Around the bar, we have Northern Ireland's bowlers who won silver.

:02:12.:02:17.

medals as well. We'll reflect on the athletics, on the swimming, table

:02:18.:02:19.

tennis, on the squash, which was fantastic. Amazing, wasn't it? I

:02:20.:02:27.

love that, the Cube. It's brilliant. Live sport is still going on. The

:02:28.:02:31.

women's boxing is going on. Nicola Adams is in action, on the red

:02:43.:02:47.

well. And a big rounds after plauz for our band, The Federation.

:02:48.:02:56.

APPLAUSE We will crack on with the action,

:02:57.:03:00.

starting at Hampden, parked to the rafters today for the athletics,

:03:01.:03:02.

with seven golds up for grabs. Here he goes, second attempt. That's

:03:03.:03:15.

a better finish. He hits that cleanly. He's happy with that.

:03:16.:03:24.

That improves his lead. The next man up, discus man. He needs to go

:03:25.:03:29.

somewhere around 58 metres or more to get above Aled Davies. That's a

:03:30.:03:35.

good throw for Dan. That's out there, close to 60 metres, his

:03:36.:03:40.

lifetime best, a wonderful Gold Medal for Dan Greaves of England.

:03:41.:03:46.

Oh, that's a big one. Look, she likes that.

:03:47.:03:55.

They know straight away. Only just inside the target area, but you can

:03:56.:04:00.

see where the 70-metre mark is. It looks as though that is another

:04:01.:04:13.

Games record. Sophie Hihchon is in bronze medal position. She launches

:04:14.:04:21.

it. Well, she's going to fall shy of the 70-metre linement Tremendous

:04:22.:04:24.

effort though, she put everything into that. Bronze medal for Sophie

:04:25.:04:34.

Hihchon. Sultana Frizell has successfully defended her title from

:04:35.:04:41.

four years ago. Having a dinning-dong battle in the shot

:04:42.:04:49.

putt. -- ding-dong. He takes the lead at the moment and he takes the

:04:50.:04:56.

Games record. Richards, the Commonwealth champion for men's shot

:04:57.:05:04.

putt. Jones is going well, the Welshman.

:05:05.:05:08.

Du Toit is trying to put the South African under pressure. He's done

:05:09.:05:17.

it. A clean start and Libby Clegg has gone out wonderfully well. Mikel

:05:18.:05:23.

Huggins is giving her instructions. Here comes Libby Clegg.

:05:24.:05:30.

The sun comes out, the crowd goes wild. That is Commonwealth gold for

:05:31.:05:37.

Scotland. So, we are waiting for Libby Clegg

:05:38.:05:42.

to get here. We have our fingers crossed. Her lap of honour took 45

:05:43.:05:48.

minutes. Let her enjoy that. Delight Delighted to say Baroness Tanni

:05:49.:05:53.

Grey-Thompson is with us. APPLAUSE

:05:54.:05:58.

Ladies and gentleman, also in the house, as they say in those cool

:05:59.:06:02.

places, we have the gold and Silver Medal from the discus, Dan Greaves

:06:03.:06:07.

groves and captain of the Wales team Aled Davies are here.

:06:08.:06:08.

APPLAUSE If you want a bit more room, chuck

:06:09.:06:38.

Clive over here. I'll put him here. Many congratulations. Tight

:06:39.:06:41.

competition. And you're good mates, aren't you? Yeah, yeah. That's what

:06:42.:06:50.

makes it so hard. We've competed against each other for years, but

:06:51.:06:54.

not to this level. It was war out there today. You do look as if you

:06:55.:07:00.

could be brothers. I'm the prettier one, though. I was just going to say

:07:01.:07:06.

that, actually. Given that you are good friends, when either of you

:07:07.:07:10.

aren't throwing, do you talk to each other or do you try to stay in your

:07:11.:07:15.

own space? Today was emotional for us both, because this comes around

:07:16.:07:22.

for us once in a lifetime. We don't know if we will get this chance

:07:23.:07:26.

again to be part of an inclusive Games. I didn't know how to treat

:07:27.:07:30.

the situation. I let Dan do his thing. He let me do my thing. I

:07:31.:07:35.

think we just both wanted to deliver performances that we could be proud

:07:36.:07:39.

of. Dan, for you, the Commonwealth Games is in your bones, isn't it?

:07:40.:07:45.

I'd say, yeah. In the loins. All right! Oh, yeah. Explain. I'll

:07:46.:07:53.

explain. My mother in 1982 on October 4 gave birth to me during

:07:54.:07:57.

the Commonwealth Games. So I'd say it's kind of fate that I'm in the

:07:58.:08:02.

Commonwealth Games and fortunate enough to have this around my neck.

:08:03.:08:05.

Is this the biggest moment in your sporting life? Yeah, it's up there.

:08:06.:08:10.

Paralympic gold in 2004 was a real special one for me. But as an

:08:11.:08:17.

able-bodied multisport Games being inclusive and bringing back the Gold

:08:18.:08:19.

Medal for England, which I don't often compete for England, it's just

:08:20.:08:24.

a massive honour. Aled, it's always difficult interviewing Silver

:08:25.:08:28.

Medallists, because for somebody like me or the people in this room,

:08:29.:08:31.

winning a Silver Medal at anything would be fantastic. And yet, you

:08:32.:08:37.

obviously aim for gold. So that's quite powerful when you get the

:08:38.:08:40.

Silver Medal, it's a rubbish question, you begin by going, "How

:08:41.:08:45.

do you feel? It's a mixed bag. Me and Dan, he's the best in the world

:08:46.:08:49.

at his category. I'm number one in mine. We knew it was going to be

:08:50.:08:52.

whoever is better on the day. Dan was the better man. I've looked up

:08:53.:08:56.

to him my whole career. If I could go out there and give him a run for

:08:57.:09:00.

his money, I would have been happy. He came through in the end and

:09:01.:09:04.

pipped me. It's one of those At least things. You've got the looks.

