Put me out of my misery

[humbersloop]

we've no tv or net access - who lit the flame?

[sherrardk]

No one yet.

[MarkRae]

No-one yet!

[erin-x]

Ooohhh the suspense!!

[Buenchico]

A certain D Beckham was pictured taking it to the stadium but (since he's not featured anywhere else yet) my money's still on Steve Redgrave.

[Mick-Talbot]

Beckham or Redgrave .......?

[bibblebub]

late guess - stephen hawking

[humbersloop]

Keep me posted and thanks
I could only get shyte coverage on dad radio via lbc - shersh!

[vodkancoke]

Sir Steve

[erin-x]

Sir Steve!

[Buenchico]

SR has just accepted the flame, in preparation for lighting the cauldron.

[MarkRae]

Who else? Five golds - 'nuff said!

[Maydup]

Steve Redgrave is taking it into the stadium now.

[daisya]

Steve is carrying it into the stadium

[Mick-Talbot]

Bloody hell.....it's the pompous rower

[Maydup]

the 500 builders of the park given Sir Steve a guard of honour. He's running in with it and has passed it to a group of young athletes who are running a lap around the stadium

[gness]

Hi Sloopy. Couldn`t have been a better choice. The missing plumber`s back. x

[Mick-Talbot]

Didn't see that coming did you?

[Maydup]

They've lit 7 torches now and the young athletes are lighting the cauldron together

[Buenchico]

So we were all fooled!

The cauldron was lit by a group of young athletes, not by any individual!

[pastafreak]

Brilliant!
