I was thinking earlier as to who this could be - the person to carry the final few yards to the Openning Ceremony
As we get closer to the event then so people are ruled out
I think Sir Steve may be on my list and Tanni Grey Thompson
Any obscure possibles ??

Seb Pollard
There are 114 Olympic gold medal winners living (that does exclude paralympics) I suspect it'll be one of them.
I can't remember his name, but there is only one of the people who won gold at London 1948 still alive, maybe him?
Or a Royal.
Seb Coe . to heavily involved
Royal? Princess Anne .. again too involved, daughter already doing a leg
Would it have to be anyone sporty?
Kate or William!!!!!
Boris!!!!!
Ant and Dec
They seem to be bloody eveywhere thesee days
Oh god. It will be Boris won't it.
x-post, although I'd still object to Ant and Dec. They can take a Newcastle leg.
Gertie .. just as well its not going to a public vote then !!
Though as that's now my choice, that makes it unlikely. Oh drat.
Kelly Holmes
Hhhhhmmmppppppppffff
I was just about to post THAT. I think she will be as I would imagine either Kelly or Steve are the most recognisable sport stars from the last olympics.
my son thinks roger bannister............
David Beckham carrying Victoria Beckham whilst her hair is on fire
A Darlek
Prince Harry?
I'd like it to be Chris Hoy
Or they could have 2 torches and let Coe and Overt have 1 last race!?!
No footballers mentioned yet
Can we do 'how' too? This will be hard to top

A double act (no not like that) with <span class="st"> Tanni Grey-Thompson? Two more boxes ticked
