the olympics. again and he can beat and again at the olympia-— again and he can beat and again at the olympics. quite a lot of drama! as can be dramatic— the olympics. quite a lot of drama! as can be dramatic that _ the olympics. quite a lot of drama! as can be dramatic that this - the olympics. quite a lot of drama! as can be dramatic that this has - the olympics. quite a lot of drama! as can be dramatic that this has an | as can be dramatic that this has an added edge to it, doesn't it? it's interesting because i can't if it was a heater assembly but i saw them and they were in the same race running up to tonight final but a couple of days ago, and there was a lot of commentary wasn't there? ingebrigtsen, the commentary that i saw saying that ingebrigtsen was really pushing it, really running out front because he was somehow lacking in confidence. when it came to challenging her. that lacking in confidence. when it came to challenging her.— to challenging her. that is interesting _ to challenging her. that is interesting because - to challenging her. that is interesting because kerr l to challenging her. that is - interesting because kerr does say that ingebrigtsen is insecure. so, for example, during the war championship race and in the semifinals of that race come ingebrigtsen overtook and as just as the crowd and he thought that was a weakness. he needs the attention, he

is insecure, there's an argument that so ingebrigtsen after—care makes all these comments and ingebrigtsen says well i could win blindfolded, i could beat him 98 times at 400 and i will definitely mint when the lipid final so... after the semifinal, see reference that he was going to settle scores on tuesday. a lot has been said that he was to settle it. we on tuesday. a lot has been said that he was to settle it.— he was to settle it. we are about to be at a time. _ he was to settle it. we are about to be at a time, could _ he was to settle it. we are about to be at a time, could you _ he was to settle it. we are about to be at a time, could you think- he was to settle it. we are about to be at a time, could you think will. be at a time, could you think will win? i be at a time, could you think will win? ., ., ~ ., , . ., be at a time, could you think will win? ., . ~' . , . ., , win? i would make a prediction but, it will no win? i would make a prediction but, it will go right _ win? i would make a prediction but, it will go right the _ win? i would make a prediction but, it will go right the most _ win? i would make a prediction but, it will go right the most likely. - thank you very much for your thoughts. you are watching bbc news, to stay with us. well let's get some more reaction now from the olympic fan zone here in london where our reporter emily brown has been speaking to the british olympic swimmer,

tom dean, who won a gold medal in the men's 4x200 metre freestyle in paris, earlier this week. we are one of the team gb phantoms we've been watching part of the action, many of the athletes have been the uk. we argue with tom dean, an olympic gold medallist, he is fresh from paris.— fresh from paris. how are you feelin: ? fresh from paris. how are you feeling? good, _ fresh from paris. how are you feeling? good, bit _ fresh from paris. how are you feeling? good, bit tired, - fresh from paris. how are you | feeling? good, bit tired, we've fresh from paris. how are you - feeling? good, bit tired, we'vejust stepped off the eurostar and i walked to here. it was cool because there were loads of volunteers along there were loads of volunteers along the way and they were congratulating me but i saw my mum, she met me of the train which is really special so not feeling good and i've been doing duty which is very special and fans have been great i'm looking forward to going home. tell have been great i'm looking forward to going home-— have been great i'm looking forward to going home. tell me about you and what it's like- — to going home. tell me about you and what it's like. it _ to going home. tell me about you and what it's like. it was _ to going home. tell me about you and what it's like. it was really _ what it's like. it was really special. — what it's like. it was really special. it _ what it's like. it was really special, it would _ what it's like. it was really special, it would be - what it's like. it was really special, it would be to - what it's like. it was really | special, it would be to relay what it's like. it was really - special, it would be to relay and it was the first time a relay gold medal has been defended by the same quartet either swimming or athletics which was a call stack that they were told. it is really special,

there was favourites going into this game is, we have had a really great running the full season and we knew that if we swam the right races we would be able to get the gold and defended so it was not there and it was the only gold medal at golf and swimming, we did really well because it was the only goal begot. walking home with a gold medal, it is a special feeling.— special feeling. your family out there supporting _ special feeling. your family out there supporting you, - special feeling. your family out there supporting you, aren't i special feeling. your family out. there supporting you, aren't they? they were watching dino on the shed. has that feel? it was critical. that was my sister's idea to spell my name but they weren't out in tokyo so i went to golden to took it and i couldn't share that with them so when i saw them, i stood on the podium, the flag was getting raised and was every young swimmer dreams and was every young swimmer dreams and a really, really special moment in my career is a lot to my right and my family and friends are there so it doesn't really get much better than that. it was, this is an evening i will never forget it was an honour to do that in front of them.

and then more showers through the early hours as we get closer to the centre of this low pressure, which is approaching the uk. but elsewhere it's mostly clear, particularly in the east central areas and further south, and whether you're in the north or the south, temperatures will be about the same early in the morning on wednesday between 10 and 13 celsius. so here's that low pressure with its cluster of showers sweeping you across western and northwestern scotland. showers also further south into northern england, northern ireland, some also around merseyside, and blustery winds further north. in fact, gusts could approach or exceed 40 miles an hour. further south, it scattered fair weather clouds. a decent breeze but pleasant enough 23 in london, around 18 in glasgow and then on thursday, as one area of low pressure pulls away, the next one comes in. this is going to bring extensive layers of cloud initially to many western and south—western parts of the uk. so it starts off quite bright in the east. but then heavier rain will spread into north—western england,

across northern ireland and eventually into parts of scotland. but it does look as though east anglia and the south east could just about stay dry through most of the day and the far north of scotland too. so that's thursday. how about end of the week? well, that low pressure pulls away in its wake. still, a weather front drapes across scotland, so that means thicker cloud and some showers, but also quite blustery weather. once again, 40 mile an hour winds to the south of that. it's going to be a breezy day, but a generally sunny day. and despite the wind, still up to about 25 degrees, i think in london and typically the low 20s further north. so that's the week. how about the weekend? after a fairly changeable week, it does look as though things gradually through the weekend could actually turn very warm across many parts of england. and there are signs that we could get something really quite hot early in the week, but it's just a low chance for now. bye.
