:01:35. > :01:38.look more interested than he was last night. Hello and welcome to

:01:39. > :01:42.Today At The Games. We have our lovely studio audience again. We

:01:43. > :01:48.also have a massive audience outside. I can't believe we are only

:01:49. > :01:57.on our second night, and they are trying to get in. We have got loads

:01:58. > :02:01.on the show for you tonight. That includes rhythmic gymnastics,

:02:02. > :02:09.shooting, boxing and netball. And you do. -- judo. I like to do

:02:10. > :02:13.motions for each of those. You should have seen me in Russia,

:02:14. > :02:20.speaking Russian, going, have you come from the curling? Let's move

:02:21. > :02:25.on. We will be joined by a man who was king of the pool. Ian Thorpe

:02:26. > :02:29.will be here. And a woman who without question was Queen of the

:02:30. > :02:34.velodrome, Victoria and Orton will be here as well. And, this is

:02:35. > :02:40.exciting, everybody's favourite South African dad, Chad Le Clos' dad

:02:41. > :02:44.Bert le Clos, we will have a special feature from him. We have got

:02:45. > :02:50.medallist and proud fathers. Before we move on, we have to show you

:02:51. > :03:03.prove that we have the power as well as the mime actions. We have our

:03:04. > :03:08.band here, the Federation! We want you to get involved as well, and we

:03:09. > :03:11.promise that we will read out some of the questions and comments you

:03:12. > :03:17.send us on social media. #TonightAtTheGames to get in touch

:03:18. > :03:21.with us. Earlier, I had a tweaked saying, I love judo. More please.

:03:22. > :03:42.Your wish is our command. Sarah Clarke, so much experience. Is

:03:43. > :03:55.she going to take it to the ground? This is the transition now. The

:03:56. > :04:03.crowd are starting to go mad. The armies out straight. Sarah Clarke

:04:04. > :04:12.wins the gold medal. It is Scotland who will celebrate.

:04:13. > :04:28.Danny Williams, representing England. Williams goes into the

:04:29. > :04:37.lead. Danny Williams has got the arm out: But the seconds ticking away.

:04:38. > :04:45.Four seconds left on the clock. Danny Williams gets up slowly. Needs

:04:46. > :04:54.to stand his ground. And it is all over. Danny Williams wins the gold

:04:55. > :05:01.medal for England. He is a happy boy.

:05:02. > :05:10.Megan Fletcher, of England, looking so determined.

:05:11. > :05:21.Here we go. Gets the term. Megan Fletcher has De Villiers. De

:05:22. > :05:27.Villiers was always going to get punished. She flopped once too

:05:28. > :05:35.often, and you can't do that with Megan Fletcher. The seconds are

:05:36. > :05:41.ticking away. Just got to hold for 20 seconds, and it is all over.

:05:42. > :05:48.Credit to Megan Fletcher, she is the Commonwealth Games champion.

:05:49. > :06:04.Third penalty to Tom Reed. Lindsay should smell like now. Just one

:06:05. > :06:16.penalty of a gold medal. Livesey on top. And it is all over. Livesey

:06:17. > :06:18.gets the gold medal. Tom Reed could not do anything about it. Gold and

:06:19. > :06:28.silver for England. It is the first time judo has been

:06:29. > :06:35.back in the Commonwealth Games since 2002. Safe to say it is back with a

:06:36. > :06:56.bang. Ladies and gentlemen, he's welcome four winners in the judo!

:06:57. > :07:12.Danny Williams, Megan Fletcher, Owen Livesey and Sarah Clarke! We wanted

:07:13. > :07:16.to shake your hands individually, but last night, with so many

:07:17. > :07:23.people, we got into such a pickle that we nearly fell over them.

:07:24. > :07:27.Congratulations to you all. Sarah, let me start with you. Am I right in

:07:28. > :07:38.thinking you came to Scotland as an 18-year-old and just fell in love

:07:39. > :07:42.with the place? Yes. I came as a junior to a training session, and

:07:43. > :07:54.then came back the following week and stayed. How much of a reception

:07:55. > :07:57.did you get today? It was unbelievable. I have never felt

:07:58. > :08:03.anything like that before. When you went out there, you felt, this is

:08:04. > :08:10.not even for me, this is for all of those guys out there. Your brother

:08:11. > :08:14.had to withdraw, didn't he? And Danny was the beneficiary of that.

:08:15. > :08:20.But because your brother withdrew, did you feel extra pressure to do it

:08:21. > :08:29.for the family? I don't think it was extra pressure. Danny did well

:08:30. > :08:33.today. It was just one of those situations where I was glad I

:08:34. > :08:41.managed to win a gold for my family. Megan, you are geography teacher.

:08:42. > :08:43.Have you seen my map? Largest landmass that is not part of the

:08:44. > :08:54.Commonwealth is the Russian Federation. They are not in it. We

:08:55. > :09:03.need to rehearse that Federation gaffe. You use the Commonwealth

:09:04. > :09:06.Games to teach geography? It has been a big thing at school at the

:09:07. > :09:14.moment. They have been doing loads of stuff about it. I might have a

:09:15. > :09:18.lesson from you later. She really will. You could be stuck with that

:09:19. > :09:20.map until two in the morning. I said you were a late call-up because of

:09:21. > :09:29.an's withdrawal. The story about you were a late call-up because of

:09:30. > :09:33.Yeah, I was getting stuck into a big meal at the time. Which was? Just a

:09:34. > :09:43.spaghetti bolognese, with some meal at the time. Which was? Just a

:09:44. > :09:48.garlic bread. So swiftly put that to the side and

:09:49. > :09:49.garlic bread. So swiftly put that to food went to one side and you went

:09:50. > :09:54.to the gym. Yeah, with food went to one side and you went

:09:55. > :09:58.weight controlled sport, I had a bit of an

:09:59. > :10:02.weight controlled sport, I had a bit overweight? Just slightly. How much

:10:03. > :10:08.did you have to lose in the last couple of weeks? A fair bit. How

:10:09. > :10:16.much have you eaten since your gold medal has been around your neck?

