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

Now before today it had been a pretty disappointing games for an | :04:13. | :04:21. | |
judo. Today James Austin lost his first-round match against a former | :04:21. | :04:29. | |
world champion from Japan, Takamasa Anai. But German Gibbons has been | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
battling through her division today. The 24 year-old who got the British | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
Open earlier this year has won two fights against Portuguese and | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
Mongolian opponents today. Including that dramatic last-minute | :04:44. | :04:52. | |
effort. In the quarter-final, if she wins she has a good shot at the | :04:52. | :04:58. | |
she wins she has a good shot at the medals. Let us see how she does. | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
Only the second British fighter to appear in a judo quarter-final this | :05:03. | :05:13. | |
:05:13. | :05:24. | ||
week. Colin Oates the other, sitting watching and hoping now. | :05:24. | :05:34. | |
:05:34. | :05:36. | ||
Gibbons in the blue. Gemma is capable of winning. She will be | :05:36. | :05:46. | |
:05:46. | :05:46. | ||
fighting out of her skin today. Of the Dutch woman the 10th best | :05:47. | :05:56. | |
:05:57. | :06:02. | ||
player in the world today. That dramatic second round win in the | :06:03. | :06:12. | |
:06:13. | :06:25. | ||
final second against the Mongolian. For Gemma the thicker the CV, the | :06:25. | :06:35. | |
:06:35. | :06:59. | ||
seconds of this fight. A brilliant attack! Hooks a leg in. Her | :06:59. | :07:09. | |
:07:09. | :07:12. | ||
opponent just managing to step back and get out of that. Gemma has | :07:13. | :07:22. | |
being doing judo since she was six. Both fighters looking to get a grip | :07:22. | :07:32. | |
:07:32. | :07:45. | ||
on the jacket. She knows this area up well. Her | :07:45. | :07:53. | |
Greenwich home just on the other side of the River Thames. Another | :07:53. | :08:03. | |
:08:03. | :08:08. | ||
strong attack from the Dutch woman. You only have a split second to | :08:08. | :08:18. | |
:08:18. | :08:18. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds | :08:18. | :09:08. | |
attack once you have got a grip. have hurt herself and that exchange. | :09:08. | :09:18. | |
:09:18. | :09:21. | ||
Did she have a finger pooled? magic is going to come on. -- Madoc. | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
The referee just checking she is OK to go on and she shakes her head, | :09:27. | :09:37. | |
:09:37. | :09:42. | ||
she is OK. Approaching the halfway point of this contest. Gemma | :09:42. | :09:52. | |
:09:52. | :09:58. | ||
looking for her attack now. Those Dutch razor blades coming off the | :09:58. | :10:08. | |
:10:08. | :10:25. | ||
left foot. Gemma looking for her own grips on the jacket. She has | :10:25. | :10:34. | |
lost her belt. This was just about the most open division coming into | :10:34. | :10:44. | |
:10:44. | :10:55. | ||
these games. Gemma has forced her way into contention h ere. | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
would not have been thought to be one of the favourites but here she | :10:58. | :11:08. | |
:11:08. | :11:16. | ||
is, doing really well. Trying to hook her leg in. | :11:16. | :11:25. | |
It really is all to play for. all about the checks and balances. | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
You need to be careful you're not off balance and susceptible to | :11:30. | :11:39. | |
something from the opponent. have to wait for the right moment. | :11:39. | :11:45. | |
It is a matter of trying to find a weakness, trying to push until you | :11:45. | :11:55. | |
:11:55. | :12:03. | ||
get that in balance. A great attack, Gemma almost scored. It is like an | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
imaginary spirit level hovering over the head of the opponent. | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
you just have a split second and then you just have to go for it, | :12:12. | :12:22. | |
:12:22. | :12:27. | ||
100%. Approaching the final minute of regulation time. Gemma Gibbons, | :12:27. | :12:37. | |
:12:37. | :12:44. | ||
the Londoner, in the blue. Against Verkerk in white. A warning for the | :12:44. | :12:54. | |
:12:54. | :13:04. | ||
Dutch fighter for stepping out. It has been wiped off for now. | :13:04. | :13:13. | |
51 seconds left and still level. There will be three minutes of gold | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
and scorer if these two cannot sort out their conversation during what | :13:18. | :13:28. | |
:13:28. | :13:36. | ||
is left of this one. Gemma continuing to push forward. | :13:36. | :13:44. | |
What is causing the most pain? At the moment, you will be tired. But | :13:44. | :13:54. | |
:13:54. | :13:58. | ||
as soon as you start again, you are just in to the fight again. | :13:58. | :14:06. | |
It is all the years of training. She has done it! She has gone and | :14:06. | :14:16. | |
:14:16. | :14:20. | ||
booked a place in at the semi- final! With an ippon. Has it been | :14:20. | :14:30. | |
:14:30. | :14:32. | ||
confirmed? With six seconds left on the clock. The television judges | :14:32. | :14:39. | |
are taking a look at the replay and they are just checking. If she has | :14:40. | :14:47. | |
slammed her opponent flat on her back then it will be confirmed as | :14:47. | :14:57. | |
an ippon. If not then she still has six seconds to survive. And it has. | :14:57. | :15:07. | |
:15:07. | :15:10. | ||
judo campaign in the ExCel will scarcely be able to believe this. | :15:10. | :15:20. | |
:15:20. | :15:24. | ||
Gemma Gibbons from Britain, into the Olympic semifinals of the judo! | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
The girls did it in a boat yesterday. They have been doing it | :15:28. | :15:33. | |
on the bike, and now one of them is doing it on the mat. What more can | :15:33. | :15:40. | |
you say about Gemma Gibbons. She is an Olympic semifinalist and she | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
gets the embrace from Britain's last winner of an Olympic medal. Is | :15:43. | :15:49. | |
the woman on the left about to be supplanted by the woman on the | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
right. She fought so well there, Kate pointing to the mat, saying | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
this is your next fight on. The next will be of course Gemma's | :15:58. | :16:08. | |
:16:08. | :16:16. | ||
semifinal fight. Ippon wazari, it Well done Gemma Gibbons. It is the | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
late, late show with Gemma, sensational victory from her, she | :16:19. | :16:25. | |
is into the semifinal. She will be fighting within the next 20 minutes. | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
Her opponent is Tcheumeo. We will get to that one live as soon as we | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
can. The reaction round Olympic Park and from British judo ka has | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
been wonderful. Colin oaths who got to the quarterfinal, amazing she | :16:38. | :16:44. | |
has done it into the semi. We have European Burton, Gemma is his | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
girlfriend. Ewe on the Burton of course had that heartbreaking | :16:50. | :16:57. | |
defeat. Euan says get some throat sweets, rest the voices and get | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
ready to go mental for Gemma, she is our hero, great to see you and | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
smiling again after giving his all the other day. He makes a cogent | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
point here she has beaten the European bronze medallist, a world | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
number seven and a former World Champion to get into this semifinal. | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
We will be be back live for that. If she wins that it's a guaranteed | :17:18. | :17:24. | |
silver. If not she will go into a fight against the winner of the | :17:24. | :17:26. | |
representative charge. So it is all happening. Between now and then, | :17:26. | :17:31. | |
this is the last day of action at the Lee Valley Whitewater Centre, | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
about 30 miles north. Two more events to come there, the women's | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
single kayak and the men's double canoe. What is the difference I | :17:39. | :17:44. | |
hear you cry? Well, beneath that closed in skirt or deck, a kayaker | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
is sitting down, and using a two bladed paddle. But the canoeists | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
are kneeling up and they are using a single bladed paddle. So now you | :17:55. | :18:01. | |
eknow. Today is when the whole of Slovakia will grind to a halt as | :18:02. | :18:07. | |
they watch the most famous double act. They will be going for an | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
unprecedented fourth consecutive gold. We will be seeing them later, | :18:10. | :18:15. | |
but Great Britain has medal ambitions too. Two pairs going in | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
this. Tim Baillie and etyeb Scot but it is Florence and houns blow | :18:18. | :18:23. | |
are the stronger pair after winning a World Cup event. Fastest six from | :18:23. | :18:33. | |
:18:33. | :18:54. | ||
the semis go through to the final Both disappointed with their | :18:54. | :18:59. | |
results in the C1 and the K1. So out here to make am mends, and so | :18:59. | :19:05. | |
far, so good for the Great Britain crew. Keeping it tidy and tight. | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
Richard is steering the canoe and David in the power down through the | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
front. They will want to drive the lines as straight as possible. | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
Sneaking under the pole and they are up on the split 1.50. | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
stadium has come to life, now, that they have seen that split time. If | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
they can hold it together. That is a good spin round, just finding a | :19:27. | :19:34. | |
bit of difficulty, getting the momentum going, once more. Lift the | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
bow over the stopper, they are slipping across into 13 and tight | :19:37. | :19:43. | |
round the poles. David driving the bow of the canoe back out as they | :19:43. | :19:51. | |
lift it over the stopper ahead of gate 14. No penalties at tall for | :19:51. | :19:57. | |
David Florence or David houns loi so far. -- Richard Hounslow. Across | :19:57. | :20:04. | |
17. We talk about them working well. These guys are working like a dream | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
at the moment. Still ahead of the leaders. And tight in the spin, and | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
back out across that wave as you see them keeping their nose high. | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
The power gets laid down by David in the front as they steer the boat | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
round and into the last up stream gate. 21. Two strokes and they are | :20:25. | :20:33. | |
back out into the flow. The corrode are going mental here. -- crowd. A | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
superb performance, Florence and Hounslow, going like trains, and in | :20:36. | :20:45. | |
the lead. That surely is a place in the final. A wonderful performance. | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
And far more confident. It looks than they were when they contested | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
their individual events. One of the highly ranked pairs of course in | :20:54. | :21:04. | |
the world, of C2 paddling. But that was just brilliant. A superb | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
performance, a different focus to what we saw in the singles. It | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
worked hard, their lines were precise and they seemed to know | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
