:00:06. > :00:09.Tonight we are just outside Taunton, reflecting on the night seven
:00:09. > :00:13.people lost their lives on this motorway.
:00:13. > :00:17.As the police investigation continues, we will be looking at
:00:17. > :00:20.the events leading up to the crash and we will hear amazing new
:00:20. > :00:25.testimony about the bravery of some of the people caught up in the
:00:25. > :00:30.incident. When I stepped out of the car it was like stepping on to a
:00:30. > :00:35.movie set. You just don't think it's real for a minute.
:00:35. > :00:40.Also in the programme tonight: Never mind Greece, it turns out it
:00:40. > :00:46.was the Cotswolds that inspired the modern Olympics. That's the
:00:46. > :00:55.cruelest sport I think I have ever seen. I am Alastair Mackey and this
:00:55. > :01:00.is Inside Out West. First tonight, the M5 crash. Seven
:01:00. > :01:06.people dead and more than 50 injured. Ten days on, still no firm
:01:06. > :01:09.conclusions about what may have caused the pile-up. Travelling on
:01:09. > :01:14.the M5, getting up to speed and ahead of us we noticed a white wall
:01:14. > :01:23.and I turned to Dan and said wow, that's the thickest fog I have ever
:01:23. > :01:29.seen. The lorries hit cars in front of us. We could hear bang, bang,
:01:29. > :01:33.bang from behind, as well. It was hell. Just the worst noise running
:01:33. > :01:42.through your head, just these screams of people and not knowing
:01:42. > :01:46.what to do first. The next thing was as if somebody had thrown a
:01:46. > :01:52.black blanket over the windscreen. It was jet black. It was a night no
:01:52. > :01:55.no one involved will ever forget. Now Inside Out can reveal no fog
:01:55. > :02:00.warnings were displayed on electronic signs at the time of the
:02:00. > :02:05.accident, despite forecasts and reports of poor visibility. The BBC
:02:05. > :02:10.had warned of fog. With the added smoke from bonfires that will be a
:02:10. > :02:14.perfect recipe for mist and fog... So had the Highways Agency, at
:02:14. > :02:19.4.00pm its website was sent information from The Met Office
:02:19. > :02:22.forecasting fog and mist. A forecast which proved accurate.
:02:22. > :02:26.There were small patches of fog. There was water on the ground. It
:02:26. > :02:32.wasn't raining heavily, there was a bit of drizzle coming down. Despite
:02:32. > :02:37.this, no warnings were displayed on the M5 itself. We asked the
:02:37. > :02:41.Highways Agency, which controls the electronic boards, why? It said it
:02:42. > :02:45.had received no reports of adverse weather on any of its roads and it
:02:45. > :02:49.said its control centre had been given advice by The Met Office that
:02:49. > :02:56.did not highlight fog as a potential hazard at the time of the
:02:56. > :03:00.crash. At around 8.15pm that evening a fireworks display at
:03:00. > :03:05.Taunton Rugby Club ended, a police investigation is ongoing into
:03:05. > :03:11.whether smoke from that played any part in the accident. Whatever the
:03:11. > :03:20.cause, for Ciara and Roger there was no warning of what was to come
:03:20. > :03:25.as they joined the motorway at junction 25. We pulled on to the M5
:03:25. > :03:31.and were getting up to speed behind the Iceland truck in the middle
:03:31. > :03:35.middle lane when we rolled into a wall of very sudden, very, very
:03:35. > :03:43.thick, what appeared to be fog. was like somebody had thrown a hood
:03:43. > :03:47.over the windscreen of the car, you could not see a thing. Almost as
:03:47. > :03:55.soon as that happened I could see the truck again but it was
:03:55. > :04:00.stationary. Closing quite fast from about 80 metres, and having to
:04:00. > :04:08.brake very sharply. I literally stood on the brakes. I am thinking
:04:08. > :04:16.we are not going to stop. But we do, we stop, from my memory, with about
:04:16. > :04:25.maybe ten feet to spare. The lorries hit cars in front of us and
:04:25. > :04:31.we could hear bang, bang, bang from behind, as well. It was rhythmical
:04:31. > :04:34.almost, thump, thump, like a beat. I said we're going to get hit.
