Someone on Radio 2 (I think it was, it might have been Magic, I was stuck in the car for long enough that I varied channels a bit) suggested that it ought to be Dr Who who lit the flame as it was him in one of the Dr Who episodes-otherwise there might be a rift in the time/space continuum  ;)

There were some Tardis noises earlier...
Do not clench. It only makes it worse.

I was about to suggest 007 would be lighting the flame, and then up he pops on the telly!  :o

The Beckham boat bit with the torch was very 007 - my money is still on Bond.  :smug:

I can't see it being Beckham. He has already featured. Steve Redgrave? The last gold medallist alive from 1948?

I think it has to be the Doctor because it already happened in one of the David Tennant episodes.

 Can it, Tories. Your go was the Jubilee, and all you gave us was some old racists on a wet boat.
