:01:03. > :01:07.Jamieson qualified fastest in the final. Willis was third quickest.

:01:07. > :01:14.Jennison and Willis are aiming to emulate the great David Wilkie, who

:01:14. > :01:17.won 200m breaststroke gold 36 years ago.

:01:17. > :01:25.Staying in the pool, Jemma Lowe goes for Great Britain in the final

:01:51. > :01:58.to book their place in the quarter- finals. A draw against Uruguay will

:01:58. > :02:02.do the job. And they have already got a team

:02:02. > :02:11.medal in the bag. Now British gymnasts Kristian Thomas and Dan

:02:11. > :02:15.Purvis are aiming for individual glory.

:02:15. > :02:25.Over the first 20 minutes, we will look back over the events of the

:02:25. > :02:40.

:02:40. > :02:46.If you would prefer to see Great Britain take on Uruguay in the

:02:46. > :02:50.football, join Jake on BBC Three. Kick-off is at 7:45pm. We start now

:02:51. > :02:54.with rowing, and a genuine British gold medal chance in the finals at

:02:54. > :03:04.Eton Dorney. Heather Stanning and Helen Glover went for Team GB in

:03:04. > :03:09.

:03:09. > :03:16.Stanning and Helen Glover could be booking a place on the front page

:03:16. > :03:23.of every paper in the country. final chapter of a remarkable story

:03:23. > :03:26.is now under way. They are minutes from Olympic history. Already now,

:03:26. > :03:32.Great Britain have absolutely jumped out of the starting gate. It

:03:32. > :03:42.is game on. Great Britain looking fine. They are settling into their

:03:42. > :03:42.

:03:42. > :03:49.rhythm. Helen Glover and Heather Stanning are storming away. Two and

:03:49. > :03:54.a half years ago, they were the spares in the British team. Here,

:03:54. > :03:58.it is a fantastic fairy tale story. 1200 metres to go to they become

:03:58. > :04:03.the first British winners ever to win an Olympic gold in rowing. We

:04:03. > :04:09.are right on the edge of our seats. Look at that, it is simply stunning

:04:09. > :04:16.from Helen Glover and Heather Stanning. They are moving away with

:04:16. > :04:24.power and grace. The grandstands are on their feet. The flags are

:04:24. > :04:30.going absolutely mad. It is Great Britain's first Olympic gold medal

:04:30. > :04:40.at the 2012 games, and they are doing it in style. They are making

:04:40. > :04:43.

:04:43. > :04:48.history here at Eton Dorney. Great Britain go into the record books.

:04:48. > :04:51.Great Britain are Olympic champions! Helen Glover and Heather

:04:52. > :04:59.Stanning, we stand up and salute you for the British rowing team and

:04:59. > :05:06.for the country, as a whole. I am shattered and ecstatic at the same

:05:06. > :05:16.time. What a triumph for them. It is Great Britain's first gold medal

:05:16. > :05:21.What they are wonderful effort, Britain's first gold of the Games.

:05:21. > :05:26.I am joined by Sir Steve Redgrave. In 1976, women's rowing first came

:05:26. > :05:30.in. 10 Olympics later, a first gold. Didn't they do it in style? They

:05:30. > :05:34.always could do it in style. They have shown over the last two

:05:34. > :05:37.seasons that they had the potential to do that. Their first

:05:37. > :05:41.championship together was in New Zealand two years ago, and they

:05:41. > :05:45.burst onto the scene. I thought they were spares for the women's

:05:45. > :05:51.eight. They made the final, and I was quoted in a New Zealand paper

:05:51. > :05:58.saying they had done well to make the final, but maybe 5th, 4th at

:05:58. > :06:01.best, and they won a silver medal. Last season, they dominated the

:06:01. > :06:09.whole of the season and lost the World Championships by a couple of

:06:09. > :06:15.inches. This year, they have been dominating races like that. I used

:06:15. > :06:19.to be an athlete. You never know what will happen. But they blew my

:06:19. > :06:22.expectations away. They both have incredible stories. They are on

:06:22. > :06:27.their way. They are stuck in traffic, but they will come into

:06:27. > :06:32.the studio this evening. So are we, you got me instead. No, you were

:06:32. > :06:37.coming anyway. You are foremost expert on all things rolling. But

:06:37. > :06:43.they have great stories. One of them took up rowing four years ago.

:06:43. > :06:48.One of them is a soldier. Helen watched the Olympics on TV four

:06:48. > :06:54.years ago. Always loved sport. She has done various other sports at

:06:54. > :06:57.different levels and thought, I fancy doing some of that. Five

:06:57. > :07:05.years ago, I launched the sporting giants programme, which is trying

:07:05. > :07:08.to find ladies of 5 ft 11 and guise of 6 ft 3 plus for rowing,

:07:08. > :07:14.volleyball and handball. And she put herself forward and made it

:07:14. > :07:18.through the selection. Four years!? How can you go from four years ago,

:07:18. > :07:22.not having sat in a boat, to winning a gold medal? It is about

:07:22. > :07:27.getting the right size and the right engines in the white sports.

:07:27. > :07:35.It makes a huge amount of difference. And obviously great

:07:35. > :07:39.coaching. But you need a great athlete as well. And Heather goes

:07:40. > :07:44.to Afghanistan in a few months' time. It is nice that we were able

:07:44. > :07:48.to play her a clip of some of the forces who are out there in the

:07:48. > :07:53.battalion, washing her luck as she got off the water. There were some

:07:53. > :07:59.great emotions after the race. You spend time chatting to them, and

:07:59. > :08:08.that was the moment I realised they had gone seven minutes without

:08:08. > :08:13.pausing for breath. I do not know them that well. Helen sort of dive

:08:13. > :08:19.into my arms and was blubbing in my ear. And I was thinking, control

:08:19. > :08:24.yourself. If Catherine gets anywhere near winning a gold medal

:08:24. > :08:29.on Friday, I will really be struggling. I will need the tissues.

:08:29. > :08:35.I look forward to seeing that. Pen to Nora Owen to come, with nine

:08:35. > :08:39.other boats already guaranteed a final spot. Team GB has plenty of

:08:39. > :08:43.other opportunities on the water at Eton Dorney. One of those was in

:08:43. > :08:48.the men's final eight, including Greg Searle, gold medal winner of

:08:48. > :08:52.20 years ago in Barcelona, which leads me to my faith -- favourite

:08:52. > :09:02.statistics are far. Greg's lucky socks are older than some of his

:09:02. > :09:07.

:09:07. > :09:17.team-mates. But tough competition have never been put under this much

:09:17. > :09:26.

:09:27. > :09:32.pressure. We are moving towards the line. The British are coming!

:09:32. > :09:36.is a fairy-tale. Great Britain, up there, against Germany, the world

:09:36. > :09:41.champions. They were unbeaten last year and a year before. Great

:09:41. > :09:46.Britain are pushing on. Guys, now it is all about you. It is all

:09:46. > :09:54.about the team. It is all about sheer determination. But the

:09:54. > :10:01.Germans have responded. We are into the last 500m. There is nothing in

:10:01. > :10:08.it! Germany, Great Britain, Canada. This is coming down to the wire.

:10:08. > :10:13.Like 20 years ago, Greg Searle, if not now, when? This is your time.

:10:13. > :10:17.Drive it to the line at! Germany have all that flexibility and

:10:17. > :10:22.experience, but now they are beginning to edge away. Great

:10:22. > :10:31.Britain have to put it all into the last 400m. The world champions are

:10:31. > :10:35.leading now. The Germans responded well. Watch out for Canada, the

:10:35. > :10:40.defending Olympic champions. One last chance for Great Britain. You

:10:40. > :10:45.have got to claw your way to the line. Great Britain are slipping

:10:45. > :10:50.back. Canada just slipped past Great Britain. Great Britain are

:10:50. > :10:55.hanging on to that bronze medal. is Germany that will be the Olympic

:10:55. > :11:00.champions. Canada coming through in silver, and Great Britain into

:11:00. > :11:04.bronze medal position. Great Britain get the bronze, but what a

:11:04. > :11:10.challenge they gave for a 1500m. Germany were so grateful to have

:11:10. > :11:14.got home. They have maintained their unbroken record, and I are

:11:14. > :11:24.Olympic champions. Grey Britain had us on the edge of our seats, but it

:11:24. > :11:24.

:11:25. > :11:29.is a bronze medal for today for the It was quite a race. They put up a

:11:29. > :11:34.great effort, the eight. At halfway, you start to think, gold again?

:11:34. > :11:39.They could have played it safe and won a silver, even though that

:11:39. > :11:43.field is quite tight. But they were determined. There are a number of

:11:43. > :11:46.athletes there who have won Olympic silvers. All of them have the world

:11:46. > :11:51.championship silver medals, but they thought that was not good

:11:51. > :11:57.enough. They gave it everything they had got to win a gold. You

:11:57. > :12:02.have to admire them. A do you applaud that? I do, because we did

:12:02. > :12:07.not know. The Germans have not been pushed. As I said to the guise as

:12:07. > :12:12.they came off the water, especially Greg, obviously they were very

:12:12. > :12:16.depressed. But I am immensely proud of what they did, because they made

:12:16. > :12:19.the Germans win it. We didn't lose. The Germans were favourite. They

:12:19. > :12:24.have not lost an international regatta in the last three years, so

:12:24. > :12:27.we had to do something special. They did everything they wanted to

:12:27. > :12:32.do. At the end of the day, the Germans were better. Is it a sign

:12:32. > :12:40.of how far rowing has come, in the sense that bronze is not good

:12:40. > :12:43.enough? It is likely. We have three more boats in semi-finals tomorrow.

:12:43. > :12:50.All 13 boats which have qualified will realistically be racing in

:12:50. > :12:54.finals. The three tomorrow have great chances of metals. 13 boats

:12:54. > :12:58.qualified out of 14 events, and they are all in finals. In finals,

:12:58. > :13:04.you have chances of winning medals. A lot more medals will come in the

:13:04. > :13:08.next few days in Reading. Why are we so good at rowing? I think

:13:08. > :13:12.success breeds success. For eight Olympic Games running, we have now

:13:12. > :13:19.won gold medals at Olympic level. So people think, they have done it

:13:19. > :13:23.before, so I can do that. And the coaching team are second to none.

:13:23. > :13:29.The team manager has been involved in international rowing and British

:13:29. > :13:34.rowing since the '70s. The chief coaches for the men's and women's

:13:34. > :13:38.team have been in those roles for a long time. There's a lot of

:13:38. > :13:42.expertise being handed down. Our under 23 team is pretty good. If a

:13:42. > :13:46.number of these athletes give up, we will still have a good team in

:13:46. > :13:53.four years' time. Here are their other headlines from

:13:53. > :13:58.Eton Dorney. Favourites Ukraine won gold in the

:13:58. > :14:01.women's quadruple sculls final. Great Britain's Quartet came home

:14:01. > :14:06.six. A Northern Ireland's Alan Campbell

:14:06. > :14:12.made it through to Friday's men's single sculls final after coming

:14:12. > :14:16.second in his semi-. And rising young British stars

:14:16. > :14:22.George Nash and Will Satch storm to victory in their men's pairs semi-

:14:22. > :14:25.final. Another of Great Britain's biggest

:14:26. > :14:35.gold medal hopes was Bradley Wiggins in the men's time-trial.

:14:36. > :15:03.

:15:03. > :15:08.The Tour de France winner was a a time trial this year. What an

:15:08. > :15:12.opportunity for him. A Londoner at heart. Lives in the north-west now,

:15:12. > :15:22.but he considers these home-grown it's a fantastic once-in-a-lifetime

:15:22. > :15:31.

:15:31. > :15:41.of La sat at the minute. Tony Martin, he knows how to write a

:15:41. > :15:43.

:15:43. > :15:53.time-trial. This is Bradley Wiggins, a nice, compact style. Chris Froome

:15:53. > :15:55.

:15:55. > :16:02.is on a ride. 12 seconds quicker than Chris Froome, Tony Martin the

:16:02. > :16:08.world champion. There is that time to beat. Bradley Wiggins is going

:16:08. > :16:15.to go into the lead. 11 seconds faster than Martin, he is the

:16:15. > :16:24.leader. Fabian Cancellara is out of this. It is only Wiggins who can

:16:24. > :16:31.pressurise Martin. This is impressive stuff. 22 seconds the

:16:31. > :16:41.difference between Bradley Wiggins and Martin. He is leading by 22

:16:41. > :16:43.

:16:43. > :16:49.seconds. This is Chris Froome and the crowd are roaring him on. The

:16:49. > :16:54.runner up in the Tour de France goes into the lead. He has not lost

:16:54. > :17:04.any fluidity at all, Bradley Wiggins. He is absolute poetry in

:17:04. > :17:09.motion. Here comes Tony Martin driving for the line. A good ride

:17:10. > :17:14.by Martin. He is in the gold medal position. Here comes Bradley

:17:14. > :17:20.Wiggins now, the winner of that third of France, the holder of

:17:20. > :17:26.three gold medals in the Olympic Games. He has got six medals to his

:17:26. > :17:34.credit in the Olympics. Here comes Bradley Wiggins up to the line.

:17:34. > :17:39.Bradley Wiggins is the Olympic champion. It is gold and gold for

:17:39. > :17:47.Bradley Wiggins, his 4th gold medal and the 7th medal in the Olympic

:17:47. > :17:53.Games. He is the greatest British achiever of all time. Just going

:17:53. > :17:58.through Kingston at the end of the noise was amazing. I do not think

:17:58. > :18:02.my sporting career whatever top that. What a month it has been.

:18:02. > :18:09.Winning the Tour de France and the time trial in London. It will never

:18:09. > :18:19.get any better than that. And if these people are wearing sideburns

:18:19. > :18:20.

:18:20. > :18:25.cheering you on. Now that medal and another 4th gold, Britain's most

:18:25. > :18:30.decorated Olympian. What does that mean? This morning I kept seeing

:18:30. > :18:35.these reports on the television and to be honest it had to be gold

:18:35. > :18:40.today or nothing. What is the point of having seven medals if they are

:18:40. > :18:45.not the right colour? I have to carry on to Rio de Janeiro and go

:18:45. > :18:51.for a number five. Just to be mentioned in the same breath as

:18:51. > :19:01.Steve Redgrave and Sir Chris Hoy, it is an honour. To be up there

:19:01. > :19:07.with those guys is very special. tops and very elite table. He has

:19:07. > :19:17.just taken over from Sir Steve Redgrave. That really is quite

:19:17. > :19:21.

:19:21. > :19:28.something. You have been usurped. I watched him four years ago in the

:19:28. > :19:33.team pursuit. It was absolutely fantastic, smashing the world

:19:33. > :19:41.record. A cycling journalist walked past and said, it Bradley can win a

:19:41. > :19:46.medal of any colour, he is going to go past your record. I thought what

:19:46. > :19:54.record is that? I did not realise I had that record and tell four years

:19:54. > :19:58.ago. At least I have had four years of knowing I have had that honour.

