your hosts, Clare Balding and Mark Chapman!

:01:00.:01:34.

was very keen on having a dog on the show. This one was part of the

:01:35.:01:41.

Opening Ceremony, she was with Sierra Leone and Kiribati. Mark was

:01:42.:01:47.

not so keen! My heart was pounding! I have a phobia of dogs, I know it

:01:48.:01:52.

is ridiculous, I am sure they are lovely, but I am very

:01:53.:01:53.

is ridiculous, I am sure they are lovely, but I scared! On the chair

:01:54.:02:00.

tonight, loads of sport, netball, athletics, boxing finals. Table

:02:01.:02:05.

tennis, powerlifting, squash, diving. We will be joined by a whole

:02:06.:02:14.

host of medallists. BBC Scotland have been fabulous to host us, our

:02:15.:02:20.

last Tonight At The Games. We do to rattle through! Let's give a warm

:02:21.:02:24.

welcome to these guys, The Federation.

:02:25.:02:34.

If you want to get in touch, you can do so. Use the hashtag. It is a

:02:35.:02:44.

mystery medallist line-up. We are not quite sure who is coming on! We

:02:45.:02:51.

started the day at the SECC, not easy to say at this time of night,

:02:52.:02:56.

when you are scared of dogs! We were full of hope for England's netball

:02:57.:03:01.

team. They took on New Zealand in their semifinal. We sent Katherine

:03:02.:03:06.

Grainger down. Yesterday, she had been at the hockey shoot out.

:03:07.:03:11.

We have just about calm down after the excitement at the hockey

:03:12.:03:15.

semifinal between New Zealand and England. Day ten, it is the same

:03:16.:03:21.

again, get the heart rate ready, but the same teams, a semifinal, but

:03:22.:03:26.

this time it is net all. Great vision. England extend their

:03:27.:03:45.

lead. New Zealand are rattled. The changes working for New Zealand at

:03:46.:03:48.

the moment. England will get away with that. The girls are playing

:03:49.:04:00.

awesome, Jo is bossing it. They are taking the first-time ball,

:04:01.:04:04.

off-loading quickly, into space. The Kiwis have got range, but if we can

:04:05.:04:08.

get the ball into the pockets, that is what is working with them. What a

:04:09.:04:13.

ball, that is what she is good at. What a finish. Quality defence. New

:04:14.:04:21.

Zealand will fancy their chances as they level it up. England have given

:04:22.:04:28.

up a four goal lead. Brown has come up short. The final 30 seconds, the

:04:29.:04:41.

crowd are going bonkers. They do not want to rush it. They to look after

:04:42.:04:49.

the ball. She has given it away! One more chance for New Zealand. If they

:04:50.:04:57.

do not score, we go to extra time. It might not come to that. She has

:04:58.:05:06.

won it! New Zealand are over the line! New Zealand have one! With two

:05:07.:05:13.

seconds left on the clock! Heartbreak for England. Once again,

:05:14.:05:18.

they have come up short in a major semifinal.

:05:19.:05:22.

I do not know where to start, it was so close again. It was building... I

:05:23.:05:31.

cannot even speak, I am gutted for them. They worked so hard, it was so

:05:32.:05:36.

close, I thought they would make history. They let patches slip, the

:05:37.:05:42.

Kiwis came back in. They could not quite pull away. They had a six goal

:05:43.:05:47.

lead at one point. It came down to the last second, one mistake, and it

:05:48.:05:52.

is down the other end, and Maria gets the goal. One of our aims was

:05:53.:05:58.

to beat Australia and New Zealand, and we have lost to both of them by

:05:59.:06:03.

one goal. To push them that way is a credit to us and to our

:06:04.:06:07.

preparations. It is games like that, you have to learn from them.

:06:08.:06:11.

Put it in the memory bank and build on it. They are 12, 18 athletes that

:06:12.:06:18.

pushed the boundaries, demanded more from each other and me, and I have

:06:19.:06:22.

the biggest honour to be coaching this team, and God help the world,

:06:23.:06:26.

cos we are coming out hard next year. Australia were to strong for

:06:27.:06:34.

Jamaica in the other semifinal. Like every other previous Commonwealth

:06:35.:06:37.

Games netball final, it will be Australia against New Zealand. What

:06:38.:06:42.

we have seen today, it is a repeat of what we have seen of the last ten

:06:43.:06:47.

days. A reminder that those athletes, the commitment, passion,

:06:48.:06:50.

pride, ferocity and enjoyment that they show, whether they win or

:06:51.:06:56.

lose, they will remain an inspiration, and the budgeted to try

:06:57.:06:59.

to achieve, to compete, to challenge, to debt and to dream,

:07:00.:07:06.

that is the reason why we will all always play, watch and love sport.

:07:07.:07:11.

Katherine Grainger has done some fantastic reporting for us, many

:07:12.:07:19.

thanks. It is unbearable to watch a game, but especially so for Pamela

:07:20.:07:24.

Cookey, who would have been the captain, and Tamsin Greenway, part

:07:25.:07:28.

of the team who won the bronze medal in Delhi. Can you be more removed

:07:29.:07:33.

from it and say, this is what went wrong? This time, it is still

:07:34.:07:39.

difficult to watch it. There are elements where I can say, ten

:07:40.:07:44.

minutes of a quarter, we were firing, the last five minutes of

:07:45.:07:49.

each quarter, we let it slip. In the last quarter, it was not the five

:07:50.:07:54.

minutes, it was the one minute. It happened in three quarters, England

:07:55.:08:00.

went five points clear, and then allowed them to come back in. We

:08:01.:08:05.

have got to look at the basics and Heidi Simi let that under pressure.

:08:06.:08:09.

We had the close game against Australia, then the Kiwis, and we

:08:10.:08:12.

are performing for long Australia, then the Kiwis, and we

:08:13.:08:17.

it is how you close out the game. You see the Australians and New

:08:18.:08:20.

Zealanders, they churn it out, and it is how we approach it. Does it

:08:21.:08:23.

partly helped that a Aussies and Kiwis play down under,

:08:24.:08:29.

in a domestic league that both of you have said probably creates more

:08:30.:08:36.

pressure than ours? Definitely, it is we came, we capped, hard, tough

:08:37.:08:41.

pressure than ours? Definitely, it games. They have the background

:08:42.:08:43.

knowledge, they know they can come out on top. When they are running

:08:44.:08:48.

out of time, they look like they have all the time, and when England

:08:49.:08:54.

are, they looked panicked. Yes, and that comes with exposure at the top

:08:55.:08:58.

level. We have got five other girls playing out there, but not all of

:08:59.:09:03.

them have experienced that. They utilise their squads, they just

:09:04.:09:08.

those players who have the chance. In our crunch games, I do not think

:09:09.:09:11.

we have got everybody on court, we almost waited to go behind, or the

:09:12.:09:19.

momentum to change. I read one piece that said it would serve the team

:09:20.:09:22.

better to note that this was a missed opportunity rather than a

:09:23.:09:26.

glorious failure, take it for what it was, it was a game that should

:09:27.:09:30.

have been one. Definitely, they are distraught. They knew they would

:09:31.:09:34.

come here, it was theirs for the taking. It was taken from them. Is a

:09:35.:09:39.

bronze medal against Jamaica tomorrow just reward? Everybody

:09:40.:09:48.

knows, we started together ten years ago, we were getting pumped by the

:09:49.:09:52.

Aussies and Kiwis, so we have, long way. NUT squad was good enough. But

:09:53.:09:59.

you cannot concentrate on that, they have to win a bronze medal tomorrow.

:10:00.:10:04.

Thank you to you both for coming in, sorry we had to relive it again! The

:10:05.:10:11.

bronze medal match tomorrow at 10am on BBC Three, and the final is

:10:12.:10:14.

Australia against New Zealand. As you will know, we have a wonderful

:10:15.:10:22.

band, The Federation. As this is the last Tonight At The Games, we should

:10:23.:10:25.

give them a name check. On drums and daddy. On piano, Marco. We have

:10:26.:10:35.

Johnny and Dave on saxophone. There is my little brother Scott on

:10:36.:10:40.

trumpet. And this is Mike on guitar and vocals. Usually, it would be

:10:41.:10:48.

Ross on base, but a night, a special guest appearance from the double

:10:49.:10:51.

Commonwealth tandem gold medallist Craig Maclean of Scotland.

:10:52.:11:26.

Craig, come down. We ought to remember... You are the athlete! You

:11:27.:11:36.

forget that you have to put your normal lives on hold while due

:11:37.:11:40.

competing, and your band have had to put touring on hold, because you

:11:41.:11:45.

have been competing. Touring Manchester, sorry! We just play

:11:46.:11:53.

weddings, corporate stuff, a bit of fun more than anything. When is your

:11:54.:11:58.

next gig? The drummer is letting us down for the next three, he is going

:11:59.:12:02.

on holiday. The 30th of August, something like that. Two gold medals

:12:03.:12:06.

around his neck, Craig Maclean! Let's go to the table tennis, and

:12:07.:12:19.

all English old medal mixed doubles final to look at in a moment. After

:12:20.:12:22.

the women's doubles bronze medal match.

:12:23.:12:30.

They are bronze medallist. You have to sympathise with these two. Here

:12:31.:12:49.

are the women for the doubles gold medal match, the Australians, with

:12:50.:12:53.

the favourites for the title, Singapore. They seal it

:12:54.:12:58.

emphatically. They take the gold medal. England's Liam Pitchford,

:12:59.:13:09.

against his Indian opponent. Liam Pitchford rejoicing, he has

:13:10.:13:18.

taken the bronze medal. Two gladiators in the men's singles

:13:19.:13:38.

gold medal match. Serving could beforehand for a change. A brilliant

:13:39.:13:45.

performance. The second seed takes the gold medal. Next, the bronze

:13:46.:13:54.

medal match in the mixed doubles, England looking for a clean sweep.

:13:55.:14:05.

They do it! With the tears coming into her eyes, she has the bronze

:14:06.:14:14.

medal. Here we go, the mixed doubles gold medal match, the final between

:14:15.:14:20.

Liam Pitchford and Tin-Tin Ho and Paul and Joanna Drinkhall. Who would

:14:21.:14:28.

have thought the final would have been England against England?

:14:29.:14:34.

Amazing. That is brilliant from Paul and Joanna Drinkhall. Now, match

:14:35.:14:36.

point. They have done it. The light for

:14:37.:14:51.

Paul and Joanna Drinkhall, a historical feat of remarkable

:14:52.:14:55.

magnitude. Three English pairs, liens from England.

:14:56.:15:06.

and Joanna Drinkhall, and Liam Pitchford and Tin-Tin Ho!

:15:07.:15:27.

APPLAUSE. Well done. It is not often we get all the finalists from the

:15:28.:15:40.

competition. Is this the most successful you have been, England

:15:41.:15:45.

have been at table tennis? Three medals was the best and this time we

:15:46.:15:49.

have managed to get five across the team, which is an achievement. In

:15:50.:15:54.

Manchester, we got two gold medals. In Delhi, we had two bronze medals

:15:55.:16:04.

and a silver. Was it odd, playing each other in the final? Not

:16:05.:16:12.

something we had been used to. Do you temper celebrations? You know

:16:13.:16:20.

each other? It wasn't a big celebration, we won on a net. And

:16:21.:16:30.

you actually apologise. Of course, it is not like winning a gold

:16:31.:16:37.

medal, but it is part of the sport. It is either perfectly judged or

:16:38.:16:45.

very lucky! The good news, Liam Pitchford, Tin-Tin Ho, you are

:16:46.:16:46.

pretty young. 21. 15. CHEERING. How Pitchford, Tin-Tin Ho, you are

:16:47.:17:01.

would you sum up your experience of the Commonwealth Games, how much

:17:02.:17:06.

have you learned? I have learned so much. I have had a lot of ups and

:17:07.:17:12.

downs in the tournament. At what age did you stop playing? Your father is

:17:13.:17:18.

a huge fan of table tennis. I started

:17:19.:17:22.

a huge fan of table tennis. I lovably picked up my first table

:17:23.:17:25.

a huge fan of table tennis. I tennis bat at the age of two. If

:17:26.:17:30.

anybody is watching, start early. You can go to the Get Inspired

:17:31.:17:36.

website. You have a big thing happening on Monday. Can you

:17:37.:17:41.

remember? We are moving into our new flats. -- flat. We completed on that

:17:42.:17:49.

during the Commonwealth Games, which is great news, because we have been

:17:50.:17:53.

trying for two years to get a place. Is everything sorted? You are giving

:17:54.:18:00.

me very different facial expressions. Joanna, you look like

:18:01.:18:03.

you know expressions. Joanna, you look like

:18:04.:18:05.

you are looking like you do not know.

