south-east of england wales. but the south—east of england is still looking dry on wednesday with some sunshine. there's temperatures are going to below across the board, a little below normal for this time of year. thanks, darren. and that's bbc news at six. the news continues here on bbc one, as now it's time tojoin our colleagues across the nations and regions for hello and welcome to sportsday — i'm jane dougall. the golden girl of gymnastics, but simone slipped up on the floor — coming uncharacteristically second. no golds for team gb either today — but there was a dramatic bronze in the mixed team relay triathlon. plus, two medals in the men's and women's kayak cross finals — we'll talk you through them shortly.

it is another big night here at the stop to france as keely hodgkinson goes for gold in the women's 800 metre final. also coming up on sportsday. tributes have been pouring in for the former england and surrey cricketer graham thorpe who's died at the age of 55. in all surely he was good, and west indies he was good, at home he was goodin indies he was good, at home he was good in sri lanka he was good so i think he has got, he covered the bases. welcome to the programme. lots to come later, including two bronze medals and a silver for team gb so far on day ten, but before that — everything this woman touches usually turns to gold, but today simone biles missed out

on the top spot after some mistakes in her floor routine. and earlier the american gymnast fell off the beam. biles still took silver on the floor for an astonishing iith olympic medal in total. she left her third and possibly last olympic games to a standing ovation. our sports correspondent katie gornall is outside the bair see arena. katie, she is human after all! she is and she came into this competition today with this or of invincibility around her after winning those three gold medals earlier in paris but first up it was the being final and we know what a fiendishly difficult bit of apparatus that is just ten cm wide, it takes no prisoners. biiefs apparatus that is just ten cm wide, it takes no prisoners.— it takes no prisoners. biles made a few mistakes _ it takes no prisoners. biles made a few mistakes and _ it takes no prisoners. biles made a few mistakes and fell— it takes no prisoners. biles made a few mistakes and fell off _ it takes no prisoners. biles made a few mistakes and fell off of - it takes no prisoners. biles made a few mistakes and fell off of the - few mistakes and fell off of the being, not the only one to do so but left her out of contention for a medal with a gold going to the

a huge favourite for gold in this but the score was set by brazil's rebecca on drug today, the popular brazilian here who had a really energetic and entertaining routine —— andrade. biles�*s routine which followed afterwards followed afterwards with the huge height and power comes risk and she stepped out of bounds twice and ultimately that cost her a gold medal and more drama afterwards as well, andrade could not believe it when she saw the scores, but also biles�*s team—mate, jordan childs had her score upgraded to bronze so everything was going on on this final day which means biles assigns off your with a silver medal, orfourth of assigns off your with a silver medal, or fourth of the games here, her 11th olympic medal in total and after the mental issues that plagued her in tokyo, it's nothing short of

remarkable. it was not quite the fairy tale ending be expected, but these games really do belong to simone biles. controversy in the boxing rumbles on with both boxers who were banned from the world championships last year guarenteed an olympic medal. the international boxing association says both imane khelif and lin yu—ting of taiwan failed eligability tests for the women's category. however, the ioc has allowed them to compete and algeria's khelif fights jan—jaem suwannapheng of thailand in the semifinal of the women's 66 kg tomorrow. khelif has called for an end to — what they call — �*bullying' surrounding their participation in the women's boxing. translation: i sent a message to all ofthe translation: i sent a message to all of the peeple — translation: i sent a message to all of the peeple of— translation: i sent a message to all of the people of the _ translation: i sent a message to all of the people of the world, _ translation: i sent a message to all of the people of the world, to - of the people of the world, to uphold the olympic principles according to the olympic charter. to refrain from bullying all athletes because thing has effects, massive

