LIVE: Cheese rolling races well under way in baking heat

It’s the annual cheese rolling races, where competitors chase a 7lb Double Gloucester down a steep hill. The annual tradition happens on Cooper’s Hill near Gloucester.

In the first race, German YouTuber Tom Kopke completes his hat-trick of successive wins, fending off a challenge from Chris Anderson.

There was joy for the Anderson family however, as his son William, aged 11, won the first children’s race

Competitors have come from all over the world, including Japan, the USA, Poland and France