:18:06.:18:12.

you are looking like you do not Joanna's parents

:18:13.:18:14.

you are looking like you do not they will be glad to

:18:15.:18:16.

you are looking like you do not us. We will be glad to get our own

:18:17.:18:20.

place. What is the next big tournament? We have the European

:18:21.:18:26.

Championships in September. On the back of this, I think we have a good

:18:27.:18:32.

chance to do well. You are the highest ranked English man since

:18:33.:18:38.

2001? Yes, I got to 52 in the world and hopefully I will get higher.

:18:39.:18:43.

Well done and thanks so much for coming in.

:18:44.:18:45.

The gold and silver-medallists coming in.

:18:46.:18:51.

England. CHEERING. Good luck. And good luck with the move.

:18:52.:18:57.

It was a massive afternoon and evening in boxing with 13 gold

:18:58.:19:01.

medals to be won and evening in boxing with 13 gold

:19:02.:19:05.

these there were contenders from evening in boxing with 13 gold

:19:06.:19:08.

England. We can see what happened at the afternoon session.

:19:09.:19:15.

England. We can see what happened at Day ten and we are at the Hydro to

:19:16.:19:18.

witness history. Could Nicola Adams Day ten and we are at the Hydro to

:19:19.:19:19.

be the first woman to win Commonwealth Games Golder boxing?

:19:20.:19:26.

Like she was the first woman to win the Olympic gold medal in the same

:19:27.:19:31.

sport. Standing in her way, the Northern Irish boxer, Michaela

:19:32.:19:38.

Walsh. The raw is the Nicola Adams. She said she wanted to make history,

:19:39.:19:44.

to be the Olympic champion and become the Commonwealth Games

:19:45.:19:48.

champion. Let's get ready. Let's get ready to rumble. A good use of the

:19:49.:20:02.

jab by both boxers. The 21-year-old from Northern Ireland does not seem

:20:03.:20:04.

intimidated by the 31-year-old Olympic champion. A beautiful

:20:05.:20:14.

corkscrew left from Nicola Adams. Round two was very close to call.

:20:15.:20:20.

Michaela Walsh is not making it easy for Nicola Adams. Adams, a long

:20:21.:20:29.

left. They were going hell for leather for three rounds. One round

:20:30.:20:35.

to go. We begin the final session in pursuit of Commonwealth Games gold.

:20:36.:20:40.

Walsh looking to pick her punches, remain patient. Both fighters put

:20:41.:20:48.

their hands up in the air, as if to say, done deal. We'll experience win

:20:49.:20:54.

out over youth? We have a split decision. The

:20:55.:21:02.

women's flyweight champion, in the blue corner, representing England,

:21:03.:21:09.

Nicola Adams! Nicola Adams has done it, the first woman to win Olympic

:21:10.:21:14.

gold and now the first woman to win the Commonwealth gold. Fair play to

:21:15.:21:19.

her. But Michaela Walsh proved she is somebody to look out for in the

:21:20.:21:27.

future. It is not her fault, it was a close fight. They gave it to her.

:21:28.:21:35.

But I know myself I won the fight. I would like to say well done.

:21:36.:21:41.

Elsewhere, there was a gold medal for Northern Ireland as Paddy Barnes

:21:42.:21:46.

successfully defended the light flyweight title he won in Delhi.

:21:47.:21:50.

Michael Conlan overpowered the England boxer Qais Ashfaq other

:21:51.:21:59.

unanimous verdict. Charlie Flynn of Scotland beat Joe Fitzpatrick to

:22:00.:22:03.

take the title as Scotland's Josh Taylor gave the home crowd more to

:22:04.:22:08.

cheer about as he claimed another gold medal. A great afternoon for

:22:09.:22:14.

the home nations, with women making history.

:22:15.:22:20.

What a valiant display by Michaela Walsh, who won the silver medal. You

:22:21.:22:26.

can see why people tip her for future greatness, but respect is due

:22:27.:22:31.

to Nicola Adams, Olympic champion and now Commonwealth champion. That

:22:32.:22:39.

has a ring to it! Boxing is definitely a sport. My work is done.

:22:40.:22:50.

As you can see, Amir Khan, the Olympic silver-medallist is here.

:22:51.:22:58.

CHEERING. We can get the Commonwealth

:22:59.:23:03.

champions on. Nicola Adams, Paddy Barnes, Charlie Flynn, Michael

:23:04.:23:04.

Conlan and Josh Taylor. CHEERING. Charlie took out Clyde! Actually, I

:23:05.:23:48.

think I took out Clyde. Charlie, the man who wins the gold medal to

:23:49.:23:52.

Scotland and writes his own headlines. The best one being? The

:23:53.:24:02.

headline he came up with. There are so many, I do not know. The mailman

:24:03.:24:12.

always delivers. APPLAUSE. For people who do not know what you do

:24:13.:24:16.

in your day job, why is that a good line? Because I work in the Royal

:24:17.:24:22.

Mail sorting office. It is a good laugh, you know what I mean?

:24:23.:24:32.

CHEERING. At the moment you look as you did on

:24:33.:24:36.

the podium, which is this is just so much fun. You get the prize for the

:24:37.:24:47.

most animated singing of Flower Of Scotland. You really went for it.

