There was a hushed, respectful, gently moving interlude as photos of the victims was displayed on the giant screen, a pause for breath amid the frantic festivities.

It was a solemn moment to remember those killed in the 7/7 attacks on London – which took place just a day after the Olympic Games were awarded to the city.