:19:58. > :20:04.But he is a great guy. I know him reasonably well and I cannot think

:20:04. > :20:10.of a better guide to go past me. Chris will go past me in a couple

:20:10. > :20:18.of days as well. We have got another Chris, Chris Boardman. The

:20:18. > :20:23.Tour de France winner of the back of an Olympic win, what a sporting

:20:23. > :20:29.hero? A week ago I was working on the Tour de France and I watched

:20:29. > :20:32.Bradley Wiggins, a Brit in the yellow jersey leading out Mark

:20:32. > :20:38.Cavendish the world champion to win the final stage and then come here

:20:38. > :20:43.to win the Olympic gold medal. It is an unprecedented time in British

:20:43. > :20:49.cycling. He owns the word unprecedented at the moment. Only

:20:49. > :20:54.Miguel Indurain has achieved a similar fate? The fact we are

:20:54. > :20:59.talking about Bradley Wiggins alongside him and cycling's

:20:59. > :21:04.absolute greats is fantastic. It is going to take as a long time to

:21:04. > :21:11.work out what has happened. He is not an archetypal Brit, he is quite

:21:11. > :21:15.confident. Before the race he said, I am going to win this, he is not

:21:15. > :21:19.typically British. He will take responsibility for it and he knows

:21:19. > :21:25.he is the favourite, but it has taken him many years to deal with

:21:25. > :21:30.that kind of pressure. We saw at his acceptance speech at the Tour

:21:30. > :21:35.de France he stands up with a microphone and says, we are going

:21:35. > :21:42.to draw the raffle in a minute. He is a character, an individual and

:21:42. > :21:48.fascinating to watch. He is a winner, isn't he? I have seen him

:21:48. > :21:53.perform many times and when I was still racing on training camps the

:21:53. > :21:59.tour de France would be on and we used to watch it a great deal. We

:21:59. > :22:05.thought a Brit would never win it, not in my lifetime anyway. Just

:22:05. > :22:12.literally what they have done is immense. Den Mark Cavendish gave it

:22:12. > :22:17.a fantastic crack in the road race. Is it right Bradley Wiggins has not

:22:17. > :22:23.lost a time-trial this year? That is right. We have not talked about

:22:23. > :22:29.Chris Froome. We must talk about him. He could end at being Bradley

:22:29. > :22:35.Wiggins' biggest challenger in a few years to come. At the moment it

:22:35. > :22:40.is just incredible. We are also hoping Bradley Wiggins will be

:22:40. > :22:44.coming in. He is on his way. We have a proud tradition of

:22:44. > :22:49.breaststroke swimming in the Games. Can Michael Jamieson and Andrew

:22:49. > :22:59.Willis adds to it tonight? That is David Wilkie, Duncan

:22:59. > :23:03.

:23:03. > :23:13.Goodhew. Duncan Goodhew had the best start. David Wilkie is going

:23:13. > :23:14.

:23:14. > :23:23.to turn first. Adrian Moorhouse in 6th position. We have a gold

:23:23. > :23:30.medallist and a world record. are only 10m to go. It is a gold

:23:31. > :23:40.medal for Duncan Goodhew. Adrian Moorhouse has got it. Olympic gold

:23:40. > :23:44.medallist. Gold to Britain. Let's get over to the Aquatics Centre and

:23:44. > :23:50.it is straight in at the deep end with Michael Jamieson and Andrew

:23:50. > :23:57.Willis going in the first final. Ian Thorpe has deserted me. What is

:23:57. > :24:04.going on? What are you going to do without me? I am quite happy to be

:24:04. > :24:12.here. You are glad to be here. quite excited about the swimming

:24:12. > :24:19.tonight. And we have got a special friend. We have got two Betty

:24:19. > :24:29.Suarez in our very first final at 7:30pm, the 200m breaststroke. This

:24:29. > :24:50.

:24:50. > :24:58.Jemma Lowe is in the 200m butterfly Ryan Lochte is in two lots of semi-

:24:58. > :25:08.finals. USA are hot favourites to win the women's 4 x 400 metres

:25:08. > :25:14.

:25:14. > :25:20.freestyle relay. Let's find out more about Michael Jamieson. This

:25:20. > :25:25.is your time, isn't it? Yes, I certainly hope so. I have got the

:25:26. > :25:30.experience now of competing at this level. It is my first Olympic Games,

:25:30. > :25:37.but I have been to the Commonwealth Games and the world championships

:25:37. > :25:41.go I have got enough experience to rely on high pressure situations.

:25:41. > :25:48.Listen to this, the adrenalin has gone racing around his body.

:25:48. > :25:53.Do you see that 200 as the strongest events? Yes, definitely,

:25:53. > :25:58.it is the one I feel most comfortable with. My stroke suits

:25:58. > :26:03.that event, but the 100 has had more of a focus. I am trying to

:26:03. > :26:10.develop that front end speed to help me go out fast in this

:26:10. > :26:15.tournament. Everybody says the breaststroke is difficult. This

:26:15. > :26:21.could be a fantastic opportunity. Yes, that is the way I am looking

:26:21. > :26:30.at it. We do not have an event where we have an American like

:26:30. > :26:40.Michael Phelps. The chasing pack consists of six to eight swimmers

:26:40. > :26:42.

:26:42. > :26:47.who have done under a two. 10th. think he is undoubtedly the best

:26:47. > :26:53.breast Roca of all time, but I am thoroughly looking forward to

:26:53. > :27:01.getting into the swimming pool with them. The semi-final and Jamieson

:27:01. > :27:08.looking pretty good. I am coming into my peak. Another massive

:27:08. > :27:15.British record. It is so exciting to be a part of it. The next medal

:27:15. > :27:20.can come from this man. It is exciting times. Michael Jamieson is

:27:20. > :27:27.23 and Andrew wears his 21. They train together in Bath. How much

:27:27. > :27:30.does it help them to know each other so well? A huge amount. They

:27:30. > :27:36.are good friends and they are going to be in an environment which is

:27:36. > :27:38.tense, but they will be there to get that. They have been at the

:27:38. > :27:43.National Championships, the training group and they are always

:27:43. > :27:47.together. You have got two of the greatest breaststroke as in the

:27:47. > :27:51.world at the moment training together and pushing each other on.

:27:51. > :27:57.As soon as they walk out being a little bit relaxed is a good thing

:27:57. > :28:02.for them. They will come out, here the crowds and hear all the energy

:28:02. > :28:09.from the crowd and to be able to chill out and put your thoughts

:28:09. > :28:15.together is very important. Also in the race is Kosuke Kitajima from

:28:15. > :28:20.Japan. He only finished 5th in the 100m breaststroke, so he has got a

:28:20. > :28:25.lot to prove. He really does and he has been an incredible swim her

:28:25. > :28:31.over a long period of time. He retired from swimming and decided

:28:31. > :28:35.to return. The only question that comes around that is did he give

:28:35. > :28:45.himself enough time? If he is on his game, this will be a tougher

:28:45. > :28:50.

:28:51. > :28:57.race. Hill is favourite for this? There are a lot of it finalists in

:28:57. > :29:01.this race from the championships. We could get one and to all we

:29:01. > :29:09.could get four and five, but I have got a feeling one of our boys is

:29:09. > :29:16.going to do it tonight. Really? is a delight to see you, goodbye.

:29:16. > :29:20.Michael Jamieson's father was a professional footballer in Scotland.

:29:20. > :29:29.Mike Dunn junior was a brilliant junior footballer, but he chose

:29:29. > :29:34.swimming at the age of 13. He would be the first Scot to win gold in

:29:34. > :29:44.the swimming pools since David Wilkie in Montreal in 1976, and the

:29:44. > :29:45.

:29:45. > :29:55.first British man since Adrian Moorhouse. Let's join Adrian

:29:55. > :29:58.

:29:58. > :30:05.for the final of the 200m breaststroke. It looks absolutely

:30:05. > :30:15.beautiful, inviting for breaststroke. We are a bit hyped up,

:30:15. > :30:15.

:30:15. > :30:21.but this is very exciting. The two boys are very capable. You have got

:30:21. > :30:31.two Japanese in one and two. Then you have got Daniel Gyurta, the

:30:31. > :30:47.

:30:47. > :30:53.and the double Olympic champion is in line two. This man could create

:30:53. > :30:59.history. The 29-year-old Japanese man won gold in the 100 and 200

:30:59. > :31:09.breaststroke in Athens. Did it again in Beijing. Can he become the

:31:09. > :31:18.first man ever to do three in a row? Massive ovation for the first

:31:19. > :31:28.of the two Brits. The first of the two Bath swimmers. Listen to this

:31:29. > :31:34.

:31:34. > :31:44.crowd. The roar just carried on. But it did not throw them. They

:31:44. > :31:54.seemed calm. They will have to watch out for Gyurta. He is very

:31:54. > :32:16.

:32:16. > :32:21.strong. Mrs Scott Weltz's to complete the line-up, the

:32:21. > :32:27.slowest qualifier until two days ago, world record holder in the

:32:27. > :32:36.100m breaststroke at, this is the weakest in the field. In theory,

:32:36. > :32:46.but watch him in the first 100. I think we will not worry about him

:32:46. > :32:48.

:32:48. > :32:52.until 150. The race for medals will come from lanes 1-5. Jamieson needs

:32:52. > :33:00.to go half a second quicker in the first 100, because this guy will be

:33:00. > :33:06.coming back like a train. It is going to be a roller-coaster.

:33:06. > :33:16.Jamieson, in the red hat of Great Britain, in the centre. And Andrew

:33:16. > :33:22.

:33:22. > :33:28.Willis also has a red hat in lane breaststroke. Some very good starts.

:33:28. > :33:33.The Brits have done well. In lane three, Andrew Willis from Bath. And

:33:33. > :33:37.also from Bath, Michael Jamieson in four. They are cruising down the

:33:37. > :33:43.first 25 metres, but Kosuke Kitajima looks like he is going

:33:43. > :33:48.very early. With intent. He is the defending champion. He is already a

:33:49. > :33:56.legend at breaststroke. He has two gold medals at two Olympic Games.

:33:56. > :33:59.If he does this, it will be historic. This is good for the

:33:59. > :34:06.Brits, because Kosuke Kitajima is not on form at these Olympics. If

:34:06. > :34:11.they can stay with him, they will be in good shape. Gyurta in lane

:34:11. > :34:16.five, a bit ominous. He is very good in the second 100. Jamieson

:34:16. > :34:25.and Willis need to stay with his pace. The Olympic champion is

:34:25. > :34:29.leading this race. First to turn is Kosuke Kitajima, the double Olympic

:34:29. > :34:34.champion in this a breaststroke event. He is starting to go already.

:34:34. > :34:38.This is a bit frightening. The Brits are going with him. Ricard in

:34:38. > :34:47.lane eight is starting to fade. It looks like it is Gyurta from

:34:47. > :34:54.Hungary in the centre. Gyurta is going to break the world record if

:34:54. > :35:02.he keeps going. He was a danger man from the beginning. The only hope

:35:02. > :35:10.is that he went too early. It is not over. If Dennis and his coming

:35:10. > :35:14.back. So it is Kitajima. Jamieson is starting to catch Gyurta. Gyurta

:35:14. > :35:22.is starting to fade a bit. There are 20 metres to go. Michael

:35:22. > :35:26.Jamieson from Glasgow is coming back. Gyurta in five of. Gyurta

:35:26. > :35:32.wins the gold. It is a fantastic silver medal for Great Britain.

:35:32. > :35:38.Michael Jamieson, what a brilliant swim that was. And his time is

:35:38. > :35:44.another massive British record. Oh, my goodness. That is utterly

:35:44. > :35:51.brilliant. A new world record for Daniel Gyurta of Hungary. The time

:35:51. > :35:55.was utterly brilliant. Jamieson was 0.12 off the old world record. That

:35:55. > :36:02.guy deserves a massive round of applause. The crowd are standing

:36:02. > :36:08.and cheering for that silver medal. That first 100, I thought Gyurta

:36:08. > :36:12.would sit back, but he went for it and held on. But Jamieson was

:36:12. > :36:19.pushing him all the way. He would have felt his breath on his

:36:19. > :36:26.shoulder during the last bit. And Kitajima really did fade badly, and

:36:26. > :36:34.Dennis and caught up. Willis faded in the background. He came 8th in

:36:34. > :36:39.the end, sadly. That is the difference between gold and silver.

:36:39. > :36:46.Jamieson will have an awesome future. He is only 23. What a

:36:46. > :36:55.wonderful swim. Olympic champion, Daniel Gyurta of Hungary, but

:36:55. > :36:59.Michael Jamieson swam unbelievably well. A massive British record. I

:36:59. > :37:09.bet even in his wildest dreams, he did not think he would go that

:37:09. > :37:21.

:37:21. > :37:25.quickly. He has a silver medal at Michael, congratulations. That was

:37:25. > :37:30.extraordinary. We were screaming our heads off. I loved it. I knew I

:37:31. > :37:36.had a bit more to give after last night. As I said yesterday, it is

:37:36. > :37:41.so much easier to swim with a bit of confidence behind you, as I did

:37:41. > :37:45.after the 100. I have had so many messages, it has been unbelievable.

:37:45. > :37:51.I was desperate to get on the podium tonight to repay the faith

:37:51. > :37:57.we have had. Did you think you would go that fast? To be honest, I

:37:57. > :38:03.kinda forgot about the time tonight. It was more tactical. I know how

:38:03. > :38:07.strong Gyurta's last 50 is. He is the fastest in the world, without a

:38:07. > :38:13.doubt. So I tried to stay on his shoulder for the first 100, and the

:38:13. > :38:17.idea was to make a move during the second 25 and have everything on

:38:17. > :38:24.the line in the last 50. You were very controlled. I would be jumping

:38:24. > :38:27.up and down by now. Are you jumping up and down inside? Well, I planned

:38:28. > :38:31.for this night, and that helped with the nerves beforehand. For so

:38:31. > :38:37.many years, I have gone over this in my head and how I was going to

:38:37. > :38:42.be there for it. I can't believe it. I am so delighted. It was a tough

:38:42. > :38:50.race, Andrew. You get everything you had as well. I gave it my all.

:38:50. > :38:55.I am really happy. Michael deserves it. It goes to show that Bath have

:38:55. > :38:59.great coaches and great support staff. Michael deserves it 100%.

:38:59. > :39:04.Really happy for him and it was great for me to experience as well.

:39:04. > :39:08.Our your family here? Yes, and I have a few friends here as well. It

:39:08. > :39:13.is great to have their support. This guy will be tough to beat in

:39:13. > :39:17.the next couple of years. The improvement he has had has been

:39:17. > :39:22.unbelievable. After seeing what he does in training, it is pretty

:39:22. > :39:27.frightening. In a couple of years' time, he will be the man to beat.

