Sorry, you must enable Javascript to display media contentStarring Hugh Bonneville, Jessica Hynes, Amelia Bullmore, Olivia Colman, Vincent Franklin and Karl Theobald, and narrated by David Tennant. Twenty Twelve is a new six-part comic documentary series about the people paddling hard beneath the water to make the Olympics happen in London in 2012. You’re organising the Biggest Show on Earth. You’ve got £9bn to spend and plenty of time before the deadline. What can possibly go wrong?
Follow the deliverance team as they do their level best to get to the end of the day, the end of the week - and, ideally - the end of the Olympics without all the wheels coming off at once. -

Sorry, you must enable Javascript to display media contentFavourite saying: "So... no. Basically, it's all good."
Ian is a man who has got where he has because of his unique capacity to stay calm under pressure. Ian has the ability to remain relentlessly positive even when all evidence points in the opposite direction. -
Siobhan Sharpe, Head of Brand AKA Jessica Hynes

Siobhan was born in Harpenden but thinks she's American.
Getting the Olympic account at Twenty Twelve's PR company Perfect Curve is the biggest thing that's ever happened to Siobhan, and certainly bigger than what is likely to happen to her career afterwards. -

Nick "I Can't Allow It" Jowett is a plain speaking Yorkshire man and the Geoffrey Boycott of the accounting world. -
Kay Hope, Head of Sustainability AKA Amelia Bullmore
Sorry, you must enable Javascript to display media contentFavourite saying: "Sustainability is not the same as Legacy."
Kay is tirelessly committed to the principle of embedding sustainability across all aspects of Twenty Twelve's delivery, which is particularly important given that no one seems to know exactly what sustainability is. -
Graham Hitchins, Head of Infrastructure AKA Karl Theobald
Sorry, you must enable Javascript to display media contentFavourite saying: "That's all fine. You mean this Friday?"
It will of course be a disaster for London and for Britain if the infrastructure for the Twenty Twelve games goes wrong. And that's where Graham Hitchins comes in. -
Sally Owen, PA to Ian Fletcher AKA Olivia Colman
Favourite saying: "That's fine, not a problem. I've already done it."
Sally is super-loyal, ultra-efficient, and hyper-protective of Ian, for the very good reason that she is in love with him.