:24:48.:24:49.

Look at it. Cheering. Josh, you said you had pictured in

:24:50.:25:06.

1000 times, what it would be like, standing on the podium. Was it

:25:07.:25:14.

everything you had pictured? Words cannot describe the feeling. I will

:25:15.:25:20.

never forget that. It was brilliant. CHEERING.

:25:21.:25:27.

Is it the same for all of you? The arena had had gymnastics and every

:25:28.:25:32.

time I was there, I thought it was the perfect arena of the sport. Did

:25:33.:25:39.

you feel that? It was amazing. I looked around, looking up and seeing

:25:40.:25:44.

how high it was. It was brilliant for me. The atmosphere was

:25:45.:25:51.

brilliant. Paddy, rock singer is so strong in Northern Ireland and you

:25:52.:25:58.

were the first with the gold medal. What was it like? The arena is so

:25:59.:26:09.

big. These guys love their boxing, especially in Glasgow, and it was

:26:10.:26:14.

good to be a part of it. You put extra pressure on Michael. Saying if

:26:15.:26:20.

you did not win, you would not be letting him back in the room. I

:26:21.:26:27.

watched him, shadow-boxing in the warm up. And he said you have to

:26:28.:26:31.

win. I was more worried about getting back to the room! Nicola

:26:32.:26:37.

Adams, the first woman to win an Olympic gold medal has now become

:26:38.:26:50.

the first to win... CHEERING. Let's be honest, Michaela, she gave

:26:51.:26:54.

you the toughest fight you probably ever had. Definitely. It was a

:26:55.:27:01.

cracking match and made for an exciting final. Everybody wants to

:27:02.:27:05.

see something that is neck and neck. I think that is what we gave them.

:27:06.:27:11.

You were pumped up at the end, as you would be. Did you feel you had a

:27:12.:27:18.

point to prove? I felt a lot of pressure had been lifted. Everybody

:27:19.:27:23.

was expecting me to win, especially after the performance at the Olympic

:27:24.:27:30.

Games. There was a lot to achieve. I was happy I could do that tonight.

:27:31.:27:38.

How is life now? You have funding to train full-time until Rio?

:27:39.:27:44.

Definitely, we are funded by UK sport and that is fine. We train

:27:45.:27:49.

Monday to Thursday every week in Sheffield.

:27:50.:27:54.

Monday to Thursday every week in team. Charlie, you do not have that

:27:55.:28:00.

Monday to Thursday every week in work four days a week and I have my

:28:01.:28:08.

training around it. I am good, I have my shifts. CHEERING.

:28:09.:28:18.

Paddy is have my shifts. CHEERING.

:28:19.:28:23.

decision whether to go professional will come for a

:28:24.:28:24.

decision whether to go professional boxers. Do you want to go to Rio

:28:25.:28:34.

first? I just love boxing. The Hydro, it is not like amateur

:28:35.:28:47.

boxing. Is it a difficult decision to pick the right time? It will be

:28:48.:28:53.

boxing. Is it a difficult decision because they will have many phone

:28:54.:28:56.

calls from people around the world. I have to say, the British

:28:57.:29:02.

fighters, they fought so well, I was impressed with their skills. They

:29:03.:29:06.

will get a lot of calls and people wanting to see them in the

the evening session. champion in the history of the

Commonwealth Games. What an opening round for the Englishman. A right

:30:27.:30:34.

hand. He is sent careering back to the canvas. Scott Fitzgerald will

:30:35.:30:40.

occupy top spot on the welterweight rostrum. Anthony Fowler in blue.

:30:41.:30:50.

That was a good shot. Anthony Fowler is having a go. This was a bit

naughty. What a good start by the Englishman. Anthony Fowler boxing

We get so many old medallists on, fresh from the boxing ring, three

:32:04.:32:09.

more Commonwealth champions, Savanna Marshall, Scott Fitzgerald and

:32:10.:32:10.

Anthony Fowler! I will be honest, only one of you

:32:11.:32:45.

looks like you have been involved in a

:32:46.:32:46.

I will be honest, only one of you looks like fight! The trouble for

:32:47.:32:50.

Scott, you look like this after the semifinals. You did not look great

:32:51.:32:57.

in the photo. The bandages all over you. How did you get back out today

:32:58.:33:06.

and feel OK? That helped! That is from last night! I look like a

:33:07.:33:13.

mummy! That put down the swelling. I woke up, it was not so bad today. It

:33:14.:33:19.

did the job, and I could win today. We touched on the head guards, the

:33:20.:33:24.

lack of them, do you think there should be head guards for the men,

:33:25.:33:31.

to protect them? I think so. The amount of had booked that went in

:33:32.:33:35.

today, there were so many. They were accidental, but people say the head

:33:36.:33:46.

guards wobbles the brain, but you get more damage and trauma to the

:33:47.:33:52.

head when you get head-butted. If you are in a championship and you

:33:53.:33:56.

get head-butted in the first round of the tournament, you have got

:33:57.:34:00.

another five fights to go. You might be the favourite to win the gold

:34:01.:34:05.

medal. I think the guards should come back, but the International

:34:06.:34:11.

Boxing Association are going to send a report tomorrow about either

:34:12.:34:15.

bringing them back or not. And today, you are part of a famous

:34:16.:34:21.

family. My cousin Robbie played for England and Liverpool. Has he been

:34:22.:34:27.

supporting you? Yes, he sent the text messages, letting me know he is

:34:28.:34:32.

supporting me. The fireworks going off again! Eddie Hern has called you

:34:33.:34:40.

a miniature Carl Froch. He is a role model to me. I look up to him, it is

:34:41.:34:49.

great, getting compared to him. Have you dished it out to him? I can

:34:50.:34:56.

match him, but over a longer fight, he can breakdown. If I can turn

:34:57.:35:04.

professional, hopefully I can achieve what he has achieved. The

:35:05.:35:08.

boxes here do not flinch with the fireworks! Savanna, who was your

:35:09.:35:15.

inspiration to start boxing? I started through friends. I tried

:35:16.:35:21.

everything else, football, karate, so it was something different. The

:35:22.:35:26.

