Day 8 Tonight at the Games

hosts for tonight, Clare Balding and Mark Chapman!

Hello! My word! What a fantastic welcome, thank you so much!

Good evening and welcome to Tonight at the Games.

An hour in which we can indulge our love of all things sporting with a

Commonwealth line-up of gymnastics, athletics, cycling, diving, bowls,

The 400m World Record holder Michael Johnson and the new Commonwealth

record holder Kirani James, Beth Tweddle, Chris Boardman, the new

-- Dave Weir is here, after having one Commonwealth Gold. And we have

our fingers crossed that Eilidh Child, fresh from getting silver at

Hampden Park, will be here later. It is a great line-up and we will

have to keep moving. But I think we should honour

some other athletes as well. For this,

I need the help of the Federation. Not all of you,

just Dave and Johnny on sax. Just take it away because this will

help. As you can see, it is not just the athletes getting into the

sporting spirit of things, this is at the hockey today. The police

having a go on the hamster wheel! It is fair to say that never have the

police in Scotland felt so much love! It is a good Games when even

the police are competing. Back to the proper competition.

On the streets of Glasgow this morning, the crowds were out

and the visors were down, as the cyclists put pedal to the metal.

40km for the men, 30 for the women, it started and ended in the city,

I am at Glasgow Green for the time trial. The rules are simple. He or

she who is fastest wins. Starting with the women's race over 30

kilometres and the home nation interests rests largely on

England's Emma Pooley, Scotland's Katie Archibald and Wales's Barker.

But they have to beat Linda Villumsen.

Linda Villumsen is highly fancied, what a time. Superb time for Katie

Archibald. That is cheating, for a start.

Barker, former champion. She has settled into a rhythm.

Incredible acceleration. Emma Pooley is flying. She definitely has her

eyes on the prize. Parker towards the finish.

-- Barker. Last couple of metres of effort for Katie Archibald, the

20-year-old over the line. Superb riding from Emma Pooley.

Emma Pooley has flown past with the fastest time currently but Linda

Villumsen from New Zealand is on her tail.

Linda Villumsen is going to do it. She dug deep, and Emma Pooley of

England is denied. An amazing race, England's Emma

Pooley looked like she would be the fastest but Linda Villumsen beat her

and she won Gold, and coming up in third place was the Australian.

Now to the men's. Geraint Thomas, two times Olympic champion. He could

be a factor, Dennis. This is England's Alex Dowsett.

Multiple national champion against the watch on the road.

Last out is defending Commonwealth champion, Scotland's David Millar.

Stage winner in all three tours, defending Commonwealth champion

under in Glasgow. David Millar sets off.

Geraint Thomas is doing really well, showing no signs of fatigue after

the Tour de France that some were talking about.

Rohan Dennis, head of Geraint Thomas. Alex Dowsett.

They will struggle to beat David Millar.

He is 50 seconds down and in ninth position.

David Millar is struggling and you can feel the hold on the daily Gold

slipping. This is Geraint Thomas.

The new fastest time. Rohan Dennis crosses the line and

Geraint Thomas is into the silver medal position.

The last couple of metres, he has done it. Silver four years ago, Gold

in Glasgow for Alex Dowsett and England.

There it is, the bronze medal goes to Wales and Geraint Thomas, silver

to Australia's Rohan Dennis, and the Commonwealth Gold goes from

Scotland's David Millar to England's Alex Dowsett. But it stays

within Great Britain, although these things go in cycles!

Sorry! Very good!

Two night in a row. But he loves it. If you want to get in touch, we can

see what you are saying. Mick says he is disappointed with

our walk on this evening and he wanted us to prep test that entrance

with cart wheels and back flicks. -- backflips. That really is not going

to happen. Please welcome Chris Boardman!

Before we welcome other medallists, how tough was that this morning?

Incredibly difficult. It had a bit of everything. It was designed by

Alistair Maclennan, Scottish team manager, and he has done a good job

to find a course that started in the centre of town and which took on the

different elements of hills, descents, everything. It brought out

the racing because the lead kept changing.

