:00:57. > :01:03.hour. We have coverage of the semi- finals of handball, I will be
:01:03. > :01:07.talking to the President of the IOC, Jacques Rogge, and before that, the
:01:07. > :01:14.headlines. There is more good news for Britain today.
:01:14. > :01:19.Britain's men and women 470 crews picked up the silver medals meaning
:01:19. > :01:23.the sailors will finish with a gold medal and four silvers.
:01:23. > :01:29.Britain's Luke Campbell will fight for gold after reaching the final
:01:29. > :01:35.of the bantamweight category. Anthony Ogogo got bronze earlier.
:01:35. > :01:39.Great Britain's women beat New Zealand 3-1 to win the bronze medal
:01:39. > :01:42.and pick up the nation's first hockey medal for 20 years.
:01:42. > :01:47.Lutalo Muhammad suffered a disappointing defeat in his
:01:47. > :01:57.taekwondo quarter-final but he does have a chance at bronze by the
:01:57. > :02:13.
:02:13. > :02:18.repechage. It looks as though we have yet
:02:18. > :02:22.another exciting evening ahead of us. One more night of athletics
:02:22. > :02:26.before the stadium is prepared for the closing ceremony. When
:02:26. > :02:31.Sebastian Coe and his team were awarded the Games back in 2005, he
:02:31. > :02:36.promised that London would leave a legacy and inspire a generation.
:02:36. > :02:41.Fullback, who needed the sport's biggest stars to perform well on
:02:41. > :02:47.the world stage and boy, have they delivered. How can the Olympic
:02:47. > :02:53.Games get any more incredible? teenager kicking superstar from
:02:53. > :03:00.North Wales is the Olympic champion. And he does it, Peter Wilson has
:03:00. > :03:07.done it, he has won gold! You are an Olympic champion, you are and
:03:07. > :03:13.the Olympic champion. It is a golden triumph for Andy Murray.
:03:13. > :03:19.Unbelievable! Everybody in the crowd can proudly say, I was there.
:03:19. > :03:29.Nicola Adams has just made history. Jessica Ennis is the Olympic
:03:29. > :03:30.
:03:30. > :03:36.champion. The champion becomes a legend!
:03:36. > :03:38.Wonderful images. There have been some memorable moments. Let's hear
:03:38. > :03:42.what the President of the International Olympic Committee
:03:42. > :03:47.thinks so far, are welcome to Jacques Rogge, lovely to see you
:03:47. > :03:52.again. First of all, your impressions of London 2012? I am a
:03:52. > :03:57.very grateful man for everything which has been achieved. London
:03:57. > :04:07.made promises seven years ago in Singapore but they have delivered
:04:07. > :04:07.
:04:07. > :04:09.much more than we expected. When you say much more, what? There is
:04:09. > :04:16.the intractable issue that the organising committee cannot
:04:16. > :04:21.organise but it has to deliver. The kindness of the volunteers. The
:04:21. > :04:27.kindness also of the people in the street when you walk through London.
:04:27. > :04:34.This is a city partying. And also the crowds, the spectators. I think
:04:34. > :04:40.it has been amazing. Of all the venues, the Olympic Stadium, to
:04:40. > :04:44.have 80,000 people and therefore a morning session, is unheard-of.
:04:44. > :04:49.is unheard of. It is reassuring for the future of sport. We believe
:04:49. > :04:53.sport will be important for the development of youth. What you have
:04:53. > :04:56.shown here is very encouraging. talk about the legacy and the youth,
:04:56. > :05:04.it is lovely when you look around the Olympic Park, it is all
:05:04. > :05:09.families. Yes, it is families, it is an ideal whale -- an ideal way
:05:09. > :05:15.to enjoy sport. I am a happy man. Had you been impressed with the
:05:15. > :05:19.venues? It is lovely to see the kids with their faces painted. The
:05:19. > :05:23.tickets have been sold and every venue has been full but London has
:05:23. > :05:30.looked wonderful, the weather has been kind but all the venues from
:05:31. > :05:35.Horse Guards Parade to hide Park. The venues are iconic, definitely.
:05:35. > :05:41.But they also well run. The important thing is that the venues
:05:41. > :05:45.are sustainable. We will not leave any white elephant after the Games.