:04:34. > :04:38.Based on post-crash pictures, we have tried to indicate what
:04:38. > :04:46.happened in the aftermath of the accident. The vehicles represented
:04:46. > :04:52.may not be exactly where they ended up, the Nenos were in the first
:04:52. > :04:56.phase of the collision and Ciara was one of the first to dial 999.
:04:56. > :05:01.said this isn't just a small crash, there's many, many crashes and I
:05:01. > :05:08.can see fire. Then came the second phase of the crash, a lorry jack-
:05:08. > :05:11.knifed behind them, protecting the couple from impact. After probably
:05:12. > :05:15.90 seconds, I said I am not sitting here any longer, I have to go out
:05:15. > :05:20.and see what I can do. In fact, that's when I stepped out of the
:05:20. > :05:29.car, it was like stepping on to a movie set. You just don't think
:05:29. > :05:34.it's real for a minute. Just mangled bits of metal everywhere. I
:05:34. > :05:38.can hear the music from the rugby club and I just keep thinking God,
:05:38. > :05:42.they've no idea what's going on up here. Roger saw two men trapped in
:05:42. > :05:49.the car directly in front of him. He borrowed a tyre lever from a
:05:49. > :05:54.truck driver. I ran back, told the guy in the seat to turn away and
:05:54. > :06:04.smashed the window and it smashed first time. He reached out and I
:06:04. > :06:04.
:06:04. > :06:09.pulled him out. The chap on the other side was very dazed. He was
:06:09. > :06:13.in a slightly worse way. We said move over, come on, we will get you
:06:13. > :06:19.out. We couldn't open his door, he was against the barrier. And he
:06:19. > :06:23.said why, I am OK, kind of thing. I said your engine's gone, your car's
:06:23. > :06:29.smoking, you might go up in flames. You need to get out. He shifted
:06:29. > :06:33.over and we pulled him out. Hamill, his girlfriend Catherine
:06:33. > :06:39.and his dad, had pulled up behind the jack-knifed lorry. They too
:06:39. > :06:43.were remarkably lucky not to be hit. I remember sat there and Thomas was
:06:43. > :06:50.like we're going to get hit, brace yourselves and we just waited and
:06:50. > :06:55.heard and saw to the left cars just crashing in. And someone shouted
:06:55. > :06:59.please take my baby, take my baby. My husband's trapped in the car. I
:06:59. > :07:04.need to try and get him out. I did 999 standing at the central
:07:04. > :07:11.reservation as more cars were crashing into the back of us and I
:07:11. > :07:18.remember the 999 nine call call going how many cars? In this third
:07:18. > :07:21.third phase of the crash, Matt and Michelle and their son and three
:07:21. > :07:25.dogs ended up wedged on the hard shoulder between a lorry and crash
:07:25. > :07:29.barrier. We got out of the van and straightaway I could see flames in
:07:29. > :07:33.front, not coming from us and I don't think the car in front, but
:07:33. > :07:37.seemed about, I don't know, ten feet away, big flames. Fire,
:07:37. > :07:42.essentially there was fire. I can remember before I actually
:07:42. > :07:46.descended the embankment looking to my left the lorry was well alight.
:07:46. > :07:51.Looking to the right and the road surface was on fire, there had
:07:51. > :07:55.obviously been a fuel spill. last image of looking at the van I
:07:55. > :08:01.think was actually from the bottom of the embankment and looking up.
:08:01. > :08:05.The cab of the van, it had flames in it. On the other side of the the
:08:05. > :08:11.blazing lorry Roger Neno followed a young woman's cries for help.