:39:27. > :39:31.Enjoy your moment. Or you can ask of any athlete at

:39:31. > :39:35.these games is to come out with the performance of their life. It did a

:39:35. > :39:41.world record to beat Michael Jamieson, and that is some

:39:41. > :39:48.achievement. Phenomenal. What an amazing swim. It took a world

:39:48. > :39:53.record to beat him. Kitajima did not even get a medal in the end.

:39:53. > :40:01.we look at the last length, he came back half a second quicker than

:40:01. > :40:10.Gyurta. Was it the crowd cheering, or was it you in my here? I did get

:40:10. > :40:15.excited. This was a fantastic swim. I think he is a little shocked at

:40:15. > :40:23.how well he went. I don't think he could have anticipated this, coming

:40:23. > :40:31.into the final. If you look at the ages of Andrew Willis and Michael

:40:31. > :40:39.Jamieson, 21 and 23. They will continue. They have a great

:40:39. > :40:42.competitor in Daniel Gyurta from Hungary, though. How impressed were

:40:42. > :40:47.you with what he said in the interview afterwards about the way

:40:47. > :40:52.he had mentally prepared for tonight? It is one of those things.

:40:52. > :40:57.How much can you prepare mentally for an Olympic final? We will see

:40:57. > :41:07.Fran Halsall and Amy Smith in the second semi-final of this. This is

:41:07. > :41:13.

:41:13. > :41:19.in years. Daniela Schreiber. She just stuck her arms back. What did

:41:19. > :41:24.she do? Anyway, first semi-final of the women's 100m freestyle, with

:41:24. > :41:30.Daniela Schreiber actually going Twywell down the first 50. The

:41:30. > :41:39.world-record holder is at the top. The German is not having a good

:41:39. > :41:45.meat at all. She is way behind. In lane six, Jessica Hardy of the USA.

:41:45. > :41:53.She is proving that best strikers can turn to freestyle. Big,

:41:53. > :42:03.straight arms, digging in deep, stretching ahead as far as she can.

:42:03. > :42:05.

:42:05. > :42:15.These women have got to go quick. The fourth fastest was 53.9, so it

:42:15. > :42:15.

:42:15. > :42:21.looks like a sub 54 to make the final. Melanie Schlanger brought

:42:21. > :42:28.their relay team home for gold. She is on form. But she will have to

:42:28. > :42:36.find a bit more, I think. This second semi-final has a few good

:42:36. > :42:45.swimmers in it. They all looked left to see who was coming in, then

:42:45. > :42:52.look at the clock to see the time. She won by 0.4 of a second, which

:42:52. > :43:02.is a long way in this race. It is a nice feeling to look to your left

:43:02. > :43:16.

:43:16. > :43:26.or right and see people still but the second semi-final really is

:43:26. > :43:27.

:43:27. > :43:33.stacked. I could argue for all eight of these women making the

:43:33. > :43:43.final. It is going to be really fast. You have got the two Dutch

:43:43. > :44:05.

:44:05. > :44:10.the heats. She did in the relay. But let's talk about the British

:44:10. > :44:15.Women. Amy Smith in lane one, and Fran Halsall. She got a silver

:44:15. > :44:22.medal at the World Championships in 2009, and was fourth at the worlds,

:44:22. > :44:32.but that merely won the race. Listen to this for Amy Smith, a

:44:32. > :44:33.

:44:33. > :44:43.massive ovation yet again. It sends shivers up my smile -- spine. It

:44:43. > :44:43.

:44:43. > :46:09.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 86 seconds

:46:09. > :46:19.She is really a 200m freestyle Chinese girl, Yi Tang. She has been

:46:19. > :46:28.

:46:28. > :46:32.improving every year. She has shown see what happens after that. A very

:46:32. > :46:38.deep dive in line number five the Jeanette Ottesen Gray. She has come

:46:38. > :46:48.up first from Denmark. A Mr Padraig decent start -- Amy Smith had a

:46:48. > :46:53.good start. In the 100m, it is important that if you have got

:46:53. > :47:03.speed, you use as much as you can without leaving much in the tank

:47:03. > :47:05.

:47:05. > :47:10.for the last 20 metres. Francesca Halsall girl is going well. She has

:47:10. > :47:15.a lot of work to do. This finish will be so important. Amy Smith

:47:15. > :47:25.just getting a bit behind at the top. Come on, Fran Halsall, get the

:47:25. > :47:27.

:47:27. > :47:37.touch. It was very close. She got 4th, equal with 53.77. That should

:47:37. > :47:43.

:47:43. > :47:50.be fine. I think she found that tough, though. A new Olympic record

:47:50. > :47:57.for Ranomi Kromowidjojo. I have seen from look more sparkly on her

:47:57. > :48:07.races. Maybe digging in more. -- I have seen Francesca Halsall look

:48:07. > :48:07.

:48:07. > :48:15.more sparky. She is really tough. Lovely, bubbly character, and she

:48:15. > :48:25.is in the final of the Olympic Games. So the fastest woman in the

:48:25. > :48:35.

:48:35. > :48:45.There she is, Ranomi Kromowidjojo. She will go in as the fastest

:48:45. > :48:56.

:48:56. > :49:03.Fran Halsall is very much capable of that. That was a tough race,

:49:03. > :49:07.maybe not a place in the final, but the 50 to come. Yes, I am

:49:07. > :49:12.disappointed with that, but I have got to take away the positives and

:49:12. > :49:20.put that into that safety will stop it will be great to watch Frant in

:49:20. > :49:30.the final. Our team is so tight, you all swim for each other. It is

:49:30. > :49:32.

:49:33. > :49:39.amazing because a while ago it would just be me, that's here are

:49:39. > :49:46.asked two command our size when everybody is 6 ft tall. It will

:49:46. > :49:51.take a 52 to win it. Definitely. I felt awful this morning. But I

:49:51. > :49:57.think I need to get it out of my system. Tonight I felt very smooth

:49:57. > :50:03.and easy, so anything can happen AA an Olympic final, so I'll be in

:50:03. > :50:06.there looking to win it. Everybody wants to get these medals and it is

:50:06. > :50:15.contagious and when somebody does that it helps you believe in

:50:15. > :50:20.yourself. Yes, it is, but they were amazing for a Missy Franklin as

:50:20. > :50:25.well, so tomorrow we want them to speak louder than ours. She is so

:50:25. > :50:31.cool in interviews, she has got bags of confidence. She is telling

:50:31. > :50:40.the crowd what to do. Stop cheering for everyone else. How she got a

:50:40. > :50:50.shot? Yes, definitely. Kromowidjojo is that Marjah head of everybody

:50:50. > :50:54.else. But if Fran has as when I see can, and she has got 24 hours' rest,

:50:54. > :51:02.it she pulls one out of the bag, she could make it, and she has done

:51:02. > :51:12.it before. This is a busy night for Ryan Lochte. This is the 200

:51:12. > :51:32.

:51:32. > :51:36.Ryan Lochte of the USA. He has already won two golds. Fascinating

:51:37. > :51:42.different styles of starting. Some of their heads are closer to the

:51:42. > :51:47.block and some our way back, but the best start was from Ryan Lochte.

:51:47. > :51:57.It will be interesting how he swims this, given that he has got another

:51:57. > :52:01.

:52:01. > :52:07.semi-final to come. Ryan Lochte is capable of it, he is a very fit guy.

:52:07. > :52:15.He is very laid back. He treats it like a local pool meat. That is the

:52:15. > :52:21.way to do it. For his said this morning, yeah, two semi-finals, it

:52:21. > :52:29.is going to be brittle. He is talking about the pain, not whether

:52:29. > :52:33.it will be pressurised. But he has trained for it very well indeed. At

:52:33. > :52:39.the top the European champion is very quick indeed and it was a very

:52:39. > :52:47.good turn. He may be took about half a metre off most of the rest

:52:47. > :52:56.of the field. Ryan Lochte has got some work to do. Yes, he is doing

:52:56. > :53:04.enough. He is aware. He can see what is going on. He will have a

:53:04. > :53:09.quick scan now. He does not need to look, he is going to do a big turn

:53:09. > :53:16.and come up in the lead. He is actually brilliance and now he is

:53:16. > :53:21.starting to go. He is defending champion on those 200m backstroke.

:53:21. > :53:31.He has done three lengths a reasonably comfortably. Also going

:53:31. > :53:35.

:53:35. > :53:40.with them is the Japanese. That was interesting. That was fascinating.

:53:40. > :53:49.He is two seconds outside his best time, so I think he has done enough,

:53:49. > :53:56.but he does not want to risk it. He knows he had to conserve energy.

:53:56. > :54:04.All the trainers say he trains like an animal. He is known for being

:54:04. > :54:07.able to cope with the pain. This is not hard for him. That one was not,

:54:07. > :54:13.but the next one will be very interesting because he is in the

:54:13. > :54:18.final of that tour hundred medley NT is against Michael Phelps. He

:54:18. > :54:22.has got the monkey off his back, the 19 medals, and now he is ready

:54:22. > :54:26.to go up. They are talking about Ryan

:54:26. > :54:36.Lochte's training and he has been pictured doing serious physical

:54:36. > :54:39.

:54:39. > :54:44.work. What is your take on that? He polls tyres around. Whatever

:54:44. > :54:48.tickles your fancy. But it is a good idea and if that is what you

:54:48. > :54:58.want to do in the gym, you have got to build up the muscle mass that

:54:58. > :54:59.

:54:59. > :55:03.By him it seems to be working. know you have a strong belief that

:55:03. > :55:08.the race is not over when you touch the wall, not even when you get out

:55:08. > :55:14.of the swimming pool. No, it is over when you walk off behind the

:55:14. > :55:18.set. So you get out of the water and confidently and the competitors

:55:18. > :55:22.know that. Then next time they race they know you got out of the

:55:22. > :55:28.swimming-pool easily. They do not see you collapse behind the stage.

:55:28. > :55:32.That is the impression you want to leave for your competitors. The way

:55:32. > :55:40.you carry yourself around the pool is important. When people come they

:55:40. > :55:47.are very cool and effect. That is why he used to walk around with no

:55:47. > :55:53.clothes on. He used to take his suit off when he gave an interview.

:55:53. > :55:59.It did not work, it was a little bit too late. Now it is the second

:55:59. > :56:05.semi-final. It is the fastest eight times. Not the first four from each

:56:05. > :56:15.semi-final. The file is tomorrow night. It is four lengths of the

:56:15. > :56:31.

:56:31. > :56:35.the 200 medley is tomorrow. I said it was tonight. This is Cleary. He

:56:35. > :56:45.is a really good backstroke swimmer. He did very well in the heats up

:56:45. > :56:49.

:56:49. > :56:59.this morning. He is sensing an opportunity to get on the podium.

:56:59. > :57:20.

:57:20. > :57:30.He is the world championship bronze We have got a Japanese in lane one,

:57:30. > :57:36.then two Hungarians. Then Tyler Clary in four. We have just seen a

:57:36. > :57:42.very interesting first semi-final working reasonably hard, but taking

:57:42. > :57:52.the Japanese with him. He knows what he has to do. The rest of them

:57:52. > :58:02.

:58:02. > :58:08.have to get a sub 1.57 to get to does he not cut off the string on

:58:08. > :58:18.his goggles, that always bothers me. A as long as it doesn't get in his

:58:18. > :58:19.

:58:19. > :58:24.way, it is fine. A reasonably even start. Maybe Tyler Clary of the USA

:58:24. > :58:34.having the best one in four. But the Hungarian in lane three with

:58:34. > :58:49.

:58:49. > :58:55.the bright pink suit is going well to go to the European Championships

:58:55. > :59:05.because it did not fit in with people's workouts. Tyler Clary

:59:05. > :59:07.

:59:07. > :59:13.having a good turn. He has gone very deep. It was a good turn, but

:59:13. > :59:23.he took a big old breath as soon as he came up. He is working

:59:23. > :59:27.

:59:27. > :59:31.reasonably hard and looking pretty good. He will be on the left when

:59:31. > :59:38.you go back and look at the overhead shot because the cameras

:59:38. > :59:44.are not working like we usually have them. Apologies, that is not

:59:44. > :59:50.our camera, but international television. I think he is trying to

:59:50. > :59:58.show Ryan Lochte he has got something. People believe that Ryan

:59:58. > :00:08.Lochte is a shoo-in for this. Tyler Clary said, no, he is not, I want

:00:08. > :00:08.

:00:08. > :00:18.this as well. Pumping the air, he uses that nose clip so he does not

:00:18. > :00:20.

:00:20. > :00:25.get water in his nose when he is under water. Lane six was

:00:25. > :00:30.completely out of the water. It is important to get out of the water.

:00:30. > :00:40.Great streamlining. The fastest part of the race under water,

:00:40. > :00:45.streamline, for every stroke. Tyler Clary easing back a bit. I think he

:00:45. > :00:50.realised it was a great time anti- stall has got something in him.

:00:50. > :00:57.That is an interesting reaction. He is actually delighted with that

:00:57. > :01:03.swim. We saw Ryan Lochte go reasonably easy. Tyler Clary has

:01:03. > :01:13.worked hard. He will qualify fastest for the final. Very

:01:13. > :01:14.

:01:14. > :01:24.We are fascinated by the strain on his goggles. We have got your

:01:24. > :01:27.

:01:27. > :01:32.goggles on the lion. When did lions become extinct in the UK? If you

:01:32. > :01:36.shave and take the trouble to shave your body because of how it goes

:01:36. > :01:46.through the water, why would you have a piece of string dangling

:01:46. > :01:48.

:01:48. > :01:53.down your nose? I think it is the cool thing at the moment. Anyway,

:01:53. > :02:03.it did not seem to stop him. We have had as silver-medal in the

:02:03. > :02:17.

:02:17. > :02:21.swimming pool, but back in the Helen Glover and Heather Stanning

:02:21. > :02:26.have joined us. Have you any idea how you have lifted the mood of the

:02:26. > :02:32.nation? In the papers, it kept saying, still no gold. You were the

:02:32. > :02:36.first to have done it. Maybe there will be another gold since we have

:02:36. > :02:40.won ours. It is exciting. It is a good bit of payback, because we had

:02:40. > :02:45.amazing support. At Dorney Lake, the crowds were brilliant. Everyone

:02:45. > :02:49.we passed on the streets has been so good. And it is our Olympics, so

:02:49. > :02:54.it is great. Can you attempt to describe the emotions you went

:02:54. > :02:58.through? I don't think I can. It is the most phenomenal feeling. We

:02:58. > :03:05.were both exhausted after the race, but couldn't stand still, just

:03:05. > :03:12.wanted to jump around. The crowds have been fantastic. There are

:03:12. > :03:22.those shots. You seem to be talking to each other. Who was saying what?

