Day 8

:00:07. > :00:13.Hello and welcome to Budapest for the final day of swimming. Let's go

:00:14. > :00:19.straight to the action, because this airy Vasey goes for Britain in the

:00:20. > :00:26.50-metre breaststroke final. COMMENTATOR: You join us for the

:00:27. > :00:34.first final on the final day. The fastest female breaststroke is in

:00:35. > :00:42.history here. Sarah Vasey is in the seven at the bottom there. One

:00:43. > :00:47.length of breaststroke, and the fastest women in history are here.

:00:48. > :00:56.The world record holder has had a good start, that's Ruta Meilutyte

:00:57. > :00:59.take. Going very well is the new record holder on the 100

:01:00. > :01:04.breaststroke, Lilly King, looking very good indeed, but Efimova coming

:01:05. > :01:18.back in the pink suit. Looks like it may be King on the touch. 29.4 .0.

:01:19. > :01:22.Lilly King broke the record on the 100 metres breaststroke, and now

:01:23. > :01:29.she's done it on the 50. Silver to Efimova of rush-hour, and the bronze

:01:30. > :01:38.to the USA. Sarah Vasey did well for Great Britain, swam very well

:01:39. > :01:44.indeed. Came in sixth. 30.6 her time, just outside the time she swam

:01:45. > :01:49.in the semifinals. What a world record that was. That is the first

:01:50. > :01:53.time all year I have seen FM owner and King share a smile. They have

:01:54. > :01:59.had some proper needle both before the Olympic Games and before this

:02:00. > :02:08.meet. It took a world record for King to take this home. Efimova was

:02:09. > :02:13.so close. It was the start that lost it for Efimova. Just look how close

:02:14. > :02:19.it is here at the end. She had a ropey start in the 100 as well,

:02:20. > :02:24.didn't she? King just getting into that wall, getting that world

:02:25. > :02:31.record, and she salutes the crowd. Boom. Thank you very much! Well, the

:02:32. > :02:36.sprint queen on breaststroke, won the 100 with a world record, and now

:02:37. > :02:38.the 50. Lilly King the new world champion on the women's 50-metre

:02:39. > :02:53.breaststroke. Well, the Americans are having quite

:02:54. > :02:56.a week, aren't they? First race of the night came out in style to

:02:57. > :03:02.please the crowd with a world record. How impressed were you with

:03:03. > :03:05.that? I think we will all a bit shocked that the world record got

:03:06. > :03:10.row can, but credit to Sarah, her international debut. She's not

:03:11. > :03:14.really done anything before. Most swimmers do a junior competition or

:03:15. > :03:19.something, but Sarah has just come out here and made the final, made

:03:20. > :03:25.six, just outside her personal best. Very much looking forward to have

:03:26. > :03:29.prospects in the future, and she has the relay tonight as well for the

:03:30. > :03:36.finalist for the second time this week. Great for her to be alongside

:03:37. > :03:41.the Olympic champions, world record holders, world champions... She is

:03:42. > :03:48.well down off the start, and always playing catch up. She was going to

:03:49. > :03:54.have to be down among 30.1 to be in with a medal shout. It was a

:03:55. > :04:00.humdinger. Between Efimova and King. We have had it all week. As the guys

:04:01. > :04:05.said, it took the world record. We have made so much of their rivalry.

:04:06. > :04:12.Does King like having someone to spur her arm, hard on her heels? I

:04:13. > :04:16.think so. You like a bit of rivalry, don't you. Max Litchfield had a good

:04:17. > :04:23.morning, breaking the British record. He goes tonight in the final

:04:24. > :04:28.of the 400 medley. Let's hear from him. It is very tough, but over

:04:29. > :04:33.time, you get used to it and you know it's going to hurt. That is

:04:34. > :04:38.just part and parcel of what you do. We spend a lot of time on all four

:04:39. > :04:42.strokes. It can be tough, but that's what everyone else is doing in the

:04:43. > :04:47.world, and you've got to compete against the best in the world in

:04:48. > :04:53.that event, and look to put in the processes I'm going to do in Tokyo.

:04:54. > :04:59.If that happens to give me a medal shot, that's fantastic. If I can go

:05:00. > :05:05.in with the best and put a good timing, and do the things I want to

:05:06. > :05:10.do right, then I will be happy. He certainly looked good this morning.

:05:11. > :05:15.How confident are you that Macs can get among the medals? Ferry. He

:05:16. > :05:18.looked incredible on the 200 individual medley. He broke the

:05:19. > :05:28.British record this morning. It is tough doing them back-to-back, so

:05:29. > :05:33.he's probably tired, but it is a great position to be. You have the

:05:34. > :05:41.Olympic champion in lane one, a bit of a surprise, but he has not been

:05:42. > :05:50.in form this week. You have a silver in Kalisz next to Max, and then you

:05:51. > :05:57.have Seto. As you say, if he does another best time, he is in with a

:05:58. > :06:02.shout. Fingers crossed that Max can medal. It is tough and it is

:06:03. > :06:12.technical. The tactics are technical. Let's see how Max goes.

:06:13. > :06:19.Seto in 64 Japan is going for the triple. The third gold in a row in

:06:20. > :06:25.this 400 metres individual medley, but there's some big guns all over

:06:26. > :06:34.this pool. Kalisz in four, won the 200. Al Mader of Brazil, and next to

:06:35. > :06:39.him is Hagino, who won the Olympic Games just last year. Seto has

:06:40. > :06:45.looked pretty good so far, but he really needs to set it up if he is

:06:46. > :06:57.going to win here. He won the bronze on the 200 medley. David Verraszto

:06:58. > :07:06.of Hungary. Next to him is going to be Max Litchfield. Here he is. What

:07:07. > :07:10.can he do here in the final? He did look all out to me this morning,

:07:11. > :07:16.which worries me because some of the other big boys seem to have

:07:17. > :07:22.something left in the attack. Look at Chase Kalisz. He has trained for

:07:23. > :07:27.years out in Baltimore, at Michael Phelps' club. How well he did

:07:28. > :07:30.earlier in the week to win that 200 metres individual medley, an event

:07:31. > :07:45.that America has not lost since 2001. Max swam very well indeed this

:07:46. > :07:50.morning, set a new British record this morning to qualify second for

:07:51. > :07:55.this final. An interesting place going into a major. It's a good

:07:56. > :08:01.position. He has Kalisz on one side and is set to on the other. Those

:08:02. > :08:06.two will be on the medal podium. I think this will be the fastest 400

:08:07. > :08:12.metres individual medley in history, one, two, three, so if he wants to

:08:13. > :08:24.get a medal tonight, he needs to be on his game. It's going to be quick.

:08:25. > :08:36.Very slow to take his kit off there. Making everyone else wait. David

:08:37. > :08:41.Verraszto of Hungary attracting a huge amount of support. Silver in

:08:42. > :08:52.the World Championships two years ago went to Seto.

:08:53. > :09:01.So, two lengths butterfly, two backstroke, to breaststroke and two

:09:02. > :09:07.freestyle. Max is easy to spot from above. On the left side, going very

:09:08. > :09:14.fast indeed, Hagino, the Olympic champion from Japan. I like this

:09:15. > :09:18.from Max. You want to make sure you have soft legs on the butterfly

:09:19. > :09:23.going out. This is a horrendous event, and you have to make sure you

:09:24. > :09:29.have the energy at the end. Hagino ahead there. He is going to like

:09:30. > :09:35.that out in one. Look at Seto. Bronze medallist in the 200 fly

:09:36. > :09:40.setting the pace. Just outside world record pace. The records set by the

:09:41. > :09:45.great Michael Phelps back in Beijing, one of his eight straight

:09:46. > :09:55.gold medals. Phelps is a fantastic flyer. First to turn after the 100

:09:56. > :09:59.of the fly is Kalisz of the USA. Max Litchfield had a good start. We want

:10:00. > :10:06.to see him build this backstroke. You want to be very strong on this

:10:07. > :10:10.second 50 in backstroke and take the momentum into breaststroke. He is up

:10:11. > :10:15.and level with Chase Kalisz, the fastest swimmer in the world this

:10:16. > :10:21.year. Max Litchfield is taking these guys on. He has done international

:10:22. > :10:29.backstroke and we expect this to be a strong leg. Only two tenths of a

:10:30. > :10:34.second behind Kalisz. Come on, Max. Looking good in the centre. Looking

:10:35. > :10:40.very strong down this backstroke. This next turn is only the halfway

:10:41. > :10:45.mark. The next one is generally the leg, the breaststroke leg, that sort

:10:46. > :10:55.them out. Max Litchfield looking strong. He may turn first. 1:59.5

:10:56. > :11:04.four Kalisz. Under British world record pace Olic field in five. What

:11:05. > :11:09.a race this is. Under Commonwealth record pace. No one from the

:11:10. > :11:15.Commonwealth has ever managed to go under 4.10. Litchfield could do this

:11:16. > :11:17.tonight. Can he also get a medal? Look at him in lane three, working

:11:18. > :11:30.his way back into this. David Verraszto in second, Kalisz

:11:31. > :11:34.still leading, but Litchfield in third. It was tight on the

:11:35. > :11:38.backstroke to breaststroke turn, but look at that first leg of Chase

:11:39. > :11:42.Kalisz, the first 50 on the breaststroke. He took one and a half

:11:43. > :11:46.seconds out of the rest of the field. David Verraszto chasing him.

:11:47. > :11:52.Maybe third or fourth is Max Litchfield. He was fourth on the 200

:11:53. > :11:58.breaststroke. Starting to wind it up. No doubt that the leader, and it

:11:59. > :12:03.looks like, barring something major, Chase Kalisz turning first will win

:12:04. > :12:11.gold. 100 metres to go. Just about in third position is Seto of Japan.

:12:12. > :12:14.The defending champion, Litchfield was he is just behind. He is going

:12:15. > :12:18.well for the bronze medal in the centre. The pink suit of Litchfield

:12:19. > :12:25.is going well. It's all about heart from here. You've got to dig deep.

:12:26. > :12:29.He's taken on the double champion, he won in 15 and 13, Seto, and Max

:12:30. > :12:36.Litchfield is task. 150 metres left for a bronze medal. -- is taking him

:12:37. > :12:41.to task. Come on, Max! It's going to be tight. They are starting to catch

:12:42. > :12:48.up the silver-medallist, David Verraszto. He is in the White House,

:12:49. > :12:51.fashionable white hat, but a mighty scrap for bronze between Litchfield

:12:52. > :12:56.and the lipid champion. Goodness me, the world champion. It's going to be

:12:57. > :13:03.Chase Kalisz of the USA. Kalisz wins gold. Silver goes to David

:13:04. > :13:07.Verraszto. Inside the last 25 minutes, Seto wins bronze for Japan.

:13:08. > :13:14.And a new British and Commonwealth record for Max Litchfield. He has to

:13:15. > :13:19.be satisfied with fourth. 4:09.62 is a brilliant swim. Not much else he

:13:20. > :13:25.could have done. It's a Commonwealth record for Max Litchfield. He's done

:13:26. > :13:30.a great job, and Seto, double champion at these World

:13:31. > :13:35.Championships in the previous two, he took him down on the last 50. He

:13:36. > :13:40.was so strong, Seto. Heartbreaking for Max Litchfield. He really let

:13:41. > :13:50.everything on the line. He doesn't get a medal. Kalisz really was a

:13:51. > :13:55.class act. 4.05 competition record. He did everything right, Max

:13:56. > :13:59.Litchfield, in this event. He put all of the strokes together, and it

:14:00. > :14:07.was just at the very end. Seto took him down. Great turn from Kalisz.

:14:08. > :14:13.That would have won a bronze at the Olympic games in Rio last year, Max

:14:14. > :14:20.Litchfield's time. Oh, my goodness! Seto timed it to perfection. The

:14:21. > :14:28.gold clearly Kalisz, a new record for him. And he has taken over very

:14:29. > :14:33.quickly from Michael Phelps and lock year, gracious me. Didn't take him

:14:34. > :14:35.long. There are more painful places to finish them in and the 400

:14:36. > :14:57.individual medley physically hurts. Oh, my! You don't know whether to be

:14:58. > :15:02.overjoyed for him to go under 4.10, because it's a massive barrier for

:15:03. > :15:07.Max Litchfield, or heartbroken because he's just outside the

:15:08. > :15:10.medals. Got to celebrate, it's the best he's done by a long way.

:15:11. > :15:17.There's nothing he can do about the other guys if they go faster. The

:15:18. > :15:24.new champion, Kalisz, silver to Verraszto, bronze to Seto.

:15:25. > :15:26.The Hungarians are going crackers for their silver-medallist, but I

:15:27. > :15:32.suspect nobody in Sheffield has got a voice left. Come on, Max

:15:33. > :15:36.Litchfield, what a fight! I don't think anybody in the UK as a voice

:15:37. > :15:42.left! That was heartbreaking, because it was such a good time for

:15:43. > :15:47.Max, a new British and Commonwealth record, and just in the last ten

:15:48. > :15:55.metres... Iron he stuck in there. On the first length, the last leg,

:15:56. > :16:00.freestyle, he was taking Seto on. I think he'd broken him, but Seto

:16:01. > :16:02.saved a bit. That is why he has won World Championships. He has put

:16:03. > :16:08.himself on the map now, Max Litchfield. Commiserations or

:16:09. > :16:14.congratulations, I don't know which is right. Let's find out. I'm

:16:15. > :16:16.heartbroken for you. You had a fantastic week with your swims and a

:16:17. > :16:22.brilliant Commonwealth record. You gave everything. You can't be too

:16:23. > :16:29.disappointed. No, I'm not. He said to me in the week, you've got to

:16:30. > :16:33.look, you can't look at where you come since a or so ago. I say a year

:16:34. > :16:40.or so ago, I came fourth twice at the world champions. Commonwealth

:16:41. > :16:47.record and the first British under 4.10, so happy with that. You put

:16:48. > :16:51.all of your times with those guys on paper, the person moving up fastest

:16:52. > :16:56.is you, and you have three years to go until you have to get it right.

:16:57. > :17:00.That's when it matters. It's nice to get things right here, but the main

:17:01. > :17:36.target is three years' time. Well done. Cheers.

:17:37. > :17:46.That was, of course, Sarah Sjostrom, the swimming superstar from Sweden.

:17:47. > :17:54.It didn't go her way in the 100. Will we see an upset in the 50? I

:17:55. > :17:59.think she's got it after the world record. She just got it wrong in the

:18:00. > :18:03.100 freestyle. She held her breath for the first 25, which is a no-no.

:18:04. > :18:08.I think on this she'll have her head down the whole time, and the way she

:18:09. > :18:13.swam in the semis, is whether she'll break the world record or not. It's

:18:14. > :18:22.the women's 50 metres freestyle champion Lee final. -- freestyle

:18:23. > :18:30.final. The defending world champion is in

:18:31. > :18:33.lane two, the Olympic champion is in lane five, and the world record

:18:34. > :18:42.holder, Sarah Sjostrom, is in vain three. -- is in lane three.

:18:43. > :18:51.So all eight women ready behind their blocks. There is the new world

:18:52. > :18:56.record holder on this, the 50 metres freestyle. She set a massive world

:18:57. > :19:01.record on the 100, and then she didn't win. What is going to happen?

:19:02. > :19:06.Let's hope the same doesn't happen here. No way she should have that

:19:07. > :19:09.100 free. She should be full of confidence after that world record

:19:10. > :19:17.last night. Sarah Sjostrom Elaine four. She swam under 24 seconds six

:19:18. > :19:24.times this year and nobody else has. -- in lane four. The finals of the

:19:25. > :19:30.women's 50 metres freestyle, and a great start from the swimmer from

:19:31. > :19:37.the Netherlands. Starting to wind it up, Sarah Sjostrom Sweden. Ranomi

:19:38. > :19:47.Kromowidjojo Yeo of the Netherlands still going well. 23.69, goodness

:19:48. > :19:51.me! She's very nearly did lose its! Sarah Sjostrom gets the gold, 23.69,

:19:52. > :19:57.two one hundredths of a second outside the world-record she set in

:19:58. > :20:04.the semifinals. The silver goes to Ranomi Kromowidjojo, and the bronze

:20:05. > :20:09.to Simone and Yale. The defending champion, gracious me, back in

:20:10. > :20:16.eighth! -- Simone Manuel. Three women going under 12 seconds, and

:20:17. > :20:22.Sarah Sjostrom got an almighty scare. She only just won the race.