exactly where they were heading that boat towards. Tight under the | :21:16. | :21:24. | |
up stream gate here as gate nine. That is 3.29 seconds ahead of | :21:24. | :21:34. | |
:21:34. | :21:34. | ||
anybody. Florence and Hounslow have showed them what a classy pair they | :21:34. | :21:43. | |
really are. Wonderful moment to join their team-mates, at the top | :21:43. | :21:49. | |
of the table. Let us wish them well. Tim Baillie at the front. Etienne | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
Stott in the centre, they were bronze medallist at the European | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
Championships and fourth at the worlds. They have been consistent | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
over the last 12 months. They are ranked six in the world, so they | :22:02. | :22:08. | |
deserve their place in this semifinal. So far looking smooth as | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
they work together through the first section of the course. We | :22:10. | :22:15. | |
want to see them roll their boat on the wave at gate seven and keep as | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
direct line as possible into eight. It is looking good so far. They are | :22:19. | :22:25. | |
up on David and Richard's split. Dropped a bit low into gate nine. | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
They will push hard to keep as tight as spin as possible, as | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
little time is spend there, they are paddling hard to get across the | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
river and get the momentum going, they have found themselves stuck | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
sideways, this is costing them precious bits of time. That was | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
very skilful, wasn't it, to keep their cool, and reverse through | :22:46. | :22:53. | |
that gate. How much difference has that made to their progress down | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
the court course,? They they might be guaranteed a place in the final | :22:59. | :23:04. | |
if they beat another pair. There was the split time of Florence and | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
Hounslow. They have lost time, how much? It is not too bad. The | :23:10. | :23:17. | |
difference between the others was only 0.8 of a second. A nice spin | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
on 18. They are tight into 19 too. They have to make sure they hold on, | :23:22. | :23:27. | |
keep their composure after the last few gates on the course, they set | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
the angle on the canoe as they come into gate 21. They are back out. | :23:31. | :23:37. | |
Two more gates to go. Will the London factor, the home crowd make | :23:37. | :23:43. | |
a difference? The poles were flying at this -- Poles were flying at | :23:43. | :23:53. | |
:23:53. | :23:55. | ||
this point. They are in third place. My goodness, well, that does | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
confirm them with a place in the final. So can you believe it? We | :24:00. | :24:05. | |
are going to have plenty to cheer here in a couple of hours time. Two | :24:05. | :24:11. | |
C2 crews from Great Britain, in the Olympic final. It demonstrates such | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
maturity when that mistake happened when they found themselves going | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
backwards, they kept their cool and made sure they got themselves back | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
on track because mistakes happen here in canoe slalom. It is about | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
how you deal with them. Can you deal with them in a way you can | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
keep your moment up the and get back into a qualifying run. | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
three crews to go, but it does not make any difference to Tim Baillie | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
and Etienne Stott, they are safely in the final. So, both British | :24:40. | :24:46. | |
crews into the final, but what about those fun loving boys from | :24:46. | :24:53. | |
Bratislava, the 32-year-old twins? They have won almost half of their | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
country's gold medal haul since Slovakia gained independence, 5.5 | :24:59. | :25:04. | |
million people expect a fourth gold. No pressure, this was a good run | :25:04. | :25:09. | |
and this pair were the the quickest of all, but, two penalty, after | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
touching a gate. Not sure whether it was up stream or downstream. We | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
will be able to see. Crossing the line, so they qualified second | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
behind Florence and Hounslow, so this is how it looked. The top six | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
go through to that final which takes place about 3.15 and it is | :25:28. | :25:37. | |
great to see the Britons at the top of the pile. A great crowd at the | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
LeeValley centre will be delighted with that. As I say, 3.15 roughly | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
is when we will go back to that. We are building up to the Judo shortly | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
but before we go there let us get a quick catch up with events in | :25:50. | :25:55. | |
Weymouth. Shirley, it has been a Weymouth. Shirley, it has been a | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
very eventful down there. Not least in the fin class. Ben Ainslie, has | :25:59. | :26:09. | |
:26:09. | :26:12. | ||
the tide turned we wonder? She is having a few problems hearing us. | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
great start for Big Ben, the first race of the day, he dominated it. | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
He led from the start, he controlled it all the way round and | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
won the race. Perhaps also, more interestingly, the Danish sailor, | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
the big Danish sailor that has been ahead of him for all six races, | :26:29. | :26:37. | |
capsized. So, great news for Ben Ainslie, he is in his second race. | :26:37. | :26:43. | |
A win in the first race today for the star sailor, they are behind me. | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
Good news in the 470 men. It is their opening day and they finished | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
with two seconds. In the 49er class, they had a second and a first, so a | :26:52. | :26:58. | |
great day for British supporters. Yes, I think you must be sponsored | :26:58. | :27:03. | |
by a leading brand of seasickness pills. It looks very choppy. What | :27:03. | :27:13. | |
:27:13. | :27:15. | ||
for you has been the stand out performance this morning? | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
obviously have a few problems with Shirley. I am not surprised he has | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
been on the water for hours and hours, rather her than me! It is | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
going down well in Weymouth. I am sure someone who can hear sus on | :27:27. | :27:32. | |
dry land. Jonathan Edwards is at the Lee Valley Whitewater Centre | :27:32. | :27:38. | |
and I am sure great reaction to that semifinal down there Jonathan? | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
David Florence and Richard Hounslow alongside me after that brilliant | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
run. David, let me dom you first. What is the main emotion, relief, | :27:45. | :27:53. | |
excitement? Almost neither, just yet. We are pleased to be through, | :27:53. | :27:59. | |
but just staying focused. All we were doing was focusing on our run, | :27:59. | :28:02. | |
either way, we didn't want to treat it like that, what we had to beat, | :28:02. | :28:07. | |
we had to put in a good run for u and you know, things didn't go | :28:07. | :28:10. | |
perfectly but we kept focused and we pushed on and tried to get back | :28:10. | :28:14. | |
on line the whole way and we are pleased with that, and looking to | :28:14. | :28:19. | |
do the same again. In is only half a job done. Yes, not even half a | :28:19. | :28:25. | |
job. Once you get into the final, it is back to zero, so, yeah, like | :28:25. | :28:29. | |
David said we will go back, there is a few bits we need to work on, a | :28:29. | :28:34. | |
bit sketchy off the start, but you know, we held it together, any time | :28:34. | :28:39. | |
we were tight on things, we just were composed, and sorted ourselves | :28:39. | :28:46. | |
out and put in a nice solid run to get through the finals. Sound good. | :28:46. | :28:49. | |
Immense courage, strength of character, go away and get ready | :28:49. | :28:53. | |
for the final. Thank you very much. Great stuff. Saz u -- as you say it | :28:53. | :28:59. | |
is about 3.15. Jonathan can join us live. I am sure great excitement. | :28:59. | :29:02. | |
The reaction from some of the Slovakian fan, it is a shock to the | :29:02. | :29:06. | |
system to see the boys beaten there. Certainly was, you know, three | :29:06. | :29:14. | |
Olympic titles in a row, going for their fourth. They did have an | :29:14. | :29:16. | |
early penalty. Nonetheless, you wouldn't bet against them when it | :29:16. | :29:20. | |
comes to the final. But David Florence and Richard Hounslow have | :29:20. | :29:24. | |
shown incredible strength of character. I interviewed them after | :29:24. | :29:28. | |
the semifinals of the K1 and C1. They were devastated. They didn't | :29:28. | :29:32. | |
know what to say or do. It wasn't what they dreamed of. They had been | :29:32. | :29:36. | |
training here for the last 18 months so to turn it round in the | :29:36. | :29:39. | |
way they did, they deserve immense praise, they are right in there | :29:39. | :29:44. | |
with a chance. They R just explain to us what happens now, I believe | :29:44. | :29:47. | |
the slate is wiped clean and we start again for the final. That is | :29:47. | :29:51. | |
right. They go in reverse order, depending on how fast or slow they | :29:51. | :29:56. | |
went in that semifinal. So David Florence and Richard Hounslow will | :29:56. | :30:01. | |
go off last. Etienne Stott and Tim Baillie will go off first. It is | :30:01. | :30:05. | |
hard to tpwhee the most favourable draw is. They probably prefer not | :30:05. | :30:08. | |
to go last, but any way, the guys can take the confidence from the | :30:08. | :30:12. | |
fact they are the fastest in the semifinals but they start from | :30:12. | :30:16. | |
scratch. Looking forward to it. Thank you. We are billing up to the | :30:17. | :30:21. | |
judo, with Gemma Gibbons going in the semifinal of her division, 78 | :30:21. | :30:26. | |
kilos shortly. Before we do, if you haven't seen this, certainly worth | :30:26. | :30:30. | |
watching again. Without question, the best race of the rowing regatta | :30:30. | :30:35. | |
so far. It is the lightweight men's four and our four, reminding us the | :30:35. | :30:40. | |
Great Britain team is Great Britain and Northern Ireland team. The | :30:40. | :30:43. | |
Chambers brothers from Coleraine are prominent members of the team. | :30:43. | :30:53. | |
:30:53. | :31:05. | ||
Let us show you how this one ended strokes remain. Denmark, Australia | :31:05. | :31:12. | |
and Great Britain. The Danes have led right from the first stroke. We | :31:12. | :31:18. | |
are now in danger zone. Chris Bartley brings his meant right up | :31:18. | :31:25. | |
on to the boil. There will be met by a wall of noise from the British | :31:25. | :31:34. | |
crowd. South Africa coming up as well. This is a tough event. That | :31:34. | :31:44. | |
:31:44. | :31:44. | ||
wall of sound has got to drive them on. Can they make it? | :31:44. | :31:49. | |
Surely there are now looking for stronger. One big push. The crowd | :31:49. | :31:59. | |
:31:59. | :31:59. | ||
are on their feet. They are just into second place. They are moving. | :32:00. | :32:09. | |
:32:10. | :32:10. | ||
As the Danes have responded well DUP --. It is going to the wire. | :32:10. | :32:17. | |
