Myra Hindley shown in 2012 olympic montage video

[Dynamicnanny]

Hardly encourages visitors to England

It's gross and insensitive and need never have been used. Was that whole clip meant to represent am image of Great Britain?
Who next, Ian Huntley, why not it's art?!

which trendy, up their own arse, its art dahling, brainless wanker decided THIS was a good idea?

words just fail one at times

someone in the editing suite will get their jotters over this.

socttishmummy - am loving your turns of phrase today

Well, it's hardly the 'fault' of 'someone in the editing suite'. They wouldn't choose the images. I think this is being rather overhyped. It was an image of an artwork (which you may or may not think is a good artwork) rather than a photo of Hindley. You may well think it was a mistake to include this particular image in the montage, but it has never caused controversy before and it was a tiny part of a very short film about London.

i'm trying to imagine what Boris Johnson looks like when he's "deeply disturbed"

Who on earth thought an image of a child killer would be suitable for anything?

And the painting is made from children's hand prints?

Who the fuck thought that up? 'Art' my arse.

you think at one point in composition someone might have piped up "ach look who it is"

not rocket science to see it might be controversial

i imagine wholly unintentional too

and no i don't think it will damage London

I imagine wholly intentional!

they'll have Gary GLitter singing at the opening ceremony next

unintentional,i mean the intent to upset. the image has been defaced before at RA.so yes is known to be controversial, RA members resigned over it in protest
