duncan scott silver was part of the gold winning team along with matt richards.hey were first imposed a month ago. it has been widely expected but it does not make it less frustrating or disheartening, the further extension by four weeks of the lockdown in sydney and surrounding areas. it started as a two week lockdown at the end ofjune and extended to a five—week lockdown. we know it will be extended until about the end of august. with the trajectory of the cases, the upward trend experts are saying it could go until september. what is really concerning is the number of cases remains persistently high. new south wales has recorded about 177 cases today locally acquired, the highest number since the beginning of the outbreak. 46 of them were infectious while active in them were infectious while active in the community. all in all sydney has recorded more than 2500 infections, the biggest number this year. that is really what is concerning people. many of the people i have spoken to feel the restrictions here haven't come early enough and they were not strict enou

commentator: tom dean and duncan scott _ just delivered gold and silver. nto tokyo? i always knew it would take the swim of a lifetime to beat duncan. at 200, you know, he's a world—class athlete. so it was always going to be tight, but i think you've got to go into it backing yourself for that win. did you know the moment you touched the wall, or did you have to wait and look at the board? yeah, no, i did have to wait and look, because i breathe to the right on my event, i could see the korean and the brazilian swimmer, i couldn't see duncan, but i knew he has a strong last 100, so i thought, "just get your head down, kick as hard as you possibly can and make sure you don't mess up this finish." swimming is right up there, very, very competitive, so this is a major achievement, right, by britain? this is the pinnacle of our sport. you know, we don't have a world cup like football, or other sports which have other major events, this is it for us, and if we can put on a good show here, i think it's going tojust bring up the sport within the country and get i

dean, along with duncan scott, james guy and matthew richards, came within three hundredths of a seconde dream, finally after 25 years, it's pretty emotional. these four lads here have the best freestyle in the world, my team—mates getting first and second, just the way things have progressed, racing michael phelps in rio, now we're the olympic champions, it's a dream come true. so, another night to remember for great britain's men in the pool, and there's been success in the rowing as well. the team have won their first men's quadruple sculls medal after taking silver. harry leask, angus groom, tom barras and jack beaumont held off a late charge from australia and poland to secure second place behind the netherlands. let's have a quick look at the medal table. japan are still top, with 13 golds now, followed by china, who've overtaken the usa. that swimming gold took great britain's tally to five golds, but they've dropped one place, behind australia. so, what can we look ahead to on day six? joining me now from tokyo is our reporter sarah mulkerrins. sarah, it's the women's all around

it's been another day of medal success in the pool for team gb, and a third medalfor duncan scott whoour by 200m freestyle relay alongside team—mates tom dean, james guy and matt richards earlier in the week. luke greenbank has his first olympic medal, he won bronze in the 200m backstroke. afterwards, he said, "my first memory of swimming was watching the beijing olympics so it's always been an ambition of mine, it's a dream come true." well, after that final, the man who won silver, america's ryan murphy, said the race was "probably not clean" after he lost his olympic title to russian evgeny rylov. murphy later said he was speaking about doping generally, whilst luke greenbank himself called it �*a difficult situation'. i don't know if it was 100% clean. that's_ i don't know if it was 100% clean. that's because _ idon't know if it was 100% clean. that's because of— i don't know if it was 100% clean. that's because of things - i don't know if it was 100% clean. that's because of things that i i don't know if it was 100% clean. | that's because of things that have happened — that's be

it'll be all eyes on duncan scott.ities for other swimmers in the pool, but let's move across to the rowing because it's the final day of the medals being awarded there. vicky thornley is going in the women's singles sculls. she qualified third—fastest for that final, and the men's eight are also going looking to defend their gold from rio five years ago. however, they have to come through repachages system there, so we will see how they get on. not quite medals today for the women's football, but their tournament could be over if they don't manage to get through their quarterfinal meet with australia. and golf is also under way. it's going to be day two, so not quite medals there, but they have to keep themselves in contention. paul casey had a very good opening. he's on four—under. that's four off the lead. tommy fleetwood a further three shots back on one—under. and we're looking forward to the start of the athletics on day seven? absolutely. it's the big focal point. once we get through the swimming in the olympics

duncan scott, can you get the world record? it's gold to great britain. well done, guys.how wonderful was it to have that as well and to get a second? like a dream come true. the four guys i shared the podium with were the four best guys i could possibly imagine. swimming's right up there, very, very competitive, so this is a major achievement by great britain. this is it for us, and if we can put on a good show here, i think it's going tojust bring up the sport within the country and get it into kind of the limelight a bit more, which is where it should be, and kind of bring it into the centre of people's focus, because team gb and british swimming are here to stay. tom dean speaking to dan roan. itv has said there are "no current plans" for another series of the x factor. a statement from the broadcaster came following reports in the sun that creator simon cowell has axed the programme after 17 years. the newspaper said the programme is being rested for at least five years. the x factor first aired in 2004 and was last shown in its usual format in 2018. it's helped laun

in the pool, gb continued to excel, few more so than duncan scott, gold and silver already at the gamesthe finalfew metres, agonisingly behind the chinese swimmer. this is a team where success inspires success. this was luke greenbank�*s pep talk before his 200 metres backstroke final. whatever was said, it was enough as he powered through for a bronze. a week ago, most pe was carrying the flag for team gb at the opening ceremony, yet he was carrying the final british hopes of gold at the rowing regatta, the men's eight, their last chance. in the closing stages, they were still in it, but onlyjust. bronze is how they enter their games. ended their games. and that is what bryony page takes home too. her trampolining routine was for a few moments at least enough to see her into the lead. in the end, she finished third as the medals keep coming for team gb. we've also seen the start of the athletics, and all eyes on the women's 100m heats. dina asher—smith began her bid to become the first british women to win a 0lympic individual sprint gold. and she made it safely through with a solid ti

there was more success in the pool as duncan scott won a silver in the men's 200 metres individual medleyne. she led the competition after her routine, but was pushed down to third as china took gold and silver. there was also a bronze for the men's eight in rowing. but there'll be no medal for team gb�*s women's football team. they've been knocked out after losing 4—3 after extra time to australia in the quarterfinals. ellen white scored all three of team gb�*s goals. they were 2—1 up with a minute to go of normal time, but sam kerr equalised here for australia to force extra time, in which caroline weir saw her penalty saved. it changed the momentum of the game, with two quick goals just after. this 3—2 from mary fowler. kerr then made it 4—2. white made it 4—3 to complete her hattrick, but team gb couldn't find an equaliser and australia through to the last four. so, let's have a look the medals table heading into day eight. great britain remain sixth overall with six golds. china are top, ahead of hosts japan. ben stokes "will take an indefinite break from all cricket with immediate e

the policy was the deliberate destruction of the indian people. duncan campbell scott infamous in canada, now he was a famous poet in his day, he was in charge and he said that his job at the department of indian affairs was to solve with a final solution. i was what he said, the final solution to the indian problem, that there would not be an indian problem in canada. and the problem was that the indian people were not leaving their land. they were not disappearing. so we will find a huge mass graves, particularly, i think in western canada, many of those will have died from tuberculosis that wasn't again accidental. that was deliberate government under funding the churches giving off, putting children at risk because these children's lives did not mean anything to government. we will find other graves for children who died from abuse in my region . the children who ran away that their parents never to learn, they didn't even bother to tell. in some cases what happened to the children children just were taken for simply as my colleagues say, by the police, by the church. and some of the
