The world looks to Land’s End as Olympic spirit takes light across Britain
Thousands of people lined the route as the eyes of the world fell on Land’s End to witness the remarkable start of Britain’s Olympic Torch Relay.
Triple gold medallist Ben Ainslie – who grew up and learned to sail in Cornwall – took the honours by carrying the first Torch, lit from the Olympic Flame which was flown in by helicopter from RNAS Culdrose.
Huge crowds turned out despite the early start to watch the acclaimed yachtsman start the Olympic Torch Relay at 7.00am on a brisk but clear morning.
