July 27th, London's Olympic Stadium. Usually one of the most tightly guarded secrets is who will light the cauldron for the games. Currently the betting favorite is 5 time gold medalist rower Steve Redgrave. I've included some of the other notables, as found on Ladbroke's. Steve Redgrave3-2, Kelly Holmes 8-1, Daley Thompson 17-1, Sebastian Coe 21-1, The Reigning Monarch (at the time) 26-1, David Beckham 26-1, David Cameron 41-1, Prince William and/or Kate Middleton 51-1, Linford Christie 67-1, Roger Bannister 67-1, Lennox Lewis 67-1, Jonathan Edwards 67-1, Tim Henman 101-1, Sir Bob Geldof 101-1, Steve Ovett 101-1, Andy Murray 101-1, Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards 501-1. I was thinking Bannister might be good odds, but he will be 83 at the time of the Olympics...
