken a long time? Overset -- over 26
:16:45. > :16:52.disciplines. It is the first time a designer has a worked with a sports
:16:52. > :17:02.brand over the entire kit. It has been amazing. Way you're allowed to
:17:02. > :17:02.
:17:02. > :17:10.let your imagination wonder? There are so many rules and regulations,
:17:10. > :17:16.I have no idea. There is the home kit, the going away kit, gymnastics
:17:16. > :17:21.has to be symmetrical and you cannot show flesh on flesh
:17:21. > :17:28.otherwise you get marks taken off. A lot of information to take in.
:17:28. > :17:35.The clothing is quite scientific as well? If his led by technology.
:17:35. > :17:39.Speaking to the athletes, I have got to get the technology there and
:17:39. > :17:48.Adidas are the leaders in that. Also trying to get the team to look
:17:48. > :17:52.and feel as one. Which bought was the most challenging? Tom Daley's
:17:53. > :17:58.little thing. There there was not a lot of space to work on them to
:17:58. > :18:04.apply the print. So many different shapes of bodies and different
:18:04. > :18:11.sizes. The gymnastics or was hard work. You are dealing with a sport
:18:11. > :18:16.that is not just about going out and scoring goals. It is judged on
:18:16. > :18:20.people's preferences, I guess. difficult was it to strike the
:18:20. > :18:29.balance between style and practicality - something I wrestle
:18:29. > :18:36.with all of the time? I didn't want to say anything. Practicality comes
:18:36. > :18:40.Firth -- first. Then I wanted to represent the nation, make it look
:18:40. > :18:44.recognisable and account for the women team members. That had not
:18:44. > :18:50.been done in previous Games. Also, were you involved in the Opening
:18:50. > :18:56.Ceremony? I did not do the Opening Ceremony. You're not to blame but
:18:56. > :19:02.those strange tracksuits? I felt like Elvis. You were not
:19:02. > :19:07.responsible question mark Chris looks good. I did not do the
:19:07. > :19:12.Opening Ceremony. Your dad sang at the Opening Ceremony, it must have
:19:12. > :19:18.been extremely proud? We were watching it and then halfway
:19:18. > :19:23.through the beginning I was thinking, Dad the you will be down
:19:23. > :19:32.there in a moment. He was as cool as a cucumber. It was an amazing
:19:32. > :19:39.moment. This is hymn-singing at the finale. About 24 million watching
:19:39. > :19:46.at that stage. All in a day's work. He did the family proud. Was he
:19:46. > :19:52.nervous? I don't think he gets nervous. He just deals with it. I
:19:52. > :19:57.feel like I am going to feint. knew he was going to play a few
:19:57. > :20:05.weeks and advance, because it's slipped out. I think he told
:20:05. > :20:11.everyone. I had to tell him to shut up. What about the Olympics, have
:20:11. > :20:15.you watched any sport so far? this has made me really interested.
:20:15. > :20:23.I have always been an avid fan, but a working with the athletes, I
:20:23. > :20:33.admire them. I was poking Victoria Pendleton's stomach and saying,
:20:33. > :20:36.
:20:36. > :20:43.really?! Is that really your stomach? Being vault at this level
:20:43. > :20:50.with this event has brought me, I am so interested in it now. --
:20:50. > :20:55.being involved. Now I am obsessed. Which sport in particular? I cannot
:20:55. > :21:00.say just one, I have been to the swimming, the diving and I have
:21:00. > :21:06.loved watching it on telly. You're doing a great job. Thanks for
:21:07. > :21:16.coming in. He might fancy sitting there a little while longer. We
:21:17. > :21:33.
:21:33. > :21:43.have the women's team competition team. Two gymnasts from America
:21:43. > :21:59.
:21:59. > :22:09.fantastic. The best of vaulting I have ever seen. Legs glued together,
:22:09. > :22:19.