They're not going to make it. Denmark had moved out again. South | :32:17. | :32:24. | |
Africa sneaking ahead of the Danes. Here come the British, they are not | :32:24. | :32:28. | |
going to do it. South Africa are the Olympic champions. And we have | :32:28. | :32:33. | |
to wait for the confirmation. Great Britain get the silver and Denmark | :32:33. | :32:41. | |
get the bronze. It was a valiant effort. It is jubilation in of the | :32:41. | :32:45. | |
South African boat. And a little bit of disappointment for the | :32:45. | :32:51. | |
silver medal. A worthy silver medal for Great Britain. They gave | :32:51. | :32:57. | |
absolutely everything to date for themselves, for the team and for | :32:57. | :33:00. | |
themselves, for the team and for Great Britain. | :33:00. | :33:06. | |
Da UN on water's edge, what are we thinking? That was brutal, really | :33:07. | :33:14. | |
brutal. We were just fighting through the whole lot. Just to get | :33:14. | :33:18. | |
ourselves back in contention. We did a cracking job would just not | :33:18. | :33:24. | |
good enough to get the gold. To even get as Silva was impressive | :33:24. | :33:33. | |
from where we came from. We were just struggling to keep pace. We | :33:33. | :33:38. | |
just dug our heels in and fought really hard. Tell us about the | :33:38. | :33:46. | |
first 500m or so? I think we did a reasonable job, we | :33:46. | :33:55. | |
were bounced around quite a lot. It is a tough event. We wanted to | :33:55. | :34:02. | |
win. As silver is fantastic, it is a medal at the Olympics. And you | :34:02. | :34:10. | |
have seen the event. In terms of the race, as a dramatic spectacle, | :34:10. | :34:16. | |
it is the best we have seen so far at this regatta. We you drinking in | :34:16. | :34:22. | |
the last July 0150 or so, if we can get past the Danes we can do it, | :34:22. | :34:27. | |
almost as if you're blind decided by the South Africans? Not really. | :34:27. | :34:36. | |
It was just about putting their head down and going for it. | :34:36. | :34:42. | |
It was just trying to get the blade in it and get on with it. I'm sure | :34:42. | :34:45. | |
everyone in Northern Ireland and Coleraine Road will be unbelievably | :34:46. | :34:54. | |
proud of you. We will be speaking about this at length. How do you | :34:54. | :35:04. | |
:35:04. | :35:07. | ||
feel about silver medal he now? We wanted to win, but we have to be | :35:07. | :35:13. | |
happy to get a medal. It is a home Olympic Games and we're silver | :35:13. | :35:18. | |
medallists, it is not terrible. It is a shame we did not win but we | :35:18. | :35:22. | |
did everything we could and these things happen. Thank you very much | :35:23. | :35:32. | |
:35:33. | :35:34. | ||

:37:21. | :37:23. | ||
Not long before the 20 from it -- the 24 year-old Gemma Gibbons plays | :37:23. | :37:31. | |
in the judo final. Let us take a look at this pretty difficult sport | :37:31. | :37:41. | |
:37:41. | :37:45. | ||
look at this pretty difficult sport The playing area is a foam covered | :37:45. | :37:54. | |
mat. The referee remains in the combat area throughout the contest. | :37:54. | :37:59. | |
To external judges stay outside to come from the decisions of the | :37:59. | :38:09. | |
:38:09. | :38:11. | ||
referee if necessary. A variety of techniques are used. Including | :38:11. | :38:21. | |
:38:21. | :38:37. | ||
ippon and yuko. An ippon secures immediate victory. Waza-ari | :38:37. | :38:47. | |
:38:47. | :38:52. | ||
culminates in an opponent being thrown on their back. A yuko is | :38:52. | :38:59. | |
when an opponent does not land on their back. Gemma Gibbons just | :38:59. | :39:07. | |
getting prepared now. The last Olympic medal for judo gained 12 | :39:07. | :39:16. | |
years ago for Kate Howey. This is an absolutely supreme effort to | :39:16. | :39:24. | |
have got this far. Our fingers are crossed as she takes on her French | :39:24. | :39:31. | |
opponent. Her mother played handball from | :39:31. | :39:38. | |
Cameroon, a very sporting family her opponent comes from. And we | :39:38. | :39:48. | |
:39:48. | :39:52. | ||
her opponent comes from. And we features a Brazilian and an | :39:52. | :40:00. | |
American. The Brazilian came into the Games as the world number one. | :40:00. | :40:06. | |
The American, Kayla Harrison, 22 years of age. | :40:06. | :40:11. | |
The Brazilian it is the top seed, having won the last Grand Prix | :40:11. | :40:21. | |
:40:21. | :40:24. | ||
before these games. The Paris Grand Slam. | :40:24. | :40:30. | |
She also beat Kayla Harrison that day. And the American is now on the | :40:30. | :40:40. | |
:40:40. | :40:53. | ||
gold. She goes to sleep every night apparently imagined that it might | :40:53. | :41:03. | |
:41:03. | :41:06. | ||
be her. She is a fantastic fighter, so powerful. She has great hip | :41:06. | :41:16. | |
:41:16. | :41:44. | ||
throws. These are two of the best are names in the semi-final you | :41:44. | :41:54. | |
:41:54. | :42:03. | ||
for it. The prison in blocking. Harrison is two times national | :42:03. | :42:13. | |
:42:13. | :42:22. | ||
years for the way he treated her. She apparently contemplated suicide. | :42:22. | :42:32. | |
:42:32. | :42:33. | ||
She claims her current coach came in and saved her life. And looking | :42:33. | :42:38. | |
to do the greatest thing possible if you're an athlete, potentially | :42:38. | :42:46. | |
to win an Olympic gold medal. Kerridge both on and off the mat. - | :42:46. | :42:56. | |
:42:56. | :43:25. | ||
it their instructions during those great names. The Brazilian coach | :43:25. | :43:30. | |
probably does not need a mobile phone to contact her friends back | :43:30. | :43:40. | |
:43:40. | :43:40. | ||
home! The winner will be in the Olympic | :43:40. | :43:50. | |
:43:50. | :44:01. | ||
watch, she is fast and light on her feet. | :44:01. | :44:09. | |
Locked into this one-handed grip again. | :44:09. | :44:14. | |
Looking for the sleeve and at the same time looking to see what your | :44:14. | :44:24. | |
:44:24. | :44:26. | ||
opponent's hand is up to as well. That was close for the American. | :44:26. | :44:34. | |
It really is a battle for the grip. It you feel you're at a | :44:34. | :44:44. | |
:44:44. | :44:50. | ||
disadvantage then you have got to break out. | :44:50. | :44:54. | |
David Cameron is one of the spectators today as his Vladimir | :44:54. | :45:04. | |
:45:04. | :45:18. | ||
Putin, who is a black belts. A big risk getting countered. Every seat | :45:18. | :45:26. | |
has been sold out here, every session. This vast exhibition and | :45:26. | :45:32. | |
Conference Centre. Five different halls, hosting all those different | :45:32. | :45:37. | |
sports. One of them judo. A big o goshi and Harrison turns it back. | :45:37. | :45:43. | |
Takes her down for the yuko so she is ahead by the smallest score, a | :45:43. | :45:48. | |
yuko. Now she is on the arm. She won with this technique earlier | :45:48. | :45:53. | |
today. She is looking to get the roll and roll her on to the back. | :45:53. | :46:02. | |
The referee calling mate. Brilliant timing, catches the leg, drives the | :46:02. | :46:09. | |
Brazilian back. The 22-year-old American who has gone through some | :46:09. | :46:16. | |
of the most unimaginable things that life can offer her so far,. | :46:16. | :46:21. | |
Again on the ground, looking for the arm. The referee will give them | :46:22. | :46:26. | |
time on the ground, while the action is going on. The Brazilian | :46:26. | :46:32. | |
looking up, trying to get the break. 25 seconds to go. I am not sure | :46:32. | :46:36. | |
where you go if you are in sixth gear as the coach. The Brazilian is | :46:36. | :46:44. | |
trying to find it. Her charge needs to as well. Aguiar, she came in as | :46:44. | :46:48. | |
the top seed. Unless she gets her skates on she is losing, she has | :46:48. | :46:57. | |
lost. American judo, whatever happens in the final, will be able | :46:57. | :47:03. | |
to celebrate just its second ever medal in the women's division, and | :47:03. | :47:07. | |
Kayla Harrison who when she comes to write the book will have some | :47:07. | :47:17. | |
:47:17. | :47:24. | ||
story to tell, will go for gold in American, from first thing this | :47:24. | :47:28. | |
morning, jemmy Pedro the coach saying to her, there is nobody here | :47:28. | :47:36. | |
can beet you. -- Jimi. The girl from New York will very shortly be | :47:36. | :47:39. | |
going for Olympic Gold. Jimmy Pedro, such a great motivator, Americans | :47:40. | :47:49. | |
:47:50. | :48:09. | ||
chance of shooting for a bronze medal. Let us hope if she does, she | :48:09. | :48:14. | |
doesn't drop it in the shower did like another athlete did. He | :48:14. | :48:19. | |
cracked his. Aguiar will have a go for bronze shortly. We know one of | :48:19. | :48:24. | |
the finalist, it is the American Kayla Harrison. Jimmy Pedro does | :48:24. | :48:34. | |
:48:34. | :48:35. | ||
his nut and she does likewise. But it is time now, for the ExCel | :48:35. | :48:39. | |
centre. It has been buesmly supported by judo enthusiasts from | :48:39. | :48:45. | |
all over the world. But for once and for the first time this week, | :48:45. | :48:52. | |
it is largely about Britain. Sport. Sports have headlines over the last | :48:52. | :48:57. | |
24-hour, that if they could have rubbed out they would have done. | :48:57. | :49:03. | |
British judo has not known anything like this for 12 years. There is | :49:03. | :49:07. | |
her opponent Audrey Tcheumeo. The World Champion from France. The 21- | :49:07. | :49:12. | |
year-old, one of the most exciting talents in judo. 12 years since | :49:12. | :49:17. | |
Kate Howey fought in her semifinal in Sydney and she walks out behind | :49:17. | :49:23. | |
the girl who is looking to supersede her now. She will be mat | :49:23. | :49:28. | |
side and Gemma Gibbons attempts to bridge that gab of a dozen years, - | :49:29. | :49:31. | |
- gap, somebody who lives on the other side of the Thames from here | :49:32. | :49:36. | |
at the ExCel. The other side of the Blackwall Tunnel, or the other side | :49:36. | :49:42. | |
of the cable car, if you want to do it with a bit of a view. But it is | :49:42. | :49:46. | |
hard to imagine how much tougher it could be for Gibbons. Let us hear | :49:46. | :49:54. | |
the roar. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Tcheumeo the World Champion after | :49:54. | :49:57. | |
winling gold on her home mat. She has come to London as the third | :49:57. | :50:06. | |
seed. She ended the raid of the defending champion Zhang Li. She is | :50:07. | :50:10. | |
all that stands between Gemma Gibbons and a place in Olympic | :50:10. | :50:15. | |
history. The women's semifinal. Audrey Tcheumeo in blue. Gemma | :50:15. | :50:20. | |
Gibbons, the 25yeerl from Greenwich, in white. Gemma has been brilliant | :50:20. | :50:24. | |
today, but now she has to put all those rounds behind her, this is | :50:24. | :50:30. | |
the fight that matters. Se has been fighting brilliantly. Lovely | :50:30. | :50:40. | |
:50:40. | :50:46. | ||
attacking style of Judo. She is minute. Gemma will want to slow her | :50:46. | :50:56. | |
:50:56. | :51:00. | ||
of a medal. She will fight for gold or silver. If she loses she still | :51:00. | :51:10. | |
:51:10. | :51:19. | ||
might end up with a bronze. She These two fought earlier this year, | :51:19. | :51:26. | |
and it just ended on one to two so it is possible. It is conceiveable | :51:26. | :51:36. | |
:51:36. | :51:53. | ||
the area. The referee calling mate. I know there are fabulous personal | :51:53. | :51:56. | |
stories all over, but Gemma Gibbons introduced to the sport when her | :51:56. | :52:01. | |
mum took her along to the local metro Judo club when she was just | :52:01. | :52:04. | |
six, for as long as she can remember, her mum was there, her | :52:04. | :52:08. | |
biggest fan and inspiration, it is all she wanted to be, was be this, | :52:08. | :52:12. | |
an Olympian, her mum sadly isn't here to see itment she died a few | :52:12. | :52:17. | |
years ago. But her daughter is now an Olympian. I wonder if her mum | :52:17. | :52:20. | |
ever thought she would be fighting for a place in the Olympic final. | :52:20. | :52:30. | |
She is now. Getting her leg in. Tcheumeo gets the hips in. You are | :52:30. | :52:33. | |
a split second, when you land your grip, you have to the attack | :52:33. | :52:40. | |
