The first Olympic gold for Team GB as Adam Peaty triumphs in the pool.

:00:00.:00:10.

COMMENTATOR: Absolutely fantastic, Adam Peaty takes the gold medal by

an absolute Street. The 21 year old even surprised

:00:18.:00:19.

himself as he smashed his own world record to win the 100m breaststroke

:00:20.:00:22.

- he called it the perfect race. I can't actually

:00:23.:00:26.

believe it's happened. I'm going to have to slap myself,

:00:27.:00:29.

I think, a few times. It's the first time a British man

:00:30.:00:32.

has won an Olympic swimming title since Adrian Moorhourse

:00:33.:00:35.

to the BBC News at 6. It is a remarkable victory that's

brought Britain's first gold Adam Peaty smashed his own world

:01:47.:01:49.

record to win the 100m breaststroke The 21-year-old from Uttoxeter -

:01:50.:01:56.

who as a child was afraid of water - said he was stunned by his triumph

:01:57.:02:01.

and it was dream come true. Minutes later - Britain's Jazz

:02:02.:02:06.

Carlin took silver in the women's 400 metre freestyle giving Team

:02:07.:02:09.

GB their second medal of the games. From Rio, our Sports Editor,

:02:10.:02:12.

Dan Roan, reports. As a boy, Adam Peaty was afraid of

:02:13.:02:24.

the water, he certainly has conquered that fear now. No one in

:02:25.:02:30.

history has ever swum faster, not in the 100 meter breaststroke, as he

:02:31.:02:35.

closed in on Olympic glory, the battle was not with his rivals, but

:02:36.:02:40.

against the clock. The gold mine represents his own world record,

:02:41.:02:44.

like his opponents, it did not stand a chance. COMMENTATOR: This is

:02:45.:02:51.

brilliant, fantastic, Adam Peaty takes the gold medal by a absolute

:02:52.:02:57.

Street, wonderful world record. History will show he won in 53 point

:02:58.:03:02.

seven seconds, but this is a triumph which has taken much longer than

:03:03.:03:07.

that. It is surreal, to get Team GB's first gold but this is the

:03:08.:03:11.

product of seven years hard work. I came here tonight, took the first 50

:03:12.:03:16.

and then came back with everything I've got. Everything that has got me

:03:17.:03:21.

down in the last few years, but I've done this for my country and it

:03:22.:03:27.

means so much to me. Back home this was a moment not be missed, his

:03:28.:03:31.

swimming club in Derbyshire. And certainly not here in Uttoxeter,

:03:32.:03:38.

where from her living room Mavis urged on her grandson. Back in Rio

:03:39.:03:44.

Adam Peaty's parents left to wonder at how much their boy had grown up.

:03:45.:03:49.

It really came to me when he was on the podium and the national anthem

:03:50.:03:55.

was played. That brought tears to my eyes, I thought, oh my goodness, my

:03:56.:03:59.

son is up there, because we have watched the Olympics before, but

:04:00.:04:03.

never really imagined, even though I knew this was his dream and I

:04:04.:04:06.

thought he would achieve it at some point, but not this soon. This was

:04:07.:04:11.

the last time the British man won an Olympic swimming gold, Adrian

:04:12.:04:14.

Moorhouse 20 is a go. Today he told me that Adam Peaty was in a class of

:04:15.:04:22.

his own -- 28 years ago. He has got everything right, you search for the

:04:23.:04:26.

perfect swing, I swam so many times in 15 years and I only did that

:04:27.:04:30.

twice, and last night he managed to string it altogether. In just the

:04:31.:04:35.

second day of competition Team GB did what was beyond them in London

:04:36.:04:39.

2012, a gold medal in the swimming pool. Adam Peaty's astonishing

:04:40.:04:44.

performance last night establishing him as one of his country's top

:04:45.:04:47.

sports stars and these excess did not end there. Minutes after he

:04:48.:04:55.

claimed his first -- the first medal for Team GB in the NMB games, Jazz

:04:56.:04:59.