:20:23. > :20:28.The start of Ranomi Kromowidjojo was extraordinary! Slightly surprised,

:20:29. > :20:33.because Sarah Sjostrom did a fly. You'd think she would be better on

:20:34. > :20:42.the start. Ranomi Kromowidjojo was fantastic. She was great. We haven't

:20:43. > :20:46.seen her in this form since she won the Olympics in 2012. Look at how

:20:47. > :20:50.close it was, giving her a right old scare at the end. What a brilliant

:20:51. > :20:54.women's 50 freestyle. It was an awful lot closer than I thought it

:20:55. > :21:01.was going to be. She said a cracking week. Maybe just dropped that 100

:21:02. > :21:04.metres freestyle, the only thing she's done wrong, winning the silver

:21:05. > :21:11.medal, but a massive world record format. She adds gold medal on the

:21:12. > :21:12.women's 50 metres freestyle to the she in the semifinal, Sarah

:21:13. > :21:24.Sjostrom. Sarah is another one of those that

:21:25. > :21:27.is so dominant. When she doesn't take the title, we are almost, what

:21:28. > :21:34.was going on there, as if she's had a bad week? Coming in, you wouldn't

:21:35. > :21:37.have said that, but, all of a sudden here, she is number one in the

:21:38. > :21:43.world. We have always seen her for butterfly. As you say, we start

:21:44. > :21:47.expecting from people. It was interesting hearing her talk earlier

:21:48. > :21:51.in the week about how much she loves being an athlete, and that's what

:21:52. > :21:57.keeps her motivated. Sprinters have a nice life! She just races all year

:21:58. > :22:04.round, Sarah. I don't know how she does it. She has so much that she is

:22:05. > :22:08.able to do it. She holds her breath in, she doesn't look around. No clue

:22:09. > :22:13.what's going on in the race, she just goes for it. She still got a

:22:14. > :22:19.silver medal in the 100 metres freestyle, which isn't too is

:22:20. > :22:26.shabby. It's a case of coming into this, they would have liked four

:22:27. > :22:28.golds. A great lesson for kids. Especially on sprinting, you talk

:22:29. > :22:33.about not worrying about anybody else, because you can only affect

:22:34. > :22:37.yourself. But the blinkers on, put your head down and concentrate on

:22:38. > :22:44.yourself there is no time to think about anybody else. She got a really

:22:45. > :22:50.good start. Kromowidjojo Yeo, she won World Championships in 13, and

:22:51. > :22:53.she pulled it out. I think that Sarah Sjostrom would have broken her

:22:54. > :22:59.own record if she hadn't done a funny finish. I have had the

:23:00. > :23:01.foggiest what that was. Is it hard for people to appreciate how

:23:02. > :23:09.impressive that was, not breathing over 50 metres? There are not that

:23:10. > :23:13.many 50-metre pools. People try to do it at home and you find, putting

:23:14. > :23:21.in your maximum effort, I couldn't even go to 15! We went to a fun pool

:23:22. > :23:23.the other day and we were doing lengths under water. Rebecca

:23:24. > :23:33.Adlington didn't do bikini came down. That was a Swedish superstar

:23:34. > :23:38.and let's talk about one of our British superstars, Adam Peaty. He

:23:39. > :23:41.has defended his two world titles, smashed his British record, and he

:23:42. > :23:49.has a world record. He has been talking to Becky.

:23:50. > :24:03.Adam Peaty's destroyed the rest of the world, Bob Little Richard them.

:24:04. > :24:05.-- obliterated them. 25.95! This is quite amazing, absolutely brilliant

:24:06. > :24:12.breaststroke swimming. He's done the double double. Amazing for me,

:24:13. > :24:16.getting that special 25. So close to the world-record 100. I wanted to

:24:17. > :24:23.get all of my titles again and obviously defend the actual, but at

:24:24. > :24:27.the same time I knew I had to attack everything I had to get the special

:24:28. > :24:36.time I needed. Such a nice reaction after that 50. I couldn't believe

:24:37. > :24:39.what I did there. Because I've done two of them, it means I'm an

:24:40. > :24:46.official 25 swimmer. If you do once, it's a fluke. Project 56, is that

:24:47. > :24:52.for Tokyo? Did you think you could do it here? Post-Rio, I wasn't sure

:24:53. > :24:58.or bothered when I did it but, as long as I get it by Tokyo, I'll be

:24:59. > :25:02.happy. That swim on the 25 point gave me a huge confidence. I can

:25:03. > :25:06.take it and bring it back. I think it's going to wake some people up.

:25:07. > :25:12.The rest of the world are still on 58 highs, which is good. Cameron Van

:25:13. > :25:19.Der Burgh actually said you have created a new stroke. I think he

:25:20. > :25:23.called it a metamorphosis, between a butterfly and a caterpillar. It's

:25:24. > :25:26.different to everybody else's stroke, because it's about power,

:25:27. > :25:30.fluidity and balance. Everybody says that the 50 breast is about rate and

:25:31. > :25:35.power, but if you don't have the balance between technique and

:25:36. > :25:38.tactics, because you have to think about when you are going to pace and

:25:39. > :25:39.go ahead, if you don't have balance in all areas, you're not going to

:25:40. > :26:00.swim a fast breaststroke. Oh, my God! Have a look at yours.

:26:01. > :26:07.Bloody hell! I thought she got it tattooed down her whole side. You

:26:08. > :26:13.are like Justin Bieber around this poolside. Are you aware of the

:26:14. > :26:16.reaction back home and the support? I'm in and out of Instagram. I sit

:26:17. > :26:20.there all day is flicking through it. I'm aware that people at home

:26:21. > :26:25.are quite happy with what I've done, which is great, because I wanted to

:26:26. > :26:30.say thank you to everybody that has supported me it means so much when I

:26:31. > :26:35.stand in that call room knowing the whole country is behind me. You're

:26:36. > :26:38.such a big part of the team. Are you aware you are a role model? Do you

:26:39. > :26:44.say stuff to some of the Rockies do you leave them be? I almost want to

:26:45. > :26:49.leave them be because they have to find their own path. -- some of the

:26:50. > :26:55.rockys. The culture now is so set in that they don't need to be reminded

:26:56. > :27:00.what we expect other. It's not like, oh, he's so cool, he's late for the

:27:01. > :27:03.meeting. It's like, get to the meet earlier. This is how you are

:27:04. > :27:11.supposed to represent the country. It's something to be ploughed. Think

:27:12. > :27:15.you can do something in the relay? The Americans are on form, their

:27:16. > :27:20.backstroke is in and out of form. It's looking like a good

:27:21. > :27:24.opportunity. Our backstroke is our weakest link at the moment, but

:27:25. > :27:27.Chris will hopefully put in a good job, and me and Jimmy were put in a

:27:28. > :27:29.good job and we hopefully will bring it home. But you are talking about a

:27:30. > :27:39.very close race. That relay is going to be on this

:27:40. > :27:44.evening at 6:25pm, so more opportunities for Britain to add to

:27:45. > :27:50.their medal haul. The national anthem of the USA plays behind us

:27:51. > :27:54.for Lilly King, who took victory in the women's 50-metre breaststroke.

:27:55. > :27:57.Let's talk about Adam Peaty. You heard him say he feels a

:27:58. > :28:05.responsibility to the rest of the team. But he is a superstar. How

:28:06. > :28:09.hard is it to stay focused? What we are witnessing in Adam is someone

:28:10. > :28:13.who is so dominant that we almost expect the gold medals, and to have

:28:14. > :28:17.that must be brilliant for the team and the confidence of the team. We

:28:18. > :28:22.haven't been discussing whether he's going to win this week, we've been

:28:23. > :28:29.discussing how much he's going to win world Best Buy. How brilliant is

:28:30. > :28:34.that for the team? He is doing phenomenal things in terms of the

:28:35. > :28:41.times and is a dominant character, but how closely is he being watched

:28:42. > :28:46.and analysed and copied? Ad has said in the past that he and his coach

:28:47. > :28:51.have noticed people trying to film him because they want to replicate

:28:52. > :28:57.his stroke. But you cannot replicate him because he is just a beast, and

:28:58. > :29:02.it suits him. Every single athletes wins differently. He has created his

:29:03. > :29:07.own stroke, in a way, but that works for Adam. That is his stroke. They

:29:08. > :29:12.don't think they are going to start from scratch and do it a bit

:29:13. > :29:21.different. I think he just swam technically better. His efficiency,

:29:22. > :29:24.a bit like Michael Phelps, he just swims better. His velocity is at the

:29:25. > :29:28.same at the start and the end, through the power he is generating

:29:29. > :29:33.through all of those gym sessions he's doing. He is destroying guys in

:29:34. > :29:38.the last 50 metres. It's scary how fast he goes at the end of his

:29:39. > :29:43.races. People from the athletics world say to us, in the swimming

:29:44. > :29:48.pool, you break world records all the time, how was it constantly

:29:49. > :29:53.evolving? It is what is going on under the water. People are

:29:54. > :29:57.constantly learning and evolving. It is like Ronaldo kicking a ball, he

:29:58. > :30:03.kicks it differently to everyone else. People start copying and

:30:04. > :30:08.trying to catch him. Is it a daft question to ask how fast he can go?

:30:09. > :30:14.Is their era cut off point with Adam? I don't think there is. Nobody

:30:15. > :30:20.expected the 25 point over the 50 coming into this. He surprised

:30:21. > :30:25.himself. He has project 56. There is no end to Adam, unless he gets ill

:30:26. > :30:29.or injured. I think he's going to keep getting faster and faster,

:30:30. > :30:35.because he will get more powerful as well. How nice was it to see him a

:30:36. > :30:42.bit surprised at that time? We see him so focused, confident and in the

:30:43. > :30:48.zone, he was a bit surprised, wasn't he? He's in such a purple patch at

:30:49. > :30:51.the moment. When you are doing performances where you don't even

:30:52. > :30:55.understand how you are getting there and how you are moving the sport

:30:56. > :31:01.forward... I think he is benefiting so much not just from his coach, but

:31:02. > :31:05.from the whole team around him, who are brilliant. I'm scared at how

:31:06. > :31:13.fast he can move breaststroke swimming up. If he goes 50 seconds

:31:14. > :31:18.-- 56 seconds on breast strokes, it will just be ridiculous. What

:31:19. > :31:22.effectively having on his young team-mates, because he has moved

:31:23. > :31:28.with Mel and there are some young guys coming through? Adam is just so

:31:29. > :31:33.humble. He is normal to them. We have seen Sarah Vasey go in the 50

:31:34. > :31:39.metres breaststroke tonight, and to have someone like Adam around you,

:31:40. > :31:45.who is a real role model. He does inspire you. We all have bad days,

:31:46. > :31:51.but you look at Adam and you go, OK, let's crack on. In terms of his

:31:52. > :31:55.training, he is a machine. We can all do that! We did that this

:31:56. > :32:00.morning in the gym! It's just that my belly didn't get off the ground

:32:01. > :32:13.at that point! We all go through phases. You are always looking for

:32:14. > :32:16.that tiny edge. We are always going, how much bench can we left. It is

:32:17. > :32:18.about how fast you go through the water. The guy is completely focused

:32:19. > :32:24.on every element of the training, from the water to the gym to his

:32:25. > :32:29.diet. I'm not sure about the press up, but we are going to see your

:32:30. > :32:33.sprinting prowess in action, because you need to get back to the

:32:34. > :32:42.commentary box. It's time now for the men's 50-metre backstroke final.

:32:43. > :32:51.COMMENTATOR: The fastest qualifier for this final, Camille Le Corps.

:32:52. > :33:00.His last ever swim. 32 years of age. He is the double champion, 2013 and

:33:01. > :33:06.2015. Can he do three in a row? He has a heck of a challenge, because

:33:07. > :33:15.his team-mate, Jeremy Stravius, he could do it. He is in lane one.

:33:16. > :33:22.Second fastest qualifier, Koga, in lane five. Two Americans in two and

:33:23. > :33:29.three, and they are very fast. Here comes Lacourt. 32 years of age. He's

:33:30. > :33:38.bought a nightclub. That is the kind of guy he is. He's a good-looking

:33:39. > :33:45.guy, isn't he? He could win this. It is ageing somewhat Camille Lacourt

:33:46. > :33:54.swim. -- it is amazing. He manages to get his arms round. Nose clip

:33:55. > :33:59.there? I don't like them. I don't think you should be a double world

:34:00. > :34:03.champion still wearing a nose clip. Steve, he is the double world

:34:04. > :34:13.champion. The last time you did backstroke underwater without a nose

:34:14. > :34:17.clip? I think it was the Europeans. The world record set by Liam Tancock

:34:18. > :34:32.eight years ago. He won two world titles. Lacourt has won two. Will he

:34:33. > :34:39.win a third? Matt Grevers is in lane three. This is getting so hard to

:34:40. > :34:48.call. 50 metres backstroke. The favourite in four.

:34:49. > :34:54.A fascinating start from Koga. We will come back to that. The black

:34:55. > :35:02.hat in the centre there, and the white hat of Lacourt, who has some

:35:03. > :35:09.work to do. This is his last race. Is he going to win his third World

:35:10. > :35:14.Championship title in a row? The world record is safe. Liam Tancock's

:35:15. > :35:20.world record, but it is a third World Championship title in a row in

:35:21. > :35:25.his very last race. What does it mean to Lacourt of France? That may

:35:26. > :35:30.well have saved the World Championships for France. They have

:35:31. > :35:36.had an absolute shocker. Koga the Silver, Grevers the bronze. Lacourt

:35:37. > :35:42.won it quite comfortably in the end. He got a scare from Koga on the

:35:43. > :35:47.start. His start was really, really strong. Maybe we can see on the

:35:48. > :35:52.replay that he came across the front of his chest rather going to the

:35:53. > :36:01.side. That's not something you see very often. Camille Lacourt could

:36:02. > :36:05.not be happier. He has won three times in a row. I cannot believe a

:36:06. > :36:09.guy this tool and this lean can be winning 50 backstroke. It is quite

:36:10. > :36:17.unconventional. A beautiful technique, though. Really still head

:36:18. > :36:23.position, not massive rotation. Wasn't as close as I expected it to

:36:24. > :36:30.be in the end. Look at that finish. Textbook. Getting his hand on the

:36:31. > :36:36.wall first. Wow, look at that. The roar of the lion that wins the third

:36:37. > :36:41.World Championship title in a row, Camille Lacourt of France. The

:36:42. > :36:53.greatest backstroke in the World Championship history now.

:36:54. > :37:00.Congratulations, Camille Lacourt. You can tell it is the final. Was he

:37:01. > :37:05.taking the mick out of a lovely colleague there? He said that he's

:37:06. > :37:11.got his hand on the wall first, and that is the idea! Let's look at that

:37:12. > :37:17.race. I still love that Liam Tancock holds the world record for this,

:37:18. > :37:22.even though he's retired. It is a great world record as well, so fast.

:37:23. > :37:31.He is in the middle lane there, down on Koga, as the boys in commentary

:37:32. > :37:33.was saying, a good foot. Then he is back on already. He was talking

:37:34. > :37:37.about the rotation of his body, where you get the power from. Your

:37:38. > :37:42.head wants to stay still, and as your arms exited the water, you need

:37:43. > :37:46.to turn as much as possible to create as much power as possible. I

:37:47. > :37:52.could demonstrate, but I'm not allowed to stand up! Another

:37:53. > :38:01.fantastic night in the pool. Very loud in here. I feel it would be too

:38:02. > :38:05.soon to call Katie Ledecky a legend, but she certainly deserves a lot of

:38:06. > :38:09.credit. Let's celebrate the woman that has so far one more world

:38:10. > :38:18.titles than any other woman in history.

:38:19. > :38:24.COMMENTATOR: A big shock this, Katie Ledecky. A new Olympic champion. The

:38:25. > :38:30.world champion, the new world record holder, is Katie Ledecky of the USA.

:38:31. > :38:40.That is extraordinary. A massive world record. One of the greatest

:38:41. > :38:46.women swimmers I have ever seen. Goodness me, the goal to Katie

:38:47. > :38:53.Ledecky of the USA. A world record. This gold medal makes Katie Ledecky

:38:54. > :39:01.the most successful female in World Championship swimming history.

:39:02. > :39:08.What a week it has been for Katie Ledecky. We have been calling her a

:39:09. > :39:22.medal machine all week, and the numbers don't lie. That is Katie's

:39:23. > :39:26.global medal haul. Five of those have been this week. I am delighted

:39:27. > :39:28.to say that Katie is with us in the studio now. Thank you, Katie. You

:39:29. > :39:31.have had such a successful week, I imagine everyone is clambering to

:39:32. > :39:36.have a word with you. What were you looking for this week, titles or

:39:37. > :39:40.times? I didn't really set specific times or goals. I just wanted to

:39:41. > :39:46.back up my titles from two years ago and put together some really good

:39:47. > :39:51.races, and step on the relays for Team USA. You certainly did that.

:39:52. > :39:56.You are the most successful female swimmer at the World Championships

:39:57. > :40:00.ever. Quite a thing to boast about, but you don't seem like that kind of

:40:01. > :40:06.person at all. You have gone to university. How have things changed

:40:07. > :40:12.for you at Stanford? I moved from Washington, DC to Stamford on the

:40:13. > :40:18.West Coast. I was part of a really great team that won a championship,

:40:19. > :40:22.and then I turned by focus towards World Championships, and did it all

:40:23. > :40:28.while starting school up and getting adjusted to all the new things that

:40:29. > :40:31.came with that. You seem a lot stronger this meet. We have said you

:40:32. > :40:38.look a lot more massively. Is it hard to focus on the two? I think

:40:39. > :40:44.all of the strength training, and trying to get faster on the shorter

:40:45. > :40:48.races, finding little ways to improve, which will hopefully pay

:40:49. > :40:52.off in the future. On campus, do people treat you differently because

:40:53. > :40:57.you have done what you have done? You are a legend of the sport at a

:40:58. > :41:03.young age. Do people want selfies with Q? Once in a while, but for the

:41:04. > :41:18.most part, everybody is very respectful. Everybody is unique and

:41:19. > :41:21.has done amazing things, so I am as interested in meeting them as they

:41:22. > :41:23.are to meet me. It is an inspiring environment to be in everyday, the

:41:24. > :41:27.dorms and the classrooms, meeting my classmates and my professors. What

:41:28. > :41:31.is it like now compared to the Olympics, when you were the Rookie

:41:32. > :41:35.of the team? You are not a veteran, but you are one of the more

:41:36. > :41:43.experienced guys now. Do they look up to you with yellow I still feel

:41:44. > :41:48.like I am on the younger end. We had a 15-year-old and 17-year-old on the

:41:49. > :41:54.women's team this year, and I see so much of me in them from when I was

:41:55. > :42:00.15 at the London games, so just trying to pass on any little words

:42:01. > :42:02.of advice. They are so mature and already seem like they feel they

:42:03. > :42:12.belong at this level. I bet it only seemed to minute since

:42:13. > :42:20.you were looking up to Becky. Didn't you write to her? She was so nice to

:42:21. > :42:25.me after 2012. It was amazing to race her and have that opportunity.

:42:26. > :42:31.I'm so glad that I'm out of your era! I don't fancy the chances. I

:42:32. > :42:36.imagine, when you were a young swimmer, you had a list of boxes to

:42:37. > :42:42.take. You've may be tipped them all. How do you stay motivated? Always

:42:43. > :42:47.trying to set new and bigger goals. It gets harder as you start checking

:42:48. > :42:50.those boxes, but there are still things for me to improve, and those

:42:51. > :42:57.are the things that will push me moving forward. Will you go in for

:42:58. > :43:00.the 100, or is that too short? May be too short. I hope I can get

:43:01. > :43:08.faster to help out the relay as much as I can. What's the plan for Tokyo?

:43:09. > :43:14.They've added the 1500. What's your goal? I haven't set my goals for

:43:15. > :43:18.2020. I wanted to get through this yet get a feel for everything, and

:43:19. > :43:21.with the new schedule out something I'll have two looked at carefully

:43:22. > :43:25.and planned with my coaches. Just taking a break for a couple of weeks

:43:26. > :43:30.after this meet and getting back into it and starting to set those

:43:31. > :43:35.goals and get my eyes focused for 2020. Thank you for talking to us.

:43:36. > :43:40.I'd like to say, go and celebrate, but I expect you want. I will be

:43:41. > :43:45.cheering my team like crazy tonight, that's about it! Plenty for Katie

:43:46. > :43:53.Ledecky to celebrate. We've just heard the American national anthem

:43:54. > :43:58.playing at for Chase Kalisz, who won the men's 400 metres medley. If

:43:59. > :44:02.you've just joined us, commiserations to Max Litchfield,

:44:03. > :44:06.who missed out on a place in the podium in that 400 I am. He was so

:44:07. > :44:13.close, finishing fourth. It was a tough one. He still had a great

:44:14. > :44:17.swim, a British and Commonwealth record and a fantastic swim. Such a

:44:18. > :44:23.shame to miss out on the medals. Wright fourth in Rio and in the

:44:24. > :44:27.world, hopefully that will fuel him. Let's turn our attention to Hannah

:44:28. > :44:31.Miley. She calls herself a veteran of the team but she confesses she is

:44:32. > :44:38.as excited about this competition as she was about her first. Let's hear

:44:39. > :44:43.from her. It's kind of nice. I am the veteran of a team and I have

:44:44. > :44:47.been around a fair bit, but I enjoyed the experience and still

:44:48. > :44:51.being challenged, especially by the youngsters. It keeps me refreshed

:44:52. > :44:55.and energised. I think, if everything stayed the same, it would

:44:56. > :44:59.get stagnant and boring. I'm still finding it quite exciting and

:45:00. > :45:03.enjoying it. It's another year, another World Championships, so it

:45:04. > :45:07.keeps moving forward. No different to any other World Championships or

:45:08. > :45:12.Olympics I've been to. It's still a major meet for me and my target is

:45:13. > :45:19.to be the fastest I can be. She is one of the most loved members of the

:45:20. > :45:22.team, because of her character, so what do you make of her chance of

:45:23. > :45:29.getting amongst the medals, based on this morning? She had a solid heat

:45:30. > :45:32.time this morning. It's a jam-packed final, so it will be tough. She is

:45:33. > :45:38.in lane eight, but she has got Leah Smith next to her. On the butterfly,

:45:39. > :45:42.she is always a bit further behind, so don't panic. She always pulled it

:45:43. > :45:47.out of the bag. I think it will be tough for her. She's got a lot of

:45:48. > :45:53.experience and she has won medals. Not the Olympic medal she is after,

:45:54. > :45:56.she is one of the oldest trimmers on the field, in lane eight, which I

:45:57. > :46:01.think is good for her, she will just get on and do her thing. In the

:46:02. > :46:04.past, she's been in the middle, and because her fly isn't the strongest,

:46:05. > :46:10.they go away and she is constantly trying to chase them down. Katinka

:46:11. > :46:15.Hosszu will be in the middle of this place will go ballistic in four and

:46:16. > :46:18.a half minutes, like, now. But Mireia Belmonte has had a great

:46:19. > :46:23.meet. I think it will be between those two in the middle. If she does

:46:24. > :46:28.her own race, she's got a shot at a bronze. I'm going to hand over to

:46:29. > :46:32.Andy and Steve, because the home crowd is going to go crackers for

:46:33. > :46:36.Katinka Hosszu. She has one goals in the bag already this week and she's

:46:37. > :46:47.looking for a second. -- won gold in the bag. In lane four, Katinka

:46:48. > :46:55.Hosszu, already the most successful women's 400 medley swimmer in

:46:56. > :47:03.history. She won gold in 2009, 2013 and 2015. Can she get four? Olympic

:47:04. > :47:16.gold and bronze in four and five. And, well, two Japanese in this

:47:17. > :47:22.final, and they are in lanes one and two, Sakiko Shimizu finished eighth

:47:23. > :47:28.in the Olympics. Sydney Pickrem from Canada, that was a bit of a

:47:29. > :47:32.fascinating race. Yet, on the 200 metres individual medley, she went

:47:33. > :47:37.out on the butterfly lane and then I took my eyes off her and, coming

:47:38. > :47:40.back, her lane was empty. She took on too much water, she chucked a

:47:41. > :47:47.bit, and she climbed out of the pool. I've never seen that before.

:47:48. > :47:50.-- she choked a bit. When I was 11, I remember swimming a race in

:47:51. > :47:57.somebody's fault, but that was a long time ago. Oh, my word! --

:47:58. > :48:02.swimming a race and somebody stop. As a swimmer who is not receiving

:48:03. > :48:06.this cheering for one of the other countries apart from Hungary, it can

:48:07. > :48:09.either completely make or break the race. It's a very interesting

:48:10. > :48:16.experience. That was for Katinka Hosszu, who has won seven world

:48:17. > :48:20.course titles, gold on the 200 medley here, but if you are going to

:48:21. > :48:25.be a world-class medley swimmer, you've got to have four great

:48:26. > :48:27.strokes. She got bronze on the 200 fly, silver on the 200 silver at the

:48:28. > :48:33.European Championships on the freestyle. Steve. How can you beat

:48:34. > :48:40.somebody like this on the 400 medley? She is the complete package.

:48:41. > :48:43.She destroyed the field at the Olympics by five seconds. If you can

:48:44. > :48:49.replicate that in a 4.26, she'll have room to spare. I think she

:48:50. > :48:54.might be getting tired. She's had a full programme this week and plenty

:48:55. > :48:59.of people are slacking off. She has radical programme, but multiple

:49:00. > :49:07.golds normally. -- she has had a full programme. Katinka Hosszu in

:49:08. > :49:17.four for Hungary. Hannah Miley in eight at the bottom of the shot.

:49:18. > :49:27.World Championship final, the women's 400 metres individual

:49:28. > :49:31.medley, and the champion for 200 -- 2009 13 and 15, can she win her

:49:32. > :49:36.fourth title? She's gone off like a shot in the centre with a white hat.

:49:37. > :49:43.One lane to the right is Mireia Belmonte, and fascinatingly Mireia

:49:44. > :49:49.Belmonte won the 200 fly. She is no respecter of titles, Katinka Hosszu.

:49:50. > :49:51.She was only a couple of tenths of a second behind her, and she is taking

:49:52. > :49:57.this out. She doesn't want to disappoint a home crowd. This will

:49:58. > :50:02.be the most popular win of the week. She has the world record and it

:50:03. > :50:06.looks like, from the first 100, she doesn't plan on losing. But Mireia

:50:07. > :50:11.Belmonte is strong as well. She is with her. Looking good at the

:50:12. > :50:17.moment, Mireia Belmonte, but a big push down the first 100 for Katinka

:50:18. > :50:20.Hosszu. She won gold at the 200 medley and the world record at the

:50:21. > :50:27.Olympics game. And she is turning first. Just outside her own world

:50:28. > :50:32.record pace, a quarter of a second down. She is building into this

:50:33. > :50:37.backstroke. She was an Olympic champion on backstroke last year,

:50:38. > :50:44.and she's going to work this first 50 and built into the second of take

:50:45. > :50:47.that momentum into her breaststroke. She is stamping her authority on

:50:48. > :50:52.this final. I didn't think she'd be this far away from the field at this

:50:53. > :50:58.stage. Mireia Belmonte trying to hang onto her feet. At the bottom is

:50:59. > :51:04.Hannah Miley, going well, turning in this position. She is about .5 of a

:51:05. > :51:09.second outside the medals at the moment, but the breaststroke leg

:51:10. > :51:13.really sort them out. The lead for Katinka Hosszu at the moment is

:51:14. > :51:18.enormous. The only question is, is she pushing too hard down the first

:51:19. > :51:22.200? Write on her own world record line. If she could break the world

:51:23. > :51:27.record here, this roof would come off. She is committed, and it's

:51:28. > :51:34.going to start hurting. She's only outside the world record in three

:51:35. > :51:39.tenths of a second. See how hard she works on the breaststroke. She needs

:51:40. > :51:42.to leave a bid for the freestyle. The Japanese, she is the world

:51:43. > :51:46.number one at the moment, and she's starting to work her breaststroke.

:51:47. > :51:49.There are only two people in our picture at the moment, and she

:51:50. > :51:57.really is dismantling the rest of the field. At the top, Yui Ohashi is

:51:58. > :52:00.the world number one coming into this championships, and she has a

:52:01. > :52:04.fantastic breaststroke. From lane one to get a medal would be

:52:05. > :52:10.something. She is starting to catch Hosszu. That was a tired rest stroke

:52:11. > :52:16.switch. She has maybe dropped a second and a quarter from her world

:52:17. > :52:22.record. -- breaststroke switch. On the right is one of the Japanese

:52:23. > :52:26.swimmers. Hannah Miley looks slightly out of the medals with the

:52:27. > :52:30.freestyle to go. Wait to see her having a go at the bottom on the

:52:31. > :52:34.left. But look at Katinka Hosszu, just winding it up with every

:52:35. > :52:39.stroke. You can feel the crowd willing her every time lifts her

:52:40. > :52:42.head up. They are shouting for help, try to get her home. It's a right

:52:43. > :52:48.old ding-dong for second and third, only a second separating six people

:52:49. > :52:52.from this morning. But Katinka Hosszu has lost so much time from

:52:53. > :52:55.that world record, but she is so dominant. She can stop for a cup of

:52:56. > :53:01.tea with 50 metres to go and still win. A great race going on, with

:53:02. > :53:05.four people who could potentially win the silver and bronze. Look for

:53:06. > :53:10.the strong finishers, Leah Smith and Mireia Belmonte. The pink suit of

:53:11. > :53:16.Mireia Belmonte in the centre. One lane closer to us than the leader.

:53:17. > :53:24.She charges down the freestyle leg, and now she's chasing Sydney Pickrem

:53:25. > :53:27.of Canada. Goodness me, the charge of Mireia Belmonte in pink is

:53:28. > :53:30.extraordinary. I don't think for a second she can catch Katinka Hosszu,

:53:31. > :53:37.but look at this. Sydney Pickrem tried with her. On the right is Yui

:53:38. > :53:41.Ohashi of Japan. But it looks like it's going to be a fourth World

:53:42. > :53:47.Championship title for the fantastic Katinka Hosszu, the world

:53:48. > :53:54.record-holder. She is the four-time world champion, and the crowd have

:53:55. > :53:57.gone nuts. Gold to Hungary, silver to Belmonte of Spain, and a very

:53:58. > :54:01.good bronze medal from Sydney Pickrem of Canada. Great Britain's

:54:02. > :54:05.Hannah Miley finishing in eighth. A tired race from her, but the attack

:54:06. > :54:11.down the first 200 was extraordinary. Look how tired she

:54:12. > :54:14.is. She didn't even have the strength to celebrate at the end.

:54:15. > :54:19.But this crowd have an absolutely wild. This, at the end of the week,

:54:20. > :54:23.where she has raised over 5000 metres. Mariah Belmonte, a well

:54:24. > :54:27.worked silver medal in the competition record at the end of

:54:28. > :54:33.such a heavy schedule. She has found the energy to celebrate. And this

:54:34. > :54:41.girl, she's just done wonders for swimming in Hungary. What a great

:54:42. > :54:47.way for her to finish was a gutsy way to go about it as well. That

:54:48. > :54:50.first 200, just out of her own world record place. I don't think she is

:54:51. > :54:56.in that kind of form, she had a crack. Very good technique as well.