instinctively. That is that fear some thing, you can seem to be on | :52:40. | :52:43. | |
the attack, the one hunting for glory and suddenly you are on your | :52:43. | :52:47. | |
own backside. It can turn in an instant, with the counters. It is | :52:48. | :52:55. | |
all about a waiting game. Waiting for the moment. Getting it right. | :52:55. | :53:05. | |
:53:05. | :53:06. | ||
Gemma, she has the sleeve now. Tcheumeo gets the first attack in. | :53:06. | :53:13. | |
French have had a long love affair with this sport. Major stars back | :53:13. | :53:17. | |
home, over 500,000 French play regular alreadyly, most of more and | :53:17. | :53:23. | |
will be on the edge of their seats right now. They have had five judo | :53:23. | :53:27. | |
medals to cheer this week. Have they not had enough? Can they not | :53:27. | :53:33. | |
give Great Britain a chance? Five for goodness sake! Gemma needs to | :53:33. | :53:41. | |
get that grip off her head. Does well there getting the hips in. | :53:41. | :53:44. | |
you are uncomfortable in the grip, you need to break out quickly, | :53:44. | :53:48. | |
otherwise you risk getting thrown. She did a good job there, getting | :53:48. | :53:58. | |
:53:58. | :54:01. | ||
the hips across and breaking the Howey saying that, as soon as you | :54:01. | :54:07. | |
get on the grip, attack. You can't wait, she is saying as soon as you | :54:07. | :54:12. | |
get hole of the sleeve, throw your leg in at the same time. -- hold. | :54:12. | :54:17. | |
Fvingsfrpblgts you wait you give your opponent time to defend. | :54:17. | :54:21. | |
wonder which was tougher, the Olympic semifinal she fought 12 | :54:21. | :54:24. | |
years ago on or the one she is involved in sitting on her chair? | :54:24. | :54:33. | |
Yeah. Very little she can do the eaffect this one. Tcheumeo in the | :54:33. | :54:37. | |
blue, Gemma Gibbons in the white as we approach the half way point of | :54:37. | :54:47. | |
:54:47. | :54:55. | ||
first. Right on the edge of the area. She is waiting. Tcheumeo | :54:55. | :55:01. | |
dropping down to her knees to get out of trouble. One of the issues | :55:01. | :55:05. | |
for Gibbons is when she gets in that position, you can see that she | :55:05. | :55:10. | |
is afraid of what the French woman might throw at her as she tries to | :55:10. | :55:15. | |
dislodge. There is only a split second in it, and it is, waiting | :55:15. | :55:20. | |
for the right moment. But again, Tcheumeo dropping down. You have to | :55:20. | :55:26. | |
move your opponent, with the attack, if you drop to your knees that is a | :55:26. | :55:30. | |
penalty. Referee might be giving that serious thought. Not on this | :55:30. | :55:34. | |
occasion, but the French woman, the World Champion, let us not forget, | :55:34. | :55:38. | |
is treading a fine line here. last minute and Gemma pushing | :55:38. | :55:46. | |
forward. She has a bit round the waist. She goes for the take back. | :55:46. | :55:56. | |
:55:56. | :56:00. | ||
And this is good. The last two strongly. But hen she will fade | :56:00. | :56:04. | |
into the last part of the fight. Gemma knows that and she will be | :56:04. | :56:14. | |
:56:14. | :56:23. | ||
while since a nation was so concerned about the right leg of a | :56:23. | :56:26. | |
French woman but every time Gemma Gibbons goes forward you are aware | :56:26. | :56:33. | |
that is spitting out with poison. On the end of it. Gibbons is doing | :56:33. | :56:37. | |
so well. She is trying to dictate the fight again. And again, again | :56:37. | :56:42. | |
the French fighter dropping down without moving her opponent. Gemma | :56:42. | :56:52. | |
:56:52. | :56:53. | ||
Gibbons needing to make sure she gets her own attacks in. That is | :56:53. | :57:03. | |
:57:03. | :57:15. | ||
really important that Gibbons does regulation time in this semifinal. | :57:15. | :57:25. | |
:57:25. | :57:30. | ||
Mate called as the fight goes medal since Barcelona 1992. That is | :57:30. | :57:36. | |
how long it is. Kate Howey's silver. One in 20 years. It is not being | :57:36. | :57:42. | |
greedy to ask for another. Fighting off a bit of French pressure for | :57:42. | :57:46. | |
once and did well to make sure she lan on her front rather than | :57:46. | :57:51. | |
anywhere that might concede a point. Avoided the yuko but it is | :57:51. | :57:56. | |
important that Gemma does get an attack in. Coming forward but she | :57:56. | :58:06. | |
:58:06. | :58:20. | ||
needs to get the attack in for the world World Champion is sucking up | :58:20. | :58:25. | |
vai -- vapours as well this is how well Gemma Gibbons is doing, they | :58:25. | :58:29. | |
are both exhausted. They both face the biggest 40 seconds of their | :58:29. | :58:33. | |
life so far. Vingsfrpblg Gibbon looking for the technique, he has | :58:33. | :58:41. | |
gone round the waist again. -- she has gone round the waist again. A | :58:41. | :58:50. | |
hint of fear perhaps in those French eyes. Oh. Good attempt | :58:50. | :58:58. | |
though. Gemma Gibbons really fighting this well. Up against the | :58:58. | :59:08. | |
:59:08. | :59:08. | ||
World Champion, the current World Champion here. Doing so well. 20 | :59:08. | :59:15. | |
seconds left. Are we going to need a golden score, to sort out this | :59:15. | :59:25. | |
:59:25. | :59:32. | ||
just turning out. The throw started within the area, it would have | :59:32. | :59:37. | |
counted. The French fighter managing to turn out on to her | :59:37. | :59:47. | |
:59:47. | :00:04. | ||
most encouraged? I think Gemma Gibbons and did that so well with | :00:04. | :00:14. | |
that last attack. The French woman starting to job to | :00:14. | :00:24. | |
:00:24. | :00:39. | ||
description. The first person to make the decisive move will be an | :00:39. | :00:49. | |
:00:49. | :01:22. | ||
the pressure. What do your lungs feel like at this stage? They are | :01:22. | :01:29. | |
burning now. Muscles burning, fingers burning. Absolutely. And | :01:29. | :01:39. | |
:01:39. | :01:42. | ||
you have to keep thinking even though you're so tired. So close! | :01:42. | :01:48. | |
Just abrading the clutches of the Britain. | :01:48. | :01:58. | |
:01:58. | :02:26. | ||
She is taking the risk, she went Gemma Gibbons. She is Euan Burton's | :02:26. | :02:34. | |
partner. Resolve how he reacted to the bruises the Olympics can | :02:34. | :02:44. | |
:02:44. | :03:08. | ||
inflict. To concede the ippon you the French woman does not have a | :03:08. | :03:18. | |
:03:18. | :03:45. | ||
lot left in the tank. -- telling bridge has been broken in glorious | :03:45. | :03:54. | |
fashion! It has been a dozen years since a British judo player has | :03:54. | :04:04. | |
:04:04. | :04:06. | ||
been able to do that. She is into the final. She has just | :04:06. | :04:16. | |
:04:16. | :04:22. | ||
beaten the world champion. The British women continued to | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
provide brilliant medal moments at these Olympics. And there is still | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
one more fight to go but she deserves to enjoy this moment. | :04:32. | :04:42. | |
:04:42. | :04:46. | ||
has just had the victory of her career. Fantastic judo, spectacular. | :04:46. | :04:54. | |
She goes for it. She gets in front and what a brilliant throw. An | :04:54. | :05:04. | |
:05:04. | :05:06. | ||
ippon. An emphatic ippon. British judo has travelled all around the | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
world, to Athens, to Beijing, looking for somebody to succeed | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
Kate Howey way. The girl they needed to find was living on the | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
other side of the Thames from where she has just secured her place in | :05:20. | :05:30. | |
:05:30. | :05:33. | ||
the Olympic final. After all the headlines, the squad being | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
criticised so publicly, just put that into perspective? I think that | :05:38. | :05:46. | |
has put it into perspective. Gemma Gibbons has just done that. That | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
was the best performance of the tournament. British judo has an | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
tournament. British judo has an Olympic finalist! | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
It is as silver for now but of course Gemma Gibbons gets the | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
chance to fight for the gold medal against Kayla Harrison of the | :06:05. | :06:14. | |
United States. We are not quite sure when that will be exactly. But | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
fantastic scenes down there and it has been along time coming. British | :06:19. | :06:29. | |
:06:29. | :06:30. | ||
judo has been in the doldrums. It was only one medal before that | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
and a huge relief for all judo players in the country. Peter | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
Wilson going in about seven or eight minutes time in the double | :06:42. | :06:52. | |
:06:52. | :06:53. | ||
traps shooting. But just time to drop in now to another part of the | :06:53. | :07:03. | |
:07:03. | :07:05. | ||
ExCel Arena. Great British boxers brought home one medal in Beijing. | :07:05. | :07:12. | |
The gold for James DeGale. Today Anthony Ogogo starts his bid to | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
succeed James DeGale. He has had an huge leap up time just to be here | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
after shoulder surgery. But he is a big time performer and he will have | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
to be because he finds himself up against the reigning world champion | :07:29. | :07:36. | |
against the reigning world champion from the Ukraine. | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
The only person that matters here is Anthony Ogogo. Can he would | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
stand what will be the three most torrid moments of his boxing | :07:47. | :07:57. | |
:07:57. | :07:57. | ||
career? A good left hand from Anthony Ogogo. | :07:57. | :08:04. | |
He has to keep his opponent off balance. Just counter attack and | :08:04. | :08:14. | |
:08:14. | :08:16. | ||
try to push him back a little bit. How is his stamina going to last? | :08:17. | :08:26. | |
:08:27. | :08:28. | ||
Good right hand from Anthony Ogogo. And he has got him again. | :08:28. | :08:36. | |
The lovely left hook round the corner. The judges could not have | :08:36. | :08:46. | |
:08:46. | :08:52. | ||
missed that one. Two and three shots, then moved the feet. | :08:52. | :09:00. | |
Again Anthony Ogogo in first with that right hand. His opponent | :09:00. | :09:06. | |
getting a little bit frustrated. That will give him just a few | :09:07. | :09:16. | |
:09:17. | :09:20. | ||
seconds rest and he needed that. Into the last half of what has been | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
a pulsating contest. One of the best contests we have seen it so | :09:25. | :09:35. | |
:09:35. | :09:37. | ||
far. Anthony Ogogo must run. His opponent is not burn to let him of | :09:37. | :09:47. | |
:09:47. | :09:51. | ||
the book. He is caught again. One minute to go. Come on, Anthony, | :09:51. | :09:57. | |
do not let this one slip. He is tiring and this machines from | :09:57. | :10:04. | |
the Ukraine is coming storming forward. | :10:04. | :10:13. | |
Keep him at bay. Keep him at bay and then it moved. | :10:13. | :10:20. | |
What a racket, what a performance from Anthony Ogogo. | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
And what has since agent this would be if he could hang on to win this. | :10:25. | :10:35. | |
:10:35. | :10:39. | ||
It is so close. -- sensation. He needs to score with a couple of | :10:39. | :10:49. | |
:10:49. | :10:57. | ||
shots. The Ukrainian coming forward. Good food work from Anthony Ogogo. | :10:57. | :11:07. | |
:11:07. | :11:07. | ||
And stabbing laughter from the Ukrainian. -- stabbing foot work. | :11:07. | :11:13. | |
There is not very much in this. What a task for the judges. What a | :11:13. | :11:20. | |
performance from Anthony Ogogo. Whatever happens, he has raised his | :11:20. | :11:27. | |
status in world amateur boxing by leaked and bronze. -- leaps and | :11:27. | :11:37. | |
bounds. His coaches very proud of their man. | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