effects. it can destroy people. can kills peoples thoughts, spirit and mind. and it can divide people because of that i asked them to refrain from bullying and that is it. the iba is the governing body that previously banned the pair from competing in female categories at its world championships. however, because the iba is no longer permitted to administer olympic boxing, different eligibility criteria are being applied to these games and khelif and yu—ting are both allowed to compete in the women's category. our sports editor dan roan was at an iba press conference earlier — we'll speak to him shortly but first we can hear the views of the iba chief executive chris roberts who said he could not disclose the results of gender eligibility tests. there is no conspiracy theory. we do not have _ there is no conspiracy theory. we do not have a _ there is no conspiracy theory. we do not have a conspiracy theory. that is hot _ not have a conspiracy theory. that is not what — not have a conspiracy theory. that is not what it is about. we had two letters _ is not what it is about. we had two letters today from the loc is, let's look at _ letters today from the loc is, let's look at the — letters today from the loc is, let's look at the similar linkages between

president of the iba appeared via video link today went on as a personal tirade against the ioc president, thomas, a lot of frustration with in the iba that they have been stripped of their status. they are the rightful organisation to run the boxing competition here. but it's not divide that has really led to this issue around the gender eligibility of these two fighters because the iba say one thing which is that these tests were contacted, blood tests it was revealed today which flagged an issue with the fighters's genetic dna chromosome makeup which they believe rules them and for women's competition. the ioc which now runs the park for competition here which says another which as far as their rules are concerned, which effectively are, it's as you are a female by birth on your passport, then that makes you eligible for the

women's competition. no need for any tests. they are more than welcome to be part of it. and i think that lies at the heart of this dispute. what the iba promise today was more details on the nature of those tests and what exactly they found but they claim that the national debate committed bees from the two fighters from algeria and taiwan prevented them from doing so. in truth, we did not learn an awful lot to what you said, at times was a chaotic press conference, one of the most i've ever attended. conference, one of the most i've everattended. but conference, one of the most i've ever attended. but also pressure on the ioc as well for their policy affirming out gender eligibility criteria decision making to the respective sports. some would like the ioc to provide more and have a blanket policy and they leave until they to the world be a compromise when it comes to fairness in safety and women's competition. ioc says it wants to balance that with

inclusion. one thing for sure is that this case threatens to overshadow the remainder of these games given that both imane khelif and lin yu—ting are within a shot of gold medals, they are guaranteed a medal, they are two wins away from gold in two cases so it is unlikely this is going to go away anytime soon. thank you. it is been a quiet day medal wise routine gb. but they won bronze earlier today in a dramatic triathlon mixed team relay race. alex yee, georgie—taylor—brown and sam dickinson had led for most of the first three legs, with beth potter so close to winning the sliver at the end. germany's laura lindemann crossed the line first. potter and the usa's taylor knibb had the same time, but the usa were given silver after officials reviewed the finish—line photo. and so team gb had to settle for bronze after a thilling finale to the competition. of course there's a little bit this appointment with that, but the

to that open. keely hodgkinson the world olympic and commonwealth silver much less and has always been the bridesmaid, never the bride, and this feels like the moment. she comes into the race very much the favourite with the fastest time in the world this year she said she is in the form of her life and said it would be absolutely life—changing to win here tonight. she told me in room when she became a european champion in a few months ago that she is big into manifestation. she has intentions to herself crossing the finish line by my shoulder here in paris a million times, apparently, every time she wins the race. herfamily and apparently, every time she wins the race. her family and friends have already seen something here tonight and you guys don't have much longer to find out if she can get the better of mary moraa the canyon, —— canyon, the former olympic champion is not here because she fell in the olympic trials everyone very excited

received an mbe in 2006 and has been replaced on the england team the year before. a career in coaching followed notably with england. graham thorpe's outstanding endings remain vivid in the memories of england. earlier i spoke to former england captain and cricket commentator david gower and began by asking him how he would remember graham thorpe. looking at some of the for bench that has been shown today already it is a great reminder of the talent. i think the outstanding thing about grandma was he was good at everything. looking at the paceman plank against the west indies and in the mid and early 90s you have the great spinners of the worlds, both of the top two he got runs against

