Comments
"Boyle said it would be about a land that has been poisoned by industrial legacy and the recovery of that land".
Wow - let's just hope it's not as f*cking awful as it sounds
Scotland contribution will be fried mars bars, Special Brew and nothing else as they want independence
Wales isn't a country so won't be included
The North East contribution will be short skirts, and fake tan
Manchester will be rain and a punch up between the Gallagher brothers over who has less talent.
Londons contribution will be lots of East European accents and over pricing and the burning of Boris at the Olmypic torch