:05:45. > :05:49.After the eight -- out of the eight sports venues, six already have
:05:49. > :05:54.tenants. This is an important aspect. I know that was an issue
:05:54. > :06:02.because it has happened in the past? It has happened in the past
:06:02. > :06:07.but unfortunately he around there. -- here and there. We had issues
:06:07. > :06:11.where the legacy and sustainability was not considered enough will stop
:06:11. > :06:16.you created a legacy company which I believe is a good way to handle
:06:16. > :06:22.this. I would like your opinion on the opening ceremony. It had a lot
:06:22. > :06:26.of humour and also quite spectacular. I remember discussing
:06:26. > :06:30.with Sebastian at the opening ceremony in Beijing and the closing
:06:30. > :06:34.ceremony in Beijing at his intention was to go another way.
:06:34. > :06:39.Not to try to emulate China because this is not possible given the size
:06:39. > :06:44.of the population, and he said to me, this will be a British opening
:06:44. > :06:49.ceremony and it was in every sense of the word. What Danny Boyle has
:06:49. > :06:53.done was absolutely fantastic. Yes, the British sense of humour was
:06:53. > :07:01.there with Mr Bean and the Queen's parachute, it was fantastic.
:07:01. > :07:07.think that does set the tone for the Games. It has set the tone. It
:07:07. > :07:11.is for friendly, family, easy-going. Talk us through some of the events.
:07:11. > :07:19.What have you enjoyed watching? enjoyed watching many, too many to
:07:19. > :07:24.name but definitely Usain Bolt in the 100 metres and the 200m. David
:07:24. > :07:31.Rudisha yesterday evening. This was majestic. He has a strike which is
:07:31. > :07:41.so beautiful. -- he had a stride. Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte in
:07:41. > :07:50.the swimming pool. You had Ben Ainslie in Weymouth. But many other
:07:50. > :07:54.events. These were fantastic games. I know you are a big fan of Ainslie
:07:54. > :07:58.and you love sailing, you said even when he won his third gold medal
:07:58. > :08:08.that this achievement was bigger than Michael Phelps, what do you
:08:08. > :08:09.
:08:09. > :08:16.feel about him winning four? Ben is the best sailor of all time. He has
:08:16. > :08:23.now superseded the legendary Danish sailor. Benn has won for gold
:08:24. > :08:27.medals. He is the best sailor of his generation. He is the very good
:08:27. > :08:35.sailor. I'm modestly sailed in the same class in the Olympic Games so
:08:35. > :08:39.I know what it takes. I was never able to win, he has won for.
:08:39. > :08:44.said it Jonas Hogh-Christiansen made him angry. They should not
:08:44. > :08:49.have done. You mentioned Usain Bolt but I owed heard that you do not
:08:49. > :08:55.consider him a legend yet. He is everything, he is an icon, a legend,
:08:56. > :09:01.the best sprinter of all time. The description of her career is
:09:01. > :09:05.something that you do at the end of the Korea. I believe that if he is
:09:05. > :09:13.spared from injuries and if he can do one or two games more, that he
:09:13. > :09:20.might have more medals than all the other champions such as Carl Lewis.
:09:20. > :09:25.So he has still got a lot to prove. He is 25. I think there is a
:09:25. > :09:33.possibility of two more games, if he is spared from injury, if he can
:09:33. > :09:38.keep his motivation, he can get to nine medals. It has been incredible.
:09:38. > :09:42.And it is not over. There is still the relay and they have chances.
:09:42. > :09:48.Given that they were one, two and three yesterday. As long as they
:09:48. > :09:51.get the baton round, they are the only winners. It was a big moment
:09:51. > :09:55.for us yesterday when Nicola Adams became the first woman to win
:09:55. > :10:00.Olympic gold in boxing and there were incredible scenes down at the
:10:00. > :10:05.ExCel arena, for her and Katie Taylor who won yesterday. Yes, I
:10:05. > :10:08.was there. The atmosphere was unbelievable. We are very happy
:10:08. > :10:12.because we deliberately included women's boxing because we thought
:10:12. > :10:16.it was the time to do it. We have been criticised by people who said
:10:16. > :10:20.that boxing was not a sport for women and the women were not good
:10:20. > :10:26.enough to compete at the Olympic Games. I believe we have been
:10:26. > :10:30.vindicated yesterday by the success. Not only the crowd, all the
:10:30. > :10:35.specialists say this was the time. Their speed, power and technical
:10:35. > :10:39.ability, lots of people had doubts but they proved them wrong, a great
:10:39. > :10:45.advert for women's boxing and women's sport. Is there anything
:10:45. > :10:51.you feel has not worked in London? No, everything has worked apart
:10:51. > :10:59.from minute details which we were able to solve very quickly. It has
:10:59. > :11:03.been a great success. Organisation wise, but also the performances
:11:03. > :11:08.which an organiser cannot determine. If you look at the level of the
:11:08. > :11:12.competitions and the level of the result, it is fantastic. And also
:11:12. > :11:18.Great Britain being the host nation has done so well, that helps.
