Can you honestly say that the coca cola and Samsung buses really spoiled the Olympic torch relay? I was more interested in the fella who was holding the torch who honestly looked like he was going to explode with pride.Again without the sponsors these guys wouldn't have had the opportunity to do that as the relay simply wouldn't have happened like it has
Quite, they went past me a good 5 minutes before the torch did.
Can you imagine if Coronation Street got the torch instead of Eastenders, it would have been wal to wall adverts and they would have held it up for a mid-torch ad break
Love the last one....pretty well sums up British culture these days.
First one removed already.
Like it or not the Olmypics could not Be hosted in the fashion they will be without these major sponsors.They raised near on 1 billion -I think they are entitled to a bit of branding hear and there.

The sponsors being there wasn't the thing that was annoying. After all, what is so bad about them giving out some free stuff or driving through on a big lorry? The thing that annoyed me was that the BBC drove too close to the torch bearer so you only got to see him for 3 seconds. That made getting a picture very difficult.
