Greg Rutherford, Ray Winstone and a chemical leak at a swimming pool in Scotland.

British long jumper Greg Rutherford speaks just moments after winning the world title in Beijing, and Ray Winston discusses his new TV show. Plus a chemical leak at a swimming pool.

We spoke to the British long jumper Greg Rutherford just moments after he won the world title in Beijing with a jump of 8 metres and 41 centimetres. Rutherford now holds the World, Olympic, European and Commonwealth titles. We heard from actor Ray Winstone on his new TV show The Trials of Jimmy Rose which is the story of a man with a criminal past who must rebuild his life and regain the trust of his family on his release from prison. And we brought you updates from a chemical leak at a swimming pool in St Andrews where 15 people were being treated for breathing difficulties and toxic inhalation.