so that gives you a range of his talent. i have a chat with him in the west indies about playing fast bowling and whatever i said i think you probably ignored and played it better because we each have our own methods and triggers on ways of being in at the right to name —— time and as he said the figures are very good indeed is the tells us a lot of the story. 16 very good indeed is the tells us a lot of the story.— lot of the story. 16 centuries a century on _ lot of the story. 16 centuries a century on his _ lot of the story. 16 centuries a century on his debut - lot of the story. 16 centuries a century on his debut in - lot of the story. 16 centuries a century on his debut in the i lot of the story. 16 centuries a - century on his debut in the ashes, which he described him as one of england's best batsman. intern; which he described him as one of england's best batsman. very much so. it was england's best batsman. very much so- it was a — england's best batsman. very much so- it was a very — england's best batsman. very much so. it was a very consistent - england's best batsman. very much so. it was a very consistent force. i so. it was a very consistent force. government has the odd glitch, for certain and i think the only country he failed to make a mark against possibly india and in fact he came back from one tour of india i think in 2001 after a test match around there. but australia, at home, and sri lanka he was good so i think he covered the bases. and also he was a very good fielder. a popular man

because, anyone who is that good becomes popular automatically. but he fitted into the team ethic. he became a batting coach with england and was credited with spotting some big names that we are now very familiar with.— big names that we are now very familiar with. the key to coaching his empathy- _ familiar with. the key to coaching his empathy- of _ familiar with. the key to coaching his empathy. of course _ familiar with. the key to coaching his empathy. of course when - familiar with. the key to coaching his empathy. of course when he l his empathy. of course when he got the experience that graham had, it is the ability to get into someone's mine. everyone is different. but as the tough thing about coaching. horn the tough thing about coaching. how do ou feel the tough thing about coaching. how do you feel he _ the tough thing about coaching. how do you feel he will be remaindered, not this is a fantastic cricketer, but as a person? —— remembered. his but as a person? -- remembered. his sense of but as a person? —— remembered. f! 3 sense of humour, his reputation, it helps with your own nerves, and helps with your own nerves, and helps with your own nerves, and helps with that is endemic in the dressing room because when people can contribute to the overall confidence of the dressing room. so people who can be upbeat, bubbly, who could take the key out of pressure situations. people who can get runs in the pressure situations.

someone like graham would have done that. players are wearing black armbands at today's hundred matches between welsh fire and southern brave in tribute to graham thorpe. a minute's silence was observed by all four teams before the men's match got underway. southern brave are batting first and they're currently 39 without loss after 30 balls in that one, you can follow the match on the bbc sport website and app. earlier, welsh fire beat southern brave by seven wickets in the women's match. vivienne miedema says it wasn't the easy option to go to manchester city after spending seven years at arsenal. the wsl record scorer was speaking at her first news conference for the club after signing on a free transfer. miedema said she turned down approaches from abroad to stay in england. she acknowledged that the opening game of the season would be memorable.

city begin their campaign at the emirates against arsenal — miedema's former club and the home of beth mead, her partner. it's obsolete going to be a special game for me. i will be playing in the emirates, thejoy stadium, but when i started to speaking to the city i got really excited, mostly by the way they play and eventually, i think for myself i want to challenge myself and i know this wasn't an easy option. obviously with england as well but i got excited with the idea with being part of the city team and that is why in the end i followed my gut feeling and went for city. let's have a quick look at some of the other football news stories today. rangers will play either salzburg or fc twente in the champions league play—off if they overcome dynamo kyiv. tomorrow's first leg is in poland. meanwhile, hearts take on kryvbas kryvyi rih or viktoria plzen in