Carlin, winning silver medal in the 400 metres freestyle. I was sitting

:05:00.:05:03.

watching Adam Brayton in world record and win the gold and that was

:05:04.:05:10.

a special feeling -- braking. I had to stay relaxed and stay calm before

:05:11.:05:14.

the race. I'm gobsmacked. I can't blame the time, as well. I'm so

:05:15.:05:20.

happy. The most decorated Olympian Michael Phelps was at it again,

:05:21.:05:24.

winning his 19th gold medal after helping the United States clinched

:05:25.:05:27.

the four by 100 meter freestyle relay, but it was the one which Adam

:05:28.:05:31.

Peaty held which set swimming a light and ignited Britain's medal

:05:32.:05:33.

charge at these Olympics. So on Day 3 of the Olympics,

:05:34.:05:39.

let's see how the medals America is off to an early lead,

:05:40.:05:42.

with a haul of 12 medals - Italy and China are

:05:43.:05:46.

in second and third - both with three golds too -

:05:47.:05:49.

and eight medals overall. Further down the table

:05:50.:05:53.

is Great Britain - in eighth place. So with all to play for,

:05:54.:05:56.

here's our correspondent Natalie Pirks with a round up

:05:57.:05:58.

of the best of the day's Conditions were so choppy that the

:05:59.:06:09.

rowing was cancelled yesterday, and today it was all calm, just not for

:06:10.:06:16.

Kazakhstan. No issues for Britain's men's eight one fine for the final

:06:17.:06:19.

with a best time. It is all looking very good with Team GB and the

:06:20.:06:26.

rowing side. Remarkably Olympic champions Helen Glover and Heather

:06:27.:06:29.

Stanning have not lost a single race in five years, but Denmark gave them

:06:30.:06:33.

a real run for their money in the heats of the women's pair. Well, by

:06:34.:06:41.

gosh, don't they live for it? Plenty of thrills and spills in the

:06:42.:06:50.

eventing today. William Fox Pitt was leading the individual competition

:06:51.:06:52.

for Great Britain after the dressage and he and his stallion picked up

:06:53.:07:00.

penalties in the cross-country. Remarkable that he is even riding at

:07:01.:07:06.

all, given just ten months ago the 47-year-old was in and injures

:07:07.:07:10.

Tacoma after suffering a head trauma enabled -- was in an induced coma.

:07:11.:07:19.

It is great to be up there, and to clock it up, that is a blow, but I

:07:20.:07:25.

hope it is OK, life goes on, so far Team GB are not doing what we dreamt

:07:26.:07:32.

of. The Dutch cyclist involved in a sickening crash in the women's road

:07:33.:07:36.

race yesterday has tweeted from her hospital bed and she said she is now

:07:37.:07:39.

in the hospital with injuries and fractures but will be fine.

:07:40.:07:45.

She has given Michelle Obama a fencing lesson but this was her life

:07:46.:07:58.

defining moment. Becoming team USA's first Hijbab wearing Olympian. Here

:07:59.:08:08.

at the gymnastics we are hours away the men's all-round team final.

:08:09.:08:12.

London was a watershed moment for British gymnastics, the men winning

:08:13.:08:17.

bronze, and last year they went one better winning silver at the World

:08:18.:08:19.

Championships and they are expected to get a medal but they only managed

:08:20.:08:24.

fifth place in qualification and that means they will start on the

:08:25.:08:28.

rings and end on the pommel, which is not ideal, but they have pommel

:08:29.:08:32.

horse specialists including Whitlock. Hopefully they will save

:08:33.:08:35.

the best for last. It's the longest rail strike

:08:36.:08:39.

in Britain since 1968. Hundreds of thousands of rail

:08:40.:08:41.

commuters suffered major disruption today as a five day

:08:42.:08:43.

strike by Southern Rail The company, Govia Thameslink -

:08:44.:08:45.

which runs services between London and Sussex and Surrey -

:08:46.:08:50.

is embroiled in a row with the RMT union over plans to remove

:08:51.:08:56.

