Olympian Hammerettes
The Government has controversially doubled the budget for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2012 Olympics to £80 million. Apparently David Cameron saw the original plans and authorised an extra £41 million. A strange decision in this age of austerity and surely a waste of money when the answer lies in E13. Couldn't we just get Jeremy Nicholas and the reformed Hammerettes to do it instead? If The Kids Are United, Bubbles and Twist and Shout would surely get the Games off to a rousing start...

With the Cockney Rejects kicking things off with Bubbles, War on the Terraces, Oi Oi Oi etc.
After each event Jeremy should read out the medal table: "We go above Estonia, we go above Cuba..."
And maybe Hi Ho Silver Lining for Nigel...
