What?! | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
Oh... | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
Oh, I just had that dream again. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
The one where you dropped the torch or your trousers fall down? Both. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
I'm losing it. Yeah, I can see that. This is just a bit of maintenance. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:49 | |
Can't carry the Olympic torch with dirty fingernails, can I? | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
You won't be carrying it at all if you don't get to the meeting. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
I've got plenty of time. I ain't got to be there till 12. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
And it's just gone 11.30. No. | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
Good luck. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:05 | |
No, no, no. Come on, mate! Play the game. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
Hey, taxi! | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
White City, please, mate. Get in. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
Excuse me, is you an athlete? Hey? Oh, no, no. I didn't think so. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:36 | |
It's your chest, it's like a pigeon, isn't it? | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
Your face, it just says that, what is it? "I'm a loser." | 0:02:38 | 0:02:43 | |
Actually, I'm an official Olympic torchbearer. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
I'm going to be on the telly. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:48 | |
I read about them people. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
Heroes, every single one of them. That is right. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
So how comes you was chosen? Can we just get going, please? Of course. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:59 | |
Actually, I could have been an athlete. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
One of them dancing girls with a ribbon, maybe! | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
I kill myself sometimes! | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
BEEPS HORN | 0:03:10 | 0:03:12 | |
You know, I'm Greek, yeah. Now, we know how to put on the Olympics. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:17 | |
The Brits, hmm. You know what, the Brits, they're not winners, are they? | 0:03:18 | 0:03:22 | |
They're too polite to win. It's all like, "Sorry, sorry." | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
Yeah, mate, I am in a bit of a hurry here. I'm a British boxer, yeah? | 0:03:26 | 0:03:30 | |
Pang, you're down. "Ooh, did I knock you out? Sorry." | 0:03:30 | 0:03:34 | |
"I can throw this javelin further than you, | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
"but I won't, cos if I win, that'd be rude. Sorry." | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
Too polite, the Brits, gets on my nerves, you know? | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
Sorry. Always apologising. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
And you run like a girl! | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
MAN: It's really exciting. Seven years ago, we won this bid and it's just around the corner now, | 0:04:11 | 0:04:16 | |
so turning that dream into reality, absolutely fantastic. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
Kriss, I cannot believe that your last Olympics was 1992! | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
It was like yesterday. I know, I'm an old fella now. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
We're all getting older, aren't we? | 0:04:26 | 0:04:29 | |
I tell you what, I would love to be at these Games. Who is this guy? | 0:04:29 | 0:04:36 | |
Sorry, I'm late. One of the torchbearers. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
You've just missed them. We've already done that item. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:41 | |
Oh, you're kidding me? What's going on? | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
Who are you, then? Mark Foster. Akabusi. Are you not torchbearers? | 0:04:45 | 0:04:50 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
We're very sorry about this. Can we get security in here, please? | 0:04:52 | 0:04:56 | |
No, you're all right, I'll see myself out. Don't worry about it. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
Once I'm gone, you can do it again, can't you? We're live, you idiot. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:04 | |
Live? Idiot? That's nice, isn't it? | 0:05:04 | 0:05:08 | |
I used to fancy you. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
Right, well, here's something to get your teeth into... | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
Torch boy. I missed them. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:24 | |
They've gone to Wembley stadium. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
You know, the Greeks, we knew how to build a stadium. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:33 | |
Pillars and columns as far as the eye could see. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
Yeah, mate, can you just shut up and put your foot down? Go! | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
There you go. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:01 | |
Oh, you've got to be kidding me. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
Keep the change. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
Who is he? The Terminator? | 0:06:10 | 0:06:11 | |
BILLY WHISTLES | 0:06:27 | 0:06:29 | |
Well, with me today here at Wembley is a gold medallist | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
who's competed in a record six Olympic Games - | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
it's only Tessa Sanderson. Hi, Sonali. Hello. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
Did you know that Wembley is the biggest of the six stadiums | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
that's been used in the Olympics? | 0:07:00 | 0:07:01 | |
It's hosting the men's football and the women's football as well. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:05 | |
All right? Oh, hello. Don't suppose you're a torchbearer, are you? | 0:07:05 | 0:07:09 | |
This is Tessa Sanderson. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
Oh, of course it is. Sorry about that. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
So are you a torchbearer, then? Do I look like a torchbearer? | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
They were here. You just missed them. Oh, not again. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
I-I'm sorry, Tessa. I'm sorry, darling. S-Sorry. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:25 | |
Let's hope all our torchbearers are as bright and punctual as that one. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
Shall we go again? Oi, missy. I heard that. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
This is supposed to be my moment. Look, I'm really sorry, | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
it's just we're in the middle of filming... Whoa, hang on a minute. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
You are very attractive when you're angry, do you know that? | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
No, it's all right. I'm going, I'm going. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:41 | |
1984. Los Angeles. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
I had a massive crush on you. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
Told you you run like a girl. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
I tell you... Shut it, you. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
I've had enough, all right? | 0:08:29 | 0:08:30 | |
If you'd have put your foot down, I wouldn't have missed them. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
Now, I've got one more chance. West Ham. Go. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
Did they really choose you out of all those people to carry a torch? | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
HE LAUGHS DERISIVELY | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
Hello? Help! | 0:09:06 | 0:09:10 | |
PANTING: Now, please... | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
Please tell me that all you lot are torchbearers. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:43 | |