:03:22. > :03:25.I definitely said, I can't believe it, we did it! I knew not only got

:03:25. > :03:29.the first gold medal for Great Britain, but you are also the first

:03:29. > :03:37.female British rowers ever to win a gold medal. You must be so proud of

:03:37. > :03:41.yourselves. It is definitely still sinking in. We have had some

:03:41. > :03:44.brilliant trail blazers in terms of women's rowing. We have brilliant

:03:44. > :03:47.women on our team and to be the first women to do it, fingers

:03:48. > :03:53.crossed it will be the first of many. I am sure there will be more

:03:53. > :03:58.to come this Olympics. And once again, a soldier comes to the

:03:58. > :04:02.rescue of the Olympics, Heather. A brilliant effort from you. We go

:04:02. > :04:07.back now to being a soldier again, with the possibility of going to

:04:07. > :04:11.Afghanistan? The plan was always to go back to work in September. And

:04:11. > :04:18.that is still the plan. I am proud to be associated with the military,

:04:18. > :04:22.and they have done a fantastic job with these games. You have had at

:04:22. > :04:31.tweets from all sorts of athletes everywhere, messages of support and

:04:32. > :04:40.congratulations. It must be great that you have given everyone a lift.

:04:40. > :04:44.Laura Robson says, first gold medal for GB! We are so attached. We are

:04:44. > :04:48.kind of blown away by it. We just went to do what we do. We have

:04:48. > :04:52.worked hard for this, but so have a lot of other people in our team.

:04:52. > :04:56.Our coach, parents and families have supported us the whole way.

:04:56. > :05:02.The fact that everyone has responded like this is so touching.

:05:02. > :05:07.Thank you. Helen, your story was remarkable. Four years ago, you had

:05:07. > :05:12.never sat in a boat. No. I watched the Beijing Olympics on TV you and

:05:12. > :05:19.I had been rowing for about two months. I picked it up because my

:05:19. > :05:23.mum saw an article that said Sir Steve Redgrave was trawling through

:05:23. > :05:29.rowers. You had to be tall and athletic, and I thought it sounded

:05:29. > :05:35.like me. Such an inspiring story. You are certainly a sporting giant

:05:35. > :05:39.now. What are your family saying? Had he managed to spend any time

:05:39. > :05:44.with them? Had briefly. Both our families were down at the course

:05:44. > :05:48.and we had a few minutes with them, but they are over the moon for us.

:05:48. > :05:53.Our families have been our biggest supporters from the word go. They

:05:53. > :05:59.are enjoying it as much as we are. They are out tonight together.

:05:59. > :06:05.you meet up with them later? hope to. They might have burnt

:06:05. > :06:09.themselves out by then. You do know you will be going down in history

:06:09. > :06:13.for the first gold medal at the London 2012 Olympic Games? It is

:06:13. > :06:21.still sinking in. It is crazy. will be the answer to a pub quiz

:06:21. > :06:25.question for the rest of your lives. What about the rest of the team? It

:06:25. > :06:30.is such a strong team. What about Katherine Grainger? We are so

:06:30. > :06:37.excited for them. We have loved being part of the GB rowing team.

:06:37. > :06:41.The athletes have trained so if -- so hard. All the noise from the

:06:41. > :06:46.crowds, they will get to do that over the next three days and they

:06:46. > :06:53.will do brilliantly. Helen, I read that you were the bossy One in the

:06:53. > :06:57.boat. And I get that sense now. Is she the leader? For I would not so

:06:57. > :07:02.the leader. She is definitely the more vocal of the two of us. They

:07:03. > :07:07.as she tried you on? Definitely. I was not allowed to sit back once in

:07:07. > :07:11.that race. I tell her what to do. That is the drive you need if you

:07:11. > :07:17.have only been doing it for four years. But you are the experienced

:07:17. > :07:21.one, so your experience must help. Only by a couple of years, but I

:07:21. > :07:27.don't know what I bring. Helen is fantastic at what she does in the

:07:27. > :07:30.bow seat. She is such a great athlete. For any sport, for someone

:07:30. > :07:36.to come in within such a short time and do what she has done is

:07:36. > :07:40.fantastic. For people, young girls or even people in their early

:07:40. > :07:47.twenties, they should give it a go. Helen has shown it is not

:07:47. > :07:55.impossible. It Heather goes back to the army, what will you do? I will

:07:55. > :08:01.have to keep rolling. I am voting for her to keep rowing. I have

:08:01. > :08:06.something for you, the gold medal winners at the Olympic Games for

:08:06. > :08:13.Great Britain are going to get a special stamp from the Royal Mile.

:08:13. > :08:18.That is amazing! My grandad would love that. He collects them. I will

:08:18. > :08:22.give it to you. Thank you so much. Be it has been a delight to have

:08:22. > :08:28.you in the studio. On behalf of the whole of Great Britain, many

:08:28. > :08:32.congratulations. You have done us all proud. Then we won another gold,

:08:32. > :08:38.and it has started things. The momentum is running.

:08:38. > :08:43.We will go back to Clare, Mark and Ian.

:08:43. > :08:47.In the intervening period, while we were talking to our new Olympic

:08:47. > :08:52.champions, we have an Olympic silver medallists here. Michael

:08:52. > :08:56.Jamieson, 23, sets a new British record, beaten only by a world

:08:56. > :09:06.record from Daniel Gyurta of Hungary. This was the moment the

:09:06. > :09:14.silver medal was placed around his neck. He swam the race of his life

:09:14. > :09:19.at the moment he needed to most. It is a terrific achievement. And I

:09:19. > :09:22.think today, after seeing the girls do so well, bringing home at the

:09:22. > :09:32.first Olympic gold medal for Team GB, it really has spurred on this

:09:32. > :09:36.team. He got very close to winning it. Gyurta won the last two world

:09:36. > :09:41.championships. He always delivers at the right time, and he did do

:09:41. > :09:47.that again, unfortunately. But it was an amazing final. The crowd

:09:47. > :09:54.were phenomenal. And as Jamieson was coming back at Gyurta on that

:09:54. > :10:04.last length, the crowd were lifting him. Gyurta did extremely well to

:10:04. > :10:13.hang on. The gold goes to Gyurta in a new world record. Now, the

:10:13. > :10:23.national anthem of Hungary. Therein lies because of flowers all the

:10:23. > :10:31.

:10:31. > :10:41.medallists get as well. -- very Ladies and gentlemen, the national

:10:41. > :10:41.

:10:41. > :12:23.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 86 seconds

:12:23. > :12:28.anthem of Hungary. Congratulations to Hungary and to

:12:28. > :12:32.Daniel Gyurta, and he gives Michael Jamieson a very warm hand slap

:12:32. > :12:36.there. That all took place a few moments ago. Those swimmers are now

:12:36. > :12:41.making their way around the pool and heading out. We have another

:12:41. > :12:49.final coming up, the women's 200m butterfly, which is incredibly

:12:50. > :12:54.close. It features Jemma Lowe. Jamieson there, showing off his

:12:54. > :12:59.silver medal. A terrific swim from him. We had a brief conversation

:12:59. > :13:02.about how he had mentally prepared for this, and he said he had spent

:13:02. > :13:07.years just thinking of this moment. I suppose sometimes you can

:13:07. > :13:12.overthink it, but he got it spot on. You prepare yourself for what it

:13:12. > :13:17.will sound like, how the water will feel. Is the competitor here, is

:13:17. > :13:21.the compared to there? You start to practise, and when training at high

:13:21. > :13:25.speed, you feel as if you are in a race. This is how you mentally

:13:25. > :13:29.prepare, so that it becomes familiar when you come to rest day.

:13:30. > :13:34.Looking ahead at the final for the women's 200m butterfly, do you give

:13:34. > :13:39.Jemma Lowe a shot? In terms of qualification, she was the slowest

:13:39. > :13:44.one in, but she said that was deliberate. The field is open in a

:13:44. > :13:51.sense. When she did her interview, she was not putting a lot. I am not

:13:51. > :13:55.saying she has saved a lot, I was puffing after 50m. But she has been

:13:55. > :14:00.there and done it. She just has to pull it out at this evening. The

:14:00. > :14:05.team alongside her will be shouting her on. She just has to do her own

:14:05. > :14:14.race. There will be a fight in the middle. She could come away with a

:14:14. > :14:17.medal. Jemma Lowe is 22 years old. She is trained in Swansea, and her

:14:18. > :14:20.coach said he did not want her in the middle lane for this. So it is

:14:21. > :14:26.difficult to make sure you are fast enough to get in, but slow enough

:14:26. > :14:31.to be in the outside lane. We will see how it pans out. She said, I

:14:31. > :14:36.will give it everything and see what it brings. She will be roared

:14:36. > :14:46.home. She planned to swim the 100 and 200m butterfly, but from Hansel

:14:46. > :14:49.

:14:49. > :14:54.qualified ahead of her. So this is has got a super player. If she

:14:54. > :15:00.actually tried to achieve that, that is outstanding. It is risky as

:15:00. > :15:09.heck. In her interview, she did say she has more in her, and she was

:15:09. > :15:13.very composed. Dodgy tactics, but it paid off. So she is worth

:15:13. > :15:17.watching in lane eight. We have just seen a medal that Japan from

:15:17. > :15:22.lane 1, so there is no reason why we can't get another one. Wouldn't

:15:22. > :15:26.that be something special? She is certainly capable of it. She looks

:15:26. > :15:36.like someone who can cope with the pressure as well. She is kind of

:15:36. > :15:52.

:15:52. > :15:59.matter-of-fact, like Jamieson. I in Texas. She has a super

:15:59. > :16:09.experienced coach. The fastest qualifier. This is interesting. In

:16:09. > :16:11.

:16:11. > :16:20.lanes are fired and seven Jiao Liuyang. In seven the defending

:16:20. > :16:30.Olympic champion. Beware of the Chinese. We have got the 21 year-

:16:30. > :16:33.

:16:33. > :16:41.old Spanish girl in between them. Mireia Garcia is very diverse. This

:16:41. > :16:49.is Zige Liu. They dominated the 200 fly in Beijing. But I think the

:16:49. > :16:57.rest of them can attack them. Listen to this. Pumping the air.

:16:57. > :17:03.Come on, Jemma Lowe. Great support and lots of Union Jacks. Doesn't

:17:03. > :17:09.she look calm? Yes, very calm. If her interview was anything to go by,

:17:09. > :17:14.she wanted an outside lane. She got one and she is into the final of

:17:14. > :17:21.the Olympics. Kathleen Hersey is going to be four lanes away from

:17:21. > :17:30.her. This is the time to deliver with every ounce of energy she has

:17:30. > :17:36.got. Those are great cockles. Orange accentuates the light. She

:17:36. > :17:46.wants to get light stimulation, and orange goggles are very good colour.

:17:46. > :17:49.

:17:49. > :17:54.Jemma Lowe at the bottom for Great Britain. Training in Swansea. The

:17:54. > :17:58.Olympic final of the women's 200m butterfly. Jemma Lowe got the best

:17:58. > :18:06.start and we have not said that so far at the Olympic Games for a

:18:06. > :18:10.British swimmer. It is a good lane for her, she is next to the world

:18:10. > :18:16.record holder from China. The Chinese will be going for gold in

:18:16. > :18:24.this race. That is where she needs to be. Kathleen Hersey is the

:18:24. > :18:34.fastest qualifier in lane four. A good place to be. Kathleen Hersey

:18:34. > :18:38.is coming through now. This is going to be interesting because

:18:38. > :18:48.Jemma Lowe will not be able to see past Zige Liu of China, the

:18:48. > :18:49.

:18:49. > :18:57.defending champion. She is not going to see pastor, so she will

:18:57. > :19:01.think the race is right there. That was a very good turn. La Collette

:19:01. > :19:05.Mireia Garcia, the Spanish girl in lane six or Stopsley is coming

:19:05. > :19:15.through very strongly for a start Kathleen Hersey is now starting to

:19:15. > :19:17.

:19:17. > :19:27.show, but Zige Liu is struggling. The Spanish girl Mireia Garcia is

:19:27. > :19:27.

:19:27. > :19:33.surprisingly. She can sneak this one. Jemma Lowe was turning in six.

:19:33. > :19:43.She has got some work to do. But the rest of the field is coming

:19:43. > :19:45.

:19:45. > :19:55.back strong. She is possibly in bronze position. China and Spain

:19:55. > :19:58.

:19:58. > :20:05.are leading at the moment, but Jemma Lowe has got a chance. Spain

:20:05. > :20:15.get a surprising solver. The bronze has gone to Japan. Jemma Lowe just

:20:15. > :20:20.

:20:20. > :20:28.faded at the end. She really went for it. A new Olympic record for

:20:28. > :20:38.the champion from China. That is Zige Liu, the world record-holder,

:20:38. > :20:40.

:20:40. > :20:50.and she faded. But Jiao Liuyang converts to gold. That is the

:20:50. > :20:59.

:20:59. > :21:05.Spaniard, Mireia Garcia. tactics, I suppose why not?

:21:05. > :21:09.deserves that silver. And nice conversion. Has been around but

:21:09. > :21:15.quite a while on the international scene even though she is only 20

:21:15. > :21:25.years of age. Very happy that she has gone from silver in Beijing to

:21:25. > :21:28.

:21:28. > :21:36.the gold here. We expected it to be Chinese, but maybe not this one. A

:21:36. > :21:43.really big surprise was the silver going to Spain. Jemma Lowe swam

:21:43. > :21:49.well and committed really well, but she finished 6th in the end. You

:21:49. > :21:56.gave it everything you have. Yes, I did. It is an Olympic final and I

:21:56. > :22:03.was happy to get into it last night. I get everything I had, but it was

:22:03. > :22:08.not my database. Maybe you were aware from the mix a little bit?

:22:08. > :22:13.The crowd were fantastic and I was a bit nervous coming out, but I

:22:13. > :22:22.have had a good time in my second Olympics will stop they have been

:22:22. > :22:26.brilliant. It is not to be your last? Yes, definitely. I feel like

:22:26. > :22:35.I'm still young and I am looking forward to having more races in the

:22:35. > :22:40.There is so much energy coming from the British camp and all of them

:22:40. > :22:45.are desperate to improve on whatever they have done. Even

:22:45. > :22:54.Jamieson what the silver Medal wants to improve on that will start

:22:54. > :22:59.we have got a very interesting men's 100m freestyle. Already out

:22:59. > :23:05.his Yannick Agnel, already a winner of two gold medals. James Magnusson

:23:05. > :23:13.is coming out and he is the fastest qualifier for theirs. Australia are

:23:13. > :23:18.having a shocker. They think you have put it nicely. I have put it

:23:18. > :23:22.more nicely than the Australian press. We expect it to do a lot

:23:22. > :23:29.better than we have been at this stage. James Magnusson is one of

:23:29. > :23:36.those swimmers we expected to see swim a lot faster than he has done.

:23:36. > :23:40.In the 4 x 100 relaid Australia were expected to win. This has been

:23:40. > :23:45.a huge challenge for him, because he has to recover from a

:23:45. > :23:52.disappointing performance and get himself back up tonight. Coming

:23:52. > :23:59.into this competition so much was expected of him. He has talked the

:23:59. > :24:05.talk, so he has to walk the walk this evening. Will he? He better.

:24:05. > :24:10.That is the word from Ian Thorpe, the greatest Australian swimmer. He

:24:10. > :24:20.says to James Magnusson, now is your time. Would you making your

:24:20. > :24:21.