:22:19. > :22:29.rocketed into the air. And they are may remember she took the silver at
:22:29. > :22:52.
:22:52. > :23:02.Beijing. Spectacular in the race bars. Beautiful were. The fight is
:23:02. > :23:24.
:23:24. > :23:31.vault of. They are expecting a lot from her. A big step to the side
:23:31. > :23:41.when she landed. Just give us an idea of the deduction, because it
:23:41. > :23:43.
:23:43. > :23:47.looked here among us. It was a very big step to the side. It is a big
:23:47. > :23:57.score still come about Russia were relying on back to be something
:23:57. > :23:57.
:23:57. > :24:46.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 95 seconds
:24:46. > :24:51.moment. She really knows how to work this apparatus. That was a
:24:51. > :25:01.huge dismount. And very good work. It was a big routine all the way
:25:01. > :25:02.
:25:02. > :25:07.through. Russia chasing the USA and that will inch them closer. What
:25:07. > :25:17.can Great Britain do here? Qualifying we went a whiff 42.5, so
:25:17. > :25:27.we are hoping they can do as well. The cheering is for Beth Tweddle
:25:27. > :25:30.
:25:30. > :25:37.and all eyes are focused on her. The arena is absolutely silent now.
:25:37. > :25:47.This tumble is so complex. 1.5, into double Arabian. Just poked her
:25:47. > :25:47.
:25:47. > :26:46.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 95 seconds
:26:46. > :26:56.toe out. This tumble needs all her best. -- really worked hard. Up
:26:56. > :26:57.
:26:57. > :27:02.into that 2.5 twists. Great performance. Little shake of the
:27:02. > :27:12.head, I think she is a bit annoyed she put her toe out on the first
:27:12. > :27:18.tumble. So, be prepared to be introduced to the flying squirrel.
:27:18. > :27:28.This is Gabriel Douglas. She is a really good bar worker in the US
:27:28. > :28:00.
:28:00. > :28:09.straight dismount. Great swinging. That is a good set of scores for
:28:09. > :28:19.Great Britain. The standings then after that rotation. Great Britain
:28:19. > :28:25.
:28:25. > :28:33.have moved up a place. Jennifer Pinches. Double twist, nicely done.
:28:33. > :28:43.What a comeback. This is a big vault. She hits the top, lips high.
:28:43. > :28:49.
:28:49. > :28:59.Very clean. She is happy with that. This will be something. Sandro
:28:59. > :28:59.
:28:59. > :30:22.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 95 seconds
:30:22. > :30:32.Raluca Izbasa, she is the current says it all. A great performance.
:30:32. > :30:49.
:30:49. > :30:54.Absolutely wonderful. The youngest It's the United States lead Russia.
:30:54. > :30:58.Romania are a third with China pushed out of the medals. Great
:30:58. > :31:08.Britain are down in 7th. Russia are locked in this battle with the
:31:08. > :31:35.
:31:35. > :31:45.deductions for that malt. That was team final. But tears are because

:33:21. > :33:25.well. And a very final bit, she falls away. I AM amazed that that.
:33:25. > :33:31.She looked so confident, so determined and just did not get off
:33:31. > :33:36.the floor. Now the tears are flowing. What has happened to
:33:36. > :33:45.Russia on floor? It is really surprising because these girls do
:33:45. > :33:51.these routines all the time. She collapsed. Could not get the
:33:51. > :33:59.shoulders up quick enough. This is so upsetting DC. All that effort,
:33:59. > :34:06.all that preparation. A question is, will Russia be ahead of Romania
:34:06. > :34:16.after this piece of apparatus? It may be enough, 14.333. It shows you
:34:16. > :34:17.
:34:17. > :34:27.the quality of the rest of the work. It is all on this vault. She has
:34:27. > :34:27.
:34:27. > :34:36.got all the experience. That was a very good vault. She held her nerve.
:34:36. > :34:42.So Russia are ahead of Romania. All lies now turn to the uneven bars.