Now let's give a warm welcome to two men who competed that time trial

best. The new Commonwealth champion from England Alex Dowsett and the

bronze-medallist from Wales, Geraint Thomas!

Are you calm? Because afterwards, you said you won this angry. It has

been a difficult month. I got sick in the tour of Switzerland,

something as simple as a sore throw and on the second day, it developed

into bronchitis and I had to leave the Tour de France. -- sore throw.

That has been my goal from the moment I left Team Sky. So to have

that taken away at the last minute was a massive disappointment. So I

was determined here to prove not to anyone in particular other than

myself that I am capable of competing at that level. Did you

watch the tour or could you not? The first two days in the UK, I had to

go to the sponsors beforehand which I did insult to injury. -- which

added. But I went to the British Grand Prix to get away. Monday was

tough, I came through as six where I live. So that was hard. -- Essex.

Once the tour left into friends, -- into friends, I went to see how the

team was doing. -- into the Tour de France. If he has won it angry, have

you a plan to stop him being angry? I said I would buy him some flowers

to cheer him up! A teddy bear. How aware you going round the course of

where you are on the clock? Are you just going with it? Usually, but I

had a radio which did not work! It did not help. But generally, you

have the team behind you. You get a time check. And when it comes to

corners, we only went round the course once, so over 40 K, it is a

lot to take on. They remind you of sitting corners. Stuff coming up,

basically. I was watching you talk to Jonathan and you were talking

about how sometimes, being in the Tour de France could help in an

event like this because in some ways, right, is has rowed over 2,000

miles, -- has written over 2,000 miles, but you still have

adrenaline. Some people are in a box for the rest of the season and

others think they can carry on. I suspect you were not in the latter

category. I did not want to carry on. Three days is not much. Quite

unique. Amazing he is still capable of walking, let alone cycling. Alex,

it is extraordinary you are able to be a professional cyclist, explain

why. Other than having a nut case sister, I have got... I was not

referring to that. I have haemophilia, my blood does not clot.

So from an early age, we were told I would grow up and have limited range

of movement in my joints, internal bleeding, I had to avoid contact

sports. It is funny, that is sort of what got me into cycling because the

doctors said that on top of the medication I have from the NHS to

keep my courting levels normal, they said swimming was a good way of

maintaining fitness -- clotting. And while I could not do all the contact

sports, it made me angry. That is coming up a lot! So to find a sport

I could do, I ended up trying different sports. My dad was a

racing driver so I did go karting. But I was no Lewis Hamilton. That

did not happen. But I fell into cycling and I started with a local

club. I had fitness and stamina from swimming. So if it had not been for

my haemophilia, I would not be swimming as much and I might be

playing other sports. But because my haemophilia, I went and so I was

quick on the bike straightaway. So I have set up a charity and that is

the message we are promoting. To children everywhere. To try all

sports. If somebody here could be -- somebody here could be as quick as

Lewis Hamilton if they get the opportunity. There are a lot of

sports and that is the great thing about the Olympics and Commonwealth

Games, it shows people of all ages how many different sports there are.

You are a fine example, no better way of advertising get than winning

the Gold medal, thank you for coming in. Alex Dowsett and Geraint Thomas.

You may think there are no horses at the Commonwealth Games,

There is one, the pommel horse, and the master

of riding it has been Louis Smith. So did Max Whitlock. Katherine

Grainger got the ticket to watch this.

Alexander the great is reputed to have used one. -- that is the. Max

Whitlock, Dan Keatings and Louis Smith are all ready to make sure

this is a truly world-class final. Dan Keatings. He is in with a chance

of a medal. Very nice work indeed. Keep that swing. Danielle Keating

's, swinging clean. -- Dan Keatings. He is through, he has laid down the

gauntlet. Louis Smith, for England. He has put in so much work, he was

back in the gym for his comeback. Now, it is his time to shine. Oh, he

has lost his rhythm. Well... He has enjoyed the moment, for what it is

worth. It rained up the gold for Louis Smith. But it was all about

proving that he could. That he could come back. Max Whitlock. He is more

than capable by their very big score to bid. This is great. He keeps his

rhythm. Silver for Max Whitlock! 15.96. It was close to 16.