He put in a fantastic display against the best middleweight in | :11:41. | :11:49. | |
the world. This Ukrainian boxer was relentless. | :11:49. | :11:54. | |
This is where he just let himself down a little bit, staying on at | :11:54. | :12:00. | |
the ropes for a split second too long. But a tremendous display of | :12:01. | :12:09. | |
guts and courage. What a contest! What a performance | :12:10. | :12:18. | |
from Anthony Ogogo. The crowd gathering their breath. Gathering | :12:18. | :12:28. | |
:12:28. | :12:29. | ||
their hopes. The Ukrainian reckons he has done enough in the last | :12:29. | :12:39. | |
:12:39. | :12:40. | ||
round. They've really are taking their time. I would not be | :12:40. | :12:50. | |
:12:50. | :12:51. | ||
surprised if this was scored level. They'd take the scores from all | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
five judges and add them up. I think that is what the delay is | :12:56. | :13:06. | |
:13:06. | :13:14. | ||
going to be. It is a little bit frustrating for everyone. It is | :13:14. | :13:24. | |
:13:24. | :13:27. | ||
literally either way. It is so close. If he beats this fellow you | :13:27. | :13:35. | |
would fancy Anthony Ogogo to go on and do what James DeGale did. | :13:35. | :13:45. | |
:13:45. | :13:47. | ||
I think it is going to go to cut back. -- count back. This is the | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
most extraordinary drama that we have seen here in terms of waiting | :13:53. | :14:01. | |
for the scorers. Has Anthony Ogogo been good enough | :14:01. | :14:11. | |
:14:11. | :14:13. | ||
to upset the world number one? Ladies and gentlemen, the judges | :14:13. | :14:20. | |
have scored level and we go to count down. | :14:20. | :14:30. | |
He has got it! He has beaten the world number one! They went to | :14:30. | :14:38. | |
count back. The five judges are asked to dress either of the Red or | :14:39. | :14:46. | |
the blue button and they have come out in favour of Anthony Ogogo! | :14:46. | :14:55. | |
That is the upset of this tournament so far. That was for his | :14:55. | :15:02. | |
dear mother. He has beaten the world champion. Anthony Ogogo, a | :15:02. | :15:12. | |
:15:12. | :15:13. | ||
What an afternoon for Anthony Ogogo and British sport. Eight a huge | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
upset in the middleweight division. A fantastic effort from the man | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
from Norfolk. Look at the seams down here. Six out of six for the | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
British boxers so far -- look at the seams. As I has -- had said, | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
I've got a good feeling. We have a guaranteed silver from a German | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
Gibbons in the judo mat - Germaine Gibbons. And we might upgrade that | :15:40. | :15:46. | |
because we are heading for the double trap shooting for the men. | :15:46. | :15:52. | |
It was a goal for Richard Faulds, but all eyes are on Pippa Wilson. | :15:52. | :16:02. | |
:16:02. | :16:10. | ||
He qualified in -- on Pippa Wilson. qualification. -- Wilson. He is | :16:10. | :16:17. | |
three shots clear of the field. The trio who took the gold, silver and | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
bronze in Beijing have all failed to reach this final. They were | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
expected to provide the sternest opposition, along with the world No. | :16:26. | :16:33. | |
1 from the USA, but he also failed in the qualification, finishing in | :16:33. | :16:40. | |
16th position. This is possibly, despite the fact he qualified in | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
4th, probably the main danger to Wilson. But he has missed the | :16:46. | :16:53. | |
target, one of these two targets early on. He shot impeccably this | :16:53. | :17:00. | |
morning, certainly in the last stage against the Russian. Good | :17:01. | :17:10. | |
:17:11. | :17:19. | ||
shooting at from the Kuwaiti clay used -- the clays are | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
travelling at 100 mph. There is a roar of approval from the crowd at | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
the Royal Artillery Barracks because that was to out of two from | :17:28. | :17:38. | |
:17:38. | :18:07. | ||
Wilson with his first two targets. for him. Pippa Wilson is a great | :18:07. | :18:13. | |
story. His UK funding was cut in 2009. He was working as a waiter in | :18:13. | :18:23. | |
:18:23. | :18:23. | ||
a pub before he was picked up a member -- by a member of the Royal | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
Saudi Arabian family. After that he was looking to start a coaching | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
career. But then at the two men combined, and they hope that the | :18:33. | :18:43. | |
:18:43. | :19:12. | ||
right, ends up on the left-hand side after falling on -- falling | :19:12. | :19:22. | |
:19:22. | :19:29. | ||
finalist here is by 13 years. Aside from the two Russians, the other | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
competitors are old enough to be his father. He has missed both of | :19:36. | :19:43. | |
them there, I think. A double red flag for the Kuwaiti shooter. So | :19:43. | :19:53. | |
:19:53. | :19:57. | ||
that is one of their closest But Peter Wilson is still in pole | :19:57. | :20:07. | |
:20:07. | :20:15. | ||
His score is now 149. If he gets 48 out of 50, he is certain of the | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
gold, no matter what anyone else does in this final. And so far he | :20:20. | :20:30. | |
:20:30. | :20:52. | ||
qualification, a long way behind Peter Wilson. Almost uncatchable by | :20:52. | :21:02. | |
:21:02. | :21:24. | ||
Now up to 148. But providing he can keep making two out of two, Peter | :21:24. | :21:32. | |
Wilson is keeping the other at arm's length. The man from | :21:32. | :21:39. | |
Dorchester or, his first Olympics, but his world ranking is number two. | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
He has really come to prominence in the last 12 months or so. He set a | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
new Finals world record of 198 in Arizona at a World Cup event this | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
year. He is one of the favourites coming into the competition. But he | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
must have been surprised and delighted to see those that he | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
probably thought were his main competitors for by the wayside in | :22:01. | :22:11. | |
:22:11. | :22:16. | ||
qualification. -- fall by the say I thought the Russian would be | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
the main challenger to Peter Wilson but he has already missed a couple | :22:19. | :22:27. | |
of targets in the opening two sets. The Kuwaiti has recovered his | :22:27. | :22:33. | |
composure. That was after missing both targets a couple of rounds ago. | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
A 100% record so far for the Russian, and that continues. So he | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
is the man at the moment he was keeping up the pressure on Great | :22:41. | :22:51. | |
:22:51. | :23:30. | ||
missed one. He has missed one of the two there, so his lead is cut. | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
Cut down to two points, although at the moment the computer is saying | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
he has a three-shot lead. The main scoreboard says he has a two-shot | :23:39. | :23:48. | |
:23:49. | :23:59. | ||
lead. But I am pretty certain that by 13 years. He got into | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
competitive shooting almost by accident, really. Although he did | :24:03. | :24:09. | |
shoot from the age of eight, and really focused on it properly. When | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
he was 13 he had a serious snowboarding injury which prevented | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
him playing his two main lovers of cricket and squash. But he found | :24:18. | :24:26. | |
himself to be a dab hand at shooting. He definitely did not hit | :24:26. | :24:31. | |
the target with one of those previous two, so he's lead is cut | :24:31. | :24:41. | |
:24:41. | :25:07. | ||
has missed one. That opens the door for Peter Wilson to regain his | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
three points advantage, and he does just that. 154 is the score for | :25:13. | :25:23. | |
:25:23. | :25:24. | ||
Peter Wilson. 151 for the Russian. 150 for the Kuwaiti. 149 for the | :25:25. | :25:34. | |
:25:35. | :25:40. | ||
Swede. The rest on one for eight. - of the two targets, so his court | :25:40. | :25:50. | |
:25:50. | :26:00. | ||
the men closest to Wilson that he must be wary of. Again, the Russian | :26:00. | :26:07. | |
has missed the target and his score moves just on to the mark of 150. | :26:07. | :26:17. | |
:26:17. | :26:25. | ||
And his challenge is just petering within one of Wilson, but Wilson | :26:25. | :26:35. | |
:26:35. | :26:43. | ||
score. Four ahead of the Kuwaiti. At this stage, he is virtually | :26:43. | :26:49. | |
guaranteed a medal, but he wants gold. So, of course, do the home | :26:49. | :26:54. | |
nation, Great Britain, looking for a third gold medal of the Olympic | :26:54. | :27:01. | |
Games. Restart the round again with the Hungarian. -- we start the | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
round. He was a surprise qualifier in his first Olympics, at the age | :27:06. | :27:16. | |
:27:16. | :27:28. | ||
shot a maximum in the finals, but neither will do so today. Although | :27:28. | :27:31. | |
he probably needed to if he was going to get into the gold medal | :27:31. | :27:40. | |
position. The total needed for Wilson will have diminished now, | :27:40. | :27:50. | |
:27:50. | :27:52. | ||
because all the athletes have threat to Peter Wilson, who steps | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
up to the centre point of the range. Excellent shooting again from | :27:57. | :28:05. | |
Wilson, taking him to 158. And he is closing in, slowly but surely, | :28:05. | :28:15. | |
:28:15. | :28:15. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds | :28:15. | :28:58. | |
particularly at the speeds they are is the Kuwaiti, shooting now, he | :28:58. | :29:06. | |
was the chief -- who is the chief threat. The Russian her shot very | :29:06. | :29:14. | |
well. And indeed throughout the competition. He continues out there. | :29:14. | :29:21. | |
They were all for him, and an arm in the air, but Peter Russell | :29:21. | :29:28. | |
Wilson takes his total up to 160, striking the targets twice. | :29:28. | :29:32. | |
Remember, these targets are moving away all of the time, so only a | :29:32. | :29:42. | |
:29:42. | :29:59. | ||
limited time in double trap outdoor range. Parts of which in | :29:59. | :30:04. | |
terms of the press areas is are Flooded because of the rains we had | :30:04. | :30:13. | |
earlier. Turned into sunny afternoon. Wind speed fairly light, | :30:13. | :30:20. | |
so good conditions for the men's double trap final here at the Royal | :30:20. | :30:30. | |
:30:30. | :30:39. | ||
Artillery Barracks. Aldeehani to 159. Wilson, 160. With these two | :30:39. | :30:42. | |
targets still to come. He has missed one! He has missed the | :30:42. | :30:51. | |
second there. So he moves on the 161 but his lead now has been cut, | :30:51. | :31:01. | |
:31:01. | :31:25. | ||
from three, to two. Over Mosin. And They were Firth and sixth plate | :31:25. | :31:29. | |
qualifiers. They have been shooting pretty well. Dahlby is the only | :31:29. | :31:35. | |
chuter with a 100 percent record in this final so far. Consequently, he | :31:35. | :31:41. | |
is starting to move up the rankings in terms of the outsiders. Too far | :31:41. | :31:51. | |
:31:51. | :32:02. | ||
here, he ties with Peter Wilson. He is urging the crowd to give him a | :32:02. | :32:07. | |
bit of support, but that is for long hope, because 90% of the | :32:07. | :32:13. | |
audyns are rooting for Peter Wilson, who nervously hits both targets to | :32:13. | :32:23. | |
:32:23. | :32:48. | ||
continue with his two shot lead. who has lost his way just a little | :32:48. | :32:53. | |