:10:17. > :10:25.Everything. Owen, you are sporting a bit of a bash. Yes, but that is not

:10:26. > :10:35.from today. It is just an injury I got in training. It is not serious.

:10:36. > :10:44.He is a rugby league player. For them, anything is fine. You just

:10:45. > :10:52.carry on. So you were at Saints? As a junior. And then went to judo, but

:10:53. > :10:58.then went back to rugby league? I played rugby for 12 months, went to

:10:59. > :11:08.Widnes Vikings rugby league from St Helens. I played reserve rugby there

:11:09. > :11:13.for eight months. What is tougher, judo or rugby league? Completely

:11:14. > :11:21.different. The fitness is completely different. You take knocks in both.

:11:22. > :11:24.As is evident. Let me take you to see some more medallists, because

:11:25. > :11:29.the golds were not the only metals that were won today. We have four

:11:30. > :11:49.more medallists here. Let's give them a round of applause. There

:11:50. > :11:55.could be a proposal coming here. Firstly, you lost to your roommate.

:11:56. > :12:01.I did. It will be interesting going back to the room tonight. We knew

:12:02. > :12:05.that could be the situation. The aim was that we both got to the final.

:12:06. > :12:10.As far as the team goes, it was job done. Then it became more of an

:12:11. > :12:16.individual thing. Has it been weird, being roommates and knowing you

:12:17. > :12:20.could meet? It hasn't been. It could have been, but we get on well. With

:12:21. > :12:25.different people, there can be more tension. But we knew it could be the

:12:26. > :12:30.case months ago when the selections came out, so from them, we were

:12:31. > :12:34.preparing for it. It was just something we had to get on with. It

:12:35. > :12:38.is an individual sport, but we are here as a team to stop I am very

:12:39. > :12:46.happy that it was gold and silver for England. Congratulations. Sally,

:12:47. > :12:52.I am going to come to you with a bronze medal. What will this do for

:12:53. > :12:55.you, moving forward? I think it will give me confidence. I am going onto

:12:56. > :12:58.the World Championships at the end of August, so I will take what I

:12:59. > :13:05.have learnt today on how to cope with pressure. What will this do for

:13:06. > :13:10.the sport? Over the last few days, the profile has been huge because of

:13:11. > :13:14.what you guys have been doing. A lot more people are interested in judo

:13:15. > :13:20.now compared to two years ago. More people want to know more about the

:13:21. > :13:31.sport. Let me come to faith and Jemima. Faith, in your biography,

:13:32. > :13:35.you said you are patriotic. Did you feel the patriotism today?

:13:36. > :13:42.Absolutely. The crowd were amazing, and the stadium is overwhelming. I

:13:43. > :13:47.had goose bumps all day, and that was the same for the whole team. It

:13:48. > :13:54.was unbelievable. Jemima, we heard about Danny's call-up. Your call-up

:13:55. > :13:58.involved your mum and a very early wake-up call? I found out on Tuesday

:13:59. > :14:03.morning that I would be competing. I'm shook me awake at 6:30am and

:14:04. > :14:10.said, do you want to fight at the compost games? And I rolled over and

:14:11. > :14:17.went back to sleep. And then said, I thought, my mum has lost the plot.

:14:18. > :14:20.Did you go back to sleep? No, I had to wake up and go for a run to lose

:14:21. > :14:29.some weight. Congratulations to all our medallists. I might have a treat

:14:30. > :14:37.for you. Our cocktail man is here tonight, making cocktails for our

:14:38. > :14:42.eight judokas. You have got a judo cocktail. And in there is what?

:14:43. > :14:49.Spiced rum, and you add mint, fresh lime, soda water. If you want a

:14:50. > :14:57.twist, a bit of whiskey for the Scots. I will be honest with you, it

:14:58. > :15:02.sounds revolting at the moment, but I am sure we will give it a try.

:15:03. > :15:06.There have been known gold medals on offer so far at the judo and they

:15:07. > :15:10.have all been won by England and Scotland. There are five more

:15:11. > :15:14.tomorrow and there is a chance of a clean sweep for the home nations.

:15:15. > :15:20.Well done so far and good luck for tomorrow. Let's mention all the

:15:21. > :15:25.people outside who have not been able to get into the studio. The

:15:26. > :15:31.good news is that if you come to this area of Glasgow, we are on the

:15:32. > :15:34.banks of the Clyde. BBC at the Quay have got their own festival. You can

:15:35. > :15:40.bring the children and have a good time. There are life programmes on

:15:41. > :15:54.the stage and Lee McKenzie has been finding out more.

:15:55. > :16:05.Are you going to tell us who picks up the phone to who? That has been

:16:06. > :16:09.asked twice now. This is like being in front of people. Scotland has

:16:10. > :16:18.always had its very own sense of humour and two men who represent

:16:19. > :16:25.that or in front of me. What is it like having the Glasgow Commonwealth

:16:26. > :16:29.Games on your doorstep? People playing bagpipes and all the rest of

:16:30. > :16:33.it, the difference is we play the bagpipes in tune! What's your

:16:34. > :16:40.highlight so far? The haul of ten medals on the first day I'm not sure

:16:41. > :16:44.how many we got today. I gather the haul of medals was more than we won

:16:45. > :16:50.in 1986. That's got to be impressive. We mean business. We do.

:16:51. > :16:57.Bring it on. I'm worried about this sunshine. People are going to be

:16:58. > :17:04.watching this, clansling their holidays abroad and coming to the

:17:05. > :17:11.kofta del -- Costa del glag. It rains here. The rain is lovely here,

:17:12. > :17:12.it's refreshing. And you can drink out of the taps here. Straight out

:17:13. > :17:23.of the taps. Glasgow patter, do you think the

:17:24. > :17:34.athletes and those visiting are getting this? Yeah they have to pick

:17:35. > :17:38.up some words. Greetin that's one of them. They should try to catch up.

:17:39. > :17:42.They should realise that this is the place to be, at all times, not just

:17:43. > :17:48.during the Thank you Commonwealth. Very much.

