I love how, during the opening video, there was a point
where they played a fragment of The Sex Pistol's
Anarchy in the UK.
Music on. "God save the queen". Music quickly cut off.
Spoiler For those who don't get it, the next line gones:
"The fascist regime" |

It's a tradition to keep it a secret untill the moment arrives. But's it's almost always a sportsman (only exception I can remember is when crownprince Haakon of Norway skijumped down a hill during the 1994 olympics to light the fire), so I wouldn't count on it beeing the queen.
Besides, she had her moment just now. |

He never jumped down the hill himself. That would be suicide.

Good point
On a related note, it would have been cooler if the actual queen jumped in a parachute. Shure, there is a 50% chanche she would pass away in the atempt, but hey, that's showbiss.

And it doesn't look like it's full of bogus, just like the Beijing one.