:24:21. > :24:26.favourite? I have to say yes. But it should be a much better time

:24:26. > :24:32.than 47.6. You would not put your house on him? I would not put my

:24:32. > :24:42.house on him. I would have before this competition, and that is what

:24:42. > :24:48.

:24:48. > :24:56.world record holder. There is Magnusson. In lane one is Yannick

:24:56. > :25:06.Agnel. That was Nathan Adrian. I am concerned that lane one and lane

:25:06. > :25:06.

:25:06. > :25:13.two are going to go absolutely nuts. On the fall by 100 relay Yannick

:25:13. > :25:23.Agnel split the fastest split by miles. Magnusson is in lane four

:25:23. > :25:24.

:25:24. > :25:34.Forestry year. -- for Australia. A very good start in a number two.

:25:34. > :25:46.

:25:46. > :25:52.That is the world record holder, Cesar Cielo. Experience counts and

:25:52. > :25:57.Cesar Cielo is in the lead. Also Nathan Adrian. A Nathan Adrian is

:25:57. > :26:07.absolutely throwing himself at it, but James Magnusson is hauling him

:26:07. > :26:08.

:26:08. > :26:15.in. Nathan Adrian is still going with him. Nathan Adrian has won it

:26:15. > :26:22.by one one-hundredth of a second. He led off the relay in a brilliant

:26:22. > :26:29.swimmer. Look at that. That last 25 he came back and back and he has

:26:29. > :26:35.won the gold. That was fascinating to watch. Those last 10m were

:26:35. > :26:41.riveting. I thought James Magners and have come through. The words of

:26:41. > :26:50.Ian Thorpe were in my ears. You better when it. Adrian must have

:26:50. > :26:55.been in so much pain that he sat down. Magnusson is thinking about

:26:55. > :27:05.what his career stands for now. He was talking about being the fastest

:27:05. > :27:06.

:27:06. > :27:16.in the world, missile Magnusson. But Nathan Adrian was strong here.

:27:16. > :27:18.

:27:18. > :27:28.You can see it's just about. You cannot call it. You cannot see 100

:27:28. > :27:37.with an naked eye. He fought so hard and he could smell it with

:27:37. > :27:44.about 15 to go. Magnusson overhauled him. He was a bit ahead

:27:44. > :27:52.and then he dug in so it's half. Soaked up. There he is, Olympic

:27:52. > :28:00.champion, Nathan Adrien of the USA. What a brilliant swim. Well done,

:28:00. > :28:08.that was fantastic. You just had a rocket. Yes, I know, this comes

:28:08. > :28:12.every four years. How do you get to celebrate on this? Get ready for

:28:12. > :28:18.the 400 medley relay. They have put a pretty great team together and

:28:18. > :28:26.I'm excited to see what we can do. You trials were really late, which

:28:26. > :28:31.works for sprinters, but not for a distance people. Yes, it does. With

:28:31. > :28:41.a little more rest I got a little bit faster, so it is a tougher

:28:41. > :28:41.

:28:41. > :28:46.He won by the minimum distance. Top us through the finish and the

:28:46. > :28:52.technique of finishing. It is a very similar finish from birth

:28:52. > :28:58.swimmers. There is no difference in terms of technique. It is better

:28:58. > :29:05.from the underneath shot. But both finished with her hands going up.

:29:05. > :29:11.You finish with your fingers and you finish with your body it.

:29:11. > :29:20.gives you more for us. Let that fingers rolled into your hand up

:29:20. > :29:26.rather than going up. Rather than finishing like that, you have to

:29:26. > :29:31.finish a bit further forward. That could have been the difference.

:29:31. > :29:37.if you break a finger, you have won a gold models -- medals are it does

:29:37. > :29:41.not matter. You flag that up beforehand. Mackeson is short on

:29:41. > :29:47.confidence and that helps other swimmers take him on. Still how

:29:47. > :29:52.much of a shock is that? It is shocking, but it is not as shocking

:29:52. > :29:57.as it would have been if you had told me this result two weeks ago.

:29:57. > :30:03.The up full credit to Nathan Adrian because that is his first major

:30:03. > :30:13.individual title. He has never won anything at the World Championships,

:30:13. > :30:16.

:30:16. > :30:20.and you could see how thrilled and shops he was about it. The other

:30:20. > :30:25.thing is Adrian did everything right. You want to come to the

:30:25. > :30:35.Olympic Games and do your best time. Terms Magnusson did not do his best

:30:35. > :30:49.

:30:49. > :30:55.in lane five. Rebecca Soni is the defending Olympic champion. She

:30:55. > :31:02.goes in the second semi-final. The European short-course champion,

:31:02. > :31:06.Rick Pedersen of Denmark, looked very good in the semi-final.

:31:06. > :31:12.Beautiful stroke from Micah Lawrence of the USA in lane five.

:31:12. > :31:22.All soap came out high out of the water, which is important, to use

:31:22. > :31:23.

:31:23. > :31:31.their hips. Use the momentum. If you get high, you can push yourself

:31:31. > :31:41.forward, arch your back. I am interested to see what happens,

:31:41. > :31:44.

:31:44. > :31:50.whether they go really quickly. Paul the arms in, arch your back a

:31:50. > :31:57.bit, flex your hips. I saw people in the warm-up this morning with a

:31:57. > :32:06.pair of flippers on, just using the dolphin kick in the warm-up to arch

:32:07. > :32:15.the back, get used to flicking your legs. Micah Lawrence leading by a

:32:15. > :32:25.good distance. Could turn from Rikke Pedersen of Denmark. It is

:32:25. > :32:26.

:32:26. > :32:33.Lawrence leading for the USA. Second is Pedersen. Going well is

:32:33. > :32:43.the Swedish swimmer in the yellow hat. I am surprised that Iuliia

:32:43. > :32:51.Efimova was only in lane one. had an interesting heat. She went

:32:51. > :32:55.very slowly. She has improved on her first 100. She has got quality,

:32:55. > :33:00.in the pink hat at the top of the picture. I think we will see her

:33:00. > :33:08.qualified to make the final. I am not surprised that Pedersen has

:33:08. > :33:12.come back on Lawrence. Pedersen is very strong in the last 50.

:33:12. > :33:22.first semi-final of the women's 200m breaststroke will be won by

:33:22. > :33:23.

:33:23. > :33:31.Rikke Pedersen of Denmark. Interesting tactics. UDF the nova

:33:31. > :33:37.keeps going out very slowly -- Iuliia Efimova keeps going out very

:33:37. > :33:47.slowly. She needs to get out a bit quicker. But she is playing with

:33:47. > :33:50.

:33:50. > :34:00.tactics. She could be a surprise for the final. She was only 7th on

:34:00. > :34:11.

:34:11. > :34:21.a hundred, so I wonder if she has got the stamina. She has got a best

:34:21. > :35:01.

:35:01. > :35:07.class of this second semi-final, world champion, Olympic record

:35:07. > :35:17.holder. But only got a silver on the 100. That was a brilliant

:35:17. > :35:33.

:35:33. > :35:38.swimmer for the and 15-year-old and collected in the press

:35:38. > :35:42.conference that the Americans had. I was very impressed. But she did

:35:42. > :35:52.not quite do the job on the 100, not fast enough. She said she had

:35:52. > :35:55.trained mainly for the 200, and taught about not being able to

:35:55. > :36:01.control a reel out liar. A 15-year- old can come in and blow you away.

:36:01. > :36:06.She could not have counted on that. But she did say the 200 is her big

:36:06. > :36:10.event. The interesting thing for me was that the time was slower than I

:36:10. > :36:14.expected. If you don't swim quite as quick, somebody can nip in and

:36:14. > :36:20.beat you, and that is what happened. She needed a best time, and

:36:20. > :36:30.couldn't deliver it, which made her realise that maybe the 200 is the

:36:30. > :36:58.

:36:58. > :37:02.event for her. I would not bet and get out quickly on this one.

:37:02. > :37:12.The world record is held by a Canadian who never really delivered,

:37:12. > :37:22.

:37:22. > :37:27.women's 200m breaststroke, and interestingly, none of the women in

:37:27. > :37:32.this semi-final set a lifetime best to qualify. Which is unusual. You

:37:32. > :37:39.normally have two or three personal best times to qualify. So most of

:37:39. > :37:49.this field are capable of more. Rebecca Soni slow off the block,

:37:49. > :37:59.but now she is coming through. Suzuki has a big gold glide. She

:37:59. > :38:03.

:38:03. > :38:10.builds her pace up. But then she will droplet. A bit like rowing,

:38:10. > :38:18.strode grades. Looks like Rebecca Soni is going for it. She worked

:38:18. > :38:28.that last 25 metres pretty hard. Liping Ji of China is starting to

:38:28. > :38:32.

:38:32. > :38:36.come through in lane six. First to turn the halfway mark, Rebecca Soni.

:38:36. > :38:46.That is really quick. It is not a world record time. That was said

:38:46. > :38:52.

:38:52. > :39:02.when they were allowed to wear suits, which has since been banned.

:39:02. > :39:03.

:39:03. > :39:08.The South African is going very well. She made the finals in 2005,

:39:08. > :39:14.and is now coming back from that. She was an outstanding talent, went

:39:14. > :39:18.quiet for a bit, and is coming back. Rebecca Soni is reasserting herself.

:39:18. > :39:25.Right on world record. She has picked that up. She could get the

:39:25. > :39:35.world record. It is currently held by Anna Mae peers of Canada. The

:39:35. > :39:39.

:39:40. > :39:44.time is 21.2. -- two minutes, 21.2. Ro! She did not go under two

:39:44. > :39:48.minutes 20, but she has broken the world record. What a great swim,

:39:48. > :39:53.and a fascinating way to do it as well. Really comfortable down the

:39:53. > :39:58.first 50, worked really hard during the second half of the race. Very

:39:58. > :40:08.impressive. Fantastic. I thought she would go for it tonight. She

:40:08. > :40:14.talked about being ready for the 200, not the 100. She has a very

:40:14. > :40:21.strong last 100m. Very wide arms. Look how wide her elbows off. You

:40:21. > :40:27.might think she was doing the butterfly. She has a great arm ball.

:40:27. > :40:36.She is going to go into the final way ahead of the rest. Two seconds

:40:36. > :40:42.ahead, world record-holder. It is hers to lose now. Great swim. A bit

:40:42. > :40:52.of emotion there in the end. The semi-finals is the time to break a

:40:52. > :41:01.

:41:02. > :41:08.record. You have swum in the Impressive pace and tactics as well

:41:08. > :41:18.as the time. She will certainly be fastest into the final, no doubt

:41:18. > :41:20.

:41:20. > :41:27.Well done, Rebecca. The crowd love you. A oh, my gosh, I couldn't

:41:27. > :41:33.believe it. He said this morning you were in great shape and had

:41:33. > :41:41.been working for the 200. Definitely. This time, I worked for

:41:41. > :41:49.the last 50. Will you be the first lady in history to go under 20?

:41:49. > :41:54.almost got it! So hopefully, but in a way, I am ecstatic. Well done.

:41:54. > :41:59.What a night in the pool. We have seen a minimum distance win beaten

:41:59. > :42:02.by Nathan Adrian. We have seen a silver for Great Britain and a

:42:02. > :42:09.world record. Going back to James Maya Pedersen, what would your

:42:09. > :42:14.advice be to him now, having come here as the big hope? He will be

:42:14. > :42:18.absolutely shattered at this stage. It is not at the time for him to

:42:18. > :42:23.have a break. He needs to get back into training. It is not that he

:42:23. > :42:28.has not been training well in the lead-up to this, but he needs to go

:42:28. > :42:33.out there and compete and have a great result. I brought that up

:42:33. > :42:43.again because in wanted to make about point. Listen to the roar for

:42:43. > :42:46.

:42:46. > :42:49.three of this first semi-final for the men's 200m individual medley.

:42:49. > :42:55.He is such a talented swimmer, but no doubt the strength he is up

:42:55. > :42:59.against, because next day Henin Lane four is Ryan Lochte, and next

:42:59. > :43:03.to locks to his Michael Phelps. This is some race. He comes fops,

:43:03. > :43:08.with his big headphones on. He wants to block out the noise of the

:43:08. > :43:14.crowd. He yesterday made history, taking his medal total to a new

:43:14. > :43:18.record of Olympic total medals, and beating Larisa Latynina, the

:43:18. > :43:22.gymnast, taking it to 19 total medals, 15 of them gold. He did

:43:22. > :43:26.that in the relay. James Goddard has huge talent, but he has

:43:26. > :43:33.sometimes struggled with his work ethic. And he admitted as much,

:43:33. > :43:37.saying, I have tried to become more consistent in training. A few years

:43:37. > :43:43.ago, he used to train with a group of guys in Stockport, and they all

:43:43. > :43:45.gave up and I think he lost his motivation. In Athens in 2004, he

:43:45. > :43:50.came fourth and was devastated. He thought this was his best

:43:50. > :43:55.opportunity. He knows Lochte and Phelps will probably come one and

:43:55. > :44:02.two, but third is up for grabs. He has put all his eggs in his basket.

:44:02. > :44:06.Unlike the other swimmers wearing red caps, James is in blue.

:44:06. > :44:16.I think the reason he is wearing a blue cap is because apparently, the

:44:16. > :44:18.

:44:18. > :44:22.red ones don't fit very well. He is in lame number three, James Goddard.

:44:22. > :44:28.So the first semi-final of the men's 200 medley. James Goddard of

:44:28. > :44:34.Great Britain goes in lane three, next to Ryan Lochte ear for USA N

:44:34. > :44:39.Lane four and the great Michael Phelps, in lane five. If you had a

:44:39. > :44:45.ticket for tonight's session, this would be worth the price. You have

:44:45. > :44:52.Ryan Lochte, and Michael Phelps with the Brits. Ryan Lochte will do

:44:52. > :44:58.just enough here to get a top eight time. I think Lochte will have to

:44:58. > :45:02.break a world record to beat Phelps tomorrow night. Phelps stuck his

:45:02. > :45:12.head away up after the turned to look at his time. The wit of the

:45:12. > :45:12.

:45:12. > :45:19.world is off Phelps' shoulders. But I think he really felt it, that 19

:45:19. > :45:24.target. He has got it now. Goddard is right with them. Just

:45:24. > :45:34.behind the two Americans. But they got better terms than him. About

:45:34. > :45:56.