:08:11. > :08:14.car was pinned under the jack- knifed lorry. I am thinking that
:08:14. > :08:22.fire is going to spread underneath this lorry and it won't take very
:08:22. > :08:27.long the way it's burning. I jumped over the front - the front door was
:08:27. > :08:31.slightly ajar at the top. I put the lever in and tried to open it, tpwu
:08:31. > :08:36.wouldn't move. I told her to move back and swung the iron at the
:08:36. > :08:42.window and I think on the fourth attempt it broke. So I went around
:08:42. > :08:47.the side, took most of the glass out, shy lean -- she leaned out and
:08:47. > :08:51.I pulled her out. I am trying to keep her calm, not panic, so not to
:08:51. > :08:56.panic her. But I am thinking, I am looking down at my coat and it's
:08:56. > :08:59.just raining and I am thinking oh, drizzle is all we need. But there's
:08:59. > :09:09.this really strong smell of fuel and there's fuel all over the floor.
:09:09. > :09:10.
:09:10. > :09:17.As I was doing this I saw the lady that was... The lady that was
:09:17. > :09:23.pinned by her legs under the back wheel of that car underneath the
:09:23. > :09:27.lorry. She was screaming "help me, get me out", obviously fearful she
:09:27. > :09:32.was going to lie there and burn, as well. With no chance of releasing
:09:32. > :09:37.her, Roger ran for help, returning with an offduty doctor and one of
:09:37. > :09:43.the firecrews. Coy see Roger -- -. I could see Roger going towards the
:09:43. > :09:46.car and there's a huge fireball behind. It just exploded and I just
:09:47. > :09:51.screamed at him, get out, get out. Because I thought everything was
:09:51. > :09:57.going to go up. Despite the fireball, the woman was saved.
:09:57. > :10:02.Roger and Ciara spent hours at the scene before heading home. The time
:10:02. > :10:07.between the Nenos stopping and the first emergency services arriving
:10:07. > :10:13.took about the time it's taken you to watch this film. 51 people were
:10:13. > :10:16.injured in the crash, seven died. The The sights and sounds of that
:10:16. > :10:20.night will live with the people involved for the rest of their
:10:20. > :10:24.lives. I am sitting here talking about
:10:24. > :10:32.that and those people who have lost family members, there's people who
:10:32. > :10:35.have been permanently injured and their lives are changed forever.
:10:35. > :10:45.You know, I don't even have a scratch. It just doesn't make any
:10:45. > :10:58.
:10:58. > :11:00.sense. The police investigation into the
:11:01. > :11:03.crash is continuing. But one major line of inquiry is looking at
:11:03. > :11:05.whether smoke from a firework display held right here may have
:11:05. > :11:07.been a contributing factor. Scott Ellis has been looking at whether
:11:07. > :11:10.tighter regulation is needed to help prevent smoke from firework
:11:10. > :11:12.displays drifting into roads. It was billed as a dazzling night
:11:12. > :11:17.of family fun but within 48 hours this event was at the centre of a
:11:17. > :11:21.police criminal investigation. do believe that whilst there was
:11:21. > :11:26.fog and it was difficult conditions in the area, that actually from
:11:26. > :11:30.witness evidence that there was very significant smoke across the
:11:30. > :11:34.carriageway, that in effect, caused a bank, similar to a fog bank which
:11:34. > :11:39.was very distracting and difficult to drive through. Ten days on, the
:11:39. > :11:44.question remains unanswered. Did a fireworks display at Taunton Rugby
:11:44. > :11:48.Club cause or contribute to Britain's worst motorway crash for
:11:48. > :11:52.20 years? We wanted to talk to experts from the fireworks industry
:11:52. > :11:56.and those caught up in the tragedy. We found conflicting eyewitness
:11:56. > :12:03.accounts. I can't believe you can have a
:12:03. > :12:08.fireworks display so close to a motorway. It was extremely foggy.
:12:08. > :12:12.So, you couldn't have - wouldn't be able to tell if there was smoke.