the europa league play—off. chelsea's opponents for the conference league playoff will be either portuguese side sc braga or servette of switzerland. those two sides will meet in the europa league third qualifying round, with the losers dropping down to face chelsea. but conor gallagher won't play a part in that game — the midfielder has agreed to join spanish side atletico madrid, for a fee of £33 million. the england international is expected to complete a medical and contract signing with the spanish club, ending 18—years at stamford bridge. from september, the home of english rugby union will go by a different name. twickenham stadium, will be renamed as the allianz stadium, in a sponsorship deal between the rugby football union and insurance company allianz. the rfu say the deal will be beneficial for grassroots rugby. let's take you back to paris because it's the first day in the track cycling and it's been an extraodinary few minutes with the world record

in the women's team sprint being broken three times. team gb are guarenteed silver or gold. they broke the world record twice. katy marchant — alongside her team—mates emma finucane and sophie capewell will compete in the gold medal sprintjust after seven o'clock. just time before we go to look at where team gb are in the medal table. they're in 6th place with ten golds. hoping for more tonight in the cycling and possibly on the track with keely hodgkinson favourite in the 800 metres. that's all from sportsday. keep across all of the olympics on the bbc sport website. good night. hello. it's been a fairly cloudy day, with some rain here and there, and really quite warm and humid across central and eastern parts of england. how about this evening and tonight?

a chance of rain with a weather front moving across the uk. and here it is. it's a cold front. behind it, we have fresher atlantic conditions spreading in. ahead of it, the winds are coming in from the south. a lot of cloud, quite warm and humid, particularly across east anglia, the south—east, into yorkshire as well. temperatures have been around the mid 20s. so the forecast, then, for tonight shows that weather front crossing the uk. for a time, it could be quite heavy — that rain — across the lakes, into south—western scotland. but to the south, by the early hours, i think that rain front should start to fizzle out, so that means dribs and drabs of rain from, say, lincolnshire, through central england, towards central, southern england. behind it, clear skies, quite fresh in belfast — 8 degrees. ahead of that weather front, still a bit of warmth left there— around 16 or 17 degrees in one or two spots. now in summary, tuesday will start off sunny, clouds will bubble up

through the course of the afternoon. showers are expected, particularly across the north—west of the uk. quite brisk winds as well. still some of that warmth left over there in norwich — 25 degrees. for most of us, it's the high teens or the low 20s. now, the low pressure is still with us on wednesday. quite a few isobars, those pressure lines, so that means gusty conditions with showers moving through northern ireland, scotland, affecting some irish sea coasts as well. i think the sunnier skies will be the further east, south—east and further south you are. but on those winds, gusting 30 to perhaps even 40 miles an hour around some coasts on wednesday. and the temperatures bang—on average for the time of the year — 18 in glasgow, about 20 in liverpool and birmingham, and in london, maybe a couple of degrees higher than that. so that was wednesday. here's a look at thursday. a little bit of uncertainty in where this rain is going to be. but the broad message is southern parts of the uk could end up being quite cloudy on thursday, with some outbreaks of rain. still, temperatures in the low 20s. i think the sunnier weather will be across scotland. here in aberdeen, some sunshine, about the high teens. so let's have a look at the forecast, then. the outlook from midweek

onwards, into the weekend — our typical british summer with a variety of weather icons there and temperatures, well, quite warm in the south, up to about 25 degrees. that's it from me. you're watching bbc news, i'm martine croxall. our top story tonight — police say 378 people have been arrested so far after a week of violent disorder.

the prime minister says the criminal justice system is being ramped up to cope with the number of arrests. after days of violent riot in england and northern ireland. the violence started after the southport stabbings — this evening, a vigil to mark a week since three children died. also tonight, turmoil on global financial markets amid fears about a slowdown in the us economy. and all eyes on keely hodgkinson, as she goes for gold in the 800m final. good evening, welcome, i'm martine croxall. the prime minister has promised to "ramp up" the criminaljustice system to deliver what he called "swift sanctions" to people who have taken part in riots across england and northern ireland — as well as those who helped to incite them online. sir keir starmer held an emergency cobra meeting this morning,