:54:57. > :55:02.It amazes me, this first bit, the middle of the picture, turning one

:55:03. > :55:05.lane closer to us,. She wasn't afraid. She took an Mariah Belmonte,

:55:06. > :55:11.showing her who was boss. Good technique. The coach always gets a

:55:12. > :55:15.bit of airtime. But the backstroke, being the Olympic champion on the

:55:16. > :55:19.100, that really helped her doing this event because she could pull

:55:20. > :55:21.away. There is no way that somebody should be winning a 400 medley by

:55:22. > :55:30.that distance. Such is her domination. While! Look at those

:55:31. > :55:38.muscles, man! I think Steve has got a little bit of muscle envy. There's

:55:39. > :55:43.her husband. Look at those tattoos. World record of his left arm, the

:55:44. > :55:49.same on his right arm, celebrating the 200 and 400 medley. He is not

:55:50. > :55:53.only her husband to the great Katinka Hosszu but also swimming

:55:54. > :56:01.coach as well. They go around the world together. So, for the fourth

:56:02. > :56:05.time, world champion women's 400 metres individual medley, it is

:56:06. > :56:10.Katinka Hosszu Hungary, the first time it's ever been won in a's home

:56:11. > :56:12.country. And the embrace of husband and wife. Hannah Miley finished in

:56:13. > :56:22.eighth. Hannah, you have been to many

:56:23. > :56:28.competitions. Have you ever been to one as loud as this? It's amazing.

:56:29. > :56:36.It genuinely feels like another Olympics. It's a great environment.

:56:37. > :56:43.If anything, maybe a little bit more than the one in Glasgow. You have

:56:44. > :56:48.been competing for a very long time, and this is a tough event. How are

:56:49. > :56:56.you maintaining your inspiration to keep going? Physically, I feel very

:56:57. > :57:00.good. I think I need to get it sorted psychologically. I'm not

:57:01. > :57:06.going to make any excuses. It's not as good as I wanted it to be. Pretty

:57:07. > :57:10.pants. I genuinely thought I had it all together, but it didn't work

:57:11. > :57:18.out. I need to go back and look at it. I need to learn things from Rio

:57:19. > :57:25.mentally more so than physically. I will get there. It is a learning

:57:26. > :57:32.curve. It will not always go up and up. Sometimes it will come down. I

:57:33. > :57:37.will need to pick myself up. You are training in a new 50-metre pool. Are

:57:38. > :57:45.your eyes are set on Tokyo? I will take it year on year. I need to see

:57:46. > :57:50.if I've got enough in me to go for another two years. Ideally, I would

:57:51. > :57:53.like to get to Tokyo, but I'm not setting it in stone, because there's

:57:54. > :57:58.a lot of things I need to get right in order to be at my best at that

:57:59. > :58:05.time. Thank you very much, Hannah. Thank you. The classy Hannah Miley

:58:06. > :58:11.there. It was can tinker Hosszu who took the top spot in that individual

:58:12. > :58:19.medley, celebrating with her husband there. They really are a force to be

:58:20. > :58:25.reckoned with. There are little kids wandering round Hungary with iron

:58:26. > :58:33.hats on, because of their hero. You don't often get to experience this

:58:34. > :58:38.kind of crowd chanting your name, so congratulations to Katinka Hosszu.

:58:39. > :58:44.Hannah Miley very honest there. She acknowledged that she, in her words,

:58:45. > :58:49.was pretty pants there. It shows that they are human. We have seen

:58:50. > :58:53.some athletes performing better than others. I really like it when

:58:54. > :58:57.someone comes out and just admits what it is, and doesn't blame anyone

:58:58. > :59:03.else, and shows their disappointment. It happens to every

:59:04. > :59:07.single athlete. I feel for Hannah because she is often coming forth

:59:08. > :59:12.and missing out. She was opened as saying she doesn't know what went

:59:13. > :59:18.wrong. I find it unbelievable that a woman who has achieved as much as

:59:19. > :59:26.her has not trained in a 50-metre pool. She had access to one, but she

:59:27. > :59:29.always swam in a short course pool. A 50-metre pool does make a

:59:30. > :59:36.difference if you have access to them. But the whole collegiate

:59:37. > :59:43.system in the USA is 25 yards, nine months EDF. For her, the way she

:59:44. > :59:47.swam, and we are trying to be honest because we've been there and done

:59:48. > :59:53.it. You want swimmers to be honest. If it's not good, it's not good. You

:59:54. > :59:58.go back to the hotel and someone is crying their eyes out, and you look

:59:59. > :00:03.at each other and think, what went wrong? It's been a difficult year

:00:04. > :00:08.for her. Hannah said that she is going to go away, look at what she

:00:09. > :00:14.needs to do, and maybe it is a mindset thing, a psychological

:00:15. > :00:18.thing. One lady we cannot question now is Sarah Sjostrom, who is about

:00:19. > :00:25.to get her medal in the ceremony that is going on behind us now. If

:00:26. > :00:31.you hear a national anthem, that is why. Let's talk about another global

:00:32. > :00:36.superstar, who burst onto the scene in 2012. So far this week he has

:00:37. > :00:40.taken one title in the 200-metre fly. But it has not been plain

:00:41. > :00:47.sailing for our friend from South Africa.

:00:48. > :00:57.COMMENTATOR: A fantastic, gutsy swim. It was a very emotional night.

:00:58. > :01:03.I can see it bubbling up inside you. Explain what made the last year so

:01:04. > :01:13.tough for you? Sorry about that. I try not to cry. It makes use human.

:01:14. > :01:17.It was a tough year. Both of my parents got cancer. We didn't know

:01:18. > :01:23.if they were going to make it. Luckily, it worked out OK. Winning

:01:24. > :01:29.the gold medal, that was a tribute to them, to my mum and my dad. I

:01:30. > :01:33.really wanted to win for them, but I also wanted to be back on top for

:01:34. > :01:39.myself, and for my country, after the disappointing year I had in the

:01:40. > :01:45.pool. Which gold medal gave you the most satisfaction, the Olympic one

:01:46. > :01:52.when you what a young man, or this one this week? It's hard to answer

:01:53. > :01:59.that because the Olympics was great. If the Olympics was ten out of ten,

:02:00. > :02:02.this is 9.5. When you won the gold medal, you came back on the lap

:02:03. > :02:10.incredibly well. This week, you swam the race in a totally different way.

:02:11. > :02:15.He frustrates the life out of me, Chad Le Clos. He has all the talent

:02:16. > :02:18.in the world that sometimes swims like a rookie. Where is the

:02:19. > :02:24.difference in the way that you swim come from? I knew that these guys

:02:25. > :02:29.had good speed and I wanted to come back hard. I wanted to shake it up a

:02:30. > :02:33.bit. I think I had become stale in the way I was racing the last four

:02:34. > :02:39.years. Everybody knew what I was going to do. I had to dig really

:02:40. > :02:45.deep, and the last 20 metres was the most difficult of my career.

:02:46. > :02:50.Michael, you thought you had got rid of him, and then he came back. Are

:02:51. > :02:54.you sure he's gone now? I never wanted to get rid of him. I would

:02:55. > :03:01.rather come second to Michael than... I pride myself on competing

:03:02. > :03:05.with the best. He is the greatest of all time and probably always will

:03:06. > :03:10.be, but if he ever wants to come back, I would love that. He seems

:03:11. > :03:17.very happy in retirement and he has a great family now. Tokyo very much

:03:18. > :03:21.on your radar? Very much. What was on my mind here was redemption, and

:03:22. > :03:27.I've done that now. Tokyo, I just want to keep moving forward, keep

:03:28. > :03:34.the mentality I have now. Just in any happy place. I'm pleased to say

:03:35. > :03:39.clad Le Clos is joining us in the flesh. -- Chad Le Clos. How would

:03:40. > :03:45.you view your weekend? Success in the 200, but then the other didn't

:03:46. > :03:52.go the way you wanted. Good week, bad week? The 100 wasn't as

:03:53. > :03:58.successful, but I was very happy with the other. I was playing around

:03:59. > :04:03.a little bit too much in the semis, so I attribute it to that. We heard

:04:04. > :04:07.you talking about your parents there. Bearing in mind what you've

:04:08. > :04:14.gone through, does that change the way you view your victories and the

:04:15. > :04:19.defeats? It was a very emotional week for me, especially last year.

:04:20. > :04:25.Taking all of the emotions and the sacrifices that my dad made, and the

:04:26. > :04:30.downfall it is be, for me, I am just very happy to be on top of the

:04:31. > :04:35.podium. We saw you atop the podium very emotional indeed, and I think

:04:36. > :04:40.that is why people buy into your character and get behind you, not

:04:41. > :04:44.just your fans in South Africa. What has been different this year to

:04:45. > :04:51.other years? Have you changed your programme? For me, the big change

:04:52. > :04:57.was tactical. With the new coach in Dresden, I am very happy with them,

:04:58. > :05:02.and we've done some amazing things with my technique. I'm very happy

:05:03. > :05:09.with the way things have gone. I like the looking around! I'm very

:05:10. > :05:13.happy. I have tweaked my technique and I am more efficient with my

:05:14. > :05:20.swimming. In the semifinals, you said you made a mistake. What was

:05:21. > :05:24.it? I was taking it too casual. I was very confident. Everybody was

:05:25. > :05:30.asking me if I died in the semifinal. I didn't really think I

:05:31. > :05:35.was dying, and I was a super confident for the 100. Fair play to

:05:36. > :05:40.Dressel, that was a phenomenal swim, probably the best I have ever seen

:05:41. > :05:45.live. I would have loved to be in the final. I'm not saying I would

:05:46. > :05:52.have won all come second, but... Now we have James Guy for our Brits. Do

:05:53. > :05:58.you looking forward to racing games, because he said he is doing the 200

:05:59. > :06:02.as well? He is a good mate of mine. He was telling me two months ago

:06:03. > :06:12.that he was coming for me in the 200 fly. I was like, OK, mate, but now I

:06:13. > :06:19.have seen the 100 fly! He is a good family friend, so excellent. We

:06:20. > :06:24.believe in credit where it's due and criticism where it's justified. I'm

:06:25. > :06:28.going to bring in our commentators, who certainly made their feelings

:06:29. > :06:38.clear about your performance in the 200. Let's have a listen to what

:06:39. > :06:42.they said! Chad, we are such great friends and we commentated on the

:06:43. > :06:48.men's 100 fly the other night. We want to have a chat about your race

:06:49. > :07:00.tactics. You go out so crazy fast. Is that the best way to get the best

:07:01. > :07:03.time you can on the 200 fly? They want to talk through your race

:07:04. > :07:09.tactics. They think you go out too fast? Yes, they told me that

:07:10. > :07:14.yesterday. I was just trying to go out hard. The other guys have a lot

:07:15. > :07:18.of coming back speed. I have to play to my strengths. It's the first time

:07:19. > :07:24.I've done that before. We will see what happens in the future. I don't

:07:25. > :07:29.want to give too much away. I am quite unpredictable, so a lot of the

:07:30. > :07:33.guys don't know what to expect. We are always saying about doing your

:07:34. > :07:40.own race, and that is his race. The other guys see him go and think, can

:07:41. > :07:45.I get back to him? I try to change it up a bit. I think I became stale

:07:46. > :07:50.with the way I raced, and everybody knew what to expect. I have a lot of

:07:51. > :07:56.natural speed, and we've been working a lot on that. Big thanks to

:07:57. > :08:01.my coaching team. It is Steve and Andy's job to talk about what you

:08:02. > :08:02.do, but if they give you any more stick, just wander over there with

:08:03. > :08:21.one of your medals! So the final of the men's 1500

:08:22. > :08:32.metres freestyle. The Italians the big favourites. Detti, and the

:08:33. > :08:38.defending world and Olympic champion, Paltrinieri, in five. The

:08:39. > :08:39.only interesting one for me, well, one of them, Romanchuk of the

:08:40. > :08:53.Ukraine in four. Romanchuk of the Ukraine goes in

:08:54. > :08:58.lane four. The fastest qualifier for this final at the World

:08:59. > :09:02.Championships. Set a lifetime best to qualify, in fastest lane in his

:09:03. > :09:06.first major final of this type. Surely the pressure on him is going

:09:07. > :09:13.to be immense with the two massive Italians either side of him, Detti

:09:14. > :09:17.and Paltrinieri. I like the look of him. A Ukrainian swimmer. He just

:09:18. > :09:24.missed out on the Olympic final last year, and I think that's given him a

:09:25. > :09:30.lot of motivation. Look at the 21-year-old from Australia. The

:09:31. > :09:36.Aussies are having a dirty meet. He's got something to prove here. I

:09:37. > :09:40.think this could work in Romanchuk's favour, because being in between the

:09:41. > :09:45.Italians could really help him out. As long as he sticks with them over

:09:46. > :09:50.the first 500, we will see how the race pans out. At the moment, Horton

:09:51. > :10:04.in the lead, followed by the Italians. Romanchuk in the centre,

:10:05. > :10:10.with the white hat on, between the lead at the moment, Paltrinieri of

:10:11. > :10:15.Italy, and Detti, the second Italian, right next to him. The big

:10:16. > :10:19.guys right in the centre. Becky Adlington has joined as, Olympic

:10:20. > :10:24.champion in the 800 metres freestyle, and world champion as

:10:25. > :10:29.well. Becky, the guy in the white hat in the centre, Romanchuk, is

:10:30. > :10:33.quite inexperienced. Would you prefer to be in a centre lane here

:10:34. > :10:41.next to the Italians, or would you rather be next to someone like

:10:42. > :10:44.Horton at the top? To be in between the Italians, I love their national

:10:45. > :10:53.anthem, so I always want them to win! 1500 is such a long way, and

:10:54. > :10:57.swimming on your own is so hard. I don't know how Katie Ledecky does it

:10:58. > :11:04.every time she gets in the pool. Mack Horton has not had a great

:11:05. > :11:10.week. We always joke that they have not travelled well. But Paltrinieri

:11:11. > :11:17.and Detti, they both have so much skill at this event. They are under

:11:18. > :11:21.world record pace. A lot of the talk is about Paltrinieri and that he can

:11:22. > :11:27.take on the world record set in the Olympic Games in 2012. Just look at

:11:28. > :11:33.the turnover of the Italian compared to the long, easy stroke of

:11:34. > :11:35.Romanchuk. You would say that Romanchuk is a lot more comfortable

:11:36. > :11:50.than Paltrinieri at this stage. Paltrinieri is first, Romanchuk

:11:51. > :11:54.about a second behind. They are starting to drop Mack Horton, which

:11:55. > :11:59.can't be good news for him. Paltrinieri is trying to work hard

:12:00. > :12:03.and swim away a bit from Romanchuk, but Romanchuk is holding onto him. I

:12:04. > :12:09.haven't even started kicking their legs yet. But they look so easy. I

:12:10. > :12:14.wouldn't rule out Detti either. I think we saw that over the 800

:12:15. > :12:19.metres, he want it back up and got into the race. It's over such a long

:12:20. > :12:24.way, which makes this event more exciting in the last 500 metres.

:12:25. > :12:28.Such a brilliant race. I think it's the greatest event in the pool, the

:12:29. > :12:34.1500 metres. They are hurting the whole way. Their lungs will already

:12:35. > :12:42.be on fire, and they've still got 1100 metres to go. They are well

:12:43. > :12:46.committed, both of them. Nearly a second underworld record pace, and

:12:47. > :12:49.Romanchuk is stalking him a whole way, not letting Paltrinieri out of

:12:50. > :12:58.his way. This will be a right scrap the whole way. A ding-dong. Look

:12:59. > :13:02.where name one -- Romanchuk is swimming, right on the lane line. If

:13:03. > :13:09.you get close to the guy, you can get towed along. And Paltrinieri has

:13:10. > :13:13.moved away a bit from the line. He has moved away from the lane line

:13:14. > :13:18.going to outright but is to our left, he is going the other side.