:12:12. > :12:18.The firework displace was somewhere over there and I was over there and
:12:18. > :12:24.the accident happened just almost parallel - almost behind where the
:12:24. > :12:34.rugby post is. Bev Davies heard the fireworks go off, it took her and
:12:34. > :12:35.
:12:35. > :12:40.her horses by surprise so she went I can't believe it and ran down to
:12:40. > :12:45.the entrance to the Rugby Club as fast as they could, to ask them to
:12:45. > :12:50.stop the display to get my horses While she was there, she asked
:12:50. > :12:53.about the question of safety. I said you can't believe they were
:12:54. > :12:57.having a firework display so near to a motorway. It was obviously so
:12:57. > :13:00.bright and glaring I couldn't see how it could not be anything other
:13:01. > :13:04.than a distraction to those driving past.
:13:04. > :13:07.Fireworks causing a distraction and worries about the smoke. They are
:13:07. > :13:13.all issues that have worried the public since the crash and they are
:13:13. > :13:17.the ones that the police are examining. Tom Smith takes an
:13:17. > :13:21.active interest. He is a pyrotech necks consex ant.
:13:21. > :13:26.This is the Rugby Club. This is where the fireworks came from. This
:13:26. > :13:30.is the motorway and this is where the accident site was.
:13:30. > :13:35.Tom estimates that the fireworks were 200m from the carriageway.
:13:35. > :13:40.Here are the lower level fireworks, then higher up in the picture, the
:13:40. > :13:45.shells bursting over the top. Are they producing to you, what
:13:45. > :13:50.looks like a lot of smoke? It is the amount of smoke that I pect to
:13:51. > :13:55.see from a display of that size. There is obviously smoke, but it is
:13:55. > :13:59.not excessive. We will see it drift down wind, but we didn't know where
:13:59. > :14:02.that was. By 8.00pm, the local records
:14:02. > :14:06.suggested that the wind was light and variable.
:14:06. > :14:08.If it is south-westerly, the smoke produced from this area would
:14:08. > :14:13.travel in this direction, that is parallel to the motorway, rather
:14:13. > :14:18.than heading to the motorway. Regardless of direction, what would
:14:18. > :14:22.happen to the smoke once it is travelling 200m? It is only a
:14:22. > :14:28.finite amount of smoke. You can't have it both thick and then very
:14:28. > :14:33.deep if it is over an extensive portion of the motorway, by
:14:33. > :14:38.necessity it must have been dilute and relatively thin.
:14:38. > :14:43.We decided to take a much closer look at the smoke again rated by
:14:43. > :14:47.the fireworks. Alan Christie is helping us. He
:14:47. > :14:50.detonates 16 tonnes of fireworks every year. He is the man who puts
:14:50. > :14:54.the bang noose the Bristol Balloon Fiesta.
:14:54. > :15:00.I have brought along a small selection of the typical things you
:15:01. > :15:07.would find on a professional firework display a conical fountain,
:15:07. > :15:12.a Roman candle battery. 56 shots. One views by 36 seconds.
:15:12. > :15:16.Close up, this firework smoke appeared to be fine. It is almost
:15:16. > :15:22.like an aerosol spray. The Met Office told us that smoke can cause
:15:22. > :15:28.mist or fog to form in damp air. It can also thicken them up, but
:15:28. > :15:32.that's not what Alan's found from his experience with fireworks.
:15:32. > :15:38.Well the smoke generate fog or mist? No, not a chance, really. A
:15:38. > :15:42.fog or mist is a natural element. You know, the weather conditions,
:15:42. > :15:47.low pressure can help to hold the smoke on the floor, but it normally,
:15:47. > :15:50.if the wind is not blowing far, you see it dissipate over four or five
:15:50. > :15:54.minutes. Well, the fireworks are set up
:15:54. > :15:58.there now, what we are going to do is to have a look at one large
:15:58. > :16:04.firework going off, producing the smoke and heading across the road
:16:04. > :16:08.that we are about to drive down to see how thick the smoke can be.
