:00:20. > :00:29.Welcome to Olympic Park. If you were watching on BBC1, we will be
:00:29. > :00:36.heading back to the equestrian event. But Tom Tayly and Pete
:00:36. > :00:42.Waterfield finished out of the medals in the diving final. They
:00:42. > :00:48.just made a couple of mistakes and finished in fourth. But both the
:00:48. > :00:57.guys have tweeted. Pete said, sorry, we gave it a good go, thanks for
:00:57. > :01:04.your support. He signs it gutted. Tom Daley says, sorry everyone we
:01:04. > :01:09.tried our best, but you cannot afford to miss a dive at this level.
:01:09. > :01:18.And back to the equestrianism and there is the last of the British
:01:18. > :01:21.team. Let's see William as we team. Let's see William as we
:01:21. > :01:31.rejoin our commentary team. William Fox-Pitt is ranked no one in the
:01:31. > :01:32.
:01:32. > :01:42.world and he is on a score of 44 and he does need to come inside the
:01:42. > :01:47.
:01:47. > :01:53.time. Fox-Pitt, Lionheart, ten- year-old, 44.1 at the third. Quite
:01:53. > :01:59.a young, inexperienced horse, but he has a man with real class on
:01:59. > :02:07.board. You can just see the scope of Lionheart and the way he has
:02:07. > :02:12.jumped these fences. He is flying. He knows the time is tight. He is
:02:12. > :02:18.on a young horse, but a great young horse with lot of ability. Now look
:02:18. > :02:23.at that score. Britain can get a few marks closer to Germany with
:02:23. > :02:29.show jumping in mind. They can't get ahead, whatever William does.
:02:29. > :02:38.But William could tuck himself into the individual title. 44.1 at the
:02:38. > :02:45.moment. With two show jumping rounds to come that wouldn't stop
:02:45. > :02:51.William Geding a medal individually. He is an out and out jumper,
:02:51. > :03:01.Lionheart. We have seen that in the past. He is one of the most careful
:03:01. > :03:02.
:03:02. > :03:11.horses in the show jumping arena. He has won 49 major three-day
:03:11. > :03:17.events around the world. This is the one he would love. Oh he has
:03:17. > :03:24.gone. Oiwa, the leader, he is out. He got unseated. It was just a
:03:24. > :03:30.question of unseated rider. The horse does nothing wrong. Yoshy is
:03:30. > :03:36.a fraction forward and gets propped out ot - of the saddle. What a
:03:36. > :03:44.nightmare. Such a great day in the dressage, it was going so well. He
:03:45. > :03:54.will be gutted. Drama from start to finish. William fix pit on the
:03:54. > :04:04.course. -- Fox-Pitt. There can be no bigger competition that we have
:04:04. > :04:11.needed getting accurate timing. Malin Pietersen, the last for
:04:11. > :04:19.Sweden. So far so good. He can't improve the Swedish score. She has
:04:19. > :04:29.been in the Swedish team in several of the, in fact the last two
:04:29. > :04:39.
:04:39. > :04:47.European games. She is away. Riding So Far So Good. An Irish mare.
:04:47. > :04:57.William, flying down the hill. To 13. You can fly too fast on this
:04:57. > :04:57.
:04:57. > :05:07.going. But William beautifully over 13. He is coming back to the sun
:05:07. > :05:22.
:05:22. > :05:28.his line now for the sun dials. Just pops over this. Gets the four
:05:28. > :05:35.strides and then quickly back into the gallop. Straight into the Ai
:05:35. > :05:45.that. To these incredible crowds: They're up standing on their feet.
:05:45. > :05:47.
:05:47. > :05:56.William won't stop to look at that. Now 4.33 and he is on target. Ooh
:05:56. > :06:03.hang on, it's a tight turn. Got it. And away. Fasten your safety belts
:06:03. > :06:08.at home, William Fox-Pitt is on his way! William, won a bronze four
:06:08. > :06:16.years ago. He was unlucky not to win a silver when his horse was
:06:16. > :06:25.withdrawn after cross country in Athens. He so wants an Olympic gold.
:06:25. > :06:34.Can it with done? The water. Ooh an enormous jump in. But he has
:06:34. > :06:40.quickly rebalanced and lined up on the way out. Brilliant! Brilliant
:06:40. > :06:45.William. He is well over six foot, he is huge, but he crouchs low. He
:06:45. > :06:55.is a great judge of pace and he normally knows how to get horses
:06:55. > :06:57.