:13:19. > :13:27.Circle swimming? Are you always used to do it,, and I think that

:13:28. > :13:30.Paltrinieri will like having somebody challenging him, because

:13:31. > :13:36.that will push him to get a world record, if that is the mark. When

:13:37. > :13:41.you are racing ahead, over distance events, it's hard to keep the pace

:13:42. > :13:45.up. They've dropped Mack Horton a bit out there in lane one, but

:13:46. > :13:52.hopefully he can stay amongst the race and try and get a medal for the

:13:53. > :13:55.Australians. Detti, one lane up from the white hats, is currently in

:13:56. > :14:00.fifth. He won the gold medal on the 800 freestyle. He is five or six

:14:01. > :14:07.metres back at the moment, but Horton went off quickly. What do you

:14:08. > :14:12.expect from Detti? I wouldn't rule him out. There is still 900 metres

:14:13. > :14:15.to go. This is how Detti swims, winding it up. Unless he's really

:14:16. > :14:23.struggling but, to me, Paltrinieri looks smooth smooth -- looks so

:14:24. > :14:27.smooth. It's such a mental test of strength. When you were doing the

:14:28. > :14:30.800, and they are nearly doubling the distance, but when you are doing

:14:31. > :14:34.that and hurting, how do you convince yourself that you can

:14:35. > :14:41.finish, that you can get to the wall first? It mental games that must be

:14:42. > :14:44.going on and got to be tough. It's mentally and physically tough. I

:14:45. > :14:49.used to feel sick after about 400 metres. We've seen that now. These

:14:50. > :14:54.guys aren't kicking as much yet, but they are still going at the most

:14:55. > :15:00.effort. It is really tough. But I think Paltrinieri will work that

:15:01. > :15:05.race together, and it makes a difference than somebody is pushing

:15:06. > :15:10.you. You say it makes a difference when somebody is pushing you on, but

:15:11. > :15:14.what if he didn't expect him to be there? I'm not sure that Paltrinieri

:15:15. > :15:19.expected Romanchuk to be right on world record pace with him coming

:15:20. > :15:28.into 700 metres. Will it freak you out are you he's there? I don't

:15:29. > :15:32.think it will freak him out. We have seen another swimmer traditionally

:15:33. > :15:35.isn't doing it here, but he is up for the challenge. Toonie,

:15:36. > :15:44.Paltrinieri, I just think he will probably like Liberty -- he'll

:15:45. > :15:48.probably like the race. Paltrinieri keeps trying to go but Romanchuk is

:15:49. > :15:54.having none of it. He's sticking to him like glue. Just look at the

:15:55. > :15:58.turnover. I think Paltrinieri is probably working hard at this stage,

:15:59. > :16:01.but that's what the Olympic champion tries to do, to break the will of

:16:02. > :16:10.the field. It doesn't seem to me to be working. I think that turns are a

:16:11. > :16:13.bit better from Romanchuk. He looks smoother, easier and longer, he

:16:14. > :16:17.doesn't look like he's exerting the same amount of effort, but that's

:16:18. > :16:23.probably is struck. It looks like he's just swimming down. Yes, half

:16:24. > :16:31.speed. The last turn was the halfway turn. Right from the gun, Gregorio

:16:32. > :16:36.Paltrinieri of Italy, the defending world champion and Olympic champion

:16:37. > :16:41.in this 1500 freestyle, as lead, but right with him every single stroke

:16:42. > :16:44.is Mykhailo Romanchuk of the Ukraine. Still going reasonably

:16:45. > :16:50.well, just outside your shot at the top, is the Australian Mack Horton.

:16:51. > :16:56.A silver medal in the 400 free. You can see him at the top. But he is

:16:57. > :17:00.slowly being dropped by these two in the centre, and I keep thinking that

:17:01. > :17:03.Paltrinieri is going to start swimming away from Romanchuk, but

:17:04. > :17:09.it's still not happening. Less than half a second. The pace is

:17:10. > :17:14.blistering. This would have finished them in fourth place in the 800

:17:15. > :17:18.free. They've got to turn around and do another 700 metres on top of

:17:19. > :17:24.this. You know, if they keep going at this pace, a good challenge the

:17:25. > :17:27.world record. But that is a beautiful stroke, look at high

:17:28. > :17:32.elbows that Romanchuk has, pulling him through the water. We'll look at

:17:33. > :17:40.his right hand when he enters next time does a little flip-flop wiggle.

:17:41. > :17:44.It's a technical term. Next time we see Romanchuk's, I think it's his

:17:45. > :17:47.right hand on the underwater shot, it might happen on the way back, but

:17:48. > :17:53.will have a look at it because it's strange. We always talk about what

:17:54. > :17:57.we can see with swimmers on top of the water, but so much is going on

:17:58. > :18:02.underneath, and that's why I think Romanchuk's stroke looks so long.

:18:03. > :18:06.Very easy. Neither of them have altered their legs yet, so it will

:18:07. > :18:13.be interesting to see when they turn it on, will top the pace and build

:18:14. > :18:18.in the leg kick. Will have a look in a second. I'm sure they'll give us a

:18:19. > :18:21.decent underwater shots. I think right now is the time when

:18:22. > :18:25.Paltrinieri is starting to go. It looks like he's working it harder.

:18:26. > :18:33.It looks like the intensity is increasing. That's the 1000 metres

:18:34. > :18:36.turn, in this final of the men's 1500 metres freestyle, and the gap

:18:37. > :18:42.is 0.5 of a second, between the leaders. Paltrinieri in the black

:18:43. > :18:46.hat closer to us, Romanchuk in second place, and Detti starting to

:18:47. > :18:50.catch up Mack Horton in third and fourth. This will be interesting.

:18:51. > :18:56.Still about a five or six-metre gap at the top. You can see the yellow

:18:57. > :19:02.hat of Mack Horton. But Detti starting to wind it up, but he has a

:19:03. > :19:07.long way to go to catching up. 0.99 as well. A great turn from

:19:08. > :19:13.Romanchuk. Paltrinieri is winding it up the whole time. Often on 1500,

:19:14. > :19:16.the guys like to swim in 500-metre blocks, so mentally he's in the end

:19:17. > :19:24.phase now. He could start to wind it up and get a head of Romanchuk. But

:19:25. > :19:28.the 20-year-old is like iron, tough as old boots, sticking to him. He is

:19:29. > :19:34.trying to break him and looks like he's going away, but has he gone too

:19:35. > :19:39.soon? Will Romanchuk comeback? Every lane, you think he's got it, and it

:19:40. > :19:44.keeps coming back. Romanchuk hasn't swung all week so he might have the

:19:45. > :19:48.energy. He's been chilling out. Meanwhile, Paltrinieri has been

:19:49. > :19:51.doing events. At the European and Olympic champion in the black cap,

:19:52. > :19:59.it looks like he might have the measure of Romanchuk. Is certainly

:20:00. > :20:03.seen him now. It was 0.90 nine. 1.1, still under world record pace. When

:20:04. > :20:10.that record was set, the last 150 metres with the winner at London in

:20:11. > :20:15.2012, it was the most astonishing thing I've seen. To break the world

:20:16. > :20:19.record, you'll have to be way ahead. But I think that Romanchuk is seen

:20:20. > :20:23.Paltrinieri starting to move. I'm not sure he's quite good enough in

:20:24. > :20:32.his tank to go with him right now it was 1.1. -- not quite got enough.

:20:33. > :20:35.0.9. He's clawing back. I think that Romanchuk is starting to kick a bit

:20:36. > :20:38.more but I don't think that Paltrinieri has turned it on yet.

:20:39. > :20:44.They are probably hurting a bit at this stage. It's horrible, this

:20:45. > :20:52.stage. You feel like you want to be sick. That was 200 metres ago! Watch

:20:53. > :20:56.Romanchuk on this turn. He is double clutch breathing. To one side and

:20:57. > :21:04.then immediately to the other to get a breath. He's taken 0.3 out of him

:21:05. > :21:09.on 15. But surely Romanchuk can start to wind this, to up his tempo.

:21:10. > :21:15.Coming back down the length, it seems like Romanchuk catches a bit

:21:16. > :21:19.and then is swimming away from the start and finish board, it's like

:21:20. > :21:23.Paltrinieri gets a bit more. Every time he leaves away from

:21:24. > :21:30.Paltrinieri, Romanchuk, he seems to catch up a bit. The distance, 1.0,

:21:31. > :21:34.so he's got up again. Fascinating. Starting to go to their legs.

:21:35. > :21:41.Romanchuk is starting to kick a bit more. He has to if he's going to

:21:42. > :21:46.make a move. It has to be now, with 200 ago. The agony these fellows

:21:47. > :21:50.must be experiencing is huge, and it is a test of well, this event, more

:21:51. > :21:57.than any other, who wants it the most. -- a test of wills.

:21:58. > :22:03.Paltrinieri, 1.5. Every time he goes from left to right, Paltrinieri

:22:04. > :22:06.seems to take a couple more tense and then, coming back this way, when

:22:07. > :22:11.Romanchuk is looking away, he catches up a bit. I think he's

:22:12. > :22:17.broken him now. There is now clear water between the feet of Gregorio

:22:18. > :22:21.Paltrinieri, the Olympic and defending world champion, and the

:22:22. > :22:27.hands of Romanchuk. There are two lengths to go, and he has made a

:22:28. > :22:32.very big move. No kick off the wall from Paltrinieri, and Romanchuk have

:22:33. > :22:36.had a decent turn. He's done really well, and he'll smash his personal

:22:37. > :22:39.best, the 20-year-old Ukrainian. He's looked great and definitely a

:22:40. > :22:42.champion in the making for the future. But look at the Olympic

:22:43. > :22:48.champion, Paltrinieri, the Italian. He is relentless. He's had a

:22:49. > :22:52.turnover, his arms have been going that fast since the beginning, and

:22:53. > :22:56.he's broken Romanchuk with 300 ago. They are down to the last legs, and

:22:57. > :23:03.I think this will be the first session of the second fastest time

:23:04. > :23:07.he's done. Romanchuk still in the picture, what a swim! Only seven

:23:08. > :23:13.people in history have gone under 14 minutes 40 seconds for the 1500

:23:14. > :23:15.metres freestyle, and certainly the second fastest in history is

:23:16. > :23:20.Gregorio Paltrinieri, and he's going to successfully defend the world

:23:21. > :23:28.title. What a great swimmer from Romanchuk. Gold on the 1500 metres

:23:29. > :23:32.freestyle, world champion, Gregorio Paltrinieri of Italy, adding gold

:23:33. > :23:37.again at this World Championships to the Olympic title that he won.

:23:38. > :23:41.Silver to Romanchuk of the Ukraine, and a very good bronze indeed for

:23:42. > :23:48.Mack Horton. That will have hurt. The time, 14.35 Romanchuk, 14.37, a

:23:49. > :23:57.brilliant time from the young Ukrainian. He won the silver at the

:23:58. > :24:01.Olympics, and he's got a beautiful stroke, Romanchuk. But look at

:24:02. > :24:07.Paltrinieri. Another gold medal for the Italians. I think that they're

:24:08. > :24:09.third of the week. He was heavily favourite, and he was only four

:24:10. > :24:18.microseconds outside the Olympic record. -- four seconds. I wouldn't

:24:19. > :24:23.put much stock in Horton getting a bronze. He's really pulled it out.

:24:24. > :24:27.Not too many Australian swimmers have impressed me so far this meet,

:24:28. > :24:33.but he had the guts to stand up and do the 1500 metres freestyle after

:24:34. > :24:38.winning silver on the 400. Sung Kang hasn't swung this 1500, he decided

:24:39. > :24:41.not to do it. In the last World Championships, he didn't even turn

:24:42. > :24:47.up for the final and, ever since then, the crowd has been partisan to

:24:48. > :24:51.Paltrinieri. We were set up for a showdown last year and he didn't

:24:52. > :24:56.make the final. I doubt we'll see him in another major gains. 14

:24:57. > :25:00.minutes 30 seconds of tough swimming, and it comes down to a few

:25:01. > :25:06.metres. I take my hat off to these fellows. Great race.

:25:07. > :25:20.Fantastic stuff. Well, his team-mate, Gabriele Detti, won 800

:25:21. > :25:23.freestyle. Now Paltrinieri has one group of 15. A very tight Mack

:25:24. > :25:28.Horton, but he should be delighted with bronze. Probably the best he

:25:29. > :25:31.could have expected. -- a very tired Mack Horton. Romanchuk becomes the

:25:32. > :25:45.fourth fastest in history. He's not the only one who will be

:25:46. > :25:51.delighted. Mickey Adlington, you can get your dancing shoes on, because

:25:52. > :25:57.the Italians have one. The Italian national anthem! I love it. That was

:25:58. > :26:03.just pure class on the last 400 metres by Paltrinieri. There is a

:26:04. > :26:08.huge difference technique. Yes, breaking down every length, Romang

:26:09. > :26:21.chook was taking 13 strokes less than porta Ranieri, which is a lot

:26:22. > :26:26.over the full 1500 metres! I was observing the different techniques.

:26:27. > :26:32.Romang chook is more efficient, but it takes a lot of energy to be that

:26:33. > :26:41.efficient. Paltrinieri obviously spent a lot of time ploughing up and

:26:42. > :26:48.down a pool. He pushes off and doesn't have any streamlined.

:26:49. > :26:52.Whereas Romang chook holds his streamlined. But it takes more

:26:53. > :26:58.energy holding your breath, so there's a lot of different things to

:26:59. > :27:03.look at. When you're technique is so different, it surely affects your

:27:04. > :27:09.prep annual training and everything. Yes, especially when you are doing

:27:10. > :27:13.80,000 metres a week, like these guys are in the pool. Paltrinieri

:27:14. > :27:18.probably thinks that he will never be good at underwater and

:27:19. > :27:23.streamline, so he is trying to use things to his advantage. Next week,

:27:24. > :27:27.the World Athletics Championships takes place in Queen Elizabeth Park

:27:28. > :27:40.in London. Coverage across the BBC. London, are

:27:41. > :27:48.you ready? It's a mammoth jump. Reddy show wins the world title. She

:27:49. > :27:57.has matched the British record. Usain Bolt! I'm ready.

:27:58. > :28:04.If golf is more your thing, you are in luck, because the USA PGA

:28:05. > :28:09.Championship, the fourth major, takes place in Quail Hollow in North

:28:10. > :28:44.Carolina. Jordan Spieth going for the career Grand Slam.

:28:45. > :28:52.Before that, we turn our attention to women's golf and Kingsbarns, just

:28:53. > :28:57.outside St Andrews. We have the women's Open highlights on BBC Two

:28:58. > :29:03.from 5pm on Thursday. I don't know why I struggle to read that, because

:29:04. > :29:06.I can actually read! Anyway, earlier this week, we challenged our

:29:07. > :29:09.colleagues to dust off their swimming costumes and get in the

:29:10. > :29:17.swimming pool. They did us proud. Here's what happened. Becky

:29:18. > :29:21.Adlington, the double Olympic champion and double bronze medallist

:29:22. > :29:29.from London. This is really impressive stuff. I didn't expect

:29:30. > :29:35.this. Is that what we call it when we shall down on buckets of pasta

:29:36. > :29:42.and pizza! Becky Adlington was the first to put her hand up for this

:29:43. > :29:52.race. She was in. I think Perry may be went a little bit early there.

