:01:06. > :01:10.bikes, boats and horses. So far none standing up! We will be

:01:10. > :01:15.keeping an eye on Peter Wilson in the double trap shooting to see if

:01:15. > :01:23.he can be first to do so this afternoon. The main headlines so

:01:23. > :01:30.far today. The Lightweight Men's Four have won silver in a nail-

:01:50. > :01:53.has his sights set on gold after finishing top in qualifying in the

:01:53. > :01:58.final this afternoon. He is the world record holder and I have got

:01:58. > :02:05.world record holder and I have got a good feeling about this afternoon.

:02:05. > :02:12.Crane fleet China are top at -- currently China are top of the

:02:12. > :02:22.medal table. South Korea at not doing badly either. France having

:02:22. > :02:24.

:02:24. > :02:30.an excellent games. This afternoon we will have more medal chances,

:02:30. > :02:35.especially in the men's double trap final. Peter Wilson is the Dorset

:02:35. > :02:41.marks man who recently set a world record in this event. In this event

:02:41. > :02:47.Richard Faulds got a gold medal 12 years ago in Sydney. These are the

:02:47. > :02:52.standings as we head into the final this afternoon. That final will be

:02:52. > :03:00.at 3 o'clock. If the scores are tied there is a sudden death shoot

:03:00. > :03:04.off. Peter Wilson in a very good position right now. I am not sure

:03:04. > :03:10.how much work is being done around the country at the moment, many of

:03:10. > :03:16.you keeping tabs on the Games anyway you can. Perhaps taking a

:03:16. > :03:26.sneaky peek in your office right now! Millions of you are enjoying

:03:26. > :03:31.the light streams on the red button. This afternoon we have Serena

:03:31. > :03:36.Williams in action against Caroline Wosniacki of Denmark. Andy Murray

:03:36. > :03:44.came through his quarter-final and is in the mixed doubles action

:03:44. > :03:51.later this afternoon. The men's lightweights in the ring, Anthony

:03:51. > :03:57.Ogogo in action later on today for Team GB against the Ukrainian

:03:57. > :04:00.competitor. And the dressage, individual and team competitions.

:04:00. > :04:07.Decent hopes for a first ever Olympic medal for Great Britain in

:04:07. > :04:13.this event. You can watch that on the red button or by the website.

:04:13. > :04:21.Now before today it had been a pretty disappointing games for an

:04:21. > :04:29.judo. Today James Austin lost his first-round match against a former

:04:29. > :04:35.world champion from Japan, Takamasa Anai. But German Gibbons has been

:04:35. > :04:40.battling through her division today. The 24 year-old who got the British

:04:40. > :04:44.Open earlier this year has won two fights against Portuguese and

:04:44. > :04:52.Mongolian opponents today. Including that dramatic last-minute

:04:52. > :04:58.effort. In the quarter-final, if she wins she has a good shot at the

:04:58. > :05:03.she wins she has a good shot at the medals. Let us see how she does.

:05:03. > :05:13.Only the second British fighter to appear in a judo quarter-final this

:05:13. > :05:24.

:05:24. > :05:34.week. Colin Oates the other, sitting watching and hoping now.

:05:34. > :05:36.

:05:36. > :05:46.Gibbons in the blue. Gemma is capable of winning. She will be

:05:46. > :05:46.

:05:47. > :05:56.fighting out of her skin today. Of the Dutch woman the 10th best

:05:57. > :06:02.

:06:03. > :06:12.player in the world today. That dramatic second round win in the

:06:13. > :06:25.

:06:25. > :06:35.final second against the Mongolian. For Gemma the thicker the CV, the

:06:35. > :06:59.

:06:59. > :07:09.seconds of this fight. A brilliant attack! Hooks a leg in. Her

:07:09. > :07:12.

:07:13. > :07:22.opponent just managing to step back and get out of that. Gemma has

:07:22. > :07:32.being doing judo since she was six. Both fighters looking to get a grip

:07:32. > :07:45.

:07:45. > :07:53.on the jacket. She knows this area up well. Her

:07:53. > :08:03.Greenwich home just on the other side of the River Thames. Another

:08:03. > :08:08.

:08:08. > :08:18.strong attack from the Dutch woman. You only have a split second to

:08:18. > :08:18.

:08:18. > :09:08.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds

:09:08. > :09:18.attack once you have got a grip. have hurt herself and that exchange.

:09:18. > :09:21.

:09:22. > :09:27.Did she have a finger pooled? magic is going to come on. -- Madoc.

:09:27. > :09:37.The referee just checking she is OK to go on and she shakes her head,

:09:37. > :09:42.

:09:42. > :09:52.she is OK. Approaching the halfway point of this contest. Gemma

:09:52. > :09:58.

:09:58. > :10:08.looking for her attack now. Those Dutch razor blades coming off the

:10:08. > :10:25.

:10:25. > :10:34.left foot. Gemma looking for her own grips on the jacket. She has

:10:34. > :10:44.lost her belt. This was just about the most open division coming into

:10:44. > :10:55.

:10:55. > :10:58.these games. Gemma has forced her way into contention h ere.

:10:58. > :11:08.would not have been thought to be one of the favourites but here she

:11:08. > :11:16.

:11:16. > :11:25.is, doing really well. Trying to hook her leg in.

:11:25. > :11:30.It really is all to play for. all about the checks and balances.

:11:30. > :11:39.You need to be careful you're not off balance and susceptible to

:11:39. > :11:45.something from the opponent. have to wait for the right moment.

:11:45. > :11:55.It is a matter of trying to find a weakness, trying to push until you

:11:55. > :12:03.

:12:03. > :12:07.get that in balance. A great attack, Gemma almost scored. It is like an

:12:07. > :12:12.imaginary spirit level hovering over the head of the opponent.

:12:12. > :12:22.you just have a split second and then you just have to go for it,

:12:22. > :12:27.

:12:27. > :12:37.100%. Approaching the final minute of regulation time. Gemma Gibbons,

:12:37. > :12:44.

:12:44. > :12:54.the Londoner, in the blue. Against Verkerk in white. A warning for the

:12:54. > :13:04.

:13:04. > :13:13.Dutch fighter for stepping out. It has been wiped off for now.

:13:13. > :13:18.51 seconds left and still level. There will be three minutes of gold

:13:18. > :13:28.and scorer if these two cannot sort out their conversation during what

:13:28. > :13:36.

:13:36. > :13:44.is left of this one. Gemma continuing to push forward.

:13:44. > :13:54.What is causing the most pain? At the moment, you will be tired. But

:13:54. > :13:58.

:13:58. > :14:06.as soon as you start again, you are just in to the fight again.

:14:06. > :14:16.It is all the years of training. She has done it! She has gone and

:14:16. > :14:20.

:14:20. > :14:30.booked a place in at the semi- final! With an ippon. Has it been

:14:30. > :14:32.

:14:32. > :14:39.confirmed? With six seconds left on the clock. The television judges

:14:40. > :14:47.are taking a look at the replay and they are just checking. If she has

:14:47. > :14:57.slammed her opponent flat on her back then it will be confirmed as

:14:57. > :15:07.an ippon. If not then she still has six seconds to survive. And it has.

:15:07. > :15:10.

:15:10. > :15:20.judo campaign in the ExCel will scarcely be able to believe this.

:15:20. > :15:24.

:15:24. > :15:28.Gemma Gibbons from Britain, into the Olympic semifinals of the judo!

:15:28. > :15:33.The girls did it in a boat yesterday. They have been doing it

:15:33. > :15:40.on the bike, and now one of them is doing it on the mat. What more can

:15:40. > :15:43.you say about Gemma Gibbons. She is an Olympic semifinalist and she

:15:43. > :15:49.gets the embrace from Britain's last winner of an Olympic medal. Is

:15:49. > :15:52.the woman on the left about to be supplanted by the woman on the

:15:52. > :15:58.right. She fought so well there, Kate pointing to the mat, saying

:15:58. > :16:08.this is your next fight on. The next will be of course Gemma's

:16:08. > :16:16.

:16:16. > :16:19.semifinal fight. Ippon wazari, it Well done Gemma Gibbons. It is the

:16:19. > :16:25.late, late show with Gemma, sensational victory from her, she

:16:25. > :16:30.is into the semifinal. She will be fighting within the next 20 minutes.

:16:30. > :16:34.Her opponent is Tcheumeo. We will get to that one live as soon as we

:16:34. > :16:38.can. The reaction round Olympic Park and from British judo ka has

:16:38. > :16:44.been wonderful. Colin oaths who got to the quarterfinal, amazing she

:16:44. > :16:50.has done it into the semi. We have European Burton, Gemma is his

:16:50. > :16:57.girlfriend. Ewe on the Burton of course had that heartbreaking

:16:57. > :17:02.defeat. Euan says get some throat sweets, rest the voices and get

:17:02. > :17:06.ready to go mental for Gemma, she is our hero, great to see you and

:17:06. > :17:10.smiling again after giving his all the other day. He makes a cogent

:17:10. > :17:13.point here she has beaten the European bronze medallist, a world

:17:13. > :17:18.number seven and a former World Champion to get into this semifinal.

:17:18. > :17:24.We will be be back live for that. If she wins that it's a guaranteed

:17:24. > :17:26.silver. If not she will go into a fight against the winner of the

:17:26. > :17:31.representative charge. So it is all happening. Between now and then,

:17:31. > :17:35.this is the last day of action at the Lee Valley Whitewater Centre,

:17:35. > :17:39.about 30 miles north. Two more events to come there, the women's

:17:39. > :17:44.single kayak and the men's double canoe. What is the difference I

:17:45. > :17:49.hear you cry? Well, beneath that closed in skirt or deck, a kayaker

:17:49. > :17:55.is sitting down, and using a two bladed paddle. But the canoeists

:17:55. > :18:01.are kneeling up and they are using a single bladed paddle. So now you

:18:02. > :18:07.eknow. Today is when the whole of Slovakia will grind to a halt as

:18:07. > :18:10.they watch the most famous double act. They will be going for an

:18:10. > :18:15.unprecedented fourth consecutive gold. We will be seeing them later,

:18:15. > :18:18.but Great Britain has medal ambitions too. Two pairs going in

:18:18. > :18:23.this. Tim Baillie and etyeb Scot but it is Florence and houns blow

:18:23. > :18:33.are the stronger pair after winning a World Cup event. Fastest six from

:18:33. > :18:54.

:18:54. > :18:59.the semis go through to the final Both disappointed with their

:18:59. > :19:05.results in the C1 and the K1. So out here to make am mends, and so

:19:05. > :19:10.far, so good for the Great Britain crew. Keeping it tidy and tight.

:19:10. > :19:14.Richard is steering the canoe and David in the power down through the

:19:14. > :19:18.front. They will want to drive the lines as straight as possible.

