04:18It was a really hard third day.
04:20It was really hard to bounce back from day three.
04:22My first two days, I couldn't ask for two better days.
04:25Japan and I were really leading it then.
04:28China was coming close.
04:30And then third and fourth day, China,
04:32he caught up with us. I had a bad day on the third day.
04:34And then fourth day, I had a revival,
04:36and I was just about dead, so I'm happy I did.
04:38Yeah, but I took everything.
04:41It was so hard.
04:43Immediate thoughts when they called your name out?
04:47Adrenaline.
04:49Such an adrenaline rush.
04:51Delighted. You don't know what to think.
04:53You can't believe it's finally here.
04:55You can hardly even believe it's over whenever it is over.
04:57But yeah, so pleased.
04:59So pleased I've done it.
05:01I've wanted it for...
05:03I started competing four years ago.
05:05Two years in tennis training.
05:07Yeah, it took over my whole life.
05:09And yeah, I've done it. I've got the medal.
05:11And the message to everyone back home is,
05:15Yeah, they always believed in me.
05:17They never doubted me.
05:19Yeah, it's quite emotional.
05:21I want to say thanks for always being there.
05:24And yeah...
05:26Who in particular do you want to say thank you to?
05:28Gracie, my girlfriend.
05:30She was always there by my side, supporting me.
05:33Bad days.
05:35I work around the clock, every day of the week.
05:37Six days a week.
05:39And she always just gets it.
05:41She's always there, understanding.
05:43Yeah, I appreciate it.
05:44So I want to say thanks.
05:45College training manager, employer?
05:47Yeah, Colin Hagan.
05:49He trained me a lot of Saturday mornings, Friday evenings.
05:52My dad worked for a family business, James McKeown.
05:56And yeah, he's always stuck with me.
05:58I'm training all the time at the minute, month of August.
06:00I hardly even work a week.
06:02And yeah, he's always there.
06:04It's fine, and he'll suffer, and I'll get the benefit.
06:06But it's paid off. We're here now.
06:08So yeah.
06:09A life-changing moment, this, tonight?
06:11Yeah, life-changing.
06:13Can't wait to go home and relax.
06:15Just move on.
06:17Work like a normal person, it'll be so good.
06:19But yeah.
06:20And what does the future hold for your career,
06:23having just been chosen as one of the top people in your profession?
06:29We own a family business, a body shop,
06:31James McKeown Accident Repair.
06:33I want to really push it.
06:34I want to go international with it, same way I did.
06:37I went against the world, I want to send it against the world.
06:39I want to go into another country, start from scratch.
06:41My dad built our business in Northern Ireland.
06:44Built it from the ground up.
06:45I want to do the same somewhere else, out of Europe,
06:48somewhere really hard, a challenge,
06:50and try to do the same my dad did and prove it.
06:52And yeah, that's my dream.
06:54Fantastic. Well done.
06:55Can we have a flag moment?
06:56Yeah, no problem.
07:03What do you want me to do?
07:04Just into the camera would be brilliant.
07:07Yeah, wrap yourself and maybe the point.
07:11Yeah, let's see that.
07:13Let's do the old bite the medal.
07:19Got it?
07:20Brilliant. Absolutely fantastic.
07:22Thank you so much, mate.
07:23Congratulations.
07:25Can I take it where nobody ever would imagine it to go?
07:29It's my dream.
07:30I like doing unthinkable things this year.
07:33I was 15, I dreamed about this day, like 15, 29.
07:38Yeah, I want to do the unthinkable with the business.
07:40I want to take it across the world, go again,
07:43and see if I can do it.
07:45I look forward to seeing your name in red lights everywhere.
07:48You'll come in and see my apprentices.
07:51Well, there's time for me to retrain yet,
07:54so yeah, I can join you.
07:57Brilliant. Well, congratulations and good luck with the future.
08:01Thank you very much.
08:03Thanks for speaking to me.
08:04All right, thank you.
08:05Dave, anything unique that's occurred to you in the meantime?
08:08I want to encourage apprentices to join the trade, especially.
08:12Now it's hard for 15-year-olds, 16-year-olds to leave school.
08:15They're forced into uni a lot,
08:17but this program, for example, World Skills,
08:20I didn't know about it until the month I was leaving school.
08:23Heard about it, I wanted it.
08:25I went to bed looking up YouTube videos, couldn't find anything.
08:28And then went to college and I was put in for it.
08:32I'd like more awareness given in this,
08:34so definitely young people need to join the trade.
08:36There's so many opportunities like this, going against the world.
08:39I've been to Thailand in March, went against Japan there.
08:43He beat me, he beat me again, but we'll have to let it go.
08:46That was the final today.
08:47But yeah, there's so many opportunities in the trade, in any trade,
08:50and this is such an example of it today.
08:52So yeah, that's it.
08:54Brilliant. All right.
08:56What's going on down there?
08:58My guess?
09:003 a.m.
09:04Yeah, Tuesday will be hard on them.
