Don't screw it up - we don't want any bad press from you landing on the torch and burning your school to the ground (although that would be cool).

Yea, remember, these days, filming anything makes you a suspect!  Filming it from the air with a radio controlled plane, now.... that is terrorism!

Go home, carry on, work, watch TV adverts, consume, obey, be a good citizen, your country has only removed your freedom and liberties temporarily in order to fight terrorists.