:19:18. > :19:23.Sneaking under the pole and they are up on the split 1.50.

:19:23. > :19:27.stadium has come to life, now, that they have seen that split time. If

:19:27. > :19:34.they can hold it together. That is a good spin round, just finding a

:19:34. > :19:37.bit of difficulty, getting the momentum going, once more. Lift the

:19:37. > :19:43.bow over the stopper, they are slipping across into 13 and tight

:19:43. > :19:51.round the poles. David driving the bow of the canoe back out as they

:19:51. > :19:57.lift it over the stopper ahead of gate 14. No penalties at tall for

:19:57. > :20:04.David Florence or David houns loi so far. -- Richard Hounslow. Across

:20:04. > :20:10.17. We talk about them working well. These guys are working like a dream

:20:10. > :20:16.at the moment. Still ahead of the leaders. And tight in the spin, and

:20:16. > :20:20.back out across that wave as you see them keeping their nose high.

:20:20. > :20:25.The power gets laid down by David in the front as they steer the boat

:20:25. > :20:33.round and into the last up stream gate. 21. Two strokes and they are

:20:33. > :20:36.back out into the flow. The corrode are going mental here. -- crowd. A

:20:36. > :20:45.superb performance, Florence and Hounslow, going like trains, and in

:20:45. > :20:49.the lead. That surely is a place in the final. A wonderful performance.

:20:49. > :20:54.And far more confident. It looks than they were when they contested

:20:54. > :21:04.their individual events. One of the highly ranked pairs of course in

:21:04. > :21:10.the world, of C2 paddling. But that was just brilliant. A superb

:21:10. > :21:13.performance, a different focus to what we saw in the singles. It

:21:13. > :21:16.worked hard, their lines were precise and they seemed to know

:21:16. > :21:24.exactly where they were heading that boat towards. Tight under the

:21:24. > :21:34.up stream gate here as gate nine. That is 3.29 seconds ahead of

:21:34. > :21:34.

:21:34. > :21:43.anybody. Florence and Hounslow have showed them what a classy pair they

:21:43. > :21:49.really are. Wonderful moment to join their team-mates, at the top

:21:49. > :21:54.of the table. Let us wish them well. Tim Baillie at the front. Etienne

:21:54. > :21:57.Stott in the centre, they were bronze medallist at the European

:21:57. > :22:01.Championships and fourth at the worlds. They have been consistent

:22:02. > :22:08.over the last 12 months. They are ranked six in the world, so they

:22:08. > :22:10.deserve their place in this semifinal. So far looking smooth as

:22:10. > :22:15.they work together through the first section of the course. We

:22:15. > :22:19.want to see them roll their boat on the wave at gate seven and keep as

:22:19. > :22:25.direct line as possible into eight. It is looking good so far. They are

:22:25. > :22:29.up on David and Richard's split. Dropped a bit low into gate nine.

:22:29. > :22:33.They will push hard to keep as tight as spin as possible, as

:22:33. > :22:37.little time is spend there, they are paddling hard to get across the

:22:37. > :22:42.river and get the momentum going, they have found themselves stuck

:22:42. > :22:46.sideways, this is costing them precious bits of time. That was

:22:46. > :22:53.very skilful, wasn't it, to keep their cool, and reverse through

:22:53. > :22:59.that gate. How much difference has that made to their progress down

:22:59. > :23:04.the court course,? They they might be guaranteed a place in the final

:23:04. > :23:10.if they beat another pair. There was the split time of Florence and

:23:10. > :23:17.Hounslow. They have lost time, how much? It is not too bad. The

:23:17. > :23:22.difference between the others was only 0.8 of a second. A nice spin

:23:22. > :23:27.on 18. They are tight into 19 too. They have to make sure they hold on,

:23:27. > :23:31.keep their composure after the last few gates on the course, they set

:23:31. > :23:37.the angle on the canoe as they come into gate 21. They are back out.

:23:37. > :23:43.Two more gates to go. Will the London factor, the home crowd make

:23:43. > :23:53.a difference? The poles were flying at this -- Poles were flying at

:23:53. > :23:55.

:23:55. > :23:59.this point. They are in third place. My goodness, well, that does

:24:00. > :24:05.confirm them with a place in the final. So can you believe it? We

:24:05. > :24:11.are going to have plenty to cheer here in a couple of hours time. Two

:24:11. > :24:15.C2 crews from Great Britain, in the Olympic final. It demonstrates such

:24:15. > :24:18.maturity when that mistake happened when they found themselves going

:24:18. > :24:23.backwards, they kept their cool and made sure they got themselves back

:24:23. > :24:26.on track because mistakes happen here in canoe slalom. It is about

:24:26. > :24:30.how you deal with them. Can you deal with them in a way you can

:24:30. > :24:35.keep your moment up the and get back into a qualifying run.

:24:35. > :24:40.three crews to go, but it does not make any difference to Tim Baillie

:24:40. > :24:46.and Etienne Stott, they are safely in the final. So, both British

:24:46. > :24:53.crews into the final, but what about those fun loving boys from

:24:53. > :24:59.Bratislava, the 32-year-old twins? They have won almost half of their

:24:59. > :25:04.country's gold medal haul since Slovakia gained independence, 5.5

:25:04. > :25:09.million people expect a fourth gold. No pressure, this was a good run

:25:09. > :25:13.and this pair were the the quickest of all, but, two penalty, after

:25:13. > :25:17.touching a gate. Not sure whether it was up stream or downstream. We

:25:17. > :25:22.will be able to see. Crossing the line, so they qualified second

:25:22. > :25:27.behind Florence and Hounslow, so this is how it looked. The top six

:25:28. > :25:37.go through to that final which takes place about 3.15 and it is

:25:37. > :25:41.great to see the Britons at the top of the pile. A great crowd at the

:25:41. > :25:46.LeeValley centre will be delighted with that. As I say, 3.15 roughly

:25:46. > :25:50.is when we will go back to that. We are building up to the Judo shortly

:25:50. > :25:55.but before we go there let us get a quick catch up with events in

:25:55. > :25:59.Weymouth. Shirley, it has been a Weymouth. Shirley, it has been a

:25:59. > :26:09.very eventful down there. Not least in the fin class. Ben Ainslie, has

:26:09. > :26:12.

:26:12. > :26:15.the tide turned we wonder? She is having a few problems hearing us.

:26:15. > :26:19.great start for Big Ben, the first race of the day, he dominated it.

:26:19. > :26:24.He led from the start, he controlled it all the way round and

:26:24. > :26:29.won the race. Perhaps also, more interestingly, the Danish sailor,

:26:29. > :26:37.the big Danish sailor that has been ahead of him for all six races,

:26:37. > :26:43.capsized. So, great news for Ben Ainslie, he is in his second race.

:26:43. > :26:47.A win in the first race today for the star sailor, they are behind me.

:26:47. > :26:52.Good news in the 470 men. It is their opening day and they finished

:26:52. > :26:58.with two seconds. In the 49er class, they had a second and a first, so a

:26:58. > :27:03.great day for British supporters. Yes, I think you must be sponsored

:27:03. > :27:13.by a leading brand of seasickness pills. It looks very choppy. What

:27:13. > :27:15.

:27:15. > :27:19.for you has been the stand out performance this morning?

:27:19. > :27:23.obviously have a few problems with Shirley. I am not surprised he has

:27:23. > :27:27.been on the water for hours and hours, rather her than me! It is

:27:27. > :27:32.going down well in Weymouth. I am sure someone who can hear sus on

:27:32. > :27:38.dry land. Jonathan Edwards is at the Lee Valley Whitewater Centre

:27:38. > :27:41.and I am sure great reaction to that semifinal down there Jonathan?

:27:41. > :27:45.David Florence and Richard Hounslow alongside me after that brilliant

:27:45. > :27:53.run. David, let me dom you first. What is the main emotion, relief,

:27:53. > :27:59.excitement? Almost neither, just yet. We are pleased to be through,

:27:59. > :28:02.but just staying focused. All we were doing was focusing on our run,

:28:02. > :28:07.either way, we didn't want to treat it like that, what we had to beat,

:28:07. > :28:10.we had to put in a good run for u and you know, things didn't go

:28:10. > :28:14.perfectly but we kept focused and we pushed on and tried to get back

:28:14. > :28:19.on line the whole way and we are pleased with that, and looking to

:28:19. > :28:25.do the same again. In is only half a job done. Yes, not even half a

:28:25. > :28:29.job. Once you get into the final, it is back to zero, so, yeah, like

:28:29. > :28:34.David said we will go back, there is a few bits we need to work on, a

:28:34. > :28:39.bit sketchy off the start, but you know, we held it together, any time

:28:39. > :28:46.we were tight on things, we just were composed, and sorted ourselves

:28:46. > :28:49.out and put in a nice solid run to get through the finals. Sound good.

:28:49. > :28:53.Immense courage, strength of character, go away and get ready

:28:53. > :28:59.for the final. Thank you very much. Great stuff. Saz u -- as you say it

:28:59. > :29:02.is about 3.15. Jonathan can join us live. I am sure great excitement.

:29:02. > :29:06.The reaction from some of the Slovakian fan, it is a shock to the

:29:06. > :29:14.system to see the boys beaten there. Certainly was, you know, three

:29:14. > :29:16.Olympic titles in a row, going for their fourth. They did have an

:29:16. > :29:20.early penalty. Nonetheless, you wouldn't bet against them when it

:29:20. > :29:24.comes to the final. But David Florence and Richard Hounslow have

:29:24. > :29:28.shown incredible strength of character. I interviewed them after

:29:28. > :29:32.the semifinals of the K1 and C1. They were devastated. They didn't

:29:32. > :29:36.know what to say or do. It wasn't what they dreamed of. They had been

:29:36. > :29:39.training here for the last 18 months so to turn it round in the

:29:39. > :29:44.way they did, they deserve immense praise, they are right in there

:29:44. > :29:47.with a chance. They R just explain to us what happens now, I believe

:29:47. > :29:51.the slate is wiped clean and we start again for the final. That is

:29:51. > :29:56.right. They go in reverse order, depending on how fast or slow they

:29:56. > :30:01.went in that semifinal. So David Florence and Richard Hounslow will

:30:01. > :30:05.go off last. Etienne Stott and Tim Baillie will go off first. It is

:30:05. > :30:08.hard to tpwhee the most favourable draw is. They probably prefer not

:30:08. > :30:12.to go last, but any way, the guys can take the confidence from the

:30:12. > :30:16.fact they are the fastest in the semifinals but they start from

:30:17. > :30:21.scratch. Looking forward to it. Thank you. We are billing up to the

:30:21. > :30:26.judo, with Gemma Gibbons going in the semifinal of her division, 78

:30:26. > :30:30.kilos shortly. Before we do, if you haven't seen this, certainly worth

:30:30. > :30:35.watching again. Without question, the best race of the rowing regatta

:30:35. > :30:40.so far. It is the lightweight men's four and our four, reminding us the

:30:40. > :30:43.Great Britain team is Great Britain and Northern Ireland team. The

:30:43. > :30:53.Chambers brothers from Coleraine are prominent members of the team.