Confirmation, Dan Keatings has taken the gold medal, his first of these

championships. And there is the golden boy. Scotland's Dan Keatings.

Congratulations, that smile says it all. That was amazing. If I did that

anywhere else it would have been awesome body in front of this crowd

was unbelievable and when I stood on the podium and the national anthem

is going and the crowd was singing, I felt so proud.

It was brilliant, the crowd was fantastic and I was clapping them at

the end because it did get me through that routine, if I am

honest. It was really good fun. I am amazed to see the race still on this

place because he cried at the Hydro were the most deafening and had ever

heard. Giving a rapturous reaction to all three medallists but when Dan

Keatings took the gold medal, it completely erupted. Dan and Max

cannot be with us tonight because they have work tomorrow. But we're

hoping they will be with us tomorrow evening.

Let's now have a look at what else was going on at the Hydro today.

Yet another chance for the gold medal for Max Whitlock. There you

go. So impressive. What a performance! He is just not

faltering. Breathtaking. Another gold for Max Whitlock. What a

Commonwealth Games he is having. Up and over. Well! She has made it! I

have not seen that in 20 years. What happens here? She goes into first

place. Claudia Fragapane. She could get gold. The half turned. She has

got gold. Belly black is silver. This is all about Claudia Fragapane.

-- kelly black. This is impressive. Into the full twist. Well done! That

is a routine that will be hard to beat. For England, Ruby Harold. This

will be close. Ruby Harold gets the bronze medal. Rebecca Downey is the

Commonwealth champion. There you go. Daniel Purvis. This will be his

final. Very nice. He takes the bronze medal. And he continues the

success of the gymnasts from the Beth Tweddle is with us. We thought

you have suffered enough after last night so we thought we would give

you some dignity tonight. Just trying to wipe out from your mind.

Anybody in the Hydro today, we both were there, they will have had goose

bumps. Not only Dan Keatings winning but the medal ceremony? Dan has had

a tough couple of years, he missed out on 2012 but he always said this

was his time to shine. He had an incredible routine, he was part of

those three main contenders and he just smashed it. As soon as he

landed, you could see the elation in the crowd and with his coach and to

hear the anthem in the Hydro, that was immense. Max and Lewis did

seemed genuinely pleased? It could have gone anyway, they'll put that

difficulty at their and tomorrow it would have been a different order.

They knew that it was whoever went clean on the day. Those last three

seconds, you could see him smiling. They kept saying that. Yes, he had

gone out with difficulty, he knew he had to eat Max. As soon as he

landed, everybody was during because he had that hard time to get there.

His family were in the audience supporting him. Fingers crossed

tomorrow. The whole family are here. Max Whitlock, three gold medals and

a silver. Amazing. He has come into his own, he was the new boy in

Delhi. At London, I do not think he realised what he had achieved and

then here, it has been his championships and he has more finals

tomorrow. He might have another couple of medals. He has two of them

tomorrow? Yes, the high bar also. Amazing scenes for the gymnasts, so

impressed by the Home Nations, it says on Twitter. Particularly the

pocket rocket. Claudia Fragapane. At the beginning of this year, she was

not even sure she would be in the European team. She is now the

European finalist Andy Commonwealth all-around champion. Commonwealth

gold medallist. And she has the team finals tomorrow. Come back tomorrow

for the party! I am flying home! I am gone! Thank you for turning a

starring! It will go to another sport that requires some flipping

and turning. It has been a brilliant start for England at the diving. The

woman were coming off the ten metre platform.

-- the women. Oliver Dingley. This is potentially a medal winning dive

for him. Better than the preliminaries. We'll let the enough

for the medal? Almost gold for England. -- will that we enough. Oh

no! Ooi Tze Liang, his last dive. We could be looking at the Commonwealth

gold medallist. Jack Laugher needs 87 points. It is not good enough.

Definitely silver for Jack. It is gold for Malaysian. And there are

two English men on the podium. Sarah Barrow, nice. Really nice, well

done, Sarah. 13 years of age, right now. Superb final dive from Tonia

Couch. Meaghan Benfeito. This has to be on the money. She has thrown A

time. Roseline Filion. That will be good enough for the bronze medal.