:09:05.:09:09.

And you're younger as well. Ten years. How did you find it to watch,

:09:10.:09:14.

I thought it was enthralling? Really hard actually. I've known Dan for...

:09:15.:09:22.

Forever. And being Welsh, then I kind of have quite divided opinions.

:09:23.:09:27.

It was an amazing competition. That's great. That's what

:09:28.:09:30.

Commonwealth Games highlights, at the top level in each of the para

:09:31.:09:34.

sports, the competition is We saw tight. Libby Clegg winning in the

:09:35.:09:37.

100m with her guide runner, what tight. Libby Clegg winning in the

:09:38.:09:41.

response from Hampden, as one would expect, but oh! It was amazing. When

:09:42.:09:46.

she was announced on the track and I was meant to be co-commentating on

:09:47.:09:50.

the race, I didn't see who came second and third because it was such

:09:51.:09:56.

a superb race. It was hers to lose. That's based on a PB and season's

:09:57.:10:01.

best. She ran a really strong technical race. It was amazing. We

:10:02.:10:05.

talk about the integration in these Games. You said you don't know

:10:06.:10:08.

whether there'll be other integrated Games, whilst you are a competitor.

:10:09.:10:13.

But this must surely send a message that this is the way forward,

:10:14.:10:19.

doesn't it? People are on about combining the Olympics and

:10:20.:10:22.

Paralympics, personally I don't think they need to. The Paralympics

:10:23.:10:27.

are big enough on its own. There are enough events. But other events?

:10:28.:10:38.

It's amazing what this Games has done bringing able-bodied and para

:10:39.:10:42.

athletes together. It's a unique experience. I am hoping that it can

:10:43.:10:45.

develop into something in the future, but it's nice to see that

:10:46.:10:51.

people are coming out and supporting para sport. Even I felt Scottish!

:10:52.:10:56.

The Wales captain saying that. APPLAUSE

:10:57.:11:04.

It's been amazingism feel lucky to be here. You get to enjoy the rest

:11:05.:11:09.

of the Games? Yeah the European Championships are in two weeks in

:11:10.:11:14.

Swansea. A couple of days off to let this sink in and then back to the

:11:15.:11:17.

grind for hopefully defending European title. Congratulations to

:11:18.:11:22.

you both. Give them both a big round after plauz once again.

:11:23.:11:22.

APPLAUSE We found out who were the fastest

:11:23.:11:32.

man and woman in the Commonwealth. COMMENTATOR: Hampden Park falls

:11:33.:11:46.

silent for the Commonwealth Games women's 100m final.

:11:47.:11:52.

Away first time, Campbell-Brown quickest out of the blocks. Here

:11:53.:11:58.

comes the drive from the tall Nigerian. Okagbare storming to the

:11:59.:12:03.

Gold Medal. Campbell-Brown second. Stewart gets third. What a run. What

:12:04.:12:07.

a run. I'm so excited right now. A new

:12:08.:12:14.

season's best, a win. You know my work has been based on the

:12:15.:12:17.

Commonwealth Games. I was about to put up a show.

:12:18.:12:21.

The men's 100m final. Gemili gets away really well. Fraser

:12:22.:12:36.

going well. Gemili has gone with him. It's going to be Bailey-Cole.

:12:37.:12:45.

The gold goes to Jamaica once more. Ten-flat the winning time. Gemili

:12:46.:12:48.

has got the Silver Medal! Look how much that means to him. A coming of

:12:49.:12:57.

age for the 20-year-old. This is my first senior medal. I'm speechless.

:12:58.:13:02.

The reception I got was brilliant. It's not about times, it's about

:13:03.:13:05.

position. I've done. It I'm really over the moon. We've had a lot of

:13:06.:13:11.

tweets about Adam Gemili, we'll read some of them out in a moment. First

:13:12.:13:17.

Blessing Okagbare who was mightily impressive and put previous

:13:18.:13:20.

disappointments behind her. It was fantastic. It was really great for

:13:21.:13:26.

me as an athletics fan in the studio list tong Michael Johnson and Denise

:13:27.:13:32.

Lewis talking about the race while having Steve Cram in my ear

:13:33.:13:35.

commentating. Everyone was pleased with her today. There's lots of talk

:13:36.:13:40.

about who's not here, when we look at the races today, there's

:13:41.:13:43.

fantastic athletics. What are they saying whilst the race is going on.

:13:44.:13:46.

You get this privileged position. You can hear what they're saying,

:13:47.:13:50.

whilst the race is taking place. There's a lot of cheering going on,

:13:51.:13:55.

a few "Why are they doing that? It's like, who else would you want to be

:13:56.:13:59.

listening to when you're watching. It's cool. That's like me at the

:14:00.:14:05.

swimming with Becki and Mark. We all stand up and start cheering. The

:14:06.:14:11.

men's 100m, Jamaican sprinting is so strong that they can still win it.

:14:12.:14:17.

Yeah, again, that was expected but Adam you know. So lovely. We were

:14:18.:14:21.

just shouting for that, for the first 60 metres he had an amazing

:14:22.:14:27.

start and we couldn't quite see on the finish line whether he had the

:14:28.:14:30.

silver or not. So really proud of what he did. Just phenomenal

:14:31.:14:36.

running. The two of them alongside each other and he's so small in

:14:37.:14:41.

comparison. There's a real contrast in physique and running styles.

:14:42.:14:45.