:30:53. > :31:05.

:31:05. > :31:12.Let us show you how this one ended strokes remain. Denmark, Australia

:31:12. > :31:18.and Great Britain. The Danes have led right from the first stroke. We

:31:18. > :31:25.are now in danger zone. Chris Bartley brings his meant right up

:31:25. > :31:34.on to the boil. There will be met by a wall of noise from the British

:31:34. > :31:44.crowd. South Africa coming up as well. This is a tough event. That

:31:44. > :31:44.

:31:44. > :31:49.wall of sound has got to drive them on. Can they make it?

:31:49. > :31:59.Surely there are now looking for stronger. One big push. The crowd

:31:59. > :31:59.

:32:00. > :32:09.are on their feet. They are just into second place. They are moving.

:32:10. > :32:10.

:32:10. > :32:17.As the Danes have responded well DUP --. It is going to the wire.

:32:17. > :32:24.They're not going to make it. Denmark had moved out again. South

:32:24. > :32:28.Africa sneaking ahead of the Danes. Here come the British, they are not

:32:28. > :32:33.going to do it. South Africa are the Olympic champions. And we have

:32:33. > :32:41.to wait for the confirmation. Great Britain get the silver and Denmark

:32:41. > :32:45.get the bronze. It was a valiant effort. It is jubilation in of the

:32:45. > :32:51.South African boat. And a little bit of disappointment for the

:32:51. > :32:57.silver medal. A worthy silver medal for Great Britain. They gave

:32:57. > :33:00.absolutely everything to date for themselves, for the team and for

:33:00. > :33:06.themselves, for the team and for Great Britain.

:33:07. > :33:14.Da UN on water's edge, what are we thinking? That was brutal, really

:33:14. > :33:18.brutal. We were just fighting through the whole lot. Just to get

:33:18. > :33:24.ourselves back in contention. We did a cracking job would just not

:33:24. > :33:33.good enough to get the gold. To even get as Silva was impressive

:33:33. > :33:38.from where we came from. We were just struggling to keep pace. We

:33:38. > :33:46.just dug our heels in and fought really hard. Tell us about the

:33:46. > :33:55.first 500m or so? I think we did a reasonable job, we

:33:55. > :34:02.were bounced around quite a lot. It is a tough event. We wanted to

:34:02. > :34:10.win. As silver is fantastic, it is a medal at the Olympics. And you

:34:10. > :34:16.have seen the event. In terms of the race, as a dramatic spectacle,

:34:16. > :34:22.it is the best we have seen so far at this regatta. We you drinking in

:34:22. > :34:27.the last July 0150 or so, if we can get past the Danes we can do it,

:34:27. > :34:36.almost as if you're blind decided by the South Africans? Not really.

:34:36. > :34:42.It was just about putting their head down and going for it.

:34:42. > :34:45.It was just trying to get the blade in it and get on with it. I'm sure

:34:46. > :34:54.everyone in Northern Ireland and Coleraine Road will be unbelievably

:34:54. > :35:04.proud of you. We will be speaking about this at length. How do you

:35:04. > :35:07.

:35:07. > :35:13.feel about silver medal he now? We wanted to win, but we have to be

:35:13. > :35:18.happy to get a medal. It is a home Olympic Games and we're silver

:35:18. > :35:22.medallists, it is not terrible. It is a shame we did not win but we

:35:23. > :35:32.did everything we could and these things happen. Thank you very much

:37:23. > :37:31.Not long before the 20 from it -- the 24 year-old Gemma Gibbons plays

:37:31. > :37:41.in the judo final. Let us take a look at this pretty difficult sport

:37:41. > :37:45.

:37:45. > :37:54.look at this pretty difficult sport The playing area is a foam covered

:37:54. > :37:59.mat. The referee remains in the combat area throughout the contest.

:37:59. > :38:09.To external judges stay outside to come from the decisions of the

:38:09. > :38:11.

:38:11. > :38:21.referee if necessary. A variety of techniques are used. Including

:38:21. > :38:37.

:38:37. > :38:47.ippon and yuko. An ippon secures immediate victory. Waza-ari

:38:47. > :38:52.

:38:52. > :38:59.culminates in an opponent being thrown on their back. A yuko is

:38:59. > :39:07.when an opponent does not land on their back. Gemma Gibbons just

:39:07. > :39:16.getting prepared now. The last Olympic medal for judo gained 12

:39:16. > :39:24.years ago for Kate Howey. This is an absolutely supreme effort to

:39:24. > :39:31.have got this far. Our fingers are crossed as she takes on her French

:39:31. > :39:38.opponent. Her mother played handball from

:39:38. > :39:48.Cameroon, a very sporting family her opponent comes from. And we

:39:48. > :39:52.

:39:52. > :40:00.her opponent comes from. And we features a Brazilian and an

:40:00. > :40:06.American. The Brazilian came into the Games as the world number one.

:40:06. > :40:11.The American, Kayla Harrison, 22 years of age.

:40:11. > :40:21.The Brazilian it is the top seed, having won the last Grand Prix

:40:21. > :40:24.

:40:24. > :40:30.before these games. The Paris Grand Slam.

:40:30. > :40:40.She also beat Kayla Harrison that day. And the American is now on the

:40:40. > :40:53.

:40:53. > :41:03.gold. She goes to sleep every night apparently imagined that it might

:41:03. > :41:06.

:41:06. > :41:16.be her. She is a fantastic fighter, so powerful. She has great hip

:41:16. > :41:44.

:41:44. > :41:54.throws. These are two of the best are names in the semi-final you

:41:54. > :42:03.

:42:03. > :42:13.for it. The prison in blocking. Harrison is two times national

:42:13. > :42:22.

:42:22. > :42:32.years for the way he treated her. She apparently contemplated suicide.

:42:32. > :42:33.

:42:33. > :42:38.She claims her current coach came in and saved her life. And looking

:42:38. > :42:46.to do the greatest thing possible if you're an athlete, potentially

:42:46. > :42:56.to win an Olympic gold medal. Kerridge both on and off the mat. -

:42:56. > :43:25.

:43:25. > :43:30.it their instructions during those great names. The Brazilian coach

:43:30. > :43:40.probably does not need a mobile phone to contact her friends back

:43:40. > :43:40.

:43:40. > :43:50.home! The winner will be in the Olympic

:43:50. > :44:01.

:44:01. > :44:09.watch, she is fast and light on her feet.

:44:09. > :44:14.Locked into this one-handed grip again.

:44:14. > :44:24.Looking for the sleeve and at the same time looking to see what your

:44:24. > :44:26.

:44:26. > :44:34.opponent's hand is up to as well. That was close for the American.

:44:34. > :44:44.It really is a battle for the grip. It you feel you're at a

:44:44. > :44:50.

:44:50. > :44:54.disadvantage then you have got to break out.

:44:54. > :45:04.David Cameron is one of the spectators today as his Vladimir

:45:04. > :45:18.

:45:18. > :45:26.Putin, who is a black belts. A big risk getting countered. Every seat

:45:26. > :45:32.has been sold out here, every session. This vast exhibition and

:45:32. > :45:37.Conference Centre. Five different halls, hosting all those different

:45:37. > :45:43.sports. One of them judo. A big o goshi and Harrison turns it back.

:45:43. > :45:48.Takes her down for the yuko so she is ahead by the smallest score, a

:45:48. > :45:53.yuko. Now she is on the arm. She won with this technique earlier

:45:53. > :46:02.today. She is looking to get the roll and roll her on to the back.

:46:02. > :46:09.The referee calling mate. Brilliant timing, catches the leg, drives the

:46:09. > :46:16.Brazilian back. The 22-year-old American who has gone through some

:46:16. > :46:21.of the most unimaginable things that life can offer her so far,.

:46:22. > :46:26.Again on the ground, looking for the arm. The referee will give them

:46:26. > :46:32.time on the ground, while the action is going on. The Brazilian

:46:32. > :46:36.looking up, trying to get the break. 25 seconds to go. I am not sure

:46:36. > :46:44.where you go if you are in sixth gear as the coach. The Brazilian is

:46:44. > :46:48.trying to find it. Her charge needs to as well. Aguiar, she came in as

:46:48. > :46:57.the top seed. Unless she gets her skates on she is losing, she has

:46:57. > :47:03.lost. American judo, whatever happens in the final, will be able

:47:03. > :47:07.to celebrate just its second ever medal in the women's division, and

:47:07. > :47:17.Kayla Harrison who when she comes to write the book will have some

:47:17. > :47:24.

:47:24. > :47:28.story to tell, will go for gold in American, from first thing this

:47:28. > :47:36.morning, jemmy Pedro the coach saying to her, there is nobody here

:47:36. > :47:39.can beet you. -- Jimi. The girl from New York will very shortly be

:47:40. > :47:49.going for Olympic Gold. Jimmy Pedro, such a great motivator, Americans

:47:50. > :48:09.

:48:09. > :48:14.chance of shooting for a bronze medal. Let us hope if she does, she

:48:14. > :48:19.doesn't drop it in the shower did like another athlete did. He

:48:19. > :48:24.cracked his. Aguiar will have a go for bronze shortly. We know one of

:48:24. > :48:34.the finalist, it is the American Kayla Harrison. Jimmy Pedro does

:48:34. > :48:35.

:48:35. > :48:39.his nut and she does likewise. But it is time now, for the ExCel

:48:39. > :48:45.centre. It has been buesmly supported by judo enthusiasts from

:48:45. > :48:52.all over the world. But for once and for the first time this week,

:48:52. > :48:57.it is largely about Britain. Sport. Sports have headlines over the last

:48:57. > :49:03.24-hour, that if they could have rubbed out they would have done.