bit in the final. And he has missed another target there, missed the | :32:53. | :33:03. | |
:33:03. | :33:09. | ||
two clays as well. Just wondering if the pressure is getting to all | :33:09. | :33:18. | |
the shooters. Not just the gold medal position of course, the | :33:18. | :33:23. | |
medals up for grabs, the Russian again Mosin asking for the crowd | :33:23. | :33:28. | |
support. Peter Wilson, you will hear the roar there, 165 now, for | :33:28. | :33:38. | |
:33:38. | :33:38. | ||
Peter Wilson. 163 for Mosin. And Aldeehani 161. Along with Dahlby. | :33:38. | :33:42. | |
So Peter Wilson of Great Britain has a two shot lead, as we enter | :33:42. | :33:48. | |
the closing stages now, of the men's double trap here at the Royal | :33:48. | :33:54. | |
Artillery Barracks. Two shot lead over Mosin, and a four shot lead | :33:54. | :34:04. | |
:34:04. | :34:25. | ||
over Aldeehani and Dahlby, who is with two out of two. Aldeehani. -- | :34:25. | :34:35. | |
:34:35. | :34:35. | ||
Fokeev. Split second between the two shots. Moss listen want to keep | :34:35. | :34:40. | |
up the pressure here, on Peter Wilson of Great Britain. And his | :34:40. | :34:50. | |
:34:50. | :34:54. | ||
missed the second of the two clays there. So his lead now is cut to | :34:54. | :35:04. | |
just the one point. Wilson on 166. Mosin on 165. Aldeehani 163 and | :35:04. | :35:14. | |
:35:14. | :35:21. | ||
Dahlby 162. Just a pause while we order of shoots never changes in | :35:21. | :35:25. | |
the trap final. Bognar will always start. Dahlby even though he has | :35:25. | :35:33. | |
moved up the order a bit. He will go second. Having qualified second | :35:33. | :35:43. | |
:35:43. | :36:04. | ||
Britain's gold medal him pick hopes. Mosin with two out of two. He keeps | :36:04. | :36:10. | |
appealing for support. I think he is wasting his time! This is man | :36:10. | :36:15. | |
that virtually everybody wants to win, he shoots two out of two to | :36:15. | :36:20. | |
maintain his advantage, so Wilson with 168. Mosin of Russia with 167. | :36:20. | :36:30. | |
:36:30. | :36:30. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds | :36:30. | :37:14. | |
Aldeehani of Kuwait, 165 and Dahlby takes his score on to 167. Which is | :37:14. | :37:22. | |
where Mosin starts. Just the first position right of centre. Two out | :37:22. | :37:27. | |
of to for him. Momentarily. He goes into the lead with 169. Peter | :37:27. | :37:35. | |
Wilson though, with two out of two. And he is now back in the lead, on | :37:35. | :37:42. | |
170. We have 20 shots to go, in the men's double trap final. So Peter | :37:42. | :37:50. | |
Wilson has a one shot lead, over Vasily Mosin, and a three shot lead | :37:50. | :38:00. | |
:38:00. | :38:29. | ||
over Aldeehani of queue wait. -- shooters but Aldeehani missed the | :38:29. | :38:33. | |
second target there. This is Mosin. In second place, only a point | :38:33. | :38:38. | |
behind Great Britain's Peter Wilson now. And he has missed. He has | :38:38. | :38:42. | |
missed, with his second shot there, missed the second clay. And this | :38:42. | :38:47. | |
gives Peter Wilson a chance to open up the lead again to two points and | :38:47. | :38:54. | |
that is an opportunity that he has not wasted. So it's a two point | :38:54. | :38:58. | |
lead again for Peter Wilson at the end of that round. 18 shots | :38:58. | :39:07. | |
remaining. 172 to Wilson, 170 now to Mosin. Third, joint third | :39:07. | :39:15. | |
Aldeehani and Dahlby, on 168. Bognar was one behind, hits two out | :39:15. | :39:25. | |
:39:25. | :39:50. | ||
certainly bronze, possibly silver, the Kuwaiti, now it is Mosin, still | :39:50. | :39:56. | |
the closest challenger to Wilson, and he has missed again. He missed | :39:56. | :40:02. | |
with the first shot there. And Wilson makes his pay, because | :40:02. | :40:07. | |
Wilson has got his lead back out to three again, we are back where we | :40:08. | :40:12. | |
started. After qualification. Peter Wilson of Great Britain leads by | :40:12. | :40:19. | |
three. But of course we are much closer now to the end of the men's | :40:19. | :40:25. | |
double trap competition. Just 16 shots to go, and a three point lead | :40:25. | :40:35. | |
:40:35. | :41:12. | ||
for the home favourite Peter Wilson score up to 172. Mosin has missed | :41:12. | :41:22. | |
:41:22. | :41:28. | ||
with two of his last three shots. to feel the pressure too. A bit of | :41:28. | :41:38. | |
:41:38. | :41:49. | ||
only one behind, but Peter Wilson had the two shots in hand, two out | :41:49. | :41:56. | |
of two, 14 shots to go. He is 14 shots from a gold medal, or | :41:56. | :42:06. | |
:42:06. | :42:36. | ||
Bognar once more. Hungarian makes Fokeev of Russia now, shoots two | :42:36. | :42:44. | |
out of two. And they will keep going like this, until they get to | :42:44. | :42:54. | |
:42:54. | :42:54. | ||
the 50 clays, only 14 shots to go. 12 om of them and Peter Wilson, | :42:54. | :42:59. | |
just needs to keep hitting one both targets. One missed there by Mosin. | :42:59. | :43:05. | |
And this could let him in again. And it has. He has opened up a four | :43:05. | :43:14. | |
point lead now. Peter Wilson, 178, and Vasily Mosin one 17 -- 174, the | :43:15. | :43:19. | |
same as Aldeehani of Kuwait. So it's a pour point lead for Peter | :43:19. | :43:24. | |
Wilson and the shots are running out, and at the moment, it looks | :43:24. | :43:30. | |
like Great Britain are going to win their third gold medal of the | :43:30. | :43:40. | |
London 2012 Olympics. Bognar of Hungary shoots two out of two. | :43:40. | :43:47. | |
Peter Wilson has just missed three so far, in this final. 48 would | :43:47. | :43:54. | |
have guaranteed him gold. Just a maximum he the he can get is 47 but | :43:54. | :43:57. | |
it doesn't matter as other people have missed as well. Aldeehani has | :43:57. | :44:07. | |
:44:07. | :44:24. | ||
missed four times. That is two out his score up to 176. He is two | :44:24. | :44:28. | |
behind Wilson but Wilson has the two shots in hand and it is two out | :44:28. | :44:35. | |
of two for Wilson, he is a maximum of ten shots away from the gold | :44:35. | :44:41. | |
medal. Peter Wilson. He won the 2006 European junior Championships, | :44:41. | :44:47. | |
having only started shooting competitively four months | :44:47. | :44:50. | |
previously. Since then the last six years have been a tale of success | :44:50. | :44:54. | |
for Peter Wilson but this would cap everything. Bognar has missed the | :44:54. | :45:04. | |
:45:04. | :45:10. | ||
second of the two targets there, very well in this final. The best | :45:10. | :45:15. | |
shooter in the final, just missing one target, which might get him a | :45:15. | :45:19. | |
monks below a ranking of medals but it will not get in the gold. But it | :45:19. | :45:24. | |
will not get him the gold, because it has the name of Peter Robert | :45:24. | :45:32. | |
Russell Wilson of Great Britain on it. 10 shots are left for Mosin of | :45:32. | :45:40. | |
Russia and Wilson of Great Britain. And a four shot lead. Cut down to | :45:40. | :45:46. | |
two, but they are in hand for Wilson. And he has missed them | :45:46. | :45:53. | |
both! He has missed them both! Absolutely incredible. His lead has | :45:53. | :46:01. | |
been cut from four to two, half in jest that set of shops. -- in just | :46:01. | :46:08. | |
that set of shots. He must be feeling the pressure. Most | :46:08. | :46:12. | |
uncharacteristic. A wry shake of the head of a camera from Pippa | :46:12. | :46:22. | |
:46:22. | :46:48. | ||
Wilson. Bognar has missed the trying to chase Peter Wilson. He is | :46:48. | :46:57. | |
level with him now. Wilson has two shots in hand. That is after Mosin | :46:57. | :47:03. | |
and Wilson have shot here. Then it will just be six shots remaining. | :47:03. | :47:11. | |
And Mosin has missed one. Vassily Mosin has missed. This is where he | :47:11. | :47:17. | |
needs to step up to the plate, and he has done! Peter Wilson, two out | :47:17. | :47:21. | |
of two. It is spectacular when you hit the middle. All of the powder | :47:21. | :47:26. | |
coming out of the clay, and the expectant galleries now know he is | :47:26. | :47:33. | |
closing in on a gold medal for Great Britain. It is Aldeehani of | :47:33. | :47:40. | |
Kuwait in second position. He is ranked No. 12 and the world. -- in | :47:40. | :47:44. | |
the world. I am sure he is pleased to just reach the final, but now he | :47:44. | :47:51. | |
is the man, the main man, in terms of chasing down Peter Wilson. Only | :47:51. | :47:58. | |
six shots remaining. And his lead over Aldeehani is two, the lead | :47:58. | :48:08. | |
:48:08. | :48:25. | ||
been excellent in this final, by the way. Just one target missed. | :48:25. | :48:33. | |
Fokeev, two out of two for the Russian. The Kuwaiti, Aldeehani, is | :48:33. | :48:39. | |
Peter Wilson's closest challenger, just two behind him. He takes a | :48:39. | :48:49. | |
:48:49. | :48:53. | ||
these are the first two. And he has missed! He has missed with the | :48:53. | :49:00. | |
first one. That helps Peter Wilson's caused no end. Vassily | :49:00. | :49:10. | |
:49:10. | :49:11. | ||
Mosin, on at 179. He hits both and is up to 181, but as it is, | :49:11. | :49:18. | |
Aldeehani, can Peter Wilson open up an advantage? 184. He is three in | :49:18. | :49:24. | |
the lead over those two, but only two in the lead over Dahlby. But | :49:24. | :49:34. | |
:49:34. | :49:35. | ||
very few shops remaining. -- shots. Just four to go. Peter Wilson's | :49:35. | :49:45. | |
:49:45. | :49:53. | ||
His total is 180 with two to go. This man is now the main threat to | :49:53. | :50:03. | |
:50:03. | :50:04. | ||
Peter Wilson. Dahlby of Sweden. He has missed just once in the final. | :50:04. | :50:10. | |
And he maintains the pressure on Wilson, because he goes to 184, the | :50:10. | :50:18. | |
same as Wilson. But Wilson has two shots in hand. Dahlby with just two | :50:18. | :50:28. | |
:50:28. | :50:40. | ||
is Mosin of Russia. But the bottom line is that if Peter Wilson hits | :50:40. | :50:46. | |
both here, he cannot lose in this final. And that he's an almighty | :50:46. | :50:54. | |
roar going up! He hasn't won it yet, not quite, because macro darts -- | :50:54. | :51:01. | |
Dahlby hits both targets, and Wilson misses both, it would go to | :51:01. | :51:06. | |
a shoot off. This is the last round of the men's double trap as the | :51:06. | :51:12. | |
sunshine breaks out at the Royal Artillery Barracks and Great | :51:12. | :51:17. | |
Britain stand on the edge of a gold medal at their home Olympics. This | :51:17. | :51:23. | |
is Dahlby. If he misses either of these... But he hasn't. He is up to | :51:23. | :51:29. | |
186, the same score as Wilson. Now it is a Fokeev of Russia, he is too | :51:29. | :51:39. | |
:51:39. | :51:50. | ||
far behind. What he does here does up to 185. Mosin, two would take | :51:50. | :51:55. | |
him up to 185, and he has got them, but Peter Wilson needs these | :51:55. | :52:01. | |
targets to win gold for Great Britain. And he does it! Peter | :52:01. | :52:07. | |
Wilson has done it! He has won gold. He sinks to his knees. He has won | :52:07. | :52:10. | |
gold for Great Britain, the third gold medal of the game for the host | :52:10. | :52:15. | |
nation. He held his nerve brilliantly, Peter Wilson, and the | :52:15. | :52:20. | |
crowd here at the Royal Artillery Barracks rise to salute this 25- | :52:20. | :52:26. | |
year-old from Dorset. Olympic gold in the men's double trap at the age | :52:26. | :52:31. | |
of just 25. He is a giant of a man, six foot six inches tall. You | :52:31. | :52:36. | |
almost feel at times he could touch out and reached the clays. He has | :52:37. | :52:44. | |
such a height advantage. Delight for Great Britain. Another gold, | :52:44. | :52:50. | |
and well done to Peter Wilson. His full name is up there, Peter Robert, | :52:51. | :53:00. | |
:53:01. | :53:06. | ||
Dahlby, and Vassily Mosin will go into weight shoot-out with | :53:06. | :53:09. | |
Aldeehani of Kuwait -- into a shoot-out. So there will still be | :53:09. | :53:15. | |
some more drama to come here at the Royal Artillery Barracks. Peter | :53:15. | :53:25. | |
Wilson has won gold for Great 5th sensational victory for Peter | :53:25. | :53:34. | |
Wilson, and the final was full of suspense. The 25-year-old son of a | :53:34. | :53:38. | |
Dorset farmer. He is trained by a Saudi prince who put all of his | :53:38. | :53:43. | |