Completely. Do you know what, the privilege of being here is you get

:14:46.:14:49.

to see the expressions on athletes' faces. The crowd is so close to the

:14:50.:14:52.

track, it's really lovely to get that emotion. Bailey-Cole looked

:14:53.:14:59.

like he pulled up lame. Yeah, they're all starting to look across

:15:00.:15:03.

as well, which always worries me in a sprint, where they look either

:15:04.:15:07.

side. Just look ahead and don't worry. There's so much you can't do

:15:08.:15:12.

at that stage. Jake, "Adam Gemili has shown he has more in his

:15:13.:15:17.

locker." That's one of the tweets. "My favourite moment of the Games

:15:18.:15:21.

was either the Nigerian table tennis team getting told off for their

:15:22.:15:26.

shorts down celebrations" if you haven't seen that... I haven't. I'm

:15:27.:15:34.

sure it's on the BBC Sport website. Or she says, Gemili smiling once he

:15:35.:15:39.

realised he had the silver. #tonight at the games to keep those coming.

:15:40.:15:50.

Here at Pacific Quay there are all kinds of things going on outside.

:15:51.:15:55.

And tonight saw a live performance from a very popular Scottish band.

:15:56.:16:34.

And they are with us now! Thank you for coming in. What was that like?

:16:35.:16:46.

Fantastic. It is great to be here again playing on the banks of the

:16:47.:16:51.

River Clyde where we all grew up. For us it was special. We have all

:16:52.:16:57.

our family down as well. Not only did we get to play but we got to see

:16:58.:17:01.

the family, so coming back to Glasgow is always special. And did

:17:02.:17:08.

they give you tickets for events? We have been really busy this summer,

:17:09.:17:12.

travelling, so we try to catch as many events as we could but only

:17:13.:17:17.

through the BBC. I love it! That is not why we got them on! And did you

:17:18.:17:32.

borrow Clyde? Yes, but he was all over the place, crowd surfing at one

:17:33.:17:36.

point. I had to get him back because I know he wanted to make a TV

:17:37.:17:42.

appearance. You could have lost him. No, my eyes were firmly on him. He

:17:43.:17:54.

was always coming back. At one point he came back at a frightening speed!

:17:55.:18:00.

I am so glad that Wet Wet Wet are here. And I hope you appreciate our

:18:01.:18:08.

band, The Federation. To get away from this excitement, in the

:18:09.:18:11.

mornings I tend to go for a walk around Glasgow and this morning I

:18:12.:18:15.

went to the West End and Kelvingrove park. It was absolutely lovely and I

:18:16.:18:19.

could hear all this noise because the lawn bowls was going on and this

:18:20.:18:21.

is what happened today. It is the year 1522 and the first

:18:22.:18:40.

Duke of Suffolk unwittingly invent a brand-new sport. Fast forward 500

:18:41.:18:43.

years and it is an integral part of the Commonwealth Games, having

:18:44.:18:45.

featured in all of them. It requires grace and deafness of touch. Welcome

:18:46.:18:54.

to the world of lawn bowls. -- deft touch. We are at the picturesque

:18:55.:18:59.

Kelvingrove to witness the men's pairs final. This is a match between

:19:00.:19:04.

an unknown quantity, the two Malaysian fellows, and the best in

:19:05.:19:09.

the world, the Scottish pairing of Alex Marshall and Paul Foster. This

:19:10.:19:14.

is the biggest prize in global world bowls, so expect competition to be

:19:15.:19:16.

fierce. Good opening couple of ends.

:19:17.:19:32.

Shelling peas. Gentle but effective start for Scotland. Not looking good

:19:33.:19:39.

for Malaysia. Down and it is 10-0 to Scotland. Those Malaysian boys know

:19:40.:19:45.

exactly how those Brazilian footballers felt. In the area. Down

:19:46.:19:56.

the split! Got it. This is just getting worse and worse for

:19:57.:20:01.

Malaysia. He has got the gap. He has run through. Still looks like one to

:20:02.:20:09.

Scotland. Why is it going? Out there on the side. Wonderful. Malaysia got

:20:10.:20:17.

two precious points. The comeback is on! He knew he was wide. Two in a

:20:18.:20:29.

row. 19-threes. This match will be over pretty soon. And it is. On

:20:30.:20:36.

over. The Scottish pair of Alex Marshall and Paul Foster dominated

:20:37.:20:40.

the final. Elsewhere the home nations have not

:20:41.:20:41.

the final. Elsewhere the home nations have been faring badly. In

:20:42.:20:46.

men's triples, Northern Ireland got silver and Wales got bronze but the

:20:47.:20:50.

winners were South Africa. I have loved being at the bowls today. You

:20:51.:20:55.

could say I have been bowled over by it. Hashtag bad joke! Dreadful!

:20:56.:21:05.

Let's bring on the next Scottish gold medallists. Alex Marshall and

:21:06.:21:06.

Paul Foster! Did you know going into it that that

:21:07.:21:36.

would be the 12th for Scotland and would break the record? Was that not

:21:37.:21:41.

even in the thinking? We got told first thing this morning that if we

:21:42.:21:47.

got the gold medal it would be a record breaker. It put some pressure

:21:48.:21:52.

on us. Not too much bother. It didn't show. We managed to come up

:21:53.:21:58.

with the goods. Paul was magnificent day, phenomenal for the first ten

:21:59.:22:02.

ends and did not give the Malaysians a chance. I have to thank him for

:22:03.:22:07.

his performance this morning. You batted them. It was all over. You

:22:08.:22:15.

were 19-0 up. They are a strong pair but you have to get out of the traps

:22:16.:22:20.

very quickly. It settles you down and gives you confidence. Alex was

:22:21.:22:24.

paying you tribute but I am sure you will do the same for him for the

:22:25.:22:29.

semifinal against England because it was an extraordinary comeback. It

:22:30.:22:33.

was incredible. Two of the best I have seen in my life. Under

:22:34.:22:39.

pressure. I was getting emotional and carried away. I was so confident

:22:40.:22:43.

there would be another shot and it was absolutely amazing. And not

:22:44.:22:45.

knowing where the camera is! That is going into our top ten! Are

:22:46.:23:08.

