Anyone catch that programme SPRINT on channel 4 last night? It followed four young GB 100m hopefuls through the last two years. Looks like Simeon Williams rather than Craig Pickering will be our best hope for any medals, although they're both still well off the pace of the big boys Powell and Gaye. |

Can we edit the thread title to 'the Olympic drug cheats thread'. I imagine that will be the main talking point. |

jamie hewlett is rubbish - he was all disgruntled about the costume and set design for the monkey opera, and yet seemingly happy with the tank girl movie. hhhm, would fuk officially endorse the games? i'm not sure, but if it did i'm sure it wouldn't be fashion uk fashion. |

I meant the thread is endorsed by fuk as I got permission to start it from a mod who usually hates new threads (and so andymakesglasses doesn't bump Greece 2004 thread and delete this one) |
