Strange that the French commentary comes first. I think it's something to do with the french resurrection of the modern olympics, so this is their pound of flesh. I was at the Technical Rehearsal on wednesday night and the big screens showed the flag raising sequence with big letter superimposed " Not For Transmission". I wondered if the PC brigade were going to cut it out of last nights performance. I'm glad they didn't. BTW The Tor in real life is a lot steeper than it looked on the telly!