:29:53. > :29:59.He's having a go here. This could well be victory for the BBC. Come

:30:00. > :30:06.on, Stephen Perry. He is catching the Americans in four. He is utterly

:30:07. > :30:12.exhausted! Not a bad effort at all. The Americans win. The Japanese get

:30:13. > :30:18.second. I don't know why they have the Fina guys there. They were

:30:19. > :30:24.nowhere near. The BBC, a very credible third. I feel like the

:30:25. > :30:33.proud mother of a very dysfunctional family! Gin and tonic worked really

:30:34. > :30:39.well, not isotonic drinks! It was key! In our drinks bottles,

:30:40. > :30:43.rehydrate, get another one now. Helen was alluding to the fact that

:30:44. > :30:47.you may have been a little bit worried on that first lap. Once you

:30:48. > :30:53.start to lean, is difficult to get the weight back on to the blocks

:30:54. > :30:56.again. I think I was the only one taking this professionally. These

:30:57. > :31:01.three didn't turn up to the training camp before this event. I know we

:31:02. > :31:07.are a team, that these three were terrible, and they should have taken

:31:08. > :31:12.it more seriously. It is all about marginal gains, and they are a

:31:13. > :31:22.disgrace. I feel very proud of you, team! Well done. You join us as the

:31:23. > :31:25.crowd goes crazy, not for our team, but for Camille Lacourt, world

:31:26. > :31:31.champion in the 60 metre backstroke. Joking aside, do you miss it, when

:31:32. > :31:37.you are back in there? No. Don't get me wrong, it was amazing to swim in

:31:38. > :31:43.this pool, because all week we have been admiring the arena and admiring

:31:44. > :31:50.the pool. We didn't quite have the crowd out there when we were doing a

:31:51. > :31:54.race! That's why I didn't do it! But I've got to admit, your technique

:31:55. > :31:59.looked the best of the lot. I know you have retired the most recently,

:32:00. > :32:03.but you still held the water, and you did yourself proud, and if

:32:04. > :32:11.Britain proud. But Steve Perry as well... A trooper. While we are

:32:12. > :32:18.fleeing him, we have to talk about the takeover. It was very touch and

:32:19. > :32:24.go, wasn't it? You can't judge perfection like that! Touch and go,

:32:25. > :32:29.I think I was Bob on there. I have had a couple of calls from Dressel

:32:30. > :32:35.this week, who has wanted some help with me this week on his takeovers,

:32:36. > :32:38.after seeing that. We have also seen the South African who won the

:32:39. > :32:44.Commonwealth Games on Twitter. Steve, Sharon said, what about if

:32:45. > :32:49.you go early? And you went straight into the attack on the team, about

:32:50. > :32:55.how they didn't turn up. Let's is talk about that takeover because it

:32:56. > :33:01.was a little bit clique... Quick. Will you thinking Dressel? Your feet

:33:02. > :33:07.can actually leave the block before the other person gets in. Me and

:33:08. > :33:14.Becky were totally in tune. Not sure what Mark Foster was on about. He

:33:15. > :33:21.didn't even make the team. We just got narrowly beaten by NBC. We will

:33:22. > :33:26.get them next time. Mark and I were in the Olympic final, and he went

:33:27. > :33:31.miles too early. I think he is scarred for life on that. I think

:33:32. > :33:36.this is the third attempt to get you to talk about the takeover. You have

:33:37. > :33:41.your weight going forward. You have been resting now for 13 years on

:33:42. > :33:48.this, since you got that medal in Athens on the 200 fly. Your momentum

:33:49. > :33:53.was super. When you say wait, are you talking about my relaxed muscle?

:33:54. > :33:58.It was great to be on that medley team, and I'm really looking forward

:33:59. > :34:04.to Great Britain going later. I hope they can get a medal.

:34:05. > :34:09.It was only meant to be a bit of fun, guys. That is what happens when

:34:10. > :34:17.you ask Olympians to take part in a fun race! We have the serious relays

:34:18. > :34:22.tonight. We have Great Britain going in the men's 4x100 relay. Before

:34:23. > :34:32.that, it is the turn of the women. Andy, Steve, back to you.

:34:33. > :34:40.And we have the women's 4x100 metres medley relay, the final race on the

:34:41. > :34:44.women's calendar here in this World Championships in Budapest. The

:34:45. > :34:50.fastest qualifiers are the world record holders, Team USA. Difficult

:34:51. > :34:53.to see past them. The defending champions in lane five, from the

:34:54. > :35:00.People's Republic of China. Team Great Britain, they made this final,

:35:01. > :35:05.just made it in. Great experience for them. Kathleen Dawson will be

:35:06. > :35:15.leading them off, then Sarah Vasey, Charlotte Atkinson and Freya

:35:16. > :35:25.Davidson. A good lane for them, lane eight. Yes, to be out on the side,

:35:26. > :35:29.because in the middle, you can get distracted. This is quite a young

:35:30. > :35:33.team, the first time this quartet has been put together. They start

:35:34. > :35:39.well, it just depends on how we can bring it home. There's the defending

:35:40. > :35:46.champions, from the People's Republic of China. They have had a

:35:47. > :35:52.pretty good meet so far. Team USA, what a meet they have had. Catherine

:35:53. > :36:03.Baker -- Kathleen Baker, and then Lilly King. Gold in the breaststroke

:36:04. > :36:07.and gold in the freestyle, the second and fourth legs. Can't see

:36:08. > :36:14.past them. Would be great to see Kathleen Dawson do well. She will be

:36:15. > :36:22.the closest to us. Nose clip again on the backstroke. First 15

:36:23. > :36:28.underwater. Look at that. Russia, Yuliya Efimova. She goes in the

:36:29. > :36:36.breaststroke leg. I think there's quite a lot of black hats in this

:36:37. > :36:42.race, just to identify. There is Seebohm of Australia, won the gold

:36:43. > :36:48.on the 200. The Australians will be really strong, but I cannot see past

:36:49. > :36:52.the Americans. Every single person on the American team has an

:36:53. > :36:58.individual medal. They finish with the Olympic champion. Britain are

:36:59. > :37:12.closest to us. Right in the centre, Team USA. Next

:37:13. > :37:21.to them in three, Canada. It is very interesting. Kylie mass of Canada,

:37:22. > :37:25.she broke the world record in the individual 100 backstroke, but had

:37:26. > :37:32.probably one of the worst starts. She looked away off, but she has

:37:33. > :37:41.worked her way back into it now. As expected, it is the United States

:37:42. > :37:46.that turn first. On the left-hand side of the screen, Kathleen Dawson

:37:47. > :37:55.has put Great Britain in a good position. As expected, it is America

:37:56. > :38:04.followed by Canada. I would have expected Kylie mass of Canada to be

:38:05. > :38:09.leading after this first legs. 58.3 is quick. Under world-record split

:38:10. > :38:14.for the relay. Just outside the world record time that she set to

:38:15. > :38:25.lead on. Kathleen Dawson's sprint, 50 point two. Well done. Just look

:38:26. > :38:30.at Efimova in the pink hat, very recognisable. Both King and Efimova

:38:31. > :38:37.have been having scraps all week on the 50, 100 and 200. Efimova

:38:38. > :38:42.finished third in the individual 100 metres, and King won. I think

:38:43. > :38:47.Efimova has a point to prepare. She is out splitting king. Remember the

:38:48. > :38:52.battles that Russia and America have had throughout the years. This is

:38:53. > :38:58.great to see. Efimova going ahead of King. She is catching her up. This

:38:59. > :39:12.is fascinating. I didn't expect this. For Russia, it was 58.9 on the

:39:13. > :39:24.back leg. That is a tight takeover from Russia. What a great split that

:39:25. > :39:31.must have been from Efimova. 64.0 she split. She beat King there by

:39:32. > :39:37.half a second. King may have won earlier in the evening, but for the

:39:38. > :39:42.team, it's Efimova who delivered. This is such fast swimming. Half a

:39:43. > :39:48.second on the world record pace. Look at Kelsey Worrell and her wall

:39:49. > :39:53.work. She did exploit the turn. She looks to me she is starting to tire

:39:54. > :39:59.a bit, as is the Russian. A great battle going on for third place

:40:00. > :40:11.between Canada and Australia falls White it is Team USA at

:40:12. > :40:15.the moment, but nowhere near as much as we expected. A good takeover

:40:16. > :40:18.there. The new world champion on the 100m freestyle is Simone Manuel of

:40:19. > :40:25.the USA. She is really streaking down this final 100 metres. Manuel

:40:26. > :40:29.leading for the USA. The rest of the field are absolutely charging,

:40:30. > :40:35.particularly Bronte Campbell of Australia in lane two. The world

:40:36. > :40:40.record could be on here. Set in London in 2012. It has lasted five

:40:41. > :40:48.years. This bronze medal swim here being fought out between the Sweden,

:40:49. > :40:52.Australia and Canada. Can Bronte Campbell hold on? No doubt about the

:40:53. > :41:04.leaders. Will they break the world record? 3.51 .5. A whole half

:41:05. > :41:09.second. Absolutely brilliant for the USA. And a great silver for Russia.

:41:10. > :41:14.They swam out of their skins for that silver, and the bronze was

:41:15. > :41:19.stolen by team Australia in lane two. What a swim from them. Bronte

:41:20. > :41:27.Campbell's last leg must have been superb. She almost matched Manuel

:41:28. > :41:31.there, and brought it home for Australia. I have not seen Manuel

:41:32. > :41:36.smile all week. That is her fourth gold medal on the relays, but she

:41:37. > :41:41.has finally cracked one there. She is happy. What an ambassador for the

:41:42. > :41:47.sport she is going to be. USA so tough to beat.

:41:48. > :42:00.Interesting nails. Kathleen Baker, a good crack the first 100, 58.5, is

:42:01. > :42:04.very good swim from her. She was the silver-medallist on the individual

:42:05. > :42:10.100 backstroke, and then Kings didn't have the best length. No,

:42:11. > :42:14.she's good individually, but she has gone slower with the team and she

:42:15. > :42:16.did in an individual race. If you want somebody on the back, that's

:42:17. > :42:23.the lady, Simone Mani well. Straight arms, a bit unconventional. --

:42:24. > :42:27.Simone Manuel. Training at Stanford University. The feeling you get when

:42:28. > :42:37.you touch the wall must be brilliant and, whom! Hello, King. She's happy.

:42:38. > :42:41.And so is she, Simone Manuel saying that team USA has broken the world

:42:42. > :42:48.record in the final women's race, the women's 4x100 medley relay, and

:42:49. > :42:53.Kathleen Baker leading off with a time faster than the individual,

:42:54. > :43:01.getting the silver. Team USA winning the final women's race.

:43:02. > :43:07.Congratulations, because the plan behind this, is almost a bunch of

:43:08. > :43:14.rookies, was to get into the final and get some experience, wasn't it?

:43:15. > :43:19.It's great to be getting a world-record winning race. It's been

:43:20. > :43:25.amazing. You have a couple of your own finals as well. You must be

:43:26. > :43:28.pleased with your consistency. To do it with these girls, it's a really

:43:29. > :43:35.good feeling. How much have you enjoyed this event? The atmosphere

:43:36. > :43:43.has been unbelievable. For our first worlds, we've done really well and

:43:44. > :43:49.learned so much. Some fantastic sub 54s. A lot more training to come for

:43:50. > :43:52.you guys. Definitely, I've gained a lot of confidence here, and I've got

:43:53. > :44:01.the world Juniors, so pretty confident moving into that. Good to

:44:02. > :44:04.see you in there. Well done. Kathleen Dawson, Sarah Vasey,

:44:05. > :44:07.Charlotte Atkinson, Freya Anderson, all in their first World

:44:08. > :44:13.Championships, flying the flag for Britain. How important is this

:44:14. > :44:16.experience? For somebody like Freya Anderson, going into the world

:44:17. > :44:23.juniors this month, it's great experience. A fantastic meet getting

:44:24. > :44:28.those under her belt. That will help the Tokyo as well. To be part of

:44:29. > :44:36.that world-record swim, it's part of history. Another relay gold for

:44:37. > :44:41.America, another record. On paper, they were down to win. Kind of

:44:42. > :44:46.surprised that Russia pushed them for so long in the race, but yeah,

:44:47. > :44:51.USA have a dominance, and there's a reason for it, and that's down to

:44:52. > :44:53.the programmes that they have, the collegiate system based around

:44:54. > :44:58.sprinting, and you see it in the turns and the diving. They are so

:44:59. > :45:01.much better at those simple skills than the rest of the world, and

:45:02. > :45:06.that's something everybody should look at. It's easy to practice. As

:45:07. > :45:10.Becky said, our girls did great, and it's a really young team. They

:45:11. > :45:15.almost looked like Australians, because they are long at all.

:45:16. > :45:20.They've got something. Good opportunity for the British girls to

:45:21. > :45:26.race alongside world champions. Part of this hole is going crazy because

:45:27. > :45:32.we are getting ready for the medal ceremony for the women's 400 I am.

:45:33. > :45:35.That place set this place alight earlier, and it was home favourite

:45:36. > :45:42.Katinka Hosszu who took her second gold of the week. You can see her

:45:43. > :45:47.husband, Shane, very excited. Kind of an aggressive excitement, isn't

:45:48. > :45:54.it? A little bit! After her victory, Katinka Hosszu spoke to Sharon.

:45:55. > :46:00.Still waving to the crowd. More my husband actually! You have a tight

:46:01. > :46:06.team and you do things differently from a lot of other swimmers, but it

:46:07. > :46:11.seems to work. We work a lot. This is our passion, our lies. It's

:46:12. > :46:20.amazing for me that I'm able to enjoy these moments with him. --

:46:21. > :46:24.this is our passion, our lifes. He knows what I had to go through to

:46:25. > :46:29.get here. Is crowd can't help but drive you down the swimming pool.

:46:30. > :46:34.Honestly, the first morning, it was a bit scary. I don't think that we

:46:35. > :46:38.swimmers have experienced such a loud crack before. But the last

:46:39. > :46:44.length, it definitely helped me on the finish. Will you maintain your

:46:45. > :46:51.busy programme towards Tokyo? Definitely, I'm going to Moscow

:46:52. > :46:57.tomorrow morning to train. And Katinka Hosszu just being introduced

:46:58. > :47:05.to the crowd to pick up her second gold medal of these 20 17th World

:47:06. > :47:09.Swimming Championships. She won gold on the 200 metres individual medley,

:47:10. > :47:16.and she's backed it up with her fourth title in the 400 medley. She

:47:17. > :47:23.won gold in 2009, 2013 and 2015, and now here, the first woman ever to

:47:24. > :47:26.win this title in her home country. And what a brilliant swim it was.

:47:27. > :47:33.Right from the start, a massive attack. The gold to Hosszu, the

:47:34. > :47:40.silver to Mariah Belmonte, after a wonderful gold on the and Sydney

:47:41. > :47:46.Pickrem, after a shocker on the 200 medal, -- 200 medley, getting

:47:47. > :47:50.bronze. After such a disaster on 200 I am, it's great to see her get back

:47:51. > :48:02.in and get a medal. -- on the 200 individual medley.

:48:03. > :49:04.CHEERING I've never heard a loud crowd,

:49:05. > :49:09.saluting Katinka Hosszu, her fourth title in this women's 400 medley,

:49:10. > :49:15.and what a haul of medals she said this week, now an two golds in the

:49:16. > :49:17.200 and 400 medley, to act to silver and bronze. What a week she said! --

:49:18. > :50:01.to add to. So Adam Peaty will be the second leg

:50:02. > :50:07.swimmer in the men's medley relay. The crowd has gone crazy for Katinka

:50:08. > :50:11.Hosszu, they love racing, but they have been getting up in these relays

:50:12. > :50:19.as well. What can we expect from the crowd and cowboys? The relays are so

:50:20. > :50:23.exciting to watch. -- and our boys. If we can get our relay takeover is

:50:24. > :50:26.right, because the Americans are very good at relay they get them

:50:27. > :50:32.very tight... They've got Caeleb Dressel in there, but we've got

:50:33. > :50:37.James Guy and Adam Peaty, come on! Is exciting at the moment. We saw

:50:38. > :50:44.this team get silver at the Olympic Games and, for us,... I can't hear

:50:45. > :50:49.you! To be in there in the mix in the relays, and the last time we won

:50:50. > :50:53.a medal at the Olympics was 1984, that's how long, to have that

:50:54. > :50:58.strength and depth in the men's relay is really exciting. We have

:50:59. > :51:06.seen Chris Walker-Hebborn all week. Half a second from him. Peaty should

:51:07. > :51:08.put us back on terms with the Americans, hopefully, and James Guy

:51:09. > :51:13.can do anything. He's against Caeleb Dressel. And we've got a great

:51:14. > :51:19.anchor leg as well with Duncan Scott. When I spoke to Adam earlier

:51:20. > :51:24.in the week, he said it would take at least 56.5 from him, so he knows

:51:25. > :51:28.what he's got to do. Chris Walker-Hebborn has been a bit ill.

