    Four-time Olympic gold medallist athlete on BBC One

    I think this is going to be a really tough competition and really exciting to watch.

    Jess Ennis-Hill is such a tough competitor that you can never count her out. I’m sure Katarina Johnson-Thompson has learnt from last year - she’s got off to such a great start.

    But when you get to the Olympics, the big stage, it’s not about what type of shape you are in, all of these athletes are in top shape, it’s about the athletes who are mentally tough who can deliver their best performance on the day.

    Jess has proven that she can do that time and time again, and you can never count her out.

    'The Games have been great so far'published at 00:30 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Michael Johnson
    Four-time Olympic gold medallist athlete on BBC One

    The Games have been great so far. Once the athletics starts, the pool, the gymnastics and all the rest begin, all of the talk about the preparation in Brazil, and the talk of the Russians goes into background.

    The credibility of the sport and the Olympic movement has been hit dramatically with everything that has been going on. 

    It will take time to restore the credibility, a series of right decisions time and time again.

    Until that credibility is restored you will see fantastic performances that will be questioned as to whether it is real.

    Jessica Ennis-Hill has a shot put PB of 14.67m, while Katarina Johnson-Thompson can chuck it 12.47m.

    For context, 14m is about three quarters of the way down a 10-pin bowling lane.

    'Johnson-Thompson needs a personal best tonight'published at 00:26 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Women's heptathlon (from 00:35 BST)

    Denise Lewis
    Olympic heptathlon gold medallist on BBC TV

    Great Britain's Katarina Johnson-Thompson is first after two events of the women's heptathlon, with Jessica Ennis-Hill in third. The shot put and 200m come up shortly.

    The heptathlon has been billed as the high point for British athletics here and it did not disappoint. We always knew Katarina Johnson-Thompson had the potential to perform well in a major event and she had not done so before, but did today.

    So far the script has gone according to plan. Katarina's throws do let her down so she will need to be close to a personal best to stay in contention. Jess is a better shot putter and after the two events tonight it should swing back in Jess's favour.

    Tom Bosworth may have missed out on a medal in the 20k walk earlier, but the 26-year-old smashed the British record with his time of 1:20:13, which had stood at 1:22:03 since Ian McCombie's efforts in the Seoul Olympics in 1988.

    "I’m in shock at what just happened," he said.

    "I can’t be disappointed with sixth place at the Olympics but I could have done better as I had a dodgy stomach last night and that affected me a little bit.  

    "To break the British record by such a margin and at the Olympics is a dream come true. It was just an amazing experience. I’m so happy I cannot put it into words."

    Dempsey, 35, won silver in London, having taken a bronze in Athens in 2004, and will retire after this event.  

    Dutch sailor Dorian van Rijsselberghe, who won gold in 2012, will retain his title. 

    Dempsey said: “I feel very happy to have won a silver medal. It’s cool, it’s amazing. It’s nice to have had a good spell at the top and be competitive over five Olympic Games. I’m pretty proud of that."