:11:18. > :11:23.is something we always said to the BOA and to LOCOG, I said to
:11:23. > :11:27.Sebastian Coe and, Monaghan, please give us British medals up front, we
:11:27. > :11:32.need medals on day one all day two. We had to wait until day two but
:11:32. > :11:38.from then on, what an acceleration. We cannot follow any more, I
:11:38. > :11:43.believe you must be at 56 off 57. By the time we leave the studio we
:11:43. > :11:48.will probably be over 60! probably will be! You talked about
:11:48. > :11:51.the legacy and the venues, some of them will not stay here, they are
:11:51. > :11:56.temporary stadiums which will be moved to other parts of Great
:11:56. > :12:00.Britain. Yes, that is an intelligent use of the temporary
:12:00. > :12:07.stance. If you have no need to have it in the city which has organised
:12:07. > :12:11.the games, they can be located in other cities. I think we have
:12:11. > :12:19.thrown down the gauntlet to Rio? You have done a fantastic job and
:12:19. > :12:25.it is not over yet. There are still two days to go. I will have a very
:12:25. > :12:29.warm speech at the closing ceremony. That will mean a lot to have one
:12:29. > :12:34.who has worked so hard and to everyone who is watching. Thank you
:12:34. > :12:39.for joining us. That is a wonderful view to see so many people enjoying
:12:39. > :12:45.the Olympic Games. It is unbelievable. Thank you.
:12:45. > :12:50.To we talked about medals, 244 medals have been awarded, that
:12:50. > :12:58.means 58 to go. For many athletes, it is not just whether you win, but
:12:58. > :13:02.how you celebrate. Gold, the golden moment, everyone
:13:02. > :13:08.wants it but what do you do when you have won it? Who has done the
:13:08. > :13:13.most stylish celebration of London 2012? After all, they have had four
:13:13. > :13:20.years to think about it. We have had some crackers so far. German
:13:20. > :13:24.discus thrower, Robert Harting went over the hurdles. Ben Ainslie
:13:24. > :13:30.pushed the boat out, literally lighting up the Weymouth coastline.
:13:30. > :13:35.We have had splashing swimmers, track hissing, medal biting, flag
:13:35. > :13:41.waving, shock and or at the rowing and if we want commitment to the
:13:41. > :13:46.cause, it does not get better than dancing Denise and the boys in the
:13:46. > :13:54.studio. But which brightest moments have shone for the fans? Was it
:13:54. > :14:02.this? Make some noise for the screamers. Or is your money on the
:14:02. > :14:08.move at there have been calling the moult Bott. It has gathered
:14:08. > :14:13.momentum. Feel the Love, Team GB, pure passion from Pendleton. The
:14:13. > :14:18.moment the sweetheart of the track gave us her heart. There is plenty
:14:19. > :14:27.of pointing as well. Andy Murray started it. If you do not want to
:14:27. > :14:33.look up, hit the deck, cover your eyes, lie back and think of Britain.
:14:33. > :14:41.You have just won Gold. Sir Chris Hoy likes to keep it
:14:41. > :14:46.simple, old school. Chris Hoy get the gold medal! He loves a hug as
:14:46. > :14:53.well. And we have seen lots of hugging. Most of it has been done
:14:53. > :15:00.by Sir Steve Redgrave. Keep on hugging, Sir Steve. And they have
:15:00. > :15:04.been tears as well. It has been emotional. But there is one
:15:04. > :15:12.celebration, one athlete which has captured the imagination with this,
:15:12. > :15:15.his signature move. The bolt. So, for all you young aspiring athletes
:15:15. > :15:25.out there, it is great to dream about your golden moment but you
:15:25. > :15:27.
