desperately disappointing for laura muir. she was so close and it has been a frustrating day the team gb. it has, ever since laura muir broke kelly holmes‘ british 1500 metres record, she‘s been regarded as the best chance the country has of a medal, outside of sir mo farah. she‘s had a fantastic breakthrough season, especially indoors, the 24—year—old scottish athlete but in truth, she was always up against it a highly competitive field in the 1500 final. faith kipyegon, as you saw in the report, she won the race and caster semenya, the south african who many feel has an unfair advantage because of her naturally elevated testosterone levels are denying laura muir a bronze medal and she adds to a growing list of british athletes, the likes of holly bradshaw and sophie hitchon, katarina johnson—thompson, who have finished just outside the medals and it means after the fourth day of the world championships, the british tea m world championships, the british team only have one solitary gold medalfrom sir mo team only have one so

and we have two lauras there tonight, laura muirand laura we have two lauras there tonight, laura muireightman. both will have different views of what will have different views of what will result in a good championships for them. laura muir has a lot of pressure, but she has started to deliver for pressure, but she has started to deliverfor me. two pressure, but she has started to deliver for me. two titles indoors. she will be going in with her own strategy, but she's up against the world record—holder, sifan hassan. and caster semenya, who is an immense 800m runner. she has looked really strong in the 1500. almost the unknown quantity. we haven't seen her run 1500 to much. she has caused a bit of a stir in the event, because nobody is sure what ability he has over that distance. so i think we will see a very quick time tonight. that is the only where they can run the sting out of caster‘s legs. so it will be very tactical, but if laura muir runs her own race at the same time and runs with the guts we are used to seeing, we could see her on the podium. and laura weightman, brilliant

laura muir squeezed through asa final. laura muir squeezed through as a fastest loser.o content for the gold medal. —— content. expect them to be very strong. laura muir, somewhat expected of her for the future. that is the message we are getting. yes, it was a great night last night, but we are hearing from british athletics that this is a squat in transition, on course to do great things at the olympics in 2020. let's look ahead to another one of those finals. chris o'hare is in the final of the men's1500 metres. williams to get to a final on the final evening, especially the 1500, which will be so tough. —— brilliant to get to a final. kiprop is in that as well. if he can win, the kenyon will match the legendary hicham el guerrouj, who won four championship golds. rewind five years to that amazing london olympics in this very stadium. summoning echoes of london 20 to have come flooding back during the last ten nights. five years ago, robbie grabarz was one of those medallists in the highjump. he gave us medallists in the highjump. he gave us is scaring qualification

seve has to keep going, it's a very very tired laura muir coming in. going to be 1359 and it is good to in anxious wait. —— 13.5 nine. —— when the new predictions are absolutely right you know, steve cram said it all, that 1500 metres obviously took it out of this. laura muir looked absolutely spent there. she left to wait for the second heat of the 5000 metres. i think laura muir does find out exactly how hard we world—class 5000 metres is. ethiopia, kenya all those african nations on the top of their games. she will wait and see if she can get into the final of that. one of the finals that we are looking forward to most is the final of the 400 metres women's hurdles, and the british women's team captain is competing. she has just british women's team captain is competing. she hasjust completed —— qualify for this is the slowest qualifier but hopefully the crowd can give the lift and push that she needs. delilah mammoth in the us is the reigning 0lympic needs. delilah mammoth in the us is the reigning olympic champion and the reigning olympic champion

particularly bust up in the 5000 metres, laura muir.00 metres, wonder if she had been picked to bronze by katarina syringe. in the top five, crossing the line there. not in the top five. looks to have taken it out of her. she had to wait to see if that would be good enough. look, she was exhausted. she collapsed to the ground there, spread—eagled. she waited to see what happened in the next tweet. here comes that next seat, it was a pretty slow heat. mccolgan finished in that top five, so she qualified automatically. that's all laura muir also go through automatically, so great news for both of them. a lush mccolgan was absolutely delighted. she spoke to philjones afterwards. i'm so much more confident this year. training is gone so well, have not had major injuries like previous years. it has all come together at the right time. today was amazing, to have the crowd behind me about la st to have the crowd behind me about last 150. i thought i cannot let this go now. it was different, london 20121 was so scared, today i was pumped up. th

we are keeping everything crossed and all eyes on laura muir. the 1500, she is up against the olympic champion faith kipyegon, dibaba, world champion caster semenya. it is going to be a really tough final, but laura muir has improved from the heats to the semifinal, so there is an outside medal chance, as there is in the hammer. sophie hitchon took everybody by surprise in rio last year, the first british woman to win a hammer metal bronze. it tookjust the one throw to qualify for the final that starts at seven o'clock this evening. the favourite is from poland. she is the world record—holder and she is way out in front of anyone else, but expect it to —— sophie hitchon to be in the mix. we will also get a glimpse of eilidh doyle, the british team captain, going in the first heats of the 400m hurdles. let's hearfrom the 400m hurdles. let's hearfrom the british skipper. you look at races over the season and there has beena races over the season and there has been a different winner in the diamond league. i have beaten these girls one week and the