conductors from trains. I've been doing this for about 20

:08:57.:08:58.

years and this is the worst They are cancelled and delayed every

:08:59.:09:14.

single day, it is ridiculous. Delays, cancellations and

:09:15.:09:24.

overcrowding have become routine. Even a first-class ticket does

:09:25.:09:25.

not guarantee a seat. Each evening we don't get home, we

:09:26.:09:33.

are delayed for an hour, two hours, on a 40 minute maid. Maybe I will

:09:34.:09:38.

get to see the kids before I get home to die, maybe I won't. --

:09:39.:09:42.

before I get home tonight. It is all down to people

:09:43.:09:47.

who are at best incompetent. This is what the dispute

:09:48.:09:54.

is all about, who should Southern wants the drivers to do

:09:55.:09:58.

it so the guards can But the guards' union

:09:59.:10:01.

is worried that will mean There are also concerns

:10:02.:10:04.

about safety, even though many trains operate already

:10:05.:10:08.

with just a driver. We want to make a change to improve

:10:09.:10:10.

services to customers, to get staff on board to be able

:10:11.:10:13.

to better look after our customers and give them a better service

:10:14.:10:16.

and the RMT are finding that very Last month the company cut 350

:10:17.:10:30.

trains from their timetables because of problems, and today they reckon

:10:31.:10:37.

60% of their services have run, but the frustration of passengers was

:10:38.:10:41.

voiced on the picket line. RMT has done everything it possibly can to

:10:42.:10:47.

minimise the inconvenience but customers who have to suffer lies

:10:48.:10:51.

being told by the company -- for customers. What about a five-day

:10:52.:10:57.

strike? They have had to suffer a terrible service provided by this

:10:58.:11:01.

train company. This evening commuters march into uncertainty

:11:02.:11:06.

once again. I'm going to three bridges rather than little Haven

:11:07.:11:09.

which is where I live and my parents are having to pick me up. There are

:11:10.:11:13.

no trains running from my own station and so I've got to get a bus

:11:14.:11:18.

from the station I am getting back to, so not good. And there is the

:11:19.:11:23.

possibility of more strikes, this is not a happy railway.

:11:24.:11:29.

The Labour leadership contest has been thrown into confusion

:11:30.:11:32.

A judge found in favour of five new party members who had accused

:11:33.:11:37.

the Labour's National Executive Committee of freezing them out

:11:38.:11:40.

Here's our political correspondent, Alex Forsyth.

:11:41.:11:50.

As he campaigns across the country, the momentum behind

:11:51.:11:53.

And now another boost for his bid to keep his job.

:11:54.:12:00.

The High Court has ruled thousands of new Labour members can vote

:12:01.:12:03.

It's not clear, but most are thought to back this man.

:12:04.:12:11.

There are now 540,000 people in Britain who are members

:12:12.:12:13.

The judge seems very clear that his decision was that all members of the

:12:14.:12:26.

party have a right to vote in the leadership contest and surely that

:12:27.:12:28.

has to be the right decision. The Labour Party's ruling committee

:12:29.:12:32.

had said any member who joined after the 12th of January

:12:33.:12:35.

could not have a say, affecting almost 127,000

:12:36.:12:40.

people, about a quarter Now, the court has said

:12:41.:12:41.

the new joiners can vote. Like Christine, one of five people

:12:42.:12:46.

who took the case to court, she joined Labour in June

:12:47.:12:49.

because of its current leader. And you know that what he says, he's

:12:50.:12:51.

actually going to deliver on it. How do you feel you can

:12:52.:13:00.

now vote for him? Really happy, because that is

:13:01.:13:03.

what we joined up for. But the challenger is still upbeat,

:13:04.:13:08.

convinced he has support and calling Labour wants to be a mass

:13:09.:13:11.

movement and at our best We should be nothing other

:13:12.:13:18.

than pleased that there are so many people taking part in what is

:13:19.:13:24.

an incredible democratic exercise. I'm just going to carry on doing

:13:25.:13:26.

what I'm doing. The fact a court had to rule

:13:27.:13:32.

on an internal Labour matter is a sign of just how troubled

:13:33.:13:35.

the party is. This decision could be appealed,

:13:36.:13:37.

but if the ruling stands it is likely it could bolster

:13:38.:13:41.