:17:49. > :17:53.A tweet from Lindsay Lewis, "What a games so far. So proud of team

:17:54. > :17:59.Scotland and all the home nations." Keep the comments coming. As Claire

:18:00. > :18:05.said just at the top of the show, she keeps inventing symbols to

:18:06. > :18:11.introduce sports. That was for rhythmic gymnastics. We sent

:18:12. > :18:17.Katherine Granger along for rhythmic gymnastics.

:18:18. > :18:20.I'm in the stunning Hydroto see the final of the all-round rhythmic

:18:21. > :18:25.gymnastics. There are 16 athletes competing in all four disciplines.

:18:26. > :18:29.The hoop, the ball, the crush and the ribbon -- club and the ribbon to

:18:30. > :18:33.see who could be crowned champion. After their team silver yesterday

:18:34. > :18:40.the two representatives of Welsh gymnastics were here and brimming

:18:41. > :18:50.with confidence. Lovely combination of pivots. Lovely

:18:51. > :18:54.extension. Super handling. Oh, beautifully expressive work. Two

:18:55. > :19:01.events down and Frankie is well placed for the medals. Just the

:19:02. > :19:05.ribbon and club to go. So wonderfully precise with those

:19:06. > :19:13.pirouettes. Laura had a great start to joining Frankie in the top three.

:19:14. > :19:18.A lovely different performance. So the pressure is mounting for

:19:19. > :19:25.Francesca Jones. She needs to keep that focus. Such a different style.

:19:26. > :19:34.Very sharp. So difficult. Both clubs high in the air. It's looking

:19:35. > :19:37.fantastic for Wales. Frankie is in second position, Laura in third. We

:19:38. > :19:41.turn to the fourth and final discipline, the ribbon, to decide

:19:42. > :19:51.those medals. Frankie Jones for Wales. This has to be a perfect

:19:52. > :19:55.routine. Oh, fantastic! What a great day for Frankie Jones. Four superb

:19:56. > :20:01.routines. She's done everything she can now.

:20:02. > :20:12.Really clean routine. There's a chance of a medal. Lovely elevation.

:20:13. > :20:17.What a fantastic day for Laura as well. It looks as if Frankie and

:20:18. > :20:23.Laura will be in the medal positions. There's a long wait for

:20:24. > :20:29.the 13 other competitors to be sure. There it is. 14. 8, a massive score.

:20:30. > :20:37.It gives her the all-around Gold Medal. The results are in. The

:20:38. > :20:43.Canadian was too hot to handle for everyone today. A well deserved

:20:44. > :20:47.silver and bronze for team Wales Frankie Jones and Laura Halford

:20:48. > :20:51.bring in great results. Beyond my wildest dreams. I can't even believe

:20:52. > :20:55.it. I didn't really think that an individual medal would be realistic

:20:56. > :21:00.for me. But to have come and proved myself, just makes it even better. I

:21:01. > :21:03.just never even imagined that we would be able to do what we've done

:21:04. > :21:09.the last two days. So proud of my team and me. A great day for team

:21:10. > :21:13.Wales. Two really important medals and so well deserved. It was my

:21:14. > :21:17.first experience of rhythmic gymnastics and I've loved it. I've

:21:18. > :21:21.been blown away, not just by the grace and elegance and style of

:21:22. > :21:24.those athletes, but up close, you see just what athletic ability they

:21:25. > :21:29.have. They have an agility and flexibility I can only dream of. So

:21:30. > :21:33.right now, I'm off to see if I can find a ball, a hoop or a ribbon to

:21:34. > :21:37.try it myself. I might just go clubbing. I said to Katherine last

:21:38. > :21:47.night, or this morning, you've got said, oh, I will. She didn't.

:21:48. > :21:49.Frankie's dad Colin is with me now. Well done on the achievements of

:21:50. > :21:53.your daughter and what she did today, but also carrying the flag

:21:54. > :21:56.for Wales. Fantastic. Yes, amazing, absolutely brilliant. I didn't think

:21:57. > :22:00.it could have got better than Wednesday night, but it did today.

:22:01. > :22:08.You said she started at five with artistic. Artist being at five then

:22:09. > :22:11.moved to rhythmic at ten. She has been training fulltime from 16 and

:22:12. > :22:17.she's now 23. She is amazing. I think she's only the third gymnast

:22:18. > :22:21.ever to win multimedals at Commonwealth Games. This is her

:22:22. > :22:28.third today. So we're hoping tomorrow will go well as well.

:22:29. > :22:33.What's tomorrow then? Tomorrow is the individual apparatus, so medals,

:22:34. > :22:37.four more up for grabs. It's a strong Welsh team with Laura as

:22:38. > :22:41.well. You're getting massive supportment Laura was British

:22:42. > :22:45.champion. Frankie was runner up this year. She's been British champion

:22:46. > :22:48.six times in the past. She's happy Do you today. Understand everything

:22:49. > :22:54.that's going on there, are you an expert, do you mark it yourself? No.

:22:55. > :22:58.I once downloaded the technical requirements and it ran to about 85

:22:59. > :23:05.pages. I got to page two and gave up. Did Do you sit there and clap

:23:06. > :23:08.and cheer? Ism know a little bit -- I know a little bit, but not enough.

:23:09. > :23:12.You know that your daughter is pretty good at it. I know she's the

:23:13. > :23:16.best. The best I've ever Thank you seen. So much for coming in tonight.

:23:17. > :23:17.It's my pleasure, thank you. All right, thanks Colin.

