A very well made trailer. If you are wondering what music Channel 4 licenced, the song is called "Harder Than You Think" and is by Public Enemy.

Re: The Olympics.

I do like the Muse song "Survival" that will be played at the medal ceremony, it sounds very Queenesque.

Re: The Olympics.

The Olympic flame has arrived in London. Almost exactly 1 week to go.

I travel though Stratford everyday and I can tell you the signs are up, the posters are up, the place has a 'feeling' about it at the moment.

Re: The Olympics.

It's going to be terrific and I just hope the media now start concentrating more on the wonderful excitement which lies ahead. We should acknowledge the huge achievements of all those concerned (G4S excepted lol) in creating the facilities and treasure these few weeks because they'll likely never happen again in any of our lifetimes. To do anything else now would be churlish IMHO and there'll be plenty of time in coming months and years to debate the pros and cons.

That's this one.. It's not upside-down all the time but yes even when they do the flag bearer it's upside-down..

It's a personal gripe of mine and even recently on the torch route the picture I took has many upside-down which I most hastily cropped out!!!

Here's the uncropped picture