:15:27. > :15:35.will need to think about what you It has been the most famous
:15:35. > :15:43.celebration but if Mo wins tomorrow, maybe we will see his move tomorrow.
:15:43. > :15:53.And now to the handle. -- the handball. This afternoon, in the
:15:53. > :16:09.
:16:09. > :16:19.Basketball Arena, Sweden are could be recovered. Sweden get the
:16:19. > :16:48.
:16:48. > :16:58.throw. 14 minutes played here in by their keep -- key players so far.
:16:58. > :17:20.
:17:20. > :17:30.And now cutting inside and he has given away the free-throw. He has
:17:30. > :17:32.
:17:32. > :17:42.their team for all they are worth. They are trying to lift them as
:17:42. > :17:44.
:17:44. > :17:54.they go through the pack. And it is a throw-in to Hungary. They will
:17:54. > :18:05.
:18:05. > :18:15.see if this helps move Sweden back. standing. He comes up and finds
:18:15. > :18:16.
:18:16. > :18:26.gaps in the defence. Sweden still reading. But just by two goals. --
:18:26. > :18:26.
:18:26. > :19:10.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 44 seconds
:19:10. > :19:20.substitutions between defence and bogged down in the defence. Before
:19:20. > :19:25.
:19:25. > :19:35.he can get back out, the Swede stolen on the rebound. They did
:19:35. > :19:40.
:19:40. > :19:50.substitutions between attack and defence so he has to slot in and
:19:50. > :19:59.
:19:59. > :20:06.their good, strong player. Loathed to make a quick substitution.
:20:06. > :20:16.Sweden will take advantage while he goes off. Quick acceleration into
:20:16. > :20:22.
:20:22. > :20:32.the wind. And saved! The 5th one by him. Too many steps there and the
:20:32. > :20:38.
:20:38. > :20:44.ball is out quickly! And they do it off Iceland. But he is hobbling
:20:44. > :20:52.back up. He is remonstrating with the referee, saying, I was injured
:20:52. > :20:57.down there and I am getting no help whatsoever! He is on a 43% saved
:20:57. > :21:02.rate. He has gone storming off behind the bench. Whether the
:21:02. > :21:12.medical staff will give him treatment... And it looks like he
:21:12. > :21:19.
:21:19. > :21:28.as the Hungarian bench looks on, quite bemused. There is the
:21:28. > :21:33.pressure on him. He jumps... And as he landed, it is on the landing he
:21:33. > :21:41.seems to have hurt himself. Nobody else involved. Just an awkward
:21:41. > :21:51.landing. We will have to wait and see if he comes back on again.
:21:51. > :22:01.
:22:01. > :22:11.Whether he has pulled a hamstring ball of way it on these attacks.
:22:11. > :22:23.
:22:23. > :22:33.And saved again! -- giving them in... And I think he landed on his
:22:33. > :22:34.
:22:34. > :22:44.own player. It could be his ankle. The two Swedish coaches are in
:22:44. > :22:46.
:22:46. > :22:51.discussion. They had a four goal lead at one point. That is a sad
:22:51. > :22:59.sight and this could be a huge loss for Hungary. He has scored eight so
:22:59. > :23:08.far. Four of them were penalties. He is hobbling off and the Swede
:23:08. > :23:18.limbs off as well. The hamstring, I'm afraid. Well, this is an ankle
:23:18. > :23:49.
:23:49. > :23:58.injury. He jumped and he came down he was held up. Free-throw and
:23:58. > :24:08.Sweden keep possession. Hungary still only 51% success rate for the
:24:08. > :24:11.
:24:11. > :24:21.shooting. But the Swedes on 61%. Sweden have scored their 23 goals
:24:21. > :24:25.
:24:25. > :24:35.from only 41 shots. And a foul there. This is the second top
:24:35. > :24:37.
:24:37. > :24:45.scorer for Sweden, with 42 goals. And now a change in keeper. There
:24:45. > :24:55.is the unfortunate injury and you wonder if his tournament is now
:24:55. > :25:08.
:25:08. > :25:18.to take a chance. Blasted into the goal. And a cheer. As he turns the
:25:18. > :25:19.
:25:19. > :25:22.wear, the Hungarian has gone back in goal. -- as he turns away. And
:25:22. > :25:27.he streams out and looks for support. But the Hungarians have
:25:27. > :25:31.got back into defence very quickly. They learned their lesson from the
:25:31. > :25:41.first half and they have been working really hard getting back in
:25:41. > :26:02.