Olympics was a disappointment, so do you feel like this is giving you

:35:27.:35:35.

something back? Yes. The Olympics was a disappointment for me, but I

:35:36.:35:41.

took loads of experience from it, and coming into the Commonwealth

:35:42.:35:45.

Games, I knew what to expect. What is next for you? My World

:35:46.:35:50.

Championships are in November. I am hoping to go there. Thank you for

:35:51.:35:55.

coming on, uni to get another icepack, Scott! And thank you to

:35:56.:36:07.

Amir Khan as well. Let's move on to the final night of athletics at

:36:08.:36:08.

Hampden Park, where it was very wet. It is raining, it is cold, perfect

:36:09.:36:24.

running weather. Jo Pavey, 40 years of age, running for England. Kenya

:36:25.:36:29.

will win the gold medal, but look at Jo Pavey! She is going to be OK, a

:36:30.:36:36.

bronze model for Jo Pavey. For everybody sitting at home who has

:36:37.:36:39.

thought their days have gone by, not Jo Pavey.

:36:40.:36:47.

It is good, at 30 years of age, she is the defending champion.

:36:48.:36:59.

Look at the height he got in the third phase. It looked very close to

:37:00.:37:06.

his lifetime best. It is very good, a season's best.

:37:07.:37:15.

He is powerful, the javelin has been jumping out of his hand. Can he do

:37:16.:37:25.

it? Yes, he can. He learned to throw the javelin on YouTube, and he is

:37:26.:37:31.

the Commonwealth champion. Here comes Nick Willis. Who is going to

:37:32.:37:38.

win the gold medal? The Kenyans. Nick Willis gets the bronze bundle,

:37:39.:37:43.

but Kenya get first and second. The silver medallist from Delhi tones it

:37:44.:37:49.

into a gold medal on a rainy day in Scotland. Stephanie MacPherson has

:37:50.:37:58.

judged it well, a second gold medal for her, and a gold medal for the

:37:59.:38:03.

Jamaican quartet. England take the bronze. Jamaica, a new Commonwealth

:38:04.:38:13.

Games record. What a race we have. Daniel Awde will give it to Matthew

:38:14.:38:18.

Hudson-Smith. Chris Brown is charging. Matthew Hudson-Smith, a

:38:19.:38:27.

gold medal again! Can he hold on? Matthew Hudson-Smith might just make

:38:28.:38:34.

it. What a great race! He did not even need windscreen wipers. Jamaica

:38:35.:38:45.

are well clear, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce storms to the gold

:38:46.:38:51.

medal. Nigeria get second, England get the bronze medal. It was always

:38:52.:39:00.

going to be about Usain Bolt. I want to join in the party. England lead,

:39:01.:39:08.

but here comes Usain Bolt. Usain Bolt streaking away. Usain Bolt

:39:09.:39:18.

takes the title. He came, he conquered, and we are all happy that

:39:19.:39:20.

he did. Yes, he lit up Hampden Park. Colin

:39:21.:39:25.

Jackson is There were a

:39:26.:39:35.

performances on the track, and one There were a

:39:36.:39:46.

said, I do not cry much, but Jo Pavey has got to me. I am so proud.

:39:47.:39:52.

We are delighted to say that Jo Pavey is here, along with England's

:39:53.:40:01.

Commonwealth champions, Conrad Williams, Michael Bingham, Daniel

:40:02.:40:03.

Awde and Matthew Hudson-Smith! We need more sofas if we do this

:40:04.:40:33.

again! We will work on it! Such a filthy night, weather-wise. Jo

:40:34.:40:40.

Pavey, you lit it up. So many people saying how much they were moved by

:40:41.:40:46.

your effort. The unlikeliness of your story, because you said it

:40:47.:40:48.

yourself, who were surprised your story, because you said it

:40:49.:40:54.

a medal. Kelly Holmes has always been an inspiration, so to have

:40:55.:40:59.

messages like that was awesome. It was funny, it was surreal when I got

:41:00.:41:04.

a medal, I could not believe it. It was funny, I am 40, I have two

:41:05.:41:06.

little kids. Ten months ago, were you even

:41:07.:41:19.

thinking about competing? She was in labour. Exactly! Not at that exact

:41:20.:41:28.

moment, but a week after the baby... I was still breast-feeding at the

:41:29.:41:32.

start of April, so I found this totally unrealistic. I thought, I

:41:33.:41:36.

will go for it and see if I can qualify. I enjoy the look on

:41:37.:41:43.

Conrad's face! I cannot believe I got a medal, and thank you to

:41:44.:41:47.

everybody who supported me. I am really chuffed. A great performance.

:41:48.:41:57.

And so was the relay. Conrad, you started off, what would you

:41:58.:42:01.

feeling? Were you thinking, we can win this? Definitely, we had a

:42:02.:42:08.

meeting, we were so up for it. But then the weather came, and I was

:42:09.:42:12.

like, we are going to have to be more up for it! But we are used to

:42:13.:42:18.

these conditions, we believe in each other, we run for each other, we

:42:19.:42:22.

knew how important it was to get the cult medal, as it was the first

:42:23.:42:28.

track gold medal. It feels like a home Commonwealth Games for us as

:42:29.:42:32.

well. When you look at the other competitors, did you think, they

:42:33.:42:36.

might not fancy it, we could have an advantage? At the beginning, we set

:42:37.:42:45.

out to win. We had plenty of conversations with our courage and

:42:46.:42:50.

support staff, and between the guys, we said, we will win. That

:42:51.:42:54.

determination pushed us through, and it did not matter whether it was 30

:42:55.:43:00.

degrees or 16, we gave everything we had today. We warmed up in a small

:43:01.:43:11.

room while it was raining. What kind of warm up can you do in a small

:43:12.:43:19.

room? Not much! You did half the job, then you handed on to Daniel.

:43:20.:43:23.

