The BBC has just released its trail and titles sequence for the Olympic Games. Watch the 60 seconds film which transforms the landscape of the United Kingdom into a giant sporting arena and features a BMX rider preparing at the edge of a cliff, track cyclists racing around quarries and sprinters and gymnasts going through their paces on streets:

Ouch, I wanted to be impressed, but I felt like I was watching a trailer for a Pixar movie.