:06:57. > :07:06.fit. Malin Petersen, so far so good. And there is one more to go, the
:07:06. > :07:15.great Mark Todd. Just to give us a final fling. There he is. Mark Todd.
:07:15. > :07:21.Four New Zealand. He could bring them still closer. And he is away.
:07:21. > :07:29.39.1 after dressage. If they can drop the score of Caroline Powell,
:07:29. > :07:37.they will come close to Britain, Germany and Sweden. The great Mark
:07:37. > :07:41.tord is away. Now back with Sweden. When you look at William Fox-Pitt
:07:41. > :07:47.and then Malin, there is a bit of difference in the aggression and
:07:47. > :07:57.speed, but she is getting the job done and jumping the fences. Just a
:07:57. > :08:04.
:08:04. > :08:09.problem with the brakes down there down to the fence 13. The east end
:08:09. > :08:18.barrows fence. The Swedish picture can't be improved by Malin Petter
:08:19. > :08:27.son Sen. -- Malin Petersen. This is as good as Sweden's going to get.
:08:27. > :08:36.But this man can change the Kiwi situation. The horse is only a ten-
:08:36. > :08:42.year-old. Quite young, but Todd has given him the mileage to get him
:08:42. > :08:51.here. He has had to ride him in the right state of mind and with the
:08:51. > :08:57.right amount of experience. Smooth piece of riding from Todd. 56 years
:08:57. > :09:05.old. Back-to-back gold medals can Charisma. He never looks as if he
:09:05. > :09:12.is in a hurry, but he always comes up with a good time. The rirt m is
:09:12. > :09:20.so important. -- rhythm is so important. This is the situation as
:09:20. > :09:25.we see it. We're watching Mark Todd come down the mill. If he could go
:09:25. > :09:32.clear inside the time, ooh and there is a lot of legs go and a lot
:09:32. > :09:38.of elbows going! He would put New Zealand on a score of 133. Britain
:09:38. > :09:43.on 130. Sweden on 131. Will you have any nails left by tomorrow?
:09:43. > :09:53.Mark Todd is on course, but so is William Fox-Pitt. Over the rose
:09:53. > :09:54.
:09:54. > :10:04.garden. And still Lionheart gaps. Ooh! William can improve Britain's
:10:04. > :10:07.
:10:08. > :10:14.position by a couple of marks. But no more. There the Brazilian rider
:10:14. > :10:23.has got them home and he is Dee lighted -- delighted. But his
:10:23. > :10:33.target is Rio, no doubt about that. We have seen couple of Hick ups at
:10:33. > :10:35.
:10:35. > :10:39.this -- hiccups at this fence today. But no problem. Well ridden. Ma Len
:10:39. > :10:48.Petersen on to the top of the hill and over the last eight fences. All
:10:48. > :10:57.on the flat. Mark Todd comes flying down the hill. Heels down. The pony
:10:57. > :11:04.club would like that! Now Fox-Pitt, the horse just beginning to look a
:11:04. > :11:09.trifle weiry. What is the time? Oh it is going to be close! He is not
:11:09. > :11:14.going to do that I think.Less going to do it. He is going to get
:11:14. > :11:20.a few time penalties and we want him around that tree and he want
:11:20. > :11:26.him desperately. Here he comes. And there is not a huge amount of
:11:26. > :11:36.petrol left in this tank. So Britain's position is not going to
:11:36. > :11:39.
:11:39. > :11:44.be improved. At the last, jumps the last, 9.2 to add to William Fox-
:11:44. > :11:51.Pitt's time. I don't think it's going to be gold individual for
:11:51. > :11:57.William and Lionheart. But here is Todd in the ring. He could get
:11:57. > :12:04.himself into the hunt. He is taking chances now. He is smelling
:12:04. > :12:08.success! Just to confirm Britain will finish on 130.2. They will
:12:08. > :12:18.stay ahead of Sweden. They will still say in silver medal position,
:12:18. > :12:18.
:12:18. > :12:26.behind Germany. Germany, remember, are on 134.7. Only six marks just a
:12:26. > :12:33.lilt less than Great Britain. final horse in the final water jump
:12:33. > :12:41.of the day. Makes it look like taking sweeties from babies.
:12:41. > :12:44.does. The New Zealanders have put a lot of time and effort into now a
:12:44. > :12:48.scheme that looks after the riders. They have got support for all the
:12:48. > :12:53.riders. They have looked at what is going on around the world and they
:12:53. > :13:00.have put a great team of support for both the youth and senior
:13:00. > :13:07.riders and my word it is paying off. Sarah Harris, the girl that leaves
:13:07. > :13:12.out and another one to slip on that corner. He loses his reins, but he
:13:12. > :13:20.will pick up the knitting quickly. He has got it all together.
:13:20. > :13:30.notice the hill, for this horse. Toddy's got him as fit as anyone
:13:30. > :13:31.
:13:31. > :13:39.can get a horse. A bit of a liberty with the flowers there. Mark Todd
:13:39. > :13:46.he is on that score of 39.1. And that would put him individually in
:13:46. > :13:53.a very strong medal position. Petersen only two to go. Sles not
:13:53. > :14:00.going to far away. She has never looked quick, but her time is
:14:00. > :14:06.impressive. Her dressage score will be her handicap, 60.4. She will do
:14:06. > :14:11.this time. Yes she is. She is going to be close to it any way. And
:14:11. > :14:19.watching her earlier on, you would never have guessed that. A very
:14:19. > :14:29.deaccept tifr stride. Is she is -- a very deceptive stride. Two
:14:29. > :14:34.
:14:34. > :14:43.seconds over! 0.08 add. So 61.2 I think. Let's remind you, 39.1, tord
:14:43. > :14:46.stays on that and he will -- Todd stays on that he would be on gold
:14:46. > :14:56.medal position and New Zealand would be in fourth place, but right
:14:56. > :15:04.
:15:04. > :15:14.Here he comes. He is still galloping. In fact the horse is
:15:14. > :15:15.
:15:15. > :15:25.looking good. He has got a huge stride. He comes back for the... It
:15:25. > :15:33.
:15:33. > :15:40.the century in the equestrian world. He has won so much for New Zealand.
:15:40. > :15:47.He put New Zealand eventing on the map, started back in 1980 when he
:15:47. > :15:52.won Badminton. He gave up after Sydney when he won the individual
:15:52. > :15:57.bronze medal. He came back in Hong Kong. He did not feature but it
:15:57. > :16:04.whetted his attitude to come back and try for London. He is 56 years
:16:04. > :16:14.old. He could still be in the lead after cross-country. He is flying.
:16:14. > :16:15.
:16:15. > :16:23.He has got to. The next cheque time it is at the second last. He needs
:16:24. > :16:33.to be there and he will do it. is looking good. The horse is
:16:34. > :16:34.
:16:34. > :16:40.looking a little weary though. He says come on, couple more to do,.
:16:40. > :16:48.Even if he does not, he will be in a strong position. He just gives
:16:48. > :16:55.the horse so much confidence. The horses running until their one gas.
:16:55. > :17:05.He has plenty of time to get home. He is still galloping. He needs to
:17:05. > :17:14.
:17:14. > :17:21.be in the site. -- in the site. Come on, toddy. 0.4, we will give
:17:21. > :17:31.him back. What a man. New Zealand will go forth and it is game on for
:17:31. > :17:32.
:17:32. > :17:42.the show jumping tomorrow. No doubt. He goes on to 39.5. That means he
:17:42. > :18:12.
:18:12. > :18:19.can sleep easy tonight with show jumping to come. Remember for the
:18:20. > :18:25.individuals, there are two showjumping classes. I think that
:18:25. > :18:31.is Michael Jung. I wonder if he said well done, Toddy. He certainly
:18:31. > :18:35.should have done because he rode like a star yet again. It took all
:18:35. > :18:38.of his fitness as well as the horse's fitness to get round in
:18:39. > :18:43.that time. If he had not just missed that the last fence, I am
:18:43. > :18:51.sure he would have made that time. He asked for another big one and
:18:51. > :18:56.the horse said, I do not think I can do that. Germany are one fence
:18:56. > :19:00.ahead of Great Britain. It has to be the best three scores. Sweden
:19:00. > :19:10.are in the bronze-medal position. And New Zealand. All those teams
:19:10. > :19:21.
:19:22. > :19:31.are within a fence. United States in prospect for the medals tomorrow.
:19:32. > :19:32.
:19:32. > :19:37.There is the individual situation. Michael Jung, the world champion,
:19:38. > :19:45.within 1.3 marks of the lead. What a competition. Tina Cook who won
:19:45. > :19:50.the bronze four years ago is still in touch for Great Britain.
:19:50. > :19:59.SUE BARKER: Great scenes there and great support for the British team.
:19:59. > :20:07.It is the showjumping tomorrow and Before we move on, let catch-up
:20:08. > :20:11.with the headlines from earlier today. So near, yet so far. Tom
:20:11. > :20:17.Daley and Pete Waterfield just missed out on a medal. They
:20:17. > :20:21.finished 4th after leading at the halfway stage. Gold went to China.
:20:21. > :20:25.Katherine Grainger and Anna Watkins are on their way to gold. They
:20:25. > :20:31.powered into the finals of the women's double sculls, setting an
:20:31. > :20:37.Olympic record in the process. Caitlin McClatchey won her heat in
:20:37. > :20:43.the 200m freestyle to qualify for the same if -- semi-finals. Hannah
:20:43. > :20:47.Miley also is in the semi-finals. Coming up now it is archery. Let's
:20:47. > :20:52.update you on the progress of Larry Godfrey who's in the only member of
:20:52. > :20:57.the British team who has been shooting well. He is the sole
:20:57. > :21:00.wrapped sedatives of the individual event this afternoon. He is quite a
:21:01. > :21:05.character. You from practices archery in his house. Members of
:21:05. > :21:12.the family have to watch where they walk. The practice has paid off so
:21:12. > :21:22.far. Whip again today? In the second round he was up against the
:21:22. > :21:31.
:21:31. > :21:41.Mexican competitor. We can join our put across, could not split across
:21:41. > :21:41.
:21:41. > :22:34.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds
:22:34. > :22:44.Serrano can win it with a 10. A It is an 8 so Larry Godfrey takes
:22:44. > :22:46.
:22:46. > :22:56.two points. Larry trains with his team-mates Alan Wells and Simon
:22:56. > :22:58.
:22:58. > :23:05.Terry. He still works for Rolls Royce as well as shooting full-time.
:23:05. > :23:10.As he did throughout his Olympic career. I think he likes that
:23:10. > :23:14.balance. He likes to enjoy his archery as a hobby even though he
:23:14. > :23:23.is incredibly talented. He does not want to be doing it full time every
:23:23. > :23:33.single day. A sweet side of the arrow going in that central gold
:23:33. > :24:12.
:24:12. > :24:22.been thrilled with that timing. She's usually shouting at him
:24:22. > :24:32.behind the line. Serrano is willing it to go in the 10 and 80 bayed him.
:24:32. > :24:32.
:24:32. > :25:21.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds
:25:21. > :25:25.incredibly well. In this wind, the wind socks are blowing around 360.
:25:25. > :25:31.The flags up there on the high right, they are blowing one way and
:25:31. > :25:35.the wind socks by the targets are both pointing in separate
:25:35. > :25:40.directions. We have three directions or at the same time.
:25:40. > :25:43.This is where the weight of the bow really comes into its own. The
:25:43. > :25:48.higher the draw weight, when you pull the weight back, if it is
:25:48. > :25:58.stronger, it will throw the arrows down the field quicker, cutting
:25:58. > :25:58.
:25:58. > :27:51.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds
:27:51. > :28:00.second. 29 out of 30, to share the to go on the clock. It was a seven.
:28:00. > :28:09.A lowly seven, but it is enough. It is not over yet. Godfrey, five
:28:09. > :28:14.points, Serrano, of one.. longer you are at full draw in this
:28:14. > :28:23.wind, the likelier you are to be pushed off as we saw in the last
:28:23. > :28:33.match. It is not a wind which dies down, this has been a constant wind
:28:33. > :28:33.
:28:33. > :29:32.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds
:29:32. > :29:42.nothing goes wrong with his possible 20. A good solid comeback.
:29:42. > :29:42.
:29:42. > :29:52.10 for Godfrey. That is the timing we want to see, Larry, keep it up.
:29:52. > :30:20.
:30:20. > :30:29.The last arrow out of set four. It into the lords outfield! Serrano
:30:29. > :30:35.and Godfrey enjoy a big home. Godfrey goes through, Serrano is
:30:35. > :30:42.out. Oh the Godfrey team will be on their feet. Jess his sister, his
:30:42. > :30:45.two daughters, mum and dad, they two daughters, mum and dad, they
:30:45. > :30:50.will be loving this at the moment. After all the disappointment,
:30:50. > :30:56.something for British fans to clear at lords. Larry is through to the
:30:56. > :31:01.last 16. We will go to the sailing in a moment. But let's pop back to
:31:01. > :31:06.Greenwich Park. Because we saw William Fox-Pitt complete his cross
:31:06. > :31:14.country course and it put Britain in second place. Let's hear from
:31:14. > :31:21.William with Rishi. Well done. Would it be fair to say Lionheart
:31:21. > :31:27.looked tired at the end? Yes it was not look him. But he did get tired,
:31:27. > :31:30.maybe something's not right. He lost a shoe, but it is just one of
:31:30. > :31:35.those things. I was confident before I started. I thought he
:31:35. > :31:39.would cope well with the hills. Burr when he started to make up
:31:39. > :31:44.time, I was beginning to lose it and I thoughts, oh God, I just need
:31:44. > :31:50.to get him home. The girps have done well. Hopefully they won't
:31:50. > :31:54.need my score. We can put pressure on the Germans. We're only six
:31:54. > :32:01.points behind and they have done brilliantly and tomorrow is another
:32:01. > :32:06.Kay. -- day. The team remain in a great position. Only Tyne nine
:32:06. > :32:13.marks separate the first four. after the dressage, the scores were
:32:13. > :32:17.close and it came down to the cross country and we have Claude up one
:32:17. > :32:22.place. I hope the horses are well tonight and can jump well tomorrow.
:32:22. > :32:27.What was it like out there? The support has been tremendous? It has
:32:27. > :32:32.been fantastic. A home Olympics is what we were excited about. It is a
:32:32. > :32:36.prev ledge to have one in our lifetime. And I mean look at it, it
:32:36. > :32:41.has been such a boost and they were cheering before we even started. We
:32:41. > :32:49.have never had that before. It is a big deal for the horses as well and
:32:49. > :32:53.they coped well. It lifted spirits the whole way round. British fans
:32:53. > :32:57.are wandering -- wondering what hope we have tomorrow
:32:57. > :33:02.realistically? The Germans are good jumpers and they have got three
:33:02. > :33:07.good scores up there. And you know, thing will have to go wrong for
:33:07. > :33:11.them. But they can. Who knows? But the most important thing is the
:33:11. > :33:18.British horses are good tonight and fass vet inspection tomorrow. And
:33:18. > :33:22.then with the show jumping, we hope it is a demanding track and our
:33:22. > :33:27.horses jump well. Give those Germans a run for their money.
:33:27. > :33:34.will do that for sure. So much can happen in the show jumping and
:33:34. > :33:40.tomorrow the vet's inspection. You can see the tome -- team show
:33:40. > :33:44.jumping tomorrow. The individual is on later in the afternoon. A lot to
:33:44. > :33:50.look forward to there. Now time for our early evening sailing report as
:33:50. > :33:58.we led to way mouth. No medals decided. It is all about keeping in
:33:58. > :34:02.contention A busy day on the water with five classs in action. Ben
:34:02. > :34:09.Ainslie was second yesterday. How did he fair today? Well today six
:34:09. > :34:14.of our ten classes were in action. All three of our returning gold
:34:14. > :34:19.medallists from Beijing. Yesterday Ben Ainsley started well. But the
:34:19. > :34:24.same man from Denmark had beaten him twice. The target taited for
:34:24. > :34:34.ane swhri, that was to be changed. We join him for the racing. It is
:34:34. > :34:37.
:34:37. > :34:41.the second race at the first mark wind and will see these guys start
:34:41. > :34:46.to get physical with the boat and really try and make some difference
:34:46. > :34:54.and Ben will want the put it into effect and overtake the Danish guy
:34:54. > :35:00.who is just next to him. Time to throw the boom across, that big
:35:00. > :35:10.powerful sail. New Zealand rounds in first. We got a glimpse of Ben.
:35:10. > :35:12.
:35:12. > :35:17.Greece are second at the moment. The nethed lands are third and
:35:17. > :35:23.Ainsley rounds the raft of three. Let's watch him work. Denmark are
:35:23. > :35:27.down one side of the course. Ainsley is at the other. Yesterday
:35:27. > :35:31.this is where we saw the British sailor in a league of his own. He
:35:31. > :35:35.stepped up a gear and found a gear that no one else has got. Watch the
:35:35. > :35:40.technique. He is on a waver and you can tell when he has got one. You
:35:40. > :35:48.see a push there. The boat leans to wards him. Pull towards and push.
:35:48. > :35:52.Look at that on a wave. Stay on the waver, keep going! Down he goes. He
:35:52. > :36:02.has got this perfect. Confident, calm, cool and getting it right.
:36:02. > :36:12.They split down this run. We saw Ben diving left, we saw Christian
:36:12. > :36:12.
