  3. Gold medal - Yassine Gharbipublished at 21:48 British Summer Time 18 July 2017

    Men's 200m T54 final

    That's it - no medals for Britain on day five at the London Stadium.

    Yassine Gharbi of Tunisia storms to a championship record victory in 24.86 seconds.

    Silver goes to Kenny van Weeghel of the Netherlands and Leo Pekka Thati takes bronze.

    Britain's Richard Chaissaro rallied in the home straight but he had to settle for fourth place, ahead of compatriot Nathan Maguire who comes in sixth.

    Maguire does come up with a personal best of 25.86 seconds, though.

    Men's 200m T54 final (21:45 BST)

    Last up tonight there are not one but two Brits gunning for a medal: Nathan Maguire and Richard Chaissaro in the men's 200m T54 final.

    Chiassaro has had to shake off a few problems from his race last night. He was coming up the inside of the pack in the 800m when he clashed with eventual winner Marcel Hug of Switzerland.

    The 35-year-old, who looked to have damaged his arm, recovered to cross the line but was then disqualified. The race will be rerun on Friday without Chiassaro involved.

    "I'm a bit sore," he told BBC Radio 5live earlier. "I've watched it back a few times now. It was a 50/50 collision and it wasn't avoidable.

    "I think the decision [to rerun] is a bit harsh. Anybody who had made a mistake, with a pack so tight, would have caused that crashed. But I'm happy they get to re-run it because of the guys I took out."

    Maguire, meanwhile, progressed to this final as the third qualifier after Saichon Konjen of Thailand was disqualified from the heats.

  7. Richard Whitehead on 5 livepublished at 21:32 British Summer Time 18 July 2017

    Britain's Richard Whitehead, the T42 200m world champion, has been speaking to BBC Radio 5 live about taking bronze in last night's 100m race.

    "I am a perfectionist," he said. "I put a lot of effort into my running. I pushed out great but I got left behind a little bit. With my style with the straight leg, I was always going to struggle. But I sneaked on to the podium. I can't complain too much but I wanted to be at the top of the podium to prove a point."

  8. 'We're all one accident away from being in this kind of position'published at 21:26 British Summer Time 18 July 2017

    Earlier we were discussing the switch between able-bodied and disability sport.

    British long jumper Luke Sinnott spoke to BBC Radio 5 live earlier on about how he came into para-athletics, after losing both his legs while on duty in Afghanistan.

    "Before I got injured, the last Paralympic Games was in Beijing," he said. "I remember catching a bit of it and thinking 'ah, good on them'. I never thought that two years later I would be in the same boat as a lot of them.

    "We're all one accident and one illness away from being in this kind of position. The fact you can see all these people do all these amazing things with limited range of body movement, it's a fantastic thing to see. I hope in years to come that other countries show the same support to these athletes that we do in Great Britain."

    The five hours between the morning and evening session fly by each day, with athletes available to interview and medal ceremonies going on.

    But today I managed to squeeze in a run and headed through the heart of the Olympic Park and towards the arterial stadiums used during London 2012.

    The green space expands for miles and it's superb to see so many cyclists, runners and dog walkers, as well as families using the playgrounds.

    And with the virtues of Olympic/Paralympic legacy ringing in my ears I headed over the to the Lee Valley Hockey Stadium, optimistic there would be clubs, or schools or athletes whacking balls about on the blue synthetic surface.

    Maybe I was misguided or just timed it badly but the place was silent and vacant. The pitch looked in good nick though.

  10. 'It's a complete dream to be here'published at 21:17 British Summer Time 18 July 2017

    Britain's Polly Maton spoke to BBC Radio 5 live after finishing fifth in the T46/47 100m: "I’m quite happy, the time wasn’t great but I’ve had calf problems the last couple of days. You just try and be in the moment and forget about it.

    "It’s a complete dream to be here - I was here at London 2012 and I came back for the grand prix in later years. It’s so great to be in the stadium and running.

    "Thanks to the faith in British Athletics and funding I’ve been able to progress at a faster pace than expected. I’m really looking forward to coming back out for the long jump."

    "I feel pretty great," said the 100m T47 defending champion. "I had a rough year this year and I’m excited to go from here. I wasn’t going to run this year so to achieve everything I wanted to was amazing. I’m here until the 24th so I’m going to explore London now."

    One of the coolest things about having 1,000 athletes all lodging around the Stratford area of London is that a brief stroll through the Westfield shopping centre becomes a game of spot the competitor.

    We saw Jonnie Peacock in the food section of M&S the other day. And today the Netherlands' sprint superstar Marlou van Rhijn was chowing down at Jamie Oliver's.

    These are Brent Lakatos' helmet and gloves, which he left on the floor while he went to have a chat with someone.

    It turns out the type of gloves make a big difference to the type of race, as he tells BBC Radio 5 live.

    "With the soft gloves you get much better grip when you're accelerating. But they lose a lot of energy. so in the longer distances the hard gloves work better."

    Maton will be back in action in T47 long jump at the weekend.

    World record holder Libby Clegg is in the crowd tonight and she's breathed a sigh of relief as no-one has beaten her time in the T11 100m.

    Britain's Clegg is out injured at the moment and told BBC Radio 5live: "It's really frustrating. It would have been nice to compete but I wouldn't be at my best. It's such a shame I'm missing out on the atmosphere. A home crowd really makes a difference. I'm rehabbing really well. I'm not going to race the rest of the season but then I'll be back in training."

    We're back on Brit watch as Polly Maton goes in the women's 100m T47 final.

    Maton is an amputee athlete who was born without part of her right arm and was spotted at a talent event at the age of 14.

    She made her World Championship debut on her 16th birthday in the long jump and was a multi-discipline athlete in Rio, when she added the 100m to her repertoire.

    Maton is being billed as one to watch in Tokyo 2020. Remember the name...

    American Isaac Jean-Paul has just set a third world record in three consecutive jumps - this one of 2.17m - and he had the whole stadium behind him. The third was met with a humongous roar.

    More from Jason Smyth, who had a moment with his wife Elise and his daughter: "It's important to have this moment with family. Those people are the most important in my life. Even though these moments are incredible my family will always be there and I'm so lucky to have such a supportive family.

    "I first came on the scene in 2005 and won golds all the way, I really would love to continue that. I just want to be the best I can be and that's what drives me."