Maybe that will not be good enough? It is gold for Canada. Bronze for

Canada. And, in between those two, Pandelela Rinong Pamg.

I think that diving is suspect accurate to watch but I particularly

love that, truly! Oh!. Have you had a few cocktails?

To Hampden Park now for what was billed as

David Rudisha, Blessing Okibare going for the sprint double.

It was a bit wet and soggy but there wasn't a spare seat as

Scottish fans revved up to roar home Eilidh Child in the 400m hurdles.

The men who led the qualifying has dropped that big through. He was

second four years ago. Well, that was high. Lifetime best, he takes

the lead. The final stages for the long jump final. Currently in the

bronze medal position. That was big! Well done, Jasmine. Well done. So,

the celebrations go across to Nigeria. Can the Olympic world

record-holder get this? Amos has got what it takes! You will take the

gold medal! He wins it. David Rudisha is second. He tried his

normal tactics but they were not good enough, he was not quick

enough. Nijel Amos from Botswana is the champion.

White, looking powerful. He has done and gone. Gordon will finish. He is

doing it again! Jehue Gordon, into the last hurdle. Cornel Fredericks

will win. And coming through, Jeffery Gibson does not quite get

there. Cornel Fredericks is the winner. And he takes the applause of

Hampden Park. 60 macro is clear in second place. 50 macro stretching

away. She will take the gold medal. 60 macro takes the silver. This one

is special. And I'm sure it will mean a to her. But you have to give

it to Kaliese Spencer, she is a great athlete. Blessing Okagbare.

Jodie Williams is trying to get there. Jodie Williams looking for

silver. Jodie Williams gets silver and Bianca Williams the bronze

medal. This is going to be close. Rasheed Dwyer is there. He might

just get this! He gets it. Jamaica Inn one, two, three.

Brilliant night at Hampden Park and here in the studio, we have three

stars of the track. Remarkable red carpet, our very own record-holder,

Michael Johnson. We have the Commonwealth and Olympic 400

champion, Kirani James, and the woman who has just done the double,

Blessing Okagbare. How exciting! We only just have

enough room for everybody. You had an amazing couple of nights,

Michael? Fantastic few nights. Angela, of course, with Blessing

Okagbare. And the English girls. They are all British, actually.

Personal-bests. Fantastic night and with Eilidh Child, that was

fantastic, just being in the stadium. And David Rudisha. Just

watching him. Being challenged one of the times ever. We must talk to

Blessing Okagbare. You have not had long to recover from doing that

sprint double? Only the fourth woman ever to do that? You don't really

care, you? But you did it! Yes, I did. It felt amazing. Demanding. I'm

just really happy. I was able to get through it with no injuries. And

there is something to celebrate. What has the reaction been back on?

Great! With messages, text messages... Fans and family,

Facebook and everywhere. It has been amazing. I don't know what will

happen when I get home! But for now, it is a really big deal and I am

really happy. Have you got more to come? Yes, relays. I have got the

Relay, tomorrow. So straight back to bed! I will celebrate after the

meet. Kirani James, even broke a record at the Commonwealth Games

that has stood 16 the years -- you broke. It was held by you and Thomas

but he says it is OK! -- you and Thomas. Do you have another record

in mind? I will take my time with that. It is a very fast time. It

seems like I am close would competing, it is far, so I will take

my time and try to improve and be consistent. What are your views when

you watch Kirani? As a 400-metre runner, I am always had to sizing so

I am looking at what I think he could do better and what I would do

if I was competing against him. I do not have to compete against him!

What would you do? It is easy for me since I do not have to compete

against him, I can say I would just beat him! It is easy to say now

because we do not have to face each other. I look at him and I see an

amazing athlete. To win an Olympic Gold medal at 19, I was 26 before I

got an Olympic Gold medal in the 400. So he has got a bright future

ahead. What happens with the 400m, it is about learning more and more

about the event and how you compete in that event. That is what he is

doing now, continuing to learn about himself and how to compete. You were

31 when you set the world record. And Kirani is 21. It is in your

favour! I have ten years to work with! Ten years! We are very excited

because another person coming from the track has arrived. From

Scotland, it was silver-medallist in the 400-metre hurdles, Eilidh Child!