:36:12. > :36:18.son diving right. Christensen has got it right. Christensen is doing
:36:18. > :36:22.a Ben Ainslie and sailing down and getting these this wave. Look at
:36:22. > :36:27.that, Denmark getting the waves right. Sailing up closer and closer
:36:27. > :36:33.to Dan Slater. The pressure is coming from Denmark. We can see
:36:33. > :36:40.Ainsley coming into the mark and the Danish sailor, Hogh-Christensen
:36:40. > :36:50.will round in second. Stay like this and it will be one, one two at
:36:50. > :37:02.
:37:02. > :37:08.the Olympics. Hogh-Christensen who, beat Ben Ainslie twice yesterday is
:37:08. > :37:14.leading him now. After an opening bout of a seventh and an eleventh
:37:14. > :37:19.in race three, New Zealand crowds will be cheering as Dan Slater wins
:37:19. > :37:26.in the Finn class. The man whether has is coming behind him is the man
:37:26. > :37:31.who is making the greatest impact. Yesterday, it was two victories,
:37:31. > :37:36.Hogh-Christensen was out to Ben Ainslie again and today the Danish
:37:36. > :37:41.sailor may have come second and not first, but that may be a more
:37:41. > :37:51.significant roult, -- result, because Ainslie isn't hot on his
:37:51. > :37:52.
:37:52. > :37:59.heels. Riz rival's luck was about to change, the great Dane hooked
:37:59. > :38:03.the control boat. He has hit the pin end of the line and he is stuck
:38:04. > :38:08.there. Penalty turns for Christensen and a chance for
:38:08. > :38:13.Ainslie to sail a race that would bring him back in touch and he is
:38:13. > :38:21.in a solid four. Was normal service to be resumed as the Dane was Mott
:38:21. > :38:25.just out of top 10 -- not just out of top 10, but in the 20s. Their
:38:25. > :38:32.man capsized while leading. leader in the firn class, we said
:38:32. > :38:38.how easy it is to get it wrong. Then the Spanish sailor took a swim
:38:38. > :38:47.when his rudder fell off. He had been leading too. But none was
:38:47. > :38:56.enough to save Ben. Sweden, France and slovon ya took the top spot and
:38:56. > :38:59.ainsly had lost ground and he wasn't happy. Double first
:39:00. > :39:09.yesterday and you're good run continued today. It was no
:39:09. > :39:13.tpwhruebg? No. I had a good day again today. -- fluke. Two not so
:39:13. > :39:18.good starts, but a good day. Hit the pin end in the second race and
:39:18. > :39:24.had to do some turn and I was pretty much last. But I fought my
:39:24. > :39:32.way back up to seventh. It was an amazing tun around. We were right
:39:32. > :39:36.next to it and we saw you. Were you using anger and frustration as your
:39:36. > :39:40.motivation? I was pushing hard. I knew I had made a mistake. Of
:39:40. > :39:47.course I was angry with myself. But you know it is one of those things
:39:47. > :39:53.where you focus and push as hard as you can and hopefully make it back
:39:53. > :39:56.and I did. It is a big fleet and many people to win. Were you
:39:56. > :40:00.noticing that Ben wasn't having the best of days todaysome Yes of
:40:00. > :40:06.course. I mean there is four or five guys that I'm paying attention
:40:06. > :40:10.to 5 he is one of them. Yes, he wasn't having the greatest day
:40:10. > :40:14.today. But I'm still focusing on my own race and to do the best I can.
:40:14. > :40:20.You want to do this for Denmark, for the record and for yourself.
:40:20. > :40:23.But at what stage do you start to think this is getting very
:40:23. > :40:28.exciting? Well I think it's exciting already. But there is a
:40:28. > :40:34.long way to go. We're one day closer and it is still we're only a
:40:34. > :40:43.third into it. So let's see. There is a long way to go. Bebb, nobody
:40:43. > :40:49.said the path to gold was easy A tough day? Yes. It was frustrating.
:40:49. > :40:56.Difficult. Certainly to pick up the game for the rest of the week.
:40:56. > :41:01.problems with Rita. We saw you and the bow sun having a look. I don't
:41:01. > :41:06.think it is the boat, it is the person sailing it. I didn't have a
:41:06. > :41:12.good day, I didn't sail well. So you know it is still a long way to
:41:12. > :41:15.go. But I will have to sail a lot better than today if I'm going to
:41:15. > :41:21.do well. Were you feeling the pressure from Christensen in the
:41:21. > :41:25.last Day race, he has put down another big marker today?