you hiding your eyes seeing that again? Yes, with the celebrations,

:23:09.:23:12.

you get caught up in the motions at the time. It was more of a

:23:13.:23:16.

celebration than anything else but when you play two bowls like that,

:23:17.:23:21.

the best in my life, you have got to celebrate in some way. Just really

:23:22.:23:27.

happy. Have you had a chance to celebrate since winning gold? Not

:23:28.:23:31.

really. The media attention is fantastic but I had to go back to

:23:32.:23:36.

the hotel and get ready because we are still competing in the fours and

:23:37.:23:41.

we managed to compete against Kenya and win this afternoon. This

:23:42.:23:49.

afternoon? Yes, 5:45pm. I had ten or 15 minutes to prepare myself and go

:23:50.:23:55.

back and play tonight. That sounds slightly unfair. I understand why

:23:56.:24:00.

competitors have to be drug tested but that does not necessarily make

:24:01.:24:06.

it a level playing field for your next game. It could have waited

:24:07.:24:13.

until afterwards, yes. I was taken at 2:45pm and I had to go to the

:24:14.:24:19.

toilet! We love those tales! I have wanted to ask you this. Everybody

:24:20.:24:26.

calls you Tatty but why? When I was about three, I could not say daddy.

:24:27.:24:33.

People think it is because I eat potatoes and crisps! Far from it. It

:24:34.:24:37.

is purely because I could not say daddy when I was younger. You are

:24:38.:24:43.

the daddy of bowls. Fantastic stuff. That gold medal meant that Scotland

:24:44.:24:53.

broke their record with 12 gold medals. I expect Team Scotland is a

:24:54.:24:58.

pretty good place right now. I know you are having a great time at

:24:59.:25:02.

Pacific key with a cocktail shaker, live audience and band, but here we

:25:03.:25:13.

have all this! We have got an amazing crowd in

:25:14.:25:18.

tonight celebrating at the home of Team Scotland. And today is an

:25:19.:25:28.

historic day. More gold medals in the Commonwealth Games than ever

:25:29.:25:32.

before for Scotland. What do we think of that?

:25:33.:25:38.

CROWD CHEERS We have a fantastic line-up of live

:25:39.:25:43.

music coming up as part of the festival happening across Scotland,

:25:44.:25:46.

wrapping around the amazing sport we have been enjoying for the last few

:25:47.:25:51.

days and will continue to enjoy. We have music and entertainment at live

:25:52.:25:56.

venues and everybody is having a fantastic time. The party is about

:25:57.:26:03.

to get under way. Yes! Huge relief to find I am not the first artist on

:26:04.:26:08.

stage! That honour goes to this fantastic band. They are from the

:26:09.:26:15.

Western Isles and it is great to have them here. Robert Robertson is

:26:16.:26:20.

the lead singer. You have had fantastic success, topping the world

:26:21.:26:24.

music charts. Give me an idea of what music you will be playing. Here

:26:25.:26:30.

we have some bagpipes, some tune sets, and we have a song that myself

:26:31.:26:44.

and Angus wrote. Some Gaelic to noes Gaelic -- some Gaelic songs as well.

:26:45.:26:56.

Where does your name come from? It is where he was brought up. How does

:26:57.:27:04.

it feel to be playing in front of the crowds here as part of the

:27:05.:27:08.

Commonwealth Games? Absolutely brilliant. I study in Glasgow so I

:27:09.:27:13.

spent a lot of time there. But we have been all over the place for the

:27:14.:27:19.

last few weeks. This is the first time I have seen the Games here and

:27:20.:27:24.

the city is so vibrant and everyone is in great form. They are desperate

:27:25.:27:29.

for you to get started so I will let you. We are going to have a great

:27:30.:27:35.

night here. We have a fantastic line-up. I have heard that one of

:27:36.:27:42.

the boxing teams will be doing a set on the decks later. Well you get

:27:43.:27:47.

partying down there, we will get partying here. Say goodbye,

:27:48.:27:52.

everybody. Goodbye, everybody! We will keep going with the bowls

:27:53.:27:59.

because we have the Northern Ireland bowls team here, who won in the

:28:00.:28:04.

triples. Neil Booth, Neil Mulholland, and Paul Daly silver

:28:05.:28:09.

medal. We have to give a message to the team manager. They are not

:28:10.:28:13.

drinking even though they are sitting at the bar. Correct?

:28:14.:28:18.

Congratulations. You were the comeback kings in the men's triples.

:28:19.:28:25.

Yes, we were 7-0 down in the quarterfinal against Scotland and

:28:26.:28:27.

came back and won, and same quarterfinal against Scotland and

:28:28.:28:30.

Wales and won, and quarterfinal against Scotland and

:28:31.:28:35.

against South Africa but then it was a bridge too far. If you

:28:36.:28:39.

against South Africa but then it was can comeback, does that spare you on

:28:40.:28:48.

when you get behind? Indeed. We did come back to 14-10. With one more

:28:49.:28:54.

end, we could have won but unfortunately we didn't. I don't

:28:55.:28:59.

have Inspector Gadget arms so I will come down here. Apparently the first

:29:00.:29:04.

question I have to ask you is if you are going to retire. I think I

:29:05.:29:08.

might. I knew at the start of the year that this would be my last

:29:09.:29:14.

Games. I have thoroughly enjoyed it. 95% sure I will retire

:29:15.:29:20.

afterwards! Can I attach this? Has that little beauty changed your

:29:21.:29:27.

mind? I would like it in a different colour but we will see. I will think

:29:28.:29:31.

about it over the winter but I think I will call it a day. You go back as

:29:32.:29:39.

far as Kuala Lumpur. Was that gold at the Commonwealth? Yes, gold to

:29:40.:29:43.

start and I was hoping to finish on gold. And you are in the fours as

:29:44.:29:49.

well. The fact you have delivered silver, does that put pressure on

:29:50.:29:56.

the fourth member? We have mentioned that! He will bring us up that one

:29:57.:30:01.

notch and hopefully get the goals. We have already played one game and

:30:02.:30:05.

we are looking forward to bringing him in and seeing what he can do.