:23:18. > :23:30.APPLAUSE Thank you very much to Colin. We

:23:31. > :23:35.will have some more proud fathers later on in the show. It's been

:23:36. > :23:38.another busy day at the Sir Chris Hoy velodrome. In the middle of it

:23:39. > :23:52.all was Gill Douglas. With the temperature soaring

:23:53. > :23:57.outside, it's pretty hot here in the velodrome, which means the track is

:23:58. > :24:02.riding very fast. Last night was all about team work. Tonight, we focus

:24:03. > :24:06.on individual events with Joanna Rowsell and Jason Kenny Gold

:24:07. > :24:09.Medallists in London two years ago, hoping to add Commonwealth medals to

:24:10. > :24:13.their collections. Rowsell is clearly in good form. She qualified

:24:14. > :24:20.with a new Commonwealth Games record. Joanna Rowsell half a second

:24:21. > :24:25.up. When she crosses the line now, there will be four laps to go. The

:24:26. > :24:31.lead is still with England. Joanna Rowsell, one final lap to glory. One

:24:32. > :24:35.final lap to gold. She's got the better of Edmondson here. The crowd

:24:36. > :24:40.are on their feet. Joanna Rowsell wins gold for England in the women's

:24:41. > :24:42.individual pursuit. A wonderful reception for you there.

:24:43. > :24:47.Congratulations. It's been an amazing year for you. Yeah, it has.

:24:48. > :24:52.I won the World Championships individual pursuit in February. This

:24:53. > :24:57.is the one I really wanted. It's the event that I was spotted for when I

:24:58. > :25:00.first started. It means a lot to me. Fantastic to win here today.

:25:01. > :25:16.Absolutely over the Another athlete moon. Having a good start to the

:25:17. > :25:21.Games is Australia's Jack Bobridge. Edmondson leading the way so far. A

:25:22. > :25:29.lap-and-a-half from the finishing line now and you can see there, the

:25:30. > :25:38.clear advantage he has. He successfully defends the individual

:25:39. > :25:42.pursuit title. In the men's paracycling kilo time trial, a blind

:25:43. > :25:47.or partially sighted rider is accompanied by a fully sighted

:25:48. > :25:54.pilot. They race against the clock. Kieran Modra and Jason Niblett were

:25:55. > :26:00.in the Gold Medal position P Neil Fachie and Craig MacLean make it

:26:01. > :26:03.gold? The race for gold is on now. Powering around the bottom of the

:26:04. > :26:13.track, already over three quarters of a second up. The roar is quite

:26:14. > :26:19.incredible inside here now. Up towards the line, it's gold for

:26:20. > :26:21.Scotland! Gold for Neil Fachie and the Paralympic champion, the world

:26:22. > :26:34.champion is now the Commonwealth champion. Welsh pair imagine --

:26:35. > :26:38.Matthew ellist and Williams -- Ellis. That's the first time I've

:26:39. > :26:42.raced for Scotland and so to be on top of the podium as well in front

:26:43. > :26:47.of a home crowd, it's hard not to get teary eyed. There was still time

:26:48. > :26:50.for another gold as Jason Kenny faced Sam Webster in the men's

:26:51. > :26:55.sprint final. It's the best of three races. After losing the first Ken

:26:56. > :27:03.yip needed to win.er -- Kenny needed to win. Full gas, full bore, can he

:27:04. > :27:06.draw level? Yes he can. Gold was still on for the Englishman. It was

:27:07. > :27:12.all to play for in the third and final race. It's a big gap. Can he

:27:13. > :27:15.get past the kiwi now. Or will it be Webster's title. It's on the line

:27:16. > :27:19.and it's going to be Webster who takes it. It's gold for New Zealand

:27:20. > :27:25.and Jason Kenny just couldn't quite close the gap. Another fantastic day

:27:26. > :27:29.of action here in the velodrome. Golden girl Jo Rowsell adding the

:27:30. > :27:35.Commonwealth tight toll her long list after chee.s. No question --

:27:36. > :27:42.achievements. No question to what razed the roof here when Neil Fachie

:27:43. > :27:47.and MacLean took gold. Today was fantastic in the velodrome. And to

:27:48. > :27:49.discuss it with us double Olympic champion, Commonwealth champion,

:27:50. > :27:51.discuss it with us double Olympic champion, Commonwealth Victoria

:27:52. > :27:52.pendle ton. -- Pendleton.

:27:53. > :28:24.APPLAUSE We were there, together for 5 Live

:28:25. > :28:29.in the velodrome. The atmosphere, particularly when Fachie and MacLean

:28:30. > :28:35.won that gold, fantastic. It was. So great to see the Paralympic sports

:28:36. > :28:39.getting that great reception. Having been on a tandem, it is terrifying.

:28:40. > :28:45.I wouldn't want to pilot a You've had tandem. A go attiting? --

:28:46. > :28:49.piloting? Yeah the stoker. The size of me means I will always be a

:28:50. > :28:54.stoker, I'm on the back. Sorry the size of you means that you... I'd be

:28:55. > :28:57.on the back. What does stoker mean? The person on the back, the

:28:58. > :29:02.powerhouse on the back. Why is it stoker? It's a pilot and a stoker, I

:29:03. > :29:08.don't know. You'd think that the stoker was like, stoke it up, IE be

:29:09. > :29:14.the power. It is the power, but it's packaged in a small powerful way. I

:29:15. > :29:18.get it now. Craig MacLean's power is truly, truly astonishing.

:29:19. > :29:24.Absolutely. For a long while, he was our man one in Team GB. He led Chris

:29:25. > :29:28.Hoy out in many successful team sprints. He is an expert at a

:29:29. > :29:39.standing Just to start. Give an indication of his power, he clocked

:29:40. > :29:42.on ape stationary bike, 142mph. That was a proper oohhh. How is that

:29:43. > :29:47.possible? He should go on the M 74. was a proper oohhh. How is that

:29:48. > :29:51.I hear that's the best training route of all. They all train

:29:52. > :29:55.together, don't they? Absolutely, which is great. It's great for us. I

:29:56. > :29:57.actually, I have an affinity with Neil, I have to say. We are perhaps

:29:58. > :30:02.the two smallest guys that used Neil, I have to say. We are perhaps

:30:03. > :30:08.train in the gym together. We Will Rock You look a -- we are small, but

:30:09. > :30:11.we're very powerful. He's He real great. Ly went for it. And Billy

:30:12. > :30:20.Connelly was there. Fabulous. I'm loving the chimp by the way on the

