Taunton's Deborah Criddle and her gold-medal winning equestrian team-mates are to feature on a new postage stamp.

A post box in Criddle's home village of Trull near Taunton is also being painted gold this morning.

Dorchester's Paul Blake has won a bronze medal. The runner came third in the final of the 800 metre T36.

A post box in Portland will be painted gold tomorrow in honour of Helena Lucas finishing first in the Single-Person Keelboat, 2.4mR. Royal Mail has also issued a commemorative stamp.

Medals were awarded based on race 10 as today's sailing was cancelled due to a lack of wind.

Cornish swimmer Jonathan Fox has missed out on winning his second medal at the Paralympic Games.

Fox, who won gold in the S7 100metres backstroke last week, came fourth in tonight's final of the S7 400metres freestyle. The race was won by Britain's Josef Craig.

From scouring twenty five square miles of sea bed for explosives, to simply pointing people in the right direction, the military and emergency services did it all during the sailing events in Weymouth.