:30:06.:30:11.

Brilliant. A big round of applause for that Northern Irish silver medal

:30:12.:30:14.

and the Scottish gold medals on the sofa as well. Now from bowls to the

:30:15.:30:23.

fastest sport of the lot. Do you know that a shuttlecock travelles

:30:24.:30:27.

faster than a Formula One car? Today was the final of the mixed team

:30:28.:30:30.

competition for the third Commonwealth Games in a row,

:30:31.:30:33.

Malaysia against England. This is what happened.

:30:34.:30:39.

The start of the mixed team final. England have taken the opening game.

:30:40.:30:53.

What a super return of serve. What reactions. Unbelievable. It's gone

:30:54.:31:06.

long. Now a match point. That's gone long as well! Well that could prove

:31:07.:31:13.

absolutely vital. What a thriller for England, it's been a perfect

:31:14.:31:24.

start. Incredible athleticism you see in

:31:25.:31:28.

top-class As an badminton. Unbelievable smash.

:31:29.:31:44.

Oh, that's wild. Yousef claims the second game.

:31:45.:31:59.

Four match points. He's brought the final level. Chris

:32:00.:32:12.

Adcock coming back zwron court. Good play by the English here. --

:32:13.:32:18.

back onto court. Good play by the English here.

:32:19.:32:25.

Another brilliant smash. That wraps it up. Malaysia are now in front in

:32:26.:32:32.

the tie. If Malaysia win this women's singles, the Gold Medal tie

:32:33.:32:35.

is over. This is probably the biggest match

:32:36.:32:41.

that Sarah has ever had to play in her life.

:32:42.:32:46.

Good judgment. Time is running out for England.

:32:47.:32:55.

And Malaysia have retained their title. What a moment for her. What a

:32:56.:33:05.

moment for Malaysia. Because the bowls players aren't

:33:06.:33:09.

allowed to drink nor the badminton players. I thought I'd better try.

:33:10.:33:15.

Gabby and Chris are alongside me, part of the Silver Medal-winning

:33:16.:33:20.

team. The two of you are married, so how does the relationship work on

:33:21.:33:24.

court? It's been going pretty well lately. Since we got married it's

:33:25.:33:28.

got even better. We both trust each other a lot. That helps in a

:33:29.:33:33.

partnership. We both have the same drive and passion and goal that's we

:33:34.:33:36.

want to achieve. So far, it's been helping massively. Good. What do the

:33:37.:33:41.

team think about the Silver Medal? Yeah, I think we're all ecstatic.

:33:42.:33:47.

It's a bit of a sour point at the minute, we were playing for gold, we

:33:48.:33:50.

all want aid gold, but on reflection, it's been a -- wanted

:33:51.:33:56.

gold, but on reflection it's been a fantastic week. Are you allowed to

:33:57.:33:59.

share a room in the athletes' village? No, we're not actually.

:34:00.:34:07.

Ahhh, boo. I'm sharing with the girlingz. The boys are sharing

:34:08.:34:10.

together. We have different teams in there, with the squash and table How

:34:11.:34:16.

many tennis. To a room? Two. The girls are in three. Me and my

:34:17.:34:22.

partner are in two. You've still got competitions left to come, straight

:34:23.:34:25.

back into action? Yes, we start on Wednesday with the individual, we

:34:26.:34:29.

will have a bit of down time. I think we're going to watch the

:34:30.:34:32.

boxing Because that's tomorrow. Really relaxing (! ) It's nice to

:34:33.:34:37.

see all the sports and things and just enjoy the food court for a day,

:34:38.:34:41.

then back on court on Wednesday. I know that you very rarely disagree,

:34:42.:34:46.

but what's the one thing that sometimes causes arguments?

:34:47.:34:48.

Obviously not when you're wearing team kit? I don't think I get much

:34:49.:34:53.

choice on the selection of kit we wear, to be honest. You usually pick

:34:54.:34:58.

the kit. I have to put my foot down when Chris wants to wear pink.

:34:59.:35:03.

Steady on there. You both look lovely in pink. You look good in

:35:04.:35:07.

silver, the whole team do. Congratulations, thanks very much

:35:08.:35:09.

for coming in. Good luck with the rest of it. Thank you.

:35:10.:35:10.

APPLAUSE Sophie says, "I'm glad the

:35:11.:35:26.

Commonwealth has bowls in it, because it shows everybody that

:35:27.:35:29.

bowls isn't just an old person's sports." Joanne says, "I'm loving

:35:30.:35:35.

the band tonight. I wish I knew the secret of guitarist's shiny hair."

:35:36.:35:41.

Mikey never, ever reveals his secret. James Tweddle says, "After

:35:42.:35:50.

watching the final of the men's today, I want to give it a go."

:35:51.:35:55.

In the last few days, we've witnessed the ferocity on the rugby

:35:56.:36:00.

field, the physicality on the hockey pitch an the fight on the netball

:36:01.:36:05.

court. There's one sport amongst all others that could take the title for

:36:06.:36:08.

intensity, a sport where there are no lanes, no zones and there is no

:36:09.:36:13.

net to separate the opponents. A sport where they are locked in a box

:36:14.:36:18.

until there can only be one winner. Think cage fighting, but with

:36:19.:36:21.

racquets and nicer shorts. The Gold Medal match in the women's

:36:22.:36:24.

competition was between England's Laura Massaro, the world champion,

:36:25.:36:28.

and Nicol David from Malaysia, the world number one. David won a tight

:36:29.:36:32.

first game and after that, pulled away to win 3-0. She's got it. She's

:36:33.:36:39.

the champion again. Right now she is the champion of champions.

:36:40.:36:44.