:30:21. > :30:26.helmet, the angry chimp. I'd love to know the It must story. Be from the

:30:27. > :30:31.chimp para-Dom. You made that -- paradox. You made that bobbing a

:30:32. > :30:36.best seller -- book a best seller. I love those guys. It was an emotional

:30:37. > :30:40.moment. It really was. Sir Chris Hoy took himself away from the rest of

:30:41. > :30:45.the BBC team and stood at the front of his podium and belted out Flower

:30:46. > :30:49.of Scotland in his own velodrome in honour of those two. The day was

:30:50. > :30:52.great for England as well, silver for Jason Kenny, who we saw

:30:53. > :30:57.immediately throw up actually, which wasn't as good. Look, look. He's

:30:58. > :31:02.throwing up right there. That highlighted just the effort he put

:31:03. > :31:05.it in his final heat. Then Jo Rowsell's gold. Jason qualified

:31:06. > :31:09.tenth in the sprint, which for him is unusual. He hasn't had a great

:31:10. > :31:11.time trial performance since the Olympics, in all He's been fairness.

:31:12. > :31:15.Trying to bulk up. Yeah, Olympics, in all He's been fairness.

:31:16. > :31:19.takes time. I sacrificed a whole season to put some muscle mass on

:31:20. > :31:21.pre-Olympics. I said, guys, I don't think I'm

:31:22. > :31:22.pre-Olympics. I said, guys, I don't year, but I need to get strong.

:31:23. > :31:28.Doing both at the same time, year, but I need to get strong.

:31:29. > :31:40.has great tactical ability. He's just doesn't work. So, he knew

:31:41. > :31:45.has great tactical ability. He's at demonstrating how to keep your

:31:46. > :31:48.opponent in sight. His visual, like how he locks contact, locks onto his

:31:49. > :31:50.opponent in sight. His visual, like incredible. It doesn't faze him.

:31:51. > :31:56.opponent in sight. His visual, like He's very calm. He makes great

:31:57. > :31:58.decisions. He made great decisions until the last race. From what

:31:59. > :31:59.decisions. He made great decisions you're saying great effort to win a

:32:00. > :32:04.Silver Medal given you're saying great effort to win a

:32:05. > :32:11.regime. Jo Rowsell. Amazing. Heroine. Tect book performance. She

:32:12. > :32:17.went into the qualifying ride and just rode like a metronome. She was

:32:18. > :32:17.went into the qualifying ride and exactly on pace. Her

:32:18. > :32:21.went into the qualifying ride and going, you're there, you're exactly

:32:22. > :32:30.on it. We knew she was going to go into the final in a strong position.

:32:31. > :32:33.On And this would be your first major event without competing.

:32:34. > :32:37.On And this would be your first do you feel about that, Queen of the

:32:38. > :32:40.On And this would be your first velodrome? I was like, I love

:32:41. > :32:46.watching live sport and it is great to know the guys that are riding and

:32:47. > :32:51.cheer them on. But I am still trying to peddle underneath the desk! But I

:32:52. > :32:58.don't need the stress. I see the guys before they go on the track and

:32:59. > :33:01.I don't want to do that again. I am listening to you on the radio in the

:33:02. > :33:11.mornings and then seeing you on the telly, and you are doing a brilliant

:33:12. > :33:20.job. You and Becky Adlington. Going from your respective sports to doing

:33:21. > :33:27.this. Also, you have a mind for the cycling. -- a mime for the cycling.

:33:28. > :33:34.Let's look at what else has happened at the Commonwealth Games.

:33:35. > :33:40.Nigeria picked up their first gold of these games, courtesy of Chika

:33:41. > :33:47.Amalaha in the 53 kilograms division of the women's weightlifting.

:33:48. > :33:50.Scotland's women got their Commonwealth campaign off to a

:33:51. > :33:58.winning start, beating Malaysia 2-0 this afternoon. But Wales lost 9-0

:33:59. > :34:04.against favourites Australia. In the men's hockey, Wales and Scotland

:34:05. > :34:08.both lost. In netball, England began with a 65-25 win over Wales, who

:34:09. > :34:21.have now lost both their matches. Scotland beat St Lucia 58-30.

:34:22. > :34:24.Let's talk about the netball. I have two proud fathers with me, two

:34:25. > :34:31.former professional sportsmen as well. Former rugby captain and

:34:32. > :34:35.British Lion David Sole, and former Stockport and Birmingham striker

:34:36. > :34:42.Kevin Francis. Proud fathers, both of them. David, your daughter Gemma

:34:43. > :34:47.is in the Scottish netball team. Yes, she plays goal shooter for the

:34:48. > :34:52.Scottish netball team and they came away with a terrific victory this

:34:53. > :34:57.afternoon against St Lucia. It was their Commonwealth debut today, and

:34:58. > :35:06.she scored five? Something like that. What is it like watching her

:35:07. > :35:12.play international sport, when you have played it yourself? I always

:35:13. > :35:16.get a sense that my mum and dad were proud of me, but I never appreciated

:35:17. > :35:20.just how proud they would have been. Leading a side out at Murrayfield to

:35:21. > :35:27.beat England was a real thrill. Don't rub it in. It did not happen

:35:28. > :35:34.often. But knowing how they must have felt at that moment is a

:35:35. > :35:40.wonderful gift to have given them, and my daughter is giving it back to

:35:41. > :35:47.me now. Do you see it as a gift as well? It is. It is overwhelming when

:35:48. > :35:51.you are there. You see them singing the national anthem, and brings home

:35:52. > :35:55.everything you have done in your career. But the finest thing you

:35:56. > :35:59.have done is have a child who can play netball like that. She went to

:36:00. > :36:03.New Zealand for year to develop her career, and now she has come back?

:36:04. > :36:09.Yes, she spent a year in Christchurch. Said she enjoyed it.