aggressive running from laura muir. who are those moving into the spotlight? with a tough training programme. she set five british records in the last 12 months, but she wants much more. breaking those british record, i am very happy to have done that, i am sure down the line there will be somebody coming up and breaking my record. the medals are things that stay with you for ever. uk sport has targeted six to eight of those medals, a big ask for a squad juggling injuries. but the bigger picture focuses on the next generation. born just a few miles from the london 0lympic site, never natheneel mitchell blake is the second fastest 200 metre runner of all time. the 23—year—old believes now it is time for new athletes to write their own chapter in british sporting history. people are seeing a changing of the guard in sport. whatjessica ennis—hill, mo farah, what they have done is remarkable, there are feats cannot be replicated, they have made their own legend in their own right and people want to come here and build our own legacy. it is always hard to say goodb

just inches separated the likes of kyle langford and laura muir from separated the likes of kyle langford means uk sport's target of six medals looks a distant dream, especially with greg rutherford injured. it is difficult to win medals in athletics. it is a fa ct of to win medals in athletics. it is a fact of life. other sports, with olympic sports who win a lot of gold medals, it doesn't take anything away from their achievements, but not as many people or countries participate. this is the hardest sport in the world to win a major title. athletics received the highest amount of funding. but they think it is money well spent for the future. they are in transition, the older group have gone and the younger ones are coming up. the world championships of the world championships but overall i think we have put on a good show.|j championships but overall i think we have put on a good show. i think it is good experience but in a few yea rs, is good experience but in a few years, the gold medals. coming. the british athletes are trying their best, but at the moment, their best isn't good enou

elsewhere, british eyes on the track were focussed on laura muir who was running in the semi finals of women's 1,500 metres. she comfortably qualified for the final. she came in second behind faith kipyegon. laura weightman also made it through her semi final. it was really surprising. i felt really good. a girl went down at one point. yeah, the 1500 is scrappy. i just wanted to get that final and i have done that now. katarina johnson—thompson has work to do today if she is to win a medal in the heptathlon. an impressive run in the 200 metres lifted her back up to fourth in the standings, and helped to repair some of the damage done after a poor high jump earlier in the day. i am not going to lie, it was very hard. i went back to the hotel and had a bath. there was a lot of crying. it was only event two. last year, after getting 1.98 in thejumping, i'm not going to let that happen again. there are six gold medals to be won today, including in the women's heptathlon. we'll be watching katarina johnson—thompson. the first event is this morning at 10am — the long jump. later on, holly br

laura muir is competing today, what will our athletes be thinking about?ing abounm seems to be brightening up now, but weather conditions do have a part to play. some athletes like a wet track, i remember haile gebrselassie used to ask for the track to be watered before he did world record attempts, but i never necessarily liked running in the rain. but it does factor into it, a lot of it is in the warm up, making sure you don't get wet and cold. the worst championships weather—wise with the commonwealth games, we were so wet, andi commonwealth games, we were so wet, and i didn't bring a change of socks, but unfortunately the race went out a! the weather conditions do affect it, it affects preparation, but these athletes are so experienced, and they know how to deal with certain things. when you are talking about the british athletes, that is something we are all really proud of, and the head of british athletics talked about it, it is not just british athletics talked about it, it is notjust about british athletics talked about it, it is not just about wh

in the 1500 metres final we have laura muirand laura the 1500 metres final we have laura muir and laurascovered that 32 children between the ages of three and five have been referred to the nhs over the last year because they‘ re unhappy with their biological gender. in total this year 216 children under the age of 10 have been to the nhs's only gender identity service for under 18s — that figure has more than doubled over the last two years. "tra nsgender" means someone who doesn't identify as the gender they were assigned to when they were born. they may wish to be seen as a different gender or no gender at all. over the last two and a half years we've been following two of the uk's youngest transgender children, lily and jessica, who are nine and ten. we played you ourfull film earlier. here's a short extract. i feel 99% girl and 1% boy. i always had to complain and say, "oh, i don't want to put trousers on," but now i'm a girl i'm like, "yeah, i get to put tights on, dresses on," all those things. so tell me what makes you happiest at the moment. everyone's always looking after me,

also in the track, the semis of the 1500 metres and laura muir. a very exciting session.ifinals and finals, potentially, for bolt. alistair brownlee is out of the rest of the triathlon season. hopefully, he says, surgery will allow him to prolong his career. that is obvious but for now. now time for click. this week: the sun's the star, as it defeats ice cream. powers roads. and dazzles geeks. take them off guys, you're indoors. they're ugly. huge. and they ruin the landscape. but we do kind of need them to get from a to b. but sometimes a road can be more than just a road. and that's the idea behind a french government—backed initiative using the massive space given over to the transport network to also capture the sun. through solar roads. i mean, look at this road, what's it doing right now? it's looking straight up the sky. and it's estimated that even busy roads can see the sky for 70—90% of the time. but it's not all plain... sunning. the problem with putting photovoltaic cells into roads is the slightest bit of pressure, the slightest bend, and... so the cells are