:16:08. > :16:14.As you can see, we have the firework going off there. The smoke
:16:14. > :16:20.is being blown across the road here. It is thick smoke and certainly it
:16:20. > :16:27.doesn't help to have the head lamps on it, it is hard to see ahead.
:16:27. > :16:31.This experiment on a farmer's track is far from scientific, in way does
:16:31. > :16:35.it replicate the display of November the 4th. Firework smoke
:16:35. > :16:38.can reduce visibility, but is that what happened on the night? Those
:16:38. > :16:43.at the display offer differing upon -- opinions.
:16:43. > :16:47.The display was big, supposedly the biggest in Somerset. There was a
:16:47. > :16:51.lot of smoke created. The display ran for 15 minute, after, the smoke
:16:51. > :16:55.stayed around for a long time. You could not see some parts of the
:16:55. > :16:59.grass on the pitch. There was no smoke. Literally I walked over
:16:59. > :17:04.after the fireworks, there was no smoke it was just fog. Thick fog.
:17:04. > :17:09.It was not drifting at all. It was holding fast, from what I
:17:09. > :17:13.understand. So I don't think it cleared quickly at all. The wind
:17:13. > :17:17.was blowing towards me, so effectively from where I was stood,
:17:17. > :17:22.by the Grandstand, that is away from the motorway.
:17:22. > :17:25.Two opposing accounts, the police no doubt have many more point of
:17:25. > :17:31.views. Alan doubts smoke was an issue, but
:17:31. > :17:38.thinks that the display itself had the potential to distract drivers.
:17:38. > :17:44.Would you have done it 2 or 300 to the M5? That is perhaps a little
:17:44. > :17:48.too close. 6 or 600 metres away, that is not a problem, but not
:17:48. > :17:53.within 100m. So, the chances are you may not
:17:53. > :17:56.have run a show there? Yes. It is a bold admission, he would
:17:56. > :18:00.not have run a display at the Taunton Rugby Club.
:18:00. > :18:06.The report suggested that the fireworks finished ten minutes
:18:06. > :18:12.before the crash muchment -- the police will have the final word.
:18:12. > :18:16.The police have had00 words of line up for the inquiry. A camera may
:18:16. > :18:19.hold vital clues. Smoke and fireworks are a significant part of
:18:19. > :18:23.the investigation, the fawn Taunton is working closely with the Avon &
:18:23. > :18:29.Somerset Police. I was going to an event in
:18:29. > :18:35.Taunton... We joined the MP of the area Tessa Munt on the bridge where
:18:35. > :18:40.many have come to mourn. She tue is an eyewitness, driving -- she too
:18:40. > :18:43.is an eyewitness, driving south. The heat was so intense. Its with
:18:43. > :18:49.burning hot. We were all those lanes away.
:18:49. > :18:53.She was not aware of smoke or fireworks. On reflection feels
:18:53. > :18:57.sympathy for the event organisers. If I were a part of the Taunton
:18:57. > :19:02.Rugby Club I would feel awful. It must be so stressful for the people
:19:02. > :19:07.involved in organising this. So often they are for charity. They
:19:07. > :19:11.are events to raise money for good causes. I guess that must just feel
:19:11. > :19:16.terrible. It will take many weeks for the
:19:16. > :19:20.police to reach their conclusions but already the issue of fireworks
:19:20. > :19:25.safety is under scrutiny once again. Obviously if the investigation
:19:25. > :19:29.shows that smoke from the firework display was an issue, it is
:19:29. > :19:33.something to look at very seriously and the BPA would incorporate
:19:33. > :19:37.information about that in their training courses.
:19:37. > :19:40.We don't want to react too quickly to what we don't really know about
:19:40. > :19:46.yet. All of these investigations, like
:19:46. > :19:49.yours, will no doubt add to the picture.