:34:42. > :34:52.Great Britain's Beth Tweddle, can she worked her magic here?

:35:07. > :35:15.bounced off the top of the bar, a Just the big this Matt ago. That
:35:15. > :35:20.was tremendous. Hugely confident, massively difficult. She just did

:35:30. > :36:17.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 95 seconds

:36:27. > :36:53.
:36:53. > :36:58.beautifully controlled. The motion on her face, you can see it. She is
:36:58. > :37:04.just about holding it together, fantastic! It is unsurprising when
:37:04. > :37:10.you consider she has just sealed a gold medal for the USA in this
:37:10. > :37:16.women aged -- women's team championship. What are her final it

:37:44. > :37:48.eyes will be on tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins. None of the
:37:49. > :37:56.complexities of the road race, this is just fastest man wins and he
:37:56. > :38:00.tends to be pretty fast. If you just excuse me, I will speak in
:38:00. > :38:05.English for it. We will draw the raffle numbers now.
:38:05. > :38:10.I did not even have a drink in me when I did that. It is so formal,
:38:10. > :38:14.the dippy President of France who is up there with me. It was not
:38:14. > :38:19.about that which is why I turned to the fans. Are all these people had
:38:19. > :38:24.come, they were the people who had come and supported me. I would love
:38:24. > :38:28.to have brought them a drink. That is what it is all about. Maybe it
:38:28. > :38:32.was disrespectful to the sponsors and all the prawn sandwiches in
:38:32. > :38:42.front of me, I felt it was much more appropriate to give time to
:38:42. > :38:44.
:38:44. > :38:51.them. The country has gone up we go past it. People are sporting
:38:51. > :38:57.sideburns. It has that effect. A bit strange for me but ultimately,
:38:57. > :39:04.I only do it to be individual. It is good. The biggest name in
:39:04. > :39:09.cycling, you are the winner of the Tour de France. Am I bigger than
:39:09. > :39:13.Cavendish? I have not done a head- and-shoulders advert. The scale of
:39:13. > :39:17.the win and the reaction in this country, do you pinch yourself?
:39:17. > :39:21.was a bit overwhelming. I was so used to seeing that happen to other
:39:22. > :39:24.people like Chris Hoy when he came back from Beijing. I did not think
:39:24. > :39:29.any of us really appreciate what cycling is going through at the
:39:29. > :39:33.moment because we concentrate on our performances. I think we are
:39:33. > :39:37.all pretty down-to-earth guys anyway. We do not fully appreciate
:39:37. > :39:40.what it is doing to the profile of the sport. To win the Tour de
:39:41. > :39:47.France takes an incredible effort, what kind of sacrifice is do have
:39:47. > :39:51.to make to get to where you are? lot. Apart from the training
:39:51. > :39:56.physical side which everyone does, six weeks you go and live on top of
:39:56. > :40:00.a mountain in Tenerife. I miss children's birthdays, the kids
:40:00. > :40:05.break-up for their Easter holidays and you were leaving. They do not
:40:05. > :40:09.know where you are fitted. You sleep in the spare bedroom, in a
:40:09. > :40:13.tent. Being a father and husband and all that is not conducive to
:40:13. > :40:18.trying to win the Tour de France. The two do not go together but, you
:40:18. > :40:23.know, if you have got a supportive family as I have, you can do it.
