Olympics gymnastics: Louis Smith pipped to pommel horse gold

Great Britain's Louis Smith wins silver on the pommel horse, missing out on gold by the narrowest of margins after his overall score tied with Hungary's Krisztian Berki.

Both Smith and Berki scored 16.066 but Berki was awarded the Olympic gold for a fractionally higher execution score.

Smith's GB team-mate Max Whitlock put in an incredible performance, picking up a score of 15.600 to claim a bronze medal in his first Olympic Games.