:19:49. > :19:59.Scot Ellis on the events of November the 4th, a night that
:19:59. > :20:00.
:20:00. > :20:03.changed the lives of so many. Next year, Gloucester holds
:20:03. > :20:08.Paralympic Games, yes, really, the market town of Chipping Campden
:20:08. > :20:18.holds the Games every year and claims to the birthplace of the
:20:18. > :20:21.
:20:21. > :20:28.modern Olympic movement. Here is our history man.
:20:28. > :20:33.It may sound a preposterous claim, that the modern Olympic movement
:20:33. > :20:39.began here in Chipping Campden, but it is actually true! If you don't
:20:39. > :20:46.believe me, then perhaps you will be convinced by this... When London
:20:46. > :20:54.made its successful bid, the 2012 Games, they were only too keen to
:20:54. > :20:58.acknowledge that Chipping Campden connection.
:20:58. > :21:02.While most people in the West Country have never heard of them,
:21:02. > :21:08.the Cotswold Olympicks have drawn television crews from around the
:21:08. > :21:13.world to see the bizarre sports. Some of them, little changed, from
:21:13. > :21:18.those that entertained crowds in Shakespeare's time.
:21:18. > :21:22.I just had to have a go, it was time to get prepared.
:21:22. > :21:26.I gather that state-of-the-art equipment is necessary for the
:21:26. > :21:36.Modern Olympics athlete. Well, this is state-of-the-art from the
:21:36. > :21:36.
:21:36. > :21:42.Cotswold Olympicks. Well, I may not have all of the
:21:42. > :21:48.attributes for London 2012, but for Chipping Campden, 2011, I think I'm
:21:48. > :21:53.fairly well equipped. It was on this hillside just north
:21:53. > :22:00.of the town that organised sporting games were first held nearly 400
:22:00. > :22:05.years ago. It was a Cambridge-educated lawyer,
:22:05. > :22:10.Robert Dover whose vision it was to bring sporting ideals from the
:22:10. > :22:15.original Greek application to the natural amphitheatre in rural
:22:15. > :22:21.Gloucester. I declare my Games for 2011, open!
:22:21. > :22:26.APPLAUSE The current organiser of the
:22:26. > :22:31.Cotswold Olympicks is local stonemason Graham Greenall. So, who
:22:31. > :22:35.was this mysterious Robert Dover who founded the Games? It is
:22:35. > :22:41.difficult to know exactly who he was, but he was certain a lawyer.
:22:41. > :22:44.He turned up in the area about 1611. He had relatives here. Somehow he
:22:44. > :22:50.managed to take over the existing festival, which had been going on
:22:50. > :22:55.for centuries and to turn it into this first Modern Olympics.
:22:55. > :22:59.Contemporary reports say that Robert Dover was a jovial, kindly
:22:59. > :23:05.character. His version of the Olympics didn't concentrate too
:23:05. > :23:11.much on leet sporting achievement. His idea was to adapt the Olympics
:23:11. > :23:17.ideal. Prizes were awarded to the winners, but the main focus
:23:17. > :23:23.provided entertainment for the public.
:23:23. > :23:28.This was favoured by the puritanists -- this was not
:23:28. > :23:34.favourored by the purists of the day.
:23:34. > :23:39.Today, it is still good cleanish, sporting fun! Where did they get
:23:39. > :23:45.the buckets? That is cheating!? That is not cheating, that is
:23:45. > :23:50.tactics. The rules are almost non- existent. I don't think we have
:23:50. > :23:56.disqualified anybody! The fun and games went on more or lesstownously
:23:56. > :23:59.for 200 years. By the mid-1800s they were drawing massive crowds
:23:59. > :24:09.from across the Midlands, but to the Victorians everyone enjoying
:24:09. > :24:10.
