Not sure why a country with a long history and a rich culture (highly debatable), would encapsulate all they have to offer in the form of a bus, with occupants that included an aging soccer star, a past prime rock star and possibly the sister of a has been boxer, Lennox Lewis (was it?).

And what was with the assorted people with the brollies? Was the Olympic Ministry trying to signify that its difficult to catch a bus when it rains in London? And what about the famed gentlemanly behaviour of the British, why were they breaking queue and trying to board the bus through the windows?

I guess i’m old or a cultural philistine or both!, but i think i prefer censorship