:36:10. > :36:14.She has played against most of the girls she will meet over the next

:36:15. > :36:22.ten days. It is Australia tomorrow for England. It is. It will be

:36:23. > :36:25.interesting. You have said proud words about Stacey. I don't know if

:36:26. > :36:30.you saw that week she sent a few moments ago. She said, I hope my

:36:31. > :36:41.father sends my love to the show when he is on Today At The Games. #

:36:42. > :36:47.Fame Hogg. I am just riding her coat tails now. I had fun watching you

:36:48. > :36:52.both. It is a fantastic achievement, and I am sure you will enjoy every

:36:53. > :36:55.moment. I hope the rest of the tournament goes well. We have a

:36:56. > :36:58.tough match tomorrow against New Zealand, but it is a great

:36:59. > :37:03.experience, particularly at home games. All the venues, the

:37:04. > :37:09.atmosphere has been phenomenal. It shows what a city Glasgow is. Enjoy

:37:10. > :37:20.the rest of the netball tournament, Kevin Francis and David Sole.

:37:21. > :37:23.Talking of social media, #TonightAtTheGames to get in touch.

:37:24. > :37:29.Lindsay Lewis says, clearly not going to get anything done for ten

:37:30. > :37:34.days. Another says, we are clearly epic at judo. Now, guess what sport

:37:35. > :37:40.this is. Yes, let's have oxen with Nihal. -- boxing.

:37:41. > :37:44.Boxing is at the heart of the Commonwealth Games, and it has

:37:45. > :37:49.launched some of the sport's biggest names including Lennox Lewis, Barry

:37:50. > :37:54.McGuigan and Richie Woodhall. Today is the first day of the competition

:37:55. > :37:58.in the SECC, and we are going to find out who are the next generation

:37:59. > :38:08.of great British boxing superstars. The legend, Mr Barry McGuigan. You

:38:09. > :38:12.say it is the biggest moment of your life, winning the Commonwealth gold.

:38:13. > :38:16.How did it change your life? That was the biggest highlight of my

:38:17. > :38:21.life, and that is what these kids are all going through, the chance to

:38:22. > :38:26.have a bigger platform and go on to bigger things, the Olympics, or turn

:38:27. > :38:30.professional. They all have a chance of really making a name for

:38:31. > :38:38.themselves. I am joined by a bona fide legend of boxing commentating,

:38:39. > :38:42.Mr Jim Neilly and also a Commonwealth gold medal winner

:38:43. > :38:47.himself, Richie Woodhall. 13 golds to be won. Of those, how many will

:38:48. > :38:54.be freed up amongst the home nations? I think they will take a

:38:55. > :38:59.fair few. They have strength and depth in each country, England,

:39:00. > :39:04.Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. I think the home nations

:39:05. > :39:10.will take five or six gold medals easily. But is what the experts

:39:11. > :39:29.think. But the time for talking is over. It is time for the action.

:39:30. > :39:33.Unanimous win by Michael Conlon. Well deserved, but he did not come

:39:34. > :40:04.away unscathed. Listen to the biggest roar of the

:40:05. > :40:10.day. Benson's Commonwealth tournament comes to an end. Joe

:40:11. > :40:26.Joyce, representing England. It has been a successful day for the

:40:27. > :40:32.home nations in the boxing ring, and plenty of talent on display. There

:40:33. > :40:36.is still a long way to go, but they are all one step closer to getting

:40:37. > :40:42.their hands on one of those very precious gold medals.

:40:43. > :40:45.The biggest upset of the night was in the men's flyweight. Welshman and

:40:46. > :40:51.world number one Andrew Selby lost to Scotland's Reese McFadden, but he

:40:52. > :40:57.had four warnings for his gumshield, which kept coming out. So that

:40:58. > :41:03.cannot have helped his concentration and was clearly another dent to

:41:04. > :41:06.Welsh medal hope this. Thank you to Beth for getting into it and

:41:07. > :41:15.saying, proud fathers are one of the best things about international wart

:41:16. > :41:19.on the telly. It is true. Now I am heading over to Ollie, because we

:41:20. > :41:23.set him a challenge yesterday to make contact with somebody from each

:41:24. > :41:27.of the 71 nations and territories. How did you get on?

:41:28. > :41:33.of the 71 nations and territories. Started at the weightlifting, where

:41:34. > :41:41.I was ticking off Australia. I have moved myself to Australia. I found a

:41:42. > :41:46.26-year-old weightlifter, and his dad is Cambodian. He lost relatives

:41:47. > :41:49.during the rule of Pol Pot in Cambodia. The family moved to

:41:50. > :42:08.Australia. He got into the weightlifting team. He

:42:09. > :42:16.You had a lot of emotion going on in there. How do you keep a lid on it

:42:17. > :42:22.when you are actually lifting? I left, I put it down and then it is

:42:23. > :42:26.party time. Welcome to Scotstoun. I came here for table tennis but have

:42:27. > :42:32.been sidetracked by squash, because we have Sri Lanka, England and the

:42:33. > :42:39.whole England team. I am from India. Hello, I am from Sri Lanka. Who

:42:40. > :42:49.won? I won. Here are the England Squash team, my 14th member of the

:42:50. > :42:56.71 club. Is that it? I am trying! What other countries did you find?

:42:57. > :43:02.Botswana. Thank you to the judoka from Botswana. Then there were the

:43:03. > :43:08.Solomon Islands. As I say, Sri Lanka and India. England and Wales,

:43:09. > :43:13.Solomon Islands. As I say, Sri Lanka Zambia, we say congratulations to

:43:14. > :43:22.the person who got a bronze in the 81 kilograms category today. And you

:43:23. > :43:27.will continue tomorrow. Ideally, seven or eight. Lindsay Lewis says,

:43:28. > :43:30.what a game so far. So proud of team Scotland and all the home nations.