:40:23. > :40:33.But I do not know how long you can do it for. I would not do six of
:40:33. > :40:37.them like Lance did. This is Your 4th Olympics, you have won six
:40:37. > :40:41.medals and you are steeped in Olympic history, what do the
:40:42. > :40:46.Olympics mean to you? This is something you come back to four --
:40:46. > :40:50.every four years. Because they are not every year, you do not really
:40:50. > :40:56.miss them. To come back here, the same people, the same staff, every
:40:56. > :41:00.four years I get a bit older and more successful. From this 19-year-
:41:00. > :41:04.old lad in Sydney right through. I am looking forward to going out
:41:04. > :41:11.there and trying to win my 4th gold in the time-trial. It will be
:41:11. > :41:16.amazing. Someone mentioned to me the other day it had not given a
:41:16. > :41:22.thought to, I am unbeaten in time trials this year. I never give it a
:41:22. > :41:28.thought. That is quite a nice statistic going into the Olympics,
:41:28. > :41:32.I am sure, but the Olympics, you have got to be at your best. I
:41:32. > :41:36.think I am at my best at the moment. I have just won the Tour de France,
:41:36. > :41:40.so I must be! How a safe journey and do not get
:41:40. > :41:44.too drunk. Bradley Wiggins there with Jill
:41:44. > :41:49.Douglas. Our other cycling expert has joined me, Chris Boardman. We
:41:49. > :41:55.have seen Michael Phelps beat a particularly difficult record,
:41:55. > :42:00.Bradley Wiggins can overtake Steve Redgrave's remarkable record of
:42:00. > :42:05.most medals for a brick. He will get another record during a raffle
:42:05. > :42:10.for 30 million people. It is suddenly, a bit like Steve, you get
:42:10. > :42:15.a lot of medals build up and no one notices until you get a certain
:42:15. > :42:19.record level and then they realised the record behind it. That would
:42:19. > :42:24.certainly be something. I think barring accident, illness tomorrow,
:42:24. > :42:30.he has got light going. A lot of commentators are saying this course
:42:30. > :42:35.is made for Bradley, why? It is slightly biased but it is in London,
:42:35. > :42:41.his home town. Round here, there are not many hills, there is an
:42:41. > :42:45.undulating course which is perfect for him. He would have taken on no
:42:45. > :42:50.matter what. Tired after Sunday's road race. He worked really hard
:42:50. > :42:54.for Mark Cavendish but so did everyone else. How do you ride at a
:42:54. > :43:01.time trial, it is not as intricate as the other one, is it? Is this
:43:01. > :43:05.just hell for their third -- hell- for-leather, head down? If you go
:43:05. > :43:11.off too hard, too early, you will pay a price and that price will
:43:11. > :43:16.affect the rest of the race. It is a very fine art. He is very good at
:43:16. > :43:20.it. I do not think he has lost a long time trial this year. The last
:43:20. > :43:25.one, he was devastated in the Tour de France. Apart from the fact he's
:43:25. > :43:29.very fast, what makes him so good? I think his ability to learn. He
:43:29. > :43:32.has made mistakes in the past and Bradley will say that himself, but
:43:32. > :43:37.he has got the courage to look in the mirror and learn from those
:43:37. > :43:42.areas. This year, particularly, in the Tour de France, tactically,
:43:42. > :43:48.technically, physically, everything was bang on. It is very impressive
:43:48. > :43:53.to watch. I read this morning he has reduced his paddle speed. I am
:43:53. > :43:58.no expert but I wonder how that can be an advantage in cycling? --
:43:58. > :44:03.pedal speed. It is about getting the power out. There is a trend
:44:03. > :44:07.towards very height pedalling rate to reduce stress on muscles but
:44:07. > :44:12.this is less than an hour of racing, it is all about power so he is
:44:12. > :44:18.focused on that. In the women's, we have already had a silver from live
:44:18. > :44:22.the -- Lizzie Armistead, has Emma Pooley got a chance? She is in form
:44:22. > :44:30.at the moment. Favourites are Armstrong of the USA and Judith
:44:30. > :44:34.Arndt of Germany. Emma Pooley has got a good shot at a medal. Let's
:44:34. > :44:40.hope so. Chris, thank you very much indeed. Both the men and women's
:44:40. > :44:50.time-trials are tomorrow starting at 12:30pm and 2:15pm respectively.
:44:50. > :44:52.