Frustrating for Laura, but respectable. Her opponent is

:36:45.:36:48.

regarded as one of the best ever. I felt like she was moving very well

:36:49.:36:51.

today. She didn't make a lot of errors. When someone is playing as

:36:52.:36:55.

well as that you just have to play better, unfortunately it wasn't

:36:56.:37:01.

there today. Silver Medal in the women's event, team England are

:37:02.:37:04.

guaranteed gold and silver in the men's final when Nick Matthews and

:37:05.:37:10.

James Wilstrop continue their rivalry.

:37:11.:37:16.

Willmott was coming at Matthew with all that he possessed. Matthew holds

:37:17.:37:22.

on. Willmott strop deserved a game and he's got it. Lovely finish. Too

:37:23.:37:36.

good. After a pulsiating hour-and-a-half after no quarter was

:37:37.:37:39.

asked for or given, the match was all square as two games each. The

:37:40.:37:42.

Gold Medal would be settled by a final and deciding gamement -- game.

:37:43.:37:52.

And the Gold Medal goes to the world's number two, Nick Matthew.

:37:53.:37:57.

What can he say, though to James Wilstrop? And Nick Matthew has won

:37:58.:38:05.

two successive singles Commonwealth gold meldals. Five weeks ago today I

:38:06.:38:09.

was on a hospital bed having woken up from a knee operation. James as

:38:10.:38:15.

well, had a scan on his hip. They told him his career was going to be

:38:16.:38:19.

over, six weeks ago. Our physios have earned their money. There's no

:38:20.:38:24.

doubt there will be moments where I might think I could have won it, but

:38:25.:38:28.

silver is a great achievement. I've got to have perspective on that. I'm

:38:29.:38:33.

fit and I'm well. I've got the doubles, there's a lot of good

:38:34.:38:39.

stuff. No mean achievement. My brain is going a thousand miles an hour. I

:38:40.:38:43.

was telling myself to use my brain not my brawn. So hard when that

:38:44.:38:48.

testosterone is flowing inside you to stay calm. You could see in both

:38:49.:38:54.

men's faces the intensity of the battle they'd endured. The two

:38:55.:38:58.

finals I watched today confirms squash is one of the most demanding

:38:59.:39:02.

sports there is. It would be nice to think that the International Olympic

:39:03.:39:06.

Committee might have been watching. It was just fantastic to watch. Do

:39:07.:39:10.

you know that squash players burn up to a thousand calories an hour. That

:39:11.:39:14.

match was one hour and 40 minutes, that's 1600 calories each. They can

:39:15.:39:20.

eat a lot tonight. Ollie Williams is with me by our magic map. Where have

:39:21.:39:25.

you been today? Early start to Carnoustie for the shooting, a

:39:26.:39:30.

perfect place to pick up a couple of smaller island nations. The shoot --

:39:31.:39:37.

The shooting venue covers a lot of ground. On my travels, I met a man

:39:38.:39:42.

who used to prepare for battle on the same fields a few years ago. He

:39:43.:39:44.

knows his way around. I spent a number of years here with

:39:45.:40:01.

royal Irish. Some not so good, believe you me! It's not very nice

:40:02.:40:08.

in the grass and it's raining and you're crawling through muck and

:40:09.:40:12.

dirt. But good memories, yeah. I'm 61 Today? Today. Yes. Happy

:40:13.:40:17.

birthday. Congratulations. There's a lot of young people out there, let

:40:18.:40:23.

them have it. This is my last. You remember the British Empire, you're

:40:24.:40:27.

a member of my 71 club as well. Thank you very much. Thank you. Good

:40:28.:40:30.

luck. Loving the selfies. 71 club going

:40:31.:40:34.

well. Going strongly yeah. Only three more today. I went for quality

:40:35.:40:40.

over quantity. Doug Creek from Norfolk island, which you will find

:40:41.:40:44.

over there in the far corner. It takes about two days to get to

:40:45.:40:48.

Carnoustie from there. He brought his family with him. I asked his son

:40:49.:40:53.

this morning, he saw his dad shoot and I asked if it was worth it, his

:40:54.:40:58.

dad finished second last and his son went, "I think." That will be a fun

:40:59.:41:09.

48-hour back. Nuie Do you know what it translates as? Behold the clock

:41:10.:41:14.

nut. It does! Yen winly. I know where it is, because it's over here,

:41:15.:41:22.

there's Norfolk and it's here. I spoke to Clemencia, a shooter, and

:41:23.:41:27.

maybe they need more coconuts because she told me they're training

:41:28.:41:32.

while they're back there involves shooting occasionally the local

:41:33.:41:35.

wildlife in the form of flying foxes and pigeons. Maybe more coconuts

:41:36.:41:40.

over there and we could change that. And finally, I spoke to the flag

:41:41.:41:44.

bearer for Canada at the Opening Ceremony. She was in tears before I

:41:45.:41:48.

even had a chance to ask her a question, because she had shot so

:41:49.:41:55.

badly. She won -- she's won seven more titles more Commonwealth Games

:41:56.:41:58.

medals than that. She was kind enough to speak to us and join the

:41:59.:42:01.

club. I'm sure it will be a consolation that she's in the 71

:42:02.:42:05.

club. I'm sure it won't actually! I will take my coconuts to Hugh to see

:42:06.:42:09.

what he can do with them and round up the other headlines of day five:

:42:10.:42:18.

Other stories from today's action at the Games, and Northern Ireland's

:42:19.:42:23.

two-time Olympic medallist Paddy Barns began the defence of his light

:42:24.:42:28.

flyweight tight well a comfortable win. In netball, Wales kept their

:42:29.:42:38.

semifinal hopes alive with a 47-35 win over Barbados. Northern Ireland

:42:39.:42:41.

won their first match at a Commonwealth Games beating Saint

:42:42.:42:47.

