We are here in the Abbey taking a look at this tapestry, | :01:03. | :01:13. | |
which has had a bit of a 21st-century tilt, | :01:14. | :01:15. | |
Queen Victoria's Coronation, looking fabulous. This is the brainchild of | :01:16. | :01:27. | |
a fantastic well-known author, how did you come up with this idea? | :01:28. | :01:33. | |
English Heritage asked me if I would redo a modern version and it was the | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
children came up with the ideas. They picked the moments in history | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
so it was my job to turn it into a kind of Bayeux tapestry but we will | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
have a more modern twist in it. They particularly asked me because they | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
wanted me to do it in a style like the Tom Gates books. Which a lot of | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
children will recognise. Yes because the characters have been hidden | :02:01. | :02:07. | |

Team GB cyclists were favourites going into the Games and they | :02:42. | :02:52. | |

Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Brunei sent athletes to the Olympics | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
for the first time ever, and in boxing women were finally | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
allowed to compete in the ring, with Team GB's Nicola Adams | :04:18. | :04:19. | |
Nicola Adams of Great Britain has just made sporting history! | :04:20. | :04:28. | |