:44:52. > :44:57.Here is the confirmation of those If you have come in late, here are
:44:57. > :45:01.the headlines. Michael Phelps was denied a third
:45:01. > :45:09.strike gold in the men's 200m butterfly. South Africa's Chad le
:45:09. > :45:13.Clos beat him in a stunning finish. However, that silver, plus gold in
:45:13. > :45:21.the freestyle relay made Phelps the most successful Olympian of all
:45:21. > :45:26.time with 19 medals. Team GB's Michael Jamieson stormed into the
:45:26. > :45:33.200m breaststroke final in a new record time. Andrew Willis also
:45:33. > :45:39.qualified. Great Britain's eventing team, including Zara Phillips, won
:45:39. > :45:44.a superb silver medal behind Germany at Greenwich Park. Tina
:45:44. > :45:50.Cook and Mary King just missed out on a second medal in the individual
:45:50. > :45:55.equestrian event as Michael Jung made it double gold for Germany.
:45:55. > :46:05.World number one David Florent was knocked out in the semi-finals as
:46:05. > :46:19.
:46:19. > :46:26.France's Tony Estanguet won gold in add to the tally previously. Things
:46:26. > :46:31.will start to change. -- Team GB. Things will start to change because
:46:31. > :46:36.we have rowing and cycling this week. Women's football has been
:46:36. > :46:40.impressive so far with Team GB winning their first two games. They
:46:40. > :46:47.were already through to the quarter-finals regardless of how
:46:47. > :46:52.they get on with Brazil. But this was sure to be a test?
:46:52. > :46:56.As Wembley has failed up, the excitement has grown. The Great
:46:56. > :47:01.Britain players a well-remembered the moment they walked onto the
:47:01. > :47:07.hallowed turf for the rest of their lives. A tremendous burst of
:47:07. > :47:11.cheering to put more pride and fire into their hearts. If this does not
:47:11. > :47:21.lift them to an even greater level of performance we have already seen,
:47:21. > :47:22.
:47:22. > :47:29.then nothing well. Ife Dieke suffered Croatia at limit --
:47:29. > :47:39.ligaments injury. Sophie Bradley will start her for the first time.
:47:39. > :47:44.
:47:44. > :47:54.Casey Stoney in defence. The Brazilian side is different from
:47:54. > :48:12.
:48:12. > :48:18.to Alex Scott. In typical fashion getting forward down the right hand
:48:18. > :48:22.side. Great Britain will fancy their chances from set-pieces.
:48:22. > :48:32.Brazil have shown themselves to look a bit frail at times in
:48:32. > :48:43.
:48:43. > :48:48.incredible. What an Olympic moment Steph Haughton is having a false
:48:48. > :48:53.start she has now scored in every game she has played. Great Britain
:48:53. > :49:00.have the lead at less than two minutes in. Steph Haughton is
:49:00. > :49:04.having the time of her life. The ball came out from the corner.
:49:04. > :49:10.Landed at the feet of Karen Carney who did well to turn into a little
:49:10. > :49:18.bit of space. I think Brazil were trying to play the offside. She got
:49:18. > :49:22.it in from such a tight angle. You can sense they have more condoms
:49:22. > :49:32.from their wins. Steph Haughton could have gone down there, but she
:49:32. > :50:02.
:50:02. > :50:12.wanted to score. What a great ball created a bit of an opportunity.
:50:12. > :50:19.
:50:19. > :50:29.Put her in space, and she will players, they have a lot of
:50:29. > :50:37.
:50:37. > :50:42.It was a nothing ball into the box and it wasn't dealt with between
:50:42. > :50:52.Alex got. In the end it could have ended up in the gold. I think that
:50:52. > :50:58.could have been the goalkeeper's fault. -- Alex Scott. Kelley Smith!
:50:58. > :51:05.Just didn't quite catch it with the outside of her boot. It was a great
:51:05. > :51:15.ball by Steph Haughton. Kelley Smith's left but is unbelievable.