Jeremy Corbyn's chance of victory, and if he is re-elected leader it

:13:42.:13:48.

will only deepen divisions. For all of his support,

:13:49.:13:51.

many MPs think Labour is unelectable under his leadership and some fear

:13:52.:13:53.

this contest could cause a split. There are tough times ahead

:13:54.:13:56.

for the party. STUDIO: At least 70 people have been

:13:57.:14:04.

killed in a suicide bombing in the explosion in

:14:05.:14:07.

the city of Quetta. Many of the victims

:14:08.:14:12.

were lawyers and journalists. A faction of the Pakistani Taliban

:14:13.:14:14.

said it was behind the attack. Police investigating the murder

:14:15.:14:19.

of the black teenager, Stephen Lawrence in 1993,

:14:20.:14:21.

have released a new photograph of a witness and have appealed

:14:22.:14:23.

for him to come forward. The image has been digitally

:14:24.:14:26.

enhanced from a CCTV camera. 18 year old Stephen was stabbed

:14:27.:14:28.

to death in an unprovoked racist attack as he waited at a bus stop

:14:29.:14:31.

in South East London. Our home affairs correspondent,

:14:32.:14:37.

Tom Symonds is at Scotland Yard. Two men jailed in

:14:38.:14:39.

2012 for his murder, why are the police issuing

:14:40.:14:41.

this photo now? They believe that four other men

:14:42.:14:50.

were involved and they are still investigating, back in 1993, the

:14:51.:14:53.

used evidence from witnesses to produce and even it image of a man

:14:54.:14:58.

with a distinctive the shape on the back of his jacket. -- e-Fit. They

:14:59.:15:03.

have gone on to release CCTV footage which apparently came to light in

:15:04.:15:06.

2014 after a review of the case. V-shape. That shows a man in a wine

:15:07.:15:12.

shop, an off-licence, again with a distinctive V-shape on the back of

:15:13.:15:16.

his jacket, that image has been digitally and harm. What police are

:15:17.:15:21.

trying to do is work out if he is the same man that witnesses

:15:22.:15:24.

described and is portrayed in that e-Fit picture and they would like to

:15:25.:15:30.

know if he could say anything at all about the murder of Stephen

Lawrence. The first gold for team GB

record in the 100m breaststroke. he's hailed a hero

:15:42.:15:44.

by the family of the teenager Do you know how many calories

:15:45.:15:52.

you consume every day? Large numbers of Britons are under

:15:53.:16:28.

estimating how much they eat, according to a new study Four

:16:29.:16:35.

minutes of this and you And the problem is it's affecting

:16:36.:16:43.

how the government tackles the big problem of obesity. Official

:16:44.:16:47.

statistics show that the number of calories people say they're eating

:16:48.:16:49.

at home has gone down over the years. Yet - over the same period -

:16:50.:16:53.

figures show that overall the number of people across the UK who are

:16:54.:16:56.

obese has risen. So what's going wrong? Here's our Health Editor Hugh

:16:57.:17:02.

But working at the right diet and the correct exercise

:17:03.:17:07.

to manage our weight is never straightforward.

:17:08.:17:09.

As I discovered this lunchtime, but many of us know how many

:17:10.:17:11.

Chicken Caesar salad with a Coke. And that's about it.

:17:12.:17:17.

And how many calories in that? I've no idea, I'm afraid.

:17:18.:17:19.

What have you had to eat and drink for lunch?

:17:20.:17:24.

Tuna salad, chocolate bar, bag of crisps and a can of Coke.

:17:25.:17:27.

How many calories in that? I've no idea.

:17:28.:17:28.

Do you know roughly how many calories you eat each day?

:17:29.:17:32.