:26:02. > :26:12.sub. Again, some are necessary two- minute suspensions. -- some
:26:12. > :26:18.
:26:19. > :26:24.the game. Sweden have a power play now for the next two minutes. The
:26:24. > :26:30.Hungarians, relentless in supporting their team. A free throw
:26:30. > :26:38.and he looks over him angrily as if to say, you are holding on to me.
:26:38. > :26:42.Trying to make it look like a defensive foul. Going wide and they
:26:42. > :26:52.are trying to isolate him with their defence. Looks like it is
:26:52. > :26:54.
:26:54. > :27:02.working at the moment. The third goal for him. The 31-year-old,
:27:02. > :27:12.scored over 200 poles for Hungary with 18 performances. -- over 200
:27:12. > :27:32.
:27:33. > :27:40.and he gets his third! Eight minutes remaining. It is now the
:27:40. > :27:50.Swedes who are fluffing their lines. Another power-play. He puts it wide.
:27:50. > :28:10.
:28:10. > :28:19.And they are back to within one. time-out. Pleading with them...
:28:19. > :28:29.Don't give the ball away cheaply! And there's the captain trying to
:28:29. > :28:33.
:28:33. > :28:43.say it a few words as well. He also played for Germany. Nothing quite
:28:43. > :28:48.
:28:49. > :28:57.on song here in the second half. Five so far. And the stationary off
:28:57. > :29:05.the penalty shot. And the emotions of the coach. In a handball coach
:29:05. > :29:13.is not good for your blood pressure! -- being a handball coach.
:29:13. > :29:18.He cuts it the other way, and no mistake this time! He gets his 5th.
:29:18. > :29:21.The 31-year-old from Atletico Madrid. And in a few seconds,
:29:21. > :29:31.hungry will be back to full strength. They just have to be
:29:31. > :29:47.
:29:48. > :29:57.been a more potent force. Here he comes. That was nearly an attacking
:29:58. > :30:17.
:30:17. > :30:22.The goalkeeper says, no, it didn't. Let's see. He falls on the ball and
:30:22. > :30:32.it has got to cross the line complete the. There is so much glue
:30:32. > :30:32.
:30:32. > :31:18.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 44 seconds

:31:28. > :31:43.
:31:43. > :31:50.that he is on two two minutes suspensions. The fans are getting
:31:50. > :31:55.more raucous in the hall. They sense a comeback. One goal in it.
:31:55. > :32:05.The last five minutes of the game remaining. He is through. It was

:38:42. > :38:52.cannot believe it. One minute and eight seconds to go. Sweden are on

:44:26. > :44:32.Nobody seemed to be coming back at him at all. A very dominant

:45:12. > :45:18.is plenty of raw power there. 200m is difficult to make sure you

:46:21. > :46:26.gold for Great Britain. -- and they Wow! So that is what we are going
:46:27. > :46:34.to go on, and it will probably go slightly quicker than you! It is
:46:34. > :46:44.the Miami Vice dream come true. Welcome! Thank you very much. This
:46:44. > :46:48.
:46:48. > :46:51.is what makes it all the more What we can't understand, why on
:46:51. > :46:57.earth with two canoeists on to come out in a boat? I would have thought
:46:57. > :47:07.that is the last thing you want to do! Oh, feel the thrill of that
:47:07. > :47:14.
:47:14. > :47:20.speed on the water. That is what it Canoeing, when did it start?
:47:20. > :47:23.started when I was pretty young. Maybe 11 or 12 in the Scouts. And
:47:23. > :47:28.the Scout leaders put me in a canoe and it fully filled up because I
:47:28. > :47:33.could not swim at that point! I had never learned to swim. They showed
:47:33. > :47:37.me around on the river and it was brilliant. What do you love about
:47:37. > :47:40.the sport? When you get it right, you were using the power of the
:47:40. > :47:46.water and everything you are putting in his from what the water
:47:46. > :47:50.is giving you. And you are just flying down the river. So you won
:47:50. > :47:57.the gold medal and yet you were just sort of happy to be at the
:47:57. > :48:02.Olympics, in a way? Is that correct? I had a very serious
:48:02. > :48:05.injury a few years ago and I had to have shoulder surgery to fix it.
:48:06. > :48:11.But then, this was the London Olympics and I thought, we have got
:48:12. > :48:21.to find a way to get ourselves into the race. And let's have a crack at
:48:21. > :48:27.this because it is not going to happen again. Let's go all out.
:48:27. > :48:32.went first and a suppose once you had set that time, everybody us who
:48:32. > :48:37.competed, you thought, they have to mess up. We just watched the story
:48:37. > :48:40.unfold. We are friends with everybody so it is really better
:48:40. > :48:50.Swede. We would like them to be good but only fractionally less
:48:50. > :48:52.
:48:52. > :49:00.good! If when did you know it could be gold? It is hard to say. The
:49:01. > :49:08.Slovak champions were there for their 4th historic champions.
:49:08. > :49:12.for them to go behind us, that was a shock. And once they were on
:49:12. > :49:20.course and we definitely had gold or Silva, it would be the top
:49:20. > :49:29.British crews on both steps of the podium. Or some! -- it would have
:49:30. > :49:36.been awesome. My coach was next to me and died kissed him! It was
:49:36. > :49:40.bristly! There was no time for thinking about it. It was a blur
:49:40. > :49:46.because there was not enough... If you had a camera on the side, that
:49:46. > :49:50.would have been nice. But it all happened so, so quickly. And the
:49:50. > :49:55.great thing for you, wherever you go for the rest of your lives,
:49:55. > :50:00.people will introduce you as Olympic champions. It doesn't seem
:50:00. > :50:05.like it should be happening to us! Living the dream, as they say. That
:50:05. > :50:12.is what is happening right now. That looked like fun! Enjoy your
:50:12. > :50:16.gold medals. Well done to them. No speedboats allowed down Weymouth
:50:16. > :50:20.and Portland. But they were moving pretty quickly today because I am
:50:20. > :50:25.pleased to say the wind had picked up and medals were up for grabs.
:50:25. > :50:29.And I am pleased to say, good news for Britain.
:50:29. > :50:35.We knew this morning that British sailors would win two medals but we
:50:35. > :50:42.did not know the colours. And Hannah Mills was sailing with
:50:42. > :50:47.Saskia Clark, who walked away from Beijing with nothing. In the men's
:50:47. > :50:53.470, Scotland's Luke Patience sailing with his best mate, Stuart
:50:53. > :51:03.before, were in a battle with Australia. To win gold, they had to
:51:03. > :51:09.
:51:09. > :51:14.them and Australia to win. We can see the line there, looking for
:51:14. > :51:18.Australia. The British team attacked the Australians and as
:51:18. > :51:25.both boats head out to the right hand side of the course, it is the
:51:25. > :51:30.British team who have the stronger start. A slow, tense first leg but
:51:30. > :51:37.it was going to plan for the Brits. This is perfect for them because
:51:37. > :51:41.there is a boat between them. Between them and the Australians.
:51:41. > :51:49.Downwind, the Brits lost the lead. They needed to change their
:51:49. > :51:55.strategy. And the British have gained. To win gold, they need to
:51:55. > :52:04.overtake the Australians and have a boat between them. Can they do it?
:52:04. > :52:14.Leg three, time to attack. A vital cross. The pressure, the intensity
:52:14. > :52:20.
:52:20. > :52:30.Australia. Well, in the next few minutes, they will know, but now it
:52:30. > :52:30.
:52:30. > :52:36.is Great Britain on the back foot. Patients didn't give up. A tense
:52:36. > :52:40.race but the Australians, downwind, slipped past. Great Britain, a
:52:40. > :52:50.superbly Olympic competition. We are proud of you. A Olympics silver
:52:50. > :52:55.for Great Britain and it is a great First Games, a silver medal.
:52:55. > :53:01.Fantastic! This is so good because it has been three, four years hard
:53:01. > :53:07.work together and 15 years up there. And we are here, standing on an
:53:07. > :53:13.Olympic podium. It is not a gold but we have plenty of time. We are
:53:13. > :53:18.young boys. But for now, enjoy the moment. Stuart is an absolute
:53:18. > :53:22.legend and we are happy, happy boys. A happy boy is just got a lot
:53:22. > :53:29.happier! Straight off the podium with medals around their necks. The
:53:29. > :53:35.smile is even bigger than before! Yes. That is what you dream about,
:53:35. > :53:40.that moment a couple of minutes ago. The winter training for hours and
:53:40. > :53:47.hours, and to finally do it, physically, after so many years of
:53:47. > :53:50.dreaming of doing it, that is amazing. Already thinking about Rio,
:53:50. > :53:57.but to share those last four years to go back and a moment on the
:53:57. > :54:01.podium, that is up there, Stuart? Absolutely. We went out there today
:54:01. > :54:11.and raised our hearts out. We got up on the podium just then and it
:54:11. > :54:16.