:43:31. > :43:35.Claire says, who knew the Scots could swim? Hannah Miley and Ross

:43:36. > :43:45.Murdoch yesterday, and there was more today. Hannah Miley, looking

:43:46. > :43:49.like she is set for this. Good, more today. Hannah Miley, looking

:43:50. > :43:55.clean start, the final of more today. Hannah Miley, looking

:43:56. > :44:00.women's 400m individual medley. It is faster than Hannah Miley has ever

:44:01. > :44:08.gone out before. The crowd are going nuts. Looks like Hannah Miley has

:44:09. > :44:13.got it. Let's not give up on either of them yet. The atmosphere is

:44:14. > :44:17.extraordinary. The crowd is on their feet. No Scottish person has ever

:44:18. > :44:22.won a gold medal in the swimming pool in Scotland. Hannah Miley is

:44:23. > :44:32.streaking away. This is a billion swim. -- a brilliant swim. She has

:44:33. > :44:44.got the gold! Hannah Miley wins gold in Scotland. What a start for the

:44:45. > :44:55.Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. This is a great race. You are seeing a

:44:56. > :45:02.world-class 400m. Looks like it may be Cochrane here. Surely he can't

:45:03. > :45:12.win it? He has done! That was an incredible swim. It was one thing to

:45:13. > :45:24.show Hannah Miley's gold medal, but we don't need to see, and 's again.

:45:25. > :45:28.-- Cochrane's again. You can tell us what happened. And so can probably

:45:29. > :45:29.the greatest Commonwealth swimmer there has ever been, King of the

:45:30. > :45:48.pool Ian Thorpe is here! APPLAUSE

:45:49. > :45:52.We like to give you the big, you Thank you know. . The big reception.

:45:53. > :45:56.Were you watching from your hotel room today or were you there? I was

:45:57. > :46:00.there. No, I lie. I was going to say, I didn't see you there. Was in

:46:01. > :46:02.the hotel. We will remind you and everyone else who happened and then

:46:03. > :46:24.we shall discuss it. There's Ben Proud. Expect fireworks

:46:25. > :46:28.down this 50 metres. Very good start for Ben Proud. He keeps his head

:46:29. > :46:35.down, keeps very flat. The back hat in the centre. Schoeman is going

:46:36. > :46:39.well. He tied in the heats a little bit. It looks like it may be Proud

:46:40. > :46:43.and Schoeman. Proud in the black hat, is he going to get the touch?

:46:44. > :46:47.He got it. Fantastic swim. First Gold Medal to England in the

:46:48. > :46:54.swimming pool. Just an amazing feeling. No-one can tell you what

:46:55. > :47:00.it's going to be like. I'm so happy I've done it.

:47:01. > :47:06.The fastest qualifier right in the centre, the black hat of at kin son.

:47:07. > :47:20.-- Atkinson. Pickett has the touch. A very good start for the Australian

:47:21. > :47:25.in the centre. What a massive start that was for McEvoy. Can he hold on?

:47:26. > :47:30.This will be really interesting down this last 25 metres. It looks like

:47:31. > :47:34.McEvoy is holding on. Coming back is Fraser-Holmes of Australia.

:47:35. > :47:38.Australia just about one, two, three with McKeon at the top there. Can

:47:39. > :47:43.the Welsh get a bronze medal? Jarvis may get it. The gold goes to

:47:44. > :47:51.Fraser-Holmes. What a brilliant swim from him out of nowhere.

:47:52. > :47:58.So Daniel Wallace of Scotland starts as the fastest qualifier. If the

:47:59. > :48:02.crowd can do anything here, is to take this young man to Gold Medal.

:48:03. > :48:09.Rousseau has found another gear. Oh, no, look at this. This is very

:48:10. > :48:12.tight. Look at this, Daniel Wallace is moving away from Rousseau. He's

:48:13. > :48:16.overtaking him. Daniel Wallace of Scotland. Can we really get another

:48:17. > :48:21.Gold Medal for Scotland? You know, we are going to. It's going to be

:48:22. > :48:24.Commonwealth champion, men's 400m individual medley, it is Daniel

:48:25. > :48:30.Wallace of Scotland. What a massive swim from him. And the crowd

:48:31. > :48:35.standing up to absolute the new Commonwealth champion. I knew

:48:36. > :48:38.exactly where I needed to be at each point. I knew it was going to be a

:48:39. > :48:52.dog fight to the finish. I'm really -- really happy. Elliott is a big

:48:53. > :48:56.favourite for gold here. This is a very close race, far closer than we

:48:57. > :49:01.expected. At the moment, it's going to be Elliott. It is a new world

:49:02. > :49:08.record. Look at the emotion. Goodness me.

:49:09. > :49:18.The final of the men's 100m backstroke, fastest seed is Mitch

:49:19. > :49:21.Larkin of Australia in the centre. Chris Walker-Hebborn is going to win

:49:22. > :49:26.this. England will get their second Gold Medal of the night. A great

:49:27. > :49:30.race from Chris Walker-Hebborn, a brilliant gold. I'm absolutely over

:49:31. > :49:33.the moon. A little bit emotional. Yeah, speechless. Great to see two

:49:34. > :49:52.Englishmen on the top of the podium. Fastest qualifier for this 100m

:49:53. > :49:57.butterfly is Siobhan Marie O'Connor. It's very tight. Maybe Savard of

:49:58. > :50:07.Canada. Savard of Canada, yes it is, wins the Gold Medal.

:50:08. > :50:18.So, Adam Brown of England big job to do. Robbie Rennick there as well.

