Three Britons into men's 200m freestyle final

Great Britain swimmers Daniel Pepper, Ben Procter and Craig Rodgie have all made the final of the men's S14 200m freestyle.

Procter and Pepper went in heat one, with Procter leading from the front.

Pepper came back hard though, and just pipped his teammate to the wall in 2:01.27. In the second heat Rodgie finished third in a time of 2:03.63 to qualify eighth-fastest for the final.

Australian Daniel Fox set a new Paralympic record of 2:00.11 in heat three, almost becoming the first man to go under two minutes.

The final takes place at 5.48pm this evening.
