Petition Action

Play the London 2012 Olympics on the BBC in its entirety as if it was live.

Petition Details

To get us through national lock down from Coronavirus, please give us some joy and nostalgia by playing the entirety of the London 2012 Olympics as if it were live, starting with the opening ceremony on Friday 23rd March. Full access to all events across the red button and online would be fantastic!

Additional Information

I’m sure we could all do with a smile, a cry and some happy memories. Plus it’s free binge tv for those who can’t afford Netflix and it would help support bbc employees currently without work due to cancelled productions.
