Day 11: Olympic Breakfast
Reigning Olympic champions Jack Laugher and Giles Scott are among the Brits hoping to be in medal contention again as the games continue in Tokyo. Dan Walker and Sam Quek present.
Scott is defending his title in sailing's finn class, which Britain have won at every Olympics this century. He's not the only British sailor with podium aspirations on day 11 – it's also the medal race in the mixed Nacra 17, in which John Gimson and Anna Burnet won the 2020 world title.
Laugher's historic diving gold five years ago came in the synchronised 3m springboard with Chris Mears, but he also earned individual silver in Rio and should be in contention again here. His main opposition, as ever, is likely to come from China, with Xie Siyi winner of back-to-back world titles.
In the Velodrome, Great Britain continue their defence of the men's and women's team pursuit titles, while six-time Olympic gold medallist Jason Kenny competes in the men's team sprint opening rounds.

Jeopardy!
Jeopardy! is a classic game show -- with a twist. The answers are given first, and the contestants supply the questions. Three contestants, including the previous show's champion, compete in six categories and in three rounds (with each round's "answers" being worth more prize money).
Stick
Pryce Cahill is an over-the-hill, ex-pro golfer whose career was derailed prematurely 20 years ago. After the collapse of his marriage and getting fired from his job at an Indiana sporting goods store, Pryce hedges his bets, and future, entirely on a troubled 17-year-old golf phenom named Santi. Stick is a heartfelt, feel-good comedy about a found family and their relationships set within the world of golf as it's never been shown before.
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the #1 show in late-night. Featuring bandleader Jon Batiste with his band Stay Human, the Emmy Award-nominated show broadcasts from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. He talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology, and more. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer, and writer of The Late Show on Sept. 8, 2015.
Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and lest known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Before joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed The Colbert Report, which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one-third of the time. Good luck, Bill!