:45:56. > :46:06.this. -- look at this. Goddard has Michael Phelps having a really be

:46:06. > :46:14.look at Ryan Lochte. I think Michael Phelps is trying to go with

:46:14. > :46:18.them. Actually, he is just staying relatively comfortable. James

:46:18. > :46:28.Goddard is going well and I would like to see him get a touch for

:46:28. > :46:32.third. Excellent. That is an important touch. That means five

:46:32. > :46:37.people from the second semi-final can beat him and he is still

:46:37. > :46:43.through. He is shaking his head slightly. I think he was looking

:46:43. > :46:50.for a faster time. James, you are in the final, tomorrow is another

:46:50. > :46:57.day. I am in awe of Ryan Lochte. He is one of the best swimmers we are

:46:57. > :47:01.watching him at the moment. This generation is fantastic. I think

:47:01. > :47:07.the final might go the same way. I'm not sure what Michael Phelps

:47:07. > :47:15.can do about that. Ryan Lochte is better at breaststroke than Michael

:47:15. > :47:20.Phelps. But Michael Phelps beat him at the trials. There is nothing

:47:20. > :47:27.else Michael Phelps can do but adopt the same tactics. He did not

:47:27. > :47:32.raise the last 15 on three-star, he did not use all his energy. Ryan

:47:32. > :47:42.Lochte is on form and on fire. I cannot bet against him not winning

:47:42. > :47:42.

:47:42. > :47:48.this one. He might need to get the world record to do it. He is the

:47:48. > :47:58.world record holder, Ryan Lochte. A great swim from James Goddard and

:47:58. > :47:58.

:47:58. > :48:04.that will put him through to the final I am sure. No spitting on the

:48:04. > :48:12.floor! You have but a position in the final tomorrow. It should get

:48:12. > :48:16.in. It was a fascinating semi-final as well. I am satisfied I suppose.

:48:16. > :48:22.Tomorrow if you came third behind those boys, would you take that?

:48:22. > :48:28.would take that. There is the Japanese lad and I need to go a lot

:48:28. > :48:35.quicker than that. We saw you shaking your head at the end, I

:48:35. > :48:41.presume that was about the time? Now, I was satisfied to be in the

:48:41. > :48:46.top three. You have changed your work ethic fairly recently. What

:48:46. > :48:51.have you done? I have worked on my freestyle quite a lot because it is

:48:51. > :48:55.the weakest part of mine met little stock I'm not swimming as fast as I

:48:55. > :49:01.would like at the minute. I have to sit down with my coach and look and

:49:01. > :49:11.see what I can do to beat faster. I knew going to be here tomorrow? You

:49:11. > :49:20.

:49:20. > :49:26.Boys, sorry, looking at James he has got no careful start he grows

:49:26. > :49:30.hair really quickly. The best thing I sort is that he finished the race

:49:30. > :49:36.and he was disappointed with that time, that is a good sign up for

:49:36. > :49:42.tomorrow night. But it will be hard to win a medal because we have also

:49:42. > :49:47.bought Thiago Pereira of Brazil. is a bit more as a sprinter and

:49:47. > :49:54.that is him coming out now. He could challenge for the silver. I

:49:54. > :50:00.cannot see anybody getting near Ryan Lochte. James Goddard has done

:50:00. > :50:09.his race now, but this second heat is the stronger heat. He is on a

:50:09. > :50:16.knife-edge at the moment. That was Laszlo Cseh with the nose clip.

:50:16. > :50:26.not so cool. I had to because I was allergic to chlorine. Chad Le Clos

:50:26. > :50:32.

:50:32. > :50:39.is also in the semi-final and also champion on the 200m butterfly and

:50:39. > :50:48.he did that by beating the great Michael Phelps. Joe Roebuck getting

:50:48. > :50:56.a massive ovation. He is a lovely guy. I spent a day at Loughborough

:50:56. > :51:06.University and he was charming. The second semi-final of the men's 200

:51:06. > :51:11.

:51:11. > :51:19.medley. If they can go below 1.58, they will make the final. Laszlo

:51:19. > :51:29.Cseh in four. Thiago Pereira got the silver in the 400. But Laszlo

:51:29. > :51:56.

:51:56. > :52:01.has got the strength on the butterfly. What has happened to

:52:01. > :52:11.Kosuke Kitajima? He has got a good backstroke, so expect him to come

:52:11. > :52:13.

:52:13. > :52:17.back pretty quickly. Laszlo Cseh has not had a good time. Joe

:52:17. > :52:23.Roebuck is at the bottom of the shot and he is going OK at the

:52:23. > :52:31.moment, but he needs to pick it up and work is breaststroke. I think

:52:32. > :52:41.he is off the pace. We are looking for the final spots in the middle.

:52:42. > :52:46.

:52:46. > :52:53.There are some good breaststroke swimmers free and -- here. Joe

:52:53. > :53:03.robe's breaststroke is not bad. I think he will struggle. He is in

:53:03. > :53:09.

:53:09. > :53:19.the bottom left of the shot. first two our way out in front. But

:53:19. > :53:21.

:53:21. > :53:31.the others are lining up. Finally we are seeing a decent swim out of

:53:31. > :53:34.

:53:34. > :53:44.Laszlo Cseh from Hungary, but it is a little bit late. That was very

:53:44. > :53:49.

:53:49. > :53:59.close indeed. I think James Goddard was third with one. Orate 0.9. I

:53:59. > :54:11.

:54:11. > :54:21.are equal, so they are both in the final. Just to be clear they are

:54:21. > :54:22.

:54:22. > :54:32.equal 7th. Laszlo Cseh having a decent swim, but this is a semi, a

:54:32. > :55:06.

:55:06. > :55:13.reminder. I think Kosuke Kitajima and James Goddard will be on the

:55:13. > :55:20.outside. So will Chad Le Clos. is going to be a good one. I think

:55:40. > :55:46.better swim this morning bulls star I have got to be happy with that, I

:55:46. > :55:55.gave everything I had got. It is the first time I have got through

:55:55. > :56:02.to that final. It does not always work out, so you have to go and

:56:02. > :56:07.regroup. You can learn from it. really enjoyed this week and it has

:56:07. > :56:17.been fantastic coming here. I wanted to get a second swim, which

:56:17. > :56:30.

:56:30. > :56:34.I did. Obviously, I wanted a third Campbell began his Olympic campaign.

:56:34. > :56:41.The men's hockey team were looking to build on their winning start and

:56:41. > :56:45.were up against South Africa. In football Team GB's men were hoping

:56:45. > :56:53.to book a place in the quarter- finals. They met Uruguay at the

:56:53. > :57:03.Millennium Stadium. If you want to watch the football live it is over

:58:56. > :59:03.

:59:12. > :59:17.Anthony Josh Hanna, 22, 91 plus and I am from London. I can punch, but

:59:17. > :59:23.at the same time at my weight I am a slick fighter because I have got

:59:23. > :59:28.to have a good defence. You do not want to take silly shots. It is

:59:28. > :59:33.like a tree, somebody will be chopping you down. You have got to

:59:33. > :59:43.take the shots and come back and be very natural and be quick and

:59:43. > :59:47.

:59:47. > :59:52.speedy. Do not let the Crown to dictate your site, you are in

:59:52. > :59:56.control of your situation. You have to stay in control of your

:59:56. > :00:05.atmosphere. Bowing to the Olympic Games I know it is going to be an

:00:05. > :00:11.amazing atmosphere. Maybe when they see two 6 ft 8, 6 ft 6, massive

:00:11. > :00:14.guys walking in, they will be excited. But I have to stick to my

:00:14. > :00:24.game plan and at the end of the day as long as I am winning, that is

:00:24. > :00:26.

:00:26. > :00:36.I don't want to get too cocky and play to the crowd. I want them to

:00:36. > :00:42.get behind us because we will put our hearts on the line for this. It

:00:42. > :00:47.is work, it is a job. I am not there to party with everyone. I

:00:47. > :00:51.have got to keep it low-key and get the job done. We are not just doing

:00:51. > :00:59.it for ourselves, but doing it for the country as well. It is another

:00:59. > :01:06.day in the office and you have to go out and be to your opponent. It

:01:06. > :01:11.is just business. Things are livening up, medal prospects

:01:11. > :01:15.everywhere. We have won a couple of gold medals today. One was Bradley

:01:15. > :01:21.Wiggins and he is making his way across the park. Let's see if we

:01:21. > :01:28.can find him. There is the flame. He took part in the Opening

:01:28. > :01:32.Ceremony when he rang in the bell. That is worth the scene is now. If

:01:32. > :01:38.you see anyone on a bike, that it will be him. I am told his arrival

:01:38. > :01:44.is imminent. Things are happening all over London and all over the

:01:44. > :01:51.park. Great sport going on in all of the venues this evening. Now we

:01:51. > :01:55.can go back to the aquatic centre. I love that few of Tower Bridge and

:01:55. > :02:00.the only one out of the three of us who has seen a bit of London is

:02:00. > :02:06.used. I have been getting out a little bit. How do you find London?

:02:06. > :02:13.It is great. There is a buzz about London, I think because of the

:02:13. > :02:21.Olympic games. In winning those medals, it was a great thing

:02:21. > :02:25.because it would be good to host a successful Olympics. Two gold

:02:25. > :02:32.medals in the rowing and road race and a silver medal in the pole from

:02:32. > :02:37.Michael Jamieson. He wanted to make a point about the crowds? I know

:02:37. > :02:42.people have said, don't cheer for everyone else, just cheer for us.

:02:42. > :02:49.We look at the Olympics being in London, everyone loves their sport.

:02:49. > :02:54.They cheer on the champions and it is an you get the applause and

:02:54. > :03:00.recognition you deserve. Michael Phelps and the swimmers they have

:03:00. > :03:06.read about in the papers, when they come round the crowd feel they know

:03:06. > :03:11.them. People asked me what was my favourite Games, it was Sydney,

:03:11. > :03:17.Australia. People are knowledgeable about their sport and the crowd got

:03:17. > :03:23.into it too much. And then I came here, but I am not swimming any

:03:23. > :03:29.more. In terms of watching the Games in London, where would you

:03:29. > :03:35.recommend people go? If you haven't got tickets, and I know people have

:03:35. > :03:39.missed out on to get, get down to Hyde Park and Victoria parks.

:03:39. > :03:45.Completely free, big-screen has. You'll get a feeling of what the

:03:45. > :03:51.Olympics has got to offer. They will be popular next week, because

:03:51. > :03:56.of the open-water swimming? He has, Keri-Anne Payne will be in there,

:03:56. > :04:00.Daniel Fogg for the men. When they are doing a race that last two

:04:00. > :04:08.hours, and if they can get any enthusiasm from the crowd, they are

:04:08. > :04:18.the guys who will need it. It will be fantastic. Do you fancy that?

:04:18. > :04:24.

:04:24. > :04:30.Not at all. He means that I would go and get out of the shallow end

:04:30. > :04:36.and not go any further. We have already seen a world record from

:04:36. > :04:44.Rebecca Soni, also James Magnussen been beaten by the American. And we

:04:44. > :04:48.have seen a British silver medal, now we have the women's relay. The

:04:48. > :04:54.Americans are the hot favourites for this. You said your favourite

:04:54. > :04:58.to was winning the relay in Australia? It is. I go from either

:04:58. > :05:04.the first day at the Sydney Olympics, or defending my title in

:05:04. > :05:10.Athens. It is emotional because someone gave up their spot to let

:05:10. > :05:15.me swim in this race. My best performance is in the relay. If

:05:15. > :05:20.only I could come -- produce the equivalent times in my own race has

:05:20. > :05:25.come I would have been much faster. It is amazing what you can do when

:05:25. > :05:31.you have a great group of people around you. You're not just winning

:05:31. > :05:38.for yourself. We don't want to let anybody down. My favour relay was

:05:38. > :05:48.the men's 4x100 in Sydney. You guys came out, stood up in front of your

:05:48. > :05:48.

:05:48. > :05:53.home crowd. We saw France beaten in Beijing by the UN day -- USA. It

:05:53. > :06:00.can happen. The USA will be the favourites going in. I wouldn't

:06:00. > :06:05.rule out China. They are always strong. A France in lane two next

:06:05. > :06:10.to Britain. And then you have Australia. I won't rule out

:06:10. > :06:20.Australia but the USA have to be the favourites. Great Britain have

:06:20. > :06:23.done great to make this final. If you are listening this morning, Jo

:06:23. > :06:28.Jackson has had the most extraordinary time since winning

:06:28. > :06:32.the bronze medal behind Becky Adlington in Beijing. She suffered

:06:32. > :06:37.a badly from asthma. In training she was struggling to breathe and

:06:37. > :06:46.put so much pressure on her ribs, they were popping out. I did not

:06:46. > :06:52.know this. I heard that because you had asthma you started slimming?

:06:52. > :06:55.Not true. A lot of champion swimmers that do start swimming

:06:55. > :07:02.swimmers that do start swimming because they have asthma problems.

:07:02. > :07:09.It is controlling your breathing. Here is the line-up. Great Britain

:07:09. > :07:16.will be coming out first. On the subject of asthma, Adrian

:07:16. > :07:24.Moorhouse, you had asthma? I did. I remember seeing a specialist,

:07:24. > :07:29.having problems running. He told me to stick to swimming. Here is the

:07:29. > :07:39.British team. Caitlin McClatchey, Rebecca turner, Hannah Miley and Jo

:07:39. > :07:39.

:07:39. > :07:45.Jackson. Caitlin McClatchey leading them out. She made the final of the

:07:45. > :07:50.4x200 metres relay in Athens. Finalist in the individual 200m

:07:51. > :07:58.freestyle at the last two Olympics. That is three Olympic games are

:07:58. > :08:08.making finals, very impressive from Caitlin McClatchey. Here is France,

:08:08. > :08:11.

:08:11. > :08:15.Adrian? Yes, they want to get a monks the race. Canada in 3?

:08:15. > :08:23.they can hold that position it will be a bronze medal. But they might

:08:23. > :08:28.struggle. Beware of the Australian women's relay team. The 4x100 was

:08:28. > :08:34.stunning. I love watching a team that stands up, is counted and

:08:34. > :08:41.fights. They did exactly that. They stole a gold medal that they did

:08:41. > :08:51.nothing would be theirs. This is an interesting team. Missy Franklin

:08:51. > :08:55.led off on the 4x100 freestyle relay. Only 4th in the 200. She was

:08:55. > :09:05.swinging her arms then and almost hit a Allison Schmitt on their head

:09:05. > :09:11.

:09:11. > :09:18.you can have a bit of fun with your team mates. The Chinese coming out

:09:18. > :09:25.in lane seven. Little bit on the outside, if they can get ahead of

:09:25. > :09:34.the Japanese on the outside of them, they will have clean water. The

:09:34. > :09:43.Japanese having a fabulous Olympics. Another bronze from the outside.

:09:43. > :09:52.Great Britain in lane one. If you get in the centre and big swimmers

:09:52. > :09:59.dived in, the waves are very big. Then you get a massive The Wash.

:09:59. > :10:09.The gold is not going anywhere between America Australia is it?

:10:09. > :10:11.

:10:11. > :10:19.Can you see beyond that? I can see be on them for the first leg.

:10:20. > :10:29.Expect team fans to go very quickly. -- team France. Great Britain at

:10:29. > :10:38.the top. The final of the women's 4x200 metres freestyle relay.

:10:38. > :10:45.Caitlin McClatchey ingoing first the Great Britain. As expected, in

:10:45. > :10:50.lane two going pretty fast is Camille Moffatt of France? Terrific

:10:50. > :11:00.first leg from Camille Muffat. A very strong stop Missy Franklin

:11:00. > :11:38.