-- your silver-medallist. That is not a bad line-up. I am

quite happy. Take photos, if you could! We offer has to! Well done,

what an amazing reception. -- we are faster. You kept bumping into people

you knew. It was lovely because in every corner, there was a member of

my family. It was so lovely to have them, the first time they saw me do

a shortage of honour. How have you dealt with the build-up? If you go

out and about in Glasgow, people are talking about Dan Keatings, and you

at Hampden Park tonight. Have you shut it out? I have thought of it as

another race. The same thing I always do, I have tried to block a

lot of it out and to focus on its being what I do all the time. -- on

it being. I took a deep breath and I tried to remember that this is what

I always do. Could you enjoy the race in progress? It looks painful.

It is a bit of a blur. I crossed the finish line and it was relief. I

cannot remember the race, I do not know if it was technically that

good. My coach said it was all right. All right? He said

technically it was good. It was a bit of a love. I knew I was second

over that last hurdle and it was to get to the finish line as quickly as

possible. Kirani, do you look at the Scottish athletes competing and have

some jealousy they get to compete in front of a home crowd? It is an

advantage. The Scottish crowd has been cheering for everybody. They

are so knowledgeable about the sport. They know each athlete. Who

is good. They were cheering for everybody. It shows how educated

Scotland is about sport and how excited they are to see great

athletes competing. You have got them onside! A big

company and from an Olympic and Commonwealth champion. They can also

deal with the weather and the stadium is great because for the

most part, the crowd are covered and protected from the rain, but as a

weed is committed J find it difficult, Blessing? -- what is

athletes, did you find it difficult. It was wet. But I just went for it.

I was not worried about the weather because if you want your medal, you

have two run like every other person. Can I ask one thing, once

you've finished, after the lap of honour, I was besieged by hearts

fans. -- once you've finished. Did you do a celebration to certain

members of the crowd? People asked me to do it but I hope to the

cameras would not catch me. A lot of people asked me to do it if I

crossed the finish line. That was the last thing on my head but I did

go round a couple of times and met fans. That is a famous victory. It

was captured. You have not been on Twitter, but it is all over with you

doing that. That was the score when hearts beat Hibs in the Scottish Cup

Final. So one half of Edinburgh is very happy with you this evening.

The whole of Scotland is hot new with you. -- happy. I am so relieved

to have run well and is to give something back because the support

has been phenomenal and it was nice to get on the podium with the

Scotland flag. I like your nails, by the way. My friend Elaine did them.

Let's give them a round of applause. A massive thank you to them, Kirani,

Blessing, Eilidh Child. Back to Hampden Park now 4-wheel power! --

for some wheel power. Has she got the pace at the end? It

is going to be a tight finish and the Australian might do it. Gold for

Australia. An excellent bronze for Jones.

That is a bronze medal for Jade Jones, of England.

He heard the roar of the Olympic Stadium and now they are roaring for

him at Hampden Park, and Dave Weir is coming home to a handsome victory

in the 1,500 metres. He is Commonwealth champion, and what a

victory. Six Gold medals at Paralympics, six at the world

champions, six times a winner of the marathon and now a Commonwealth

Games champion. Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson has

joined us, along with the athlete she coaches, Bronze medallist

in the Para 1500m, Jade Jones. And the new Commonwealth champion,

Dave Weir! Well done! That is a medal you are

proud to have isn't it? Very proud. Can I say a big happy birthday day

to my three-year-old son tomorrow? You are going straight back. I am

leaving at four o'clock in the morning. He was still a baby at the

Paralympics. He sat on my lap in the last race in the marathon and now he

is watching on television and he cannot wait for me to come home.