:50:19. > :50:22.The halfway mark of this men's four by 100 metres freestyle relay. It

:50:23. > :50:26.will be very close. 100 metres to go. It looks like it's Australia

:50:27. > :50:33.taking the men's as well. Gold to team Australia in the men's four by

:50:34. > :50:38.100 free relay. Very impressive swim from Australia. We got there. We

:50:39. > :50:40.finished with that to make you happy. Australia are winning gold

:50:41. > :50:46.medals, but not as dominant in the pool as perhaps one had become

:50:47. > :50:51.accustomed to. That's right. We have won a lot, but not nearly as many

:50:52. > :50:56.as, I think, everyone is used to Australia winning. If you look at

:50:57. > :51:01.2012, and then look at where we are now, it's a big improvement. But,

:51:02. > :51:06.all of the home nations are doing really well. Look at Scotland. I

:51:07. > :51:12.know! Look at Scotland! CHEERING

:51:13. > :51:18.Will Australia be looking at Scotland? Yes, we're looking at

:51:19. > :51:21.relaxing immigration laws! LAUGHTER

:51:22. > :51:26.Why not. Dan Wallace giving Scotland their third Gold Medal. England got

:51:27. > :51:31.two today as well, their first two in the pool, Ben Proud and Chris

:51:32. > :51:35.Walker-Hebborn who loves his tattoos. Every time he wins

:51:36. > :51:44.something big he gets a new one. Wow, well, I hope he's got enough

:51:45. > :51:48.space, because this was a great performance. This has continued to

:51:49. > :51:50.cap off, I guess, probably the strength that's carried over from

:51:51. > :51:57.London 2012 has continued around this part of the world. We're seeing

:51:58. > :52:01.great performances here. They're of a standard that's higher than a lot

:52:02. > :52:07.of people expected. I was going to say, for somebody like Siobhan Marie

:52:08. > :52:13.O'Connor, at 18 and winning a silver Commonwealth medal, it's how she is

:52:14. > :52:17.managed, trained going forward. You get excited about young athletes.

:52:18. > :52:22.The thing to look out for is how they handle these kinds of

:52:23. > :52:27.competitions, not just the time. Because the time can be a fluke,

:52:28. > :52:31.whereas the way, the manner they hold themselves, you're expecting to

:52:32. > :52:34.see some of the skills that are required of athletes to be able to

:52:35. > :52:38.have successful careers. You start to get a little bit more excited

:52:39. > :52:42.about the prospects of two years in the future. How much are you

:52:43. > :52:47.enjoying Glasgow? I am enjoying it. Have you had a chance to get around?

:52:48. > :52:53.It is the most fantastic city. I'm having fun We may here. Have to give

:52:54. > :52:56.you a pair of sun glasses. Get out there, because it is I was great.

:52:57. > :53:00.Looking at the hills today and I was like, I need to travel out of town.

:53:01. > :53:04.You'd like that as well. Ian Thorpe was one of the stars of London 2012

:53:05. > :53:08.in terms of the BBC's coverage of the Games. But the other was...

:53:09. > :53:24.Claire. the Games. But the other was...

:53:25. > :53:31.the gold. There is his dad. Look at this, the beautiful boy! Look at it!

:53:32. > :53:33.the gold. There is his dad. Look at Look at him. Look at him! Oh, my

:53:34. > :53:41.God. Every time I see myself... He Look at him. Look at him! Oh, my

:53:47. > :53:58.necessarily to do with sport. Unbelievable. I'm in Scotland.

:53:59. > :54:10.weather is nice. Looks like I'm back home. I will give you a version

:54:11. > :54:14.Scottish barbeque. You want to let this die down before you put the

:54:15. > :54:18.steaks on. That's the beef. Just the lamb chops are my favourite. Just

:54:19. > :54:24.like this here, so it doesn't curl up. What we need is some black

:54:25. > :54:32.pepper. That's how we like it at home. Just basically the taste of

:54:33. > :54:36.the meat. South African barbeques, it's an outdoor thing. Douring the

:54:37. > :54:39.summer, especially near Scotland, everyone should have a little

:54:40. > :54:45.barbeque like this. Those are coming on nicely. There you are. The lamb

:54:46. > :54:54.chops, expertly don't by Burt Le Clos. Back home you burn the meat,

:54:55. > :54:59.here it's perfect. A little barbeque in Scotland. There were a lot of

:55:00. > :55:03.disbelieving Glaswegians in that piece. The exciting news is... Burt

:55:04. > :55:10.is on the show tomorrow night. I may ask him not to bring anything he's

:55:11. > :55:13.cooked with him. He might not come in tomorrow night if you insult his

:55:14. > :55:19.cooking. First day of the shooting. We can get a round up of what

:55:20. > :55:24.happened there. Carnoustie, famous for lynx golf,

:55:25. > :55:35.other seaside pursuits and now shooting. First medal of the games

:55:36. > :55:45.was won by the Sri Lankan in the 10 m pistol. Wow, she is as cool as a

:55:46. > :55:52.cucumber. That's enough for Teo to take the gold. The first British

:55:53. > :55:58.medal belongs to Dan Rivers. He said a new Games record and qualified for

:55:59. > :56:03.the final of the 10 m rifle. He went on to take bronze. They are standing

:56:04. > :56:09.here to applaud. What a reception from this crowd. I believe it's a

:56:10. > :56:23.British record as well. Absolutely smashed it. So happy. The gold was

:56:24. > :56:28.won by the Indian Bindra. Another one for his cabinet. These These are

:56:29. > :56:32.my last Games. I'm finishing off with an individual gold medal and my

:56:33. > :56:36.ninth medal of the Games. It's a good You want finish. Tension and

:56:37. > :56:42.drama and a lot of noise? You want target shooting. 16-year-old English

:56:43. > :56:46.shooter Amber Hill, a joint world record holder, lost a shoot-off for

:56:47. > :56:50.a semifinal place in the women's skeet. Hopefully, I'll learn from

:56:51. > :56:56.this and go home and practice even harder. Her team-mate Sarah Grey,

:56:57. > :57:00.lost a bronze medal shootoff. Sometimes I stiffen up under

:57:01. > :57:04.pressure and drop ones I wouldn't northerlily. Considering I just

:57:05. > :57:10.scraped through I had a pretty good Elena Allen final. Reached the Gold

:57:11. > :57:15.Medal shootoff, losing out to Australia Laura Coles. Disappointed

:57:16. > :57:19.obviously to have lost that by one target. But a medal is a medal.

:57:20. > :57:24.Really quite emotional. I don't know what to make of it at the moment.

:57:25. > :57:32.Give it a couple of days and it will sink in.

:57:33. > :57:50.A quick look at the medals table then:

:57:51. > :57:58.Wales could get their first Gold Medal tomorrow, because Michale

:57:59. > :58:12.Breeze goes tomorrow. Ross Murdoch going for his second