LAUGHTER I try not to look because I find, I have gone

:17:33.:17:36.

through stages of counting calories, for a couple of weeks,

:17:37.:17:39.

and I become a bit obsessed and I don't think it

:17:40.:17:41.

For tackling obesity the calculations are important,

:17:42.:17:51.

for example, the 200 calories in a standard chocolate bar are used

:17:52.:17:54.

up after 42 minutes of walking or 22 if you run.

:17:55.:17:56.

There are 172 calories in a bowl of cereal and that takes 31 minutes

:17:57.:18:00.

a blueberry muffin has 265 calories, which will take 48 minutes of

:18:01.:18:12.

walking, 25 of running. The report today says that official figures on

:18:13.:18:17.

calorie intake are too low, because we underestimate or are not honest

:18:18.:18:21.

about what we eat and drink. The authors of the reports say that

:18:22.:18:24.

working out in the gym and other types of exercise are important, for

:18:25.:18:29.

policy makers trying to tackle obesity what really counts is what

:18:30.:18:32.

people eat and getting them to cut the calories. The advice is, if you

:18:33.:18:38.

are looking to reduce obesity, calorie consumption is a really

:18:39.:18:43.

important place to look first, there are other things, like physical

:18:44.:18:45.

activity, but calorie consumption will make a real difference. That

:18:46.:18:51.

advice comes with a government obesity strategy due within the next

:18:52.:18:53.

few months, there are important choices to be made and it is likely

:18:54.:18:59.

to focus as much on food and how it is marketed as it will on fitness.

:19:00.:19:10.

BBC News has obtained exclusive photographic evidence,

:19:11.:19:11.

showing for the first time, British special forces

:19:12.:19:13.

They've been working alongside moderate rebel fighters

:19:14.:19:16.

of the New Syrian Army in the battle against so-called Islamic State.

:19:17.:19:19.

The BBC has obscured the faces of the special forces soldiers

:19:20.:19:22.

This report from our Middle East Correspondent,

:19:23.:19:24.

Quentin Somerville, contains flashing images.

:19:25.:19:28.

:19:39.:19:44.

force, only a dozen men. The threat here is grave, they have come laden

:19:45.:19:48.

with weaponry, to fight their way out of any trouble. These exclusive

:19:49.:19:53.

pictures obtained by the BBC are from June, immediately after a Isis

:19:54.:19:58.

attack killed nine moderate Syrian rebels at this space. An ISI suicide

:20:17.:20:19.

comment on pictures of British special forces. But he does

:20:20.:20:26.

acknowledge their help. TRANSLATION: We are receiving special forces

:20:31.:20:34.

equipment from the Pentagon, as well as our support. -- air support. Here

:20:35.:20:45.

it is in action, an American fighter taking out another IS car bomb. On

:20:46.:20:50.

more than one occasion, British racial forces have crossed the

:20:51.:20:53.

border here in Jordan but further east of here into Syria to help the

:20:54.:20:57.

new Syrian army, few groups have received such close and personal

:20:58.:21:01.

support, from Britain and from America. That closeness has led to

:21:02.:21:06.

ridicule from the Islamic State, and there has been setbacks on the

:21:07.:21:09.

battlefield, but still, this small band of fighters continues to

:21:10.:21:14.

endure, and continues to receive intensive support from the West.

:21:15.:21:19.

After viewing these pictures, the Ministry of Defence said that it

would not comment on special forces operations, these soldiers unlike

A 17,000-tonne drilling rig has run aground after being blown ashore

:21:44.:21:48.

The Trans-ocean Winner, which has diesel on board,

:21:49.:21:51.

was under tow west of Lewis when it was hit by severe storms

:21:52.:21:54.

Stornoway Coastguard said there were no personnel

:21:55.:21:57.

on board the rig and there was no risk to life.

:21:58.:21:59.

The search for two teenagers missing off the Welsh coast is expected

:22:00.:22:02.

got into difficulty in the water at Barmouth beach

:22:03.:22:07.