You run your heart out. As you handed over to Matthew, what were

:43:24.:43:30.

you thinking? Get out of the way that fell in front of me! His bomb

:43:31.:43:37.

hit the floor, that is all I heard. I gave it over, and I saw this bomb

:43:38.:43:44.

disappear in the distance, and I thought we have got this. As soon as

:43:45.:43:52.

he went off into the distance, did you think you would when? We had tea

:43:53.:43:57.

meetings yesterday and today, and we said, this could happen. This is the

:43:58.:44:06.

ultimatum, but either way .Mac we said, if Matthew something to do! We

:44:07.:44:14.

knew Matthew would come through, because we wanted him to have

:44:15.:44:22.

something today. We knew they had Brown in the last leg. He thought,

:44:23.:44:31.

you are not having this one, mate. You are biting your lip, I thought

:44:32.:44:35.

you would fall over the line, for a cute stride, it looked like you were

:44:36.:44:40.

going to get done, so where did you find the extra strength? I nearly

:44:41.:44:44.

did fall over. Look at the rain! I nearly slipped. That helped a bit.

:44:45.:44:52.

What advantage to the classes give you?

:44:53.:45:12.

lines are blurred. I am really blind, as well! I was disqualified

:45:13.:45:18.

at the British Championships because I could not see the lines. Can I

:45:19.:45:25.

ask, where we you competing one year ago? I was around. Were you doing

:45:26.:45:35.

schools Championships? I was doing English schools.

:45:36.:45:48.

He's had a fascinating breakthrough. I think he would be happy to return

:45:49.:45:54.

to Glasgow because his personal best was broken here. In difficult

:45:55.:46:01.

conditions, out in late eight. A real professional performance. This

:46:02.:46:06.

team, they will do well next week because they have the European

:46:07.:46:10.

Championships, as well. They will not be able to party too hard. If

:46:11.:46:16.

you see them, let me know. They can win gold medals next week, also.

:46:17.:46:23.

They are fantastic. I would like to put money on one person to party,

:46:24.:46:32.

Daniel! One word on the pole vaults. Wales was desperate to hear the

:46:33.:46:36.

national anthem. I am in the commentary box, I am getting wound

:46:37.:46:41.

up continuously. Sally was so close today. Conditions, it was always

:46:42.:46:48.

going to be difficult. She was so close to getting the gold medal and

:46:49.:46:56.

if she had she would have been the first Welsh Commonwealth champion

:46:57.:47:01.

since 1990. She was that close. We are delighted you could come here.

:47:02.:47:09.

Thank you so much for joining us. This programme is becoming about how

:47:10.:47:13.

many medallists weaken squash onto the sofa, so as we cheer for them,

:47:14.:47:19.

we will catch up on the squash -- we can.

:47:20.:47:24.

COMMENTATOR: Up against Australia. The English continue with the

:47:25.:47:40.

momentum. Beddoes and Alison Waters, the first game on the board.

:47:41.:47:46.

They keep the momentum they have in the second game. This time away from

:47:47.:47:56.

Rachael Grinham's racket. An amazing performance. They score the bronze

:47:57.:48:03.

medal. Jenny Duncalf and Laura Massaro. This is a good start by the

:48:04.:48:08.

Indian pair. Well played. A huge finish. Four game points for India.

:48:09.:48:32.

India are one game up against the number one seeds. Game number two.

:48:33.:48:40.

What a shot from Jenny Duncalf, it was beautifully crafted. Down the

:48:41.:48:46.

middle worked a treat again. That was a gorgeous shot. Match

:48:47.:49:16.

point at number two. Wonderful. Two real heroines of India. They were

:49:17.:49:21.

just brilliant. The first-ever squash gold medal for India.

:49:22.:49:27.

I have moved to the bar. This is a special, well shocked. I know you

:49:28.:49:37.

are meant to down them but I cannot do that on television. That was peer

:49:38.:49:43.

pressure! I have to talk to our silver-medallists. Laura Massaro,

:49:44.:49:46.

two silver medals and silver-medallists. Laura Massaro,

:49:47.:49:53.

doubles. Just really proud of our week together. We do not often play

:49:54.:49:58.

doubles in squash, just the Commonwealth Games. We had a good

:49:59.:50:02.

week and really enjoyed it. When you enjoy it like that, it is nice to

:50:03.:50:07.

play. The Indian women claim all, you do not get so much chance to

:50:08.:50:13.

practice. We practise this summer, but we only play it in the coal

:50:14.:50:18.

wealth games. They were pretty sharp today, unfortunately for us, but it

:50:19.:50:23.

has been a great couple of weeks in Glasgow and a pleasure playing in

:50:24.:50:26.

front of the crowds. We thoroughly enjoyed our time. Hopefully we will

:50:27.:50:31.

try and change the colour of the medal in a few years. Is it a

:50:32.:50:37.

different game tactically, the Indian players exploited the middle

:50:38.:50:45.

of the court? They exposed us a little bit. They have great hands.

:50:46.:50:51.

We played well to reach the final and are chuffed with the silver

:50:52.:50:56.

medals. The talk has been from a lot of people that squash or the India

:50:57.:51:02.

Olympics. A lot of people do not realise it is not. It is getting the

:51:03.:51:07.

coverage it deserves and people realise it

:51:08.:51:11.

coverage it deserves and people and they are asking questions,

:51:12.:51:12.

coverage it deserves and people hopefully the International Olympic

:51:13.:51:18.

Committee will here. If we can produce spectacles like today,

:51:19.:51:20.

Committee will here. If we can the crowd, it is phenomenal. Fingers

:51:21.:51:26.

crossed. Emma Beddoes has a bronze medal. We will give all three are

:51:27.:51:29.

round of medal. We will give all three are

:51:30.:51:37.

We will now take a look at what else is happening today.

:51:38.:51:45.

Australia's men will be going for fifth consecutive Commonwealth title

:51:46.:51:52.

after beating England 4-1. In a repeat of the 2010 final, they

:51:53.:51:56.

after beating England 4-1. In a meet India. They beat New Zealand in

:51:57.:52:01.

the other semifinal. Scotland's Robert Blair and

:52:02.:52:04.

the other semifinal. Scotland's bronze in the mixed doubles and

:52:05.:52:08.

there could be badminton gold tomorrow as Kirsty Gilmour has

:52:09.:52:11.

reached the singles final where she will play Canada's Michelle Li.