:11:38. > :11:44.swim. This will be interesting to see what time they do. Missy

:11:44. > :11:54.Franklin has gone out very fast. Bronte Barratt of Australia is

:11:54. > :12:00.

:12:00. > :12:08.catching up a little bit. This last 50m is going to hurt for Missy

:12:08. > :12:18.Franklin. Right on the records. The three of the teams on the world

:12:18. > :12:37.

:12:37. > :12:47.record. The next Australian has well for Great Britain is Rebecca

:12:47. > :12:57.

:12:57. > :13:06.turner. She may have brought us up were doing 1.55. I think the world

:13:06. > :13:13.record might go way from these teams, actually. They are just

:13:13. > :13:20.still on it. In for the USA is Tom Vollmar. Breaking the world record

:13:20. > :13:30.in the individual 100m butterfly. She is the world record holder on

:13:30. > :13:30.

:13:30. > :13:36.the 100m butterfly but only uses one butterfly kick. Ryan Lochte and

:13:37. > :13:45.Michael Phelps stay underwater for quite a while. Coming back on the

:13:45. > :13:55.world record time, this is interesting. I think this for --

:13:55. > :13:57.

:13:57. > :14:07.the French might struggle on the third leg. The third leg far

:14:07. > :14:15.

:14:15. > :14:24.this at the moment. I thought Missy Franklin and Dana Vollmer would

:14:24. > :14:32.beat way ahead, and they are not. It is Australia leading. USA second,

:14:32. > :14:37.then France. Great Britain are in 6th position. Hannah Miley has

:14:37. > :14:47.taken over from Rebecca turner. Hannah Miley has been wrested from

:14:47. > :15:12.

:15:12. > :15:19.this morning. Melanie Strang there heard in this. This is very tight.

:15:19. > :15:24.It is cat-and-mouse. The individual winner of the 200m freestyle,

:15:24. > :15:30.Alison's and it is going on the final leg that the USA. Australia

:15:30. > :15:40.do need a massive lead. Alicia Coutts is going to need a bigger

:15:40. > :15:49.

:15:49. > :15:59.of the rest of the field. Look at this, Palmer must know this,

:15:59. > :15:59.

:15:59. > :16:06.digging in. She is going to need a bit more. The only job for America

:16:06. > :16:11.now is to stay close. She is really digging in. The last leg will be

:16:11. > :16:17.Alicia Coutts of Australia going in first. Alison Schmitt in for the

:16:17. > :16:27.Isa. Great Britain have just moved up to 4th position. Hannah Miley, a

:16:27. > :16:28.

:16:28. > :16:33.very good the lake. The -- a very good leg. Canada are battling for

:16:33. > :16:43.the 4th position. Australia are still in the lead. Alison's Schmitt

:16:43. > :16:45.

:16:45. > :16:50.is tracking her. Coutts has got good experience. She had a 0.6

:16:50. > :17:00.league. I don't think it is good enough. Schmitt is just hunting her

:17:00. > :17:02.down. -- a 0.6 lead. Let's see what happens on this term. I would

:17:02. > :17:06.imagine Schmitt is going to kick off the wall and tried to get a

:17:06. > :17:11.body length, and that will open up a gap that I don't think Coutts can

:17:11. > :17:18.catch. Four butterfly cakes underwater, unbelievable from

:17:18. > :17:24.Alison Schmitt. It was in month -- butterfly kicks under water. It was

:17:24. > :17:28.immense. Coutts is a really good freestyler. The tactics for

:17:28. > :17:33.Australia are interesting. They sent off their fastest 200 metres

:17:33. > :17:38.freestyle at first. Alicia Coutts has not been dropped yet, let's not

:17:38. > :17:44.give this to the Americans quite yet. France are in the bronze-medal

:17:44. > :17:49.position. I think the half a second extra that she has added, there is

:17:49. > :17:55.no way that Schmid will give this up. The Americans and Australians

:17:55. > :18:05.in your picture, that is how dominant this race has been.

:18:05. > :18:06.

:18:06. > :18:11.Schmitz got a 400 medal and it is another gold for her. The silver

:18:11. > :18:18.goes Australia. I wonderful bronze medal for France. Great Britain

:18:18. > :18:22.finishing in 5th position. A very good swim form them. A solid swim

:18:22. > :18:32.from the British. An Olympic record from the Americans, they were not

:18:32. > :18:33.

:18:33. > :18:37.far off the world record. Schmitt having the swim of her life.

:18:37. > :18:41.got out of the pool very fast. You're not allowed to get out of

:18:41. > :18:51.the pool until the rest of the swimmers are finished. That will be

:18:51. > :18:52.

:18:52. > :18:59.STUDIO: They were disqualified them for getting out of the pool, will

:18:59. > :19:07.they -- they went disqualified them? I don't think so. They did

:19:07. > :19:17.not disrupt the race. I strongly doubt it. Australia gave it a

:19:17. > :19:18.

:19:18. > :19:21.really good shot, particularly on the third leg. I am really proud of

:19:21. > :19:26.a silver medal for Australia. We thought the American team would

:19:26. > :19:31.dominate this race. There was a point, I did get goose bumps, I

:19:31. > :19:36.thought we were in for a shot. This is a very good silver for us.

:19:36. > :19:41.see how much it matters to Missy Franklin and Vollmer next to her.

:19:41. > :19:51.The team coming next -- coming together. They are the dominant

:19:51. > :19:52.

:19:53. > :19:57.You can see the American girl celebrating, they came in as hot

:19:57. > :20:07.favourites, they were pushed by Australia. Great Britain have

:20:07. > :20:10.

:20:11. > :20:12.finished 5th and that is as good as Tomorrow, we are going to have

:20:12. > :20:17.Tomorrow, we are going to have great interest, Fran Halsall be

:20:17. > :20:27.going in the final of the 100 metres freestyle. Brian Lochte has

:20:27. > :20:28.two gold medals in his sights. -- Ryan Lochte. Tomorrow morning we

:20:28. > :20:32.will see Becky Adlington swing in will see Becky Adlington swing in

:20:32. > :20:37.her heats, the final is not until Friday and that is our best chance

:20:37. > :20:43.of a British gold medal in the pool. Thanks to Mark Foster and insult,

:20:43. > :20:47.and Gary, thanks for letting us borrow him. -- thanks to Mark

:20:47. > :20:52.Foster and Ian Thorpe. Look who is with us, the gold

:20:52. > :20:58.medallist himself, Bradley Wiggins. Oh wonderful effort, a true hero of

:20:58. > :21:08.the public. They are all waving achoo, there you go. They know you

:21:08. > :21:11.

:21:11. > :21:18.What a month you have had. The Tour de France and now an Olympic gold

:21:18. > :21:24.medal. Sensational stuff. It has been mad, to be honest. From the

:21:24. > :21:28.moment I got back from France, it has been massively over warming. To

:21:28. > :21:33.come to London and top it off with another gold medal, it hasn't

:21:33. > :21:37.really sunk in -- overwhelming. For the last nine days I have been

:21:37. > :21:40.trying to take in everything from the tour. The realisation that I

:21:41. > :21:44.have won the Tour de France. To come to a home Olympic Games, to

:21:45. > :21:49.have to go out there and perform and put everything together again,

:21:49. > :21:54.it has not been easy. At the same time, it has been enjoyable. To

:21:54. > :21:58.finish it off today, in front of that many people... It was an

:21:58. > :22:02.unbelievable turn out, there seemed to be millions of people. It was

:22:02. > :22:05.incredible. I remember going through Kingston with about 10 K to

:22:05. > :22:11.go and the noise from one of the roundabouts, it is something I'll

:22:11. > :22:17.never forget. I said at the finish, I don't think I will top that in my

:22:17. > :22:24.sporting career. I'll never get that opportunity again, a home

:22:24. > :22:28.Olympics in front of that many people, it was really special.

:22:28. > :22:37.you have broken so Steve Redgrave's record, you now hold more medals

:22:37. > :22:43.than any other British athlete in any sport. To be mentioned in the

:22:43. > :22:52.same breath as Steve, and so Chris Hoy and the others, it is a bit of

:22:52. > :22:57.an honour. A few decent names on their, and you are the top, and you

:22:57. > :23:01.might be a so very shortly! gold medals are the only one that

:23:01. > :23:07.matter in Olympic sport. Once you have had one, you just want to

:23:07. > :23:11.accumulate more. To be in that company is phenomenal. Tell me

:23:11. > :23:16.about the time trial. You were supremely confident, it seemed,

:23:16. > :23:20.going into the race, did you almost know you're going to win? Time

:23:20. > :23:27.trialing, they call it the race of truth. It is just a physical test

:23:27. > :23:32.over 55 minutes, as fast as you can go. It is pretty much the physical

:23:32. > :23:35.effort you can sustain for that length of time. 10 days ago I won

:23:35. > :23:39.the last time trial stage of the Tour de France by a considerable

:23:39. > :23:42.margin. Physically, nothing is going to change in nine days, if

:23:42. > :23:46.anything you get better because you have time to rest and freshen up.

:23:46. > :23:49.It was just managing everything else, coming back from the talk and

:23:49. > :23:55.going straight into the holding camp in Surrey, and concentrating

:23:55. > :23:59.on the road race for Mark Cavendish. That was it really. I was confident

:23:59. > :24:02.that not a lot would change from a performance. One thing does change,

:24:02. > :24:07.the pressure of expectation and athletes can deal with that in

:24:07. > :24:11.different ways. Yeah, I thrive off that, I really get into my thing. I

:24:11. > :24:15.knew it was there physically, I wanted to go out there and make

:24:15. > :24:23.those people happy. When you are out there you are conscious of the

:24:23. > :24:27.noise. It was phenomenal. You have all sorts of goodwill messages,

:24:27. > :24:31.this from Chris Foy. And Chris Froome, we should mention him as

:24:31. > :24:36.well. He has kind of got overshadowed perhaps by my

:24:36. > :24:40.performance in the last six weeks. Himself, second in the Tour de

:24:40. > :24:45.France, Olympic medallist, phenomenal, really. I have a lot of

:24:45. > :24:49.the accolades but we shouldn't forget that what he has achieved in

:24:49. > :24:54.the last couple of weeks. During the race, you must have felt you

:24:54. > :24:58.were going well. You get lots of information as you are going along.

:24:58. > :25:02.Because you start at minute and a half intervals, you must need to

:25:02. > :25:07.know what the time is. We carry radios, I am getting the feedback

:25:07. > :25:11.all the time. There are some quite long stretches, I could see the

:25:11. > :25:18.vehicles behind, Tony Martin in front of me, he was the main

:25:18. > :25:27.challenger. Once I got in sight I was up on him, plus you were

:25:28. > :25:32.getting the time checks. Can I ask you who gives you that information?

:25:32. > :25:37.Sean Yates was behind me in the car, he has been with me in all the

:25:38. > :25:42.races I have won this year. He came in and did that job. You won by 42

:25:42. > :25:51.seconds, it sounds a hell of a lot to me. In time trialing terms, it

:25:51. > :25:59.is. You only have to win by a second. For every five, six seconds,

:25:59. > :26:03.it equates to a power of measured in Watts. A bit like the 100 metres

:26:03. > :26:08.sprint in the athletics. The one hundredth of a second equates to so

:26:08. > :26:14.many metres. Every three, four seconds on the road equates to

:26:14. > :26:21.however many metres. 42 seconds, it is the best part of 500 metres, it

:26:21. > :26:26.is a lot over that distance that you are taking. It only had to be

:26:26. > :26:30.one second. 42 is nice. You are still unaware, coming into the

:26:30. > :26:36.finish and I couldn't take my foot off the gas. It only takes one

:26:36. > :26:41.punter at the wrong time and it was all over. It -- want puncture. It

:26:42. > :26:46.is a precarious business. It is so different to the road race which is

:26:46. > :26:51.so tactical. It is an out and out physical challenge, the road race

:26:51. > :26:56.has a lot more tactics, plus 200 other guys who didn't want Mark

:26:56. > :27:01.Cavendish to win. This is the race of truth, really. There is no

:27:01. > :27:06.hiding, when you are good, there is nowhere to hide, and when you are

:27:06. > :27:10.bad. I think Indurain is the only person to duplicate your

:27:10. > :27:15.achievement of winning the Tour de France and the Olympics in this

:27:15. > :27:20.area, good company. He didn't win the Tour de France in 1996. He won

:27:20. > :27:25.the Olympics but not the Tour de France. Yeah, a different here.

:27:25. > :27:29.Lance Armstrong got third in Sydney and won the Tour de France. To come

:27:29. > :27:34.off the Tour de France and when that come on home ground, and have

:27:34. > :27:40.all that going on out there... It is mad, it really is. It hasn't

:27:40. > :27:47.really sunk in. I left home six weeks ago to go to the Tour de

:27:47. > :27:52.France, relatively unknown. Known in cycling circles. I come back and

:27:52. > :27:56.have this overwhelming adulation, it is great. At the end of the day,

:27:56. > :28:00.cycling is a minority sport and the profile is raising every year with

:28:00. > :28:04.Chris Foy and Mark Cavendish. Each year we have been putting this

:28:04. > :28:10.performance together and inspiring the next generation. I am sure in

:28:10. > :28:13.the Velodrome, they also come away with quite a few. The interest in

:28:13. > :28:19.cycling has grown dramatically, if you just have to be on the streets

:28:19. > :28:24.of London. Lee Dixon and those boys, they are mad for it. Jonathan

:28:24. > :28:28.Edwards. They are loving it. It is a bit strange, for a sport like

:28:28. > :28:35.ours. I had a message from Robbie Fowler, Joey Barton, they are

:28:35. > :28:40.loving it. You are a Liverpool fan? Yes. Alan Hansen is a few yards

:28:40. > :28:47.away, he sent his congratulations. It is reaching out and it is

:28:47. > :28:52.fantastic. The sideburns thing, I know it is going to set a trend. It

:28:52. > :28:58.annoys me a bit because I can't grow them. You can get stuck on

:28:58. > :29:03.ones, or you could have cut them out of the Mirror. That is another

:29:03. > :29:07.thing that has caught on. certainly will now. Congratulations.

:29:07. > :29:14.We have one little thing for you what I have given are the gold

:29:14. > :29:19.medallists today, a special edition stamp -- our other gold medallists.

:29:19. > :29:25.It is actually going out. You can keep that. Not as good as the gold

:29:25. > :29:35.medal. Where is it? Show everyone at home. Another one for the

:29:35. > :29:35.

:29:36. > :29:40.cabinet. Those folk out there would like to see it. How about that?

:29:40. > :29:47.know how The Beatles felt now! can't sing as well, can you?

:29:47. > :29:52.Definitely not. Thanks so much for coming in, the nation loved it. A

:29:52. > :29:56.brilliant Olympic moment. Thank you. Let's go to the boxing ring. We are

:29:56. > :30:06.going to see the odd spot, Luke Campbell, the world championship

:30:06. > :30:26.