:41:25. > :41:31.really. He is sailing well. He made a big mistake in the second race
:41:31. > :41:36.and he got back through. But no, I was trying to do my best. The best
:41:36. > :41:39.I could. It was difficult conditions. But for one reason or
:41:39. > :41:45.another I struggled to pick the breeze and pick the right way up
:41:45. > :41:50.the course. Which was frustrating. You will go away and gear up for
:41:50. > :41:53.another day. You have won from tougher positions than this. Yes, I
:41:53. > :41:59.have, but you know sometimes events come to you and sometimes you have
:41:59. > :42:04.to go out and fight for it. And this one is not coming to me, so I
:42:04. > :42:12.guess I will have to fight for it. Good luck. So a tough day for
:42:12. > :42:16.Ainslie. But it was the start of the competition in the laser class.
:42:16. > :42:23.A head-to-head has been predicted with Australia and Tom Slingsby.
:42:23. > :42:28.After the first day, life was not looking straight forward. Coming to
:42:28. > :42:38.the climax of the first day of raising in the laser class and
:42:38. > :42:39.
:42:39. > :42:46.Australia lead with Slingsby and Britain are in the 20s, struggling
:42:46. > :42:56.in this second race. Goodson with a difficult day for himment. For the
:42:56. > :42:56.
:42:56. > :43:04.man from down under, he leads after day one. It looked like sufficient
:43:04. > :43:08.a tough day. It was hard to get away from the pack. No, the first
:43:08. > :43:14.race quite a good start. But once you're in the pack it is difficult
:43:14. > :43:18.to sail where you want to go. was a great day for me. I had a
:43:18. > :43:25.second and a first. Yeah, it is a lot different to four years ago and
:43:25. > :43:30.I feel good. It has been your goal to own Weymouth and also the strong
:43:30. > :43:36.winds. Yes, I have always wanted to do well and show my competitors
:43:36. > :43:41.that I'm hard to beat here and I have done that. Now it is time to
:43:41. > :43:47.perform in the big show. I have started well and I'm happy. In the
:43:47. > :43:57.other classes well a difficult start for the high speed 49er class.
:43:57. > :43:57.
:43:57. > :44:01.Stevie moreson and Ben Rhodes end the day on 12th. But good new
:44:01. > :44:05.foster wrish British. Iain Persie and his partner are leading the
:44:05. > :44:09.class after a third and a second. So it has been a tough day for the
:44:10. > :44:13.British team. But there is a lot of races still to go and for Ben
:44:13. > :44:18.Ainslie he is perhaps in a corner. Burr we have seen him fight out of
:44:18. > :44:25.Burr we have seen him fight out of that with a lot of punch before. It
:44:25. > :44:31.seems to happen at each Olympics, but good throubg Ben. The men's
:44:31. > :44:39.team gymnastics is reaching its climax on BBC Three and Britain are
:44:39. > :44:49.battling wit Ukraine for the -- out with the Ukraine for the bronze
:44:49. > :44:54.medal. And now beach volleyball is causing a score in London with the
:44:54. > :45:04.loud music and the crowd asked to stand up and do the Conga. Now the
:45:04. > :45:24.
:45:24. > :45:34.British men are back on court and off lightly against this calibre of
:45:34. > :45:41.opponent. Double contact. That means the ball was not upset evenly
:45:41. > :45:51.by eight Garcia Thomson. There are very strict rules about to have
:45:51. > :46:04.
:46:04. > :46:14.been beach volleyball, whether the and how did the Brazilians get it
:46:14. > :46:24.out for? Phenomenal recovery by the Brazilians. There is a very
:46:24. > :46:24.
:46:24. > :47:19.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds
:47:19. > :47:24.Ricardo looking for a drop just got to it. Luckily it does not come
:47:24. > :47:28.back. Garcia Thompson came to life in the game against the Canadians
:47:28. > :47:32.around this time. It will be interesting to see if he can do the
:47:32. > :47:42.same against the Brazilians. It really helped the British team
:47:42. > :48:20.