Lucia 61-40. In the women's hockey, favourites Australia beat England

:42:48.:42:50.

3-0. Scotland saw off Wales 2-0. Which means that the winner of the

:42:51.:42:55.

England-Scotland clash on Wednesday will earn the last semifinal spot.

:42:56.:43:02.

Scotland also face Wales in the men's hockey. Wales led 2-0.

:43:03.:43:09.

Scotland came back 3-3 and then this winning goal from Nick Parkes. It

:43:10.:43:17.

was a fabulous match. Good finish. Behold the coconut. Yeah. Really?

:43:18.:43:23.

Yeah, really. Did you find that on a reputable website? Yeah.

:43:24.:43:24.

Yeah, really. Did you find that on a reputable website? Yeah. It sounds

:43:25.:43:28.

like something from call my bluff. That's how it translates. There's a

:43:29.:43:33.

loads of stuff when captain cook went there. I could bore you stupid.

:43:34.:43:38.

Got to move on. Back to where Ollie was at Carnoustie and see how the

:43:39.:43:41.

medals were decided there. David Currie rounds up all the action.

:43:42.:43:53.

If shooting were darts, this gent might be Michael the medal man

:43:54.:44:01.

Gault, nobody has won more in Games history. His aim today: A record

:44:02.:44:06.

19th before he hangs up his guns for good. The Englishman failed to reach

:44:07.:44:11.

the 50-metre pistol final. I came here to get one medal, at least one,

:44:12.:44:16.

I've done that. Meanwhile on the shot gun range,

:44:17.:44:21.

Charlotte Kerwood was going for more glory, this time, in the single trap

:44:22.:44:30.

event. Not Charlotte's day either, missing out on the semifinal by a

:44:31.:44:34.

couple of shots. I'm still walking away with a Gold Medal, it's not For

:44:35.:44:41.

England bad. Team-mate Caroline Koby reached a sudden-death shootout for

:44:42.:44:47.

bronze, though. Rooney misses. Povey takes the

:44:48.:44:52.

bronze medal. Another English bronze in the 50-metre rifle. Kenneth Par

:44:53.:44:59.

winning his first individual medal. It's a good shot. It's going to be

:45:00.:45:02.

enough. So if the home nations shooter was

:45:03.:45:06.

going to end the day with a gold, it would have to be in the women's

:45:07.:45:13.

50-metre prone rifle. There's Scotland's Jen McIntosh defended her

:45:14.:45:17.

title, coming away with another British bronze. We are going to move

:45:18.:45:26.

onto something now because it was that an ultimate day of action in

:45:27.:45:31.

the pool and Wales were hoping to make it historic. Alas time someone

:45:32.:45:39.

won gold for Wales was 50 years ago. Jazz Carlin was there and so were

:45:40.:45:43.

the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry. This is what

:45:44.:45:50.

happened in the swimming. It looks like it looks like it'll be an

:45:51.:45:54.

Australian 123 for only the second time in the able-bodied swimming.

:45:55.:45:56.

Just got it, Mitch of Australia. Jazz Carlin of Wales sprinting down

:45:57.:46:13.

the last 50. Goodness me. Wales are going to win gold in the 800 metres

:46:14.:46:20.

freestyle! Jazz Carlin from Swansea takes gold. A brilliant swim.

:46:21.:46:29.

He is pushing very hard and working for this world record. It looks like

:46:30.:46:44.

he might be just outside to point 20 .92 -- 2.20.92. He has got the

:46:45.:46:50.

European gold and now also the Commonwealth gold! Hold on to your

:46:51.:46:57.

hats. Coming back very strongly is Sophie Taylor, coming back. Sophie

:46:58.:47:03.

Taylor, the 18-year-old, has overtaken. Can she get goals for

:47:04.:47:09.

England? A wonderful swim! She gets gold in the 100 metres breaststroke.

:47:10.:47:16.

A massive British record for her and what a wonderful swim! It is so

:47:17.:47:24.

tight down this last five. Who will get the touch? It looks like it will

:47:25.:47:30.

be lane number three and it is. Silver goes to Aimee Willmott of

:47:31.:47:34.

England and a brilliant swim for her. Coming back is Adam Peaty in

:47:35.:47:48.

the black cat. Vandenberg gets the touch! Silver for Adam Peaty. That

:47:49.:47:57.

will be a wonderful competition for years to come. This is utterly

:47:58.:48:06.

brilliant. She has gone out so fast and her sister is catching her up

:48:07.:48:11.

very fast. Cate Campbell leading at the moment and Bronte Campbell

:48:12.:48:17.

following. She has got it. Another Australian 123. Coming back is Adam

:48:18.:48:28.

Barrett and this is really quite interesting. Joseph Schooling going

:48:29.:48:32.

very well to Singapore. Coming through is Chad Le Clos. My goodness

:48:33.:48:39.

me! 51.29. Chad Le Clos wins the gold!

:48:40.:48:45.

Love the fact that his father has a South Africa shirt but this is our

:48:46.:48:57.

Wales tea cosy for Jazz Carlin! With us is the Commonwealth champion from

:48:58.:49:01.

the 800 free and you were delighted to be replaced by Jazz Carlin. If I

:49:02.:49:07.

was going to be replaced by anyone, I was delighted it was her. She had

:49:08.:49:13.

some tough years, missing out on the Olympics, so I am really pleased for

:49:14.:49:18.

her. The first Welsh woman in 40 years, you could see as soon as

:49:19.:49:21.

Sharon told her in the interview, she welled up because it meant so

:49:22.:49:26.

much to her. Very emotional on the podium as well. Good podium tears

:49:27.:49:35.

from the pool. Tanni Grey-Thompson was crying. And Gabby as well.

:49:36.:49:42.

Hormonal tears. Whatever! The other excitement at a teenage level,

:49:43.:49:48.