:51:29. > :51:31.We know he's had a viral infection, that's why he's been arrested. They

:51:32. > :51:35.made the right decision, trying to get it right for the relay. -- he

:51:36. > :51:42.has been rested. Hopefully Chris has another big swim in him.

:51:43. > :51:46.Part of the reason that you did that, oh, we've got Adam Peaty and

:51:47. > :51:49.James Guy is because they love this atmosphere at this crowd, and they

:51:50. > :51:54.are confident. Surely that will fire up Chris Walker-Hebborn. Yes, we

:51:55. > :52:00.have swimmers that the rest of the world are worried about. Chris has

:52:01. > :52:06.been 52.8, which is an awesome time. He's just not on that kind of form

:52:07. > :52:08.at the moment. But with those guys, with adrenaline tonight, he's been

:52:09. > :52:13.there before and done it, so hopefully he can get down near his

:52:14. > :52:19.best. If he does, we could really frighten the Americans, which I've

:52:20. > :52:22.never said before. Tonight, it's Chris Walker-Hebborn, Adam Peaty,

:52:23. > :52:26.James Guy and hopefully finishing it off in style Duncan Scott. For the

:52:27. > :52:28.final event on the final day of the World Swimming Championships, let me

:52:29. > :52:40.hand you over to Andy and Steve. Team USA starting as favourites,

:52:41. > :52:49.massive favourites for this final final, the men's 4x100 medley relay.

:52:50. > :52:55.Great Britain insects. They've got a decent chance certainly of a medal,

:52:56. > :52:59.-- Great Britain in six. Could they pushed the Americans for gold? A

:53:00. > :53:05.massive roar you can hear 4-team Hungary. They are next to the Brits

:53:06. > :53:13.in seven. The Brazilians have had a good week so far, very good. Mostly

:53:14. > :53:18.on street 50s. They have done well on the butterfly and freestyle. What

:53:19. > :53:22.can team Great Britain do? Chris Walker-Hebborn has been pretty ill,

:53:23. > :53:27.so he isn't on his usual form but he can certainly give us a decent

:53:28. > :53:31.start, because then we got our gold-medallist superstar Adam Peaty

:53:32. > :53:34.on the breaststroke. James Guy, a brilliant bronze on the fly, and

:53:35. > :53:43.what can Duncan in the final leg? Villa it's a great team, it's a

:53:44. > :53:47.great team. I think America will be strong. Great Britain, Olympic

:53:48. > :53:51.medallist last year, they should be in the mix, but Japan, Brazil,

:53:52. > :53:56.Russia China, I think they are all within a segment of us. I am super

:53:57. > :54:01.nervous. -- all within a second of us. You want these guys to do it so

:54:02. > :54:05.much. Chris Walker-Hebborn is the X factor. We haven't seen much of him

:54:06. > :54:12.this week. He went 54 low this morning. We would be in with a great

:54:13. > :54:15.shout if you could do that. They are a scary team, just look at that. On

:54:16. > :54:22.the right-hand side of that shot was the enormous six foot seven and

:54:23. > :54:27.three quarters that is Matt Grevers. Silver-medallist on the 100

:54:28. > :54:35.backstroke, beating the Olympic and world record-holder Ryan Murphy into

:54:36. > :54:37.bronze. There he is, six foot seven and three quarters, he is, he's

:54:38. > :54:44.huge! What a start they've got. Their second leg is Kevin Cordes. He

:54:45. > :54:49.got silver on the individual breaststroke to Great Britain's Adam

:54:50. > :54:53.Peaty, and then the flyer, Caeleb Dressel, 49 seconds for 100 fly.

:54:54. > :54:57.That's ridiculous. It seems like a freestyle time. Chris

:54:58. > :55:02.Walker-Hebborn, tattooed. We need him on this relay. He's had a

:55:03. > :55:10.challenging year, and fair play to him. Not for the team, trying to do

:55:11. > :55:12.the job. The champion on the 100 stroke, and the People's Republic of

:55:13. > :55:18.China in lane one. I think the action will be between one and six,

:55:19. > :55:23.and I don't know if that works in Great Britain's Weber being on the

:55:24. > :55:28.outside, or if they'd prefer to be in the middle. -- in Great Britain's

:55:29. > :55:36.Weber. It might do us a favour to be in lane six. I'm certainly happy we

:55:37. > :55:39.are not next to team USA. I've had that experience when they go

:55:40. > :55:43.rocketing off, and it's very unpleasant. It's like swimming

:55:44. > :55:53.behind a pleasure boat. The final final, the men's 4x100 medley relay.

:55:54. > :55:55.But Britain in lane six. What can Chris Walker-Hebborn Dougal Great

:55:56. > :56:00.Britain on the lead-off leg? The winner of the individual 100 metres

:56:01. > :56:07.backstroke is on the left, the yellow hat of China, and he could

:56:08. > :56:10.break the world record on this individual back. It's helped by Ryan

:56:11. > :56:17.Murphy, who the bronze here. We'll have to watch them carefully. Chris

:56:18. > :56:20.Walker-Hebborn, we don't want to see him losing touch with these guys.

:56:21. > :56:25.They are taking it out fast. Only a tenth of a second off world-record

:56:26. > :56:30.pace. The mountain of a man in the middle, he's taken it on. The

:56:31. > :56:34.Chinese swimmer slowing it down, but look at Chris Walker-Hebborn. Let's

:56:35. > :56:38.get in. He's got to get it in this last 50 metres. The last bit will

:56:39. > :56:47.hurt. In the middle, Matt Grevers holding well. 52.20 two. Well, that

:56:48. > :56:51.would have won him the gold medal on the individual. He only got silver,

:56:52. > :56:56.and Chris Walker-Hebborn 54.2, pretty much the same as on the heat.

:56:57. > :57:00.The black cat on the left side is Adam Peaty, eating these guys up

:57:01. > :57:06.there on the first 50 in the breaststroke. But all of these are

:57:07. > :57:14.no statues. But look at the beast Adam Peaty determining it on. --

:57:15. > :57:17.they are no slackers. The United States on world-record pace. Let's

:57:18. > :57:23.see the magic down the last 30 metres.

:57:24. > :57:29.He really is catching up every single stroke. On the 100 metres,

:57:30. > :57:34.this is where he took off. Look at what he is doing to the best

:57:35. > :57:40.breaststroke is in the world. Can you believe he is taking the lead?

:57:41. > :57:45.He has taken the silver medallist, Cordes, and made him look like an

:57:46. > :57:53.amateur. A very tight takeover, but I think it was good. Up against the

:57:54. > :57:59.gold medallist from the USA. A lot of work to do here for Great

:58:00. > :58:07.Britain. An amazing takeover from dress soul. Adam Peaty phenomenally

:58:08. > :58:13.fast on that breaststroke leg. Come on, James Guy. If he can turn it on

:58:14. > :58:21.down this second 15 hour, I think the US are gone. Still four teams in

:58:22. > :58:26.it for this silver medal. Caleb Dressel looking really good. His

:58:27. > :58:33.last 50 is always really strong. James Guy also looking really good.

:58:34. > :58:37.Handing over to Duncan Scott. The takeover is fine for Great Britain.

:58:38. > :58:44.We are in second place at the moment, ahead of the Japanese.

:58:45. > :58:51.Duncan Scott in second. Chasing very hard is the Japanese. Team USA, in

:58:52. > :58:55.the shape of the bronze medallist in the 100m freestyle, going really

:58:56. > :59:01.well. But the rest of the world starting to catch up. A proper wagon

:59:02. > :59:10.race going on for second and third. Hopefully Duncan Scott can hold on.

:59:11. > :59:15.The Russian in three. Duncan Scott being caught up. The gold medal

:59:16. > :59:22.definitely going to the USA. I think it's going to be just outside world

:59:23. > :59:27.record pace. Gold for USA, a wonderful silver medal for Great

:59:28. > :59:31.Britain. Well done, guys. Duncan Scott bringing the guys home in

:59:32. > :59:37.fantastic fashion for the silver. Bronze goes to Russia.

:59:38. > :59:43.Walker-Hebborn has been very ill, and he started them off in a solid

:59:44. > :59:47.fashion. James Guy did a super job on the fly, and then Duncan Scott

:59:48. > :59:53.bringing Great Britain home to a fabulous silver medal on the final

:59:54. > :59:58.race of these World Championships. Wow! Great Britain to be within one

:59:59. > :00:03.second of this great American team, when they've got one guy who hasn't

:00:04. > :00:13.been well coming into the meet, is simply brilliant. 47.0 seconds for

:00:14. > :00:17.Duncan Scott on that final leg, matching the American swimmer. It

:00:18. > :00:24.was brilliant to see. They all stepped up and delivered as a team.

:00:25. > :00:31.Look at this. Really powerful on that breaststroke leg. Peaty

:00:32. > :00:39.destroyed them all, didn't he? 58.8 on the breaststroke for the

:00:40. > :00:45.Americans. Peaty's 56 point nine. For 100 metres breaststroke. Then

:00:46. > :00:51.the Russians were charging on the right-hand side, but no doubt, in

:00:52. > :00:59.the end. It was comfortable, wasn't it? It didn't feel comfortable

:01:00. > :01:04.sitting here. Team GB now talking to Sharon poolside. Everybody wants to

:01:05. > :01:14.know what splits they did. They were awesome. 47 flat from you. And 56.9,

:01:15. > :01:20.oh my goodness. That was so much pressure on a poorly person! I put

:01:21. > :01:25.so much effort into that. Having these boys on the backend, I'm

:01:26. > :01:29.grateful and I'm lucky to be part of this team. Just lucky I made it to

:01:30. > :01:34.the end of the week and got to swim with them. The Americans swum so

:01:35. > :01:43.fast. It really is on for three years' time. Such a small team

:01:44. > :01:49.coming through. What can I say? Duncan, how has your week been? It

:01:50. > :01:54.has been incredible. At the start was individuals, and then it just

:01:55. > :02:00.kept getting better and better. I've finished on a high with relays. Each

:02:01. > :02:05.team I have been on has been great. No better feeling than standing on

:02:06. > :02:10.the podium with these guys. Very well done, everybody. Fantastic way

:02:11. > :02:19.to finish. Don't worry, we will talk to you in a minute. What a week it

:02:20. > :02:25.has been for that man Adam Peaty! World champion. Two very special

:02:26. > :02:31.words. Two words every athlete strives to hear after their name. A

:02:32. > :02:37.lifetime of relentless training to win that title. Very few make it,

:02:38. > :02:43.but every now and then, someone very special comes along. Someone who

:02:44. > :02:46.pushes harder, breaks new ground. At 20, Adam Peaty became a world

:02:47. > :02:52.champion. COMMENTATOR: It looks like it might

:02:53. > :02:59.be Peaty! He's got it on the last stroke! Foremost, that is the dream,

:03:00. > :03:08.goal achieved. Adam Peaty is not like most. He took it in his stride.

:03:09. > :03:12.One enough. That was just the beginning.

:03:13. > :03:20.COMMENTATOR: Peaty has his second gold of this World Championships.

:03:21. > :03:25.Double world champion at just 20 years old. Adam Peaty takes Olympic

:03:26. > :03:30.gold for Great Britain. Fast forward to Budapest, a city rich with

:03:31. > :03:35.history. Peaty arrives looking to make a bit of his own. Adam Peaty

:03:36. > :03:41.has destroyed the best in the world. Obliterated them. He is an absolute

:03:42. > :03:46.beast. World title number three. The best in the world by some distance.

:03:47. > :03:53.Distance and time. Not just the best in the world now, but the West in

:03:54. > :04:00.the world ever. There goes Project 20 five. That is phenomenal! Utter

:04:01. > :04:11.dominance. Like a lion hunting its prey. Peaty is relentless. Onto the

:04:12. > :04:15.next one, and history beckons. COMMENTATOR: This is absolutely

:04:16. > :04:21.brilliant breaststroke swimming. He's done the double-double. World

:04:22. > :04:29.champion, two very special words. The double-double, and outstanding

:04:30. > :04:33.achievement. Adam Peaty, just one quarter of that medal relay team,

:04:34. > :04:39.which has just taken a silver medal. Your reaction to that? Absolutely

:04:40. > :04:45.incredible. It was always going to be really tough against the US, but

:04:46. > :04:47.credit to the guys. And Chris Walker-Hebborn has been really ill.

:04:48. > :04:55.They were all around their best times, so faith... Fair play to

:04:56. > :05:01.them. Credit to the team, the fact that Chris has been off. He stepped

:05:02. > :05:06.up and did a job. We know and he knows he's got a lot more to come if

:05:07. > :05:10.he is on form. I don't think the states have ever lost that relay, so

:05:11. > :05:20.that is how good those guys are. They will in Tokyo! Howard does it

:05:21. > :05:24.compare? Is it a bit less pressure, more fun? No, it is more pressure

:05:25. > :05:30.because you will let your team down. If you lose your race, it's just you

:05:31. > :05:35.who is disappointed. You do not want to let your team down, so these boys

:05:36. > :05:42.get up and do absolutely everything. Every single last % possible. I have

:05:43. > :05:48.been in several relays in the past, where the individual that became

:05:49. > :05:54.Olympic champion, when they came to the relay they were a second slower

:05:55. > :05:58.than in the individual. Some people rise to the occasion, some don't. It

:05:59. > :06:05.is about the rest of the team, and you can try too hard. These guys,

:06:06. > :06:10.and especially James Guy, it gives him an extra edge. He just doesn't

:06:11. > :06:14.want to let anyone down. One guy who has delivered plenty this week is

:06:15. > :06:19.Adam Peaty. He's joining us now. Thank you for joining us, because I

:06:20. > :06:23.know you're about to get your silver medal for the relay. Talk to us

:06:24. > :06:26.about the last few days. How difficult is it knowing you've got

:06:27. > :06:31.to get back in the pool, because you love racing? It's always difficult

:06:32. > :06:36.getting back in the pool, but you have to get your head in the game.

:06:37. > :06:41.Tonight, not for myself, but for the team. In three years' time, I hope

:06:42. > :06:48.we will get stronger and stronger. We are a young team, and I hope we

:06:49. > :06:52.can get stronger every year. Adam, I want to know what the biggest thing

:06:53. > :06:57.is you are taking away from this week of racing? I'm not sure yet. It

:06:58. > :07:03.takes a few weeks to get used to it again and see what I've done here. I

:07:04. > :07:08.won't know until December. I will look back with Mel and see where we

:07:09. > :07:15.want to go this year. All it is now is Project 56, and how we are going

:07:16. > :07:22.to get there. But surely now is the time to celebrate. Show us your

:07:23. > :07:27.medals! These are the bad boys. They are not bad. Adam, it has been a

:07:28. > :07:32.pleasure watching you. We honestly love it. Where do you go from here?

:07:33. > :07:37.Where are you going to work on, because you have just rewritten the

:07:38. > :07:42.history books. I am having trouble hearing because the crowd is quite

:07:43. > :07:48.loud. When you go back from here, where'd you work on? Where you

:07:49. > :07:56.improve? I don't believe that no one has anywhere to work on. That's 10%

:07:57. > :08:01.now is where I am going to pick up the amazing time I need. I'm going

:08:02. > :08:08.to be even more motivated. I have already picked up 0.3, so it's

:08:09. > :08:13.looking very good, and the curve of progression is very good. I'm still

:08:14. > :08:20.young, 22, and I am up against guys who are 28, 30. They are on

:08:21. > :08:26.manpower, and I am still on boy power at the moment. I hope to get

:08:27. > :08:30.up there. There's plenty of boy power to be joining us in the

:08:31. > :08:34.studio. We are going to be celebrating some of Britain's's

:08:35. > :08:43.medallist in a few minutes' time. Let's relive what happened in the

:08:44. > :08:47.men's 4x400 relay earlier this week. COMMENTATOR: These guys have a

:08:48. > :08:52.chance of retaining this title, but it's not going to be easy at all.