:30:26. > :30:32.again. Luke Campbell having awaited five days has found himself level

:30:32. > :30:42.pegging with the man from Italy. That was good from Luke Campbell.

:30:42. > :30:48.

:30:49. > :30:58.His opponent just hesitated not quite land. A apologies from

:30:59. > :31:10.

:31:10. > :31:15.the Italian for hitting after the hand side of the screen do not

:31:15. > :31:19.happen at London 2012. The scores will be announced at the end.

:31:19. > :31:29.Campbell cannot let this man get too close to him, he is dangerous

:31:29. > :31:30.

:31:30. > :31:36.with the right hand. I think the Italian was trying to put Luke

:31:36. > :31:41.Campbell out of that relax style. He tries to swing him round and

:31:41. > :31:47.annoy him ever-so-slightly. A little bit messy again. Neither

:31:47. > :31:57.boxer behaving themselves on the command break. Not getting things

:31:57. > :32:12.

:32:12. > :32:17.his own way, Luke Campbell. That his jab. Italian is not letting him

:32:17. > :32:22.off the hook. He is coming after Luke Campbell all of the time.

:32:22. > :32:26.Maybe being a little bit too aggressive. If he keeps that up he

:32:26. > :32:36.might find himself on the wrong end of a public warning which will cost

:32:36. > :32:44.

:32:44. > :32:48.working with his jab and frustrates his opponent. You need him to come

:32:48. > :32:58.on to Campbell and then he will use his counterpunching ability he has

:32:58. > :33:03.

:33:03. > :33:12.thought it would be relatively easy for Luke Campbell. He has to get

:33:12. > :33:22.past this one. Yes he has had a bye, but now he is boxing again someone

:33:22. > :33:39.

:33:39. > :33:49.through by the Italian. Good covering by Campbell. Campbell has

:33:49. > :33:50.

:33:50. > :33:56.one man round. -- won that round. Better by Campbell? Much better,

:33:56. > :34:02.here just did his feet a lot better. A corner will be pleased. There

:34:02. > :34:07.will be a change of tactics by the Italian, he will come out for Luke

:34:08. > :34:17.Campbell at the beginning of this round. He needs to keep his chin

:34:18. > :34:33.

:34:33. > :34:43.tucked in down a bit lower and his South Paul representing Great

:34:43. > :35:06.

:35:06. > :35:11.thought it was a good shot. The problem the Italian has got his he

:35:12. > :35:17.has to be close to Campbell and he knows that. He is careful about

:35:17. > :35:27.walking in and landing on the long- range shot. He has got to close the

:35:27. > :35:41.

:35:41. > :35:46.gap down. This will suit Campbell. he does not need to do that. Still

:35:47. > :35:56.too close for comfort the Campbell. He needs a couple of insurance

:35:57. > :35:58.

:35:58. > :36:05.points. The Italian employed in some rough-house tactics. It is

:36:05. > :36:15.tiny issued a final caution to him. Keeping him at bay now, he has

:36:15. > :36:24.

:36:24. > :36:30.done from a good position. This Italian will be more desperate and

:36:30. > :36:40.start throwing some right hands and trying to get through the middle.

:36:40. > :36:51.

:36:51. > :37:01.It is all about Campbell keeping pushing the Italian's head down.

:37:01. > :37:05.Beautiful. Sweet. Showed him the right, popped him with the left.

:37:05. > :37:12.The accuracy and quality from Campbell was very good. The timing

:37:12. > :37:18.was perfect. It has taken him quite a while to warm up. But he did have

:37:18. > :37:24.to wait five days before his first contest. He has to keep

:37:24. > :37:34.concentrating and making the weight. He should be winning this third

:37:34. > :37:47.

:37:47. > :37:52.round. Once again, the Italian in the left certainly scored. I think

:37:53. > :38:02.he is home and dry now. Coming into the last can't -- seconds of the

:38:03. > :38:10.

:38:10. > :38:15.Italian at the end. A little touch of gloves and Campbell gives a

:38:15. > :38:22.little shrug. As if to say I wasn't that my best, but good enough to

:38:22. > :38:28.win. This is his first contest. 10,000 people, he will be nervous.

:38:28. > :38:34.He boxed well in the last round, very intelligent, long range. Got

:38:34. > :38:40.caught with the odd shot but his timing was better. And that left

:38:40. > :38:49.hand of his was the best shots for Campbell in the last round. Just

:38:49. > :38:57.brings his opponent on to it. Super, well-timed punch and he is a wave.

:38:57. > :39:06.-- away. Not wasting any time, the judges' scores have been brought a

:39:07. > :39:13.cross to the man on the PA system. I think Campbell has got this one.

:39:13. > :39:18.Ladies and gentlemen, the winner by a score of 11 points to nine in the

:39:18. > :39:28.red corner... The representing Great Britain, Luke Campbell!

:39:28. > :39:31.

:39:31. > :39:36.will be happy enough with that. Maybe not happy enough about the

:39:36. > :39:46.performance, but it is about the victory. Luke Campbell has got the

:39:46. > :39:47.

:39:47. > :39:50.My first fight, nerves are more than anything false start bit is

:39:50. > :39:58.getting in the ring and getting your first fight. Hopefully I will

:39:58. > :40:02.get better as I go along. You were 86 up, and he was coming back, what

:40:02. > :40:09.were your thoughts on that? Just keep it tidy and popping them down

:40:09. > :40:13.the middle. He is a good fighter, and has beaten some top oppositions.

:40:13. > :40:19.I have to stay focused and stick to the game than four-star you had

:40:19. > :40:26.some great support in here tonight? The fans in here, I have never seen

:40:26. > :40:33.anything like it in my life. Fantastic. As a silver-medallist,

:40:33. > :40:37.how does competing at the Olympic games differ? It's is the biggest

:40:37. > :40:42.occasion of my life, boxing in the Olympic games. I have worked all my

:40:42. > :40:49.life to get here and perform the Great Britain. Now I have won my

:40:49. > :40:55.first fight and I cannot believe it. Keep going and well done.

:40:55. > :41:01.Let's bring you up-to-date with events from the day.

:41:01. > :41:04.Great Britain has won its first gold of these Games will stop Helen

:41:04. > :41:10.Glover and Heather Stanning, a Olympic champions in the women's

:41:10. > :41:13.pair. GB's men's eight were among the

:41:13. > :41:19.medals at the Eton Dorney rowing lake. They took bronze behind

:41:19. > :41:23.Germany and Canada. Bradley Wiggins struck gold in the

:41:23. > :41:31.time trial to become Britain's most decorated Olympian, with seven

:41:31. > :41:38.medals. Chris Froome won bronze. Scott Michael Jamieson claimed a

:41:38. > :41:42.superb silver in the men's 200m breaststroke. It took a world

:41:42. > :41:47.record from Daniel Gyurta to beat record from Daniel Gyurta to beat

:41:47. > :41:53.him. The medal table is considerably more attractive this

:41:53. > :42:03.evening. Britain is just outside the top 10 now. China well ahead

:42:03. > :42:07.

:42:07. > :42:11.We have some distressing news now. A cyclist has been killed near the

:42:11. > :42:18.Olympic Park tonight after being hit by what Scotland Yard described

:42:18. > :42:24.as an Olympic bus. The man, who is believed to be aged around 30, was

:42:24. > :42:27.struck by a vehicle in Hackney, east London at around 7:40pm. A

:42:27. > :42:31.police spokesman announced he was pronounced dead at the scene. A

:42:31. > :42:34.very sad. For the remainder of our time on

:42:34. > :42:41.BBC One we will concentrate on BBC One we will concentrate on

:42:41. > :42:45.football. Team she be needed a draw for a place in the quarter-finals.

:42:45. > :42:55.Jonathan Pearce and Mark Lawrenson watching for us at the Millennium

:42:55. > :43:07.

:43:07. > :43:17.Welsh boys. For so long they have been denied a place on football's

:43:17. > :43:19.

:43:19. > :43:29.world stage. If they finished behind Senegal, they will face next

:43:29. > :43:29.

:43:29. > :44:24.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 86 seconds

:44:24. > :44:32.ago. Uruguay cannot rely on the pitch is beginning to cut up in

:44:32. > :44:39.certain sections. It is a unique picture system. 7,400 pilots, which

:44:39. > :44:46.can be removed to transform the value. That cross was dangerous

:44:46. > :44:51.towards the far post. A good intervention by Taylor, it put the

:44:51. > :45:01.Uruguay it plough under all sorts of pressure. -- the Uruguay player

:45:01. > :45:09.

:45:09. > :45:19.under all sorts of pressure. score from there, wouldn't it?

:45:19. > :45:35.

:45:35. > :45:42.your instep. -- it would have been but he lunged in. Suarez has a run

:45:42. > :45:47.on Joe Allen. In towards Coates, he got the header away. It was a

:45:47. > :45:57.little bit strange. 6 ft 6 ins centre-back, you think somebody

:45:57. > :46:04.

:46:04. > :46:09.four for Uruguay today. There was a gap for Aaron Ramsey! He wants a

:46:09. > :46:17.corner but the goal-kick is given. Great play. A clever ball from

:46:17. > :46:27.Bellamy to Ramsey. A very clever ball. A supergrass. It --

:46:27. > :46:45.

:46:45. > :46:55.supergrass, it just says, get on has gone down. Great play from

:46:55. > :47:05.

:47:05. > :47:15.Uruguay. Butland was out quickly to Suarez. The ball has got too much

:47:15. > :47:34.

:47:34. > :47:38.got the header, Uruguay appeal for a penalty against Joe Allen, the

:47:38. > :47:45.referee says it hits him on the chest. Coates has stayed for. In

:47:45. > :47:49.the end, Sturridge can relieve the pressure. Uruguay have a player

:47:49. > :47:59.down. The referee made a call very early on, thinking it hit some

:47:59. > :48:10.

:48:10. > :48:17.run by its Joe Allen, he checks back, 1-0! Sturridge. Joe Allen was

:48:17. > :48:24.brilliant. Could play by Sinclair. I think Uruguay are saying they

:48:24. > :48:34.think Sturridge is offside. Much better from a Team GB. The first

:48:34. > :48:41.

:48:41. > :48:51.time Sinclair had committed I think he is on. What a turn that

:48:51. > :49:01.

:49:01. > :49:07.have a man over, Sinclair back across goal, how did he miss?

:49:07. > :49:13.Offside anyway. How did Sturridge miss from a yard out? I think he

:49:13. > :49:23.took his eye off it. He picked him out at the far post, a lovely head

:49:23. > :49:34.

:49:34. > :49:40.through the U20 side from 2009. Here is Suarez, this is urgent.

:49:40. > :49:43.Good save from Butland. They smothered it and got it away. A big

:49:43. > :49:53.moment that has come and gone for Luis Suarez and Uruguay, well done

:49:53. > :49:58.

:49:58. > :50:08.Jack Butland. Another important score. Coates, of Scottish roots.

:50:08. > :50:22.

:50:23. > :50:32.Is he? Yes, Kenny Dalglish said... with a Spanish accent. A chance,

:50:33. > :51:00.

:51:00. > :51:05.shot away, a good save, it can save by Butland. Two, now, second

:51:06. > :51:15.half. Fell asleep originally with Suarez. Very tight for Edinson

:51:16. > :51:24.

:51:24. > :51:34.line on the far side of the pitch. Joe Allen, Taylor, it into the near

:51:34. > :51:36.

:51:36. > :51:40.the Swansea City player, to wrap up a victory for Team GB in Cardiff.

:51:40. > :51:50.We were right behind this, it never really looked like it was going in,

:51:50. > :52:05.

:52:05. > :52:15.it didn't finish too far away. beat a goalkeeper of Butland's

:52:15. > :52:23.

:52:23. > :52:33.quality. Away by Cleverley, enough. Under pressure again. A

:52:33. > :52:43.free header. Was Suarez fouled? is going to get booked for handball.

:52:43. > :52:49.

:52:49. > :52:59.was knocked back, I think the referee has got a point. In towards

:52:59. > :53:08.

:53:08. > :53:14.Coates. Now it is cleared away, keeper pushed it around the post.

:53:14. > :53:18.The goalkeeper did well because he read it. He had a little step over,

:53:18. > :53:28.back inside, you know where it is going to go, bend it around the

:53:28. > :53:40.

:53:40. > :53:46.Ramirez. Poked away by Caulker, it has hit the bar. A brilliant effort.

:53:46. > :53:56.GB, riding their luck right at the end. Uruguay, unlucky not to

:53:56. > :54:15.

:54:15. > :54:20.Suarez. How about that for goalkeeping? Not only did he

:54:20. > :54:25.savoured, he caught it, he held it. He has held his nerve, so have

:54:25. > :54:29.Great Britain -- not only did he saved it? It was a confident save.

:54:29. > :54:33.A lovely last moment of the game for the big goalkeeper, and Great

:54:33. > :54:40.Britain and Stuart Pearce are through to the quarter-finals. They

:54:40. > :54:50.have won the group and they will face south Korea in Cardiff on

:54:50. > :54:57.

:54:57. > :55:01.Two times Olympic champions, Uruguay, are out. We can hear from

:55:01. > :55:09.Stuart Pearce. At times, the second half wasn't pretty but you have got

:55:09. > :55:13.the job done, you must be delighted. When you play anyone in a situation

:55:13. > :55:17.when it is them or us, a last group game, to all intents and purposes

:55:17. > :55:20.it was a knockout, I thought we played some outstanding football.

:55:20. > :55:24.Especially in the first half. In the second half we tired, they came

:55:24. > :55:29.into the game, that is to be expected. I am delighted, we have

:55:29. > :55:33.beaten a very good Uruguay side, they have some outstanding players,

:55:34. > :55:37.especially offensively, we kept a clean sheet. We will have to check

:55:37. > :55:41.everyone is OK and prepare them for the next game. You have got your

:55:41. > :55:48.reward by finishing top, you remain in Cardiff, how helpful will that

:55:48. > :55:55.be? We were organised either way. Our recovery would have been done

:55:55. > :56:01.tomorrow if we -- and we would have travelled to the Reading area if we

:56:01. > :56:06.moved to Wembley. It may be a good thing, one or two of the players,

:56:06. > :56:09.we can take them to training tomorrow. They have looked after as

:56:09. > :56:19.fantastically well in Cardiff, inside the stadium and outside. We

:56:19. > :56:41.

:56:41. > :56:46.are pleased to be staying here. Alan Hansen joins me, let us know

:56:46. > :56:50.how Team GB plate. They played all right, it wasn't a great game but

:56:50. > :56:54.there were so many positives, undefeated in the group, first

:56:54. > :56:59.clean sheet, got the job done. The togetherness and understanding was

:56:59. > :57:06.there. Uruguay came back into the second half, Butland made two great

:57:06. > :57:10.saves. They cruised to victory and I thought the last half-hour showed

:57:10. > :57:14.how professional they have become, they have come a long way in the