:51:15. > :51:47.
:51:47. > :51:54.Just not enough slice. What great the goalkeeper, Suntaque. A grade
:51:54. > :52:00.cross by Eni Aluko. Team GB have just got to soaks this up. There
:52:00. > :52:10.will be pressure and determination. If you decisions going Brazil's way,
:52:10. > :52:20.
:52:20. > :52:30.Bardsley has been tested. It is a solid save. Karen Kelley just did
:52:30. > :52:49.
:52:49. > :52:59.touch and one-touch passing. And Eni Aluko needed to keep her head.
:52:59. > :52:59.
:52:59. > :53:09.Can she do it this time? The penalty has been given for GB. Team
:53:09. > :53:10.
:53:10. > :53:15.GB have the chance to go 2-0 up. you get behind the defender, they
:53:15. > :53:22.have the balance to stop you. doubt about the decision. Blatant
:53:22. > :53:27.penalty. This is what Kelley Smith was born to do. But it is a great
:53:27. > :53:34.save by the goalkeeper. Kelley Smith has missed her moment, will
:53:34. > :53:44.it come back to haunt the British team? She has obviously been
:53:44. > :53:45.
:53:45. > :53:55.watching how Kelley Smith does it. You can see it in her face. The
:53:55. > :54:11.
:54:11. > :54:21.First touch by Miraildes Maciel Mota, but she is equal to it, Karen
:54:21. > :54:52.
:54:52. > :55:02.super match. She has needed to be Brazil's best player. Physically
:55:02. > :55:13.
:55:14. > :55:21.Bardsley, that it was like plucking apples off a treat. She shoved off
:55:21. > :55:27.a couple of challenges and set herself up nicely. The women's
:55:28. > :55:32.football tournament is hotting up. Great Britain had secured a
:55:32. > :55:38.magnificent win at Wembley. The scenes will tell you what it means
:55:38. > :55:42.because they have come through top of the group with a 100% record.
:55:42. > :55:52.Wins against New Zealand, Cameron and get this - against Brazil at
:55:52. > :55:53.
:55:53. > :56:01.Wembley. What an effort. A perfect record for the women. Brazil and
:56:01. > :56:11.New Zealand also go through to the quarter-finals. Team GB's next
:56:11. > :56:15.Fay White, what a performance? occasion in itself, but the women's
:56:15. > :56:19.team to play at the new Wembley in front of a massive crowd, but beat
:56:19. > :56:24.Brazil, one of the favourites and finished top of the group is
:56:24. > :56:31.unbelievable. They will be so delighted with their performance
:56:31. > :56:38.and so they should be. They play the third team from the other group,
:56:38. > :56:45.which is Canada and gives them a better chance of getting into the
:56:45. > :56:51.semi-final? Yes, I am sure Brazil not be relishing their draw, but to
:56:51. > :56:55.play Canada gives us an opportunity. Steph Hatton has scored again,
:56:55. > :57:01.full-back scored in every game? don't think she could have dreamt
:57:02. > :57:07.to perform better. -- Steph Haughton. She is a young player who
:57:07. > :57:13.they tipped as an all round, versatile player with so many
:57:13. > :57:18.attributes. Heading, she is quick and one of the fittest in the team.
:57:18. > :57:23.She is a great free kick taker. Kelley Smith missed a penalty, but
:57:23. > :57:29.there is no shame in missing a penalty against Brazil at Wembley?
:57:29. > :57:33.I have missed a penalty, but not against Brazil at Wembley. Michael
:57:33. > :57:40.Phelps has broken the Olympic record by collecting his 19th medal.
:57:40. > :57:47.Plenty going on on BBC Three. You can see Australia against Brazil in
:57:47. > :57:52.volleyball. And via the red button, you can watch what you like. Gabby
:57:52. > :58:02.Logan it will be back after the news. We are switching to BBC Two.
