Yeah, someone was standing in front of a huge version on the news on Sunday. I bet it'll break down in a couple of years time.
Actually, the whole handover ceremony on our side was completely naff, from the double decker bus transformer (which just looked like the bombed 7/7 bus, presumably unintentionally), to Beckham kicking a football into the crowd, then the 'party for the olympics' where for some reason they mainly interviewed indie bands about sport, and carried out all the interviews right in front of the main stage while bands were playing.
Me too. They keep showing that "this is what the building work will look like over the next 4 years, at high speed" segment over and over and over again. Interviews from the building site. Constant bloody interviews from the building site.
Just build the damned thing, the camera crews are probably in the way.
