Actually, the French succeeded - allowing demonstrations is more important than some poxy flame being kept alight.

please say this means the pathetics are cancelled?

waste of TV space.

They should have publically snuffed it out at the airport in a big ceremony and give the V to China.

Given the crap thats usually on television, what does it matter?

mehuk · 7 Apr 2008 at 12:18

because it'll probably cancel something important like - songs of praise, or gardeners world or countrywide

SB118 · 7 Apr 2008 at 12:18

Should've used the torch to light a couple of the chinese flags, let's see THAT get coverage

SB118 · 7 Apr 2008 at 12:19

/ignore, fat fingers!

Cosimo · 7 Apr 2008 at 12:19

I thought that was being pulled?

If not

Fast forward 4 years and it'll be protests about occupying Afganistan

I'm sure that mad Irish priest will be on hand to protest about something or other

This looks like a French success to me ...

Here here!

The Olympics is the biggest waste of the tax payers' money I can think of.
I loathe everything to do with it, and the fact that the torch was extinguished makes me think:

WELL DONE YOU FRENCHIES!

China should get a big fat FO from everyone.

French failed again