:49:03. > :49:07.British judo has not known anything like this for 12 years. There is

:49:07. > :49:12.her opponent Audrey Tcheumeo. The World Champion from France. The 21-

:49:12. > :49:17.year-old, one of the most exciting talents in judo. 12 years since

:49:17. > :49:23.Kate Howey fought in her semifinal in Sydney and she walks out behind

:49:23. > :49:28.the girl who is looking to supersede her now. She will be mat

:49:29. > :49:31.side and Gemma Gibbons attempts to bridge that gab of a dozen years, -

:49:32. > :49:36.- gap, somebody who lives on the other side of the Thames from here

:49:36. > :49:42.at the ExCel. The other side of the Blackwall Tunnel, or the other side

:49:42. > :49:46.of the cable car, if you want to do it with a bit of a view. But it is

:49:46. > :49:54.hard to imagine how much tougher it could be for Gibbons. Let us hear

:49:54. > :49:57.the roar. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Tcheumeo the World Champion after

:49:57. > :50:06.winling gold on her home mat. She has come to London as the third

:50:07. > :50:10.seed. She ended the raid of the defending champion Zhang Li. She is

:50:10. > :50:15.all that stands between Gemma Gibbons and a place in Olympic

:50:15. > :50:20.history. The women's semifinal. Audrey Tcheumeo in blue. Gemma

:50:20. > :50:24.Gibbons, the 25yeerl from Greenwich, in white. Gemma has been brilliant

:50:24. > :50:30.today, but now she has to put all those rounds behind her, this is

:50:30. > :50:40.the fight that matters. Se has been fighting brilliantly. Lovely

:50:40. > :50:46.

:50:46. > :50:56.attacking style of Judo. She is minute. Gemma will want to slow her

:50:56. > :51:00.

:51:00. > :51:10.of a medal. She will fight for gold or silver. If she loses she still

:51:10. > :51:19.

:51:19. > :51:26.might end up with a bronze. She These two fought earlier this year,

:51:26. > :51:36.and it just ended on one to two so it is possible. It is conceiveable

:51:36. > :51:53.

:51:53. > :51:56.the area. The referee calling mate. I know there are fabulous personal

:51:56. > :52:01.stories all over, but Gemma Gibbons introduced to the sport when her

:52:01. > :52:04.mum took her along to the local metro Judo club when she was just

:52:04. > :52:08.six, for as long as she can remember, her mum was there, her

:52:08. > :52:12.biggest fan and inspiration, it is all she wanted to be, was be this,

:52:12. > :52:17.an Olympian, her mum sadly isn't here to see itment she died a few

:52:17. > :52:20.years ago. But her daughter is now an Olympian. I wonder if her mum

:52:20. > :52:30.ever thought she would be fighting for a place in the Olympic final.

:52:30. > :52:33.She is now. Getting her leg in. Tcheumeo gets the hips in. You are

:52:33. > :52:40.a split second, when you land your grip, you have to the attack

:52:40. > :52:43.instinctively. That is that fear some thing, you can seem to be on

:52:43. > :52:47.the attack, the one hunting for glory and suddenly you are on your

:52:48. > :52:55.own backside. It can turn in an instant, with the counters. It is

:52:55. > :53:05.all about a waiting game. Waiting for the moment. Getting it right.

:53:05. > :53:06.

:53:06. > :53:13.Gemma, she has the sleeve now. Tcheumeo gets the first attack in.

:53:13. > :53:17.French have had a long love affair with this sport. Major stars back

:53:17. > :53:23.home, over 500,000 French play regular alreadyly, most of more and

:53:23. > :53:27.will be on the edge of their seats right now. They have had five judo

:53:27. > :53:33.medals to cheer this week. Have they not had enough? Can they not

:53:33. > :53:41.give Great Britain a chance? Five for goodness sake! Gemma needs to

:53:41. > :53:44.get that grip off her head. Does well there getting the hips in.

:53:44. > :53:48.you are uncomfortable in the grip, you need to break out quickly,

:53:48. > :53:58.otherwise you risk getting thrown. She did a good job there, getting

:53:58. > :54:01.

:54:01. > :54:07.the hips across and breaking the Howey saying that, as soon as you

:54:07. > :54:12.get on the grip, attack. You can't wait, she is saying as soon as you

:54:12. > :54:17.get hole of the sleeve, throw your leg in at the same time. -- hold.

:54:17. > :54:21.Fvingsfrpblgts you wait you give your opponent time to defend.

:54:21. > :54:24.wonder which was tougher, the Olympic semifinal she fought 12

:54:24. > :54:33.years ago on or the one she is involved in sitting on her chair?

:54:33. > :54:37.Yeah. Very little she can do the eaffect this one. Tcheumeo in the

:54:37. > :54:47.blue, Gemma Gibbons in the white as we approach the half way point of

:54:47. > :54:55.

:54:55. > :55:01.first. Right on the edge of the area. She is waiting. Tcheumeo

:55:01. > :55:05.dropping down to her knees to get out of trouble. One of the issues

:55:05. > :55:10.for Gibbons is when she gets in that position, you can see that she

:55:10. > :55:15.is afraid of what the French woman might throw at her as she tries to

:55:15. > :55:20.dislodge. There is only a split second in it, and it is, waiting

:55:20. > :55:26.for the right moment. But again, Tcheumeo dropping down. You have to

:55:26. > :55:30.move your opponent, with the attack, if you drop to your knees that is a

:55:30. > :55:34.penalty. Referee might be giving that serious thought. Not on this

:55:34. > :55:38.occasion, but the French woman, the World Champion, let us not forget,

:55:38. > :55:46.is treading a fine line here. last minute and Gemma pushing

:55:46. > :55:56.forward. She has a bit round the waist. She goes for the take back.

:55:56. > :56:00.

:56:00. > :56:04.And this is good. The last two strongly. But hen she will fade

:56:04. > :56:14.into the last part of the fight. Gemma knows that and she will be

:56:14. > :56:23.

:56:23. > :56:26.while since a nation was so concerned about the right leg of a

:56:26. > :56:33.French woman but every time Gemma Gibbons goes forward you are aware

:56:33. > :56:37.that is spitting out with poison. On the end of it. Gibbons is doing

:56:37. > :56:42.so well. She is trying to dictate the fight again. And again, again

:56:42. > :56:52.the French fighter dropping down without moving her opponent. Gemma

:56:52. > :56:53.

:56:53. > :57:03.Gibbons needing to make sure she gets her own attacks in. That is

:57:03. > :57:15.

:57:15. > :57:25.really important that Gibbons does regulation time in this semifinal.

:57:25. > :57:30.

:57:30. > :57:36.Mate called as the fight goes medal since Barcelona 1992. That is

:59:08. > :59:15.World Champion, the current World Champion here. Doing so well. 20

:59:25. > :59:32.

:59:32. > :59:37.just turning out. The throw started within the area, it would have

:59:37. > :59:47.counted. The French fighter managing to turn out on to her

:00:04. > :00:14.most encouraged? I think Gemma Gibbons and did that so well with

:00:14. > :00:24.that last attack. The French woman starting to job to

:01:42. > :01:48.you have to keep thinking even though you're so tired. So close!

:03:45. > :03:54.lot left in the tank. -- telling bridge has been broken in glorious

:03:54. > :04:04.fashion! It has been a dozen years since a British judo player has

:04:04. > :04:06.

:04:06. > :04:16.been able to do that. She is into the final. She has just

:04:16. > :04:22.

:04:22. > :04:27.beaten the world champion. The British women continued to

:04:27. > :04:32.provide brilliant medal moments at these Olympics. And there is still

:04:32. > :04:42.one more fight to go but she deserves to enjoy this moment.

:04:42. > :04:46.

:04:46. > :04:54.has just had the victory of her career. Fantastic judo, spectacular.

:04:54. > :05:04.She goes for it. She gets in front and what a brilliant throw. An

:05:04. > :05:06.

:05:06. > :05:10.ippon. An emphatic ippon. British judo has travelled all around the

:05:10. > :05:15.world, to Athens, to Beijing, looking for somebody to succeed

:05:15. > :05:20.Kate Howey way. The girl they needed to find was living on the

:05:20. > :05:30.other side of the Thames from where she has just secured her place in

:05:30. > :05:33.

:05:33. > :05:38.the Olympic final. After all the headlines, the squad being

:05:38. > :05:46.criticised so publicly, just put that into perspective? I think that

:05:46. > :05:52.has put it into perspective. Gemma Gibbons has just done that. That

:05:52. > :05:56.was the best performance of the tournament. British judo has an

:05:56. > :06:01.tournament. British judo has an Olympic finalist!

:06:01. > :06:05.It is as silver for now but of course Gemma Gibbons gets the

:06:05. > :06:14.chance to fight for the gold medal against Kayla Harrison of the

:06:14. > :06:19.United States. We are not quite sure when that will be exactly. But

:06:19. > :06:29.fantastic scenes down there and it has been along time coming. British

:06:29. > :06:30.

:06:31. > :06:37.judo has been in the doldrums. It was only one medal before that

:06:37. > :06:42.and a huge relief for all judo players in the country. Peter

:06:42. > :06:52.Wilson going in about seven or eight minutes time in the double

:06:52. > :06:53.

:06:53. > :07:03.traps shooting. But just time to drop in now to another part of the

:07:03. > :07:05.

:07:05. > :07:12.ExCel Arena. Great British boxers brought home one medal in Beijing.

:07:12. > :07:19.The gold for James DeGale. Today Anthony Ogogo starts his bid to

:07:19. > :07:24.succeed James DeGale. He has had an huge leap up time just to be here

:07:24. > :07:29.after shoulder surgery. But he is a big time performer and he will have

:07:29. > :07:36.to be because he finds himself up against the reigning world champion

:07:36. > :07:42.against the reigning world champion from the Ukraine.

:07:42. > :07:47.The only person that matters here is Anthony Ogogo. Can he would

:07:47. > :07:57.stand what will be the three most torrid moments of his boxing

:07:57. > :07:57.

:07:57. > :08:04.career? A good left hand from Anthony Ogogo.

:08:04. > :08:14.He has to keep his opponent off balance. Just counter attack and

:08:14. > :08:16.

:08:17. > :08:26.try to push him back a little bit. How is his stamina going to last?

:08:27. > :08:28.

:08:28. > :08:36.Good right hand from Anthony Ogogo. And he has got him again.

:08:36. > :08:46.The lovely left hook round the corner. The judges could not have

:08:46. > :08:52.

:08:52. > :09:00.missed that one. Two and three shots, then moved the feet.

:09:00. > :09:06.Again Anthony Ogogo in first with that right hand. His opponent

:09:07. > :09:16.getting a little bit frustrated. That will give him just a few

:09:17. > :09:20.

:09:20. > :09:25.seconds rest and he needed that. Into the last half of what has been

:09:25. > :09:35.a pulsating contest. One of the best contests we have seen it so

:09:35. > :09:37.

:09:37. > :09:47.far. Anthony Ogogo must run. His opponent is not burn to let him of

:09:47. > :09:51.

:09:51. > :09:57.the book. He is caught again. One minute to go. Come on, Anthony,

:09:57. > :10:04.do not let this one slip. He is tiring and this machines from

:10:04. > :10:13.the Ukraine is coming storming forward.

:10:13. > :10:20.Keep him at bay. Keep him at bay and then it moved.