:24:10. > :24:15.themselves was too much! Concerns about the loose morals of the
:24:15. > :24:20.crowds flocking to the games were voiced by the local vicar, a
:24:20. > :24:24.certain Canon Borne. The church took over the land and the Games
:24:24. > :24:32.were banned. So, this is it? Yes, this is the
:24:32. > :24:39.grave of George Drinkwater Borne, he was the Rector here.
:24:39. > :24:43.He was the villain of the games to close them down? Yes, but by all
:24:43. > :24:47.accounts, the games had become lawless with a lot of people, maybe
:24:47. > :24:52.30,000 people coming. It is referred to by a later writer as
:24:52. > :24:56.the scum of the Earth, people coming from all points between
:24:56. > :25:00.Birmingham and Oxford to spend the whole week here.
:25:00. > :25:04.It must have been chaos, terrorising the neighbourhood?
:25:04. > :25:08.think so. People did not feel safe in their houses. There was no
:25:08. > :25:12.police of course, you have to think of the Notting Hill Carnival but
:25:12. > :25:18.without the Police Force. So maybe he was a touch of a
:25:18. > :25:21.villain at all? I don't think so. He was a young man, trying to do
:25:21. > :25:26.his best on getting the best from all sides.
:25:27. > :25:34.It is not like that now? Do you go yourself? I have not been so far.
:25:34. > :25:39.I have never ventured out. If I want shin-kicking I go to a sin yod.
:25:39. > :25:44.Bizarre as it may seem, shin kicking does appeal to some people.
:25:45. > :25:50.It is certainly the high light of the Olympics of Chipping Campden.
:25:50. > :25:55.This is one of the original games from Robert Dover's time. I am
:25:55. > :26:00.worried, health and safety does not seem to have changed much since
:26:00. > :26:03.Dover's day. Does it hurt a lot? A lot, yeah.
:26:03. > :26:11.Especially when they miss. When they hit the sides by accident.
:26:11. > :26:17.That can kill. Really?! Ready? Kick! This really
:26:17. > :26:23.is not for the faint-hearted, is it? Kicking only, boys.
:26:23. > :26:33.I think that I will whimp out! They are tiring, I think, look at them!
:26:33. > :26:36.
:26:36. > :26:41.They are exhausted. That's the crudest sport I think I
:26:41. > :26:46.have ever seen. Can I have a look at your wounds?
:26:46. > :26:49.He doesn't draw blood, did he? Now for the final. Here the rules do
:26:49. > :26:55.matter. Remember, kicking below the knee.
:26:55. > :27:05.The judges are sticklers, the old English expression forum pyres
:27:05. > :27:10.
:27:10. > :27:17.scrutinising fair play. Take your shoes off! That's a win.
:27:17. > :27:22.Well, if anyone deserves Olympic gold, it is these guys. I have no
:27:22. > :27:25.idea how they are still standing. What is it lick to be the world
:27:25. > :27:29.champion? Really good! But, also really painful.
:27:29. > :27:37.You are a natural! Don't say that, I'm not doing it again.
:27:37. > :27:41.So, with the spirit of Robert Dover presiding, 2012 will see the 400th
:27:41. > :27:47.anniversary of his Cotswold Olympicks. And perhaps London 2012
:27:47. > :27:57.could take tips on how to stage a closing ceremony. Here everyone
:27:57. > :28:01.
:28:01. > :28:06.gets to carry the Olympics flame and it is quite a spectacle.
:28:06. > :28:16.This is England at its very best. If 2012 can repeat the experience
:28:16. > :28:16.
:28:16. > :28:20.of tonight then it's going to be a roaring success! Well,
:28:20. > :28:27.unfortunately, we have reached our closing ceremony. You can keep in
:28:27. > :28:32.touch with what we are up to on both Facebook and Twitter.
:28:32. > :28:36.Next week we are back on the Olympics trail. Meeting a beach
:28:36. > :28:41.volley ball team based in a city without a beach. Also, asking why
:28:41. > :28:45.the Government is cutting subsidies for solar power. We are
:28:45. > :28:49.investigating a Somerset businessman, who promised his