the future queen of british athletics is laura muir.g with mccolgan. enough for gold. muir, sixth, mccolgan, 10th. it gold. muir, sixth, mccolgan,10th. it was always going to be a big ask. but there are more opportunities tonight for england. could they hit the target they wanted yesterday? britain took 0lympic bronze in the four x 400 metre relay in rio last year. the usa could take some beating, though. but whenjamaica's injury struck yet again... and hamstring or something... silva was in their sights. —— silver. emily dymond took it home. the seventh successive world medal in the event for britain. 0ne gold medal was all it would take to make sure britain hit their target of six. the men's four x 400 relay was the final event of the championships. martyn rooney made sure it would be there as. talk about leaving it until late. in the end, though, it does not matter how it comes, success always tastes sweet. natalie pirks, bbc news, at the london stadium. he couldn't end his time on the track on top, but usain bolt was given an emotio

perhaps surprisingly, we thought the ethiopian would do the double but i spoke to laura muir and askedre bronze. i'm really happy, it was really tough, i'm pretty inexperienced in this event so to come sex in my first world championships in this event, i'm happy. championships in this event, i'm happy--- championships in this event, i'm happy. —— to come sex. championships in this event, i'm happy. -- to come sex. we have the discus, men's high jump, happy. -- to come sex. we have the discus, men's highjump, more updates in the next hour or so. 0llie, thank you. let's move on to football. after a couple of days of surprise and drama in the premier league, today went as expected with manchester united and tottenham hotspur both starting their season with victories. manchester united beat west ham 4—0 at old trafford. paul pogba completed this scoring in the final minute. it was a good performance with confidence level is high, with the team coming in the second half, winning1—0 and playing to score goals and to win in a more co mforta ble goals and to win in a more comfortable way and i

the future queen of british athletics is touted as laura muir.lgan. a stunning sprint finish by kenya's hellen 0biri was enough for gold. muir came sixth, and mccolgan tenth. well, that was always going to be a big ask for laura and eilish, but there are more medal opportunities for britain tonight. could they be about to hit a target that before yesterday had looked completely out of their reach? britain took 0lympic bronze in the 4x400 metres relay in rio last year. the usa, though, would take some beating here. but when jamaica's injury curse struck yet again... commentator: and jamaica have pulled up. she's got a hamstring or something. ..silver was in their sights. the usa won by a country mile, but emily diamond brought it home. and, hanging on for silver, emily diamond takes it. it was britain's seventh successive world medal in the event, and look what it meant to them. one more medal was all it would take to ensure that britain would hit their target of six. the men's 4x400 relay was the final event of the championships.

the women's 5000 metres laura miller is back on track afterjust missing a medal in the 1500 —— laura muirheat but by the end laura was struggling, trailing in seventh, exhausted. she's scraped through to the final but has a disappointment in the 1500 metres taken its toll? the might ultimately to this man. isaac ma kwa la ultimately to this man. isaac makwala may have taken the pundits but it is guliyev who has the title. andy swiss, bbc news. our sports editor dan roan is in the london stadium. so it wasn't to be for isaac makwala. that's right, but i think it will still be the greatest story of this championships, he came here relatively unheralded and by tonight he is one of the worst won most well—known athletes in the world. it has become a saga, visitors forced withdrawal through illness and then this remarkable scenes when he was denied access to the stadium by the iaaf officials and then his reinstatement. he's received great sympathy and affection. a shame he could not finish with a win. a rather embarrassing episode for the iaaf, the way it was handled. wayde van niekirk was als

laura muir is on tonight and the rest of the british girls going in the next round of the 1500 metresle indo—european champion, she will bejoined by sarah mcdonald, jessica judd and laura weightman as the all bid to reach monday's final. let's just see if we can have a very, very quick chat. i talked about the re—allocation of medals. ten years you have been waiting after you were cheated out of bronze. a brilliant moment. i was so honoured to receive the medal in front of this home crowd. i am so grateful for everyone that has made this happen tonight. i was really emotional and overwhelmed. it is bittersweet to not have got the medal ten years ago when i was lying on the track and thought i had failed when it should have been a proud moment. this made up have been a proud moment. this made upfor have been a proud moment. this made up for it, having my two children there who weren't born when i did there who weren't born when i did the race. it was very emotional. i am very grateful. we haven't got any more time to chat, but maybe we were later this evening. many thanks. that is it f

also in action will be laura muir, who was inspired to take her athletics career to the next level when goes in the 1500m semifinals, along with jess judd, laura weightman and sarah mcdonald. now, let's look at the rest of the sport, and it's delicately balanced after day one of the fourth and final test against south africa at old trafford. england captain joe root made a half—century for his tenth test match in a row, and ben stokes hit 58, but he was outjust before the close. england will resume later this morning on 260—6. well, you always want 400 in the first innings of any test match. i think, having lost benjust at the close, if we can get 350 i think we would take that right now. 350 plus, definitely, you always want to try to get. maybe that last wicket might knock a few off it. paris saint—germain fans will have to wait a little longer before they see world record signing neymar in action. the world's most expensive footballer will miss his side's first match of the season today after his documents failed to be lodged in time. the brazilian forward will, though, be presented