:10:20. > :10:25.What a racket, what a performance from Anthony Ogogo.

:10:25. > :10:35.And what has since agent this would be if he could hang on to win this.

:10:35. > :10:39.

:10:39. > :10:49.It is so close. -- sensation. He needs to score with a couple of

:10:49. > :10:57.

:10:57. > :11:07.shots. The Ukrainian coming forward. Good food work from Anthony Ogogo.

:11:07. > :11:07.

:11:07. > :11:13.And stabbing laughter from the Ukrainian. -- stabbing foot work.

:11:13. > :11:20.There is not very much in this. What a task for the judges. What a

:11:20. > :11:27.performance from Anthony Ogogo. Whatever happens, he has raised his

:11:27. > :11:37.status in world amateur boxing by leaked and bronze. -- leaps and

:11:37. > :11:41.bounds. His coaches very proud of their man.

:11:41. > :11:49.He put in a fantastic display against the best middleweight in

:11:49. > :11:54.the world. This Ukrainian boxer was relentless.

:11:54. > :12:00.This is where he just let himself down a little bit, staying on at

:12:01. > :12:09.the ropes for a split second too long. But a tremendous display of

:12:10. > :12:18.guts and courage. What a contest! What a performance

:12:18. > :12:28.from Anthony Ogogo. The crowd gathering their breath. Gathering

:12:28. > :12:29.

:12:29. > :12:39.their hopes. The Ukrainian reckons he has done enough in the last

:12:39. > :12:40.

:12:40. > :12:50.round. They've really are taking their time. I would not be

:12:50. > :12:51.

:12:52. > :12:56.surprised if this was scored level. They'd take the scores from all

:12:56. > :13:06.five judges and add them up. I think that is what the delay is

:13:06. > :13:14.

:13:14. > :13:24.going to be. It is a little bit frustrating for everyone. It is

:13:24. > :13:27.

:13:27. > :13:35.literally either way. It is so close. If he beats this fellow you

:13:35. > :13:45.would fancy Anthony Ogogo to go on and do what James DeGale did.

:13:45. > :13:47.

:13:47. > :13:52.I think it is going to go to cut back. -- count back. This is the

:13:53. > :14:01.most extraordinary drama that we have seen here in terms of waiting

:14:01. > :14:11.for the scorers. Has Anthony Ogogo been good enough

:14:11. > :14:13.

:14:13. > :14:20.to upset the world number one? Ladies and gentlemen, the judges

:14:20. > :14:30.have scored level and we go to count down.

:14:30. > :14:38.He has got it! He has beaten the world number one! They went to

:14:39. > :14:46.count back. The five judges are asked to dress either of the Red or

:14:46. > :14:55.the blue button and they have come out in favour of Anthony Ogogo!

:14:55. > :15:02.That is the upset of this tournament so far. That was for his

:15:02. > :15:12.dear mother. He has beaten the world champion. Anthony Ogogo, a

:15:12. > :15:13.

:15:13. > :15:17.What an afternoon for Anthony Ogogo and British sport. Eight a huge

:15:17. > :15:23.upset in the middleweight division. A fantastic effort from the man

:15:23. > :15:31.from Norfolk. Look at the seams down here. Six out of six for the

:15:31. > :15:34.British boxers so far -- look at the seams. As I has -- had said,

:15:35. > :15:40.I've got a good feeling. We have a guaranteed silver from a German

:15:40. > :15:46.Gibbons in the judo mat - Germaine Gibbons. And we might upgrade that

:15:46. > :15:52.because we are heading for the double trap shooting for the men.

:15:52. > :16:02.It was a goal for Richard Faulds, but all eyes are on Pippa Wilson.

:16:02. > :16:10.

:16:10. > :16:17.He qualified in -- on Pippa Wilson. qualification. -- Wilson. He is

:16:17. > :16:21.three shots clear of the field. The trio who took the gold, silver and

:16:21. > :16:26.bronze in Beijing have all failed to reach this final. They were

:16:26. > :16:33.expected to provide the sternest opposition, along with the world No.

:16:33. > :16:40.1 from the USA, but he also failed in the qualification, finishing in

:16:40. > :16:46.16th position. This is possibly, despite the fact he qualified in

:16:46. > :16:53.4th, probably the main danger to Wilson. But he has missed the

:16:53. > :17:00.target, one of these two targets early on. He shot impeccably this

:17:01. > :17:10.morning, certainly in the last stage against the Russian. Good

:17:11. > :17:19.

:17:19. > :17:23.shooting at from the Kuwaiti clay used -- the clays are

:17:23. > :17:28.travelling at 100 mph. There is a roar of approval from the crowd at

:17:28. > :17:38.the Royal Artillery Barracks because that was to out of two from

:17:38. > :18:07.

:18:07. > :18:13.Wilson with his first two targets. for him. Pippa Wilson is a great

:18:13. > :18:23.story. His UK funding was cut in 2009. He was working as a waiter in

:18:23. > :18:23.

:18:23. > :18:27.a pub before he was picked up a member -- by a member of the Royal

:18:27. > :18:33.Saudi Arabian family. After that he was looking to start a coaching

:18:33. > :18:43.career. But then at the two men combined, and they hope that the

:18:43. > :19:12.

:19:12. > :19:22.right, ends up on the left-hand side after falling on -- falling

:19:22. > :19:29.

:19:29. > :19:36.finalist here is by 13 years. Aside from the two Russians, the other

:19:36. > :19:43.competitors are old enough to be his father. He has missed both of

:19:43. > :19:53.them there, I think. A double red flag for the Kuwaiti shooter. So

:19:53. > :19:57.

:19:57. > :20:07.that is one of their closest But Peter Wilson is still in pole

:20:07. > :20:15.

:20:15. > :20:20.His score is now 149. If he gets 48 out of 50, he is certain of the

:20:20. > :20:30.gold, no matter what anyone else does in this final. And so far he

:20:30. > :20:52.

:20:52. > :21:02.qualification, a long way behind Peter Wilson. Almost uncatchable by

:21:02. > :21:24.

:21:24. > :21:32.Now up to 148. But providing he can keep making two out of two, Peter

:21:32. > :21:39.Wilson is keeping the other at arm's length. The man from

:21:39. > :21:44.Dorchester or, his first Olympics, but his world ranking is number two.

:21:44. > :21:49.He has really come to prominence in the last 12 months or so. He set a

:21:49. > :21:54.new Finals world record of 198 in Arizona at a World Cup event this

:21:54. > :21:58.year. He is one of the favourites coming into the competition. But he

:21:58. > :22:01.must have been surprised and delighted to see those that he

:22:01. > :22:11.probably thought were his main competitors for by the wayside in

:22:11. > :22:16.

:22:16. > :22:19.qualification. -- fall by the say I thought the Russian would be

:22:19. > :22:27.the main challenger to Peter Wilson but he has already missed a couple

:22:27. > :22:33.of targets in the opening two sets. The Kuwaiti has recovered his

:22:33. > :22:37.composure. That was after missing both targets a couple of rounds ago.

:22:37. > :22:41.A 100% record so far for the Russian, and that continues. So he

:22:41. > :22:51.is the man at the moment he was keeping up the pressure on Great

:22:51. > :23:30.

:23:30. > :23:34.missed one. He has missed one of the two there, so his lead is cut.

:23:34. > :23:38.Cut down to two points, although at the moment the computer is saying

:23:39. > :23:48.he has a three-shot lead. The main scoreboard says he has a two-shot

:23:49. > :23:59.

:23:59. > :24:03.lead. But I am pretty certain that by 13 years. He got into

:24:03. > :24:09.competitive shooting almost by accident, really. Although he did

:24:09. > :24:14.shoot from the age of eight, and really focused on it properly. When

:24:14. > :24:18.he was 13 he had a serious snowboarding injury which prevented

:24:18. > :24:26.him playing his two main lovers of cricket and squash. But he found

:24:26. > :24:31.himself to be a dab hand at shooting. He definitely did not hit

:24:31. > :24:41.the target with one of those previous two, so he's lead is cut

:24:41. > :25:07.

:25:07. > :25:13.has missed one. That opens the door for Peter Wilson to regain his

:25:13. > :25:23.three points advantage, and he does just that. 154 is the score for

:25:23. > :25:24.

:25:25. > :25:34.Peter Wilson. 151 for the Russian. 150 for the Kuwaiti. 149 for the

:25:35. > :25:40.

:25:40. > :25:50.Swede. The rest on one for eight. - of the two targets, so his court

:25:50. > :26:00.

:26:00. > :26:07.the men closest to Wilson that he must be wary of. Again, the Russian

:26:07. > :26:17.has missed the target and his score moves just on to the mark of 150.

:26:17. > :26:25.

:26:25. > :26:35.And his challenge is just petering within one of Wilson, but Wilson

:26:35. > :26:43.

:26:43. > :26:49.score. Four ahead of the Kuwaiti. At this stage, he is virtually

:26:49. > :26:54.guaranteed a medal, but he wants gold. So, of course, do the home

:26:54. > :27:01.nation, Great Britain, looking for a third gold medal of the Olympic

:27:01. > :27:06.Games. Restart the round again with the Hungarian. -- we start the

:27:06. > :27:16.round. He was a surprise qualifier in his first Olympics, at the age

:27:16. > :27:28.

:27:28. > :27:31.shot a maximum in the finals, but neither will do so today. Although

:27:31. > :27:40.he probably needed to if he was going to get into the gold medal

:27:40. > :27:50.position. The total needed for Wilson will have diminished now,

:27:50. > :27:52.

:27:52. > :27:57.because all the athletes have threat to Peter Wilson, who steps

:27:57. > :28:05.up to the centre point of the range. Excellent shooting again from

:28:05. > :28:15.Wilson, taking him to 158. And he is closing in, slowly but surely,

:28:15. > :28:15.

:28:15. > :28:58.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds

:28:58. > :29:06.particularly at the speeds they are is the Kuwaiti, shooting now, he

:29:06. > :29:14.was the chief -- who is the chief threat. The Russian her shot very

:29:14. > :29:21.well. And indeed throughout the competition. He continues out there.

:29:21. > :29:28.They were all for him, and an arm in the air, but Peter Russell

:29:28. > :29:32.Wilson takes his total up to 160, striking the targets twice.

:29:32. > :29:42.Remember, these targets are moving away all of the time, so only a

:29:42. > :29:59.

:29:59. > :30:04.limited time in double trap outdoor range. Parts of which in

:30:04. > :30:13.terms of the press areas is are Flooded because of the rains we had

:30:13. > :30:20.earlier. Turned into sunny afternoon. Wind speed fairly light,

:30:20. > :30:30.so good conditions for the men's double trap final here at the Royal

:30:30. > :30:39.