face and training in our shooter. An extraordinary story. We will get | :53:43. | :53:47. | |
more reaction from Peter in a moment, but what her afternoon for | :53:47. | :53:54. | |
British sport. We will be fighting for gold in the judo around 2pm, | :53:54. | :54:00. | |
but there are two British pairs in the canoe slalom, very good medal | :54:00. | :54:06. | |
chances. They were the 6th fastest of the qualifiers, and we will | :54:06. | :54:16. | |
:54:16. | :54:19. | ||
enjoy the final in the company of Bailey and Etty and start getting | :54:19. | :54:29. | |
:54:29. | :54:55. | ||
bronze medallist in the European Championships a couple of years ago. | :54:55. | :54:59. | |
Ranked sixth in the world, coming into the the Olympic Games, they | :54:59. | :55:04. | |
were always going to challenge, but this could be a medal run for Great | :55:04. | :55:10. | |
Britain, just looking a bit slow there, getting through 13. Making | :55:10. | :55:17. | |
it OK, without penalties, through 2 .14 and beyond, and Helen Reeves, | :55:17. | :55:23. | |
you have joined me, this is an encouraging run from Baillie and | :55:23. | :55:28. | |
stot. They will want to make sure they can maintain their speed. If | :55:28. | :55:32. | |
they pick up any penalties. That is a fastest split, the second split | :55:32. | :55:36. | |
they have had as they spin away from 18. This is one of the | :55:36. | :55:40. | |
trickiest parts of the course. Up stream they go, through 19. Helen | :55:41. | :55:43. | |
Reeves is nodding her approval. This is looking good for Great | :55:43. | :55:49. | |
Britain. One up stream gate to go. Tight in and you see Etienne | :55:49. | :55:54. | |
putting the power down as they turn about, back down, one gate to go. | :55:55. | :56:02. | |
Great Britain are flying here, no penalties whatsoever. Bailey and | :56:02. | :56:05. | |
stoth through the finish line -- Etienne Stott and that is the | :56:05. | :56:11. | |
fastest time we have seen thon Olympic course so far in the C2 | :56:11. | :56:13. | |
Olympic course so far in the C2 competition. Absolutely brilliant. | :56:13. | :56:17. | |
Fantastic start for the British pair, now the Chinese and the | :56:17. | :56:21. | |
Polish pair who went next were slower, both incurred penaltys so | :56:21. | :56:25. | |
three pairs remaining and among them David Florence and Richard | :56:25. | :56:28. | |
Hounslow they qualified fastest, they will be going last. It is | :56:29. | :56:35. | |
they will be going last. It is building up beautifully. Back we go. | :56:35. | :56:39. | |
France have been talking about this pair for a long, long time. They | :56:40. | :56:45. | |
were the fastest in the heat, still not as fast as Bailey and Etienne | :56:45. | :56:52. | |
Stott. Nevertheless an accomplished pair indeed. They have got away to | :56:52. | :56:58. | |
a start. They see them putting the power down, where they can, lifting | :56:58. | :57:02. | |
the nose over the wave before gate eight. They rup on the split. As we | :57:03. | :57:06. | |
know, and we have said so many times there is a lot of time to be | :57:06. | :57:10. | |
lost in that middle section. They are going well for France, they are | :57:11. | :57:18. | |
a bit stuck there, Helen. And the man at the front there, he is | :57:18. | :57:26. | |
driving that boat forward. Good steering from Peche. The second | :57:26. | :57:32. | |
split time will give us a good idea as to what is happening. Excellent | :57:32. | :57:36. | |
execution of the last gate. Can they do the same on gate 16? They | :57:36. | :57:40. | |
are in tight and they are away again. We are heading to the second | :57:40. | :57:50. | |
:57:50. | :57:52. | ||
be watching carefully. The French are 1.63 seconds ahead, but they | :57:52. | :57:56. | |
did get stuck there. They were all over the place. They lost a bit of | :57:56. | :58:03. | |
time, but still, the Frenchman at the front driving them forward. | :58:03. | :58:09. | |
this is going to be tight. They need to keep this. The last part, | :58:09. | :58:14. | |
because they have 82nd penalty. big cheer goes up from the | :58:14. | :58:17. | |
grandstand, and you can blame them. This is all about Great Britain | :58:17. | :58:24. | |
hanging on in their -- who can blame them? Tim Baillie and Etienne | :58:24. | :58:31. | |
Stott have a medal for Great Britain. They are in second place, | :58:31. | :58:37. | |
and they do not know whether they have won a medal. But Tim Baillie | :58:37. | :58:41. | |
and Etienne Stott have won at least a bronze medal for the British team, | :58:41. | :58:47. | |
their first medal. It might not be their last, you know, because we | :58:47. | :58:54. | |
still have Richard Hounslow and David France at the start life. -- | :58:54. | :58:57. | |
start line. That was a nerve tingling moment as the two guys | :58:57. | :59:01. | |
threatened the British all the way down, and in just the last few | :59:01. | :59:05. | |
gates they picked up at two second penalty and it was all gone. | :59:05. | :59:09. | |
course is relentless. There is moving all the way to the finish, | :59:09. | :59:12. | |
and you have to make sure you get through every single one of the | :59:12. | :59:19. | |
gates, the 23 gates on the course and the British pairing were the | :59:19. | :59:22. | |
only ones to go down cleanly. you think it was an advantage with | :59:22. | :59:30. | |
them going down first? Well, I think they had their eyes on | :59:30. | :59:35. | |
something special either way. two guys, the two men in the boat, | :59:35. | :59:39. | |
the Slovakian twins. The best paddlers, not just of their | :59:39. | :59:44. | |
generation, but of any generation. They are going for a 4th | :59:44. | :59:54. | |
:59:54. | :59:57. | ||
only in gate three as they drop into four. There is a better start | :59:57. | :00:00. | |
than they had in the semifinal where they had a two second penalty. | :00:00. | :00:05. | |
They will look to drive the boat between seven and eight before they | :00:05. | :00:10. | |
drop down. They are off on the split so far. Almost a second. 0.93. | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
Well, I am not saying it is effortless but they are so well | :00:13. | :00:18. | |
tuned in together, in terms of technique. Coming out of ten. | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
Across the Edy, and this is looking very good for the Hochschorner | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
brother, they are a bit stuck there on the stopper. They might have | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
lost a bit of time. They are tight in and out of gate 13. They look to | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
lift the nose through the wave before 14 which was done very well. | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
Drop down the wave in 15 and now drive into the up stream gate. | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
Tight on the pole. Driving those blades into the water. They never | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
seem to get anxious, they have picked up a two second penalty. And | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
they are behind Bailey an -- Bailey and Stott. The Hochschorner twins | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
are never been beaten, in an Olympic final. They are losing time | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
there. Having to drive back up stream, up through 19, now can they | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
pick up that lost time? On Baillie and Stott of Great Britain? They | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
are still looking cool. They are having to chase the time of Baillie | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
and Stott. There is two gates the go. They punch through the wave at | :01:19. | :01:26. | |
22. It is is going to be close. It is not. Bale laind Stott have a | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
Silver Medal. -- Baillie and Stott have a silver medal. The stadium is | :01:32. | :01:40. | |
going potty here. Etienne Stott and Tim Baillie probably can't believe | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
what has happened here. If anybody was going to beat them, it was | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
going to be the Hochschorner brothers, going for a fourth gold | :01:46. | :01:53. | |
medal in a row. To set themselves up as the greatest paddling pair in | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
history. One of the great Olympian teams in history as well, but it | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
didn't happen, and that means the there is only one pair now can | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
prevent Tim Baillie and Etienne Stott from winning the gold medal. | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
Guess what, they are British. this now means this is going to be | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
our first Olympic Gold, because in canoe slalom Great Britain have | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
never won an Olympic Gold, so the question is will it be Baillie and | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
Stott or Florence and Hounslow. nay can reproduce the performance | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
they set in the semifinals, it was a beautiful performance, it wasn't | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
as fast as Baillie and Stott but it was clean. So here we go, this | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
could be real British history here. David Florence already a silver | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
medallist from four years ago in Beijing in the C1 event and Richard | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
Hounslow. And they are chasing the time by their friends and training | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
partners, Tim Baillie and Etienne Stott who currently lead this C2 | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
final. Keeping it tight round the poles there, David Leaning off gate | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
four. Setting up the line from seven to eight. Richard having to | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
duck off gate eight. They are up 1.01 on the split. But they will | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
have to maintain it through the most difficult parts of the course. | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
Etienne and Tim went brilliantly from this point forward and they | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
have certainly lost a bit of time there. Coming out of ten. This is | :03:20. | :03:27. | |
where Baillie and Stott really won it, I think. Set the fastest time | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
so far, Florence and Hounslow a bit untidy, would have lost a lot of | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
time but not enough to push them below the Hochschorners at the | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
moment. We see the next split time. What shape are the British pair in? | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
Florence and Hounslow have got to keep it together. Working hard | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
together on the exit of gate 16 and 17, they will be tight to the split | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
of Bailey and Stott and they are. They rup on the split. This would | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
be an incredible performance, they have shown immense promise all year, | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
that was brilliant coming up to the gate. Everybody is cheering, | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
everybody in the commentary area is screaming here. For David Florence | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
and Richard Hounslow. Going up through 21. One stroke, two stroke, | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
out into the middle of the course. Two to go. No fault. This could be | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
gold and silver for Great Britain. Can David Florence and Richard | :04:22. | :04:30. | |
Hounslow win it? Oh, my goodness, they have got a Silver Medal. There | :04:30. | :04:40. | |
:04:40. | :04:40. | ||