They were part of a group of about 500 visitors

:22:08.:22:10.

from the Somali and Yemeni communities in Birmingham.

The Catholic priest, Dr Edward Daly, who famously waved a blood-covered

:22:20.:22:21.

handkerchief in TV footage of the Bloody Sunday shootings

:22:22.:22:24.

Dr Daly helped lead protestors to safety in Londonderry

:22:25.:22:27.

in the news footage which was shown around the world.

:22:28.:22:30.

He later served as the Bishop of Derry, as our Ireland Correspondent,

:22:31.:22:33.

VOICEOVER: In this city's history of conflict, there is no event more

:22:34.:22:49.

notorious than bloody Sunday. No image more iconic than this, a

:22:50.:22:53.

Catholic priest, waving a blood-soaked handkerchief, as people

tried to carry a teenager to safety. The footage of Dr Edward Daly

He did not have a weapon... Just a young boy of 15, he was running, I

was running. 13 people were shot dead by British soldiers on that day

:23:25.:23:30.

in Derry, in January, 1972. Dr Edward Daly's attempt to save Jackie

:23:31.:23:36.

is something that his family say they will always be grateful for. He

:23:37.:23:41.

was with Jackie in his dying moments, he was a hero that day,

:23:42.:23:46.

let's face it. He tried to attend to Jackie. After almost 20 years as

:23:47.:23:52.

Bishop, he was awarded the freedom of the city, near years remembered

:23:53.:23:56.

not just for that moment, when he was caught in the middle of gunfire,

:23:57.:24:00.

but his long work afterwards, for peace.

Gaming is an industry that's worth 70 billion pounds worldwide.

:24:14.:24:15.

Some of the biggest titles such as Grand Theft auto and more

:24:16.:24:18.

recently Pokemon Go have enjoyed more financial success than most

:24:19.:24:21.

The UK has its own video-games version of Hollywood

:24:22.:24:24.

that's given birth to a host of the biggest gaming

:24:25.:24:26.

Forget Los Angeles, as far as games design is concerned, Guildford is

:24:27.:24:48.

where it is at, these tiny offices are the home of Hello Games, they

:24:49.:24:53.

are about to release one of the most anticipated games of the year, it

:24:54.:24:58.

could be Britain's latest video game blockbuster, if all goes as

:24:59.:24:59.

predicted. VOICEOVER: It is a game

where players can explore strange Flying around a universe so big it

:25:07.:25:09.

would take billions of years Most video games these days are made

:25:10.:25:13.

by movie-sized teams. What is most surpising about this

:25:14.:25:20.

ambitious slice of sci-fi simulation is that just 11 designers have

:25:21.:25:22.

employed clever programming techniques to create

:25:23.:25:24.

this huge title. We do, we use the computer

:25:25.:25:26.

to build it. We create a bunch of rules, a set

:25:27.:25:28.

of maths, the computer runs that. We effectively teach the computer

:25:29.:25:31.

the rules that we think we need to build a universe and the computer

:25:32.:25:34.

goes off and builds it for you. This town is something of a hotbed

:25:35.:25:42.

of games design talent. the brains behind the

:25:43.:25:49.

Little Big Planet series of titles who are based

:25:50.:26:01.

just around the corner. And several instalments

:26:02.:26:03.

of the Need For Speed series were also created locally

:26:04.:26:06.

by a company called Criterion. But both of those companies have

:26:07.:26:08.

been purchased by huge foreign games outfits and there is some worry that

:26:09.:26:11.

Britain's brightest talent I think we see a lot of foreign

:26:12.:26:13.

investment and I think we will see

:26:14.:26:16.

more from the likes of China. In one sense it is a very positive

:26:17.:26:19.

thing. The message that the UK has

the best individuals and creative talent in the world

:26:24.:26:27.

a cottage industry by some, while others believe

:26:28.:26:31.

the small size of its games studios makes them more nimble

:26:32.:26:33.

and more innovative. Size, in other words,

:26:34.:26:35.

isn't everything. Though the creators of the enormous