:30:39. > :30:42.Artillery Barracks. Aldeehani to 159. Wilson, 160. With these two

:30:42. > :30:51.targets still to come. He has missed one! He has missed the

:30:51. > :31:01.second there. So he moves on the 161 but his lead now has been cut,

:31:01. > :31:25.

:31:25. > :31:29.from three, to two. Over Mosin. And They were Firth and sixth plate

:31:29. > :31:35.qualifiers. They have been shooting pretty well. Dahlby is the only

:31:35. > :31:41.chuter with a 100 percent record in this final so far. Consequently, he

:31:41. > :31:51.is starting to move up the rankings in terms of the outsiders. Too far

:31:51. > :32:02.

:32:02. > :32:07.here, he ties with Peter Wilson. He is urging the crowd to give him a

:32:07. > :32:13.bit of support, but that is for long hope, because 90% of the

:32:13. > :32:23.audyns are rooting for Peter Wilson, who nervously hits both targets to

:32:23. > :32:48.

:32:48. > :32:53.continue with his two shot lead. who has lost his way just a little

:32:53. > :33:03.bit in the final. And he has missed another target there, missed the

:33:03. > :33:09.

:33:09. > :33:18.two clays as well. Just wondering if the pressure is getting to all

:33:18. > :33:23.the shooters. Not just the gold medal position of course, the

:33:23. > :33:28.medals up for grabs, the Russian again Mosin asking for the crowd

:33:28. > :33:38.support. Peter Wilson, you will hear the roar there, 165 now, for

:33:38. > :33:38.

:33:38. > :33:42.Peter Wilson. 163 for Mosin. And Aldeehani 161. Along with Dahlby.

:33:42. > :33:48.So Peter Wilson of Great Britain has a two shot lead, as we enter

:33:48. > :33:54.the closing stages now, of the men's double trap here at the Royal

:33:54. > :34:04.Artillery Barracks. Two shot lead over Mosin, and a four shot lead

:34:04. > :34:25.

:34:25. > :34:35.over Aldeehani and Dahlby, who is with two out of two. Aldeehani. --

:34:35. > :34:35.

:34:35. > :34:40.Fokeev. Split second between the two shots. Moss listen want to keep

:34:40. > :34:50.up the pressure here, on Peter Wilson of Great Britain. And his

:34:50. > :34:54.

:34:54. > :35:04.missed the second of the two clays there. So his lead now is cut to

:35:04. > :35:14.just the one point. Wilson on 166. Mosin on 165. Aldeehani 163 and

:35:14. > :35:21.

:35:21. > :35:25.Dahlby 162. Just a pause while we order of shoots never changes in

:36:10. > :36:15.appealing for support. I think he is wasting his time! This is man

:36:15. > :36:20.that virtually everybody wants to win, he shoots two out of two to

:36:20. > :36:30.maintain his advantage, so Wilson with 168. Mosin of Russia with 167.

:36:30. > :36:30.

:36:30. > :37:14.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds

:37:14. > :37:22.Aldeehani of Kuwait, 165 and Dahlby takes his score on to 167. Which is

:37:22. > :37:27.where Mosin starts. Just the first position right of centre. Two out

:37:27. > :37:35.of to for him. Momentarily. He goes into the lead with 169. Peter

:37:35. > :37:42.Wilson though, with two out of two. And he is now back in the lead, on

:37:42. > :37:50.170. We have 20 shots to go, in the men's double trap final. So Peter

:37:50. > :38:00.Wilson has a one shot lead, over Vasily Mosin, and a three shot lead

:38:00. > :38:29.

:38:29. > :38:33.over Aldeehani of queue wait. -- shooters but Aldeehani missed the

:38:33. > :38:38.second target there. This is Mosin. In second place, only a point

:38:38. > :38:42.behind Great Britain's Peter Wilson now. And he has missed. He has

:38:42. > :38:47.missed, with his second shot there, missed the second clay. And this

:38:47. > :38:54.gives Peter Wilson a chance to open up the lead again to two points and

:38:54. > :38:58.that is an opportunity that he has not wasted. So it's a two point

:38:58. > :39:07.lead again for Peter Wilson at the end of that round. 18 shots

:39:07. > :39:15.remaining. 172 to Wilson, 170 now to Mosin. Third, joint third

:39:15. > :39:25.Aldeehani and Dahlby, on 168. Bognar was one behind, hits two out

:39:25. > :39:50.

:39:50. > :39:56.certainly bronze, possibly silver, the Kuwaiti, now it is Mosin, still

:39:56. > :40:02.the closest challenger to Wilson, and he has missed again. He missed

:40:02. > :40:07.with the first shot there. And Wilson makes his pay, because

:40:08. > :40:12.Wilson has got his lead back out to three again, we are back where we

:40:12. > :40:19.started. After qualification. Peter Wilson of Great Britain leads by

:40:19. > :40:25.three. But of course we are much closer now to the end of the men's

:40:25. > :40:35.double trap competition. Just 16 shots to go, and a three point lead

:40:35. > :41:12.

:41:12. > :41:22.for the home favourite Peter Wilson score up to 172. Mosin has missed

:41:22. > :41:28.

:41:28. > :41:38.with two of his last three shots. to feel the pressure too. A bit of

:41:38. > :41:49.

:41:49. > :41:56.only one behind, but Peter Wilson had the two shots in hand, two out

:41:56. > :42:06.of two, 14 shots to go. He is 14 shots from a gold medal, or

:42:06. > :42:36.

:42:36. > :42:44.Bognar once more. Hungarian makes Fokeev of Russia now, shoots two

:42:44. > :42:54.out of two. And they will keep going like this, until they get to

:42:54. > :42:54.

:42:54. > :42:59.the 50 clays, only 14 shots to go. 12 om of them and Peter Wilson,

:42:59. > :43:05.just needs to keep hitting one both targets. One missed there by Mosin.

:43:05. > :43:14.And this could let him in again. And it has. He has opened up a four

:43:15. > :43:19.point lead now. Peter Wilson, 178, and Vasily Mosin one 17 -- 174, the

:43:19. > :43:24.same as Aldeehani of Kuwait. So it's a pour point lead for Peter

:43:24. > :43:30.Wilson and the shots are running out, and at the moment, it looks

:43:30. > :43:40.like Great Britain are going to win their third gold medal of the

:43:40. > :43:47.London 2012 Olympics. Bognar of Hungary shoots two out of two.

:43:47. > :43:54.Peter Wilson has just missed three so far, in this final. 48 would

:43:54. > :43:57.have guaranteed him gold. Just a maximum he the he can get is 47 but

:43:57. > :44:07.it doesn't matter as other people have missed as well. Aldeehani has

:44:07. > :44:24.

:44:24. > :44:28.missed four times. That is two out his score up to 176. He is two

:44:28. > :44:35.behind Wilson but Wilson has the two shots in hand and it is two out

:44:35. > :44:41.of two for Wilson, he is a maximum of ten shots away from the gold

:44:41. > :44:47.medal. Peter Wilson. He won the 2006 European junior Championships,

:44:47. > :44:50.having only started shooting competitively four months

:44:50. > :44:54.previously. Since then the last six years have been a tale of success

:44:54. > :45:04.for Peter Wilson but this would cap everything. Bognar has missed the

:45:04. > :45:10.

:45:10. > :45:15.second of the two targets there, very well in this final. The best

:45:15. > :45:19.shooter in the final, just missing one target, which might get him a

:45:19. > :45:24.monks below a ranking of medals but it will not get in the gold. But it

:45:24. > :45:32.will not get him the gold, because it has the name of Peter Robert

:45:32. > :45:40.Russell Wilson of Great Britain on it. 10 shots are left for Mosin of

:45:40. > :45:46.Russia and Wilson of Great Britain. And a four shot lead. Cut down to

:45:46. > :45:53.two, but they are in hand for Wilson. And he has missed them

:45:53. > :46:01.both! He has missed them both! Absolutely incredible. His lead has

:46:01. > :46:08.been cut from four to two, half in jest that set of shops. -- in just

:46:08. > :46:12.that set of shots. He must be feeling the pressure. Most

:46:12. > :46:22.uncharacteristic. A wry shake of the head of a camera from Pippa

:46:22. > :46:48.

:46:48. > :46:57.Wilson. Bognar has missed the trying to chase Peter Wilson. He is

:46:57. > :47:03.level with him now. Wilson has two shots in hand. That is after Mosin

:47:03. > :47:11.and Wilson have shot here. Then it will just be six shots remaining.

:47:11. > :47:17.And Mosin has missed one. Vassily Mosin has missed. This is where he

:47:17. > :47:21.needs to step up to the plate, and he has done! Peter Wilson, two out

:47:21. > :47:26.of two. It is spectacular when you hit the middle. All of the powder

:47:26. > :47:33.coming out of the clay, and the expectant galleries now know he is

:47:33. > :47:40.closing in on a gold medal for Great Britain. It is Aldeehani of

:47:40. > :47:44.Kuwait in second position. He is ranked No. 12 and the world. -- in

:47:44. > :47:51.the world. I am sure he is pleased to just reach the final, but now he

:47:51. > :47:58.is the man, the main man, in terms of chasing down Peter Wilson. Only

:47:58. > :48:08.six shots remaining. And his lead over Aldeehani is two, the lead

:48:08. > :48:25.

:48:25. > :48:33.been excellent in this final, by the way. Just one target missed.

:48:33. > :48:39.Fokeev, two out of two for the Russian. The Kuwaiti, Aldeehani, is

:48:39. > :48:49.Peter Wilson's closest challenger, just two behind him. He takes a

:48:49. > :48:53.

:48:53. > :49:00.these are the first two. And he has missed! He has missed with the

:49:00. > :49:10.first one. That helps Peter Wilson's caused no end. Vassily

:49:10. > :49:11.

:49:11. > :49:18.Mosin, on at 179. He hits both and is up to 181, but as it is,

:49:18. > :49:24.Aldeehani, can Peter Wilson open up an advantage? 184. He is three in

:49:24. > :49:34.the lead over those two, but only two in the lead over Dahlby. But

:49:34. > :49:35.

:49:35. > :49:45.very few shops remaining. -- shots. Just four to go. Peter Wilson's

:49:45. > :49:53.

:49:53. > :50:03.His total is 180 with two to go. This man is now the main threat to

:50:03. > :50:04.

:50:04. > :50:10.Peter Wilson. Dahlby of Sweden. He has missed just once in the final.

:50:10. > :50:18.And he maintains the pressure on Wilson, because he goes to 184, the

:50:18. > :50:28.same as Wilson. But Wilson has two shots in hand. Dahlby with just two

:50:28. > :50:40.

