BBC Two: Day 5: 18.00-19.00 Olympics

Welcome to Olympic Park. We will be heading back to the gymnastics. The

news today is Britain has one two gold medals. Helen Glover and

Heather Stanning won gold in rowing. Bradley Wiggins has won the Olympic

gold in the time trial, cheered on by over 300,000 people on the

streets of south-west London. Gymnastics on BBC Two, but plenty

of Sport happening elsewhere. On BBC Three they are concentrating on

the tennis. Andy Murray lost the opening set. It is now in the third

set in the match against Marcos Baghdatis. Over the next hour we

will enjoy the battle for the gold medal in the men's all-around final.

Kristian Thomas and Daniel Purvis performing well. We can now go back

the team final. It just makes you wonder how all of that euphoria can

affect. It is, you need to be clean and straight in that arm. It wasn't

line and then you are standing on the 4th. He did well after that. --

which would be great to see, it really will be quite a triumph.

Because he is not at his best. To be able to pull yourself together

when you are not at your best and do this well, then you are a pretty

impressive character. Look at his toe point, every double it is

perfect. Natural style. Natural exactly. I was watching footage of

him at when he was about three or four years old and he was bouncing

down this track somersaulting time after time, time after time. It is

a natural talent out. Along with a lot of training and good coaching,

but what he brings to it is a little bit something special of his

own. The first group including Kristian Thomas, John Orozco, and

lots of unhappy faces. We have to say this. Lots of gymnasts having a

bit. He has absolutely bags of difficulty. Possibly a little bit

more than he can do easily. I am sure he can cut back a bit and be

successful. He is not that far ahead of his team mate. Not that

much room to play with. When you look at first and second, you

wonder how they did not managed to rotation. Showing every bit of

Well performed. Over half way through. It is incredible the

number of mistakes that have occurred out there. Lots of

all round gymnast. His coach must be very proud of this young man,

the progress he has made. Clean and and he is up on his feet. What a

cracker. What a connection before the code badge. That it was

something. He was flying. He came with full twist. A bit all over the

place, but he rode on his luck. Marcel Nguyen is going after the

seen him want to win enough to hold back and go for the safe routine.

He will have seen what happened to his team-mate, Tanaka, one floor.

He sat that out and lost a whole mark. Uchimura, no need to squeeze

in the extra difficulty. Mind you, he had plenty of difficulty in

well ahead of Tanaka in second, with Marcel and I am clinging on in

there for bronze. -- Marcel Nguyen little bit higher, as well as

Tommasone. There are some big names down the order. We can't stress

enough how well those British guys have done. Big names down into 20th,

18th. There is not much room between Tanaka and Nguyen, either.

But if Uchimura can go without major deductions, he has got it.

Not the dominant see we have seen - - not the dominance we have seen

but I would be pleased if he can get the reward for the work he has

done. I think every gymnast would think like you, he is the gymnasts

He is clean, hard working, and his style is from a different planet.

When he is on song. Kristian Thomas, warming up on the high bar, you can

see how tall he is, they have to move the mats so that he can swing

without kicking them. Kristian Thomas is 1.3 to five outside the

medals. And he lost at least one mark on the vault landing. His

vaults score was 1.5 marks less than he scored in the team final.

Go you are saying if he did what he did in qualification, he would be

has done a great job, they both have. It's not over yet. There is

still an awful lot that can happen. As we have seen, in the blink of an

eye. It is always a good piece of apparatus to finish on, the high

bar. That is why the high as qualifiers are in this first group.

They start on the floor and then finish on the high bar. I think

there is a good chance we won't see the winner coming from this group

and it will be on the floor, the winner finishes. Combe Hay Itchen

Laura finish so poorly, he wasn't in the top six. Marcel Nguyen, who

is in bronze medal position at the moment, will be the last gymnast on

the floor. I like him, he has come up steadily. He has been the unsung

hero in the German team. Hambuchen has always been the star. When

Hambuchen was out, Philipp Boy took the limelight. Marcel Nguyen has

been hidden away behind the per of them. As far as the Olympics is

concerned, Germany have only had one silver, one gold medal and one

bronze medal. He is joining a very exclusive club. If he goes through.

There is quite a lot of work to be done for everyone. I would rather

finish on the floor than the high bar. The margin for error!

Definitely. I don't know why, maybe it is psychological. You seemed

closest to the floor. In the women's, you do finish on the floor.

Probably the hardest to finish on. But that was very smooth. He has

goodness me. How easy to let a medal slip away. The medal has gone.

Japan had a nightmare in the team final on this piece of apparatus.

It is exactly what happened last time. It looked like he was nowhere

near. There is nothing you can do. When the spring breaks down, there

is little you can do to rescue it. But the crowd are behind him.

do not start again, you carry on from way you finished. You have to

be better than before to make up for everything. Working his way

through into the dismount, seeing if he can still be a top 10 gymnast.

What a disappointment. Hugely disappointing for him. The door is

opened. Kristian Thomas the Great Britain, his last piece of

apparatus in his all-around final. His performance in the Europeans

are rescued Britain's team hopes to get them the gold. And can he do

the same here? Very high and very clean. He is going very well. This

Kristian Thomas. Nailing his dismount is becoming his trademark.

What a job from him. A fantastic performance again from Kristian

Thomas. He will be so disappointed his favourite piece really let him

down today. He has qualified for vault final and knows he can do one

of the best in the world. And the other five apparatus have been

immaculate. He has worked better than I have seen him perform on the

other five. Very strong. His feet The last release, he catches with a

mixed grip. 15 scored. As such a shame for his fault. Daniel Purvis

This is what is needed for a last piece. He can get it 15 on this

it brings the curtain down on an interesting all round competitions.

He has done a good job to rescue that on the last piece of apparatus.

Impressive gymnastics from Great Britain. Even when the chips were

down and it did not go right. They don't throw the towel in, they

fight on and see the day-out. Performing their best work. Even

when it has not gone quite so exciting on the high bar. He

might not have been at his best elsewhere. But here we go. Hall

straight into the front somersault, but it it was wild. He didn't even

get a momentary hang. He just slapped the bar and down he went.

He did not hold on for any amount of time. He was too low and his

body weight it was under the bar. Talking of falling. The Japanese

is 12.842, to go ahead of Mykola Kuksenkov, who has moved into first.

The smile on his face as he landed said it all. We do have some other

gymnasts to go who could go ahead of Mykola Kuksenkov. I think we

could safely say we are looking at the Olympic champion. It is good

for men's gymnastics. Three-times world champion, he deserves the

of the gymnasts are congratulating each other. It is a great

atmosphere down there. Leyva came through. Marcel Nguyen came through

as well. What a thriller, what a finale. Three super gymnasts, with

different strengths. Wonderful to see Uchimura on the top of the pile,

where he deserves to be. He it is Uchimura, yet to be beaten

internationally. What a gymnast yet to be beaten in four years. He had

to come back strong and he showed what a champion he is. He had us on

the edge of our seats, up until today. You wouldn't have put your

house on it, he came through an really showed us what he is capable

of. What a thrilling finale. All of the places jumbled about, before we

could talk about silver and bronze. That is the way it a competition

should be. Because so many of the men have real strengths, it is a

bit of a jumble until the end. Going into the end, Marcel Nguyen

could never have wished of a silver going up against those gymnasts.

The USA have two goals and a silver in this event, Danell Leyva made a

bit of a history for the first from the ISA to get a bronze in the all-