:54:16. > :54:20.was something else. It felt so good. Another horror! -- some more
:54:21. > :54:26.hugging! When was the moment where you suddenly realise what you had
:54:26. > :54:31.achieved and you hugged each other? It was somewhere along the last
:54:31. > :54:35.reach coming towards the finish. We had been suppressing a lot of
:54:35. > :54:40.excitement and emotion up to then, because there was still a job to do
:54:40. > :54:45.with a gold medal in touch. But, you know, what can we say? The
:54:45. > :54:51.Aussies are slightly better than us. The did a great job. Huge
:54:51. > :55:01.congratulations. -- you did. But the girls, they also had a job to
:55:01. > :55:04.
:55:04. > :55:09.but also not break a rule and let the umpires give them a penalty
:55:09. > :55:13.turn. 11 seconds to go. It looks like the Kiwis have had a
:55:13. > :55:17.disappointing start but the British team have had a better start.
:55:17. > :55:23.the start, the boats went on opposite sides of the track but
:55:23. > :55:33.only one would be rewarded. could still change. It needed a big,
:55:33. > :55:34.
:55:34. > :55:39.big wind shift. Without it, they have got it all on. Roll into a
:55:39. > :55:46.jibe. Hannah Mills and Saskia Clark are at the back of the pack here.
:55:46. > :55:51.But if there can be a huge win shift just once, there can be
:55:51. > :55:57.another one. -- wind shift. But from a New Zealand perspective,
:55:57. > :56:04.things could not be going better at the moment. Look at that! They are
:56:04. > :56:09.listening to the crowds. It is London 2012 Olympic gold for the
:56:09. > :56:15.New Zealanders. Olympic silver for Hannah Mills and Saskia Clark.
:56:15. > :56:25.Right now, they are feeling the pain, but on reflection, an
:56:25. > :56:26.
:56:26. > :56:32.Yeah. It was tricky. We wanted to go to the left but we 20 degrees
:56:32. > :56:37.right shift came over. Pretty gutted, to be honest, but we have
:56:37. > :56:41.had a wicked 18 months to go there and she is amazing. We have had a
:56:41. > :56:45.great time! They might have had a great time but I think they have
:56:46. > :56:52.had an even better time now. They are here with their medals, finally
:56:52. > :56:58.smiling! Yes, we really wanted that medal and to lose it in such an
:56:58. > :57:03.annoying way was a bit unfortunate. But we sailed as best we could. We
:57:03. > :57:10.are so happy to come away with a silver medal. 18 months together,
:57:10. > :57:14.silver medal? It has been an awesome 18 months. We teamed up
:57:14. > :57:20.three months for the trials and we qualified for the team. Since then,
:57:20. > :57:24.we have not looked back. We have won the worlds this year and we are
:57:24. > :57:31.gradually getting happy about that! And to share that together, just
:57:31. > :57:38.quickly, it is quite a moment? You have had a hell of a journey?
:57:38. > :57:41.We have been through the highs and the lows. We get on so well and we
:57:41. > :57:47.have so much fun together and worked really hard. You are going
:57:47. > :57:57.to have more fun. Enjoy that medal and congratulations. Britain has
:57:57. > :57:58.
:57:58. > :58:08.won five medals - four silvers and one bronze. But the road to the
:58:08. > :58:12.
:58:12. > :58:21.have moved ahead of South Korea in 4th place. 50 m medals in total but
:58:21. > :58:26.only 13 golds. -- 58. Later, Tom Daley will be back on the diving
:58:26. > :58:30.platform. That is coming up at 7pm. And then over to the Olympic
:58:30. > :58:35.Stadium for an exciting evening of athletics. Plenty of relays to look
:58:35. > :58:45.forward to. The sheets get under way and Great Britain go in the
:58:45. > :58:49.
:58:49. > :58:55.first of the heats. -- the heapeds. That could be nervous. And the
