Just watched that and thought Victoria Pendleton is proper gorgeous!
Agreed!! Jess Ennis is too!
Brilliant!
Oh my.
Oh Lizzie...
Love it.
Love the volunteers as the band as well! 🙂
Oh, and is it just me, or are the British female sportsfolk awfully lovely overall? 😉
Have to agree with you there CHF.
This should have been the closing ceremony.
On a more cynical note, athletes; if you're in this video you're going to be minted.
Nice to see Zoe Smith was also included. I didn't believe there has been a single mention of her or weightlifting during the entire games. She has a nice smile, hadn't realised she was only eighteen, she came 12th with a new british record google tells me.
Should have just played that at the closing ceremony! Loved it.

There was a good documentary about here before the games started. And tbf, i've heard her mentioned a few times. Linekar interviewed her too iirc.
She was all over the news for a couple of days too, appearance on BBC Breakfast as well IIRC
They had a decent bit on her performance and Reggie Yates spent the day of her competition with her and her family.
Great bit of free advertising for Addidas too! 😆
I like bowler hats on women 8)
Pendleton in a Bowler = just a bit foxy.
much better than out of tune singers.
that makes my balls ache, and not in a good way
YowChowb ought to introduce a VHS style feature where the most popular/rewound parts of a particular vid start to get a bit scratchy a la Basic Instinct from the video shop. I'm guessing you'd hardly be able to see Vicky in this vid anymore (nowt to do with me).
i knew who everyone was apart from the five women together - anyone know?
Agreed!! Jess Ennis is too!
+1, she reminds me of Rashida Jones. This is a good thing 🙂
Capjon, want to fill in some blanks as I only knew a couple.
Beckham - Hoy - Pendleton - Smith - Ennis - Volunteers - Ennis - Volunteers - Pete Reed (i think - Pendleton - Smith - five women?? - Trott - Reed - Armitstead + ?? - Pendleton - Ennis - Smith - Iduwo - Reed - five women?? - Ennis - five women - volunteers - Brownlee brothers - Ennis - bloke on drums - Iduwo - Pendleton + Trott etc
and the one on the BMX....
At least I got Ennis, Trott and Pendletears right.
Oh to be the meat in a PendletEnnis sandwich...
*crosses legs, thinks calming thoughts*
and it's a lot less "i-want-to-punch-someone" inducing than the yanks swimming team.....
although there are other ways of keeping the female septics from singing...
(you may need to use a proxy)
I think the five women may be hockey players.
I reckon they might be the synchro swimmers: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/2012/countries/great-britain/athletes?sports=synchronised-swimming&gender=w&filter=Filter&isOneToWatch=0&isMedallist=0
...Reggie Yates spent the day of her competition with her and her family...
That must have seemed like a very long day
there's music in this video, i've watched it 70 times and haven't heard it once.....