:52:12.:52:21.

We have set Lee Williams the challenge of speaking to an athlete

:52:22.:52:25.

from all 71 nations and territories and the Commonwealth and you have

:52:26.:52:32.

saved the best until last. I have had 70 nations and I needed to find

:52:33.:52:38.

one who embodied Scotland. The athlete I found is a pipe of

:52:39.:52:42.

international calibre and her boyfriend is the keyboard player in

:52:43.:52:52.

Runrig. All stop she was also speaking Gaelic before she was

:52:53.:52:55.

speaking English. Kerry MacPhee. How many athletes from the Outer

:52:56.:53:15.

Hebrides in the Scottish team? I am the first female from the Hebrides

:53:16.:53:20.

to be in the Commonwealth Games. Just a few days ago you were racing

:53:21.:53:27.

just down here. In the slalom, it was ten metres deep with people

:53:28.:53:34.

saying, go, Kerry! Today, there are no flags. It is rubbish! How did you

:53:35.:53:46.

become sporty? My dad reckons that we grew up the Croft and kept sheep

:53:47.:53:50.

and he would get is up in the morning and we did not have a

:53:51.:53:54.

sheepdog and the kids that do the running. Uphill, as well. I look

:53:55.:53:59.

back, I think it had a lot to do with my potential. And my aptitude

:54:00.:54:05.

for endurance sport. Most people had sheepdogs and not children to do the

:54:06.:54:10.

work. But I am here now, so thank you, dad, for getting me out of bed

:54:11.:54:16.

on a Saturday morning! That is Kerry Macphee. On the mountain bike

:54:17.:54:27.

trails. She had incredible support from the Outer Hebrides. The first

:54:28.:54:32.

Outer Hebrides athlete to take part in the Commonwealth Games for over

:54:33.:54:37.

50 years. She is an inspiration to everybody up there. She is

:54:38.:54:40.

determined to go to the next Commonwealth Games in Australia in

:54:41.:54:46.

2018. You have done a terrific job. Not

:54:47.:54:51.

only is this a good geography lesson, it has embodied the spirit

:54:52.:54:56.

of the Commonwealth Games. One of the reasons Glasgow 2014 has been

:54:57.:55:01.

successful is it celebrated a quality and integration. There have

:55:02.:55:09.

been successful para-sport event in sports such as lawn bowls, and today

:55:10.:55:15.

was the turn of powerlifting. With powerlifting, it is not as

:55:16.:55:20.

simple as lifting the heaviest weight, it is also based on the

:55:21.:55:28.

athlete's body weight. On we go to Natalie Blake. Three out of three,

:55:29.:55:41.

you cannot ask for much more. Nothing but strength and

:55:42.:55:45.

determination. It is awesome to see a home nations athlete perform like

:55:46.:55:53.

that. Why not have a tear? A great occasion and achievement. Itching to

:55:54.:56:03.

get on stage is this man, Ali Jawad. I have never seen a world records

:56:04.:56:10.

look that easy. Ali Jawad is setting a world record in his body weight

:56:11.:56:16.

category. That puts him in the bronze medal position. Stand-by a

:56:17.:56:28.

roar. This is Micky Yule. The former Royal engineer. He is so up for

:56:29.:56:34.

this. He is in the zone. He needs to do best to get on the podium. It was

:56:35.:56:40.

a gutsy display. Not far-away from the bronze medal and a terrific

:56:41.:56:44.

finale to the lifting Championships in Glasgow.

:56:45.:56:52.

I realise a combination of the Scottie dogs and sipping a shot

:56:53.:56:56.

means I am not coming across as particularly tough. I have a tough

:56:57.:57:03.

guide to speak to, Scotland's medallist in the judo. Myself and

:57:04.:57:12.

some of the Scottish guys went down to support Micky Yule.

:57:13.:57:15.

Unfortunately, he finished in fourth and just outside the medals, but it

:57:16.:57:21.

was inspiring event. You got goose bumps when the guys got onto the

:57:22.:57:28.

bench. It was a fantastic reception. You love competing, but since you

:57:29.:57:33.

won the gold medal, you have been at something different every day. Is

:57:34.:57:38.

that the beauty of it? That is what we decided because we were in the

:57:39.:57:42.

first three days and finish. We said we would support team Scotland as

:57:43.:57:48.

much as possible so we went to the net all, hockey, weightlifting,

:57:49.:57:53.

boxing, wrestling, anywhere we can wear Scottish guys are competing and

:57:54.:57:58.

cheering them on stop there has not been an atmosphere like there was at

:57:59.:58:03.

the Hydro with Charlie and Josh tonight. It was phenomenal. C's post

:58:04.:58:09.

fight interview I have only just heard, but they are superstars now

:58:10.:58:19.

-- Charlie Flynn. Being inspired to take up the sport, have you thought

:58:20.:58:22.

you would not mind giving another sport ago? I would not mind giving

:58:23.:58:29.

it all ago, but I would have my face punched in if I did boxing! Judo is

:58:30.:58:34.

probably the only one I could excel at. It is amazing, creating heroes

:58:35.:58:39.

like Josh and Charlie Flynn and Hannah Miley, but also hundreds of

:58:40.:58:45.

thousands of Scottish children I am sure have just come back from

:58:46.:58:49.

training, thinking I am not sure that training is enough to get me to

:58:50.:58:55.

the top. Or they could be sacked where I am with a gold medal around

:58:56.:59:00.

my neck. We have spent time around the city. I am from Edinburgh.

:59:01.:59:08.

CHEERING. Just walking around the streets of Glasgow, there is such an

:59:09.:59:14.

atmosphere and hopefully it will continue after the Commonwealth

:59:15.:59:16.

Games and people are inspired to take up new sports. Speaking of

:59:17.:59:24.

Edinburgh, we can go to the diving. Tom Daley in the 10m platform.

