This is an update to the post below…

I’m a natural cynic. Anyone who’s ever heard me on the radio will know that.  What exactly was all the fuss about the Olympic Torch today?  I’m not speaking about the protesters. They have their reasons, I’m not questioning that… I’m questioning the Olympic Torch itself.

My major question surrounding the torch is why was Konnie Huq, the ex Blue Peter presenter, carrying it at one point?  Even if she was a current Blue Peter presenter, carrying it would be questionable.

There is also this hilarious interview with her.

Thing is, Emma was in London today.  I wonder what involvement she had?

Also, the torch landed in London yesterday at Heathrow Terminal 5. If only BA had been as careful with Calvin Harris’s laptop as they were with the torch.

For anyone who’s vaguely interested in the Olympic Torch, here’s an article on how exactly they keep it a light. Interesting stuff…

Anyways, the Olympic Games draw that little bit closer… can’t wait.

I caught a bit of a brilliant new comedy programme which happend to be on BBC News 24 this morning, it was called the Olympic Torch Relay.

Brilliant.  There is something strangley amusing about protesters trying to grab a torch from Konnie Huq.