:48:20. > :48:27.rally against the Canadians. 7-12, shot. A technical time-out. We
:48:27. > :48:34.reached the sum total of 21 points in the first two sets. An
:48:35. > :48:42.interesting year for the Brazilian duo. They started it very strongly
:48:42. > :48:45.with the third in Brazil Leah and a win in Poland. They just missed out
:48:45. > :48:53.on the quarter-finals and a two Chinese events but came back to the
:48:53. > :49:01.Open in Prague. Third, 9th and 5th in the run-up to the game's. Always
:49:01. > :49:08.a threat. They are very much the second tier Brazilian team behind
:49:08. > :49:14.Emmanuel and Alison who we will see in action tomorrow. The players
:49:14. > :49:19.come back on court after the 32nd time out. Garcia Thompson and
:49:19. > :49:23.Grotowski. They would not be expected to advance from the group
:49:23. > :49:28.but a lot people have been watching their performance against the
:49:28. > :49:31.Canadians and may have revised their ideas on that. A bit of
:49:31. > :49:38.confusion between the Brazilians but as they have shown already they
:49:38. > :49:48.can recover well. That -- a fantastic well-structured attack
:49:48. > :50:05.
:50:05. > :50:15.Grotowski Serves, 13-9 to the Brazilians. The ball goes out.
:50:15. > :50:18.Another point for Team GB. They have cut the deficit to 3 points.
:50:18. > :50:28.With the amount of noise the crowd are making, you would have thought
:50:28. > :50:41.
:50:41. > :50:51.Brazilian point. Looking at the statistics, two from Great Britain
:50:51. > :50:55.
:50:55. > :51:05.and two from Brazil so not be covered with some sand so that
:51:05. > :51:20.
:51:20. > :51:25.role as football. If it is out, the whole ball needs to be out, only
:51:25. > :51:35.the slightest touch on the line. There was a dirty bounce off the
:51:35. > :51:45.
:51:45. > :51:55.net. Are a fantastic Spike down the these was match point with the
:51:55. > :52:04.
:52:04. > :52:12.was good work. You have got to say, the crowd are certainly playing
:52:12. > :52:21.their part here. Both Grotowski and Garcia Thompson cited the crowd as
:52:21. > :52:31.a huge influence in their first game. It spurred them on. That
:52:31. > :53:01.
:53:01. > :53:11.space. He seems to have found a couple of ways round Ocado at the
:53:11. > :53:21.net now. -- round Ricardo. The crowd are not making it easy for
:53:21. > :53:44.
:53:44. > :53:49.into Garcia Thompson. Despite down the line again. -- This bike down
:53:49. > :53:52.the line again. In comparison with the first game against the
:53:52. > :54:02.Norwegians, certainly Ricardo has not made his presence felt in the
:54:02. > :54:15.
:54:15. > :54:25.into the net and then rebounded off. You can see how much it means to
:54:25. > :54:49.
:54:49. > :54:55.deflected it out. The Brazilians lead 18-15. As I was saying, we
:54:55. > :54:59.have seen less than underdog battles, we have seen some serious
:54:59. > :55:03.thrashings. At the moment, Grotowski and Garcia Thompson are
:55:03. > :55:13.giving a good account for themselves. Fantastic! A fantastic
:55:13. > :55:33.
:55:33. > :55:43.approach. Just a little too hard. You cannot give a player of
:55:43. > :56:14.
:56:14. > :56:24.Ricardo's calibre an opportunity Grotowski set that ball, when we
:56:24. > :56:34.
:56:34. > :56:44.get the replay you will see him for him, 17-19. They have not
:56:44. > :56:44.
:56:44. > :57:46.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds
:57:46. > :57:50.managed to get any closer than two SUE BARKER: They certainly ran it
:57:50. > :57:55.close in the first set but the Brazilians raced away in the second
:57:55. > :57:58.set winning it 21-12. A second loss for the British men but one more
:57:59. > :58:02.group match to go. The British women will be back on the sand
:58:02. > :58:06.tomorrow. To just before we go, we have some
:58:06. > :58:10.great news, Britain has got another medal. It has come in the
:58:10. > :58:14.gymnastics. It is the first time the British men have been in the
:58:14. > :58:18.team final since 1924 and we are hearing it is a silver medal. These
:58:18. > :58:23.are the live scenes from the North Greenwich arena. They were lying in
:58:23. > :58:27.third place but they have taken the silver medal. You will be able to
:58:27. > :58:33.find out more on that story on BBC One with Gary Lineker in a moment.
:58:33. > :58:37.What a story down there, fantastic. Just before we go, there is
:58:37. > :58:43.swimming tonight. There are lots of people heading towards the Aquatics
:58:43. > :58:47.Centre. If there are two British athletes in action, Gemma Spofforth