:50:40. > :50:46.is Mosin of Russia. But the bottom line is that if Peter Wilson hits

:50:46. > :50:54.both here, he cannot lose in this final. And that he's an almighty

:50:54. > :51:01.roar going up! He hasn't won it yet, not quite, because macro darts --

:51:01. > :51:06.Dahlby hits both targets, and Wilson misses both, it would go to

:51:06. > :51:12.a shoot off. This is the last round of the men's double trap as the

:51:12. > :51:17.sunshine breaks out at the Royal Artillery Barracks and Great

:51:17. > :51:23.Britain stand on the edge of a gold medal at their home Olympics. This

:51:23. > :51:29.is Dahlby. If he misses either of these... But he hasn't. He is up to

:51:29. > :51:39.186, the same score as Wilson. Now it is a Fokeev of Russia, he is too

:51:39. > :51:50.

:51:50. > :51:55.far behind. What he does here does up to 185. Mosin, two would take

:51:55. > :52:01.him up to 185, and he has got them, but Peter Wilson needs these

:52:01. > :52:07.targets to win gold for Great Britain. And he does it! Peter

:52:07. > :52:10.Wilson has done it! He has won gold. He sinks to his knees. He has won

:52:10. > :52:15.gold for Great Britain, the third gold medal of the game for the host

:52:15. > :52:20.nation. He held his nerve brilliantly, Peter Wilson, and the

:52:20. > :52:26.crowd here at the Royal Artillery Barracks rise to salute this 25-

:52:26. > :52:31.year-old from Dorset. Olympic gold in the men's double trap at the age

:52:31. > :52:36.of just 25. He is a giant of a man, six foot six inches tall. You

:52:37. > :52:44.almost feel at times he could touch out and reached the clays. He has

:52:44. > :52:50.such a height advantage. Delight for Great Britain. Another gold,

:52:51. > :53:00.and well done to Peter Wilson. His full name is up there, Peter Robert,

:53:01. > :53:06.

:53:06. > :53:09.Dahlby, and Vassily Mosin will go into weight shoot-out with

:53:09. > :53:15.Aldeehani of Kuwait -- into a shoot-out. So there will still be

:53:15. > :53:25.some more drama to come here at the Royal Artillery Barracks. Peter

:53:25. > :53:34.Wilson has won gold for Great 5th sensational victory for Peter

:53:34. > :53:38.Wilson, and the final was full of suspense. The 25-year-old son of a

:53:38. > :53:43.Dorset farmer. He is trained by a Saudi prince who put all of his

:53:43. > :53:47.face and training in our shooter. An extraordinary story. We will get

:53:47. > :53:54.more reaction from Peter in a moment, but what her afternoon for

:53:54. > :54:00.British sport. We will be fighting for gold in the judo around 2pm,

:54:00. > :54:06.but there are two British pairs in the canoe slalom, very good medal

:54:06. > :54:16.chances. They were the 6th fastest of the qualifiers, and we will

:54:16. > :54:19.

:54:19. > :54:29.enjoy the final in the company of Bailey and Etty and start getting

:54:29. > :54:55.

:54:55. > :54:59.bronze medallist in the European Championships a couple of years ago.

:54:59. > :55:04.Ranked sixth in the world, coming into the the Olympic Games, they

:55:04. > :55:10.were always going to challenge, but this could be a medal run for Great

:55:10. > :55:17.Britain, just looking a bit slow there, getting through 13. Making

:55:17. > :55:23.it OK, without penalties, through 2 .14 and beyond, and Helen Reeves,

:55:23. > :55:28.you have joined me, this is an encouraging run from Baillie and

:55:28. > :55:32.stot. They will want to make sure they can maintain their speed. If

:55:32. > :55:36.they pick up any penalties. That is a fastest split, the second split

:55:36. > :55:40.they have had as they spin away from 18. This is one of the

:55:41. > :55:43.trickiest parts of the course. Up stream they go, through 19. Helen

:55:43. > :55:49.Reeves is nodding her approval. This is looking good for Great

:55:49. > :55:54.Britain. One up stream gate to go. Tight in and you see Etienne

:55:55. > :56:02.putting the power down as they turn about, back down, one gate to go.

:56:02. > :56:05.Great Britain are flying here, no penalties whatsoever. Bailey and

:56:05. > :56:11.stoth through the finish line -- Etienne Stott and that is the

:56:11. > :56:13.fastest time we have seen thon Olympic course so far in the C2

:56:13. > :56:17.Olympic course so far in the C2 competition. Absolutely brilliant.

:56:17. > :56:21.Fantastic start for the British pair, now the Chinese and the

:56:21. > :56:25.Polish pair who went next were slower, both incurred penaltys so

:56:25. > :56:28.three pairs remaining and among them David Florence and Richard

:56:29. > :56:35.Hounslow they qualified fastest, they will be going last. It is

:56:35. > :56:39.they will be going last. It is building up beautifully. Back we go.

:56:40. > :56:45.France have been talking about this pair for a long, long time. They

:56:45. > :56:52.were the fastest in the heat, still not as fast as Bailey and Etienne

:56:52. > :56:58.Stott. Nevertheless an accomplished pair indeed. They have got away to

:56:58. > :57:02.a start. They see them putting the power down, where they can, lifting

:57:03. > :57:06.the nose over the wave before gate eight. They rup on the split. As we

:57:06. > :57:10.know, and we have said so many times there is a lot of time to be

:57:11. > :57:18.lost in that middle section. They are going well for France, they are

:57:18. > :57:26.a bit stuck there, Helen. And the man at the front there, he is

:57:26. > :57:32.driving that boat forward. Good steering from Peche. The second

:57:32. > :57:36.split time will give us a good idea as to what is happening. Excellent

:57:36. > :57:40.execution of the last gate. Can they do the same on gate 16? They

:57:40. > :57:50.are in tight and they are away again. We are heading to the second

:57:50. > :57:52.

:57:52. > :57:56.be watching carefully. The French are 1.63 seconds ahead, but they

:57:56. > :58:03.did get stuck there. They were all over the place. They lost a bit of

:58:03. > :58:09.time, but still, the Frenchman at the front driving them forward.

:58:09. > :58:14.this is going to be tight. They need to keep this. The last part,

:58:14. > :58:17.because they have 82nd penalty. big cheer goes up from the

:58:17. > :58:24.grandstand, and you can blame them. This is all about Great Britain

:58:24. > :58:31.hanging on in their -- who can blame them? Tim Baillie and Etienne

:58:31. > :58:37.Stott have a medal for Great Britain. They are in second place,

:58:37. > :58:41.and they do not know whether they have won a medal. But Tim Baillie

:58:41. > :58:47.and Etienne Stott have won at least a bronze medal for the British team,

:58:47. > :58:54.their first medal. It might not be their last, you know, because we

:58:54. > :58:57.still have Richard Hounslow and David France at the start life. --

:58:57. > :59:01.start line. That was a nerve tingling moment as the two guys

:59:01. > :59:05.threatened the British all the way down, and in just the last few

:59:05. > :59:09.gates they picked up at two second penalty and it was all gone.

:59:09. > :59:12.course is relentless. There is moving all the way to the finish,

:59:12. > :59:19.and you have to make sure you get through every single one of the

:59:19. > :59:22.gates, the 23 gates on the course and the British pairing were the

:59:22. > :59:30.only ones to go down cleanly. you think it was an advantage with

:59:30. > :59:35.them going down first? Well, I think they had their eyes on

:59:35. > :59:39.something special either way. two guys, the two men in the boat,

:59:39. > :59:44.the Slovakian twins. The best paddlers, not just of their

:59:44. > :59:54.generation, but of any generation. They are going for a 4th

:59:54. > :59:57.

:59:57. > :00:00.only in gate three as they drop into four. There is a better start

:00:00. > :00:05.than they had in the semifinal where they had a two second penalty.

:00:05. > :00:10.They will look to drive the boat between seven and eight before they

:00:10. > :00:13.drop down. They are off on the split so far. Almost a second. 0.93.

:00:13. > :00:18.Well, I am not saying it is effortless but they are so well

:00:18. > :00:23.tuned in together, in terms of technique. Coming out of ten.

:00:23. > :00:27.Across the Edy, and this is looking very good for the Hochschorner

:00:27. > :00:32.brother, they are a bit stuck there on the stopper. They might have

:00:32. > :00:36.lost a bit of time. They are tight in and out of gate 13. They look to

:00:36. > :00:41.lift the nose through the wave before 14 which was done very well.

:00:41. > :00:45.Drop down the wave in 15 and now drive into the up stream gate.

:00:45. > :00:50.Tight on the pole. Driving those blades into the water. They never

:00:50. > :00:55.seem to get anxious, they have picked up a two second penalty. And

:00:55. > :01:00.they are behind Bailey an -- Bailey and Stott. The Hochschorner twins

:01:00. > :01:04.are never been beaten, in an Olympic final. They are losing time

:01:04. > :01:09.there. Having to drive back up stream, up through 19, now can they

:01:09. > :01:14.pick up that lost time? On Baillie and Stott of Great Britain? They

:01:14. > :01:19.are still looking cool. They are having to chase the time of Baillie

:01:19. > :01:26.and Stott. There is two gates the go. They punch through the wave at

:01:26. > :01:32.22. It is is going to be close. It is not. Bale laind Stott have a

:01:32. > :01:40.Silver Medal. -- Baillie and Stott have a silver medal. The stadium is

:01:40. > :01:43.going potty here. Etienne Stott and Tim Baillie probably can't believe

:01:43. > :01:46.what has happened here. If anybody was going to beat them, it was

:01:46. > :01:53.going to be the Hochschorner brothers, going for a fourth gold

:01:53. > :01:56.medal in a row. To set themselves up as the greatest paddling pair in

:01:56. > :02:01.history. One of the great Olympian teams in history as well, but it

:02:02. > :02:05.didn't happen, and that means the there is only one pair now can

:02:05. > :02:10.prevent Tim Baillie and Etienne Stott from winning the gold medal.

:02:10. > :02:14.Guess what, they are British. this now means this is going to be

:02:15. > :02:19.our first Olympic Gold, because in canoe slalom Great Britain have

:02:19. > :02:25.never won an Olympic Gold, so the question is will it be Baillie and

:02:25. > :02:29.Stott or Florence and Hounslow. nay can reproduce the performance

:02:29. > :02:34.they set in the semifinals, it was a beautiful performance, it wasn't

:02:35. > :02:40.as fast as Baillie and Stott but it was clean. So here we go, this

:02:40. > :02:44.could be real British history here. David Florence already a silver

:02:44. > :02:50.medallist from four years ago in Beijing in the C1 event and Richard

:02:50. > :02:54.Hounslow. And they are chasing the time by their friends and training

:02:54. > :02:58.partners, Tim Baillie and Etienne Stott who currently lead this C2

:02:58. > :03:02.final. Keeping it tight round the poles there, David Leaning off gate

:03:02. > :03:07.four. Setting up the line from seven to eight. Richard having to

:03:07. > :03:12.duck off gate eight. They are up 1.01 on the split. But they will

:03:12. > :03:15.have to maintain it through the most difficult parts of the course.

