:03:11. > :03:13.techniques were rather diffdrent. England held their own
:03:14. > :03:16.against Jamaica from gun to tape. But, in the end, another stdllar
:03:17. > :03:32.Bolt performance left a credible There was a split second whdre I
:03:33. > :03:36.thought I could run past hil. But he ran away from me and there was
:03:37. > :03:40.another split`2nd when I thought I was watching the best athlete of all

:04:07. > :04:09.to a fairly quiet night. Thd breeze will drop and we might see one or
:04:10. > :04:19.two showers, but generally, clear spells. For most of us, a bright
:04:20. > :04:24.start tomorrow. We have the risk of a scattering of showers. Sunny
:04:25. > :04:28.spells coming through away from the showers and temperatures into the
:04:29. > :04:34.late 20s. Less breezy than today, as well. Then we have an unsettled
:04:35. > :04:36.theme. Some bright conditions in the middle of the week, but the risk of
:04:37. > :04:41.heavy and thundery showers. Finally, we've seen how

:05:20. > :05:24.Scotland and Northern Ireland. We saw our whole rash of showers across
:05:25. > :05:30.Scotland and Northern Ireland, some thunder and lightning swirling
:05:31. > :05:36.around. There was a huge curl of cloud, indicative of an area of low

:05:46. > :05:51.rain with it. For England and Wales, may be a shower around the coast but
