    Wales' Hannah Mills and Saskia Clark from Essex have affectionately been named by double Olympic champion Shirley Robertson as the 'real life Gavin and Stacey' and the strength of their friendship was clear to see as they jumped onto the medal podium.

    Clark shuffled nervously as they waited for their names to be announced but once that happened, they bounced up and down with the biggest grins this side of Sugar Loaf mountain before belting out the national anthem.

    After also winning silver at London 2012, this was the last race in their six-year partnership, but what a way to go out. A winning combination but, more importantly, friends forever.

    After a slightly nervous opening round Jade Jones again showed all her class and experience to move clear of any threat posed by Nikita Glasnovic and move into the -57kg final.

    Jones looked incredibly relieved and fully acknowledged her fans in the crowd for the first time in this competition, but she wants more.

    "We only came here for gold," her coach Paul Green tells me.

    "We know all of the opponents inside out and Jade is so confident. It hasn't been easy the last four years as she's the one every fighter wants to beat, but she's a winner and that's all today is about."

    "GB have got four great athletes and our team is growing and getting stronger. I think every one has a chance of medal. It is a great start and gets the ball rolling for GB."