:08:53. > :08:59.Great Britain, leading off with Steven Milne. The USA going off very

:09:00. > :09:05.quick. They are trying to steal this one early. Russia first, Great

:09:06. > :09:11.Britain in fifth. We need to back into this race. We can't let too

:09:12. > :09:18.much of a lead go here, because Team USA looking very good. USA one,

:09:19. > :09:23.Russia and two, and a very tight takeover from Great Britain. Scott

:09:24. > :09:31.starting to charge. He has some work to do. He's doing a great job. Look

:09:32. > :09:36.at him coming back here. The final leg of the 4x200 metres relay. This

:09:37. > :09:40.is where you have to dig deep. This is where it starts to hurt. It's not

:09:41. > :09:48.about physical ability, it's about heart. Look at the job James Guy is

:09:49. > :09:55.doing on the American. They are the men's world champions. What a

:09:56. > :09:59.brilliant swim! You might notice that two members of

:10:00. > :10:04.that world title winning team are not with us, because they are poised

:10:05. > :10:09.to getting up onto the podium again, having won silver at a few moments

:10:10. > :10:14.ago. Talk us through this celebration, the wobbly walk. How

:10:15. > :10:21.much fun was that? Absolutely amazing. I'm still on cloud nine. I

:10:22. > :10:24.can't believe it's all happened. Me and James were just walking across

:10:25. > :10:28.to all the cameras and stuff. He just nudged me like this and he

:10:29. > :10:33.starts going like that, so I've got to join in and give something to the

:10:34. > :10:39.crowd. It's James Guy all over, leading everybody astray. You swam

:10:40. > :10:47.in the morning. How good is it to be back on the team where you should

:10:48. > :10:51.be? It's absolutely great being back on the team. Missed out last year

:10:52. > :10:57.due to illness, but I've been back here racing in Budapest, and it's

:10:58. > :11:01.been amazing. Stephen, I had never seen a human more mortified to put

:11:02. > :11:07.on make-up. I watched you over there as my colleague tried to powder you

:11:08. > :11:12.down. That is what happens! It is the first time for me! Let's talk

:11:13. > :11:18.you through the reaction there. Duncan looked like he was going to

:11:19. > :11:25.have kittens. How much of a surprise was that victory? We were here to do

:11:26. > :11:30.the best we could, and we came and defended the title, which was the

:11:31. > :11:35.goal. It was unbelievable. As soon as it's finished, we were like, we

:11:36. > :11:39.don't need to worry any more. We worked out that there are six or

:11:40. > :11:43.seven boys in the UK at the minute you could be part of the relay team.

:11:44. > :11:51.Do you get territorial, or is it amazing to have strength and depth?

:11:52. > :11:56.Getting into that final is hard enough in the British championships

:11:57. > :11:59.and, on top of that, you've got to come in the top four or five. The

:12:00. > :12:05.calibre you are swimming against is amazing. To be ranked within the top

:12:06. > :12:11.of that, to come here and swim in an amazing pool alongside guys who are

:12:12. > :12:14.just as fast, it's amazing. You alluded on the day that you were

:12:15. > :12:21.in:'s shoes last time. You've swapped. Exactly, I knew how he felt

:12:22. > :12:26.the other day. It's tough to watch that swim from the stands, but, at

:12:27. > :12:29.the end of the day, he is as much a world champion as we are. We

:12:30. > :12:34.couldn't have done it without him. ... We've just seen the guys doing a

:12:35. > :12:40.silver medal in the medley race. What are you thinking? Just cheering

:12:41. > :12:43.as hard as I could. It was great to see, because they've done well in

:12:44. > :12:48.the past year as well. To come away with a silver, they'll be pleased

:12:49. > :12:52.with that, but hopefully they'll be more to come in the near future. We

:12:53. > :13:00.need to see these medals. They are amazing. We talked so much this week

:13:01. > :13:03.about the atmosphere, and it's almost ironic that we are asking you

:13:04. > :13:11.this and you probably can't hear me. How much do you guys feed of this?

:13:12. > :13:14.Is a great buzz to walk out and hear everybody screaming. It's great to

:13:15. > :13:20.go into the water, a lots of people stamping ground will stop not just

:13:21. > :13:21.successful you guys, the British boys have done us proud this week.

:13:22. > :13:33.Let's talk about Ben Proud. In Budapest this week, all the talk

:13:34. > :13:37.has been about Adam Peaty. What he has done this week has been

:13:38. > :13:40.phenomenal, ground-breaking. He's done the double double. But cast

:13:41. > :13:46.your mind back for a second to Monday night. Just minutes after

:13:47. > :13:50.Adam Peaty stepped out of the pool, another Briton was stepping on the

:13:51. > :13:55.blogs. This was Ben Proud's third world champions and he was leaving

:13:56. > :14:03.nothing in the tank. Blink and you might have missed him. I think he's

:14:04. > :14:06.got the finish. These won the World Championship! The 50 metres

:14:07. > :14:14.butterfly may be a non-Olympic event but taking gold by .0 four of a

:14:15. > :14:20.second to Brazil was amazing. In a stacked field including Olympic

:14:21. > :14:21.100-metre butterfly champion just installing and American

:14:22. > :14:28.record-holder Caeleb Dressel, this was a signal of intent. Then's

:14:29. > :14:36.surprise was obvious. This has been his dream since he was a boy. And I

:14:37. > :14:39.remember that dream. Was it inspired by his team-mate, his friend? Almost

:14:40. > :14:43.certainly. Ben Proud has had a talent for a long time, but how many

:14:44. > :14:52.hundreds of a second is believed working for? 004 of a second,

:14:53. > :14:58.almost. He'll take that. 0.04 of a second. He is a world champion now,

:14:59. > :15:09.so I ask you again, how much is believed worth? -- belief worth.

:15:10. > :15:14.What a week it has been for Ben Proud. He's joining us in the

:15:15. > :15:18.studio. We can see him there taking his world title earlier in the week

:15:19. > :15:24.in the 50-metre fly. Later in the week, he added to that a bronze

:15:25. > :15:27.medal, courtesy of the 50 metres freestyle final. I'm delighted he

:15:28. > :15:33.can talk to us now because we've been saying all week, we believe in

:15:34. > :15:38.you, Ben. Now you see yourself on top of the podium, that's your

:15:39. > :15:43.rightful place. Do you believe so? It's hard to believe it's happened.

:15:44. > :15:47.Six years in the making and it's finally falling into place. I've not

:15:48. > :15:50.had time to think about it so now that I've finished racing I can take

:15:51. > :15:56.a few days to reflect on the last week. I guess you haven't had time

:15:57. > :16:02.to celebrate because, after taking the gold, you had to get back in the

:16:03. > :16:06.pool work on the freestyle. How hard are those few days? It's about

:16:07. > :16:09.trying to get back to normal. After winning gold, I had a few hours to

:16:10. > :16:14.reflect and I needed a good nights sleep to get physically ready for

:16:15. > :16:19.that 50 freestyle. It was a bit difficult, I'm not going to lie. You

:16:20. > :16:22.only become the first world champion once in your life, so I just wanted

:16:23. > :16:28.to soak it all in. I feel like I dealt with it quite well. I do

:16:29. > :16:31.think, if it was the other way round, the 50 freestyle first, the

:16:32. > :16:34.results could have been different. But I'm not going to change a thing.

:16:35. > :16:41.I'm happy with the way things have gone. Do you put more pressure on

:16:42. > :16:46.one than the other? The 50 free meant more because it was Olympic,

:16:47. > :16:51.for me, but how do you feel? 50 freestyle, I'm happy to be on the

:16:52. > :16:58.podium, and the 50 fly for me is more personal. Two different medals,

:16:59. > :17:01.very special in different ways. 50 freestyle is one I'm going to build

:17:02. > :17:07.an hopefully in the next three years, taking it to Tokyo. Let's

:17:08. > :17:13.have a look back at that race. Have you reviewed it? I have. The fly for

:17:14. > :17:19.me was almost perfect. Not much I would have changed. When I think

:17:20. > :17:22.about the back of the race, I handled myself quite well, compared

:17:23. > :17:30.to what I've done in the past. So it gives me a bit of confidence when I

:17:31. > :17:36.see that. A little bit! That's the bit that, for me, was the perfect

:17:37. > :17:39.race. You nailed every element. Realistically there were five guys

:17:40. > :17:44.in that race and could have got their hands on the wall. Before,

:17:45. > :17:50.when I got on the block, that kept me in tune and put me in a place

:17:51. > :17:54.where I could get there first. I used to love this bit. In the

:17:55. > :18:00.quorum, because we don't see it, the bit before and, is Caeleb Dressel a

:18:01. > :18:06.bit of an ego? What's going on? Is the first time I'd faced the

:18:07. > :18:09.Americans, so I saw them in the quorum for the first time, but

:18:10. > :18:14.everybody else I know quite well through racing in the past. As the

:18:15. > :18:17.50 goes, it was probably the funniest quorum you'll see.

:18:18. > :18:20.Everybody was chatting. Everybody got into their own zones before we

:18:21. > :18:28.went out. I listened to some music. No words, no negative, no

:18:29. > :18:34.negativity. Very different boxing then! Ben huge congratulations. Your

:18:35. > :18:39.mother and brother are out here celebrating, and they had a great

:18:40. > :18:42.time. Enjoy the opportunity to relax and celebrate, and look at the medal

:18:43. > :18:50.table, because Britain sit proudly very close to the USA, courtesy of

:18:51. > :18:57.Ben, Adam and the relay boys. Seven medals for GB. Granted, quite a way

:18:58. > :19:04.off team USA, but we are a smaller country. Four golds in total, one

:19:05. > :19:08.silver tonight in the relay, and the two bronzes which we had last night.

:19:09. > :19:12.We'll talk a bit more about the relay and will see the boys on the

:19:13. > :19:17.podium in a minute but, guys, the final hour of the World

:19:18. > :19:22.Championships, how proud does that make it? Immensely. The guys have

:19:23. > :19:27.had a great week. We spoke about Rio, and Max Litchfield was so

:19:28. > :19:30.close, so it will be great to see that table changed over the next

:19:31. > :19:33.couple of years, and I think we're going to have a better Olympics in

:19:34. > :19:41.Tokyo than in Rio. Will furnace came up for you at the start of the

:19:42. > :19:46.weekend he was measured, in traditional bill furnace style.

:19:47. > :19:52.That's all he does! Stop it! How happy are you with this week? I'm

:19:53. > :19:58.really pleased. Seven medals and second on the medal table. If you go

:19:59. > :20:02.back four years to when we were in Barcelona, first year of the quad,

:20:03. > :20:06.we got one medal on the last day. Second on the medal table, does it

:20:07. > :20:11.mean we are the second best country in the world? Probably not, but it

:20:12. > :20:14.means we've got a great launching pad to prepare for Tokyo. Obviously

:20:15. > :20:20.there have been quite a lot of rookies on the team. You mentioned

:20:21. > :20:25.that on the first day. I think third of the team are rookies. How do you

:20:26. > :20:30.assess how their week has gone and move forward? It's actually 45% of

:20:31. > :20:33.the team that are rookies. It's been a difficult week, a challenging week

:20:34. > :20:36.for them, that's why we brought them. Some of those rookies are wild

:20:37. > :20:43.cards, because we want them to experience the arena and this sort

:20:44. > :20:45.of pressure. Generally, they've stood up really well. Some of them

:20:46. > :20:52.have gone straight through to finals. Once they get in finals,

:20:53. > :20:54.it's tough for these guys against world-class swimmers. But I'm

:20:55. > :21:01.encouraged by how the rookies have gone. Our more experienced swimmers,

:21:02. > :21:10.our seasoned best, our personal best rate is about 75%, and even in Rio

:21:11. > :21:16.we never got to that sort of figure. We've been blown away with how

:21:17. > :21:19.grown-up and mature some of those swimmers have gone especially some

:21:20. > :21:24.of the younger swimmers. What do you do for the next year, just carry on,

:21:25. > :21:28.do something differently? I think we'll look at our results, analyse

:21:29. > :21:34.our strengths and weaknesses, and will say, OK, thinking of Tokyo,

:21:35. > :21:38.what do we need to improve on? We'll have a big debrief after this, a

:21:39. > :21:43.couple of days, analysing everything we've done, and we'll look at the

:21:44. > :21:47.areas we can move to get the weaknesses improved and to get these

:21:48. > :21:49.swimmers towards the podium. Some swimmers who will be in Tokyo

:21:50. > :21:54.probably aren't even on the team yet, so that's why I'm saying it's

:21:55. > :22:00.pretty measured, its year one, and as a trampoline to the years, there

:22:01. > :22:06.is lots of encouragement for me to take from this meet. I know we have

:22:07. > :22:11.pulled Bill Furniss's leg about those measured celebrations, but

:22:12. > :22:14.surely tonight you guys can go out and celebrate and sing and dance and

:22:15. > :22:17.do whatever you want, because you have certainly deserved it. Thank

:22:18. > :22:25.you for talking cars. I think Chris spice was doing this. He was doing

:22:26. > :22:29.this! I don't know what that means. I guess it's a fine line, because

:22:30. > :22:32.you want to celebrate, but you don't want them to get carried away,

:22:33. > :22:37.because they can't afford to take too much time off, no time for rest.

:22:38. > :22:43.It's tough for the guys, because everybody finishes at different

:22:44. > :22:46.times, and with the Commonwealth Games everybody separates, with

:22:47. > :22:50.England, Scotland and Wales, so next year in Australia will be a great

:22:51. > :22:54.meet, and then the Europeans back in Glasgow and all of these guys will

:22:55. > :22:58.want to get up for that and get performing back at their best to get

:22:59. > :23:01.on the podium. Obviously, it has been swimming all week, but on super

:23:02. > :23:07.Saturday, you can relive and enjoy and celebrate. They are talking to a

:23:08. > :23:16.living legend Michael Johnson. That is tonight on BBC One at 10:30pm.

:23:17. > :23:20.Tomorrow from 11am, the triathlon is on. You can enjoy highlights from

:23:21. > :23:23.Edmonton. On the final day of competition, it has certainly been a

:23:24. > :23:29.good week with plenty to celebrate. Highlights? Too many! I know you're

:23:30. > :23:34.going to say, so I'm going to go with James Guy in the relay, because

:23:35. > :23:37.I think it shows the strength and depth, and those guys are stepping

:23:38. > :23:42.up and getting faster, and there is still so much more to come I'm

:23:43. > :23:48.cheering the relay. They are getting better one. Adam Peaty, for me,

:23:49. > :23:52.rewriting the history books. They have rewritten the history books,

:23:53. > :23:56.plenty for us to celebrate. That's our boys on the podium, getting the

:23:57. > :23:56.silver for the relay. Congratulations, Team GB. Goodbye

:23:57. > :24:12.from us. Sarah Sjostrom gets the gold. He's

:24:13. > :24:18.pulling away, Caeleb Dressel. That is an outstanding swim. 80 K, the

:24:19. > :24:23.most successful female in World Championship swimming history. --

:24:24. > :24:30.Katie Ledecky. What a fantastic, gutsy swim. Chad Le Clos. A

:24:31. > :24:35.wonderful silver medal to Great Britain. They are the world

:24:36. > :24:43.champions again. What a brilliant swim! Has he got the finish? I think

:24:44. > :24:47.he has. He has won the World Championship. Adam Peaty has

:24:48. > :24:49.destroyed the rest of the pool. Phenomenal.

:24:50. > :24:52.Experience the power of the BBC Proms.
