本周末， 英国终于迎来了奥运的圣火。英国境内的火炬接力第一站将是位于Cornwall 郡的一个叫 Lands End 的地方。

It's almost here, the Olympic flame is on its way to the UK from Greece.

A special gold-colour plane named Firefly will be carrying the flame to an airbase in Cornwall to begin its journey around the British Isles.

Over the next 70 days, the Olympic torch will travel to more than one thousand towns and cities right across the UK.

Let us take you on a special journey of discovery of the UK as we follow the torch.
