Special director's cut version of Danny Boyle's extraordinary Olympic opening ceremony from 2012, with extended highlights including unforgettable moments like 'Her Majesty' parachuting into the stadium with James Bond; Rowan Atkinson performing with the London Symphony Orchestra with comic results; David Beckham driving a speedboat while helping along the Olympic flame; live performances by the likes of Sir Paul McCartney, Emeli Sande and the Arctic Monkeys; the lighting of the cauldron; and the best moments from the athletes' parade.

Seven years after the announcement that the 2012 Olympic Games were to be held in London, the moment has finally arrived. One billion people are expected to be watching worldwide as an 80,000 capacity crowd fills the purpose-built stadium in the East End for the official start of the 30th Olympiad.

This archive-driven film gives audiences a glimpse of the Olympic Games held in Paris a century ago and marks the 100th anniversary of the Games returning to the French capital. The VIII Olympiad showcased the grandeur of the opening ceremony and looked at the challenges faced in organising the event. The beautifully shot footage (bearing in mind that it was 100 years ago) vividly captures the electrifying atmosphere of the Games, and the athletes and provides insights into the meticulous preparations. The 1924 Games were the first-ever to be shot on film, and the original film was digitised, restored, and re-edited with a modern audience in mind.
