Swimming: An 'angry' Michael Jamieson wins 200m silver

Michael Jamieson says anger helped him to a silver medal in the 200m at the World Short Course Swimming Championships in Turkey.

The Olympic silver medallist only just squeezed into the final in an outside lane after disappointing qualifying heat and admitted to BBC Sport's Nick Hope that he had reservations about swimming again after such a poor morning race.

However Bath-based Jamieson, 24, battled on to the podium in a new British record time of two minutes and three seconds.