:59:25.:59:38.

It was a tremendous dive from Hannah Starling. Will that be enough? I

:59:39.:59:47.

think we could be looking at the Commonwealth Games champion. Esther

:59:48.:59:52.

Qin has been rocking it this evening. That was a good dive from

:59:53.:59:59.

the Australian. I do not think it will be good enough. Jennifer Abel.

:00:00.:00:07.

It will not be gold for Canada, it is gold for Australia. What diving

:00:08.:00:17.

from Esther Qin. Hello, Tom Daley! Welcome to the men's 10m platform

:00:18.:00:27.

final. Matt Dixon, his senior debut. What a dive from the 14 year from

:00:28.:00:38.

Plymouth! It is incredible! Come on, judges, that is perfect. Ooi Tze

:00:39.:00:51.

Liang of Malaysian. It is a beauty. This will be close, the pressure is

:00:52.:00:55.

on. Will that be good enough for silver? Very smooth and precise.

:00:56.:01:04.

That is all he can do. He needs to make it count. This is a big

:01:05.:01:09.

demonstration dive for Tom Daley, he needs ten points. Outstanding.

:01:10.:01:17.

Retaining his title that he won in Delhi. He has silenced his critics,

:01:18.:01:22.

a gold medal for Tom Daley. A brilliant performance from Tom

:01:23.:01:34.

Daley, but the most successful by over was Jack Law of England, and he

:01:35.:01:37.

has come from Edinburgh with Chris Mears. Give them a big Wellcome!

:01:38.:02:02.

Thought they were trying to walk up in Synchro! Well done, two gold

:02:03.:02:09.

medals and a silver medal. What did you expect, coming in? It was weird,

:02:10.:02:14.

in Delhi, you expect, coming in? It was weird,

:02:15.:02:18.

Commonwealth Games, it was amazing, such an eye opener. But being here,

:02:19.:02:24.

we have done some competitions here, it is a fantastic diving pool. I

:02:25.:02:29.

wanted to put a massive performance in. To come away with three medals

:02:30.:02:35.

is a dream come true, I am so happy. We talk about the effect of another

:02:36.:02:41.

athlete, like Beth twiddle in gymnastics or Tom Daley in diving.

:02:42.:02:45.

It puts more attention on your sport, and increases the pressure.

:02:46.:02:52.

Definitely. Tom has brought a lot of social media to diving. Is that a

:02:53.:02:57.

good thing? Definitely, bring it on! When we get results like this,

:02:58.:03:04.

we can get recognised. Chris, you were in the film that Tom did on the

:03:05.:03:11.

page. Were you in it as well? If you have not seen it, you have to look

:03:12.:03:16.

it up! It is quite later night, you can go into some detail, what

:03:17.:03:25.

happened in 2009? It was the youth Olympic Games in Australia, I was

:03:26.:03:33.

feeling pretty good, a pretty good chance of a medal, I was training

:03:34.:03:39.

really hard, I did not realise I had glandular fever. You get lands in

:03:40.:03:45.

your throat and in your stomach. My glands in my stomach was swollen,

:03:46.:03:49.

which put pressure on my spleen, which ruptured on the day of my

:03:50.:03:57.

competition, which is not ideal. I ended up in hospital with a 5%

:03:58.:04:01.

chance of surviving the operation. It is not what you want to hear,

:04:02.:04:06.

really! Would you survived, and here you are as a Commonwealth champion!

:04:07.:04:13.

And that is worth a round of applause! Thank you for coming over

:04:14.:04:18.

from Edinburgh, we really appreciated. We have time to fit in

:04:19.:04:23.

the hockey, a dramatic penalty shoot out for England's women yesterday,

:04:24.:04:32.

and they were on the brink of an Australian defeat.

:04:33.:04:38.

Bring it on, it is the gold medal match. An open goal miss. They are

:04:39.:04:51.

in a fight, Australia, and at the moment it is not one that they are

:04:52.:04:59.

winning. She goes across the face, to the relief of the English. It is

:05:00.:05:03.

in! It is 1-0 to England! It is a free chance to Australia. It

:05:04.:05:22.

is hard in the mouth stuff. She does really well. It is in! With 19

:05:23.:05:30.

seconds on the clock! We are going for a shoot out. In it goes, what a

:05:31.:05:35.

bullet. Another missed by England. She missed that. That is not even

:05:36.:05:55.

close. My goodness, Australia have clinched

:05:56.:06:19.

the gold medal. So much kudos for England. The game has been taken

:06:20.:06:22.

from under their noses. A silver medal. A gold for

:06:23.:06:25.

Australia. But England's gold-medal hole is a

:06:26.:06:39.

record, and on course to finish top of the medal table for the first

:06:40.:06:45.

time since 1986. Northern Ireland got their first gold medals of the

:06:46.:06:49.

games in the boxing. 11 gold medals up for grabs tomorrow. Lizzie

:06:50.:06:55.

Armistead and Geraint Thomas in the cycling tomorrow.

:06:56.:07:03.

At Hampden Park, the athletics closed with the relay, which meant

:07:04.:07:11.

the big appearance from Usain Bolt. You may have seen that he posed for

:07:12.:07:15.

cell fees all over the place, signing autographs. There is a

:07:16.:07:25.

successful one. This one, he has it the wrong way round, so he got an

:07:26.:07:31.

empty stadium. Let and on some positives. Sharon has tweeted, my

:07:32.:07:38.

man says the standout is for the people and the city of close care. I

:07:39.:07:46.

do not know what to do now that the Commonwealth Games are over. Another

:07:47.:07:50.

person says, so interest with Hampden Park as an athletics venue,

:07:51.:07:56.

and so much love for Jo Pavey. Neill says, it is good to see that England

:07:57.:08:03.

have an unassailable lead over Australia in the medal table. That

:08:04.:08:06.

is the end of Tonight At The Games. The motto has been people make us

:08:07.:08:12.

go, and you have made it, the athletes, the audience and The

:08:13.:08:15.

Federation. Goodbye.

:08:16.:08:20.