Jade, are you going to pay tribute to your coach? Of course! She should

pay tribute to you! It was an amazing race and it is so hard to do

objective commentary. But willing her on. Amazing tonight. I should

point out she has a faster is biased I had at the peak of my career, so

no pressure! -- a faster personal best. This was your first experience

of senior international competition and you get a medal. It was

unexpected, that was the aim. There was no pressure. I had a clear head

going into it. The weather did not help much. How difficult is it? It

is difficult, it affects wheelchair racing because you slip a lot. But

it rains for everyone. You said in commentary that it changes how you

start. Yes, people have to make decisions and gloves, rubber, how

much glue, sometimes you put too much on. It affects so much. You can

have different people performing than you might expect. You are at

the beginning of your career. Dave, you are towards the end of it and it

could have ended before this week because you were considering

retiring. After 2012, I had a big thing of what I needed to do and

that is the reason I carried on, to get that round my neck. I do not

feel I am getting slower so when my speed starts to drop, I will think

of retiring. There is still a good three or four years in me. So 30,

definitely? -- so reopen, definitely? -- 30. Why did you think

after 2012? Because London was special. What I

did was unbelievable, I did not expect four Gold medals even though

I trained for every event. I wanted one in my home Games and to get

four, that is why I changed my mind because I got my races with massive

margins. Previously, I was winning or losing by millimetres. I thought,

this is it, they have to give it 100%. That is what made me think

after. I had a chat with Jenny, Jenny Archer. And I started the

academy as well so I could not just retire. I had to keep promoting the

sport and my Academy, to get the youngsters coming through. For the

European Championships, we have six athletes from the Academy

representing rate written and four for the juniors next week, so they

did an amazing job in two years -- Great Britain. That keeps me going.

There is no better way to inspire people than by being the best, and

you are and you are a worthy champion and I am delighted you did

not retire. You said, I will keep going and I will be in Brazil. In Q4

coming into night and congratulations to David and Jade!

-- thank you for coming in tonight. Let's talk to some champions. I am

delighted to say we have a heptathlete Commonwealth Gold

medallist here and her husband, an Olympic decathlon champion. Give a

big round of applause to Ashton Eaton and Breanne Theisen-Eaton.

Are you something a cocktail? That is definitely not my drink! I will

look after that cocktail. Congratulations. Thank you. How did

you find competing in Glasgow? I loved it, the crowd was great,

tonnes of people and the stadium was awesome! And the coach? I am the

emotional support coach. She came away smiling and I saw a lot of hard

work and to fruition so I am very excited. Give us an insight into

hard work and how often you train. Every part of our life is training,

at the track, recovery, eating, sleeping. We do train a lot, five,

six days a week, a couple of sessions each day. Probably 30 hours

a week? That is a fair assessment but I do think a lot of the time

when we are not on the track, we say rest is training. And a lot of

people do not see 90% of the stuff, just 10% competition and that

mountain of effort is put elsewhere away from the television. A lot goes

into it but we like that other 10% we get to see here.

races at home! We are competitive. We compete with pointless stuff,

like who can make the best coffee in the morning. Just little things,

video games. One morning we were brushing our teeth and Ashton said,

I beat you! That is not really a good thing to beat me on! Are you

thinking of something else to beat him with? Some new competition? I

don't know. We were bored. I thought, what will be fun?

Computing. Especially being athletes, we like competition. --

competing. We are both resting. We want to take a big break this year

because 2015-16 will be very long years so we are taking in a few

months to rest. Will you go in the capital on or 400 hurdles in real?

-- Rio de Janeiro. Thank you both very much. Let's go to the

weightlifting because the big boys are in time tonight.

Representing Wales... Look at the size of this man! That is unique.

Representing Canada. Absolutely no question about that. Damon Kelly,

you do not argue with this man. What a perfect day for Damon Kelly. The

flag error for Nauru at the opening ceremony. No hesitation. -- bearer.

All he can do is watch that weight. Gutsy lift. He is so confident. If

he lifts this, he is the champion. And Canada have regained the title.

When I watch that, I think they must really hurt the next morning! Coming

over to the map, which is filling up with places that look like Ollie.

Ollie is reaching the latter stage of his challenge to find someone to

talk to from all 71 Commonwealth nations and territories.

As of now, there are six remaining. I had to make this morning,

including Rwanda at the cycling time trial. The rise of cycling there is

a real story. As is cycling in this part of the world. And the

Commonwealth Games has been a chance to see how widespread that has been.