Yeah, that's right. Oh... | 0:09:43 | 0:09:46 | |
Oh, you've got no idea what I've been through to get here today. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:51 | |
Yeah, I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro for charity. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
I work with young chefs and inspire them to become great chefs of the future. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:57 | |
I was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 23 | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
and started a charity called CoppaFeel. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:02 | |
Well, I do a lot of volunteer work to help the community. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:06 | |
Right. So, what about you? | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
Me? | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
Oh, I... | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
I... | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
GATES CLANG Oh, look - we're in! | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
Come on, then. OK. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
I've been looking forward to this. Yeah, definitely, yeah. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
All right, mate. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
Pass, please. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:31 | |
No, I... Hang on a minute. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:33 | |
It was here a minute ago. No pass, no entry. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
Oh, come on, mate. I must be on a list or something. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:40 | |
You've got the chance to be the bigger man here, ain't you? | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
Come on, please. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
Oh, don't be like that! | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
Hey! | 0:10:52 | 0:10:53 | |
Hey! | 0:10:55 | 0:10:57 | |
ECHOING VOICES OUTSIDE | 0:11:04 | 0:11:08 | |
FOOTSTEPS APPROACH | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
Are you all right? | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
Just having one of those days. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
I should probably take it as a sign. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
I don't really belong here. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
You're not giving up, are you? | 0:11:36 | 0:11:37 | |
I feel like it. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:40 | |
D'you know what I do when I feel like that? What? | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
I think about why I'm doing it. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
Yeah? | 0:11:46 | 0:11:47 | |
You deserve to be here. Yeah? | 0:11:48 | 0:11:50 | |
I ain't a hero. I'm a loser. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:56 | |
You must have done something. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:57 | |
I'm a good dad. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:02 | |
I may not be a hero to anyone else, but I am to my kids. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
I've got two of them. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:07 | |
And a granddaughter. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:09 | |
And a great-grandchild on the way. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
See, that's good, isn't it? You see, | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
I really want them to be proud of me. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
And...I know I'm not perfect... | 0:12:19 | 0:12:22 | |
and I might not have always done the right thing, but... | 0:12:22 | 0:12:26 | |
I've tried. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:27 | |
All my life, I've tried. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:31 | |
And that's what the Olympics is all about, innit? Trying. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:36 | |
I'm here now, aren't I? | 0:12:39 | 0:12:41 | |
I mean, this...this is where I live, London, this is my town. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:45 | |
I was born just up the road. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:46 | |
Just think... | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
soon, everyone's going to be down here. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
The whole world is going to be watching us. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:56 | |
And it's going to be our moment to shine. London's moment to shine. | 0:12:56 | 0:13:01 | |
Britain's moment. God! | 0:13:01 | 0:13:04 | |
All 60 million of us that make Britain great, | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
it's going to be our moment to shine. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:10 | |
Huh! | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
No, Billy Mitchell. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:14 | |
It's your moment to shine. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
You left this in the back of me cab. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:20 | |
I'm sorry. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
All right, I was wrong. Like I said, Hercules was wrong, all right? | 0:13:22 | 0:13:27 | |
Now, you may have the chest of a pigeon, eh? | 0:13:27 | 0:13:32 | |
You may run like a girl, | 0:13:33 | 0:13:35 | |
you may have in indescribable aura of downtrodden, working-class negativity. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:41 | |
It's part of your charm, it's part of being British. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
But you, my friend, you deserve to be here. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:47 | |
Eh? | 0:13:47 | 0:13:48 | |
Go. Get out there | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
and show the world what you're made of. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
Come on, come on! Go on, son, go on! | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
Go on! Come on! | 0:13:58 | 0:14:01 | |
CHEERING | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
HE MOUTHS | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
Look how proud she's made him. What are you doing here? | 0:14:28 | 0:14:33 | |
You're having a laugh, | 0:14:35 | 0:14:36 | |
I'm dreaming this, aren't I? Yeah, but it's a good dream. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:39 | |
At least your trousers haven't fallen off and you haven't dropped the torch. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:43 | |
Enjoy it, Billy Mitchell, enjoy your moments. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:46 | |
Pops... | 0:14:52 | 0:14:53 | |
Pops... | 0:14:55 | 0:14:57 | |
Pops... Pops. | 0:14:57 | 0:14:59 | |
Pops. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:01 | |
You're dreaming again. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:05 | |
Yeah. It looks like it. Which one was it this time, | 0:15:05 | 0:15:09 | |
where your trousers fall down or you drop the torch? Neither. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:13 | |
This was a good one. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
But what are you doing anyway? | 0:15:16 | 0:15:18 | |
Oh, nothing. Nothing. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
Well, come on, then. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:24 | |
Let's go home, eh? | 0:15:24 | 0:15:26 | |
Yeah? | 0:15:26 | 0:15:27 | |
Come on. Come on, let's go. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
It was an amazing dream I had. Yeah? Kelly Holmes was in it. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:35 | |
Loads of famous people. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
But d'you know what? I'm not bothered any more. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:41 | |
I wouldn't have even thought of holding that torch. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
Yeah? Yeah. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
Wait, wait, traffic. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |
Hey-hey! | 0:15:52 | 0:15:54 | |
So, are you going to be all right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. | 0:15:56 | 0:16:00 | |
I'm just going to enjoy my moment. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
Come on, then, home. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
Watch your step. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 |
