Interesting to hear Danny Boyle comment on his Oly opening ceremony:

"It is a late call for our nation, I think, because we are learning our new place in the world. 100 years ago we were everything but there’s a change. You have to learn your place in the world. And that’s a good thing."


Not sure, as a Briton, you would be cheering the last lines of the quote.