Sophie Taylor. Yes, only 18 and it was incredible. She missed out on a

:49:49.:49:51.

medal in the 50 metre breaststroke earlier in the week and he did not

:49:52.:49:56.

have the best 200 metres breaststroke either. -- she did not

:49:57.:50:04.

have. To storm the 100 metres, and changing clubs, she has such a

:50:05.:50:10.

bright future. One more day left of swimming. I am sad and I don't want

:50:11.:50:17.

it to end. We have some relays and the men's 1550 metres freestyle from

:50:18.:50:21.

Ben Proud. A great night tomorrow night. -- 1500 metres and the 50

:50:22.:50:34.

metres freestyle. Libby Clegg is also here alongside her guide. Let's

:50:35.:50:44.

bring on Oliver and Libby and her guide!

:50:45.:51:04.

Oliver, first of all, you have completed the set! Paralympics,

:51:05.:51:13.

European, Worlds, and now Commonwealth gold. That is what I

:51:14.:51:17.

have been shooting for all year. It is a relief to be able to do that

:51:18.:51:22.

tonight. And your brother used to compete with you. We always saw you

:51:23.:51:27.

in races together. What has happened to Sam? He has decided to call it a

:51:28.:51:32.

day, unfortunately. It would have been nice for him to be out there

:51:33.:51:41.

tonight but he was in the stands cheering me. Oh, good and you got a

:51:42.:51:47.

great response. And so did you, Libby. What your lap of honour 45

:51:48.:51:53.

minutes? I did not realise it was that long! We were enjoying

:51:54.:51:57.

ourselves. Where you getting mobbed all the way round? It was great to

:51:58.:52:02.

have so much support from everybody and all the people we knew. They

:52:03.:52:06.

were getting photographs and talking to us and hugging us, which was

:52:07.:52:11.

nice. And did you become her guide runner to follow in the footsteps of

:52:12.:52:17.

your stepfather? Yes, Lincoln, who had a brilliant career in athletics

:52:18.:52:25.

in the 80s, was guiding Libby. They managed to get the silver in Beijing

:52:26.:52:30.

and then I was given an opportunity to work with Libby and he asked me

:52:31.:52:34.

if I wanted to give it a go. I thought it was a challenge and I

:52:35.:52:38.

decided to go for it and I have not looked back, to be fair. And you

:52:39.:52:45.

have recently got a guide dog. Hattie, is that right? Yes. But you

:52:46.:52:51.

have had to adapt to her routine rather than her adapting to yours?

:52:52.:52:57.

Yes, she wakes me up in the morning. I don't like getting up in the

:52:58.:53:02.

morning. I feel bad. She said that my bedroom door, like, feed me! So I

:53:03.:53:08.

have to get up. Yes, dogs have got to be fed. I heard what you said

:53:09.:53:14.

about running blind, it is exhilarating because you are in

:53:15.:53:17.

control and out of control at the same time. Definitely. We are like

:53:18.:53:24.

one person and it feels incredible. I am kind of on my own but

:53:25.:53:30.

together. It is really strange. It works really well and we perform

:53:31.:53:36.

well together. Going out to celebrate in Glasgow tonight?

:53:37.:53:39.

Definitely not. I am looking forward to my bed! Everybody is seeing a lot

:53:40.:53:45.

of love for the para-sport and we love them being integrated.

:53:46.:53:50.

Commonwealth champions Oliver Hynd and Libby Clegg! Thank you to Becky

:53:51.:54:00.

as well. Artistic gymnastics got under way today, with men's and

:54:01.:54:04.

women's team events both taking place at the same time and both

:54:05.:54:09.

spread over two days for the first time. Louis Smith was back after a

:54:10.:54:13.

year and a half out and he put in an impressive performance on the pommel

:54:14.:54:16.

horse to put England in the lead ahead of Scotland. And England also

:54:17.:54:23.

lead the women's competition ahead of former champions Australia. Both

:54:24.:54:32.

competitions conclude tomorrow. And Nicola Adams has won in the finals

:54:33.:54:41.

of her boxing as well. Let's bring you up to date on the table tennis

:54:42.:54:45.

because today was the men's team final and England took on the

:54:46.:54:53.

favourites, Singapore. The gold medal match, the final match of this

:54:54.:55:02.

competition the first game is so critical.

:55:03.:55:16.

Zhan converts the opening match into a W for Singapore. England trailing.

:55:17.:55:26.

Match point for the 12th ranked player in the world. He has played a

:55:27.:55:36.

wonderful match. That is why it is called safe hands and the

:55:37.:55:40.

mountain's gradient got considerably steeper for Team England now. More

:55:41.:55:47.

chance of Paul Drinkhall beating Zhan. Sizeable upset in the men's

:55:48.:56:00.

doubles. The phenomenal result for Andrew Bagley and Paul Drinkhall,

:56:01.:56:03.

bringing the match back to 1-2 and all to play for. This will always be

:56:04.:56:13.

a tough ask for Andrew Bagley. Match point Singapore. There it is. 12

:56:14.:56:31.

medals to Singapore, 3-1. At the swimming yesterday we had Harriet

:56:32.:56:34.

Davies winning bronze for Scotland. Under the weightlifting Rebekah

:56:35.:56:40.

Tiler just missed out on the medals, coming forth for England in the 69

:56:41.:56:49.

kilograms class. And this is Nicola Adams winning through to the

:56:50.:56:51.

quarterfinals, the first ever woman to win an Olympic gold medal. She is

:56:52.:56:56.

hoping to add the Commonwealth gold medal as well. A flurry of punches

:56:57.:57:02.

to win that match and no doubt at all about the winner. This is how

:57:03.:57:06.

the medals table looks at the end of day five. The gap between Australia

:57:07.:57:15.

and England remains three. Scotland are third on 13. We might get a

:57:16.:57:19.

:57:20.:57:26.

And Wales got more goals today, so they are eighth. And silver for