Hello, Guernsey. I am Karina. Joe Watts. I will be delicate about

this. Everyone here is over a certain age? Over 40? OK... Yes?

That was not the smoothest ride, I had a technical problem when my

handlebars came loose. The nerves were just incredible. I had never

done anything on this scale before. She works as a hypnotherapist and

run through own company. You will be back in four years? The Gold Coast?

With the Zimmer frame race! We can add Guernsey. The first time they

have had a full road cycling team at the Commonwealth Games. Where else

did you go? Weightlifting this afternoon. Scott Wong from

Singapore. He took us backstage! He did not really feature with the

medals but he is from Singapore. He did not feature but another man is

from Nauru. The defending Commonwealth champion. He lost his

title. He was furious but he still stopped for a chat.

Commonwealth champion. He lost his title. He was furious but he And he

said that in weightlifting, in Nauru, he had to win at all costs

and for a 26 stone man, he was furious. Tomorrow? Tuvalu have been

playing hard to get, which is getting annoying. I will stick into

the village and try to get to them. And the British Virgin Islands and

also New Zealand or on the list. Over here and here. If you want to

catch up with all of the stories, go to the website and online and

Twitter. Let us get some of the other headlines from today.

performance. Into the ground and they did ask for mercy. What were

conditions I? We have seen some horrific weather at Kelvingrove. It

was not too bad. Very dry for most of the game. The rain only started

towards the last end. We got off quite sharpish. Does that change how

you must bowl? Just the conditions. And the pace of the green. Luckily,

we missed that and we dealt really well with the conditions. We had a

lot of tweets last night. A lot of people think that the Commonwealth

has changed the image of bowling? I think young people have always

played bowls but it is always in the background and we don't get the best

press, people think it is for older people so hopefully we are changing

that and it is really a game for everybody, not just young or old

people. It is just amazing and anybody can play it. It is so

inclusive. You have got that message across.

APPLAUSE. I am sitting down with the England team who won the bronze

medal. Paul, you deliver that final bowl. Amazing skills. Well done.

Another viewer is amazed, some people are out of this world with

talent. You may take that credit. Yes, it was the last three ends, we

were four shots down. And we managed to bowl it together. When it came to

that tie-break, having to bowl that bowl, remember that and I remember

much afterwards! Just seeing that go into the ditch and ending up, we

managed to win the game. I didn't know if I could have even bowled my

last one because I was certainly very much there at that point. Did

you tell him what to do? It was a joint decision. And he completed her

30. How did you take this up? I took up pulling after competing in other

sports for many years. Because a person with a similar disability did

bowls with his feet. That is how. And you are the reason we're getting

such an incredible response. It was remarkable to watch. Brilliant

stuff. We will have some grappling night. Wrestling...

The English woman was just too tricky in the end. The first gold

medal of the night. It goes to Kamari. Onto his back. That is it.

It is over. And he wins for Scotland. He pushes out for the

point. It is all over. India get another gold medal. He slams into

the mat. My goodness! The bronze medal goes to the Nigerian. Two

points. It is all over. The Welsh woman certainly ditch are very best.

Cameron and get the bronze medal. -- certainly did their very best. She

cannot. Canada beats the Indian for the gold medal. The gold medal

final, the last final. And that is it. Ten points clear. Canada or the

gold medallists. And here is the medal table. England

got six gold medals today. Australia got one of them.

APPLAUSE Dan Keatings gold... Wales have exceeded their target. Of 27

malls. And a quick look at what is coming up tomorrow. That is a live

shot outside. That is the River Clyde. Tom Daley is an action

alongside James Denny in the synchro final. And Usain Bolt will be here

in the relay feet -- heat. Tiffany Porter and in the boxing, all the

semifinals. Home Nations boxers already guaranteed a medal and you

will get all of that action across the BBC. So much love on social

media. It was amazing this evening, Eilidh Child, typically understated

Scottish superstar. Paula Radcliffe - a privilege to be at Hampden Park

tonight. Thank you all very much for being here. We will see you

tomorrow. Goodbye!