:03:15. > :03:20.Etienne and Tim went brilliantly from this point forward and they

:03:20. > :03:27.have certainly lost a bit of time there. Coming out of ten. This is

:03:27. > :03:31.where Baillie and Stott really won it, I think. Set the fastest time

:03:31. > :03:35.so far, Florence and Hounslow a bit untidy, would have lost a lot of

:03:35. > :03:40.time but not enough to push them below the Hochschorners at the

:03:40. > :03:43.moment. We see the next split time. What shape are the British pair in?

:03:43. > :03:47.Florence and Hounslow have got to keep it together. Working hard

:03:47. > :03:53.together on the exit of gate 16 and 17, they will be tight to the split

:03:53. > :03:59.of Bailey and Stott and they are. They rup on the split. This would

:03:59. > :04:02.be an incredible performance, they have shown immense promise all year,

:04:02. > :04:07.that was brilliant coming up to the gate. Everybody is cheering,

:04:07. > :04:12.everybody in the commentary area is screaming here. For David Florence

:04:12. > :04:17.and Richard Hounslow. Going up through 21. One stroke, two stroke,

:04:17. > :04:22.out into the middle of the course. Two to go. No fault. This could be

:04:22. > :04:30.gold and silver for Great Britain. Can David Florence and Richard

:04:30. > :04:40.Hounslow win it? Oh, my goodness, they have got a Silver Medal. There

:04:40. > :04:40.

:04:40. > :04:44.are the Olympic champions. A last medallist. In the last event. A

:04:44. > :04:51.first medallist in the last event. What am I talking about? We don't

:04:51. > :04:55.just get one, we get two medals. Absolutely incredible, and in the

:04:55. > :05:01.process, they have beaten the greatest competitors of all time in

:05:01. > :05:06.this event. The Hochschorner twins, from Slovakia, who would have

:05:06. > :05:12.believed it before today. Wonderful, wonderful stuff. That is a real

:05:12. > :05:15.shot in the arm, not just for these gentlemen but for the whole of

:05:15. > :05:20.British canoeing, the British canoeing union will be totally

:05:20. > :05:27.delighted, what a lovely moment as well, for the men who just finished

:05:27. > :05:31.there. David Florence of course didn't make the final of his event.

:05:31. > :05:38.Neither did Richard Hounslow but they have picked up a Silver Medal

:05:38. > :05:43.here and we can celebrate a gold and silver and our latest Olympic

:05:43. > :05:47.champions, Tim Baillie and Stott Stott. Wonderful, wonderful stuff

:05:47. > :05:52.here. -- Etienne Stott. Wonderful stuff here Attlee valley. I am

:05:52. > :05:56.speechless. I can't believe what has happened out there. Canoe

:05:56. > :06:01.slalom's first ever gold medal and the first medal for canoe for the

:06:01. > :06:05.C2 category, and two gold medals, we, sorry, two medal, we always

:06:05. > :06:12.knew with two boats in this final, the odds were good, but the odds

:06:12. > :06:20.have proven to be very very good. We are fumbling over our words

:06:21. > :06:26.because it is sum a fabulous moment. -- such. I think the whole of the

:06:26. > :06:32.coach coaching team will be in the LeeValley arena before too long.

:06:32. > :06:38.This is what dreams are made of, and this is what makes Olympic

:06:38. > :06:43.competition very special indeed. Absolutely. Raise astonishing. I

:06:43. > :06:47.mentioned the sluice gates opening, well, a trickle of medals is now a

:06:47. > :06:52.raging torrent, look at this. Great Britain catapulting themselves up

:06:52. > :06:57.to fifth place, on the medal table, four golds, four silver, four

:06:57. > :07:02.bronze medal so far. What an afternoon at the Lee Valley

:07:02. > :07:07.Whitewater Centre. Let us get the reaction with Jonathan Edwards, an

:07:07. > :07:12.amazing hour there. I have David and Richard alongside me. Olympic

:07:12. > :07:16.silver medallist, I can hardly put into word what is this is like?

:07:16. > :07:20.That was the most difficult start line we have sat on. Going off last,

:07:20. > :07:25.it wasn't easy, we knew the times were going well, but we had to try

:07:25. > :07:29.and focus on our own run, we did it. We put in a good run. We were

:07:29. > :07:34.pleased. We were on the wrong side. But you know, to win an Olympic

:07:34. > :07:38.medal, we are certainly not disappointed. It is fantastic, you

:07:38. > :07:43.know, sitting on the start line there, we knew that Great Britain

:07:43. > :07:50.had a gold medal, basically, which on its own was fantastick, we are,

:07:50. > :07:53.you know, one team, it is all about Team GB but we wanted to put a

:07:53. > :07:57.result in, and we attacked it hard all the way down, it was probably

:07:57. > :08:01.just a sprint to the finish, just a bit there, and then, you know, that

:08:01. > :08:05.is the difference between Olympic champions and silver medallist, but

:08:05. > :08:11.you know, it is fantastick. Brilliant. You talk about Olympic

:08:11. > :08:18.champion, let us bring them in. Sorry to shuffle you out of the way.

:08:18. > :08:22.Keep closer. This is amazing. You are the Olympic champions. It is

:08:22. > :08:26.weird. It doesn't seem quite like that is what could be happening,

:08:27. > :08:32.but this morning, we did known what could happen. It could have been a

:08:32. > :08:36.disaster and now it's a dream, and, oh, I don't know... I don't think

:08:36. > :08:40.surreal covers it. It is incredible. I was really happy, we are going to

:08:40. > :08:44.be in the top six when we made the final and then thought if we could

:08:44. > :08:50.finish fourth that could be cool, we could have the result as Nick

:08:50. > :08:55.our coach got in Sydney. To win is mad, and for these boys to finish

:08:55. > :08:59.second, I don't know. Slalom race, and that has made up for it. There

:08:59. > :09:03.has been huge pressure on the team, the first few days didn't go so

:09:03. > :09:08.bell, to come out and do this shows huge heart. We did feel the

:09:08. > :09:11.pressure. I am not sure what these guys felt. I felt we needed snog go

:09:11. > :09:17.right today. We needed to get boats in the finals and we have strong

:09:17. > :09:21.boats. These guys and us, we in our sport there is nothing taken for

:09:21. > :09:24.granted. To get into the final, that was amazing, and you know, you

:09:24. > :09:28.know, over a year ago my should ir, I had surgery on my shoulder, I

:09:28. > :09:33.thought, you know, could that be, that path along from there to now.

:09:33. > :09:36.that path along from there to now. It is like it. I can't get round it.

:09:36. > :09:40.It... When you finished that run, you looked at your time. You were

:09:40. > :09:45.paddling in front of me. What did you think that was good enough for?

:09:45. > :09:50.We didn't remember. We had no idea what the times were. We only looked

:09:50. > :09:54.how far we were off Dave and Rich. We were asking Nick if it was a

:09:54. > :09:59.decent time. The run we had, I was hoping it might be good enough for

:09:59. > :10:04.a medal. You can never time. It was a high quality final. The boats are

:10:04. > :10:08.good and our sport is so... Inconsistent I guess you could say,

:10:08. > :10:13.hard to be consistent. You never know, I didn't expect that, but...

:10:13. > :10:17.Two bits of history, first ever Olympic gold medal, for canoe

:10:17. > :10:23.slalom and the you beat the Hochschorners. They are great

:10:23. > :10:28.champion, they are amazing athlete, and they are our models and when we

:10:29. > :10:32.watch, they are our reference point, and to beet them, it is tough, they

:10:32. > :10:37.had a record to beat today and they have just, they are an amazing

:10:37. > :10:41.athlete, we have managed to beat them but it takes nothing off their

:10:41. > :10:46.achievements. They are a fantastic crew: They are still the best crew

:10:46. > :10:52.in history, and you know, well, it is good we... You are the best C2

:10:52. > :11:01.crew today. Yes, exactly. I mean, that, I am am happy about that.

:11:01. > :11:06.Both of them 32. Tim from Aberdeen and Etienne from Manchester. His

:11:06. > :11:09.much mum is French Canadian. Just before we saw that we saw Peter

:11:09. > :11:13.Wilson landing his gold in the double trap shooting, the first

:11:13. > :11:21.gold medal, indeed the first med offal any kind in the shooting

:11:21. > :11:26.events since 2000.. Medal of any kind. Let us get his reaction tho

:11:26. > :11:31.that tense Vic from. You could sew what that meant to you. It meant a

:11:31. > :11:35.huge amount. It is really difficult. I watched the games and I watched

:11:35. > :11:40.us win a couple of gold medals and you watch the guys talking and they

:11:40. > :11:43.say, it is just impossible to talk about it and it really is. It, it

:11:43. > :11:49.was an emotional rollercoaster, but there are a few people I have to

:11:49. > :11:53.thank. There are a lot. I won't say it now because I will go on forever,

:11:53. > :11:57.but mainly obviously the Britishing shooting management National

:11:57. > :12:00.Lottery and without a shadow of a doubt my coach. There is no doubt I

:12:00. > :12:05.would not be here today if it wasn't for him. So a massive thank

:12:05. > :12:08.you. And mum and dad and my girlfriend, a huge thanks. You were

:12:08. > :12:13.looking up to the crowd to see if you can find them. I don't know

:12:13. > :12:17.where they are. Dad is probably hiding miles away. But what a

:12:17. > :12:22.feeling! What a rush! When it went down to one point, that lead your

:12:22. > :12:25.heart must have been pounding? thought I will allow myself to look

:12:25. > :12:30.back at the board on the fourth pair and I missed the pair and I

:12:30. > :12:34.thought, I kept going, I thought you know what I came in wa lead, a

:12:35. > :12:39.possibility, got to peg three, had a look, realised I needed to shoot

:12:39. > :12:44.the rest. What a feeling. It, I really don't know what to say.

:12:44. > :12:49.Olympic gold medallist. I am. That is weird to say that. I am an

:12:49. > :12:56.Olympic gold medallist. Congratulations. Well done. Well

:12:56. > :13:01.done! Well done. An amazing victory there, at the Royal Artillery

:13:01. > :13:05.barrack, I tell you what, two gold medals a silver and a guaranteed

:13:05. > :13:09.silver with Gemma's turn to come. I have to say that is probably one of

:13:10. > :13:14.the most envaiting hour-and-a-halfs I have spent. It is sports you