are the Olympic champions. A last medallist. In the last event. A | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
first medallist in the last event. What am I talking about? We don't | :04:44. | :04:51. | |
just get one, we get two medals. Absolutely incredible, and in the | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
process, they have beaten the greatest competitors of all time in | :04:55. | :05:01. | |
this event. The Hochschorner twins, from Slovakia, who would have | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
believed it before today. Wonderful, wonderful stuff. That is a real | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
shot in the arm, not just for these gentlemen but for the whole of | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
British canoeing, the British canoeing union will be totally | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
delighted, what a lovely moment as well, for the men who just finished | :05:20. | :05:27. | |
there. David Florence of course didn't make the final of his event. | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
Neither did Richard Hounslow but they have picked up a Silver Medal | :05:31. | :05:38. | |
here and we can celebrate a gold and silver and our latest Olympic | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
champions, Tim Baillie and Stott Stott. Wonderful, wonderful stuff | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
here. -- Etienne Stott. Wonderful stuff here Attlee valley. I am | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
speechless. I can't believe what has happened out there. Canoe | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
slalom's first ever gold medal and the first medal for canoe for the | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
C2 category, and two gold medals, we, sorry, two medal, we always | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
knew with two boats in this final, the odds were good, but the odds | :06:05. | :06:12. | |
have proven to be very very good. We are fumbling over our words | :06:12. | :06:20. | |
because it is sum a fabulous moment. -- such. I think the whole of the | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
coach coaching team will be in the LeeValley arena before too long. | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
This is what dreams are made of, and this is what makes Olympic | :06:32. | :06:38. | |
competition very special indeed. Absolutely. Raise astonishing. I | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
mentioned the sluice gates opening, well, a trickle of medals is now a | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
raging torrent, look at this. Great Britain catapulting themselves up | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
to fifth place, on the medal table, four golds, four silver, four | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
bronze medal so far. What an afternoon at the Lee Valley | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
Whitewater Centre. Let us get the reaction with Jonathan Edwards, an | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
amazing hour there. I have David and Richard alongside me. Olympic | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
silver medallist, I can hardly put into word what is this is like? | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
That was the most difficult start line we have sat on. Going off last, | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
it wasn't easy, we knew the times were going well, but we had to try | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
and focus on our own run, we did it. We put in a good run. We were | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
pleased. We were on the wrong side. But you know, to win an Olympic | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
medal, we are certainly not disappointed. It is fantastic, you | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
know, sitting on the start line there, we knew that Great Britain | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
had a gold medal, basically, which on its own was fantastick, we are, | :07:43. | :07:50. | |
you know, one team, it is all about Team GB but we wanted to put a | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
result in, and we attacked it hard all the way down, it was probably | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
just a sprint to the finish, just a bit there, and then, you know, that | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
is the difference between Olympic champions and silver medallist, but | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
you know, it is fantastick. Brilliant. You talk about Olympic | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
champion, let us bring them in. Sorry to shuffle you out of the way. | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
Keep closer. This is amazing. You are the Olympic champions. It is | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
weird. It doesn't seem quite like that is what could be happening, | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
but this morning, we did known what could happen. It could have been a | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
disaster and now it's a dream, and, oh, I don't know... I don't think | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
surreal covers it. It is incredible. I was really happy, we are going to | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
be in the top six when we made the final and then thought if we could | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
finish fourth that could be cool, we could have the result as Nick | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
our coach got in Sydney. To win is mad, and for these boys to finish | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
second, I don't know. Slalom race, and that has made up for it. There | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
has been huge pressure on the team, the first few days didn't go so | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
bell, to come out and do this shows huge heart. We did feel the | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
pressure. I am not sure what these guys felt. I felt we needed snog go | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
right today. We needed to get boats in the finals and we have strong | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
boats. These guys and us, we in our sport there is nothing taken for | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
granted. To get into the final, that was amazing, and you know, you | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
know, over a year ago my should ir, I had surgery on my shoulder, I | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
thought, you know, could that be, that path along from there to now. | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
that path along from there to now. It is like it. I can't get round it. | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
It... When you finished that run, you looked at your time. You were | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
paddling in front of me. What did you think that was good enough for? | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
We didn't remember. We had no idea what the times were. We only looked | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
how far we were off Dave and Rich. We were asking Nick if it was a | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
decent time. The run we had, I was hoping it might be good enough for | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
a medal. You can never time. It was a high quality final. The boats are | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
good and our sport is so... Inconsistent I guess you could say, | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
hard to be consistent. You never know, I didn't expect that, but... | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
Two bits of history, first ever Olympic gold medal, for canoe | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
slalom and the you beat the Hochschorners. They are great | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
champion, they are amazing athlete, and they are our models and when we | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
watch, they are our reference point, and to beet them, it is tough, they | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
had a record to beat today and they have just, they are an amazing | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
athlete, we have managed to beat them but it takes nothing off their | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
achievements. They are a fantastic crew: They are still the best crew | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
in history, and you know, well, it is good we... You are the best C2 | :10:46. | :10:52. | |
crew today. Yes, exactly. I mean, that, I am am happy about that. | :10:52. | :11:01. | |
Both of them 32. Tim from Aberdeen and Etienne from Manchester. His | :11:01. | :11:06. | |
much mum is French Canadian. Just before we saw that we saw Peter | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
Wilson landing his gold in the double trap shooting, the first | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
gold medal, indeed the first med offal any kind in the shooting | :11:13. | :11:21. | |
events since 2000.. Medal of any kind. Let us get his reaction tho | :11:21. | :11:26. | |
that tense Vic from. You could sew what that meant to you. It meant a | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
huge amount. It is really difficult. I watched the games and I watched | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
us win a couple of gold medals and you watch the guys talking and they | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
say, it is just impossible to talk about it and it really is. It, it | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
was an emotional rollercoaster, but there are a few people I have to | :11:43. | :11:49. | |
thank. There are a lot. I won't say it now because I will go on forever, | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
but mainly obviously the Britishing shooting management National | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
Lottery and without a shadow of a doubt my coach. There is no doubt I | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
would not be here today if it wasn't for him. So a massive thank | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
you. And mum and dad and my girlfriend, a huge thanks. You were | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
looking up to the crowd to see if you can find them. I don't know | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
where they are. Dad is probably hiding miles away. But what a | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
feeling! What a rush! When it went down to one point, that lead your | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
heart must have been pounding? thought I will allow myself to look | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
back at the board on the fourth pair and I missed the pair and I | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
thought, I kept going, I thought you know what I came in wa lead, a | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
possibility, got to peg three, had a look, realised I needed to shoot | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
the rest. What a feeling. It, I really don't know what to say. | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
Olympic gold medallist. I am. That is weird to say that. I am an | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
Olympic gold medallist. Congratulations. Well done. Well | :12:49. | :12:56. | |
done! Well done. An amazing victory there, at the Royal Artillery | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
barrack, I tell you what, two gold medals a silver and a guaranteed | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
silver with Gemma's turn to come. I have to say that is probably one of | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
the most envaiting hour-and-a-halfs I have spent. It is sports you | :13:10. | :13:14. |
