Olympic gold for Kennaugh in the team pursuit

Onchan cyclist Peter Kennaugh has become the first Manxman for 100 years - and the first truly born and bred one ever - to win an Olympic gold medal.

They finished the final in three minutes 51.659 seconds, 2.5 seconds ahead of their Australian rivals.

Here are the final moments of the race, as described by Hugh Porter on the BBC:
