Red ring.....

Ouch.

For clarity the colours of the olympic rings are:

blue, yellow, black, green, and red

Not shiny flaming metal colour as Danny Boyle would have you believe.

So Red Rain - peter Gabrile

I think there is a Coldplay song that Julie will suggest foer Yellow

Pale Blue Eyes - Velvet Underground

etcetera

  13. Re wee Vic covering next week .. I'm intrigued about a fun runner suddenly becoming a subject matter expert .. or was there an open e-mail circulated round the whole of the BEEB calling for applications for aspiring Sports Commentators for events others would rather avoid.

    What is it that gives these "luvvies" such a high all the time?
